Books I should read

Here are a handful of books hanging out in my Amazon shopping cart waiting to be purchased:

• Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly - Anthony Bourdain
• The Open Society Paradox: Why The 21st Century Calls For More Openness--Not Less - Dennis Bailey
• The Know-It-All : One Man's Humble Quest to Become the Smartest Person in the World - A. J. Jacobs
• On Food and Cooking : The Science and Lore of the Kitchen - Harold McGee
• How Buildings Learn: What Happens After They're Built - Stewart Brand

Chanukah starts tomorrow. Maybe I'll get one of them. :-)
