Charlie's Workshop Wondertime June, 2008 This is the second time I've written about my son in Wondertime. In this article I write about his "invention room" in the basement. It's a truly scary place at times, but it's also the best place around for building things out of PVC, experimenting with wiring, and hammering things together. The photos in this article are amazing. (Well, I'm a bit biased, since a couple are of Charlie!) | Guilty Pleasures: Crab Legs National Geographic Traveler's Intelligent Traveler Blog May, 2008 Listen. I love me some crab legs. I'm serious. Back away from the buffet, because here I come. See less

Marcia, a Pantry reader from the very first day, suggested I feature some non-cookbooks in Lydia Recommends (in the right-hand column), where I highlight cooking and gardening books that are in my own collection or that I use as references. I thought it was a great idea. So good, in fact, that this week I'm spotlighting Marcia's selection of good reads that have food as an important ingredient in the story. *UPDATE: A Pantry reader suggested I list the books in each post, after the end of the "official" Bookworm week. Thanks, Shawn, for the great idea. Marcia recommended: * Voice of the Violin * The Mistress of Spices * Anecdotes of Destiny and Ehrengard (includes "Babette's Feast") * The Debt to Pleasure * La Cucina Are you a Bookworm in the Pantry? Would you like to share your reading list of non-cookbooks that have something to do with food? I'll be happy to feature your list of up to 5 food-related books: nonfiction or fiction, mystery, poetry, travel, food history, food gardening,... See less

This is a great essay about writing by George Orwell. I’m embarrassed to admit that I had never read it before this week. Most people who bother with the matter at all would admit that the English language is in a bad way, but it is generally assumed that we cannot by conscious action do anything about it. Our civilization is decadent, and our language—so the argument runs—must inevitably share in the general collapse. It follows that any struggle against the abuse of language is a sentimental archaism, like preferring candles to electric light or hansom cabs to aeroplanes. Underneath this lies the half-conscious belief that language is a natural growth and not an instrument which we shape for our own purposes. Now, it is clear that the decline of a language must ultimately have political and economic causes: it is not due simply to the bad influence of this or that individual writer. But an effect can become a cause, reinforcing the original cause and producing the same effect in an... See less
