Mysterious Mushrooms. Yum!
Mysterious Mushrooms. Yum!
Have you seen or read some good documentaries/scientific articles on them? Do share.
(Note for Clarification:
These are store bought mushrooms, photographed for their unique growth, posted as a conversation starter. I am not referring to these specific mushrooms, but to all mushrooms with the adjectives: magnificent, mysterious….b/c of how they grow & live, their amazing capabilities & properties etc… We are still learning so much from them & about them. M. Pollan’s book about them is good, there is also a documentary on it- I am sure there are more & it’s a worthwhile conversation to have. )

Grateful for this article.
Porcelain Mug. Light Blue Iceberg Blue. Wheel thrown & wood fired. Stunning.
New, it’s from my ceramic art collection. It is made by an educated potter, or ceramic fine artist. It has what is called a ‘moon foot’ & other wabi-sabi qualities. It was hand held as it was dipped in glaze, and the finger marks are porcelain windows through the celedon glaze. Celedon is one of the first few glazes humans developed and has a wide array of colors, based on the glaze formulation & the firing process. This was fired in a high fire, wood fire, reduction kiln.
The ash from wood fell on part of it as it moved through the kiln, melding with the glaze. For laymen, on this piece, it looks similar to if pepper was shaken on it.
This lovely, perfect, functional piece can be put in the microwave & dishwasher but not in the oven. Do not thermal shock it. The glaze is satin, so not glossy & not matt , and very smooth.
It comes in a giftable box, or you can store it in it- whatever you like.
Height: 3.5 inches width widest diameter of cu part: 3.25 inches & width, including handle: about 4 inches.

Jeep XJ bumper bracket set. New. Made by Crown Automotive. Bought from Quadratec.
Oxford isn’t the oldest university, not by a long shot. India’s Nalanda University had already operated for hundreds of years and been burnt down by invaders before Oxford got its act together. But Oxford, as one of the oldest universities in continuous operation, doesn’t feel that old. It’s a product of our time. You can still enroll at Oxford. You can still go to Merton College.
The Aztec civilization of central Mexico, on the other hand, feels like ancient history. Archaeologists dig up Aztec ruins, museums put on Aztec exhibits. But the origination of the Aztec civilization, marked by the founding of the city of Tenochtitlán by the Mexica at Lake Texcoco, didn’t come until 1325. Tenochtitlán was captured by Spanish conquerors in 1521, just 196 years later. The White House has been standing longer than the Aztecs ruled Tenochtitlán.
None of this is intended to pit civilizations against each other. But it’s an interesting way to think about how skewed our understanding of history really is—we have these timelines in our heads that are distorted and compressed, and they don’t always agree with reality. To get a clearer picture of how the world really works, sometimes it helps to keep things in context.

A Poem:
Sight beyond blockades of place, time, space/
now asks how
beyond the bow of life & strife
& knife cuts/spreads & deheads
my bed of soft hugging, all encompassing,
depth of night vision.
