Weekly Flylady Thread 3rd February 2025
Thank you, Valli, for last week's thread. What is FLYLADY? Well, it's our version of the US flylady idea - but we work on
the principle that housework is not fun, it's boring, can be time-consuming, is
often thankless but, unfortunately, necessary. It's here on Old Style to
provide the support we all need and to make the…

Spice cupboard challenge
Welcome to this thread. Due to health reasons, I cook without butter, oil, salt, or sugar. I mean literally. 500ml of olive oil would last more than a year, we still have butter in the freezer that dates back to 2021, and we simply never buy neither sugar nor salt. But I love to cook and I used to use a lot of spices and…

What to do with leftover haggis?
I recently acquired a very RTC haggis, mostly out of curiosity as I've never tried it before. :o Having tried some, I find I quite like the taste but am less sure about the texture, which is a bit 'gloopy' for my liking (with apologies to all Scots for criticising your national dish! :o ). I now have three quarters of a…

Bread not rising enough before baking it kicks in.
I have to switch off my panasonic breadmakers (I've got two) just before they bake, as they don't rise enough. After an hour or so, I bake for 50 minutes. I can't set & forget like I always used to, as I would end up with a dwarf, solid loaf. I have changed the flour, the yeast, the quantity of water, but nothing improves…
