Moishe's Bagel is a band i stumbled upon while searching for bagel recipes. they play a "triple-distilled brew of Eastern European dance music, Middle Eastern rhythms", and they stream! do check it out. my bagels turned out well, too, on the second attempt.

secondly, as i was down with a migraine from hell today, i managed to catch up on a good many podcasts. there's always a silver lining! i learned all about the american composer Amy Beach, who was acclaimed in her day but unknown to me. later on, i was delighted to find out that her name is actually spelled "Beach", as i'd hoped, not "Beech" as i assumed.
