Piscataway Acres

People:

As I already mentioned, the emphasis here is not on my personal life or on people I know.  Instead, I am interested in people-related knowledge and activities, the things that fill up a person's life or, in the case of history, have filled up the lives of members of generations' past.  Stay here to learn about the history of the area, some nice locales, some good cuisine, and of course, my feeble attempts to cultivate my little plot of land.  As always, if you have something to share, please write!

One can be restless staying in one place all the time.  This documents places I have visited through the years, both local and distant.  Here you could find information on historical sites, cities, exotic places, and parks, all depending on where I get to go. 



Cooking

I am a self-described "foodie" and cooking is a creative outlet for me.  Let me put it this way: Any art I design ends up being eaten.  Along with information on recipes or just updates on my recent culinary accomplishments, you'll also find here information on my descent into dairy production, particularly cheese-making.



Farming

Although much of this category is covered in the section entitled "Plants," this page takes a more comprehensive view of what it means to farm.  For example, here you might find a documentation of the various projects I undertake here.  Or you might find essays and discussions on what approaches to running are most effective.  Or you might find---well, you get the point.  Anything relative to farming is fair game here.
