The Forms of Decluttering

... over the past month have been Baking and Beading.

Weekly bread has been a solution to clearing out the last of the Mysterious Unlabeled Cabinet Flour (it appears to be spelt) and various dried fruits, roots, and nuts that were lingering in their last dregs.

This week's bread contains the last of the spelt flour, crystallized ginger, and toasted almond slivers, as well as part of a container of dried currants.

Beading projects currently involve using up the last small bags of loose beads in the beading box. It's working reasonably well.

Well done! I, too, have been baking to use up old flour, but have not yet finished.

Irish soda bread has become to the go-to recipe over here. It's easy, flexible, and it turns out you can substitute kefir reasonably well for buttermilk (if you happen to live in a place where kefir is more accessible).

I'll admit though, this is what looks like the final stretch of a year-long project to get all the experimental flours out of there.

Yay to being able to use up all the stockpiled flour AND feeding yourselves. A big win.

And soon, there will be room for locally-milled flour. SOON!
