I’m with you, Marg! So much better sometimes to retreat to books, friends, cooking, gardening, poetry than to deal with conspiracy theorists and the like. The book “Language of Food” that you and Sinù recommend sounds like a wonderful selection that might chase away the summer (or winter!) doldrums, along with an herby dish of pasta and prawns! Yum!

I've requested this book from our ebooks state library collection and STILL have to wait!! I see I now have 5 requests which are mostly from you!
They say there’s joy in anticipation, but do let me know what you think when you finally get a chance to read them.
Thank you so much for mentioning me Marg, what a lovely thing to do.
This book has awaken a deep curiousity for Eliza's life. I'm currently on the hunt for some other book about her. What a woman.
I very much enjoyed how the author developed Anne's character, too. I may even go as far as saying that Anne was my favourite among the two.
Overall a fantastic read, and I'm so glad you enjoyed it too.
