The Dutch House has been sitting on my shelf, unread for a long time...you've convinced me that I need to dive into it soon! Speaking of books where the house is incorporated like another character, have you heard Banyan Moon? Ironically, I actually put it down part way because I wasn't enjoying it, but it seems that many people liked this book! Maybe you will too :)
I'm not much of a baker either, although I've tried making cardamom buns and I love them so much! Kind of like cinnamon buns, but maybe a less intense, light sweet flavour that's lovely in its own way - though I love cinnamon buns too! I think it was actually a recipe shared by Leslie Stephens (I am so influenced by her lol).
I love the recommendations you bring Naomi, I'm still on the waitlist at the library for the last book (maybe you should talk to someone) and I'm going to add Banyan Moon to my future-reads list. Mmmm, cardamom buns sound really good and I agree, Leslie is very influential! Hope you're having a great start to fall :)
Pistachios are delicious especially pistachio crusted salmon, A Bonnie Neufeld recipe. I've had a boar hair brush for about 10 years now, good stuff.
That is a good recipe. 10 years, must be why you have such great hair!

Happy fall! I agree with your book reviews - loved The Dutch House; thought Pineapple Street was meh. Congratulations on your new role. Xo
Thank you Shawn! Happy fall 🍂
