#TBT French Onion Soup

“This is every cook’s opinion –
no savory dish without an onion,
but lest your kissing should be spoiled your onions must be fully boiled.”
-Jonathan Swift

Everyone has different experiences that make them realize they’re officially old… For some it’s getting married, or having a baby, or getting into a graduate program (which I also just did *toot toot* <– my horn); for me, it was when I started having to Google the abbreviations that everyone was using on social media.

For those of you who, like me, aren’t hip to Twitter (#butilikehardtoreadhashtags), #tbt means Throw Back Thursday, so in an effort to imitate digital youth, and update some of the horrid old photos that exist on this blog, I’m instituting my own version of TBT… But if I don’t post something every Thursday, blame it on my non-digital senility. And laziness. I’m lazy.

Here’s the initial post and delicious recipe– I’ve left the original image at the bottom of the page for a “before and after.” I didn’t want to have any reminders of these embarrassing photos, but I realized that they’re the blog version of Jared holding up his giant fat-pants. Look how far I’ve come, people!
