Ok, maybe perfect is too strong of a word, but a job that I think I would like and be really good at would be a recipe tester, especially if it was gluten-free baking recipes. Is there such a thing? Does it pay? Say, for example, you were writing a cookbook and wanted to test [...]
Yesterday LM and I made lasagna–homemade noodles and all. The plan was to save half of it for a freezer meal, but it is almost already gone. So much for that.
