i want to fill my kitchen with basic ingredients, as untouched and unprocessed as possible. little lard cupcakes seem like a good place to start.

i can definitely see you trying to do this and resetting your kitchen on fire while making it smell horribly at the same time. you might want to space out these mishaps a little bit more during your first year of marriage.

it’s weird that the blog doesn’t have many comments. after looking at her pretzels, i recall that my homemade pretzels in england (because they don’t exist there) were far better than the stuff you get from the street vendors. maybe it’s time to make some more.

I totally agree with you. I aim to slowly but surely replace just about everything artificial with home made/home grown stuff. Or as much as humanly possible.
