No self-indulgent essay, but announcements.
First, in the run-up to Christmas I’ve decided to start an advice column for questions culinary, hosting and — well, anything. This will come out on the 10th of December, to give anyone asking Christmas questions time to reflect upon my answers.
Simply reply to this email with your question(s).
Second, I am planning a series of interviews, which should be ready by next year and will continue my exploration of food’s relationship with absolutely everything.
Third, Lo’ and I are featured in the current issue of Apartemento, in conversation with our darling Tosia Leniarska, with photos by the brilliant Iris Humm. I think I first read the magazine when I was nineteen and have wanted to be in it ever since, so goals af. The conversation is wide ranging, but it was really important to us that we were able to reflect on the precarity of renting and on Lo’s experience of homelessness as a child. You can buy a copy here.
Fourth, the only thing I’ll boast about straight-forwardly — I am eight months sober! If you’re questioning your relationship with alcohol, or any substance, there is a way out and it does get better.
Fifth, I made a new Greed Playlist and didn’t really announce it —
And if you haven’t, I recommend listening to Greed I, II and III.
Finally, my first book To Entertain is due out this Spring with Cartouche Press!!! Early days, so more on this later.
