They look great. Thanks for the recommendation

I think the graphic design takes an iconic, instantly identifiable product and turns it bland and vanilla. But I agree, the tab is definitely an improvement.

I think this is one of the worst package redesigns that I can recall. Clearly, solving a problem that never existed.

Yeah, it’s a beautifully designed system from the sixties, an icon of modern design. Pretty costly but it’s just perfect shelving https://www.vitsoe.com/us/606

I have a seriously tiny kitchen but I always find room for my spices. This is the fourth iteration of this shelving system (Vitsoe). This is pretty much the whole kitchen

And they say there’s nothing new under the sun… good idea, worth trying

Thanks. Absolutely love Italy in the winter. Highly recommended!

I happen to be in Florence right now, this provides a nice counterpoint to the lionization of Michelangelo that’s all around me. Thanks for sharing, so topical!

There’s a place in elmhurst, queens called “taste good” that I went to a few weeks ago that was pretty good but if I was going that far off the beaten track I’d probably switch and go for Indonesian instead. in manhattan chinatown I like west new Malaysia, although I’m nobody’s idea of an expert in this cuisine Malaysian 🇲🇾 https://westnewmalaysia.org Indonesian 🇮🇩 https://awangkitchen.com

I’ve used decaf green tea and a little rosewater. Very exotic!

I can’t recommend strongly enough that you take the plunge and invest in some manner of traditional clay bean pot. I’ve been a compulsive consumer of dried beans and lentils for years, during the pandemic I bought a copy of Paula Wolferts clay pot cookbook and I was immediately smitten. Bought a la chamba black clay soup pot and between beans, soups and bolognese sauce it’s one of the best pots I own. if you make it through the great bean drought of 2025 and find yourself with an abundance of legumes I definitely recommend trying a Persian Ash-e Reshteh which is a bean and noodle soup. Substitute whole wheat spaghetti for the reshteh if you must, it’s what winter was made for

What a great offer! I’m leaving to spend a month or two in Italy next week, thing are kinda hectic, but when I get back… thanks so much!

I just opened the app and it showed up.

Great article, lots of good choices in here.

Huh. My app showed me this
