Hey, who wants something nice?

So I was on tour this month, and when I was doing my event for the Princeton University Library and the Princeton Public Library, I ended up at the graveyard, where I found this gravestone:

Spring is a happy season but it has neither citrus nor stone fruit. Summer is a sad season but it has stone fruit. Fall is a happy season but it has neither citrus nor stone fruit. Winter is a sad season but it has citrus.

I was impressed by this WRDW report on the H2A guestworker program and peach farming

I-TEAM UPDATE: The cost of the American dream at the price of a peach
The survival of Titan Farm's American dream is dependent on laborers. Labor it can only find through the H2A program.

I can’t believe there’s STILL no option that lets me pay to read one (1) online article from a newspaper I do not wish to subscribe to.

Goodbye, Social Pig. You are the closest grocery store to my house and have the largest assortment of country meats, plus consistent local produce and Blenheim Ginger Ale.

This is true right now but it won’t be forever!!! It used to be the case that Order the Cabbage, now every single restaurant has charred cabbage with a tepid tahini sauce; before that it was Order the Brussels Sprouts and we all know how that ended up. Seize the beans while you can.
A personal cheat code for life, I’ve found, is Order The Beans

Chefs only put beans on a menu if they have cool bean ideas

Great story on how SC farmers frost-protect blueberry plants, encasing them in ice to save them

With killer cold threatening its St. Helena blueberry crop, Coosaw Farms fought ice with ice
The snow turned St. Helena Island into a winter wonderland, but the scene wasn’t pretty for farmers with valuable crops in the ground.

A whole great take.

I just unearthed a memory of my roommate Shawn in 2001, on hearing Beat Happening, saying “Eva, I hate this as much as you hate Andrew WK!”

I love it when the Beezer’s kitchen starts taking orders from people further back in line and everyone is ready to call out their order, just so in the know and decisive

The way they are trying to reorganize Eater right now is, I cannot emphasize this enough, so fucking stupid. We are working to mitigate this impact as much as possible for our unit. And good job Vox Media, you just made us all even more pissed as we head into bargaining our third contract
Hello Bluesky. Sucks that this is our first post. A statement from the Vox Media Union and @wgaeast.bsky.social on today's layoffs. Please stay tuned for more details on how you can support our colleagues who were impacted today.

“Eater is reorganizing its cities coverage into a regional model in order to most efficiently serve its audience’s needs.” Seeing as Eater Carolinas already WAS a regional model, I’m guessing this leaves us truly, newly boned.
