A thought about size
Understanding the world requires you to take a certain distance from it. Things that are too small to see with the naked eye, such as molecules and atoms, we magnify. Things that are too large, such as cloud formations, river deltas, constellations, we reduce.

Back in NYC
And after a month, this is the floor.
What a huge feeling of relief it was to see the "Welcome to Pennsylvania" sign coming in from Ohio.

Neighbors
Is it weird to know your neighbor by their park parked outside the public library, but not in person?

Coffee and bananas
are an amusing topic when you ostensibly are going to run a locally (bioregionally) sourced cafe in northeast Ohio.
Bananas are also silly cheap when you buy the $1 pre-dumpster produce bags at the supermarket.

Vegan comfort food
After spending much of the day doing burst pipe flood remediation and cleanup in a friend's house, alone, I needed some food comfort.
Onions, tofu, poblano peppers, garlic.
The best part about this meal: the checker at the Giant Eagle was baffled by the pablano peppers. As if they'd fallen from the sky. Even after I spelled it several possible ways (the shelf tag spells it "pablano".)

It's an odd modern world we live in when writing and mailing a post card is such a visceral experience.

SAUERKRAUT.
How many of you, my faithful readers, have I played the "foods on a deserted island" game with?
Well, I think if it had to be only one, it would be sauerkraut. Preferably delicious homemade lacto fermented sauerkraut.
But, yeah: sauerkraut. It was the only thing missing in my previous hippie slop post.
