I’m giving the opening keynote at the Maine Grain Alliance’s 2025 Kneading Conference, which culimiantes in the Maine Artisan Bread Fair on July 26. My talk is at 8:30 a.m. at the Strand Cinema in Skowhegan, Maine. I’m really looking forward to this one.

To start the work week: “Caffeinated”
Murray Carpenter. Caffeinated: How Our Daily Habit Helps, Hurts, and Hooks Us. Hudson Street Press, 2014.
