I wish I could! But living in a new house means I need new blinds, the garage needs extending, door on the front of the house, new roof), new flooring throughout in the house (the hideous cheap laminate is damaged in every single room), and the garden will need some infrastructure putting in place before I start in earnest to plant it up. A pizza oven will be built in the social area of the garden.

But.. having said that, I reuse wherever I can. For example, we took down the blinds in the kitchen, and one of them has been put up in my little office, to replace the outdated curtains that the previous owners left behind.

I also try to shop locally - I buy spuds from a local farmer, who also supplied goose fat for Christmas. I buy as much as I can from the local guy running a corner shop directly opposite me, who also has a post office in the shop - he's invaluable!

I buy almost all of our meat from a surplus shop that is dirt cheap, and I have a huge chest freezer, an upright freezer and the freezer in our American fridge freezer full of bargain priced food.

I pledge to grow more of my own in 2022.

I also will try to get the local council to convert the field behind our house to allotments, as the village doesn't have any and thus help other people in the village to eat healthy, cheaply and locally. It would also stop them building houses on it! Smile
