kindle is offering this book for $1.99. i havent read it yet (i just bought it), but the author is also the founder of a festival also called lucky rice. the book contains family history and recipes. i saw many positive reviews on her amazon page for this book from famous chefs, so i figured it would be $1.99 well spent.... just thought i'd pass this on. i'm not sure how long the sale will last. the book in hardcover costs $25.
