I've never been good about keeping journals, but maybe since cooking and history are two things I am exposed to every day, hopefully I'll have enough fodder to keep this blog running for at least a bit (or until I run out of steam/become more interested in something else). Anyway, the plan is to post interesting historical factoids I come across as well as recipes that may or may not pertain to whatever the topic is of the day.
Since I don't have much to write on at the moment, I'll leave you with this quote:
"'Because what's history?' he asked rhetorically when he was in his expansive dinnertime instructional mode. 'History is everything that happens everywhere. Even here in Newark. Even here on Summit Avenue. Even what happens in this house to an ordinary man -- that'll be history too someday.'" - Philip Roth, The Plot Against America
