Last Saturday we took a behind the scenes tour of the Theater of Electricity, the wing of the museum that contains the giant Van de Graaf generator, pictured above. This [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8216;m off to Readercon 21. I wrote about the conference last year, but the big difference for me is that I am this year&#8217;s Program Chair, which means I&#8217;m in charge of the content creation and scheduling processes. It&#8217;s a job that has consumed every available moment of my life since May, which explains why [...]]]></description>

Still, I couldn&#8217;t pass up the first yellow beans, fava beans,  and red onions of the season, as well as some flowers for She Who Must Be Obeyed and a triple berry pie  for our [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;m using a different approach to my shopping this season, buying only what I&#8217;m absolutely sure I plan to cook within a week, rather than picking something because it looks god and i might be [...]]]></description>

This months share included pork spare ribs, a pork hock, ground beef, a whole chicken, two lamb leg steaks, and lamb chops. I added a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Another month, another meat score. The people at Stillman&#8217;s have spoiled me for any other chickens. Now, when I &#8220;settle&#8221; for a Bell &#038; Evans bird, it still tastes bland compared to the free-range version. The rest of the delivery was hot Italian sausage, a pork loin roast, and pork cutlets. I supplemented those with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The cooking buzzword last year was umami, the &#8220;fifth taste&#8221; responsible for our sensing &#8220;meatiness.&#8221; Before that taste had a name, however, cooks in the know had a pantry full of components they could add to boost a dish&#8217;s savory notes. A quick look through the Belm Research Kitchen turned up these (not including the [...]]]></description>

Last week, while making my weekly subscription pickup visit, I noticed that the original artwork was available for sale. I immediately snatched up my favorite panel, one of a series of pages that [...]]]></description>
