AUTHOR RECIPE FROM JUST ONE TASTE:

Chocolate Fondue
6 ounces of a most appropriate bittersweet chocolate crater heavy defeat cream1 tablespoon butter2 tablespoons cognacStrawberries, long stems attached
If we have a fondue pot, simply combine a initial 4 ingredients as well as stir them together over a heat source.
If not, its simplethe usually pretence is not to bake a chocolate as we warp it. The most foolproof approach Ive found is to boil H2O in a vast saucepan.

Put a chocolate in a heatproof play tiny enough to fit inside a saucepan.

Take a saucepan off a heat, then submerge a heatproof play partially in a water, stirring to warp a chocolate.
Once a chocolate is liquid, stir in a rest of a ingredients as well as serve immediately with a strawberries.

Poetry puzzles

Who is Ozymandias? Why is Coleridge's Lime-Tree Bower his prison? And what is the proper spelling of The Waste Land? The solving of a poem's puzzles is one poetry's greatest pleasures In the late 1990s the indefatigable John Sutherland produced a series of entertaining books about puzzles in fiction (Why is Frankenstein's monster yellow? Where does Fanny Hill keep her contraceptives? Who gets what in Heathcliff's will?). The books were initially linked to reissues of novels in the Oxford World's Classics series, and I was struck at the time how beautifully these little inquisitions of Sutherland's, often on apparently absurd or marginal issues in the text, got readers reading again, with attention and interest. What Sutherland was doing, in effect, was smuggling serious literary criticism into an apparently superficial form of writing. Perhaps, in a sense, he was even re-inventing literary criticism. In this era of academic theorising and the downsizing of m...

CCCP: Cosmic Communist Constructions Photographed by Frdric Chaubin review

These images of Soviet architecture from the Brezhnev era are simply out of this world Soviet brutalism is not something traditionally thought of as beautiful, but Frdric Chaubin's stunning photographs, published under the facetious title CCCP: Cosmic Communist Constructions Photographed , should go some way to changing this. Fascinated by the massive scale of Brezhnev-era architecture, the French photographer has toured the former Soviet Union since 2003, in search of dramatic examples of these sculptural buildings. The 1970s-1990s was a strong period for Soviet architecture, especially in the peripheral republics, where outlandish designs were an expression of the striving for independence, an early inkling of the break-up of the USSR. Architects at this time picked up where they left off following the suppression of the avant-garde by Stalin in the early 1930s, and were able to capitalise on advances made in engineering in the interim period, producing buildings with enormous in...
