MOLLY & ALICE
We like to be healthy and eat cleanly. We also like to do the opposite. We like to theorize food and invent complicated food philosophies. We like to cook. (We like to uncook.) We like to eat until we feel nauseous and then complain about it.
This blog is dedicated to the task of consolidating and documenting our miscellaneous food interests, affinities and curiosities. This is the stuff of our text messages and hastily-exchanged cell phone photos; we’re assembling it in blog form for the sake of both curiosity and posterity.
Experiment!
