Been meaning to publish this one for *months* and instead I just cooked it over and over again and ate it and didn't post cuz sometimes posting is hard. https://beantips.com/red-lentil-tomato-soup-with-pickle-brine-because-sometimes-going-to-the-store-is-hard/
Red lentil tomato soup with pickle brine (because sometimes going to the store is hard)

Today's soup was born on a very cold day a few weeks back, when I had to make due. It's damned tasty.

Dad’s pancakes, which are different from mom’s pancakes, but usually acceptable: https://smittenkitchen.com/2010/05/oatmeal-pancakes/
oatmeal pancakes

These have been my go-to weekend morning pancake for over a decade because they’re perfect — hearty and filling, just sweet enough, and they make amazing leftovers.

Sounds great, and more relevant than ever.
