Day 1 Task: Declutter and purge fridge and freezer, clean.
There comes a time in every person’s life when you’re forced to face uncomfortable truths about yourself. Last week I experienced such a moment when I opened my refrigerator to start cleaning it out. I stood there for a time, letting all the cold air escape, and with it this inescapable fact: I am a messy refrigerator bag lady.

Q: I started making yogurt a few months ago and the results have been rather inconsistent. My friend’s mother showed me how, which is basically the same method The Kitchn posted. I didn’t have a thermometer the first time, but the result was what I consider perfect yogurt. Beginner’s luck, maybe, the batches that followed got progressively worse.

Way back in February of 2008, I wrote Washing-Up Buddha, my first Weekend Meditation for The Kitchn. It’s been years since I’ve revisited that post, so I took another look this morning just to see what I was up to back then. I had long forgotten what I wrote and I was a little worried. Would I find that I feel differently than I did then? Did I say something I wished I hadn’t? Have I changed a lot or maybe not enough?
