There have been no postings here for the last week or so because I was off to a family reunion (where we had a wonderful time). We were just outside of Zion National Park in southern Utah, a place of stark and majestic grandeur. At night the sky was so full of stars you could …

Hot Providence
Below is a small piece I wrote for a Christ Church cookbook which, Lord wiling, will be out in the near future. Maybe by Trinity Fest.
