The Circle by Dave Eggers 📚 ★★★☆☆ A quick read.
The most exquisite food in the world, say many celebrated chefs, is being made not in Copenhagen or New York, but in a remote temple complex south of Seoul by a 59-year-old Buddhist nun.
fascinating.
Love the Theatre Royal Staircase. Always try to get a pic. There for #SBSecretShow which we thoroughly enjoyed.

I noticed a general downwards trend in the quality of online comments.
Hi Doug,
Glad to see this. There has a been consistent drift to twitter & other social for comments. I think this is a pity for several reasons.
I am responding to this with a webmention, which it looks like you have adopted. I’d hope that the quality of comments received via webmention might be better given that the comments will be published on the commenter’s own site. These might be less knee-jerk or throwaway than a tweet or toot?
There are still a few wrinkles to be ironed out of webmentions but I have high hopes that they will be more widly adopted and be a good thing.

Our Daily Bread so good. I enjoyed it all, from grain to table with a smidgen of reggae. I like quick & dirty microcasts but this was a pro job. Fingers crossed for season 2.
