Tomorrow I’m running the Big Beach Half Marathon. My friend, Steve, is running the marathon to celebrate his 60th birthday, and many of us have secretly been training to join him for the weekend.
We surprised Steve yesterday so I can finally publish my training details.
Last week I made J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s Japanese Beef and Potato Stew (Nikujaga) recipe from The Wok.
The soup was good. It very much tasted like a Western stew with a Japanese broth. 3 stars ★★★☆☆
George Chidi with a good analysis of current political issues in Georgia, and a good note on the murder of Renee Good.
Donald Trump now genuinely lives in a different reality, one in which neither grammar nor history nor the normal rules of human interaction now affect him.
Anne Applebaum with solid analysis of Trump’s letter to Norway prime minister, Jonas Gahr.
