this really does work, too. i tried it with my bookmark for german chocolate cake (given it crashed like 15 times when i was making it for my mom) and it did just that!

seriously, there’s a post floating around on here that’s all like “i love how recipe websites meander with stories” or something like that and i want to smack the shit out of op, because goddamn it, recipe sites are completely and totally useless at this point, all because authors like to yak about bullshit, their personal lives and what have you. plus you have a complete smorgasbord of photographs and videos and ads and sign-ins to google (?). it gets on your nerves really quick, to the point you’re just like “i just want to make this thing.” it’s hard on your device, too, like i can tell my ipad struggles to keep it on cook mode after a time.

apparently cooked.wiki makes you make an account now (and we all know how much we love that)

tonight’s dinner: detroit-style pizza done à la alton brown (cold-proofed in the fridge overnight and then brought to room temperature over the course of the day) and numero uno (bit of oil drizzled on the crust); the result is a crust that tastes fermented in the best way possible and feels both fluffy and crispy, just like the kind you would find at a pizzeria.

followed by the return of the bee sting cake! it was good to make crème pat and smell those caramelized almonds again 🎂🥳

i crossed a threshold with this.

i made gumbo! albeit with celery (i don’t care for okra)

tonight’s dinner: slow-cooked brisket with potatoes, carrots, and cabbage, paired with irish soda bread embedded with pepper jack
