Margaret has been cooking (by her own reckoning) for fifty-two years(!), a stretch that covers three children, a full career in publishing, and (at last count) four distinct waves of kitchen-equipment fashion, most of which she sat out. Writes about the things she actually uses - mixing bowls, baking sheets, a properly sharp peeler, the knife she's had since 1987 and has no intention of replacing. Unsentimental about anything that breaks. Partial to roast chicken, butter in any quantity, and recipes that fit on an index card.
