Morning walk in the backyard, November 15, 2025 😀 I’ve learned to love “winter interest” in our native garden. There’s no cleaning until next year in the spring!

I haven’t tried Jim Lahey’s no-knead bread recipe since 2007; it’s time again! This sticky dough will now sit for 20 hours. I’ll update tomorrow! #ciacooksjerseycity

“Bake until the meats falls off the bone,” the recipe said. #ciacooksjerseycity

I'll get back to "party unity" as soon as the Senate Minority Leader tells us if he voted for the Democratic party nominee for mayor of his city.

I'm tired of party unity only ever running one way.

Now about the HBLR…
New Jersey, it is the honor of my life to earn your trust to become this great state’s 57th Governor.

I promise to listen, lead with courage, and never forget who I serve.

New York City and New Jersey: this is the first time in a LONG TIME I’m going to bed not nervous about who the winners are when I wake up.

Back at Panaderya Salvaje and got meat pastries: dinakdakan with a jammy egg on top and chili crisp (it’s a Filipino dish using pig face parts); a croissant spilling with kare-kare and pickled onions (another Filipino dish with coconut milk and peanut butter); and a sausage roll #ciaeatsjerseycity

How bad is your app when it can’t support all the marathon trackers in the world the one day that it matters?

I’m re-reading “The Catcher in the Rye” after, oh, 30 years? I was trying to remember if I re-read it some time in college;” I don’t think so; I did read all of Salinger’s books & short stories during that time & have collected copies of them during my travels. 💙📚 #ciaheartsbooks #booksky

“Yazzan, my nine-year-old son, asked me if the war had ended,” @mosababutoha.bsky.social writes, about Donald Trump’s ceasefire announcement. “He wanted to know if we could party. ‘Yes, Yazzan,’ I told him. ‘They are just finalizing the deal. Let’s wait.’ ”
