I would love to have a cookbook with one of your micro-stories for every recipe. I loves this so much!

Gorgeous, Amie, and so beautifully timed! I love the scent of pickling - your post has taken me right back to pickling season when I was a child. I don't make traditional pickle because I don't get on with sugar - but early this week I threw four thickly-sliced homegrown cucumbers into the liquor left over once I'd strained my latest batch of sauerkraut, and the crunchy, ferment-rich and tangy results are absolutely stunning!

I need to stop raiding that jar every time I walk past, because manners.... 😉

I’m on round two of Yolanda’s hermits! They are the best!

If only I knew who Yolanda is/was...a secret that my mom carried to the grave

One of the women who is in the Hendricks little dippers, is named Yolanda the next time I see her I’m going to ask if she is THE Yolanda!
