De Beauvoir: or, Second Love; VOL. I
Anonymous"De Beauvoir’s rucksack invariably contained a candle, an alarm clock, a copy of the local Guide Bleu, a Michelin map, and a felt-covered water bottle filled with red wine." This story of Simone de Beauvoir as hiking adventurer is perfect. @annabelabbs https://t.co/Ejj8PP2osr

Beyond the North Wind: Russia in Recipes and Lore [A Cookbook]
Darra Goldstein@darra_goldstein I love your book 'Beyond the North Wind' so much (I've been making birch bud vodka in spring since it came out); this year that's not possible, because I've moved to a place with aspens, and no birch. Do you think aspen bud vodka might work? Thank you for your writing!
