One strategy I have used is that when my loan ended, I kept paying the same amount into a savings account. i was used to managing without the money andit let me start to build an emergency fund.

How long are you planning to store these? PET is gas tight for short/medium storage or the big soft drinks firms would not touch it but I do not know how many years it will last before becoming permeable. As for using CO2. In theory I would expect it to work but you would need to be careful to avoid...

We used it in a pizza and it got the family seal of approval. I then tried Mozarella using some rennet powder and a recipe cobbled together f...

Do you have any family who work in insurance? Some insurers (e.g. LV) do a "mates rate" for employee's family members but their employee has to nominate you first.

I havent dehydrated much this year - I just wasnt really getting surplus of the right sort of things at the right price.
