Retrospective

We started with the best intentions. And it was fun! It really was! But documenting everything was taking too much time and effort. It's the lament of many parents, I'm guessing. Therapies, social groups, workshops, IEP meetings, and eventually pre-school ate up our energy.

The good news is that we're still cooking! We're not doing the alphabet schtick, mind you, but we continue to make really good home-cooked meals. And be we, I mean Mary. We joined a CSA, so a lot of meals are planned around whatever we're getting for the week from local NC farmers. Mary got a rice cooker for Christmas two years ago, and Quinoa has been putting in a favorable showing recently, alongside a lot of other rice dishes.

We also restored her great aunt Johnny's iron skillet and have been cooking with it a fair amount recently. We looked up the stamp on the bottom, and found that the company that made it went out of business in the 1920's!

I'm sorry we abandoned our blogging, but thank you (Patricia especially) for your interest! Maybe we'll do something like this again in the future, when we're not so plowed under. Keep cooking!
