Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Similarly, I bought a crockpot today. I have butternut squash soup simmering and am shopping for cookbooks.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Mandolines are the bomb! I should really use mine more.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Sigh. I made the best bread of my life today, and I will never make it again because it was one of those "Oh, CRAP I forgot I was almost out of bread flour: throw every grain I can find in until it adds up to 500g" creations.

Fucking hippie bread is going to turn me into fucking Proust.

I basically have used mine only for apple crisp and pickles, but it is worth it.

Punishingly Intricate

I made mushroom soup from the Ad Hoc at Home cookbook and it took a million hours but is very tasty. And there is a ton of it and an another ton of mushroom stock now in the freezer. I also made a delicious salad with roasted beets and got the vinaigrette recipe and crouton recipe from the Ad Hoc book. It's definitely for cooking on a day off.

You gonna out mushroom soup the mushroom people at the market? I always want to get stuff from them, but then, I don't really cook much.

It's been a long time since I've had theirs but I think this one was more complicated and hearty! I used some of their 'shrooms in it. Also some morels that we picked last May in Michigan.
