first tragedy of El Niño 2026

A large kale plant, approximately 7.5 feet tall, is held up by a man in a blue raincoat. He also holds an umbrella. They are in a garden. It is raining. His boots are dirty and his pants are wet at the ankles.

and I don't mean my fashion sense.

Reporting in from the edge of the Pacific: this morning's wind and rain conspired to topple my beloved top-heavy Kale tree and so I headed out in the gale to chop it before it molested the chard and spinach. I am just under 6 feet tall for scale. At this point (it is/was maybe two years old) we weren't even eating the upper leaves, letting the birds have at those, and just snacking on the mid-stalk "baby kale" greens. I made filling for many rounds of my famous knishes from this plant.
