This is my Plan-B account. I'll post independent content here periodically, and when my primary instance is down. You can visit me at MastoAU at @LifeTimeCooking.

You can find me in the kitchen. If not there I will be in the garden.

@EllenInEdmonton I just heard about some people who have used carrots instead of ginger in a ginger bug, and they say that the "carrot beer" is really wonderful.
Finally finished the peace sign on the back of my denim jacket.
Tomorrow at our family lunch the grandkids are going to draw one or two new designs to embroider.
Time to go back to towels and finish up the last two.

I've been watching some of Shockey's fermentation videos from her online Fermentation School. Current thinking is that 6 different fermented foods per day give excellent results. Of course, fermentistas would say that.

I've had 4 already today, I think. Fermented capsicum, fermented brine (added to the dal), fermented herbs, a shot of beetroot kvass.

I'll have some kimchi with dinner and add some lacto-fermented preserved lemon to the salad/dressing. Or maybe some miso soup.

I think it is in diversity rather than quantity, to get a huge variety of the beneficial microbey thingies.

I need to keep a focus on this for a while as i am on my fifth course of antibiotics in the past 6 months'ish. Current health challenge, an infected finger 😭

Another dip into this morning's dal. I have added greens and some rehydrated yuba sticks. Delicious!
@weezmgk I found her! Maria from Ukraine, in the Food Around The World channel
@weezmgk Do you remember the youtube channel of the woman who grew food and cooked traditional recipes in freezing parts of europe? I think you put me onto it, some time ago now.
@NunavutBirder How is your daughter, Clare? Are you all home yet?
