My Australian event schedule for MASSIF. A corrected version of my Australian tour graphic, as the previous one had the wrong Robinsons store. It will be Glen Waverley, not Frankston. UK details coming soon. No US tour this year, my apologies. www.allenandunwinblog.com/events/garth...

And a very special #CookbookCorner shoutout for the 20th Anniversary edition of ‘A Year in my Kitchen: A Collection of Recipes Inspired by the Seasons and Based on a Culinary Toolbox of Inventive Flavourings' by the late, great Skye Gyngell. Two decades on, it’s as fresh and inspiring as ever.

Some things just are worth reviewing. Not because they're bad but because they're kind of inconsequential.

The best way to make yourself feel better is a nourishing, home-cooked meal. Might be worth still making the meal for two, and then popping leftovers in the fridge as a gift to Future You. Wishing you long life, Diane, and may his memory be a blessing. 🤍

Food and art baked into a yummy package. 🫓 A stunning, traditional Uzbek bread known as Patir - a dense and celebratory flatbread. The bread is meticulously decorated by hand with detailed patterns stamped into the center and a sculpted, flower-like border. It is then baked in a tandoor oven.

The image is of a four panel comic.
The title for the first two panels reads “dog domestication”.
The first panel shows a wolf running with a pack. The text reads “we changed form, size, personality…”
The second panel shows a chihuahua in a dog bed. The text reads “…lifestyle, instinct, our entire way of being.”
The title for the last two panel reads “cat domestication.”
The third panel shows an image of a cat outside.
The fourth panel shows the exact same cat indoors. The text reads “we went inside.”

Someone said to me, "I'm sorry but I got your book from a library." Nobody should ever apologise for that. You read my book! That's brilliant! I grew up hanging out in libraries and the idea of a world without them fills me with dread. Without libraries, authors, like readers, will only suffer.

They say people have stopped reading. I was at my county library system's fundraising book sale yesterday. Place was packed, people leaving with boxes and bags of books. And I suspect Libby and other free sites are also seeing heavy use. Keep reading, people. 👍 📖 #Booksky

Alice Zaslavsky ("Australia's friendliest voice in food") brings guest stars to help cook, some as student, others as teacher. Results looks great, though she's not always aesthetically perfect--things get spilled. Quick chat w/ guest, but everything fits into place. In the end, they're having fun!

Just got my first 'we're commissioning less at the moment because of dramatic drop-offs in readership'... unclear why, it's possible people are reading AI summaries when searching, rather than the articles they relate to. So a gentle reminder to please click on the articles, if you want more of them

Two very different books, both of which I enjoyed. I know that Yesteryear has its detractors, and I don’t disagree with some of their arguments, but I still found the premise held up, and was compelled to continue (if you DNF, when did you stop?). And the Sedaris was pure observational joy!!

Gnarly, shrivelly celeriac is an unconventional taco filler. But peeled and roasted in Alice Zaslavsky’s recipe, the root vegetable yields an almost carne asada-like flavour

Gandalf: The blade is of Elvish-make. It will glow blue when orcs or goblins are nearby. Bilbo: I've never used a sword in my life. Gandalf: And I hope you never have to. But if you do, remember this: true courage lies in knowing not when to take a life, but when to spare one. #Tolkien #TheHobbit
Quote is from the movie version of ‘The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey’ (2012), screenplay by Fran Walsh, Philippa Boyens, Peter Jackson and Guillermo del Toro, directed by Peter Jackson.

Image shows the first pages of the First American edition of J.R.R. Tolkien’s ‘The Hobbit, or There and Back Again’, published by Houghton Mifflin in 1938. It features a full-page coloured illustration on the left, a painted rural scene by Tolkien titled ‘The Hill: Hobbiton across the hill’. Photo provided by Tolkien Library.
