As a food blogger, I'm always trying to give things a new and unique twist, much to the chagrin of my husband, who would much rather just have something basic. "Honey dearest, what kind of jam should I make with all these peaches/strawberries?" "Just plain peach/strawberry. Don't do anything weird." "Please, you know I'm not going to make you plain ass jam." "Grumble grumble grumble." Pardon my language, but I swear, all he ever wants is plain ass this and plain ass that (at least when it comes to jam and cake, which he argues don't need any weird flavor additions/combinations.) If I always listened to his ideas (or lack thereof) I wouldn't have very many exciting things to post, that's for sure. But... I finally gave in this year, making a single batch of plain strawberry and plain peach to appease his requests. HOWEVER. Not being one to give in entirely, I designed some labels for his plain ass jam. Tongue-and-cheek, if you will, my "take that" to him for his boring requests.
