I always love stumbling on things that remind me so much of home. Your recipe for Chipotle & date hot sauce looks so delicious!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10129853.post-48751310592749084862008-02-13T14:56:00.000-05:002008-02-13T14:56:00.000-05:00Kate, re "reading", and books: As I continue to en...Kate, re "reading", and books: As I continue to enjoy the current PBS Austen series, reading some of her work for the first time, rereading others, I am especially delighted to see again the perfect "Pride and Prejudice" repeated from a few years ago and I expand my enjoyment with two current mystery book series about Jane Austen.<BR/><BR/>First, and new to me, is author Carrie Bebris, who continues where Austen leaves off in "Pride and Prejudice" with "Mr. And Mrs. Darcy Mysteries":"Pride and Prescience"," Suspense and Sensibility" start the series off, enjoyable enuf to read, not over the top.<BR/><BR/>Then there is Stephanie Barron, who has been around awhile, she turns Jane herself into the sleuth with "Jane and the__________" titles. She gets Austen prose just right, and I recommend them. By now she has written over seven of these.<BR/><BR/>The latter series reminds me of the superb Sherlock Holmes series which I devoured last year by Laurie King, which stand head and shoulders above most such series. These combine the best qualities of the above books as they continue where the Sherlock Holmes saga stops; they turn Holmes into a more mature hero, adding a young American girl to the mix. Joan Warden, my librarian sister in law, and I rhapsodize about these, and rightly so. If you read these it's imperative to read them in order. The first is "The Beekeeper's Apprentice". <BR/><BR/>I seldom read novels, and never read current fiction, but do see me for mysteries, which give me much enjoyment. of course, cooking is another matter, but i satisfy myself by heaping recipes onto my family via email... pat royaltypat royaltyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10112258448156761403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10129853.post-83240978064608303082008-02-05T17:25:00.000-05:002008-02-05T17:25:00.000-05:00Copernicus is located in the South Main Market--ne...Copernicus is located in the South Main Market--near the intersection of Main and Madison.
