Edna Lewis (1916-2006) wrote some of America's most resonant, lyrical, and significant cookbooks, including the now classic The Taste of Country Cooking. Lewis cooked and wrote as a means to explore her memories of childhood on a farm in Freetown, Virginia, a community first founded by black families freed from slavery. With such observations as "we would gather wild honey from the hollow of oak trees to go with the hot biscuits and pick wild strawberries to go with the heavy cream," she commemorated the seasonal richness of southern food. After living many years in New York City, where she became a chef and a political activist, she returned to the South and continued to write. Her reputation as a trailblazer in the revival of regional cooking and as a progenitor of the farm-to-table movement continues to grow. In this first-ever critical appreciation of Lewis's work, food-world stars gather to reveal their own encounters with Edna Lewis. Together they penetrate the mythology around Lewis and illuminate her legacy for a new generation.The essayists are Annemarie Ahearn, Mashama Bailey, Scott Alves Barton, Patricia E. Clark, Nathalie Dupree, John T. Edge, Megan Elias, John T. Hill (who provides iconic photographs of Lewis), Vivian Howard, Lily Kelting, Francis Lam, Jane Lear, Deborah Madison, Kim Severson, Ruth Lewis Smith, Toni Tipton-Martin, Michael W. Twitty, Alice Waters, Kevin West, Susan Rebecca White, Caroline Randall Williams, and Joe Yonan. Editor Sara B. Franklin provides an illuminating introduction to Lewis, and the volume closes graciously with afterwords by Lewis's sister, Ruth Lewis Smith, and niece, Nina Williams-Mbengue.

Great smell for the summer
Scent: Aquatic
Smells like a variety of citrus and a bit of the classic shower gel, really great scent for the summer and pairs well with colognes of citrus or fresh notes. Doesn't dry out skin and you'll still smell it for a good while on you after a couple of hours for me the scent last maybe 5-6 hours.

Nice refreshing seasonal body wash
Scent: Aquatic
Good fragrance body wash. I really do like cremos limited seasonal fragrances. This one is light and refreshing. Wish it would last a bit longer but overall does lather well and smells great while showering. A little goes a long way so I do appreciate that this bottle should last long. The viscosity of the liquid is easy to pour and suds up nicely with a loofah. Overall good value and would recommend.

Great smell and feel no cream after used .
Scent: Aquatic
I bought this for our son while he stays and visits our home, well he liked this so much he took it home. lol I guess he liked this more then the other scent of him s chemo at his house.
He did say he liked the smell and it’s a good size bottle. Said he don’t have to put a lot of cologne on because this smells so good and he feels really clean.
