You don't know me, I'm a silent lurker of your old Lipstick and Gelato blog. I enjoyed your sense of humor, excitement around food and life, and occasionally I even tried my hand at some of your recipes. Hallelujah, I had actually printed out your Brown Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookies, so I can still make those lovely beauties.
I was so sad when I couldn't access your blog or find your Instagram. 😭 What a happy stroke to find your substack! I was going to read a book this afternoon, but now I'm going to peruse this space instead!
All the best to you and yours! 🙌
Recently, I've discovered that I like kimchi and I have been dying to make kimchi fried rice. Unfortunately, I used the last of my too-small-grocery-store jar to make kimchi scrambled eggs, which were delicious! Sounds like I need to hunt up an international market with larger jars.
Goodness, I'm rambling on and on, but I just have to add, jars are so cool! So very useful for many things. I love water propagating houseplants, so I put many jars to use in that way. I love your idea of small jars for dressings and sauces!
Rachel, thank you so much for this comment! I didn’t meant to ghost the internet! Now I realize that between my marriage and name change, shutting down L&G and changing my usernames to my married name, I WOULD be hard to find. I’m so glad that you’ve reconnected, and thank you for your readership! Welcome to Substack, friend!
This is wonderful. I’m inspired. I too am a fellow jar lover and wish to expand my collection after reading this lovely piece and am delighted to have a recipe to use the amazing kimchi with as I Simple eat it plain. Thank you Rachel.
Hurray!!! I found you again.

It’s really just as wonderful plain, isn’t it? Haha. But yes, I do hope you enjoy the recipe, Elaine! 🫶🏼
