I agree we need to keep our traditions alive and well. And we need to pass on to the next generation a love for Portuguese food and, equally important, a love of cooking. They go hand in hand. I'm glad my book will help your family do that. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Victoria, thank you for your kind words.

(I'm a member.) I was sooo pleased and excited to see that. We were very lucky to grow up in a very small farming community out here in California filled with Portugese people, where most of us lived on dairy farms. The food our moms, <em>tias</em> and <em>avos</em> made was fabulous. Now that most of them are gone, it's so important to me to keep those traditional foods going, especially for my children and grandchildren. Your book is going to help do that. I know what everyone is going to get for Christmas gifts this year. :) Thank you. Hi David, I just read an article about you and a couple of your recipes on the Weight Watchers site. (I’m a member.)

All you and about 6 million other people have to do is storm the offices of Food Network and demand to see me on TV. I wish Portuguese food were higher on their list, but perhaps someday. In the meantime, I've done a lot of local TV, national radio, and will be on a national talk show this spring. Boo-<em>yah</em>! Ana, now you’re talking!

I found a link to your book in all places Men’s Health (Dec 2009) and I will be looking to buy a copy of your book. I am Azorean (from Terceira) and love Portuguese cooking. I have about 12 Portuguese cookbooks and I will be adding this one to the collection. Americans should know how simple and wonderful Portuguese cuisine is and tasty. How about a special on the FOOD NETWORK! Hello David. I found a link to your book in all places Men’s Health (Dec 2009) and I will be looking to buy a copy of your book.
