520			_a"New Brooms" by Robert J. Shores is a collection of essays written in the early 20th century. The essays delve into various aspects of life and society, combining humor and philosophy as the author reflects on topics ranging from the culinary arts to the literary world. The opening portion introduces a character, Bartholomew Buttercake, who presents an insightful and humorous perspective on the relationship between cooking and philosophy, portraying cooking as an artistic expression that reveals character and societal values. The beginning of "New Brooms" sets the tone with a humorous letter addressed to the editor of a magazine, where Bartholomew Buttercake explains his background as a cook and his philosophical musings on human nature as observed through the lens of culinary choices. He shares his belief that the kitchen serves as a unique observatory for understanding people, using cooking not only to nourish others but also as a medium for self-expression and philosophical thoughts. Throughout the opening, Buttercake offers a witty critique of society's values while tying them back to the art of cooking, indicating a blend of humor and thoughtful commentary that characterizes the rest of the collection.
