the problem with writing the fic about Jane’s recipe blog is that I desperately want to include my real favorite recipes in it!! Which would be so fun, because I genuinely enjoy baking and cook for myself almost every night, so I have a bunch of good recipes that could work for the fic.

Unfortunately, I forget sometimes (because I only cook for two people) that my cooking is….unsettlingly allergy friendly. Yes, it’s all gluten free. Sure, every single thing can be subbed out for non-dairy alternatives, and we often make them that way! Eggs are a little bit harder, but a ton of my baking recipes can use banana or applesauce with a little baking powder as a substitute for the moisture and leavening of a genuine egg.

Just…..I forget that not everyone is dealing with 3-5 food allergies at all times when baking for themselves and their friends.

#I’m still having fun with this concept #but I’m realizing that the structure I was considering may not actually work #because I was truly going to theme this around Actual Real Recipes that Jane Is Writing About #possibly one for each month of the year #sort of a seasonal thing #with a little vignette from the polycule before each fake recipe post where she recaps the drama and then shares the actual recipe #and then maybe some of her more entertaining comments on the recipe post #like it’s still funny if there aren’t real recipes #but it’s so much funnier to me if they’re all genuinely my favorite seasonal baked goods #only all of my personal favorite recipes are actually gluten free and mostly dairy free so I can’t actually be annoying about modifications #because They Work #sugar and spikes au
