Adrienne Kane always loved food—from waiting by the oven for the sweet, crisp cookies she baked with her mother to fueling hours of work on her senior thesis with a satisfying tagliatelle. But just two weeks before her college graduation, Adrienne suffered a stroke that left her paralyzed on the entire right side of her body. Once a dancer and aspiring teacher, she was now dependent on her loved ones, embarrassed by her disability, and facing an identity crisis. The next several years were a blur of doctors, therapists, rehabilitation, and frustration. Until she got back in the kitchen..
It began with a stir, then progressed until she eventually learned to wield a chef’s knife with her left hand, and to brace vegetables with her right. Soon food became not only her sustenance and her solace, it became Adrienne’s calling. Through hard work, and a healthy portion of courage, she turned her culinary love into a career as a caterer, food writer, photographer, and recipe developer. .
Filled with tempting recipes and hard-won lessons, Cooking and Screaming is Adrienne’s heartfelt story of food, loss, work, and joy...and finding her identity through the most unlikely combination of ingredients..
