And I wish I could sharpen knives...in the end I bought a good knife sharpener ( The Chantry, if you're interested) which does a great job. Though I still wish I could whizz my knives up and down a steel! My resolution is to stop being a slacker and write more!

My food resolution for 2012 is definately to find more bean recipes I can incorporate into regular/weekly family staples.. also recipes using quinoa, pearl barley etc. Great blog, cheers xxxMrs Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13110933370498728198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8161986605563092156.post-2995119734679172112012-01-11T19:47:00.429+13:002012-01-11T19:47:00.429+13:00I'm with you on wearing gloves to wash up.

I too have a 'crazy recipe clipping lady' thing going on which needs to be sorted out and I'm with Debby on the fresh pasta resolution (this has been on far too many previous lists!).Cazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11853693147709202804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8161986605563092156.post-52327845871271604462012-01-10T10:32:05.903+13:002012-01-10T10:32:05.903+13:00Congratulations on achieving your goal of making a...Congratulations on achieving your goal of making all the bread you eat. That is very impressive. I don't have any kind of talent in breadmaking, although I know that the gene is present in my family as my mum has it.<br /><br />I don't really know how to sharpen knives, but I live around the corner from a knife shop so I just drop them off there once a year to get sharpened. When you do eventually get your knives sharpened – however you do it, it will make cutting a real pleasure.<br /><br />I don't do #4 but I don't have a Small Girl to judge my colourful curses. Maybe when we have little ones, I'll invest in oven mitts.<br /><br />I haven't really thought of 2012 resolutions. I make food/cooking related resolutions every 3 months so I've always got new season specific things that I want to try like trying making sushi, grow mint and make mojitos, go strawberry picking etc.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8161986605563092156.post-82599143657353416082012-01-10T09:15:08.416+13:002012-01-10T09:15:08.416+13:00my one culinary resolution is to post a recipe for...my one culinary resolution is to post a recipe for those enormous glace cherry topped macaroons so you can stop buying them and start making them!... oh and start a new sourdough... some chick send me some and i've been too lazy arsed to bring it to life!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11431297921869969693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8161986605563092156.post-83759520736713636892012-01-10T09:05:30.967+13:002012-01-10T09:05:30.967+13:00Lucy, baking ALL your own bread?
