Ginguy Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 It doesn't really matter what it is, I'm just making it from scratch these days. I made my own pasta tonight, it was really pretty easy. It took some work, but that isn't a bad thing. I'm thinking about getting a garage freezer and just buying an animal and having it broken down for me instead of having to go to the market and paying for a bunch of sodium-solution added meat. Even if it is broken down into primal cuts, I can spend an afternoon and acquire some zip top bags and plenty of plastic wrap, even half a pig would last me quite some time. I think I'm going to make my own pizza tomorrow. I'll stop by the market and get some spinach, and make a classic Chicago deep dish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professah Tex Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 I really want to get the rap music I make to that point. The time it takes to make a track that just myself might enjoy though makes me think that would take soo much time.. so much dedication and planning.. or maybe I'm just being a bitch i dunno.

Ginguy Posted November 4, 2017 Author Share Posted November 4, 2017 I don't know anything about music. I just know that I feel better having cut out a lot of the chemicals they put in food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mthor Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 I don't know anything about music. I just know that I feel better having cut out a lot of the chemicals they put in food. I find that it tends to be cheaper, too. Maybe not at the check out, but when you figure the cost per serving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'm going to make my own pizza tomorrow. I'll stop by the market and get some spinach, and make a classic Chicago deep dish. i grew up on a farm, raising dairy and beef cows. we always had fresh milk and a big chest freezer full of beef. plus a 1+ acre garden where we grew a lot of veggies, then canned them for winter months. really took it for granted too. after going off to college (and after that, moving even farther away from home and leaving behind the farm life entirely) it's taken me several years to get back to fresh and natural. now my wife and her family buy a cow or hog every year and have it butchered locally. my brother-in-law keeps about 40 chickens for fresh eggs. and we've recently started canning fresh foods again. it's gonna take a little while to get to where we want to be, but over the last year, we've gone from take-out and dining out probably half a dozen times a week, down to maybe once a week. and we use fresh produce in every meal instead of canned / frozen stuff. it's a bit more work, but i'd rather put effort into that over trudging around wal-mart twice a month.
