I bought a chiming clock at an "antique" store this weekend. Turns out it's a "chiming" clock, which is to say it does not chime at all. I miss hearing chimes! The search continues

This is too good not to share, so here is the alt-text. If you've given up on Moby Dick, you might want to give it another go after you read @calebcrain.bsky.social's essay

Years ago someone pointed out bands in the sky like this and explained what they are. That was a long time ago and I've forgotten the explanation, but here they are again! (This is facing northwest, early in the morning, so they are not sunbeams.) Can someone tell me again what's the dealio here?

This one from my kids' Gold Medal Flour cookbook was a family favorite. The dill pickles and pickle juice truly make the pie! I'd use cheddar cheese because cheddar and dill and beef together are somehow greater than the sum of their parts

An I-Dont-Want-To-Cook meal that turned out pretty good even tho or maybe because it required more cooking than I'd intended to invest:
Rotisserie chicken shreds
Pre-made roasted root veggies
Instant mashed potatoes
Improvised cornstarch gravy
I shoulda thrown in some frozen greens too

Our little town had a great turnout, 700 people! That's basically the whole town. We posted up on Hwy 101 waving at drivers and had 90% positive response from cars passing by. It was a great event. (If you zoom in you can see how far down 101 goes)
