Cooking for Thursday starts today so it’s not a mad crunch at the last minute. Starting with cutting up bread for stuffing and letting it sit in a warm oven to go stale. Cranberry sauce is cooling after a Herculean effort to make it that lasted a whole 9 minutes.

The composers Arvo Pärt and Terry Riley, who are marking their 90th birthdays this year, remain intriguing musical outliers, notable for the stubbornness with which they have held to their youthful convictions. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/28KPVb
At Ninety, Arvo Pärt and Terry Riley Still Sound Vital
Both composers remain intriguing outliers, notable for the stubbornness with which they have held to their youthful convictions.

Excessive force. PERIOD!
They called them “violent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor.
📌 Keep sharing videos, everyone, because they’re evidence.

I think one of the nicest things about this season’s #GBBO cast is how much they all genuinely seem to like each other. The end of this week’s episode was a little bit heartbreaking as you saw them all reacting with genuine love for the departing person.

Shelling cranberry beans I got today. I could have taken more. Fresh beans, still in their pods, are such a rarity in my world but fresh are a joy because they’re tastier and meatier. I’ll cook these tomorrow morning & then maybe have them with polenta or farro for dinner.

I was just wondering the other day what she is doing. She is hardly the type to just drop out of sight like she did after closing Prune. I suppose this book is the answer to that question.
