Cooking With Christie: Quick Apple Cinnamon Buns
Inspiration: Thanks to my elementary school’s lunch lady, who loved adding way too many raisins for my liking and a brief stint in a supermarket bakery where I scooped the icing out of a five-gallon bucket with a gloved hand….My enjoyment of cinnamon rolls, in any iteration, declined significantly. However, as more years than I care to count have passed since either instance was relevant in my…

Mrs. Todd’s cheque for a guinea was never cashed. Instead Poirot had it framed and hung on the wall of our sitting room. “It is to me a little reminder, Hastings. Never to despise the trivial — the undignified. A disappearing domestic at one end — a cold-blooded murder at the other. To me, one of the most interesting of my cases.”
“The Adventure of the Clapham Cook” was first published in The Sketch, November 14, 1923.
Air date: January 8, 1989.

Hercule Poirot vs. the countryside
Look at it, Hastings. Not a building in sight. Not a restaurant, not a theatre, not an art gallery. A wasteland. AGATHA CHRISTIE'S POIROT (1989-2013)

Thanks for your help! 🌙

Lockwood thoughts - feel free to move on.
#I'm at the midpoint for Hollow Boy - they believe they've completed the staircase haunting (obviously there's unfinished business)#and have been kicked upstairs to the Chelsea Outbreak#and I am very very pleased with this setup and am hoping Jonathan Stroud can pay it off richly#What have Lockwood and Co missed? What was Lady Wintergarden's rush? Why is it so urgent to get them on the#Chelsea case - is she hoping they'll get killed/sufficiently distracted? We've had the apparition on the stairs described to us#once and shown twice - what are we misunderstanding about it?#What is the uniqueness of Cooke? What is Lady Wintergarden's aim and how is it presumably tied to the Orpheus Society (which#I have some theories on...)#I think what I really want is a proper Agatha Christie solution here - the kind that makes you smack your head and go 'OF COURSE!#How could I not see it? This changes everything!'#whereas book one was more of a Conan Doyle solution (ultimately more of an adventure with mystery trappings#lacking sufficient structure for the reader to solve the whole thing rather than just a few details)#and the second was really more of a thriller with a surprise villain.#I know - these books aren't mystery genre and I don't ask it of them - they're fine just being adventure thrillers#but this one would make me so happy if it borrowed a couple more elements from mystery - namely the 'You saw it and#understood it one way - but there's an important detail which you can logically locate based on what we've shown you which will#fundamentally transform your understand of what you saw.'#lockwood and co#save lockwood and co

Cooking With Christie: Sour Cream Drop Cookies
Inspiration: In an attempt to declutter her house, my mom unearthed a family cookbook from the attic. Well acquainted with both my enthusiasm for baking, vintage cookbooks (especially family heirlooms), and old recipe boxes I find at thrift stores — my mom made a point of saving the handwritten culinary history of our family for me. The above recipe comes from my great-grandmother, who managed a…

Agatha Christie's Poirot
The Adventure of the Clapham Cook
I fear you are making a mistake, Madame. Hercule Poirot is a private detective. I know that. Haven't I just told you I want you to find my cook for me? Walked out of the house on Wednesday without so much as a bye-your-leave and never came back. I am sorry, Madame, but I do not touch that particular kind of business. I wish you, good day.

Breaking Bread 2010- Book Review
Breaking Bread: Recipes and Stories From Immigrant Kitchens, is my latest read. The book, by Lynne Christy Anderson, a professor who teaches writing, is not new. It’s about 12 years old. However, it is still offers plenty of good insight into the role of food in immigrant households. Breaking Bread cover photo Breaking Bread in the KitchenIt’s About the FoodIt’s About more than the…
