Happy Birthday, Blog!  I launched Four Pounds Flour four years ago–and it’s changed my life dramatically.  Through this blog I found a career, and a niche, that I never knew existed.  I’m so happy to be allowed to do this work, and I’m so grateful for all the people I have met through writing this blog.

If you’ve ever considered writing a blog, DO IT.  You’ve got nothing to lose and everything to gain.

To celebrate, I’m going to be writing a post every day in January.  I’ll live life as a 19th century servant, a Grahamite, and a English bum.  I’ll cook up 1850s sourdough, apple cider dumplings, and photographer’s cheesecake.  And who knows what else.  Whatever takes my fancy, because that’s the beauty of having a blog: I’ll do what I want.
