    Investigations into Livestock Animals

    Hello, my fine readers! How are you today? Have you been doing any fun projects lately? What about God’s mission? Is He leading you on any interesting paths? Well, the Mad Scientist and I have been sort of pulled into a strange mission by our ears. It would seem that God in all of His…

    Of mushrooms

    Growing up in semi-rural Canterbury, one of my joys was the occasional opportunity to collect wild mushrooms. These were typically the field mushroom, which I’m told is Agaricus campestris, though some of the larger specimens may in fact have been the horse mushroom (A. arvensis).

    Two steps forward, one step back

    Dear friends and readers, Please accept our apologies for this long break. While we have been doing our best to keep this blog updated, the complexities of life have threatened to overwhelm us. We’re surfacing for long enough to give this update. We’ve posted before about a few days of illness. What we didn’t say…

  • A “Grace-full” evening

    The title of this post reflects when Starfish was known as Grace on this blog. My birthday fell this year on a Monday.  Birthdays are the few days a year that we go out for dinner, so we decided to go a night early.  This year I wanted to try a small Japanese Restaurant in…
