Frontiering

Today's efforts at living both more sustainably and self-sufficiently came in the form of banana bread (to save the too mushy bananas from the garbage), cheddar biscuits (recipe from the Barefoot Contessa), and slow-cooked chili. All of which are pretty tasty, though my biscuits were not as fluffy as I think they should have been (due to my over-kneading, not the recipe).  Now that dinner is done, and as soon as I'm done with this post, I'll be heading out to water the container garden and turn the compost. Then I'll be making dried banana chips. A pioneer lady's work is never done.
