Loving the look of this new food series, Spain on the Road Again — "The Road Trip of a Lifetime". Gwyneth Paltrow eats churros, barbecues, interviews Frank Gehry and spins around in a Mercedes convertible, New York mega-chef Mario Batali kids around with The New York Times's Mark Bittman, tri-lingual Spanish actress (and NIDA graduate) Claudia Bassols doesn't do much except look pretty, REM's Michael Stipe makes an appearance, and Willie Nelson delivers the theme song. Lots of fun, and I reckon we'll be seeing a lot more of the orange-clog-wearing Batali, a seriously funny man.

Blog Spotlight
The Hannibal Blog is the creation of the extraordinary Andreas Kluth, a writer for the Economist, who takes masterful strides of territory ranging from the 'imposters' of triumph and disaster and great figures of human history such as Hannibal, the Carthaginian general, to media, journalism and storytelling. Writers, look for his posts on "length" and the "closing-tube-door method of writing".
