[FROM BOOKLADY COOKS] 

In this incredible cookbook, Guadalupe Rivera, daughter of Diego Rivera shares stories of life with Frida Kahlo - through menus, recipes, photographs and scenes of life at the Blue House in Coyoacán.

With beautiful, celebratory menus for each month of the year, this book invites us all to know a different side of Frida Kahlo.

“Living with Frida was an education in itself. I learned about cultural values I had been ignorant about until then. Frida would talk about Freud and psychoanalysis or García Lorca and poetry as easily as she spoke of painting and music. “
