January 18th - Links and Such

Here's some things catching my interest/taking up my time/filling my belly/making me have the feels recently.

Reading:

These were published a while ago, but I just worked up the emotional nerve to read them. 2 really good tribute pieces about Anthony Bourdain. We have really lost a giant force of good.

The Enormous Life of Anthony Bourdain, According to Those Who Knew Him Best- GQ
Jonathan Gold's Tribute to Bourdain - LA Times


Coveting:


Fiesta's new color "meadow." I don't have any Fiestaware, but this color is everything. How can I justify more dishes...hmmmmmm.

Cooking:

Pan-seared Salmon (get that skin crisp!) over roasted fennel, carrots and cherry tomatoes, with lemony white beans. If you don't know by now, fennel and salmon are meant for each other.

Pinning:

While looking for inspiration for another project, I spotted a vintage cheese label with a kitty on it. Then another one. And another. Apparently this is (was) a thing? Cats on French cheese labels! It seems to be mostly Camembert labels. I don't know if this is just because cats like dairy (although they're not supposed to eat it, don't feed your cat cheese!), or if there's some other reason. But, I love cats and I love cheese, so I started a Pinterest board dedicated to them.











That's it for this week. Hope everyone is keeping warm and safe this winter!
