Just doing. Oh yeah, and some food.
I’m realizing more and more that I should probably fix to a schedule in my life. Helen and Scott Nearing had a very calculated way of doing things (I’m reading their book "The Good Life" right now.), and I can kind of see why these days. The took...
WFP: Homemade fizzy drinks!
So, you know how I brew kombucha and am a total convert? Well, my SCOBY (symbiotic colony of bacteria and yeasts) got mold twice in a row… I have no idea what happened! I was waiting for another culture from my friend and I caved and bought...
WFP: A great day for a picnic
Today was so nice out. Breezy, sunny, perfect. We decided to have a picnic.
WFP: Making up for missed food posts!
Tonight was one of those "What the heck do we eat?!" kind of nights. I looked in the fridge...
WFP: A regular update, but let’s face it- it’s mostly about food.
There’s so much to do these days! It has been so nice to walk slowly through my yard, with a bowl full of chicken slop, discovering all the little beauties that spring has to offer. I’m soaking up the green and all the blossoms and… this season is just...
WFP: Allergies
I remember those little innocent looking peas, rolling around on my plate. Oh, that horrible little pile of peas, just sitting there, taunting me. It felt like we had them every night, and I always whined about how much I hated them and that they "hurt". They first made...
WFP: Food for our food
In this culture, it is advantageous for big industrial food giants to do all that they can to remove us from the source of our food. It makes sense for them to do so. Just walking down the isles of an average supermarket, a large percentage of the "food"...
WFP: On a Wednesday! Hooray!
On Sunday for family dinner we had one of my all-time favorite foods. Oh my, this meal is so good. Everyone in my family, even the pickiest of members, loves this meal. Good, old fashioned, beef tongue with noodles. Yep, it’s downright delicious. This is one of those traditional...
Ah, I’ll just call it a “Thursday Food Post”…
Perhaps in order to successfully execute a "Wednesday Food Post" every week, I’ll just have to pretend that I’m supposed to post it by Tuesday… yes, that’ll work!
I was thinking about matters of taste. Let’s take little Max, for example…
I had just chopped an onion so strong that...
WFP: Sweet dreaming…
The garden. I’m ready. I’m so, so ready. I’d love to say that I’m one of those Michiganders who doesn’t sink into a hole at the end of February, but I can’t. I’m not as bad as some- I still push myself to get out into it, and I...
