This is a great time to remind everyone that US farmers are a lot wealthier than we think they are.
Most *small family farmers* are millionaires. And no, it's not "just because they own land." Their income is much than average- yes, AFTER you take out farm debts and expenses.

Let me introduce you to Malfouf Mashi, stuffed cabbage leaves, Levantine style. Unbelievably delicious!

Malfouf Mahshi (Lebanese Stuffed Cabbage Rolls) by Zaatar and Zaytoun
Malfouf is much easier to prepare than stuffed grape leaves or zucchini (courgettes) as the leaves are larger and quicker to roll up.

There seems to be a belief that English muffins weren't invented in England: claiming that the Thomas' brand, founded in 1880 in Manhattan by a British baker, were the first.
This may be the oldest EXISTING brand, but there are recipes for 'English-style' muffins in English cookbooks from 1747.

The "Big Beautiful Bill" requires federal agencies to ramp up logging, "but it also includes a provision requiring 'all monies' from those new timber sales go into federal coffers. That could mean nothing from new logging contracts will be shared with the counties that house those forests."
