Tying Cauliflower

For a common vegetable, the cauliflower is high maintenance. It asks a lot — first, a long growing season that resists direct seeding, so it must be transplanted.

When I was in the throes of perimenopause, I couldn’t eat hot soup. Any soup, no matter how delicious, precipitated a hot flash. Sweaty heat would radiate from my neck to my scalp and then head south. It was a sad time for me. One of my favorite food groups is soup. I wrote an essay about those hot flashes back then; lucky for you, it didn’t appear in these pages. I didn’t have this gig yet, so you were spared from reading what happened in and to my body while I was in the throes of perimenopause. I did ... by Tracy Grathwohl
