Demain, le garde-manger sera enterré comme dans l'Antiquité !

Depuis la nuit des temps, les hommes ont cherché des moyens efficaces de conserver leur nourriture. L’invention du réfrigérateur électrique datant du XIXe siècle, les populations utilisaient auparavant des caves, des greniers, ou encore des puits pour maintenir leurs aliments au frais. Ce savoir-faire séculaire refait surface, mais sa forme s’avère résolument moderne. Découvrez le « Groundfridge », une version novatrice du garde-manger enterré !

It is No Spend January on the homestead.

This means-- aside from the obvious of not spending money-- that it is time to get creative with what we have in the freezers and pantries.

There is very minimal spending allowed, and it is really only if necessary for fresh produce. This is fine.

I made a batch of potato and onion soup that I have been eating through, as well as having eaten a small piece of the family's pot roast last night. Tonight, they had sausage and potatoes.

While looking through what we have, I decided to make butter with the heavy cream we had leftover from another project... which lead to the next plan of making a crusty Italian bread tomorrow that can be eaten with the soup, dipped in oil, or slathered in butter.

Not one to be known to take on an appropriate amount of projects simultaneously... homemade beef jerky is also on the menu for tomorrow. I figure the jerky is a good protein packed snack that will last for a bit, and even longer if I vacuum-pack it.

Wish me luck!
