Come and get it! I used Kent Rollins’ recipe. So easy.
We were trying to remember Pete’s method for pork chops on the grill. Eventually I found the video. Bonus: his reminiscence of working with his grandfather, which puts a touch of melancholy in me.
Solstice ashes have been spread on the garden. Equinox fire is burning.
Business idea: hardware store with a spot in the corner for pie and coffee. Black coffee only. We’ll stock little creamers and sugar packets for the weak willed. Smoking preferred.
I didn’t get to have my Agent Cooper coffee and cherry pie at the diner I stopped at the other day. (They were out of cherry pie.) But Rachel took pity on me.
Are we sure there’s a “masculinity crisis”? Or maybe the problem is that we’re looking to pop culture or internet influencers to understand what it means to be a good man? It doesn’t need to be hard. No need for a set of rules. What qualities do you admire in the good men you know? Be and do that.
Our town had a successful tornado siren test last week. Then, days later, we had a tornado warning as a ferocious storm came through and the siren didn’t go off. Then it went off randomly at just after midnight today, on a clear and lovely night. So all is going well here.
Finished watching Twin Peaks: The Return
Finished watching “Twin Peaks: The Return” (aka, season three). I almost stopped watching it early on. This is clearly Lynch at his most experimental–and that’s not why I watch TV. When I watch TV or movies, I’m just looking for entertainment; I do intellectual activity elsewhere. (I say this only as a description of my own habits. Yours will obviously be different.) I stuck with it, though, and I did feel much more engaged by the end.
Resolution: fall asleep in the sunshine more often
