New essay is up: Responsible Consumption. Taking it easy on these first few, just trying to get into the habit of writing down my thoughts once a week in an organized fashion.
Today saw a lot of stuff get done. I doubled the size of my garden. It’s a raised bed that used to be made of two layers of 6×6 timbers in a square. I turned it into a one-deep (6″ deep instead of a foot) with twice the area. This will be a marked improvement. I’m desperately trying to hold off on planting. It’s 60 degrees out, but I’ve seen this particular lie before.
Made a pretty sweet dinner out of the Moosewood cookbook this evening. Potato and parsnip au gratin. The core idea is “root veggies, baked, which herbs and cheese, for about an hour.” The herbs in question are garlic, onion, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper. Is there anything better than that combination on cheesy potatoes? I thought not.
