Luckily for the world, the Germans over-designed, over-engineered and ran out of time and resources to build the worlds best fighting vehicles and their complexity often made them extremely unreliable as well. The Soviets were cranking out T-34 by the thousands fully knowing they often wouldn't last more than 10 min in battle but the sheer numbers would also win over technological superiority. |

Just started Melissa Clark's, "The New Essentials of Frence Cooking". One of those cookbooks that includes several pages of history of the recipe and spin-off recipes & sauces (coq au vin also has a beef Bourguignon, etc). Looking forward to return of the cool weather when it is 'fun' to cook.

Conspirata by Robert Harris. It's been on my bookshelf for quite a while and I've been meaning to read it for a long time. When unpacking at the new house I set aside some of his titles, and found I bought another copy of the same book in the UK during one of my business trips, but the title is Lustrum there. 2nd book in his trilogy about Cicero.
