Just a place for general discussion. A place to unload whats on your mind and talk about anything - personal, health, help needed, achievements, daily highs and daily lows, theories, predictions and what have you.
Does not need to be Q related.
I'm really getting into making more things from scratch - like home made. I have already made sausage- I make ice cream, am learning to make pasta, I want to get into making bread too. I make waffles - to take the place of Eggos. I am now researching how to make homemade dog food. I am going to make my own vanilla extract (Vanilla beans and alcohol) I always thought things were more complicated to make etc. but it's really not. It is also much better for you when you don't have all the preservatives etc. added. I am ready to try to make my own butter too. We shall see.
I also have a small raised garden going. I have tomatoes, peppers, cukes, green beans and this year I am trying something new. I got growing bags online. I am trying to grow potatoes and also on onions. I'm excited to see how that will turn out.
Sounds like a well formulated plan coming together.
This is the easiest bread recipe I've ever used, and versatile as well.

Butter's a breeze, it should lead you to yogurt and soft cheese, then you can venture into hard cheeses.
Medicine Tinctures are basically the same thing you're doing with your vanilla bean. Something you should look into. Heal thyself is the battle cry of the survivor.
Sounds like you're having fun. God bless.
