In which I win none of the things (Okay, one)

By Ada Soto | March 3, 2016 | Category cooking

The A&P show has come and gone. I have not had the most productive or focused 2016 to date as a result I only entered a fraction of what I did last year and I think the judges could tell I was sort of half-assing it. I only got one first on show day and […]

The Manic End of Manic Depressive or Why I Have a House Full of Jam

By Ada Soto | January 20, 2016 | Category cooking, Mental Health

Manic is the brain refusing to shut down, rest, or relax no matter what the underlying emotion is. Manic might be happy but it isn’t a […]

By Ada Soto | March 2, 2015 | Category cooking

Show Day. First off I forgot the plum jam at drop-off time. There was only a two hour window and the show was 40 minutes away. This is depressing because the plum was the best thing I made all year. Of course this year was really about feeling out the judges and competition. The big […]

In Which I Will Attempt to Win All the Things

By Ada Soto | February 19, 2015 | Category cooking

I am taking February off from writing. Instead I will be spending this month preparing for the local A&P (Agricultural and Pastoral ) show where I will attempt to win everything. Okay, that’s an exaggeration. Next year will be domination. For those wondering A&P shows are a bit like county fairs. There are random things […]
