The Shirley Sherrod Affair is a huge disappointment. I have long been a passionate supported of President Obama, but has become so incredibly cautious as to be completely ineffective. Everyone knows that Breitbart, the right-wing blogger who first published the edited speech is a liar. Everyone knows that Fox News is a shill for the right wing tea baggers. But for the Administration to fire Sherrod because they are afraid that it will be an issue on Glen Beck’s show? How embarrassingly tragic to not stand up for what’s right. Recall their reaction to the Acorn fake pimp & prostitute incident? How many people recall that Acorn called the local police and the town in Mexico where the ersatz pimp was supposed to recruit his prostituted from (as investigated by Jerry Brown’s office in California.) Keith Olbermann had an excellent Special Comment on the incident yesterday. If the President loses Olbermann, game over.

We have an excellent fish market in town, Empire Fish. I don’t get there as often as I like but we want to go weekly. They have a great selection and the fish is fresh. They are one of the main suppliers to restaurants in the area. I was there last week. When I go I usually just check out what looks good and what’s on sale. I picked up a walleye fillet and a couple of soft-shell crabs for our supper. The previous week they had monk fish on sale. We love monk fish. But this week, they had monk fish livers! I had never heard of them before, let alone seen them. They look pretty much like what you’d imagine (and that’s sort of disgusting.) I asked the monger what you do with monk fish livers. He said he had no idea. Someone had ordered a couple of pounds of them and they just put the rest of what they received on sale.

Today starts our first delivery of the season of our farm (a CSa – community supported agriculture.) This first delivery will include:
This week's vegetables: lettuce, spinach, scallions, strawberries, zucchini, mushrooms, cilantro, garlic scapes, pea shoots, broccoli (half shares) The season always starts a little slow. We’re not getting the “greens” share this year. It was just two much for the two of us. But we are getting the eggs again. We also will be getting bread from Real Bread, an artisinal bakery in Fond du Lac. It has been a long time since our last delivery. We’re looking forward to starting up again. Eat Your view!
