Why I won't miss summer

Remember when you couldn't wait for the first day of summer? “No more pencils, no more books. No more teacher's dirty looks.” Suddenly the stress of exams and the burden of homework were gone.

A cookbook devotee offers praise for the cooking video

I am a cookbook obsessive. From a cold start around 20 years ago, when I first started cooking in earnest, I've amassed more than 100 books of recipes for cuisines from all over the world, from Armenian to Xian - I'm giving serious thought to ordering a Zanzibari cookbook, not least for alphabetical symmetry.
