fun George III letter at the current Library of Congress exhibit in which he tells his PM maybe it's just as well to be shot of us. he didn't know the half of how apt "knavery"--a word we should be bringing back into vogue--would fit 243 years later.

udon with pork, shiitake mushrooms, and baby bok choy. a silly easy dish to crank out in the wok in no time with truckloads of umami. credit to School of Wok (Covent Garden, London) and their YT channel!

Finished a memorable multi-session WAR OF THE RING with my brother last night--a Free military victory! Rohan saved Minas Tirith and Dol Amroth broke the back of Sauron's southern army, killing the Mouth. Woodland Realm and Lorien held fast. Ring-bearers puttered along slowly, but didn't need em!

wrapped up a great weekend with friends on our fall trip, this year back on Pelican Lake. great conditions, no rain, good meals, lots of laughs, and we caught em consistently. plus some bonus walleye and crappies—fish fry later this week.

went fishing on the Namekagon in Wisconsin yesterday and it was one of the legendary fall days you dream about. love catching river smallies, best day on the water I’ve ever had without a doubt. not the size you can get on Mille Lacs, but I’m sure I caught at least 50 fish.

First try at homemade chicken tikka masala this weekend. It went great! MVPs: immersion blender, adding cashews (didn’t do this when I made butter chicken), kasoori methi, cheat code of getting giant jar of ginger garlic paste at the Indian grocery. 1 long green chili wasn’t enough, I’d do more heat
