Choose 20 books that have stayed with you or influenced you. One book per day for 20 days, in no particular order. No explanations, no reviews, just covers

Here’s another Manet I adore - A Bar at the Folies-BergΓ¨re. Great painting made even better by the Bass beer bottles on the bar!

Occasionally, my sisters and I share on our text thread of photos of works of art we love. I’m a huge fan of Γ‰douard Manet and Le DΓ©jeuner sur l'herbe is one of my favorite paintings of his.

Day 2, idea stolen from my sister, Gina.

Spaghetti With Carbonara Sauce Recipe This foolproof recipe for silky, guanciale- and cheese-sauced spaghetti carbonara uses a double boiler to prevent egg yolks from curdling.

I use Serious Eats' carbonara recipe, which, if you follow to the letter, will transport you to a Roman piazza.

Whether it's de rigueur or not, tonight I'm whipping up that old Roman favorite - rigatoni carbonara. My sister and a pal are coming by. Easy peasy makes everyone happy. Also looking forward to a chilled dry martini followed by some wine.

I love, love, love Stanley Spencer. I've been to a tiny museum in Cookham on Thames with loads of his painting!

First post, idea stolen from my sister, Gina.

Choose 20 books that have stayed with you or influenced you. One book per day for 20 days, in no particular order. No explanations, no reviews, just covers!
