Just found out that my name is on the "editorial masthead" of a journal (not a predatory one) that I am ...not on the editorial board of. I am even listed as a section editor, though I have no editorial responsibility at this journal. Interesting...

Dinner tonight: pizza beans with Kale. Used California Corona beans from Rancho Gordon club, which are giant white beans and perfect for this. Love burning the cheese topping a little to give it a little more texture and flavor.

Challah ready for shabbat. Shabbat shalom everyone.

Where you going? Barcelona. Oh... are you sure? (I look forward to the three people who will sing this with the right song in their head).

Sy has trouble reading cursive writing but also thinks it's called cursed writing. So today I asked him to read something and he yelled: I can't read that! It's cursed!

One of my favorite genres of emails I get in academica is "We are honored to provide you with the opportunity to do more work for no additional pay." Not just we are asking but I should feel honored by the ask...

My friend John had fresh pawpaws so he came over and we made pawpaw ice cream. It tasted like melon and banana.

There is a lot to say about the positives & negatives of pink capitalism but it is certainly an indicator.

Went to a friend's house for dinner so I whipped up a Basque cheesecake for dessert. Used the recipe from Bon Appetite and it was really yummy but always hard to judge when it is done.

Bolognese sauce done. I forgot to get a picture until everyone had their dinner of the pasta and the sauce together but it was yummy. The sauce cooked for five hours so it got nice and rich. Nothing like having the house smell like sauce all day.

Pasta made for dinner tonight. It's a little bit of a whole wheat pasta so about 1/3 whole wheat flour and 2/3 bread flour. It goes really nicely with the Bolognese sauce I am whipping up.

Two challahs for this week and next. Simple three strand challahs. Shabbat shalom everyone.

That's their complaint, yes. They have a problem with Mamdani working with the JCRC-NY and synagogues that they consider Zionist. The thing is, you can't establish a program for defending "Jews, but not the Zionist ones." There's no other way for him to have done this.

We had a banana going bad so we made banana chocolate chip cookies. My son helped mix and scoop the cookies. He also learned that you can use a cup or a cookie cutter to make the cookies a little more round and uniform.

Although it feels like I am shouting into the void about this sometimes, I want to share some further thoughts on the “Zionism is Racism” motion which the Green Party is due to debate in the next 16 hours. Just to address various points which I think people in general should know. A thread:

My 6yo: Dunkin Donuts is the best place ever. Oh goodness... I am raising a Mass resident!

I have a new stove which has a lock button for the stove and oven. I put it on lock and my 1.5yo figured out how to unlock within a minute. Things are going great this morning.

Qual researchers: What do you use for coding? I am looking for a program that I can just buy outright and not need a yearly subscription for. These yearly subscriptions are annoying AF.

My friends spent the weekend over so breakfast this morning was Shakshukah! Served over some challah toast. Great way to start a rainy sunday.

Lunch for today: Bean salad with sauteed herbs. Beans from our first order from the Rancho Gordo Bean Club!

Dinner for Shabbat/erev sukkot. Stuffed onions cooked in a broth. It was such a warm and delicious meal. I got the recipe from Falmer but here is a similar recipe. I used more spices & silan instead of pomegranate molasses but it was delicious. www.jewishfoodsociety.org/recipes/onio...

6-strand challah for an indoor shabbat/erev sukkot. Can't eat outside tonight and we weren't able to get our sukkah up but have a nice dinner planned!

My spread from this years' break fast. Fun fact: I made my own hummus and used the water from boiling chickpeas to braise my greens yesterday! I hope you all had a safe fast.

Challah for the shabbat before Yom Kippur. Shabbat shalom everyone

This is a fantastic thread

So long story short, Nate & I needed new pots and pans. We had ours since my first apartment senior year of college so... It was time. And our are from MadeIn. Look at how pretty they are!!! Just in time for a few major meals.

Shanah tova. May we all have a sweet, healthy, and happy new year.

Used Michael Twitty's book on The American South to make red beans and some red rice. The rice came out a little mushy (I can never get rice exact for some reason) but still both were delicious.

My friend's birthday was today so I made a cake! I even invited him to join me in eating the cake. A chocolate cake (3 layers) with a Swiss Meringue Buttercream. My son informed me he likes the blue but not the white... Even though they were the same.

Challah done for shabbat (and a rosh hashanah challah in the freezer). Shabbat shalom everyone!

Same.

First day of classes in the books (Research Methods) and I have already found a way to add discussions of brownies into class discussions! Now students are asking me for recipes and may ask @rnavarre.bsky.social if I actually bake! So successful class.
