From the Books: Make the Bread, Buy the Butter
I don’t own this book yet. But I’ve had it checked out of the library a majority of the weeks it’s been in the collection, which means that it’s well past time for me to get off my ass and … Continue reading
Lake Effect!
No, not the snow. Ice cream. For the past couple of years I’ve been hearing about a local outfit that makes artisanal ice cream, called Lake Effect Ice Cream, after our region’s most notable climate feature. Problem is, by ‘local’, … Continue reading

The receiving end
I’m in the midst of a vacation from work which started last Thursday and ends this Thursday morning. We took our annual trip to Ithaca for the Apple Harvest Festival, I’ve spent a lot of quality time with The Book, … Continue reading

Fud notes!
I haven’t blogged about food lately, which is kind of dumb, since I’ve had some good times with food lately. Here are a few items: :: I’ve used my wok more the last few months than in the first twenty … Continue reading
