Yep, long time ago; and their cookbook Recipes for a Small Planet has some good things inside....great carrot cake recipe and yummy Ricotta Spinach Roll Ups.
There is another book by her - name is escaping me - that I read when in an anthropology class. Talks about how the allocation of land is what is causing hunger, not the lack of food in the world, very timely topic and well argued points Amy Grace
