#2023 April Reading List

by NancyElin

Spring in The Netherlands

 

  1. Update: 01.04.2023
  2. Lowering my reading expectations in the coming weeks.
  3. I’ve only selected 10 books
  4. ….but have no illusions that I’ll read them all!
  5. On Monday my kitchen will be ripped out and the preparations
  6. …for a new kitchen will be  done.
  7. I’m switching from gas cooking to induction.
  8. An induction stove requires a dedicated 220-volt outlet protected by 40-50 amp breakers.
  9. So I need to  install high-capacity wiring in the kitchen.
  10. Once the remodelling is done….then I can relax and pick up a book.

      Kath, this happened all so quickly I did not have time to mail you. Bert had a 2 week opening in his “planning” and it was NOW or never! I bought the new kitchen yesterday! I will take pictures as the remodelling progresses. Cooking is back in my life! Switching to induction cooking and that will be an adventure. Luckily I have some very good pans ($$) that are suited for induction. I have Demeyere pans (see Google), Staub (cast iron) and Le Creuset. Just made homemade asparagus soup….so easy, so delicious.
