Notes from my kitchen: October 2026 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
First, I want to say a heartfelt thank you to those of you who pledged subscriptions to my newsletter. I couldn’t find a way on Substack to personally reply to your thoughtful notes, but each one of them brought me infinite joy.

A swimming holiday has become an annual tradition for me ever since I discovered The Big Blue Swim online and signed up for my first swim-focused adventure in Lefkada. Greece had only recently re-opened its borders in 2021, and our international group received a warm welcome everywhere, especially when the waiters realized how ravenous we were.
