“I grow old ... I grow old ... I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled. Shall I part my hair behind? Do I dare to eat a peach? I shall wear white flannel trousers, and walk upon the beach. I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each.”

So happy to have this show up in the mail yesterday.
Marcella fans will rejoice and I know cooks who have loved Ada Boni for years. The complete, historic version looks great. Can't wait to get into it.

A 16-year site favorite in which two minor-seeming things -- flaky sea salt and brown butter -- transform crispy treats from a "kid thing" to something so good it's hard to share with a kid -- or anyone. No matter where I take them, they never last 30 minutes.

Down Cemetery Road review – Emma Thompson is magnificent in this thriller from Slow Horses’ creator

The Oscar winner’s turn as a no-nonsense private investigator is a role model for women everywhere. She really shines alongside Ruth Wilson in this pacy, twisty thriller based on Mick Herron’s debut novel

My partner was driving home to Houghton, Michigan the day after that storm and saw that water from Lake Superior had been carried half a mile in from the shoreline and had frozen in the trees.
