Hi there!
I havenāt seen much food in it yet - except when they boil a whole man alive - but Iām obsessed with ShÅgun this week.

Appetite for destruction
ā ā ā ā ā
A cookbook editor nicknamed Piglet in the days leading up to her wedding, is poised to be a hit. But when her fiancĆ©e confesses a betrayal two weeks before they're set to be married, Piglet finds herself suddenly hungry. āWhen Piglet finally does confront the ugliness of her own desires, the novelās great revelations lie in uncomplicatedly virtuous scenes that disappoint the promises wrought by class standoffs and ostentatiously ripped wedding attireā, writes The Guardian.

Christopher Damman / The Conversation
Wegovy, Ozempic and Mounjaro are weight loss and diabetes drugs that have made quite a splash in health news. They target regulatory pathways involved in both obesity and diabetes and are widely considered breakthroughs for weight loss and blood sugar control. Theyāre not the only ones capable of that.
Drinking with Agatha ChristieĀ
Naomi Kaye / Crime Reads
Tisanes, hot chocolate, a pint, gin and gingerbeer, a strong cup of tea: itās simply not a Christie mystery without an array of beverages at the ready. As a long-term Christie devotee, during re-reads, certain aspects of her usage of beverages kept asserting themselves.
