was laid waste by the camp fire proclaimed as a national wildfire disaster the largest and most destructive in ca history it was a news story for most folks in butte county it was a nightmare unfolding the evacuation line was 50 yds from my driveway we were a mere wind change from the same devastation 40 000 people are said to have escaped and evacuated not sure if that s only paradise magalia or it that includes the concow yankee hill jarbo gap communities or berry creek or the cherokee road area on the east side of table mountain 85 are known to be lost amazingly in spite of their quite literally death defying feats of heroism we lost no first responders in the burn zone there are no fewer than 40 thousand stories of the camp fire you didn t have to be in it to be affected by the fire either ptsd affects many survivors and helpers those who have pitched in to help regardless of how small an effort there are still pets being found by the tireless rescuers and trappers who specialize in small animal rescue following disasters that s after major concerted efforts by hundreds of volunteers sending food and water into the burn zone and evacuating livestock and pets even before the fire was contained hundreds of pets and livestock were transferred to medical facilities well outside our area for burn treatments the uc medical system got a whole lot of mileage out of learning about burn injuries the camp fire came only a matter of weeks behind the carr fire in the redding area that s two large fires with a lot of animals in short order what they ve done with these poor injured creatures is nothing short of miraculous we discovered that exotic birds and animals were somewhat popular in the camp fire zone admittedly the camp fire ate a huge hunk of real estate but it was also quite spread out the lake level was very low and when it s that low it s easier for the fire to jump across the canyons the several communities affected each had some kind of ranch sanctuary or aviary and most of those folks needed supply runs because they didn t dare leave their properties due to evacuation orders those are the rules you can stay if you can stay water gas feed volunteers became life line angels for some very unique pets that wouldn t fit in just anywhere life in our little part of the world has changed in a big way 40 000 people had to go somewhere else overnight a housing shortage was affecting the two towns closest to the burn zone be damned the folks displaced by the fires had no where to return to in the early days following the fires we were hearing that insurance companies were putting folks into the closest available hotel in sacramento 75 miles away initially literally hundreds of households doubled up in the aftermath too much shock too little real knowledge too many decisions too few places for information and help to restore most folks believed they d be home in a few hours to a couple days they never thought their lives were literally going up in smoke one of my friends says her home vaporized things you would expect to find nothing remained except some bone china and heavy metals yes life has changed in our little part of the world and the world hasn t kept up with that change mostly the immediate nearby communities are bigger by several hundred to a few thousand people those numbers must surely be fluid as housing shuffles and shifts and fema units arrive and are populated schools are out now for the summer this is an ideal time for families to make bigger moves especially if they re leaving the state we all experience more delays longer lines and traffic changes along with everything else hopefully we can find a stasis that can be addressed and managed to help folks recover instead of making it worse for them comments leave a comment categories uncategorized iso fabulous peanut sauce 5 11 2018 i love thai foodie she has a recipe for peanut sauce legit no less that makes a much larger quantity than i was prepared for 3 4 cup natural creamy peanut butter our notation be careful get the real natural not the natural one with added sugar thanks jif not 2 tbsp thai red curry paste a tablespoon or so less if you don t want it as spicy a tablespoon or so more if you want it spicier 13 5 oz can coconut milk 1 2 cup brown sugar or 3 4 cup grated palm sugar 2 tbsp white vinegar or 2 tbsp tamarind paste concentrate 1 2 cup water salt to taste since i bought jif natural and didn t check for added sugar until after i tasted the sauce and realized it was way too sweet i ended up adding an extra 2 3 tablespoons tamarind and a couple tablespoons of fish sauce as well as using the full 2 tablespoons of red curry paste to offset the too sweet aspect success i have about 2 tablespoons of the acf peanut sauce left in the fridge and i ve got close to a quart of fresh peanut sauce they taste slightly different the acf sauce uses lime juice for the sour component and thai foodie uses tamarind both are in keeping with thai cuisine so both are authentic one thing i m sure of at this point is i need to find a few things peanut sauce works with so we can enjoy our labors another peanut sauce i got a copy of the original thai cookbook by jennifer brennan for christmas i m starting to wonder what region of thailand the recipes come from the peanut sauce is ok just not what we think of when we think of thai peanut sauce it s super thick spreadable thick and lacks a sour quality the ingredients are red curry paste coconut milk peanut butter palm sugar and fish sauce like i said really thick i ended up adding palm sugar even though the peanut butter had sugar in it same peanut butter as i used above some soy more fish sauce the juice of half a lime and 1 2 cup of water it was still thick and neither of us like it as much as either of the previous sauces we tried and so on to the next comments leave a comment categories thai uncategorized previous entries august 2026 s m t w t f s 1 2
