Aren’t frosted leaves beautiful? I went on a wintry walk down the bridle path this morning and photographed some of the little treasures I found gathered in the grass along the hedgerows. The sky was blue, and the birds were singing; what a glorious (but chilly) day! #nature #art

Meet a Strawberry Poison Dart Frog's ! its bright red coloring serves as a warning signal to predators about the alkaloid toxins in their skin.
Indigenous peoples in Central and South America historically used their poison to coat blow darts for hunting..

A warm and comforting lunch today as I work from home. Based on the Finnish soup lohikeitto, this is inspired by @nigelslater.bsky.social travels to Helsinki.

Sweet Potato Pie is a common alternative to Pumpkin Pie this time a year. They look nearly identical. This recipe from 1965 Fannie Farmer is quick and simple to prepare. No pie crust, no problem. Sweet Potato Pudding for everyone! 🍽️ 🍜 #FoodSky #Cooking #Recipes #RecipeOfTheDay

Just a friendly PSA if you want to commission artists for Christmas presents, which is a great idea btw, you have to get on the ball about it BEFORE Thanksgiving. Like do it today. I'm not doing commissions personally I just want to save you panic or disappointment. Get on that dream artist ASAP 💛

New Mexico is the only state to have a “state smell”
A bunch of grade school kids said that roasting green chile should be our state smell so their teacher had them write our state Congress and in a shocking display they all came together, wrote the bill, and passed it in a matter of weeks
