I just finished this book from Moudhy Al-Rashid, which I discovered through Booksky. The author describes the life of people, from the mightier to the most humble, that lived in ancient Mesopotamia as great kings and civilisations succeeded one another. A very knowledgeable and accessible book.

I am so happy! After 15 years during which deers and porcupines destroyed my plum trees leaving only one or two plums for our consumption, I had the idea to install a chime nearby. The sound is pleasant and effective to frighten them. Here is my first harvest.And the Damas plum trees look promising!

I recommend Martin Walker’s Bruno Chief of Police mystery novels. They take place in Dordogne, a region he knows very well and contain a vivid description of the inhabitant’s everyday life. M. Walker is a specialist in geopolitics and he uses this knowledge to craft his intrigues.

Double chocolate chocolate chips cookies. Doubled the salt and soda by mistake in my first double batch and then had to double the dough without any addition of salt or soda to make it edible. Here is a picture halfway through making the cookies. Still a long way to go!
