A perfectly scandalous picnic
Article Abstract:
Edouard Manet's 1863 painting called 'Dejeuner sur l'Herbe' have been described in its time as immoral and vulgar because of the naked woman in the picture. Today, the painting remains scandalous not because of the naked lady but due to the absence of wine in the picnic setting.

In tune with June
Article Abstract:
June, which supposedly marks the start of summer, end of school, Father's Day, the baseball season and weddings, is rather ambiguous and could mean other things to other people. June could also mean lots of work for cooks and lots of mosquitoes for the Uneedabiscuit tribe.

Breaking all the rules
Article Abstract:
Many American restaurants serve excellent fare, while some serve swill. Few, however, can make a decent cup of coffee. This is odd, as US cooks are willing to experiment, often with great success, but they do no seem willing to tackle coffee.
