I knew before I even left Ohio that I would make a clam curry dish, remembering the delicious Thai red curry I had made this past spring. But I am an avid reader of food articles and blogs and came across a New York Times collection of curry recipes that I had to check out. Included was a recipe for a Ceylon Curry of Oysters. I had to try this (using clams of course) because I have been on a bit of an Indian food kick lately, and of the many NYT recipes I have made, I have yet to make a bad one. Continue reading

I have lost my person, my love, my soulmate, my center. I am going to be absent a while. Love you all. #parttimelocal #hiltonheadohio1 month ago#fridayfunfact Moss Animals or Bryozoans are most closely related to mollusks (!), but like the sponges and corals, are colonies of animals (zooids). Bryozoan colonies are found most commonly as growths or crusts on other objects. They cover seaweeds, form crusts on stones and shells, hang from boulders, or rise from the seabed, readily colonizing submerged surfaces. Bryozoans were originally classified as plants, and some such as the Common and Ambiguous Bryozoans can easily be mistaken for seaweed or algae, hence the name Moss Animal. The Rubbery Bryozoans form gray or brown rubbery, gelatinous colonies that encrust sessile (unmoving) objects, and form branching, shrubby masses. This bryozoan is very commonly found on Sea Whips and is considered a fouling organism. I find this bryozoan very frequently on Hilton Head Island. This was my first exposure to these creatures, and this remains one of my favorite photos. If you look closely at the tips you will also see the presence of Sea Whip Barnacles. #hiltonheadohio #parttimelocal2 months ago#sundayfunday You see a wind pruned tree on an eroded beach, I see a young ENT dashing happily into the surf. 😂 #hiltonheadohio #parttimelocal3 months agoSome of these animals are beloved and some, not so beloved. But here's the thing: No matter how charismatic they are (or aren't), every single one of these animals is crucial to the delicate balance of our planet's ecosystems, and really, our world as a whole. So, protect what you don't love, just as fiercely as you protect what you do love. Our world, and its wildlife, thank you. Happy #WorldWildlifeDay ❤️ #hiltonheadohio #parttimelocal3 months agoRepost from my other IG account @recreationsbyptl because of where I found the shells. Cockle Shell Pendant Necklace Beach meets boho style. A cockle shell "wing" smoothed and waxed to bring out the beautiful color is the centerpiece of this statement piece. Glass beads in in various shades of browns, creams, and golds were strung to create the 20" necklace with a lobster claw clasp. I found this beautiful shell fragment during a Hilton Head Island beach walk. #hiltonheadohio #parttimelocal3 months agoFriday Fun Fact starts with the question... Does an octopus have arms or tentacles? When it comes to the cephalopod community, these words tend to get thrown around and used interchangeably. Let us set the record straight here and now: Octopuses have 8 ARMS and ZERO tentacles. This is not the case for all cephalopods, but when you’re talking about an octopus specifically, the word tentacles should not be uttered on your lips. Octopuses have 8 arms, which have suckers along the entire appendage, with most species having two rows per arm. So what’s the difference? Octopus arms are thicker near the base, getting smaller and eventually tapering off at the ends. Arms differ from tentacles, which only have suckers at the end! #hiltonheadohio #parttimelocal3 months agoRe-Creations by Part-Time Local
