Welcome to Volume 4 of Supper Club from The Nucleus Group!

This week we are bringing you a multi-course meal featuring music curated by Abbi Waxman, curiosities ranging from manhole covers to endangered birds, and a Brazilian indulgence to carry you into a wonder-filled weekend.

THIS WEEK’S CURATOR: Abbi Waxman, author extraordinaire:

“I have teenage daughters, and luckily they like to share their music with me. These 7 songs are all created by young artists who bring a new sensibility to the age old topic of love. The fact that each generation finds enough beauty in it to create art and novelty fills me with wonder (and gratitude).”

Here’s what we’re pondering this week:

1. Design Everywhere You Look #140, Ben Strak

2. Millions of Mosquitos Will Rain Down on Hawaii to Save an Iconic Bird, Sarah Wild

3. The 12 Greatest, Strangest, Most Transfixing Dance Scenes in the History of Crime Movies, Dwyer Murphy

FOOD: Bolo de Fubá (cornmeal cake)

ORIGIN: Brazil

STORY: This delicious and easy cake is perfect with coffee in the morning or afternoon. Bolo de fubá is highly customizable, so don’t be shy getting creative with toppings or additions (i.e. the author loves a little cinnamon sugar on top).
