I don't think @kaleidotrope.bsky.social published this Oppenheimer poem by @writerjencrow.bsky.social just for me...but they might as well have: kaleidotrope.net/autumn-2025/...

I have no idea how one becomes involved with one--my role is just as a customer--but I'd look for "farmer's markets [your region here]" as there are sometimes comprehensive lists. Example: bringmethenews.com/minnesota-li...

I loved every word of this sweet story, and I wish I could have had such elder women in my life. Do yourself a favor and read it.

Back from my family trip to tell you that I have a new story in @kaleidotrope.bsky.social ! "What a Big Heart You Have" is my tender tribute to Grandma and Aunt Ellen, though the characters aren't literally them. kaleidotrope.net/autumn-2025/...

All the cauliflower is now seared with cumin and coriander and turmeric.

Last farmer's market haul of the season: strawberries, raspberries, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, poblano, Thai eggplants, cauliflower x2, broccoli, tomatillos x bushel, blackberry barbecue sauce, flash-frozen sockeye fillets and wee salmon belly bits.

OK, I already boosted @marissalingen.bsky.social's own post about her new story, but I just have to add, now that I've read it - oh, this is LOVELY: kaleidotrope.net/autumn-2025/...

Such a funny, sweet gift of a story about grandmothers and granddaughters. I loved it and will definitely re-read!
