Good for you for making real food man...not alot of folks do canning anymore.
I have always believed that food you prepare yourself is just flat out better - and better for you - than anything else.

As a science/engineering nerd, baking (especially sourdough) is a natural attraction. That it produces a superior product in every sense of the word is a nice plus, too!

My mother is the one that helped me make the link between cooking and chemistry. Once established, it stuck. Something for which I will always be grateful.

As it happens, my broken down digestive system seems to be ok with the idea as well.

It's a shame that shitty fast food is actually now cheaper than making your own, healthy, food. The price follows the market, so that tells me the idea of feeding yourself proper is becoming a thing of the past.

Ahh, well. Whatever makes people happy, I guess.

When you grow your food naturally, feed your animals and gardens healthy, its even better. Its a shitload of work though!!

“Recognize that the very molecules that make up your body, the atoms that construct the molecules, are traceable to the crucibles that were once the centers of high mass stars that exploded their chemically rich guts into the galaxy, enriching pristine gas clouds with the chemistry of life. So that we are all connected to each other biologically, to the earth chemically and to the rest of the universe atomically. That’s kinda cool! That makes me smile and I actually feel quite large at the end of that. It’s not that we are better than the universe, we are part of the universe. We are in the universe and the universe is in us.”

Love the quote. But to me, Tyson put a more intimate spin on it.

Everything is connected. Us with each other, and everything else that exists as well. Rather profound, and true.
