Early summer squash, sliced thin and seared hot till the edges catch, finished with lemon and torn mint β€” the first squash of the year tastes like the season making a promise it means to keep. There is a quiet in a kitchen at dusk when you feed yourself on purpose, slowly, the way you'd feed someone you loved. No one in your house goes hungry because the week was hard. That is a resistance you can taste.

The sun dictates what we eat. 🌞

Summer: grilled salmon, fresh salads, outdoor feasts.
Winter: simmered squash, hearty stews, preserved meats.

Swedish Midsummer. Japanese Toji. Chinese Dongzhi.

Different cultures. Same solar rhythm.

#MapleSyrup boil complete for the year. Our trusty swamp red maples gave an impressive 48 to 1 ratio. Maybe it was all the snow?

A reminder for anyone else living in a temperate climate in the southern hemisphere, autumn is harvest season. When there's more fresh produce available, usually at cheaper prices, than at any other time of year.

Now is the time to eat as much fresh food as you possibly can, preparing your body to get through the winter to come. Without paying the out-of-season tax to each it in the same quantities in a few months time, when your body starts craving it.
