i’m a farmshare participant living in brooklyn, cooking from scratch as much as i can and helping others do the same. i enjoy writing about food and cooking, cataloging recipes, and generally just encouraging people to eat well. many of the recipes and experiments on this site are vegetarian, because i live with a strict vegetarian, and they can easily be adapted for vegans.
from nyt magazine: “[Henry] Balzer himself made it clear that he recognizes all that the decline of everyday cooking has cost us. So I asked him how, in an ideal world, Americans might begin to undo the damage that the modern diet of industrially prepared food has done to our health. [He said,] “Easy. You want Americans to eat less? I have the diet for you. It’s short, and it’s simple. Here’s my diet plan: Cook it yourself. That’s it. Eat anything you want — just as long as you’re willing to cook it yourself.”
