In place of the usual newsletter this week, I’m dropping by your inbox a little early to share a few things I’ve enjoyed and would highly recommend if you’re looking for something to drink, read or listen to over the weekend…

Everything Cookbooks, is by far one of my favourite podcasts. Each episode explores the ins and outs, the ups and downs of writing a cookbook and is helmed by a stellar cast of experienced and thoughtful authors, including Andrea Nguyen and Kristen Donnelly The latest episode features David Lebovitz; he shares his advice and philosophy on writing, sharing recipes and life in Paris.
I’d love to open this thread up and hear what you’re making, eating, reading or listening to this weekend. Let me know!

Reminds me I need to find time to top up the bread and butter pickles!
Thank you Sarah!
