Last time, I tore apart my kitchen, and started building a shelf. Now, I want to finish it.
It’s finally time to tear apart the kitchen and finish the kitchen project I started in spring. The basement pantry wasn’t working for us, so it was high time to figure out something more usable.
As promised, you are getting answers today. This time, I’ll tell you all about the garden: Do I own the land? Where is the garden? Why am I doing this? Do I have a master plan? Will I be getting….?
I’m about to make a big mess in my basement and kitchen. Let’s get some tools, and prepare for said mess. I wanted to take apart the kitchen the next day, so had to get anything out of the way that needed the kitchen intact.
Within a few days, winter arrived early and in full force. We went from winter wonderland to snowed in. I built a cart to cover and mulch my beds, but then the snow came. We went for long walks in the winter wonderland before the snow storm snowed us in–and I couldn’t even get to class.
After playing catch-up for weeks, I finally get to do some of the things I want to get to. The first snow falls in the forest outside, and I make the best of being stuck indoors–and actually get some things done.
It is so unfair how beautiful it looks outside because it is literally freezing out there. While I am stuck inside, there is a lot to get done around the apartment–a lot of which I won’t get to.
Catch-up days often turn into catch-up weekends. My car broke down three weeks ago. School took up a lot of time. Things didn’t get done. So, I set out to finally make some progress. A million thing at a time, of course.
I set out to make kombucha. And then I got distracted. A few people have wondered just how much work kombucha brewing actually is. So, this time, I show the entire process with you–well, and a lot of the distractions.
On the last day of my four month’s off, I had some projects open. It was a day of firsts and seconds. I made cheese for the first time. I made candles for the second time (if you count my first pretty failed attempt). And then, I made a very special pizza.
