I went grocery shopping today in preparation for the Thanksgiving Celebrations this weekend. I can spend more time than I should at farmers markets or grocery stores, getting lost in all the options, reading labels, reading sources (and planning what I’m going to do with everything!)

Sometimes I make complete disasters in the kitchen. I’ll admit it. I inherited my father’s tendency to throw anything interesting together in a pot and hope for the best. This has served me well.

I haven’t been having a great time with gluten free baking. And after various trial and error situations with recipes all over the place, I’m finding myself avoiding the whole process because it’s so inconvenient. Or it just seems inconvenient because the end result is never really like the baked products I’m used...
