Food Maintains Traditions In Immigrant Families

Print More

Food can sometimes ease the transition of immigrants to a new country. 
And cooking traditional meals can connect generations of families to
their heritage.  Chef, teacher and author Lynne Christy Anderson joins
us on Vermont Edition to offer the memories and recipes she’s collected
in her new book, "Breaking Bread: Recipes and Stories from Immigrant
Kitchens." Plus we hear from some new Vermonters about their culinary
heritage.

Also in the program, the deep connections of Dr. Seuss to our region. The beloved
children’s writer went to Dartmouth under his given name, Theodor
Geisel. Dartmouth English Professor Donald Pease’s biography about the
school’s famous alum is, "Theodor SEUSS Geisel" and it’s part of Oxford
University Press’s Lives and Legacies series. He spoke with  VPR’s Jane
Lindholm about the book.

 

And as Vermont Edition prepares for our new season of Summer School, we listen back to a lesson from last in How To Run A 5K.
