Some of what I do in this blog is about leaving notes to myself, because I want to remember a recipe or an idea or an event.
Don’t have a blog? Continually misplace your diary? Wish Post-It notes were harder to lose?

You’re in luck.

Is this time travel? No, but it’s the closest thing we have at the moment so I’m making the most of it!
