Pi day pie extravaganza. Chicken pot pie and non-dairy raspberry chocolate custard. Nice way to celebrate the end of a good week.

Beef Wellington pre-cook. I’m happy enough with this that even if it isn’t perfect, I’ll be ok with it.

800 g of mushrooms and 300 g of shallots cooks down pretty much to nothing. But oh what a nothing it is. It smells like heaven.

Dueling knives for the duxelles is a lot of fun.

The pic is a curry comb. The name comes from the french word corroyer (older versions spelled differently that yielded curry). At least from what I have found, it translates to "prepare" or "make ready." As in to make your horse ready, not prepare your curry.

The push advertising is hitting a little too close to home right now. Thinking of buying one though. It couldn't hurt right? #academia #science #research

Walking across campus in this weather on salt strewn and icy sidewalks I saw a student reevaluating their choice to rollerblade to class.

NY, VT and NH make a lot of very nice maple syrup. So while your pancakes may not be dry, your avocado toast is going to look like this:

Your name in Landsat imagery is amazing. If you keep resubmitting the request it keeps changing the image and it just got better and better.

The fantastic Leadership Scholars in my CAS 100 class organized this super cool event on the topic of banned books and censorship. If you are in the Syracuse University community and want to hear from authors who have had their books banned, stop in this evening.

The soil test kit pH range units are not exactly satisfying the geochemist in me. The result from the dingy liquid on the left means near pH 7. The tubes on the right will probably show me what our sad garden already revealed this year - nutrients are low. Glacial till on limestone - no good.

I was looking for a list of climate scientists who have testified before congress and google yielded this autofill gem. Have you tested positive for climate change too?

This El Niño has the northern tier of the US absolutely roasting. December anomalies were crazy.

That is about 100 dollars worth of bananas in the Moscone Center here at AGU. I guess I should have gotten into the banana business instead of geochemistry.
Very expensive bananas

A #FossilFriday entry for my first real post over here on Bluesky. Here we see my dog’s efforts at cleaning the flour from a pizza night mess that ends up in the grout lines between our kitchen floor tiles. All I see is my favorite trace fossil Zoophycos.
