I don't know where it came from, but several years ago this idea popped into my head unbidden, and for some reason it tickles me. I don't know if it's funny, but I like it and I made it into a zine, I hope you enjoy it.

It lays out really nicely as 3-up spreads on A4 paper, so you can print, staple and fold it, then cut it into 3 zines. It made it really easy to print up 20 of them to trade at this art social thing I went to

Favourite way to prepare leeks? Shana Tova!

Thank you for asking! Yahni de Prasa (A Sephardi Greek leek stew) 3-4 large leeks 2 large onions thinly sliced 2 tbsp + 1/2 cup olive oil 2 large tomatoes peeled, seeded, chopped 2 tbsp fresh dill 1/2 cup vegetable stock salt + pepper Cut leeks into fairly large pieces, wash well. Saute leeks and onions in 2 tbsp olive oil until golden. Add tomatoes, 1/2 cup of olive oil, salt and pepper. Stir well periodically until it's simmered for 5 minutes. Add dill and 1/2 cup vegetable stock. Simmer tightly covered over low heat until most of the stock is absorbed. Serves 4. It's meant to be eaten with bread, I usually will make pita or bazlama to accompany it or make a stuffed pita with it.

I tried to make an unlegendary ho-oh but this is actually very strong and intimidating.

Last time I drove through the Rockies in November we had a wind warning in Wyoming of about 50 mph wind gusts, so lightweight, high-profile vehicles had to stay off the highway. I was chugging along on the last leg of my drive before I stopped for the night when I started getting battered to hell by gusts just after dark and I was like these are NOT 50 mph anymore. I knew I needed to pull off but the last gas station was like 40 miles behind me with no way to turn back whatsoever so I kept going, looking for any pulloff. An interstate sign said gusts were 90 mph now and the highway was closed. I finally found an exit to a dirt road onto some ranch. Definitely not ideal or safe to be on someone's random ranch, but I assumed they'd had it happen before. I parked my car in a ditch and the wind rocked my shit all night but honestly it was super cozy like a cradle!! I always have food & water & good camping gear so I just snoozed til sunlight & when I woke up, a bunch of other people were parked around me. I got out and saw this storm on the horizon

I said nah, I'm headed back the way I came for the night. I started moving and everyone else got up and followed me and I ended up the unofficial leader of a caravan on dirt & mud roads for nearly two hours. I saw a several herds of pronghorn, which was super cool. Finally made it to a tiny town just as it started to snow, with a single motel and I got a room and as the lady handed me the key she very sternly said, "NO cleaning fish allowed in the rooms. the scales do NOT come out." Which was a very Wyoming rule to have to set verbally to guests.
