Welcome to Litsy!

This started off strong, but eventually fell apart.

#2025Book16

Mouth watering, fascinating, a chef‘s kiss of a memoir. I loved hearing about Ripert‘s growing up in his mother‘s kitchen, live of restaurants from a young age, and his early training in french kitchens. This one will make you hungry! Great on #audio

Completed my #AuldLangSpine2025 pick from @JoeMo . This memoir is a gloriously acerbic, brutally honest look at the restaurant business in the early days of Anthony Bourdain‘s career. It‘s a bit repetitive, but I absolutely adore his voice. And now I know how to make a breast of chicken and mashed potatoes “tower like a fully engorged priapus.” So there‘s that. 👍🏼👍🏼 Thanks, Joe!

Raising a glass (I mean, a mug) of tea and a cardamom bun to @JoeMo as I kick off #AuldLangSpine2025 with this pick from his list.

First book of #wintergames finished for the #holidaybookdragons! I‘m obsessed with this series of romance Shakespeare retellings set among Indian-American families. So funny and cute and I love all the characters

Happy #wintergames ❄️❄️❄️ it‘s midnight in Prague, and I‘m getting a slightly slow start to this year‘s games as I‘ve got one more day left of a trip here with my friend before I head home and get festive in earnest. The plan is to finish this amazing Indian-American wedding infused retelling of much ado about nothing tomorrow - it‘s so deliciously written
