Forever in Blue Jeans
I have lots of pairs of jeans, which I like to wear until I can wear no more, usually because the inner seams have worn away. That still leaves a lot of denim!

What's the opposite of "HYGGE" for summer and heat waves and openness? signs of spring?
I prepared for winter with cosy vibes, candles and blankets, holding in warmth and feeling content. now I want to look forward to spring and summer, the breeze, evenings spent out doors and windows open with the scent of flowers . so, I am checking my seed boxes, searching for net curtains in charity shops to put in place…

Weekly Flylady Thread 13th March 2023
What is FLYLADY?

It's here on Old Style to provide the support we all need and to make the whole task easier and quicker. We also…

Gluten free almond tirimasu cake thingy!
Not sure if this is the place to discuss recipes and baking or not? However, I'm trying to come up with my own twist on a combination of a tirimasu I make (which my wife loves!) and an almond cake, which I wheel out for most birthday cakes as a starting point, as its naturally gluten free, required for my Mum. This is the…

Ox kidney
Advice please. The internet variously tells me to soak it in milk, soak it in salt water, or not soak it at all. Is the taste any stronger than pig kidney - I’ve often cooked that before and wouldn’t bother soaking one. I plan to cook the ox kidney in a tomato chili sauce, which is the way I do pig kidney.
