I live in an apartment building. It’s not big and there’s not a ton of space outside, but there’s this little patch of grass that I’ve basically claimed as my own when it’s sunny and I go out and I sit and write. The people who live in the apartment above me, however, have not gotten this memo. They don’t think anyone is out here. Which is why they continue to throw their day-old baked goods out the window. Because, that’s apparently, something normal people do. Anyway, I just got hit in the head with bread while writing, so sometimes life just comes at you, I guess.

My own creation. Pistachio croissants! 🥐

Pistachio filling :

* 1 cup Almond Flour: the foundation of your frangipane.

* 1/4 cup Butter (or half a stick of butter)

* 1/4 cup Pistachio Cream: This is your primary flavoring. You can use this amount as a starting point and adjust it based on the richness and flavor you want.

* 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar

* 1 large Egg: Add the egg, but do so carefully. After combining all the other ingredients, mix in the egg until the filling reaches a thick, paste-like consistency. It's better to under-mix at first and add the egg in stages if needed.

* A Pinch of Salt: Add a generous pinch (about 1/4 teaspoon) of salt to balance the sweetness and enhance the nutty flavors.

How to Proceed:

* Cream Butter, Sugar, and Salt: In a bowl, cream the 1/4 cup softened butter with the 1/4 cup sugar and the pinch of salt until light and fluffy.

* Add Wet Ingredients: Mix in the 1 large egg and the 1/4 cup pistachio cream until well combined.

* Add Dry Ingredients: Gently fold in the 1 cup of almond flour until you have a smooth, thick paste.

* Check Consistency: The final mixture should be a spreadable consistency.

Breadcrumbs Made Easy

I don’t know about you but I use a LOT of breadcrumbs. They make great coatings for fried foods and add body to things like meatballs and meat loaf.

This recipe is sooo simple youll never buy breadcrumbs again!

First off.. save your day old, or unwanted bread pieces. My family doesn’t eat the heels for some reason, so I throw them in a ziplock in the freezer and when I have a full bag, I make my…

I LOVE.

To the most simple of complex phrases that noone, no matter how hard they try, can quite explain.

The recent snowfall has yet again forced me into a state of defense. I feel a strong desire to fight against the COLD, but despite my best efforts there is no FORCING nature to do anything. Though the snow was piled high yesterday afternoon, TUCK had not been walked since the day before last, i have been feeling a bit sick as of late, and shirked my duties as prince over the MTN (i am beginning to sound like a fantasy author). So i decided to take TUCK on a walk yesterday. We walked up and down all the local neighborhood roads, most of which we had walked down before. There was one street in particular that i am positive we had walked before, but with obvious oblivion in my head upon passing a certain square of concrete. As we were walking i was listening to the birds off on the west side of street singing their songs to whoever was within their sonic reach.

STOP!

What is this?

Carved into the cement on the sidewalk there was a simple phrase.

"I LOVE"

Now, i am sure that Bobby Finkerdorf wrote it in while the cement was drying much to the despair of his parents and the concrete guy who layed it. But the simplicity of the phrase, at that moment, made me STOP, made me THINK. I wish there were more simple things such as these in life to make me STOP/THINK. I think that my favorite part about it was that there was no subject, no girl or boy or thing that ended the simple phrase....just...."I LOVE". Nothing more. The thought of just "loving" without any particular plan is the most basic but difficult of concepts. LOVE. LOVE. LOVE.

We passed the phrase and off to the local bakery. I had recently visited a couple of bakeries to make an inquiry about their old bread. I had been reading this story about an urban farmer in NEW YORK, that fed her chickens solely on thrown out bread from her local bakery, thus cutting out the expensive chicken feed. SHE inspired me. And so began my quest for FREE old bread. I spoke with the owner of one of the local bakeries here, and we decided for a trade, i would bring her music, and she would give me bread. WONDERFUL! Trading is much better than buying. I give you what i can do, you give me what you can do, and it will all work out. The chickens are now dining on some day old bread.
