a map of indiana

from the year he was born

{click on it to enlarge}

can you find goshen?

that's where he's from.

find ELKHART county 

at the north of the state.

interesting fact: 

most RVs you see on the road were

manufactured in elkhart county, indiana.

looking for a map of somewhere special?

i found this one here.

pickles

lacto-fermented or salt-water pickles.

i had never heard of them

until amanda from our csa

made some a couple weeks ago.

i understand that this is the old-fashioned way.

let me know if you've tried this because

i am almost certain i'm doing it wrong.

read more here and here.
