Alison Roman’s chicken soup for summer colds

I make this every time I’m sick and it never misses (I like to double up on herbs and greens and throw in some jalapeños too). The tomatillos are truly magic

The Director by Daniel Kehlmann

Made me want to read everything else Daniel Kehlmann has written and also rewatch Zone of Interest. Super dark and horrifying but written with the lightest touch and so, so funny. Also I learned a lot!!

Days of Being Wild

In the Mood for Love who??? PSA: more people need to be talking about this movie, which I just watched for the first time and liked significantly more than the other two films in this trilogy. Sexy and emotional, but also funny and a little weird. For anyone who watched In the Mood for Love and thought “yes this is gorgeous but why is everything so serious”

Ancient Agora of Athens

My favorite of the ancient sites. Not nearly as crowded as the Acropolis, I often found myself completely alone
