If you've been following a while, you've probably noticed that some of my posts lately have been empty. That's because blogging takes a lot more time than I have some days. With that said, I'm going to try to do an amended version of NaNoWriMo for the first time ever this year (that's National Novel Writing Month, for those of you unfamiliar). During the challenge, you try to write an entire novel in a month. Sooo, I will be extra busy, and am not planning on having any time to blog. I'm going to *try* to start back up in December, but you never know. At some point, though, I will be back with Fannie. So do not despair, I will still be trying out recipes and giving a verdict...but I'm not sure when.
For now, this has been a long and taxing process (the blogging, not the cooking), so I'm taking a little break to work on a shelved novel. I will still be cooking and hopefully keeping track so I can post about them sometime later.
Have a happy November and enjoy NaNo if you're participating!
Fannie Farmer's The Boston Cooking School Cookbook is THE classic American cookbook. It was always within reach in my mom's kitchen when I was growing up, its yellowed pages delicate and frayed from frequent use. If my mom said, "Go get Fannie Farmer," I knew exactly what she meant. So when I decided to do a cookbook challenge blog, cooking 365 recipes in a year, it was only natural that I looked to Fannie. Her many basic recipes make it a perfect fit for someone just learning to cook.
