The Roundup

Corn chaff after the harvest

With the holiday baking season upon us it’s a good time to highlight Joy Of Baking, a comprehensive site that offers much more than recipies. The site founder states “to become a good baker all you need are good ingredients and some time and patience in the kitchen. Practice does eventually lead to excellence so I encourage you to start easy and as your confidence builds you will be amazed at what you can accomplish.”

Stephen Shore’s work “has been widely published and exhibited for the past forty-five years. He was the first living photographer to have a one-man show at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York since Alfred Stieglitz, forty years earlier. He has also had one-man shows at George Eastman House, Rochester; Kunsthalle, Dusseldorf; Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; Jeu de Paume, Paris; and Art Institute of Chicago. In 2017, the Museum of Modern Art opened a major retrospective spanning Stephen Shore’s entire career.”

The Museum of Hoaxes “was established in 1997. It explores deception, mischief, and misinformation throughout history, playing host to a variety of humbugs and hoodwinks — from ancient fakery all the way up to modern schemes, dupes, and dodges that circulate online.” Warning: this site is addictive!

With Black Friday right around the corner it’s a good time to visit The Black Friday.com.

Have a good weekend!
