Bio: I'm a freelance translator based in Manchester, UK. I discovered this site after browsing the internet when I had swine flu in 2009, and have not looked back since. I am a huge fan of Elinor M Brent-Dyer's 'Chalet School' series; if you play a 'Chalet School' quiz, there is a good chance it was written by me. I'm also an Evertonian and a Wednesdayite (long story).
I have a cat called Gary.
Hobbies: Writing songs, playing guitar, drums, tuba and keyboards, swimming, cooking, writing, going to gigs, irking the purists.
'The Shipping News' by E. Annie Proulx is set in the province of Newfoundland, and tells the story of Quoyle, a downtrodden journalist who moves there with his aunt and children. To spice up the quiz a bit, I've added some photos. 
Instead, why not try one of these vegetarian dishes from around the world? There's more to vegetarian cooking than brown stews and the odd cheese or mushroom dish. Match the vegetarian dishes to the photos. 
São Tomé and Principe is one of Africa's lesser-known countries. It's a tiny island country off the western coast of Central Africa, and Africa's smallest sovereign state next to the Seychelles. 
This quiz is part of my 'Author's Kitchen' series and focuses on Spanish dishes that feature in the Author's Kitchen (and a couple that don't).
