Happy St. Patrick’s Day!! (I suppose this post should be in green…) I’ve got the perfect book today: Rosewater and Soda Bread, by Marsha Mehran (the sequel to Pomegranate Soup), the continuing adventures a family of Iranian sisters who end up in Ballinacroagh, County Mayo, Ireland. The quote is from page 105:
She must make an effort to eat more from the list of hot foods Marjan had written for her, Estelle told herself. The darling had meticulously charted the best ingredients and dishes to take at such times, times when she felt not only the pain of her joints but the darkness that came from watching your body turn slowly to stone.
The roundup is as Should Be Reading.
