"Chef Celeste’s Louisiana Kitchen" celebrates the bounty of Louisiana. With recipes that are easy to follow, the cookbook helps fledgling chefs build the confidence to manage fresh, farm-to-table meals at home. Did you catch Chef Celeste's live cooking demo? Watch it here: bit.ly/3WwQdUT

Cookbook titled 'Chef Celeste's Louisiana Kitchen' by Celeste Gill featuring Southern dishes and a festive King Cake with purple, green, and gold sugar on a plate.

Two copies of the book Chef Celeste’s Louisiana Kitchen are stacked horizontally against a white background, showing the blue spines with white lettering and a small golden emblem.

I am reminded tonight how important it is for women to be inspired by other brave, pioneering women as I watch dozens and dozens of women post gift links to Jane Goodall obituaries and articles Keep it up, ladies.

No matter where you live, please consider adopting an animal from your local shelter. I promise you they will brighten your life beyond measure. They are the comfort on hard days. Even if you can't fully adopt, your local shelter could use help fostering. Reach out to them to see.

Skimming through slide decks from my erstwhile "Data Infrastructure" class, I happened upon this treasure from the Old Place:

Neil deGrasse Tyson tweets: "In school, rarely do we learn how data become facts, how faces become knowledge, and how knowledge becomes wisdom." Matthew Gabriele quote tweets: "Literally, the Humanities."

Turned Earth, my fifth collection of poems, is available for pre-order from LSU Press. The official release date is 2/7/25, and I hope you will consider giving the book a pre-release boost by ordering a copy. I would also be thrilled to visit classes and give readings! lsupress.org/978080718418...

This is a book cover. The background is an abstract watercolor painting, divided into upper and lower halves by a horizon line. Above the line is a kind of sky, composed of blue and green washes; to the right, sitting on the line, a chartreuse figure overlaps a brown, humped figure. Below the line is the text: Turned Earth, poems, Brad Richard.

I truly feel sorry for Americans. They’re going to face an assault on their everyday lives in multiple areas. Health is going to be top of the list if Trump follows through by putting this nut in charge. There have actually been *zero* cases of cervical cancer in those who’ve had the vaccine.

Gardasil HPV vaccine appears to be increasing the risk of cervical cancer in vaccinated age groups just as COVID vaccines raise the risk of COVID.

Giuliano Finelli started as Bernini’s assistant and became a master of fine detail, as in this impressive sculpture of Maria Duglioli Barberini (1626, Louvre). So delicate, it was originally displayed in a wire cage to protect it

Hey, I'm happy to announce I have a new book coming early next year, "You Are My Sunshine: Jimmie Davis and the Biography of a Song." It's the story of early country music, lots of Louisiana political history, and some civil rights politics. You can pre-order signed copies at Robertmannbooks.com
