Show notes, recipe and recommendations, Ep 1/S2
Where we write about The Language of Food, the language of Brussels sprouts, emotional winters and ways food can reconnect us to loved ones present and absent.
Hello!
It feels so lovely to be writing to you like this, to be sending our thoughts, ideas, recipes and reading recommendations directly to a small community of invested friends rather than just pushing content out, hoping it connects with someone somewhere.
And if anything we say or read or cook does connect with you, we’d LOVE it if you’d share in the comment thread below.
Substack, this platform we’re writing to you on, is all about conversations and the sharing of ideas. And with all the changes over on Instagram at the moment, it just feels like such an uncomplicated and exciting place to be at the moment. Don’t you think? Anyhoo…onwards…
What’s in this newsletter
A bundle of links for things to listen to/read/think about that bubbled up out of this ep.
2 x memorable recipes with Brussels sprouts.
This episode’s beautiful letter.
Germaine’s book recommendation, ‘Wintering’ and some really helpful thoughts on normalising difficult times.

Some favourite books with food as a main character.
Ok. So you might have already seen that we published episode 1 of season 2 yesterday. If you haven’t had a listen yet, you can do so right here in Substack or on Apple, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.
Thank you so very much for being a founding subscriber of Something to Eat and Something to Read. Your support means the world to us, and it also means we can keep recording this pod. So once again, thank you.
Love,
Germaine and Sophie
