I Wanted A Simple Life

A day living slowly and simply at my rural Scottish cottage. It's hard work, but it's the best kind of work.

No-Knead, Dutch Oven Bread Recipe: (I substituted 50g of flour for mixed seeds) https://www.girlversusdough.com/no-kn...

The curry recipe is something I've improvised over the years!

My mug is from Julia Smith Ceramics (not sponsored - it’s my favourite and I always get questions about it!) https://juliasmithceramics.bigcartel....

The Backstory:
I've been stuck in rut for the past couple of years - both my parents passed away at the end of 2022 and since then I've been navigating grief, burnout and just being scared to make a change. I decided that 2024 was going to be the year I set my life on fire, because life is too short to spend all of it wondering just what the point is. So I quit my job, sold my house in the suburbs and bought a 150yr old cottage in the middle of the Scottish countryside. Follow along as I attempt to renovate this little stone house, build a backyard homestead and hopefully fall in love with life, all over again.
Spoiler alert - I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing, so almost anything could happen.
