Kate included a note for the recipient of these books (see below), which makes her like way cool. Judy, like Kate, is also a self-described "book worm", but has read only (I'm not making this up) 5! fiction books in her LIFETIME, four of which are by an author friend of hers. Minus Salt and The Devil in the White City, she could increase the amount of fiction she's read in her entire existence on Earth by 60%!
I'd recommend Salt to anyone; Mark Kurlansky does a fine job here. I guarantee you'll never look at table salt the same way again and you'll laugh during your next trip to Whole Foods when you see pink sea salt being sold for 6x the amount of a jar of Morton's.

-Profession: Educator (through Chemistry and other means)

-When speaking of your marriage (to a chemist), do you say that you have a lot of chemistry with your spouse?: No, I say he was my density...and destiny.
-Finish this Zen thought: I can only control my reactions...: But not the crap that goes in.
