Rainy Summer Days

Read this week: The Seance by John Harwood, a good novel if you are in the mood for a Victorian tale within a tale. I love the paper cut illustration on the cover by Niroot Puttapipat. Here's a link to an image of the paper cut used for the cover. Here's a link to the image on the cover.

Watching: Monk: Season Five--Tony Shaloub is one of the great comedians of our age. He's so much fun to watch.

In the dye jar: cotton in black currant juice--some cloth mordanted with alum, some with tannin.

In the oven: Sour cherry rustic tart made with Hungarian sour cherries purchased at UBC Farm from an orchard near Oyama. I wish I'd bought more as they are the most delicious cherries I have ever tasted.
