Best of the web:
• Celebrating Bad Food: An Interview with Christopher Kimball. This interview is fascinating on nineteen different levels, covering everything from home cooking to school lunchrooms to the comeback of the newsletter to digital trends.
• How I gained and lost 60 pounds as an entrepreneur. I was uneasy with how much I resonated with this. (Hint: it’s all about habits. And for goodness sake, get some sleep!)
• Don’t waste your two most productive hours. “Each morning, we get a brief window of time during which we’re most mentally capable of getting stuff done. And yet most of us waste that time.”
• 100 notable books of 2014 from the New York Times.
On the blog:
• 13+ perfect stocking stuffers for book lovers.
• Books that belong in every family’s library.
Have a great weekend!

Just wanted to tell you I’m reading WHAT ALICE FORGOT and am absolutely loving it. This is the third book (I think?) that I picked up and loved because of you. The other two were THE ROSIE PROJECT and DAILY RITUALS.
So much in this book — the story line, the storytelling, just good, good stuff. Thank you, ma’am!
The Kimball interview was totally cool — I do find that cooking gets easier and it’s partly that I’m getting so much experience with it whether I want it or not.
