From the Nets
Turtle excluder used in the Gulf shrimp fishery. NOAA Fisheries Collection. Today's fresh catch from around the web:
• Ruth Reichl's salt-crusted chickens and roast pig - "the most magical night of my life."
• Frank Bruni's guide to midrange eating in out-of-the-way Rome. Plus, drinking while taking a little off the top.
• Jonathan Gold, tastemaker: "If the dilution is correct and it has the proper chill, it almost doesn't matter what's in it."
• John T. Edge eats canvasback ducks with Mark Twain and tracks Lowcountry cuisine's working-class roots in North Charleston.
• Sugar Cane and Shortstops - the Times on Mark Kurlansky's new book about that other American pastime.
• Martha Stewart, meet David Mas Masumoto. Mr. Mas Masumoto, meet Martha.
Join all of the above (sans Ms. Stewart) in Key West this January for The Hungry Muse: An Exploration of Food in Literature.

Each January, we explore a different literary theme through lectures, panel presentations, readings, informal gatherings, and discussions. In January 2011, we explore food in literature with our 29th annual Seminar, THE HUNGRY MUSE.
