By elspeth barker Imma b real with you almost nothing ~happens~ in the novel but it’s about the beauty of the word type of thing. Super gothic and each sentence is insane ! Opening pages alone are worth a read
A strange li’l novella that knows that it’s strange — and that life is strange.
It’s a great story about rejecting the quotidian side of life in favor of doing something more free-spirited.
Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead by Olga Tokarczuk
Mrs. Caliban by Rachel Ingalls
Margery Kempe by Robert Gluck Here are a few short ones I've read recently that are pretty out there in structure and tone, but really enjoyed them.
Oh god!!!! lentils!!! You can eat them for days in a variety of ways Sauté onion, celery, carrots or PARSNIPS
Get some tomato paste and MISO mixed and melted
Cumin, paprika, curry mixes
Lentils, a cup?
Salt obvi
Water, enough to cover and then some (you can always add more)
Bring to boil, cover, reduce
check water levels now and then. should not be soupy, not dry, just a lil saucy wetness
Taste
W sauce, rice vinegar
Taste, chefs kiss? I eat with a side of lemony arugula and topped with an egg dotted w hot sauce
Can also reheat the next day, add a bit of goat cheese, make salad w arugula, pass out ur so healthy and amazing and tasty
I made one for summer (kayak, eat corn!) and forgot to make one for fall+winter. Gonna do a spring bucket list (planting, marshy hikes b4 it gets ticky). Doesn’t have to be on theme even but it’s a nice way to engage in the fleeting seasons
