It was just a matter of time that I found the time to start a blogg. I've actually tried this a couple fo times before. Somewhere in cyber space is my attempt to document the travails of rebuilding my house after catastrophic disaster. The house ended up taking way too much of my time so that never got off the ground. Thank Google for making it easy for me to keep up.

I guess I should explain what I want to do with this blogg. I want to share my evergrowing knowledge with the world. Stop laughing! I know a few things about a few things. Really. Like did you know that salt is more than just flavoring on your french fries? You can prepare food with it, for example brining a turkey before roasting. Salt can be a method of cooking like baking fish in a salt crust. Salt can be a preservative- salted cod or salting a hide before tanning to name a few. Salt can be used it to ionize the air with a salt lamp. There are many different types of salt. Rock salt, sea salt, flake salt, Sel de Fleur, Sel de gris, popcorn salt, kosher salt, and iodized salt. Salt is a many splendored thing.

So my goal is to post a new blogg page once a week. That doesn't seem like too much pressure. But we will see. All of this talk of salty treats has made me hungry. I think I'll go hunt down some dinner now. Until next time
