I love your mix of books and food, Marg! And what a great way to put together a salad! Sounds like you hit all the food groups, plus some!
I look forward to reading more of your pieces. I often listen to audiobooks while cooking. Right now I'm listening to "The Master Bedroom" by Tessa Hadley, an author I read about because she has a new book called "Free Love" that just came out. She seems to write a lot about family relationships that go awry--a bottomless source of material! I'm also reading a biography of Sylvia Plath called "Red Comet" by Heather Clark. I guess I'm drawn to dark material!
I'm reading another Louise Penny since you put me onto her. This time The Beautiful Mystery. Perfect holiday reading, undemanding but interesting enough.
I read The Plot but didn't like it all that much. The author came to our library to speak, which is why I was aware of the book. It's not the kind of book I usually read, but there was so much hype here because she was coming. I do really like a good murder mystery, especially on PBS....

I love the 'plot' you use for making salads. I might just pinch that from you.
I'm reading To Paradise at the moment by Hanya Yanagihara who wrote A Little Life. I'm totally engrossed in it!
