I found two pie recipes with cornmeal in the filling while going through my cookbooks today: pineapple-coconut chess pie and chocolate-pecan chess pie.
Cornmeal isn't very common as an ingredient in pies; the two chess pie recipes are the first I've found so far. I'm looking forward to finding more!

Found a recipe that specifically calls for corn oil. Think this might be the first one that I've found in my books so far!
Typically the recipes call for vegetable oil

I took far too many photos of this confiding Ruby-crowned Kinglet. But, given how uncooperative these birds typically are, when you've got a good one, you take a life's-worth of photos, 'cause it may never happen again!

New paper!
I am excited about it, since it has some very cool contributions on:
-Status of Invasive ectomycorrhizal fungi
-Definition of what is a invasive mycorhizal 🍄
-Cool picture of trees being brought from Europe in 1920!
