"A man accustomed to American food and American domestic cookery would not starve to death suddenly in Europe, but I think he would gradually waste away, and eventually die." |

We think fast food is equivalent to pornography, nutritionally speaking. |

“This root [the potato], no matter how much you prepare it, is tasteless and floury. It cannot pass for an agreeable food, but it supplies a food sufficiently abundant and sufficiently healthy for men who ask only to sustain themselves. The potato is criticised with reason for being windy, but what matters windiness for the vigorous organisims of peasants and labourers?” |
| Denis Diderot (1713-1784) L'Encyclopedie (1751-1772) |
You don't sew with a fork, so I see no reason to eat with knitting needles. |

Prepare jars, lids and boiling water bath.
Wash and dry the apricots, then prick each one several times. Combine
the water, anisette and sugar in a pan and cook over a med-high heat,
stirring frequently, until the mixture boils and the sugar is
dissolved. Add the apricots and simmer for 3 mins.
Fill each hot dry jar with the fruit and two fennel springs, leaving
1/2 inch headspace. Pour hot liquid over the fruit until just
covered. Wipe the rims with a clean towel and attach the lids
securely.
Place the jars in boiling water bath, and when the water returns to
boil, process for 25 mins.
