The Weekday Approach to Eating Less Meat

For many followers of the home cooking internet, Jenny Rosenstrach’s Dinner: A Love Story has been a steady hand holding the whisk for the past decade. Originally a blog and books series, now also a newsletter and podcast, Rosenstrach has shown a knack for creative and current recipe development with style and a strong voice that presents culinary ideas big and small. Reading through the author’s empathetic Project, Pantry, Purpose series, written mostly over the past 18 months, it proves to be a valuable cooking resource, but also a gutsy journal of the post–Before Times. Her late-March 2020 banana bread isolation journal reminds me of so many gray days from that time. But we were on Zoom in late October talking about relatively sunnier days, a...

Big Bird Is a Communist: Muppet Vaccination Draws Backlash From Republicans, Conservatives – Newsweek

Fictional Sesame Street character Big Bird's announcement Saturday that he has received the COVID-19 vaccine drew swift backlash from hard-right Republicans led by Texas Senator Ted Cruz. Vaccinations for U.S. children between 5 and 11 years old began this week after the U.S. fully approved the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for the age range. Sesame Street, which has previously launched vaccine ad campaigns, deployed two of its most popular characters to encourage parents to vaccinate their kids. "I got the COVID-19 vaccine today! My wing is feeling a little sore, but it'll give my body an extra protective boost that keeps me and others healthy," tweeted Big Bird, a walking, talking yellow bird character who's supposed to be six years old. "Ms. @EricaRHill even said I've been getting vaccines s...

Australia begins vaccine booster rollout as more curbs ease in Sydney – Reuters

Patrons dine-in at a bar by the harbour in the wake of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) regulations easing, following an extended lockdown to curb an outbreak, in Sydney, Australia, October 22, 2021. REUTERS/Jaimi Joy SYDNEY, Nov 8 (Reuters) - Australia began administering booster shots of Pfizer's (PFE.N) COVID-19 vaccine on Monday as millions of people in its largest city, Sydney, woke up to more freedom amid an accelerating immunisation drive.

Sydney and Melbourne, its largest cities and worst hit by the Delta wave, have been racing through their inocul...

‘Wicked’: Fans Petition Producers to Not Cast James Corden in Movie Adaptation – Hollywood Reporter

Fans are petitioning producers behind a movie adaptation of the hit musical Wicked to not cast James Corden. The petition, posted on Change.org and addressed directly to Universal which is producing the film, has racked up over 21,000 signatures already. The petition states simply: “James Corden in no way shape or form should be in or near the production of Wicked the movie… that’s pretty much it.” Corden was trending on social media over the weekend after major casting announcements were made for the Wicked movie with Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande playing leads Elphaba and Glinda, respectively. The enmity towards Corden stems from his ubiquity in recent stage to screen adaptations of beloved musicals, including his turn in Tom Hooper’s widely panned Cats,...
