Imbued with generosity, the spirit of community, and the flavours of a rich and varied culture -NIGELLA LAWSONCarpathia invites you to explore Romania's unique, bold and delicious cuisine: an exciting and unexpected amalgamation of all its diverse influences. As a cultural melting pot its character is rooted in many traditions from Greek, Turkish and Slavic in the south and east, to Austrian, Hungarian and Saxon in the north and west. From chargrilled aubergines, polenta fritters and butterbean hummus, to tangy bors, stuffed breads and Viennese-style layer cakes, Irina Georgescu has created over 100 mouth-watering dishes that are easy to make and a joy to share. Lavishly illustrated with stunning photographs both of the delicious recipes and the breathtaking Romanian landscapes which inspired them, this beautiful cook book will fast become a staple of any kitchen lucky enough to house it. "At a time when we are all forced to stay at home, travelling in the kitchen can be a great comfort. And I have been so grateful for Irina Georgescu for taking me to Romania through the pages of her wonderful book, Carpathia. Every page is imbued with generosity, the spirit of community, and the flavours of a rich and varied culture: it makes for an uplifting, inspiring and gorgeously transporting read right now."Nigella Lawson "I couldn't be happier to see one of my favourite cuisines being represented by a voice as warm and thoughtful as Irina Georgescu's. Carpathia is full of delicious and interesting recipes and photos that will tempt you to travel to the Carpathian Mountains immediately."Olia Hercules, author of Mamushka and Kaukasis. "I've spent the day reading Carpathia by Irina Georgescu... I can't wait to make her smoked ham hock with butter beans, oven-baked barley with chicken, peppers and mushrooms, fried chicken with caramelised quince and - most of all - ossobucco with dill oil and horseradish sauce... Carpathia is a book I'm going to get stuck into this autumn."Diana Henry "The recipes are both wonderfully enticing and extremely approachable, and there's a deftness to the writing that is very beguiling.... And the food is fascinating: a mix of the familiar and the unfamiliar... It offers a welcome window into Romanian culture. And the best thing about it is the love for family and country that just sings through the pages." Fuchsia Dunlop "An absolutely beautiful book showcasing Romanian food as a wondrous amalgam of Europe's diverse cuisines. Real, delicious and accessible - I will be making everything from the placinta to prajitura, cremsnit to cataif!" Helen Goh, co-author of Sweet with Yotam Ottolenghi. "Carpathia takes the reader roaming through Romania from Transylvania to the Danube Delta while introducing dozens of satisfying recipes that express the landscape, culture and joys of traditional Romanian hospitality. This is a book of many virtues, filled with new ideas, flavours and insights."Caroline Eden, author of Samarkand and Black Sea. "A beautiful book full of life and flavour; I not only want to try so many of the recipes, I now want to visit the country that inspired them." Mark Diacono, author of Sour, The New Kitchen Garden and A Year at Otter Farm.

Nice blanket
Color: Southern Blues, Size: Full/Queen (90 in x 90 in), Color: Southern Blues, Size: Full/Queen (90 in x 90 in)
This is a really nice blanket. If fits on my bed very well. It went through the laundry really nice and didn’t fade or ripper. Have any strings come undone. I like the very light green color. My pictures aren’t great, but one side is the underneath side, the white and then the light green is the other picture. This is well-made you can see in the picture up close that it’s so really well. All layers are sewn together, so you do not have bunching up when you wash the blanket. It is super soft with a good weight. It’s not super lightweight, but it’s not heavy at all. Overall, I’m very pleased with it and I would recommend.

Soft, Lightweight, and Perfect for Year-Round Comfort
Color: Polar Blue, Size: King (90 in x 108 in)
This Berkshire 3-layer fleece blanket is exactly what I was hoping for. It is incredibly soft and has a cozy cotton-like feel without being too heavy or bulky. The king size is generous and fits the bed nicely, but it is also comfortable enough to use on the couch. I really like that it feels warm and breathable at the same time, so it works well for different seasons. The Polar Blue color is soft and pretty, and the blanket has a nice textured look that makes it feel a little more elevated than a basic fleece blanket. It also washes well, which is a huge plus. After washing, it still feels soft and comfortable, and it did not lose its shape. Overall, this is a great blanket if you want something cozy, lightweight, and easy to care for. I would definitely recommend it.

I love this because it folds up easily & does not take up much space but keeps you warm and secure.
Color: Southern Blues, Size: King (90 in x 108 in)
Heavy and BIG. The color is great. Its not very thick but it does have some heft to it. I love this because it folds up easily and does not take up much space but keeps you warm and secure. Its got a waffle type contour texture. It says its fleece but to me it did not feel like fleece. However, I have never heard of berkshire fleece before-- I would not guess this is fleece at all. Its not fuzzy in the least. It is breathable and the color is muted and perfect. For a king sized blanket this is surprisingly portable yet substantial enough to keep the entire bed covered and warm!

Thin, summer weight throw, quality could be better
Color: Southern Blues, Size: Throw (50 in x 60 in), Color: Southern Blues, Size: Throw (50 in x 60 in)
This is a very light weight blanket and the "fleece" is no where to be seen. The blanket looks like cotton but has a very synthetic feel to it. Three layers implies some weight but it is thin. The construction is sloppy, see images, where the stitching looks slap dash to the point where it cannot be reversed. I liked the color, the blue is a little on the aqua side but it is a very nice calming hue. The stitching is quilt like and nicely done. I noticed other reviews felt like it was a medium weight but the only time I would use this would be to use as a cover if the AC went out. To me, the blanket is decorative and not particularly useful.

Average quality lightweight throw, not sold on the color
Color: Southern Blues, Size: Throw (50 in x 60 in), Color: Southern Blues, Size: Throw (50 in x 60 in)
This blanket is fairly soft and lightweight, and better suited for the summer months. I don't think the texture and "Southern Blues" color looks as nice in person as in the photos; less cozy and more like a spare blanket you might find in a hotel closet. Interestingly the care tag says that the outer faces are cotton, but the blanket feels polyester and the content tag indicates the same. The stitching and durability feel ok, and it will probably hold up for the occasional machine washing and low heat drying. Overall it's a fine warm season throw but not particularly notable. I would probably recommend one of the darker colors.
