Today’s field trip was to La Farm Bakery on Glenwood Avenue in downtown Raleigh. We waddled out with bread, a sandwich, an enormous chocolate cookie, and some pizza dough to compare with Chef Tomasso’s for Friday Night Pizza. Yumsters! @lafarmbakery #bread #bakery #cookie #pizza #fieldtrip

From the Vault

“The morns are meeker than they were,
The nuts are getting brown;
The berry’s cheek is plumper,
The rose is out of town.

The maple wears a gayer scarf,
The field a scarlet gown.
Lest I should be old-fashioned,
I’ll put a trinket on.”
—Emily Dickinson

It actually doesn’t take much to be considered a difficult woman.
That’s why there are so many of us.”
― Dame Jane Goodall (1934-2025)

“The breezes taste
of apple peel.
The air is full
of smells to feel-
Ripe fruit, old footballs,
burning brush,
new books, erasers,
chalk, and such.”
