I have a butter bell but kitchen stays too warm most of the year and the butter ball slips out of the butter bell and plops into the water. It does make a nice soft and spreadable butter during winter and spring. This is what you are calling a butter bell, right?

I have an aging zojirushi bread machine and use it regularly. I make bread and pound cake in it weekly, I also make jam in it. Spoiled me away from store bread.

"Bob" Countertop filter I've had an ecosoft filter for years. My daughter learned to love her sitter's filtered water and I ended up getting one for us. It's actually sold as "Bob"on their website and we still refer to it by that name. I looked at Berkeys & a few terracotta filters but I...

My grandmother had one, also, and there's a family story about my Aunt Sandy getting her arm in the wringer. Aunt Sandy is 80 now, I'll tell her about seeing this on a chicken website and she'll get a laugh!

Ironing?? People still do that?

I have used the Gamma seal lids and have some that are about 10 years old and still in use. I use Smart Seal lid assemblies from True Leaf Market https://www.trueleafmarket.com/ They are not cheap but you can use them on any standard 5 gallon bucket and mine have lasted forever. I am currently...

I would use toggle closures. I hate velcro but it could be used here. Toggles can be sewn over the old zipper easily by hand. You can remove the old zipper or just leave it. Make sure you can open them easily before you put them on. Some have loops that are small and will need to be stretched...

I have a heavy duty tripod that is height adjustable that I have used as a clothesline base. Only 2 problems are that it needs to be weighted down on windy days and I trip over the legs if not watching where I walk...I think either would work on a deck.

I love that smell also and line dry everything. I started doing it when my dryer broke and just continued doing it...my (grown) children still think the dryer's broken and that I am too cheap/goofy to fix it. But it was just a belt I fixed it that first week. One of my old T poles that held up...

I rented one of the early hybrids for a trip from Louisiana to Virginia. I was excited at the the extended range I would be getting, you know, all the electric miles plus all the gas miles. I didn't think I would have to stop for gas but maybe once or twice. The joke was on me - they shrank the...

These are walmart reuseable filters. I have one for the 8 cup and the other size, a 4 cup. They have been available for years and I just buy one for each new coffee pot style. No sediment issues that I noticed.

I am glad you explained! At first glance, I thought, "Oh no, someone's drying toilet paper..."

I am currently staggering partial rows of carrots, radishes and beets. My greens (several varieties) sort of survived the last big freeze and I am starting a few replacements in the house. I confess that I get tired of greens...but have started finding new ways to cook them and use them. (Mixed...

I tried the reuseable wooden toothbrushes bambuu brushes but my dentist wanted me to start using a waterpic. I use feed bags to make hay feeders for the goats haybag, for kindling storage and for barn trash. I am pretty self sufficient, and I measure that by how many trips I have to make to...
