Haven't seen as many roadside butterflies this year, nor their wayside cafes, milkweed as usual. This butterfly on milkweed was spotted along an Adair County byway. A welcome sight. - EW

Epicurean Kentuckian: Meal, eccentric pragmatic locavore style

2018-07-30 - Quaint peasant kitchen, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com
Actually, a breakfast for supper. The star the plate may be the obvious local farmers markets fresh tomatoes or slices of sweet-as-apples onion, or the back porch basil hand raised from plant from FM2, or the farm fresh eggs. But it's not doctrinaire local. Wasn't practical to get the sweet pickled ginger, mushrooms (though it ought to be), or the horse radish mayo, or frozen sweet peas and dry onion for the omelet, but it worked for a quick, very tasty meal, made in good conscience as a practicing, if not dogmatic locavore. Shouldn't get anyone shunned or churched. It was considered healthy, and we may be able to give a calorie reckoning, soon.- EW
