 Here’s my latest creation, Mike the Butcher: The Last of the Meat Cutters, a joint production with Claire St. John, hip writer for the Davis Enterprise. Yup, its a puny local newspaper that no one knows about BUT I’m still majorly proud of this project AND I’m more stoked about finding Mike the Butcher still practicing a bygone trade over at Corti Brothers Market in Sacramento. This guy was the coolest and getting a chance to see him break down a lamb from one big carcass to a giant spread of amazing cuts was a unique experience to say the least. For all you vegetarians and animal lovers out there, yeah this might be a little rough. BUT we all should know the reality about how the meat we eat ends up in the supermarkets. AND the grander irony here is that most likely this isn’t even how meat ends up at your supermarket anymore. Like Mike says, most meat is gas flushed and packed in those styrofoam trays right at the meat processing plant and honestly,  thats pretty goddamned scary. Old school butchering is a dying art and its sad to cheerful neighborhood butchers like MIke, with his crisp white jacket and smart shirt and tie, being the last of their kind. I say three cheers for Mike and his meat mastery. He is a true artist indeed. Go visit him at Corti Brothers in Sacramento. Support the little guy. After all, these are (or were..?) the people in our neighborhoods. Word.

LU: Mood Elevator

I’m pretty sure I saw Chitty Chitty Bang Bang in the sky as I drove to work on the Yolo Causeway a few days ago. It was one of the most delightfully bizarre sights I had ever seen. Ok, so maybe Dick Van Dyke circa 1968 wasn’t in the car, but it definitely put a smile on my face.
