I decided to dehydrate some canned carrots, as you know, to free up pantry space and make some carrot “powder” to sneak into recipes…they practically disappeared! 🤣 but I did get some powder out of them 👍

Check it out! I started my first compost attempt!

Yogurt day! 🥛 I use a bit of reserved yogurt from my last batch — kind of like a sourdough starter, but not — and it goes into the bread machine with ultra pasteurized milk to sit at a constant temperature for about 10 hours. Low effort, high payoff. I’ll put it in the fridge overnight to let it finish firming up, and tomorrow morning I’ll have a fresh quart of plain yogurt ready to eat! I love to stir in honey or jam and homemade granola (which I’ll talk more about on another day!) 😋

Finally got to the tomatoes today. 🍅 They’re in the dehydrator overnight, doing their thing while I sleep. Also ground up the dried zucchini from last time into powder — into the jar it goes, along with a food-grade silica packet to soak up any sneaky moisture 🫣 Slowly but surely, the garden overflow is turning into something I can actually use!
