I love the theory that Eleanor Roosevelt refused to let FDR fire their terrible chef simply because she hated his ass

Alright I’m farther than it looks like I am bc page 1 isn’t until after the 15-page intro and the last 100 pages are recipes and indexes. So I’m really on page 94/399. (Maybe I should switch to percentages if it bothers me this much)

Really enjoying this so far! I’ve gotten into a rhythm of reading a president or two before bed lol
