Does anyone have any other skills - such as carpentry?

I love real wood furniture, floors, worktops and have been thinking about learning!

Which got me thinking, anybody have any other skills-based interest? Perhaps you are a mean cook? Artist? Know your way around an engine? Electrics? Etc :smiley:

Suddenly I remembered this thread :smiley:
Some weeks ago I changed from yeast to sourdough. Since then I also eat less sweet things like jam or honey on the bread, as other things fit better.

Edit: Here’s the recipe:

I usually don’t use a recipe for my bread as it’s very simple: 300g water, 500g flour, one teaspoon of salt, one teaspoon of sourdough or a small amount of yeast. Bake after 24 hours :wink:

Ok, maybe one day I could write it down a bit more detailed :smiley:

Actually, a while ago I wrote a page for keeping my and my friends recipes:
https://kitchendwarf.com/
Feel free to use if you like :wink: It’s “quick and dirty” PHP, still needs a rewrite in elixir/phoenix with all the features I have in mind, but atm its “good enough”.
