So used this mornings milk to make yogurt. First time I've used this yogurt maker, bought used 5/2018. Like new, whoever donated to habitat didn't use it much either. But I had bought enzymes last yr, so pulled some from freezer & we're doing it.

I'll report results tomorrow

The canned green beans are .76 a can now.

.50 january, .68 march.

And just one little item!! 50% increase.

Big gov saying just 5-10% for most groceries. That's BS.

It's why food banks are swamped. Add these crazy cuts to funding & jobs -- I see a lot of trouble for people it's not just meat & eggs!!!

I used to buy 5 lbs of Gold Star brand of Jasmine Rice for $5 a bag. All the time in '22 and '23.

Today I looked at it at the very same store and it was $10.99.

I'm very glad I have alot of it put away. Its my fav rice.

i never had to buy a starter since i always had yogurt in the fridge. i'm hoping it turns out great.

i used to have this big computer monitor that had enough mass that i could put two quarts of yogurt on top of it to ferment and it kept them at the perfect temperature. made hundreds of quarts on it - gladly never spilled any on it... that'd been a mess...

Most store brands have additives now. Thickeners, preservatives, flavoring, colors, etc. some of this batch can be used as starter -- if I want to make more. I've used the couple brands without & it was cow milk but, this was here. As was the goat milk. Best to use same type milk. We'll see if it's what people say

Not food but the shampoo I use was $8 a bottle regular price last year. It's $16 now.

For over a year I've kept an old bottle and mix up a bit 50/50 with water every few days. Spreads easier so I use less. It's a trick used for shampooing dogs easier
