Scratch English muffin. Scratch strawberry and blackberry jam including scratch made pectin from backyard apples. Scratch made elderberry mead from backyard elder plants. 6 years old

Not scratch: the peanut butter.

I’d like to thank prednisone, ibuprofen and amoxicillin and past me for making this possible. Past me for making the mead, preserves and, from a few days ago, the dough.

The very first scratch meal I made was a PB&J sandwich. I paired it with a homemade porter.
