Issue 7 of The Farmer General is out and the theme is “All Tongs Considered” — an ode to beloved kitchen tools. You can read the whole issue at http://farmergeneral.com/issues/issue-7-all-tongs-considered/.

The Lower Crust 
Very nice. And I agree that bartenders (and moonshiners) will get a pass in the post-apocalypse.
Thanks! Hey, TFG could definitely use some junk food; you should submit something! You’ve got to email them to get each issue’s secret theme: http://farmergeneral.com/writers/submission-guidelines/
Excited to return to blogging and read your stuff. So hey, thanks for the Degrassi post. It’s my guilty pleasure.
New blog (FYI): http://smashedgaslight.wordpress.com/
Nice. Glad I’m not the only adult who loves Degrassi (I’ve been watching it for 10 years — holy crap!). Nice to meet and looking forward to reading your blog.
