I'm a foolish optimist and a hopeless daydreamer. I imagine a cozy little home with a porch, a tire swing, cherries, apples, apricots, plums, currants, berries, rhubarb, a veg patch, chickens, ducks, a cow, a goat, definitely a pet pig. This blog is about real food, which I enjoy making and growing. Sometimes I follow recipes, sometimes I use them as guidelines, and sometimes I like to read recipe books, because they're like collections of short stories, always with a happy ending. Enjoy!
