<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><i>One Sunday morning we were having brunch with some friends at a restaurant overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The discussion of favorite foods came up and someone asked our three-year old daughter, Shavonne, what were her favorite foods. Without hesitation she looked up, smiled and said, "Matzo balls and cornbread."<br> -TYREE (CORNBREAD)</i></p> <p>When Shavonne said her favorite foods were matzo balls and cornbread, I immediately knew it would make a great title for a book or play. Later, when we decided to write this book, we both agreed it would be the perfect title. If you think about it, it says everything about us.<br> -LES (MATZO BALLS)</p> <p>* * * </p> <p><i>Matzo Balls and Cornbread</i> is the recipe for a love story between two people from different backgrounds who made a life together: Les, a white Jewish man, and Tyree, an African-American woman.</p> <p>The story focuses on their family histories, experiences growing up, careers, meeting, married life, and the wonders of parenthood.</p> <p>It is a story of adventure that takes them to Hong Kong, Singapore, Paris, Cape Town, Jerusalem, Budapest, and Dublin.</p> <p>It is a story of their professional success, as they rise to levels they hadn't thought possible, including their experiences with historical events that occurred in Los Angeles and the nation.</p> <p>And it is a story told with humor that expresses the joy they had while learning about and embracing each other's history and cultures, while merging those differences into a life that celebrates both.</p> <p>But mostly, it is a love story.</p>
