Rolling Through History: The Comfort and Culture of Dumplings
SUMMARY: Dumplings are a comforting, versatile food with many variations worldwide. A classic Southern recipe uses simple flour and water dumplings simmered in chicken stock made from roasted chicken bones and sautéed mirepoix. Alternatives include using biscuit or Bisquick mixes for quick dumplings. Frozen dumplings are convenient but often less favored. Dumplings can be stuffed, such as Chinese potstickers or Eastern European pierogi, with fillings like pork, beef, vegetables, and cheese. Southerners also enjoy deep-fried dumplings. Originating in China during the Eastern Han dynasty, dumplings spread globally via trade routes. They are best enjoyed with flavorful dipping sauces of soy, garlic, vinegar, and chili oil.

Screech Owls – Small but Cute
SUMMARY: The Eastern Screech Owl, the cutest owl in the eastern U.S., comes in gray and red phases and thrives even in urban woodlands. Smaller than Barred and Great Horned Owls, they prey on songbirds, insects, and reptiles. Finding them involves listening and mimicking their distinctive gargled trill at night, a technique taught by bird expert Charlie Brenke. During the day, alarm calls from birds like Bluejays can reveal their location. Nesting boxes help attract pairs, but avoid playback calls during breeding season to prevent disturbing nesting birds. These owls are a fascinating part of local wildlife worth seeking out.
