I’m unravel and re-knit too. When I’m not cutting and resewing or redishing leftovers. I have no Scottish heritage to blame. Can I blame my Jewish grandfather perchance?

I blame my Scottish mother, who had a birthday yesterday, but drive my partner mad.
Not as bad as Mum - she used to unravel woollen jumpers and re-knit them in a different style just to keep her hands busy. Always giving away jumpers and collecting those that the family were no longer using to recycle.

The bulk thing pays off Docwitch but you really need to find a way to store it to make it work. Otherwise stuff just gets buried. My house is tiny but the pantry is a reasonable size, plus I have an extra freezer. I don’t know how I’d manage otherwise. Me being me I’m sure I’d find a way.

You’re doing some great things with left overs! I love the challenge of transformation too, it’s really satisfying creatively, and of course good for the budget. I really must try and get into bulk buying, it’s not something I’ve ever done. I don’t know why great quantities slightly faze me, but they do. Maybe it’s the sight of my crammed and disorganised cupboards that put me off! It makes a lot of sense though.

I love the creative challenge of making something new and fresh with something old. I do it with clothes too, cut and resew them into something else. It’s so philosophically sound. Besides, bulk buying is cheap buying : )

More great work. I hate seeing waste and hate repeating the same food in the next meal. Love seeing somebody else prepared to use the little morsels to produce a completley different cuisine. It is alwasy good when the audience approves too - makes it worth that effort. Drive the other half mad when I say not to buy such large amounts if we haven’t got a specific dish in mind to prepare. But then there’s a challenge too to find ways to use the produce to make varying meals.
