🎯 Where Should I Start?
ⓘ About Adrian Miller
Reading this book makes you feel like a fly in the white house. Did you know that the white house was so hot during the summers that all presidents lived elsewhere during this period? This went on until air conditioning was installed in the 1950s. You will also read about Lincoln, who didn’t like eating much, and Barak Obama’s love for a garden filled with healthy foods. If you think that claims that black people make great cooks are baseless, the author will make you otherwise. It is no accident that the White House has hired mostly black women and men to take care of food matters. There are also some yummy recipes to try and see if you enjoy them like the country’s presidents did.
