Her palate has since expanded to the degree that she'll hork down anything from chili-smothered insects that pass for an exotic destination's local delicacies to a peanut found wedged between the cushions of a theater seat. From summer camp's unlimited Pop-Tarts to the post-coital breakfasts of a well-traveled actress-waitress and the frustrating payback of cooking for some finicky offspring of the author's own, "Dirty Sugar Cookies is an omnivorous, hilarious chronicle of culinary awakening.Halliday, Ayun is the author of 'Dirty Sugar Cookies Culinary Observations, Questionable Taste' with ISBN 9781580051507 and ISBN 1580051502.
