I want to thank you so much for the Campfire Stories recommendation, my 8 year old son I just did a 7 hour drive to Crater Lake National Park and the audiobook was one of the highlights of the trip.

This eggplant is so good! Instead of romesco, I tried the grated tomato sauce that was in the NYT magazine last week. Grate a large tomato on a box grater, mix with olive oil, s&p, and a splash of vinegar. Throw the eggplant (and some fried paneer) on top with a sprinkle of basil, and it might be the most delicious dinner you eat all summer. I think I'm going to grate all my tomatoes from now on.

How did you make it in 13 hours?? Took us almost 11 to get to DC. Arrrgg! I-95! (Klara & the Sun is on my nightstand now!)

I love the top 3 in that stack! I haven't read the others. I'll add them to the never-ending list!

haha, I wrote about it in my last book (How to Celebrate Everything). About how un-adventurous and worry-wart-ish I can be. I have had to work hard to not pass this on to my children but I'm not sure how successful I've been.

It resonates as I debate whether or not to take a planned trip to Austin, TX later this week to visit a dear friend. The "be safe" part :)

I cooked firm tofu along with the eggplant, didn't do the sauce but just squeezed some lime on top and dipped in mayo. Yum!
