The Life of Hurricane Sandy - From Space

Maybe I should have a new category on my site for "This is Fucking Crazy."  Here's Sandy's life over a one week period, from ravaging Cuba to climbing up the entire Eastern Seaboard.

Watching it from space gives a kind of antisceptic feel to the entire thing.  You know terrible destruction is been wreaked below.  Kinda reminds me of the view from a battlecruiser:

Star Trek Haiku

From the "I can't believe I never posted this" department.  I was digging through some old files and found this gem from law school.  Warning: These will get a little raunchy.  I blame law school.

Homemade Applesauce

I got this recipe from The Kosher Palette, but it's pretty much the same as every other homemade applesauce recipe out there.  Here's the gist:
Peel, core, and slice apples.  Cook 'em in a pot with a little water - just enough to keep 'em from burning.  When they're soft, mash 'em a little.  Eat.  Wonder at God's creation.

Potato Leek Soup

Soul food.  Not a desert island dish, but darn close.  Our local organic basket kept sending us potatoes and leeks, so I decided to go with a classic.  Glad I did.  This recipe is everything you want potato leek soup to be.

Cranberry Relish

Add this to the list of things that are better made by yourself, along with applesauce and peanut butter.  Our local organic box brought us a bag of fresh, ripe cranberries, oh-so-perfectly timed just before Thanksgiving.  And a week before that, a fresh pomegranate.  We'd already used half the pomegranate in fresh salads, but had just enough left for this recipe.
