Recently made some jam. Was really impressed by how low tech the process was. Just cook some fruits, separate the roughage and branches and seeds, etc. Add sugar and cook it again. I believe you also have to add pectin if the fruit youβre turning into jam doesnβt have a lot of it.
Then bottle the stuff and enjoy it with bread for a long long time!
I like to get all up in my snuggie. Get a little weird.
I'm a huge coffee drinker. Used to have a machine. It broke. Bend using an aeropress and French press for awhile and find that I really don't miss the machine.

I have a crowbar that I named Art. I like to compare my crowbar to a piece of art, it's a masterpiece of engineering. So many uses for the humble crowbar, such a simple and powerful piece of equipment. I love the way it feels in my hand, I love the way I can stash it anywhere easily and keep it handy and secret. The Crowbar is Art, and I study the Art of the Crowbar.
