Another good reason to stay on Bluesky. "Last quarter alone, [Meta] earned $46.5 billion from advertising revenue, up more than 21% from the same period in the prior year." #meta #socialmedia

🥩 Hearty, slow-simmered, and timeless, classic stews layer tender meat, rich broth, and garden vegetables into pure comfort. A dish that warms the table, the soul, and the memory of simpler, shared meals. #TheOutpost #Cooking #Cooksky #Foodsky #Recipe #Dinner Click here for recipe 🍽️🍜👨‍🍳🐝🦋

Thinking of September & gentle change – spring & autumn. "Nature’s first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf’s a flower; But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf. So Eden sank to grief, So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay." -Robert Frost "Nothing Gold Can Stay"

Still my most popular Substack post ever…. all about the real French onion soup and the authentic recipe the french really do at home. Really. jamieschler.substack.com/p/authentic-...

Sustainable use of used cooking oil Reminds me of the Simpson's plot when Bart and Homer steal the school's used cooking oil. Willie catches them: "That's my retirement grease!" www.washingtonpost.com/climate-solu...

Intl Day of Awareness on #Food Loss & Waste Reduction 29 Sept www.un.org/en/observanc... "Much household food waste is the result of bad meal planning." "Too many of us have become used to abundance" "How come Denmark reduced its food waste by 25% in just five years?" I know I could be more aware🍜

Want. On a regular basis. Thank you for your attention to this matter. #food #foodsky #cooksky #noodles 🍜

Been driving me nuts for weeks but figured out that tune the bird outside my window is singing is from the Radetzky March. Just the fragment from 0:06-0:08 seconds, and the bird sings it slowly. www.youtube.com/watch?v=XY7Q... #nature #birds #natureisamazing #birdwatching

Bit overwhelming. What I read: -scrap plasticware when damaged -avoid plastic chopping board -rinse food b4 cooking -avoid ultra-processed food -[filter] tap water over bottled -re-evaluate non-stick cookware -don't heat or cool food in #plastic -dump kitchen sponge #food 🤔 Bring back simpler times

Whether it's Saturday or Sunday where you live, here's a riddle for you ... #poem #poetry #food #art (The note at the bottom of the post before the reference holds the clue)

Sounds "simple" but nutritious & achievable. Lot of fruit 🍐🍐 & veg. Also: "Even mediocre home-made bread delights most families" #food #foodsky #menus #cooksky 🍜

Reading about last meals in "Menu". Rasputin ate hors d'oeuvres (unsure if caviar or simpler) & fish soup, then went to his eventual executioner's house for honey cake. LOTS of Madeira drunk. This detail: "he supposedly licked his fingers while eating & often had #food caught in his beard"🤮 #manners

Well well well. Thought I'd play with AI. At a quick first glance, can you tell which one is AI & which is my photo?? The description I gave AI is in alt-text. I used Canva. I cld easily have photoshopped further. How many food writers write WITHOUT THE FOOD, you think? #food #foodsky #cooksky 🍜

Apple pie, peach cobbler, fruitcake. #yourloyaltytest #food #foodsky #cooksky 🍜 (surely fruitcake is its own food group?)

I deliberately don't comment on politics, especially American politics, but, you guys, this past week has been an eye-popping, jaw-dropping, heart-stopping doozy.

#sunset #arizona Absolutely breathtaking shades of pink tonight and the camera just never seems to be able to pick them up enough. Let's hope tomorrow is as lovely as these sunsets.

You know what I like? I like that there's a great Greek bakery an easy drive away. #spanakopita #foodsky #cooksky #food

"So blow the breezes in a soft caress, Blowing my dreams upon a swallow's wing; O little merry buds in dappled dress, You fill my heart with very wantonness—" -Thomas S. Jones Jr, from "A Song in Spring" www.yourdailypoem.com/listpoem.jsp... #poem #flowers #nature How's your day?

Those who follow me know when not writing fiction, or blogging, I like to write #poetry. Right now enjoying the ekphrastic form, as I like the synergy (& challenge) of combining words & "food" art. Long winded way of saying I'm working on another poem today, inspired by Matisse🍎 #food #apples #poem

For those following along, we finally have one! 😁 With attitude 🌺 This pride may seem silly to ppl who grow their own everything but a) seeds a gift from daughter b) my mother grew everything from nothing, so when I delight in plants, I honour her #food PS haven't forgotten yr tips from last time🙏

Emboldened by the tale of the popularity of my European cookie post, he went shopping & brought home these Pfeffernüsse. So now we have dozens of European biscuits & also Christmas in September... 🎄🎄 #food #foodsky 🍜 Post soundtrack: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gs06... www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXQV...

Lunch with French friends, entrée c/o MmeFF. Salad of tender green beans, feta & homegrown peach in a honeyed dressing with a tiny touch of balsamic, topped with pine nuts & nigella seeds. Beautifully balanced flavours & textures. Was followed by her blue cheese & mushroom tart with a walnut crust😋

This excellent post is filled to the brim with cats, kindness, and cooking. #food #foodsky #cooksky #beestrot 🍜

Am a bit late to the party, but figured I could still do some "dancin' in September" #earthwindandfire #september

I never considered getting the #Lindt chili until this review! Also, the #Halloween TIP 👏👏😈😈 #food #foodsky #cooksky 🍜 #beestrot

Did anything make you #happy today? OK, I'll start. Today my daughter told me she'll be cooking a recipe from the website I began in order to hand down recipes to her. Not only that, it's her grandmother's recipe: now a three-generational casserole. Cool 😀🍜 #food (stewedpears.com/my-mother-in...)

These were always in the house while I was growing up, & they're in the house now! 😎 Hard-cake/soft biscuit texture. Flavoured with anise. Smell & taste brings back memories. Packet says "European-style", but does anyone know the traditional name? (tried google - useless) #food #cookies #biscuits
