I found two pie recipes with cornmeal in the filling while going through my cookbooks today: pineapple-coconut chess pie and chocolate-pecan chess pie.
Cornmeal isn't very common as an ingredient in pies; the two chess pie recipes are the first I've found so far. I'm looking forward to finding more!

Found a recipe that specifically calls for corn oil. Think this might be the first one that I've found in my books so far!
Typically the recipes call for vegetable oil

All currently finished recipe zines that I've made so far.
Each one has a full recipe inside

Out of the 8 apple varieties listed in this section only 3 are common in grocery stores today!
Golden delicious, McIntosh, and red delicious

Reading through Better Homes and Gardens Encyclopedia Volume 1 currently in search of interesting recipes.
It's amazing just how much thinga have changed food wise since 1973!
From the simplicity of recipes to the sheer variety of foods that just aren't around or common anymore.

Normalize just posting a recipe with no backstory at all.

I took far too many photos of this confiding Ruby-crowned Kinglet. But, given how uncooperative these birds typically are, when you've got a good one, you take a life's-worth of photos, 'cause it may never happen again!

New paper!
I am excited about it, since it has some very cool contributions on:
-Status of Invasive ectomycorrhizal fungi
-Definition of what is a invasive mycorhizal 🍄
-Cool picture of trees being brought from Europe in 1920!
