    Hazel thanks for your note. (LOVE The Sartorialist!!). All black is often the default colour because it's the easier to unify (imagine an ensemble full of slightly different shades of red), it's easy on the eyes, and the audience tends to focus more on the music than if the ensemble were wearing different colours. The problem with saying go for it, wear any colour is what one person considers stylish another will consider completely inappropriate. There there's the issue of colour clashing. And in classical music, there are known stereotypes about what kind of dress is associated with certain types of music. Opera performers (and audiences) tend to go all out with style and flamboyance; Baroque performers (and audiences) tend not to consider fashion a big deal and are very low-key with their apparel. Ultimately, no, I don't think ensembles should be able to wear any colour; then it looks like a rehearsal.

    I would love to see a blog about making evseral meals from cooking once! Example: when I buy an eye of round, I buy a larger one and roast it with extra potatoes and carrots than needed for one meal. The next day I make hash with the leftover veggies, chopped onion and meat keeping enough meat out for my third meal of homemade vegetable beef soup. A real time saver during busy weeknights! Would love more ideas of cooking once and getting a head start on weekly meals!

    I must admit, Sukham Ayu is one book that I will take with me wherever I go. It has adarely moved from the bookshelf in the living room, to my bedside table, and now it is in the kitchen where I refer to it every morning as I plan my meals! God Bless You! And keep making deliciously healthy books, please.

    Oh, I would like to add a pic to my Hebrew blog post on this, and nothing available, as far as I can see.
