| Introduction | The Splendid Spatula really has nothing to do with crime fiction, which is the focus of one of my blogs, but a little to do with travel, which is the focus of my other blog. On the crime front, I like international, pre-modern (meaning pre-1990s) stories. I tend to stay away from contemporary tales, those set in the US, and anything with too much romance. I also really dislike cutesy mysteries, but have a weakness for strong atmosphere, and if there is good food involved in an appropriate manner, well, you had me at hello. I do most of my reading in the tub, or in bed, or before taking a nap on the couch. The travel blog is actually just a collection of my travel journals, which some may find moderately entertaining or useful in planning their own adventures, especially if you like to eat or have small fry. Splendid Spatula is my internet handle, and is blatantly plagiarized from the title of a long-ago New York Times Magazine article about fishing and cooking with Ted Williams. |
