Friends of mine have a food blog. Their's is unusual in that the
writing is always as impeccable and interesting as the recipes. I get
a lot of great inspiration from their unusual and delicious offerings.

These friends are centered in the Chicago area, so sometimes there is
mention of things that would interest those who are nearby.

And many of you are familiar with David Lebovitz, I am sure, as he is
an accomplished baker of some renown. He has a great cake detailed
today and his offerings, too, are so well written, as well as being
informative, that those of you who have not read him, owe yourself the
treat.

David, of course, lives in Paris.

OH...and about those olive oil based lemon squares from the
NYT....several folks have written to the NYT saying the topping never
gels. Huh. I might skip that altogether this weekend.
