Humor and Surprises in Mexican Cooking and Culture

Centro Cultural Ignacio Ramírez El Nigromante,
75 Calle del Doctor Ignacio Hernandez Macias
Presentation by Patricia Merrill Márquez
Patricia Merrill Márquez was born in San Miguel de Allende and grew up in a bi-cultural family. The influence of her Yankee father, a language teacher, and her Mexican mother, with a three generation history of cooking expertise initiated in the convents of San Miguel, resulted in the publication of The Buen Provecho Book, a delicious and humorous showcase of insight into Mexican cooking and culture through popular sayings and authentic recipes.
Although her formal training and professional practice has been — for over 47 years—in architecture, her current activities include running MexicanCookingVacation.com, real estate brokering and illustrating a rich reflection of a then atypical and often amusing dual heritage upbringing through her writing. She also finds time for family enjoyment which includes spending time with her two beautiful granddaughters.
