The Piglet
This Already Genius Cookbook Is Also a Magical Time Machine
Piglet day 5 involves a bit of time travel—and some dang-good cookies.
Sure, food photographer and photo editor James Pomerantz isn't Tim Gunn, or Freddie Prinze, Jr.—but we'll let that slide (for now). Who he is is someone who can bake a mean chocolate-chip cookie, with the help of Rose Levy Beranbaum's Rose's Baking Basics, and wash it down with a rum old-fashioned from Coconuts & Collards, by Von Diaz.
Oh, and he's also someone who is transported through space and time by reading of one of these cookbooks. Wanna know which?
