Introduction Hi, I'm Madeleine. I blog here and at Lunar Camel Co. (a Wordpress blog, so I can't link to it in this little box). Tiny Banquet Committee has always been a food blog but otherwise there’s little thematic continuity. I like it that way! However, if you poke around in the archives, you'll notice that the focus has always been on cooking, not restaurants. I don't enjoy taking pictures of my food in restaurants, for starters. I like to cook. I also like vintage cookbooks (books, generally) and occasionally my interests in music and film surface here too. I've lived in NYC since the late 90s, mostly in the East Village.

Your people want to make a statue in your honor. What will it be made out of and what victory will it commemorate?

No victory needed. Fruit (apricots; grapes; pears; peaches; melons; berries of every conceivable variety, but most numerously Alpine strawberries; 'wax jamboo'; well-ripened pineapples); croquembouche; many-colored jellies around the base; flowers (lily of the valley; mimosa; violets; lilacs).
