Oh neat! A year or so ago, I borrowed from my friend's shelf ... a book like that. Stories of how he grew up and his mamma and recipes from ... Dom DeLuise! It was sooooooooooo good. And since I watched old movies when young, I knew all the old "Stars" he would eat with and even had some of their recipes.
