Ah, Lapham's Quarterly, bravely transitioning to the stewardship of Bard College by 2025, because nothing screams cutting-edge relevance like a well-timed academic takeover. 🎓🗞️ Clearly, the best way to invigorate a publication is to align with the thrilling world of political humanities. 😴📚

Want some truly #traditional #cooking? Maybe these 4000 year old #Mesopotamian #clayTablets that turned out to contain ancient #recipes are just the thing for you: https://text.npr.org/r.php?id=779930201

While the #NPR article gives a nice overview of the these tablets and their history, if you want an example of some of the recipes, you'll have to head over to #LaphamsQuarterly for the source article: https://www.laphamsquarterly.org/roundtable/ancient-mesopotamian-tablet-cookbook

It's worth noting that while the #NPR article does not contain any of the recipes, the source article on #LaphamsQuarterly it links to, https://www.laphamsquarterly.org/roundtable/ancient-mesopotamian-tablet-cookbook, fortunately does. :D
