![]() ![]() At that time, Kristin was working as a writer in New York City. The prologue gives you a glimpse of Kristin’s life on the farm, but the story really started seven years prior. Whatever the reason, his was a story that I could not put down from the get-go. Maybe because I am a foodie, maybe because I love watching my husband cook, maybe because my daughter is a farmer and I appreciate the hard work involved in producing food, or maybe simply because this is a heartfelt story that is beautifully written. From selecting the diner ingredients, the sizzling of the pans, a drizzle of red wine reduction, to the beautiful colors of the plate placed before her, Kristin had me hooked. They way she describes her husband cooking is a rather seductive scene. In this story you are welcomed right away into Kristin’s life sitting right alongside her as she watches her husband Mark whip up dinner for the two of them. ![]() The Dirty Life: On Farming, Food, and Love by Kristin Kimball: A Book Review This is a true story told in memoir fashion that is full of heart, hope, and the satisfaction of a day’s hard work. I just finished reading the most enjoyable book – one that I so loved reading that I am recommending it to many, many of my friends. ![]()
