Apple Cake to die for, but not in Afghanistan

from agnes stuffed in the half-door dingle;

Enough of the world of clericalism. We need food. We really need an Irish Mark Bittman, the Minimalist (An Fear Beag?). An Irish Male Minimalist does not mean sausage and rashers with black puddin.

Don't worry about cups and vanilla beans. Bittman does it easy style. So laid back and droll, it brings you straight into that New England world where everyone is button-down content. Or appears to be.

Do yourself a favor or a favour. Try him out.
