Okay maybe I am a little too silly

I am thinking about picking lingonberries this year. Partly because I have a receipt on Lingonberry ketchup. The same book has a recipe for Chipotle mustard that I already has made*. It should be pretentious and snobbish to say: “Sure I eat hot dogs, I have homemade mustard and homemade lingonberry ketchup on it”. Then to take the DIY philosophy serious you have to make the hot dog yourself. Preferably from an elk you have killed by digging holes with spikes in them in the ground and waited for the elk to fall down in it. That's how they hunted elks until the 20-century and everything else i cheating.

No to be serious the last years I have been picking berries in the forrest. So I will likely do that this year too.

* It’s a simple recipe: take two tablespoons each of mustard powder, dark syrup, chipotle paste and water and mix.

If you do that, you have to take photos of the fancy hot dog and post it for us.

I will.

Pretty sure that ketchup on a hot dog - no matter if it is made from tomatoes, lingonberries, or bananas - is never considered pretentious :)

Mind if I crosspost to metaquotes?

I wasn’t sure what word I should have used. Still you know how I mean, it’s a different between homemade food and mass produced food.

Sure you can crosspost.
