A James Bond movie is nothing without champagne, and so it only stands to reason that any good James Bond spoof needs a silly scene where corks get popped.

Fortunately the first Casino Royale (1967) rises to the occasion.

There’s an attention to detail in this book — the kind of flour, the way the dough is stretched, the toppings that get chosen — that you don’t often see in cookbooks devoted to this humble, much loved weeknight staple.

Lift-system cabinets doors — doors that open or fold up, as opposed to out — have been around for a few years, but they’ve gotten sleeker and more user-friendly, and that’s what caught my eye at this year’s Kitchen and Bath Industry Show in Las Vegas.
