I know the feeling, need to get organised but all I'm organising is meeting folk for lunch:o

Have you tasted the yogurt yet????

elantan

Ermmmm nope ... I just hope it ain't gonna be a kefir / sprouted seeds kinda thing lol

Meeting folk for lunch is much more fun though.

elantan

Tasted the yoghurt, it's delicious ... Need to find a way to make it with smaller quantities now as 1 litre of yoghurt is just a tad too much lol

Maybe one day I will make kefir again

Well done on tasting it! Who knows what it'll be next...

Where is a good place to have a store cupboard? I have 3 cupboards in my house all together ( apart from the kitchen and bedroom ones) the first one in the hall has jackets, car cleaning stuff gas and electric metres walking poles and a walking bag

The other cupboard has a water tank thing ( you know one of those things with jackets on them to store hot water?) and towels ... The third cupboard has photograph albums, camping stuff,back pack full of air beds etc, sports stuff, massage stuff, financial stuff, stationery and two guitars ... Everything apart from the photograph albums get used fairly frequently ... I think I could put the camping stuff and photograph albums in the loft ( although there isn't much space up there ... And I don't like the idea of putting someof it up there in case it gets damaged) but I still would have to find space for the rest... And this cupboard is under the stairs so not a huge space either

I notice though that we do buy a lot of stuff in bulk so it would be a good idea to have a kinda store cupboard, just not sure where I can put one

Hmmm

Have you got any room for boxes underneath the bed? then either move some of the stuff from a cupboard there or use as alternative to store cupboard?
