This is my first story for The Daily Yonder! Be sure to listen for the full effect: dailyyonder.com/homemade-eas...

A woman decorated chocolate eggs with small sugar flowers.

When Pastor John Langenstein found out he’d been assigned North View UMC, everyone he talked to had the same response:

Everybody acted like climate change was a big joke — and now we have tornadoes in West Virginia.

The slavery section of the National Museum of African-American History and Culture was one of the most heart-rending things I've seen in my life. I remain shaken by it. And I am immensely grateful for that experience.

And they’re going to lose again.

A plate of food (rice, chutney, curry, cream) being offered at a small Hare Krishna altar.

There are three kitchens. One for the on-site restaurant. One for the devotees. And one where only the most pious believers can work, preparing food for God himself.

Looking through a doorway at a gravel walkway, with a red wall on one side and a red fence on the other. At the end stands the Palace of Gold with multiple gilded roofs.

My latest radio story takes us to New Vrindaban, West Virginia.

It’s a Hare Krishna community in the state’s northern panhandle, best know for its opulent Palace of Gold.

But this story ain’t about that.

I went to see the kitchens of New Vrindaban.
