What now?
Monday, October 12, 2009
While we were creating gourmet.com, it didn't feel right to be posting here. But now that Gourmet is, sadly, a piece of the past, this is where you'll find me.
At the moment I'm still working on Gourmet's Adventures with Ruth, which debuts this weekend on public television. Right now I'm viewing the rough cut of the China episode, getting really hungry as I watch myself and Dean (Fearing) cooking spicy eggplant, the best sweet and sour pork I've ever tasted (the secret is a syrup made from osmanthus flowers), and wonderful little egg-wrapped dumplings. We were in Yangshuo, a stunningly gorgeous part of the world. The whole time I was there I had the surreal feeling that I had walked right into one of those achingly beautiful 16th century Chinese ink drawings.
I'm still on booktour, too, and as soon as I know where I'm going to be, and when, I'll post that. Right now I can tell you that I'll be reading at The Book Loft in Great Barrington this Saturday at 1, and I'll be in Philadelphia on October 26th. Tomorrow I'm going to be talking to Terry Gross on NPR.
You can follow me on Twitter, too.
