THIRSTY THURSDAYS


We returned to Bangkok on Sunday morning, after a wonderful week exploring the French Riveria. It's good to be home, but I'm having major withdrawal from the endless walking, glasses of crisp rose and fresh, cool evenings.

More on Nice shortly. For now, here are a few links for your viewing pleasure this week...

The sweetest, juiciest strawberries were available everywhere in Nice last week. I would have loved to try a few of these variations on fresh strawberries and cream.

Could The Game of Thrones be an allegory for climate change?

Are you pro- or anti-clutter? I just started reading this recently hyped book and can't help feeling inspired.

A fascinating article on bibliotherapy in which the author perfectly articulates my feelings about reading: "In a secular age, I suspect that reading fiction is one of the few remaining paths to transcendence, that elusive state in which the distance between the self and the universe shrinks."
