My avatar photo, my hand cradling a red maple leaf, was taken during early autumn in Guadalupe Mountains National Park. Big supporter of the NPS and any other public spaces where we can learn and enjoy.
One last set of photos from my day trip to the Hoosier National Forest. Isn't this little church twee? There's so much history preserved here. Thank you to the *federal employees* who make it possible for us to enjoy. Grateful. Sending all my support.

Hickory Ridge fire tower in the Charles Deam Wilderness area of the Hoosier National Forest was built in 1936 by the Civilian Conservation Corps. It was an intense experience climbing it during a wind advisory.

Scenic View Restaurant is locally and family-owned. Paying with cash on Economic Blackout Day so the credit card companies don’t get a cut. Come to think of it, I may use cash more often.

Eating well on a budget

I love my still-new pot. It can fit an entire head of shredded cabbage. Cabbage is so cheap, but it tastes like a million bucks. Two-thirds of this mass will go in the freezer, and the remaining will be eaten over a week.

Eating well on a budget

Preparing my favorite vegetable. A little olive oil and a little salt in the pan. Then I serve this over brown rice with a double serving of the crunchy chili crisp for a bit of extra protein.

One can restart their year anew at any time. Hoppin’ John with Asian, instead of Cajun, spices. I’ll serve this with brown rice, cilantro, and a drizzle of extra hot chili crisp.

Setting an intention to have people over more regularly in these isolating times. I love serving my loved ones nourishing and satisfying food I’ve prepared myself. This was last night’s practice run on a recipe I’m rusty with to prepare for tomorrow’s guests.
