All of the food in the second book of the Anne of Green Gables series, plus some discussion on actual plums versus “plums” and cucumbers being thought to make you ill.

Every food in Nancy Drew #7. A house explodes near Nancy’s car, we meet Ned Nickerson, and there’s a lot of Swedish bakery food mentioned.

Listing the food in Nancy Drew 4 and 19- a two-fer this time.

Reviewing and cataloguing my favorite entry in the Nancy Drew series, quickly discussing prohibition era drinks.

Embarking on the Nancy Drew series, trying to find the origin of “fish pie with salmon meringue,” and being vividly relieved I am allergic to salmon and cannot recipe test that.

Swedish food, discussing becoming aware of my own cultural biases around food, and 3 hours of research into finding out what a “pineapple pudding” is.

Reading a book that was labeled anti-Czarist propaganda in 1905. (Yes, seriously.)

Doctor Dolittle is not a good book, but I read it anyway.

Every food mentioned in The Magic City, and an overview of what a captain’s biscuit actually is. Philip likes coconut… a lot.
