"We do, as it turns out, contain multitudes." Brilliant, Kimberly, and I love the interview. So many incredible parallels here between fermentation and human life and recovery. I will be looking deeper into Dark Mountain and particularly into Dark Kitchen. I have experienced the healing alchemy of my kitchen. It is my sanctuary in a sense -- the place I go to worship the temple I call body. Thank you for these wonderful insights. I look forward to reading the larger essay as well.
Thanks so much, James. I def. think you'd dig Dark Kitchen. And amen for the sanctuary of the kitchen and nourishing the bodytemple. I can't wait to nourish mine with some okra this summer - the cravings have begun.
I’m going to invite you down to Jasper County this summer for some okra picking and maybe some river fun and maybe a visit to Love is Love Farm. Maybe some okra cooking too.
Making our own Sauerkraut was one of my great finds during quarantine. Unfortunately the pandemic also made my wife a germaphobe...so she stopped the practice. Maybe I can start it up in a few years after getting some more distance from that time.
Completely understandable, given how distant fermentation has grown from most of our kitchens, but also a great place to explore our complex relationship with microbes. Hope it finds its way back to you when the time is right!

Heck yes. I've been meaning to check out the new Love is Love spot!
Right around the corner from my abode!
