<p>Growing up in Scotland does not necessarily mean a daily diet of salmon and scallops, venison and haggis, whisky and shortbread! In this book, Helen Welsh shares her food and drink memories of good times, hard times, disasters and celebrations. Along the way she includes recipes and wisdom gathered from her many mentors &ndash; elegance in simplicity; generosity even in hard times; good conversation at table; and having a bit of fun on the journey. This is not a cookbook &ndash; it&rsquo;s a book about eating, drinking and living well, and sharing all this with others.</p>
