<h3>About me</h3>
<p>When I am not working, I am helping my wife raise our children, volunteering at my church (the <a href="https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/?lang=eng">Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints</a>; see my <a href="https://tyleransom.github.io/personal/ChurchCV.pdf">Church CV</a> for a complete history of volunteer activities), cooking, reading books, listening to books and podcasts, tweeting, or writing on <a href="https://tyleransom.substack.com">Substack</a>. I am a LaTeX enthusiast and enjoy following sports and doing sports analytics for fun. My favorite teams are: BYU, OU, Chelsea FC, Duke, and the Utah Jazz.</p>
<hr />
<h3>Recent books I've read</h3>
<p>I try to read 3 or 4 books each month. Starting in 2023, I posted a year-end reading list with brief reviews on my Substack. You can find the <a href="https://tyleransom.substack.com/p/the-35-books-i-read-in-2023">2023</a> and <a href="https://tyleransom.substack.com/p/the-50-books-i-read-in-2024">2024</a> vintages there.</p>

<h3>What I like to cook</h3>
<p>These days, I mainly cook limited-ingredient foods that contain as little processed ingredients and as little omega-6 polyunsaturated fat as possible. Examples include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Grilled beef (steak, burgers)</li>
<li>Vegetables roasted in beef tallow (baby potatoes, sweet potatoes, broccoli, carrots, zucchini, asparagus, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower)</li>
<li>Sourdough bread with as few ingredients as possible</li>
<li>Simple stir-fries with fresh vegetables and ground beef</li>
<li>Meatballs</li>
<li>Homemade tortilla chips (corn tortillas fried in beef tallow)</li>
</ul>
