2023 embraced avant-garde spirits & the trend persists as we approach the new year. Cheers to @jdflicker's latest @foodandwine piece on "Why the Future Bar Cart Will Feature Crab Whiskey and Trout Brandy."

These videos in my green crab-oyster experiment bags show some cool interactions between those two species but also other fun marine life! Juvenile fish may find oyster farms and their gear as a habitat similar to natural reefs for protection and food. @UNHMarine @B3EcoGenetics

.@samlansky has such a wondrous way with words, and I’ve loved reading his pieces for over a decade. If you’ve ever been around him, you know he’s just the best type of person: Curious. Interested. Hilarious. Intriguing and intrigued. I have tRuSt iSSueS when it comes to interviews but I couldn’t be happier that I did this one with him. I was blown away to see quotes from people I adore and admire like Stevie Nicks, Greta Gerwig, Shonda Rhimes, Phoebe Bridgers, Natalie Maines, Kenny Chesney, and Lucian Grainge. I was so happy he spoke to fans Madison and McCall who were so eloquent, loyal, and kind. I’m really reflecting on this year, and all the years that led up to it. Can’t say thank you enough times. 🥲
