It really was time to make some bread. Slow cold fermentation, high hydration and only four ingredients. #bread #baking #homebaked

Finally our sugar snap peas are starting to flower. Now if they're not eaten by snails, slugs, gnomes, rats or anything else we'll get a chance to have fresh produce. #vegetables #sugarsnappea #vegetableflowers #garden

Mother of thousands (Kalanchoe sp.) has interesting flowers. Too bad it's poisonous, but you can't have everything. Seems like everything is getting poisonous, just read the news!

It's Tuesday, time to use stuff up! Beans, avocados, the rest of the chicken, cilantro, cheeses, alioli. Kind of a nacho salad, maybe. Are organic tortilla chips over processed food? I'll say no, not so much. #nachos #wastenot #avocado #beans #totopos #homecooking

Wore this shirt to a party. Too bad dressing for the thing was more fun than the thing itself. The food was good. Some things are just like that. There was a game most of us did not understand, even though I somehow won? And too much intellectual snark is not good (sociology in this case).

Magret de canard à l’orange sanguin, avec lentilles. J’ignore pourquoi ils vendent le magret dans un emballage qui n’indique ni la quantité de morceaux ni leur tailles. Oui, tailles pluriel car il en avait deux petits et un moyen! #canard #magret #canardàlorange #duck #pato #anac #cuisinefrançaise

Just realized who our Fearless Leader reminds me of... a character in Bug Jack Barron by Norman Spinrad! [That's not a good thing, especially since that was not a good dystopia to live in!]

Sometimes it's better to go for a walk in the cold than disturb perfect bliss. Even if she is sleeping on your jacket! #cat #calicocat #snooze #happycat

Where the truffle went (mostly). Truffle everything! Yeah, the menu is in French because this is a fancy place! Except the word "dystopia" because it looks better in English. #truffle #pasta #fancyfood #madefromscratch #steak #pasta #truffe #napatrufflefestival #homecooking

White bean and squash soup with pepitas and pimentón. Not a huge fan of squash, but this is good. Adapted from el Comidista so guess it’s kind Spanish. #soup #squash #madefromscratch #beans #garlic #pepitas #pumpkinseeds #homecooking #orangefood

Our black jewel orchids are blooming. These are grown for their foliage, but the flowers are cool if you get close enough. #houseplant #horticulture

Truffles are art! Kinda performance art, since you have to eat them quickly: half life of 5 days from when they're dug up! (so much for snarky, insightful first post, but there's enough politics going around already!)
