I will be honest. Not sure how exactly I stumbled onto your writing. An NY Times reference? Anyway, thoroughly enjoying all I have read to date. I am a cookbook lover. My daughter gave me Alison Roman’s book for my birthday last year. I have not made anything from the book yet. It takes me awhile with a new book. I read and re-read. Very curious about where you will land at ‘retirement’. My husband and I, (married 36 years yesterday), laugh about where we will go when we retire. Been in the same house for 32 years. Nowhere sounds right. We are not Florida people as far as we can tell:). One daughter in Chicago and one in California. Do we draw straws? Please share what you bake from her book.
So nice to meet you, Patty! Looks like we will land in Portugal, though we have a number of things to figure out. As for Alison Roman, I almost always love her recipes and have been enjoying the baking book very much. The banana bread is delicious and so are the tartes and galettes. Hope you have fun exploring her books.

I wish we (me) were brave enough to move to another country! Enjoy every moment.
