Crab Angels and Horsie-headed fisherman: Corey Arnold’s Life on a Crab Boat Photos
Loving the Good.com article from last week about Corey Arnold’s new book, Fish-Work. Buy direct from Corey Arnold at his Fish-Workshop. It’s like your local fishmonger, but a lot less stinky and with pictures instead of um…real fish.

Heritage Foods USA: For that hard to source half lamb carcass
This morning the cherry blossom petals started falling off the tree in my courtyard. Powdery ducky colored pollen coats and re-coats and re-coats again every surface outside my home. CVS and Rite Aid shelves spill out cheap chocolate bunnies with freaky … Continue reading →
