Janson and Jandos


[via text]
me: This book is set in Janson (send mms of book)
Russian Rachel: Good type IDing!! I like the cover.
me: I cheated, I checked the back. I like old book typefaces.
Russian Rachel: hahahahahah JANDOS WOULD FROWN
me: He should be happy that I cared enough to check.

Side note, this was an amazing book. So informative. I learned the origins of the term "scalloped" (as in potatoes), when they first made chowder in America, and how to make my own buttermilk, butter, ghee, Russian cream, and other various delights. Must. Purchase. Also, must find a place in Northern Virginia that sells unhomogenized milk. 

I had to stop reading it and walk to Starbucks for a latte. It was that good.
