Greetings to all those who may find themselves reading this post, and hopefully future posts on my newly established blog, Humus & Peat-a. Now, you may be saying to yourself, "Well that's a ridiculous name! He spelled hummus wrong and who is this Peat A. fellow?!" So, in an effort to clear up any misunderstandings about the title of my blog, it is the result of the long and arduous task of finding a clever name that reflects both my interests and my personality.
Let's break it down like this: I like food. I like all kinds of food and foods of various cultures. I especially like Middle Eastern food (hummus and pita included). I also am quite fond of humus (that lovely smelling earthy stuff you find on the ground) and bogs, for they contain sphagnum peat moss (the stuff that makes up the squishy ground upon which you walk in a bog). So I've established three important aspects about my blog's name. It represents my love of healthy, cultured food, my interests in the environment as a wetland restoration ecologist, and my enjoyment of ridiculously silly word play.
I must not fail to mention that these topics are not all you'll read about in this blog either. Topics I will most likely discuss include, but are not limited to: coffee, food, music, computers, technology and design, photography, stop motion videography, gardening, bicycling, camping, hiking, canoeing, kayaking, indigenous culture/land management, nature, household chemical alternatives, frugal living, DIY projects, science, politics, and my friends. So, I look forward to posting many more blog entries that you, the reader, may find somewhat interesting and maybe, at times, a little inspiring.
