Color! and a bit of news

Autumn: the moment your dinner plate can be as colorful as all outdoors.
I roasted and mashed the squash, braised the cabbage with raisins and caraway, sauteed the shisito peppers, and put those Hakurei turnips and pomegranate seeds in a green salad--all served with splashy yellow polenta egg pancakes with roasted red pepper.  The baby sweet potato will get daubed with soy and olive oil and roasted later.

And now the news:
Niman Ranch, the meat purveyors of supposedly pasture raised organic pork and lamb, has been sold to Perdue, you know who. The touch guy who made all those tender industrial chickens. Get your meat from your local farmer. It may cost more but that can help you to eat less. Reports say 10 million--10 million less animals died last year because we are eating less meat.  Let's keep on keeping on.
