In Memory of The Silver Palate's Sheila Lukins

I remember going into this wonderful store in the late 70's. That extra touch with their clientele --- I was a fledgling chef in a hotel and Sheila was so encouraging. The expendible income from my paltry pay made its way onto their books.
But, what I learned! In that time, food was leaving a stodgy, formal image and was becoming fun, fresh, exciting; There they were, Lukins and Rosso, breaking ground and making this cuisine open to us all.
Ed, I love your writing and just now discovered you. Thank you for the tribute. I think in Sheila's honor, I will resurrect her carrot cake tonight!
