A Blue Moon Is A Clean Person's Moon
The blue moon, which reached its apex at 6:43a EDT but will rise at 8:14p EDT, is an incredibly powerful moon; if you lean toward the spooky, as I do, you should be sure to harness some of its power.
Where My Baba Ganoush People At?
Back in January we created an incredibly stupid bracket to determine The Ultimate Super Bowl Dip. As incredibly stupid things are wont to be, it was also incredibly fun and incredibly hilarious and brought out the best and worst in just about everyone who participated.
Full Of Beans: A CSA Season Mess Of Greens & Beans
I abhor waste. That's the thing to know about how this recipe came to be.

I Can't Stop Staring At These Fancy Chicken Coops
This Cape Cod-inspired coop even has a name—Chez Poulet. I generally find named homes tacky, but it turns out that chicken coops are an exception to my rule. See how you learn something new about yourself every day?!

The CEO of Levi's Is An Entitled Idiot
A lot has been made this week of Levi Struass & Co.'s CEO Chip Bergh's admission that he doesn't wash his jeans.
