What I'm reading

The Year of Eating Dangerously Tom Parker Bowles. ISBN 9780091904913, Ebury Press

What I'm cooking from

Food of Greece Vilma Liacouras Chantiles, ISBN 9780671750961

For many years I've corresponded with a retired physics professor in Oregon. Periodically a book lands in my letterbox that he thinks I might enjoy. A 1979 edition of his one arrived after I mentioned I had a Greek neighbour. It's full of interesting snippets of information and great flavourful Greek dishes for all seasons.
