Well, Anthony...I have just finished a novel by John Grisham..'The
Firm'...

Chelsea Quinn Yarbro's 'Night Blooming'. This is one of about 30 or so
books set around Saint Germain, a good vampire as he travels though history.
This particular one set in the days of Emp. Charlemaine. Normally fairly
accurate historically, she tends to add in the preface where she took
'literary license' with history.

And I always have a stack of cook books on the side for when I just sit
down at the table and having a 'cuppa'.. :-)

Hari Kojima's 'Local Style Favorites', open just now to 'Opakapaka and
Friends with Miso' (Miso and mirin marinaded Onaga, Gindai etc, think
'pacific snapper'). Also a new one for Mother's day, 'Paula Deen
Celebrates!'. I am not overtly fond of her on TV, but some of her recipes
are pretty good. She tends to be a bit high fat but it's usually easy to
see where to adapt them down a bit from that.
