the cold makes me want to clean. somehow. and it’s a good thing too because not much has really been cleaned well since we moved. the stove was a sight after canning 60 plus jars of peaches (a ridiculous amount…thankfully, shared amongst four households). so it began with that.
the most satisfying cleaning project was removing 5 years worth of lime on the bottom of the kettle. i celebrated with making bread from artisan bread in five minutes a day (no kidding…they’re not joking; see here for more inspiration or admire this fine loaf and witness my son devouring a slice).
