Ok, I did sterilise things like I do for jam but I didn't do the water bath thing so it must be the wild yeasts, I am not complaining though! At this stage they are in the fridge and not too alcoholic- probably less than light beer. I am planning on finishing them over xmas/new years so hopefully no...

Well I haven't got my act together to get any goats milk yet but I did make almond and oat milk yesterday and have been reducing the amount of milk so today he had a bottle of the nut milk before bed quite happily instead of having five little bottles of cow milk throughout the day. His rash which h...

I made elderflower cordial and I thought I did a good job of it but they are all fizzy. delightful and obviously mildly alcoholic. Am I going to harm myself by drinking this?

I will try goats milk, I am a bit iffy about soy milk esp for boys- I figure it is better to avoid it than risk the rumours of hormonal disruptions being true. Whenever I go to the Dr. with health complaints I am told there are many complicated expensive tests which are inconclusive and/or there is ...

Not me that's for sure! I know I have trouble "being" and trying to get my dear husband to stop doing things constantly BE...

Unfortunately that one would go over my head two fold- one I suspect it is a country specific reference and two if it was a reference to the Australian celebrity masterchef I still wouldn't have the foggiest!

Hello, I am particularly taken with your forum name!

Actually I would love it if I had stuff on regretsy but I hasd to stop my obsession with it as it was taking too much of my time.. oh the hideous craft!
