Bite by Bite: Nourishments and Jamborees | Aimee Nezhukumatathil

pick

I used to try to read aloud to my pet house rabbit and, though she was my little soul-twin in many ways, she was decidedly uninterested; she preferred a cozy silence.

Bite by Bite will go down in personal memory as the first book I read aloud to my pup. He *loved* it. We started with Nezhukumatathil‘s essay on potatoes. Jett is now my “best spud.” 🥔 He also loved the chapter on maple syrup. As such, I‘m unable to rate this book objectively.

Soubhiville I love this review so much. ❤️🐶 1d

monalyisha Truly, though, I love Aimee‘s writing. My favorite essays were: Mango, Lumpia, Jackfruit, Strawberry, Potato (even putting my puppy‘s opinion aside), Vanilla, & Watermelon. I‘m left with the desperate need to try mangosteens, paw paws, & apple bananas. I also need to do more research about “waffle-frolicks” (is this the type of celebration I need for my 40th birthday?). And I needed the tagged book, co-written with Ross Gay, so badly I bought it.

Lace & Pyrite: Letters from Two Gardens

JamieArc ABSOLUTELY DO THAT FOR YOUR 40th! This book is sitting on my shelf (along with the author‘s previous book). It feels like a perfect spring choice to me. 1d

World Atlas of Coffee: From Beans to Brewing -- Coffees Explored, Explained and Enjoyed | James Hoffman

I‘m not doing very much this weekend. I took a shower tonight, ate dinner, wrote my book review for a book I finished for the #christiescapers buddy read, read the short story this week for the #noplacelikeholmes buddy read and I‘m going to journal tonight before bed, brush my teeth, put my nightgown on and start the next book for the #christiescapers buddy read.

Ireland's Traditional Foods: An Exploration of Irish Local and Typical Foods and Drinks | Regina Sexton, Cathal Cowan

I‘m mostly better from the stomach bug—it knocked me out for two days (ugh!). So we took son out for his last night in town before flying back to college tomorrow (😞). We went to our local Irish place and I had Guinness beef stew and soda bread. I was nervous about my stomach so I ate only some of it. But it was delicious. And I love soda bread. I‘m going to have to figure out how to make it or find a bakery where I can buy it regularly. ⬇️

AnnCrystal Glad you are doing better 🙏💝...😋👍. (edited) 2w

GingerAntics I‘m glad you‘re feeling better. We‘ve made soda bread before. Depending on the recipe, it can be easy or it can be really weird. When it turns out, it‘s great. I‘ll have to check to see which recipes have worked for us. 2w

TheBookHippie Ugh. So sorry. I think I hit all the emotions in a day lately. Rage, grief, pockets of joy. This weekend just chores and rest. 2w

Deblovestoread Sorry to hear you‘ve hit a rough patch. Hoping for better things for you. I have some chores to do today and will start How the Light Gets In on audio for the #TransReadathon. I am hoping to sneak in a few minutes in my sewing room to craft a bit this afternoon. 2w

Librarybelle Today is a spring clean day, in between coaxing Zeke to eat. He‘s going through a rough patch this weekend and of course decided to be very picky on eating when the vet is closed for the weekend. I‘m hoping to carve some reading time in later today and all day tomorrow. We‘ll see! 2w

DebinHawaii Sorry to hear things are rough right now. Hoping things get better soon. 💜💜💜 It was a week & I‘m in need of an escape so taking a field trip to a little town with my favorite local stores & using the 30-40 minute drive each way for a cozy mystery audiobook. 2w
