MAINE SUNDAY TELEGRAM • February 20, 2022
Who among us hasn’t dreamed of quitting the rat race, retreating to a small town and looking after a couple of curious geese, a raft of mild-tempered ducks and a flock of charismatic chickens? For country-life bonus points, insert into this scene a companionable, adorable corgi. The queen and chronicler of this particular – and charmingly photogenic – farm and coop is Lisa Steele, author, blogger, television and social media presence, and newly minted cookbook writer. Steele’s latest book, her seventh, “The Fresh Eggs Daily Cookbook,” is out thismonth from Harper Horizon; her previous books concern how to keep backyard chickens and ducks.
