Some books you read. This one you taste.
Fed on Purpose is a "foodoir" — part memoir, part family cookbook — built from the meals that made a man. It begins with a scrawny kid who was handed almost nothing and learned that the people who fed him were telling him he was worth feeding. He spent the rest of his life learning to feed back.
Here are the recipes that mattered: the loose meat sandwich that started it all, the pink cake he never got and finally made himself, the handshake dish where two worlds met in one pan. Each one is a door, and behind every door is somebody who set a plate down when it counted.
These aren't polished restaurant recipes. They're memories you can cook — softened at the edges, lit a little gold, set down on purpose. Make them your own way. That's the only rule, and it's the whole point.
The kid who got fed became the man who feeds. Pull up a chair.
