cooking classic poems with nathan & lexi

my travels thru the internet brought me to a series of videos titled cooking classic poems with oz poet nathan curnow & his daughter lexi.  a novel idea.  & a fun one.  curnow takes a classic poem, by sylvia plath, andre breton, & this one, a recipe translation of the poem 'candy man' by roald dahl, & translates each line into an ingredient to make something, hopefully, yummy.  these videos are a delight to watch.  these recipes might even be good enough for an alternative cookbook of literary texts & the stuff to make food.  which makes sense because don't we call poetry, at least sometimes, food for the soul?  at any rate, bummer that curnow has published only a few of these vids.  & as i hinted at above, this recipe made from the poem by roald dahl is a lot of fun to watch.

bon apetit!
