The beginning of spring always feels like a revitalization.
It's a chance for fresh perspectives.
Long walks in the sunshine, taking in the riot of blossom, the dangling catkins and the plucky green shoots.
This show marks the moment with an homage to the season.
We'll find out about the art of traversing the streets of Rome with author Cynthia Zarin.
And we'll pop some corks and awaken the senses with sommelier Honey Spencer.
As Confect Spring magazine hits the newsstands, this edition of the show gives listeners a sneak peek of what can be found in its pages.
We'll hear an interview with musician Marike Hackman, and we'll discover Julia Lesica's ode to the tradition of pisanki and decorating eggs.
This is Confect Corner, and I'm your host, Sophie Grove.
You just have to show up for it, like, every day, like any other job, really.
Like, I'm not gonna write a song if I'm not sitting with an instrument somewhere quiet.
Like, I can't walk around town and be like, ah, I'm not Paul McCartney dreaming up yesterday, whatever it is, you know, so it's like I have to be there for it.
Natural wine.
No drama is a kind of nod to kind of get over it.
Natural wine is here to stay.
It's how wine was always made, more or less, you know, until like, the last century.
And there's so much to be discovered.
As tanks rolled through the forests of Ukraine's northern border and streams of camouflaged soldiers entered the southern and eastern cities, Lent began.
In a show of resilience and determination to stick to their traditions, women across the country unwrapped their kistki and began to mix their dyes.
Welcome to Confect Corner.
