This is my latest playlist. I love me some Spotify, whatever Taylor Swift says. Some of these are songs that endlessly make their way into my ears, some are new obsessions. All are moody and perfect for a chilly, rainy, possibly about to snow night…which is exactly what tonight is.
I’ve been really excited about my New Year’s Resolution to explore new culinary challenges. But Gourmet’s January issue is not helping my cause; it’s the Italian-American issue.

Perhaps you have asked yourself what librarians do on their days off. Do we clean our eyeglasses? Practice making those tight buns in our hair?
