Jwould have been Maurice Sendak’s 85th birthday, so let’s talk about food because Maurice loved food with a deep and abiding love. I asked his dear friend Toni, who knew him so very well, if she would share some of her delicious memories with us. So much as already been said about Maurice that I will only add that in addition to creating some of the most brilliant books the world has ever seen, he made it impossible for me to ever have a bowl of chicken soup with rice and not think about him and smile.Īs you may know, we lost him just about a year ago, and it’s still hard for me to believe he’s not out there, sitting at his kitchen table with his faithful German Shepherd at his feet. “Sprinkle once, sprinkle twice, sprinkle chicken soup with rice”….read the wonderful book by Maurice Sendak and then make this easy recipe for chicken soup with rice!Īmong the many amazing people I have been lucky enough to know, two of the most amazing are my friend Toni Markiet, and the extraordinary Maurice Sendak.
