Ancient Kitchen, Hunter-Gatherer Neolithic style

Enjoy a tour of a Neolithic kitchen complete with grinding stones, ovens, and the hunter-gatherer equivalent of a refrigerator. And some recipes of Greek food to get you in the mood for my about-to-release novel, Achilles’s Wife. Have fun.

Murder on the Nile by Verity Bright: Book Review

In this humorous spoof of the cozy English murder mystery, Lady Eleanor Swift is off to Egypt where she’ll come upon a murder, of course.

This is a good one for extremely light fun, which is kind of what some of us need these days. Enjoy my review.
