The Friday 5 #111
More about Menorca, my DIL’s delicious stuffed aubergine recipe and yet another big change!
A message first of all to the hundreds of lovely people who have signed up as free and paid subscribers since the totally unexpected news that Substack made me one of their featured publications for 2024! Thank you all so much. Thank you Substack!
If you’d like to convert that free membership to a paid one which will entitle you to all my recipes, restaurant and wine recommendations and tips on ageing well and joyfully there’s an offer at the moment you might want to take advantage of which is 38% off an annual subscription.
Why 38%? Bit random but it’s half my age (you can read what it feels like being 76 here. Basically not like it was in my mum and gran’s day.)
That amounts to just £2.17 a month which is less than half the rate of a monthly subscription so if you’re on one of those you might want to take the opportunity to get a better rate. 😉
You’ll also be able to join in my monthly ‘bring a bottle’ wine tastings where we hang out and enjoy chatting about wine. (The next one, on Sicilian wine, is on September 11th.) And be eligible for my cookbook giveaways - you’re just in time to be in with a chance of winning a copy of Meera Sodha’s fabulous new book, Dinner.
Anyway for the rest of you here’s this week’s Friday 5. Which is brief(ish) ‘cos I’m off to Herefordshire, then Sicily, then Hertfordshire, then Kent, then London over the next 12 days.
Retirement, eh? 🙄
