Yes! Came here to say this. I was so angry coming out of this film and loathed anyone who liked or defended it.

MonkeyMan85@monkeyman85.bsky.social · 2mo agoThis morning I was thrilled to find the first tomatoes to start ripening. Cherokee purples. Plus some other garden highlights. 🌱 #vegetablegardening
Harvested my first cucumber today. The teaspoon is for scale. 🌱 #gardening #vegetables #cucumbermadness
Lexi McCologist@leximccologist.bsky.social · 2mo agoFor the rose gardeners. Rose petal beads from The Art of Cooking with Roses by Jean Gordon. Noonday Press, 1968. The book has an array of recipes for teas, custards and puddings, jams, cakes, potpourri and cosmetics...and more. If folks are interested, I'll post the index. 🌱 #theoutpost

The store was out of the chili garlic sauce I've been buying. When I got home, this is what I found in the bottom of my bag. Evidently, the idea of going without sent me into a bit of an emotional tailspin. 🍜
I grew up eating bread from Brother Juniper's bakery. I remember being appalled as a teenager that it cost $1.79 per loaf. But Stuan Bread was absolutely the best, my favorite. I don't remember where I got this recipe (it was pre-Internet days) but it's from Peter Reinhart.

It's my birthday this Friday (17th) so I thought I'd have a little sale, just because :) From now up until midnight on Sunday (BST) there'll be 17% off all orders, no codes to add, it automatically applies at checkout 🥰 #watercolours #birdart 🪶
Now, I usually bring tomatoes (cut or whole, sometimes peeled sometimes not) to a boil, place them pint canning jars, and store them in the freezer for soups, stews, and salsa. Sometimes I make cooked salsa and freeze that in half pint jars. No need to can them in a water bath.
Lexi McCologist@leximccologist.bsky.social · 7mo agoI dried tomatoes and thought they were sufficiently crispy. You then condition them by placing in a jar so that moisture disperses evenly throughout all the fruit. A lot of the tomatoes got moldy very quickly. (This was never a problem with cherries, plums, peaches, or apples.)
I was going to say Fat, Salt, and Ketchup. Also Butter, Cream, and Salt and Pepper.
