It is Carl Sagan Day today.

I had a chance to meet him, at the Hutch when he was getting cancer treatment; what a great man.

His memory compelled me to finally get my supermoon picture off my phone to share.

Up early; going through some of my Kauai pics. I love this one. This little one was very small (note the size of the sand grains). I spotted him quite by accident and was lucky to have the camera out with the 300mm lens (only way I could have captures this from a distance without scaring him away).

48 hours after the bake, the rye speaks in hints of Kommissbrot:
caramel on the crown, honey on the sides;
caraway ghosts rise through malt and molasses;
spice opens the door, rye walks in, malt lingers to say goodbye;
dense, elastic, alive —
I would have made a good baker’s guild member. 😉

I was _supposed_ to do a sourdough bake off with my four cultures; instead, I took a tumble off the bus (thanks to my satchel shoulder strap catching an armrest whilst departing)...all is good except bruised my hand enough that I can't knead dough, much less times four. Instead, you get some pics.
