One of my fall recipes is lentil soup with carrot, onion, celery and garlic. I think the same would work well here. Any other suggestions?

There is (was?) a pizza parlor in Santa Clara county CA that named all the tables for famous (or infamous) people. Of course they had a John Wilkes booth.

What makes prepared beans a salad or not? Beans are a starch, but were not included in the cube rule for foods. Is there a soup, stew, or salad rule for beans? I've subscribed to Deconceptualist's Bean Facts in tho hopes of learning such things. With study perhaps someday I can reach beanlightenment.

People who were raised omnivorous but became vegan later in life, what are some alternatives you wish you discovered before you ever even went vegan?

Yes. You could also just add ground flax to foods when preparing.

I lived in the Silicon Valley in the 1990's. Prior to being developed, Sunnyvale was dominated by fruit orchards. In the late 1880's, a scandanavian farmhand named John was in love with the farmers daughter but the love was not reciprocated. Farmhand found dead in the orchard, bled to death from an axe wound. Some say accident, others said suicide or murder.
Toys r' Us was built in the old orchard. Unexplained events told to me included books falling from shelves, stuffed animals stacked in aisles, baby swings suddenly start swinging on their own, smell of blossoms in the playdo aisle, sound of running horses by the Breyer horses. No apparition but when alone employees sometimes heard a voice with a scandanavian accent in the stock room. Random breezes and cold spots in store. Benign poltergeist stuff like ripples on still water when no pebble tossed.
I shopped at that Toys r' Us and never experienced any paranormal activity. But... In the late 90's I was shopping for Breyer horses for my daughter, mixed in with the horses were a couple Starting Lineup sports figures. The player was MLB pitcher Donnie Moore. The figurine was released in 1988. In the 1988 playoffs the California Angels were one pitch away from the World Series when Donnie Moore gave up a home run and the Angels ended up being eliminated from the playoffs. In 1989 Donnie Moore murdered his wife and then committed suicide. I thought it odd that they had ten year old stock. The coincidence of 1880's/1980's, death by misadventure and strangeness of misplaced inventory was too good to be true so of course I bought the figures, still have in a box in the attic. No paranormal activity to report in my attic.
Edit: in, for clarity

Anyone remember the haunted Toys R Us in Sunnyvale CA?
Such a scenic commute, hopefully things align to allow biking more often.
In breeding plumage, love the tassels.

Although this came to light in the past, it was again reveled during Trump's election interference trial. In a quid pro quo arrangement, Arnold agreed to remain editor of Muscle & Fitness and Flex magazines, if the National Enquirer would kill stories that could damage Arnold's carefully crafted image.
Newport Bay Conservancy volunteers returning from the last king tide cleanup of the season.  
Lighting, background and subject matter came together on this one, I was just there to record.
Took advantage of todays 6.8 high tide giving access to clean otherwise inaccessible areas of the UNBR marsh. Sit on tops do have areas where they excel.

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/10458716 > Flowers are “giving up on” pollinators and evolving to be less attractive to them as insect numbers decline, researchers have said. > > A study has found the flowers of field pansies growing near Paris are 10% smaller and produce 20% less nectar than flowers growing in the same fields 20 to 30 years ago. They are also less frequently visited by insects. > > “Our study shows that pansies are evolving to give up on their pollinators,” said Pierre-Olivier Cheptou, one of the study’s authors and a researcher at the French National Centre for Scientific Research. “They are evolving towards self-pollination, where each plant reproduces with itself, which works in the short term but may well limit their capacity to adapt to future environmental changes.” > > Plants produce nectar for insects, and in return insects transport pollen between plants. This mutually beneficial relationship has formed over millions of years of coevolution. But pansies and pollinators may now be stuck in a vicious cycle: plants are producing less nectar and this means there will be less food available to insects, which will in turn accelerate declines.
Caught this juvenile stalking its prey on the mud flat in the salt marsh.

A Red-shouldered hawk perched on a Sycamore branch. One talon on the branch, the other talon tightly clutching its prey.
Red crown and throat of Anna's Hummingbird, Rufous colored sides. Taking a break from sipping Bird of Paradise nectar, crown and throat coloration was obvious while feeding.
Flock of Ibis' on a sandbar preening and drying in the mid-day sun. Light was right to capture a little of their iridescence.
Would be right to use the names that Indigenous peoples had been using for millennia. Traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) should be respected as equal to western scientific knowledge. If a species was already known to Indigenous people, it was not discovered by western scientists. Addendum for clarity. Initiative is to change common names of birds that were named after people. AOS creating a panel to draft new names based off birds features. I think using pre-existing Indigenous names for birds should be considered.
Many mornings this individual can be found been hunting on the rocks by the Jamboree bridge where the San Diego Creek enters the bay. Its nest site was on the other end of the bay near the Newport Dunes.
Scouting for endangered plants gave access to the closed section of the nature reserve. Light rain and cloud cover made for a pleasant work day. Sit on tops worked well getting on and off islands in the marsh. If only every commute was like this.
