I've been reviving one or two recipes from black forest days recently with mixed but interesting results. In my 30s I became oddly obsessed with tracking down and baking recipes for apple cakes (as well as having far too much of a good time, of course). Since I retired I probably bake a lot less because I have less time of my own. Oh well, c'est la guerre.

For all of my 20s and 30s I sewed -- art textiles, costume, my own clothes. I haven't touched a sewing machine for 20 years and on one level I miss it. I'm always startled when people I've met in that last 20 years have no idea I had another life. Curiously, sewing replaced insects. I've always cooked throughout my life, and the insects are back. Interesting. There doesn't seem to be any special trigger, one just finds it happening.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06472449597146519943noreply@blogger.com
