New trees just dropped in the Heights. Ten saplings! One of them is a redbud, which I'm especially excited about... Believe it or not, the grant paying for these trees comes from PSE&G. www.tapinto.net/towns/jersey...

New loaf! This is what King Arthur Baking Co. calls the Kansas sunflower bread. It includes bulgur, oats, sunflower seeds, eggs, and honey, which is a longer ingredients list than I usually handle for bread.

In 2022 and 2023 I became somewhat obsessed with the warnings about surviving “radiation emergencies” that were posted around northern New Jersey. For this week’s DOOMSDAY MACHINES, I share my obsession with you, and analyze the motivations, messages, and methods of the campaign. 🐕

I’ve been waiting for this book Tumult On The Mountain to arrive so I can scan some of these amazing photos of early extractive industry in the middle Appalachians. The White oaks in these photos are the biggest I’ve ever seen.
