I fell of the wagon during the January challenge. I found it also a bit difficult to think of what I make from scratch which is most of our food. Even the granola I make are from whole oat berries which I flock.
I have been reading up with daisy’s Financial book and stockpile cafe (I’m taking the course building a better pantry). Also finished my eco veggie gardening course and started my another course (bee related). I made honey propolis cough syrup and propolis healing balm. I bought a bigger car (an oldie but good one) and now I can put the sweet dog in a bench so she is not bouncing around while driving. I bought a couple of books about propolis, beeswax candles, honey wine and beeswax in general.
This week and next week 2 papers are dues from my work related study. So have to do something about that.
In februari I will continue with my food inventory and how to use the stuff I already have in my menu planning.
Today I went with a friend to an orchard where the farmer didn’t pick all the apples. I got three bags. Will dehydrate and make apple compote. I also got some potatoes and Jerusalem artichokes. The lather will be made into soup and I will can that.
Another reason I fell off was that I’m not so well health wise. (My blood values are/were worrisome)February 21th I have an appointment in the hospital and they will check me before probable admission later on. What I did do was sign me up for the gym and I’m going there three times per week. Hopefully an improved overall condition will help the blood values as well.
Steadily working on improvement. I will try to get on more often.
