I can not believe it is the middle of the week, little lone the middle of the first month of 2025. Where is time going, I want it to slow down!!!!
This week I am trying to get as many of my little projects done as possible so I can spend more time on those longer projects. Problem is, I keep adding projects to the list.
Most are smaller (well smallish) and I am managing to pull them off along with working on a few of the bigger projects. Still, they do take up time that could be used to get further along on the bigger projects or making sure that nothing foodwise is wasted (that did not go well today as I had to toss a large hunk of cheddar as it was pretty much covered in mold). Fell down on the frugal there. Picking myself up, dusting off and starting over.
I was asked what I meant by "reeds". These are part of my loom and are used to separate the yarn and by moving them up and down on the heddle change the positions so a person can weave. The reed is also used to beat the yarn into position.
I will post a picture of the reeds on Saturday, as well as how far my weaving has progressed.
Off to visit some of you and then get supper on the table.
Everybody have a wonderful evening.
God bless.
Re the cheese, I would have cut the mold off and used the rest. I don't think it's a problem as long as you remove all the mold. You have to go with your own level of comfort though.
ReplyDeleteSeems we all have a lot of those forgotten projects. I will probably still have many this time next year! LOL
ReplyDeleteOn hard cheeses, like cheddar - I just cut off the mold and use it. Soft cheeses - no, but I do that for hard cheese.
I usually start off with a nice list of projects, well organized on paper but then I start. Next thing I know, I've gone down so many rabbit holes that the list gets thrown out. Still, progress is progress.
ReplyDeleteWe call cheese like that a science experiment. Depending on the amount of mold, I normally would cut it off and see what was left, but there are times when something has slipped to the back of the fridge and remains there for so long that I don't trust it and the entire thing goes out.
ReplyDeleteI only brought two projects with me here, and although I've done a bit of knitting and crocheting, I keep finding other things to do, other than my cross stitch. Maybe next week. :)
I don't like wasting any food either, but sometimes it can't be helped.
ReplyDeleteI too have the forgotten piles of projects but my goal this year is to get some of them done!
