Hey.
So, as I have discussed it with some of you here, our almonds have been activated, but even weaponised autism bodies need the fuel.
All jokes aside, inflation is crazy everywhere. Just ordering some stuff was viable some time ago, but it's getting less so. Plus, tasty food is good for your general well-being and making it so is not only a skill all adults should have in my opinion (you are strong, independent adults, learn life skills that make you depend less on everyone else), but it can also be fun.
As much as I would love to feed you all, that's obviously impossible. The next best thing is, I curate a little collection of recipes and break it down so you can make it with relatively simple ingredients that don't depend on specific brands and using from scratch stuff as much as it is viable. Making your own pasta and churning your own butter would be fun, but I work a full time jerb that's not ASMR whisper cooking on Tiktok in a peasant dress.
It's going to be a combination of food from all different kinds. Some Hungarian (none of the war crimes Americans call goulasch), some Asian, some inauthentic shit that will get you cancelled, some mains, pasta, soups, desserts.
So gather around, my friends and eat like kings.

One suggestion for bacon, my wife's personal trick. Oven cooked in a cookie sheet with parchment paper underneath the bacon. Crispy, evenly cooked bacon and the paper ends up taking off a lot of the grease ahead of time for you, cleanup is easy.
I have never since cooked bacon in a pot or skillet after that. The consistency and quality is that good.
In this specific one I would still go with the pot because you do the entire rest of the thing with the rendered fat.
Oh yeah certainly, I just saw the word bacon and made the connection. It's definitely something to try if you get the chance.
