A lens on the sacred and the daily

There are no unsacred places;

There are only sacred places

And desecrated places.
— Wendell Berry

There's a meme on Facebook these days, a challenge to post one black and white photograph a day for a week, a glimpse of your day.  I've been enjoying seeing the world through the eyes of various friends. The incredible photo of a bumblebee on a sunflower, one petal folded over like a sunshade.  A sky that looked like rippled silk. Mugs holding hands.

These are apples in the sous vide, seen from above, with a bit of spice and brown sugar.  Simmer at 70^oC for a couple of hours, then chill. 

I spent a good chunk of Saturday cooking ahead for the week (and the month), along with organizing the results of the monthly major shop.
