We're a zero-food waste household, but leftovers seem to make better meals, for some reason. :)NYK in Frugaldomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01702184851369212088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7872493581238440851.post-76967778796736715612014-01-19T20:47:03.826+00:002014-01-19T20:47:03.826+00:00Leftover cake, brioche or croissants?

LOL I've even been known to use the fruit strained from the fruit fizz winemaking to make into pudding, it's fine as long as it hasn't started fermenting :)NYK in Frugaldomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01702184851369212088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7872493581238440851.post-23996162881277233342014-01-19T20:44:45.431+00:002014-01-19T20:44:45.431+00:00RW, that's how I ended up with the jars I'...RW, that's how I ended up with the jars I'm using up now - they're from last year or possibly even the year before that. As long as they're sealed, I think they should last for years - I have one large tub still to use but won't break the seal on it until I am sure I can use it all up within a couple of days in puddings, pies, cakes and biscuits.NYK in Frugaldomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01702184851369212088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7872493581238440851.post-63025204534102241512014-01-19T20:42:17.931+00:002014-01-19T20:42:17.931+00:00What an exciting find!

My latest clear out has now uncovered some family genealogy notes - another unfinished project of mine when I ran out of credit on the heritage sites. Guessing that can be an expensive hobby and easily one that could swallow up a few pounds along the way. Family notebooks and diaries are always way more interesting. :)NYK in Frugaldomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01702184851369212088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7872493581238440851.post-85533238911249432612014-01-19T20:39:05.277+00:002014-01-19T20:39:05.277+00:00A pack of ginger cake mix next to get made and use...A pack of ginger cake mix next to get made and used here, it's lovely under custard, too.

We've used up the 'mush' from making blackberry jelly in this way - a spoonful or so in a crumble at a time :) It seemed a waste to just get rid of the mush after making the jelly! A few elderberries (picked from the trees along the canal and then frozen) pretty up a charlotte or crumble (made with the seemingly never ending gluts of apples and pears from the garden) too. <br /><br />Other things good for using up 'bits' - flapjacks - small amounts of seeds go in here, the dust and crumbs from the bottom of a pack of cornflakes, the syrup in the pot of glace cherries. I've also used the last half dozen mini shredded whe@t left when there were no further packs and they were just sat in the cupboard - I crumbled them in :)<br />Rocky road/ fridge cake is good for using chocolates which no one likes, those soft biscuits, unliked cereal, dry cake, leftover brioche/ croissants) Mrs Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10107429545245947483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7872493581238440851.post-91745339665827604682014-01-19T08:54:14.609+00:002014-01-19T08:54:14.609+00:00Your pudding sounds delicious NYK !

I LOVE leftover pudding. I was recently given three McVities ginger cakes [all slightly squashed- just don't ask] and have been slicing them up them with random bits of leftover fruit and odd pots of yogurt into fancy sundae glasses for desserts since Xmas. What is IN those cakes - they seem to last indefinitely? they would probably survive a nuclear attack and then be eaten by the cockroaches.Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13494078135251214182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7872493581238440851.post-88539533495627562182014-01-18T15:36:33.415+00:002014-01-18T15:36:33.415+00:00We love custard in all its guises - hides a multit...We love custard in all its guises - hides a multitude of sins, a bit like a good gravy or sauce. :)NYK in Frugaldomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01702184851369212088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7872493581238440851.post-66029330181955638562014-01-18T15:35:28.009+00:002014-01-18T15:35:28.009+00:00My theory is that if it's edible, it's wor...My theory is that if it's edible, it's worked!
