I bought used some manzoni hardneck garlic from my local farm shop in my risotto & I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to go back to the generic nonsense the average grocery store sells. #cooking

My least favorite thing about baking recipe books is that they like to use terminology like “scant cupfuls”, “seal and flute”, & “shape properly with spatula” that a beginner would be unfamiliar with.

Bookworm Problems:
I had a dream about a book and now I want to reread it.
The problem is, I’m in the middle of another perfectly good book I want to finish first.
Dream book is tempting me that it would be a quick itch to scratch like it’s not the first in a series.

I pulled a paperback off my shelf to reread that I haven’t touched in over 20 years and the font is so tiny. I’m talking like 6pt serif font.
I’m so glad I read most books on screens now that allow me to adjust the font for readability.

My son (11) had a grand mal seizure yesterday.
Luckily, we were already familiar with basic seizure first aid since he’s been diagnosed as epileptic since Age 2, but since many people aren’t, I’m posting this simplified guide on my social media feeds today:

Can I assume the latter since knives are not much use against the non-corporeal?
