Three Things
Samin Nosrat's new cookbook, the salad you will take to every potluck forevermore, 72 hours in and around Seattle
Greetings, eaters and readers! What’s for dinner tonight? Might I suggest a hot-off-the-press new favorite, Sheet Pan Gnocchi with Mushroom Bolognese or my Crunchy-Cheesy Bean Bake that took its star turn on What to Cook last Friday, following an interview about family dinner with yours truly? Thank you, Caroline Chambers! And thank you to everyone who weighed in on our audiobook discussion last week — I’m now 100% set for all my listening needs in the near future, queueing up two memoirs (this, this), plus Patrick Ryan’s new novel that is getting outstanding reviews. Please read the robust comment section for more recs, or at least bookmark it for future reference. One more very important question before your official dispatch begins: WHO HAS WORLD CUP 2026 TICKETS FOR ME? I registered for the draw and all that (I think?) but I’m impatient. Hook a lady up! 🙏 Thank you for your attention to this matter. And now! Your Three Things…
