Food, Agriculture, Impact Strategy (sometimes poker) and often Edgar the luck dragon dog. Working on being less snarky.

Went for a good run this morning so fairly certain adding homemade ice cream to my overnight oats is a positive move.

I set out to lower my blood pressure, which ten years ago was regularly 140-50/80-90 range. I’m now 120/60-70. Running. Diet. And quitting a stressful job. And maybe Edgar.

This morning let’s go from full sun to the shade & celebrate the humble yet proud valerian, aka the garden heliotrope (to turn to the sun).

Year 3 of Ozark Sundrop. It’s actually a great ground cover, which I wasn’t expecting. The bloom is so bright it’s tough to get a good photo.

Can’t believe after dozens of years raising hens this is my first time making a frittata. Sausage, orange bell, spinach, two cheese & garden herbs. Double flipped and all. Form got a little whacked on 2nd flip but the texture was perfect.

Last night Edgar ate 6 of my homemade Italian sausage that were thawing out. I couldn’t even be made at her as I’m the idiot that left them where she could get them. But I am fat shaming her all day.

We ordered 5.5 yards of compost. What I didn’t realize is that’s about 14,000lbs that I have to wheel from driveway to stone steps and down into backyard (and wheelbarrow back up). I’m going to be totally ripped by Monday.

Listening to a great discussion on infant formula crisis and the failure of our federal agencies to address concentration and vulnerabilities in such an important sector. Two of my journalist heroes @hbottemiller and @leahjdouglas at @OrganicTrade Policy Conference.

GOP: it’s not guns it’s mental health! - ok, so we agree that’s a big issue; let’s allocate more funding for public mental health, from prevention to treatment. GOP: This is America. We don’t do socialism!

Watching the robins working and tossing soil with their beaks in my garden and all I can think is that the regenerative ag folks who frown on even the slightest tining would not be pleased.

A fund called Ethical Capital Partners bought Pornhub. The investment world is so full of creative types.

8 hours of patience - and clothes that need to be boiled to get the smoke out of them.
