First You Break an Egg Rosanne Knorr

Alexia Reynolds is having a crisis. Of soul, weight, marriage, and fish. Her children have left the nest, her marriage is a blend of oil and water, and her confidence has sunk like a flattened soufflé. One night's crazy decision-a 'psychic break' according to her husband, but 'dinner' to Alexia-leads her to reflect on her life and love of food, glorious food. The irrepressible Alexia gravitates to cooking school in Paris, a job in Provence, and creating a more flavorful life. Will a smitten 'macaroni mogul' convince her to join him? Will her errant husband return to the mix? And can Alexia finally discover a recipe for happiness? Funny and human, crazy and real, First You Break an Egg celebrates the power of breaking out of your shell to start a fresh new life
