Translator, editor, photographer, artist, cook (and telecook) for friends. Old guy, kept all of my LPs and CDs. Also kept all of my cameras.
I block anyone who restricts replies.
Friday night at 56N. Want a meatball sub or a hot pastrami sandwich, but have access to neither.

The joys of EU shopping.

Live in DK. Trying to buy an old (NL) book in English translation.

Looked at the usual DK booksellers, the various Amazons.

A quick search for indie bookshops found an IE store that sold it to me including shipping for 30% less.

Linguine!
Dry-cured bacon from a local butcher (peppered outside, let's just call it pancetta), blanched snow peas, blanched broccoli flowerets, slivers of carrot (potato peeler), thin slices of mushroom. White wine, cream, piri-piri, garlic. Lotsa pepper. Parmeggiano.
