This is a very simple and refreshing warm-season soup that is both refreshing and nourishing. I do not have a typed recipe for this (though I do have pictures) and these are the ingredients that I used: Orange juice, coffee, triple sec, sugar, a small amount of cornstarch, heavy cream, yogurt, and of course freshContinue reading “Chilled Blueberry Soup with Espresso, Triple Sec, and Yogurt Garnish”

How To Simply Live
The title of this post is a question not a statement, and I pose it mostly to myself. It could easily be rearranged to say How to Live Simply and have the same meaning. To live simply and to simply live are one-in-the-same in my opinion…and I’m still trying to figure out how to doContinue reading “How To Simply Live”

Bike Share
I had mentioned in an earlier post about a recent day trip to Toronto and how I was impressed not only with the amount of people on bikes, but also the somewhat new bike-share program called Bixi (click here or here to read more about Bixi). Bixi began in Montreal but quickly established itself inContinue reading “Bike Share”

A light but bulky load (the opposite of #315): An 8L plastic bucket, in which I carried raw bread dough to work this morning. A foil container containing a small amount of sauteed prime rib trimmings. A canvas bag containing books; actual and electronic. Large, medium, and small cardboard boxes–one inside the other–which I usedContinue reading “Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#316)”

Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#315)…and a couple of comments.
The book, Wild Fermentation, a u-lock, a 6ft cable lock, and 19 bricks. Firstly, no I did not think that those measly bungee cords would hold the bricks if I banked too far or hit a large bump…they mostly just kept them in place (and I surely did not want a repeat of what happenedContinue reading “Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#315)…and a couple of comments.”
