We had Thanksgiving dinner at church on Sunday, and I made cranberry orange relish and whole wheat bread from scratch (my first yeast bread!). Tomorrow I think I will bring more bread to the place where I'm having dinner and cranberry bliss bars to dessert.
I thought I replied to this days ago, but it looks like LJ ate my comment. Anyway, congratulations on the bread! And those cranberry bars sound yummy--I'll have to try that recipe.
I'm hoping the next innovation after 3D printing is going to be the ability to fax/attach food at people... *crosses fingers* *g*
I've been watching this program where two archaeologists and a historian recreate various eras of British farming, and it's made me really want to do the sort of nose to tail eating, making ones own stock etc that I'm a million miles away from having the skill or capacity to do. But I'm glad someone is doing Proper Cooking out there. *g*
I feel like I'm very far away from being a Proper Cook (I don't make my own pasta! Or my own ice cream!) but I do like the feeling of being frugal and using basic things to make something nice. Stock is especially good for that because you're using things that otherwise you'd just throw away, like chicken bones and shiitake mushroom stems.
If I ever have sufficient freezer space, and sufficient money to pay out all at once. I'd love to buy, say, half of a cow from a farmer and use everything.
