Okay, it's time to fork over some things I owe the internet, namely, the recipes I was talking about in my last post on... meep, Monday. Despite my posting silence, it hasn't been an unproductive week, although there are many ways in which it could, nevertheless, have been more productive.

I've been enormously lazy ever since I got back to Boston (starting with sleeping for almost fourteen hours the night after I got back), hence the lack of posting. There's nothing very exciting to report! I've been gradually tidying things up in the house in preparation for roommate J's return from Switzerland, and gradually acquiring foodstuffs ( Read more... )

So, while my bread of socialist, and to a lesser degree feminist (rant later, maybe) rage spends its final twenty minutes baking in the oven, an update! I'm baking bread this afternoon, obviously, according to my late great-grandmother's bread recipe. Here it is in its entirety:

Well, the last batch isn't even out of the oven yet (13 more minutes), and I'm here to tell you about my long afternoon's adventures in cooking.
