Ahh, Tonya ~ thanks so much for this excerpt & kudos on this well-earned gift of a book! I am reading it with great interest - Stein & Toklas are one of THE greatest quirky, beautiful love stories of the 20th Century.
Hélenè is such a great character. She's worthy of such a kitchen and Parisian household. Reminds me of the piece you chose for us on Edith Wharton. Much gratitude for the gentle reminder to return to her work, too.
wonderful to revisit this book! now I will need to read her "real" autobiography
