Welcome to Episode 3, Season 2!This might be my favourite episode so far (Sophie talking here!); a really gentle and hopefully comforting chat about breaking out of boxes we or society put us in, about taking cooking seriously and treating yourself with infinite courtesy (thank you MFK Fisher for that wonderful turn of phrase, as always). Also, is listening to a book ‘as good as’ reading it? We discuss.Our book this episode is Bonnie Garmus’s Lessons in Chemistry, and our letter is, as they always are, beautiful. This one asking for some recommendations for things to read and cook to bring lightness and joy to a heavy time.This episode really is choc-a-block with good things to read, listen to and cook. My wishlist of books tor read (or listen to) is ever-growing!As always, the shownotes, links and recipes will be sent to our wonderful Subscribers shortly. You can become one to the tune of about one coffee a week. Thank you so much. We are so grateful for your support.Germaine and Sophie. xThank you, as always, to our producer Kristy Reading for putting these pods together. And to Smith and Jones for allowing us to include your beautiful music in each episode.
