1xBet APK désigne le fichier qui permet d’installer l’application 1xBet sur un appareil Android lorsque l’application n’est pas installée depuis Google Play. Comprendre ce fichier avant de l’ouvrir permet de distinguer l’installation elle-même, la vérification de la source et l’utilisation du compte. Le téléchargement doit commencer par la page mobile publiée par 1xBet, puis l’utilisateur doit contrôler ce qu’il ouvre et limiter les autorisations accordées au strict nécessaire.

On peut rapprocher cette procédure de « 1xbet téléchargement » afin de mieux distinguer le fichier APK de l’application déjà installée.

Du fichier APK à l’application installée

APK est l’abréviation d’Android Package Kit. Il s’agit d’un paquet d’installation conçu pour Android, comparable au fichier utilisé par le système pour ajouter une application. Dans le cas de 1xBet APK, le fichier contient les éléments nécessaires au déploiement de l’application 1xBet sur l’appareil. Il ne s’agit pas d’un compte, d’un moyen de paiement ou d’une preuve que le fichier est authentique.

Un APK téléchargé en dehors de Google Play demande une attention supplémentaire parce que l’installation ne passe pas entièrement par le circuit habituel de la boutique. Android affiche donc des contrôles de sécurité et demande généralement l’autorisation d’installer une application provenant d’une source inconnue. Cette autorisation concerne la source qui ouvre le fichier, et non pas automatiquement toutes les applications présentes sur le téléphone.

La disponibilité de 1xBet sur Google Play peut varier selon la région. L’absence de l’application dans la boutique à un moment donné ne permet donc pas de tirer une conclusion universelle. L’utilisateur doit se reporter à la page mobile publiée par 1xBet et aux informations affichées pour son contexte.

Télécharger 1xBet APK sans mélanger les copies

1xBet présente son accès mobile sur 1xbet.com/fr/mobile ; le domaine final peut varier selon la région. Le domaine final compte davantage que le texte affiché sur un bouton.

Le téléchargement doit être effectué depuis la page mobile publiée par 1xBet ou depuis une page officielle clairement rattachée au service. Cette précaution vise d’abord à éviter les copies, les fichiers modifiés et les pages qui imitent l’apparence de la marque. Une adresse familière, une icône ou le simple fait que le téléchargement se termine ne suffit toutefois pas à prouver l’authenticité.

Avant de lancer le téléchargement, vérifiez que la page présente bien l’application 1xBet, que le lien correspond à la page mobile de 1xBet et que les informations sont cohérentes avec le service attendu. Évitez les versions modifiées, les miroirs tiers et les liens transmis sans contexte. Ne cherchez pas non plus à contourner une restriction imposée par un appareil administré : dans ce cas, il faut suivre les règles de l’organisation concernée.

Une fois le fichier récupéré, notez son emplacement afin de pouvoir l’examiner avant l’ouverture. Ne le partagez pas avec d’autres personnes et ne multipliez pas les téléchargements depuis plusieurs sites, car cela rendrait la comparaison des sources plus difficile.

Suivre la demande système pendant l’installation

L’installation se déroule dans l’ordre suivant. Les intitulés peuvent changer légèrement selon la version d’Android et la surcouche du fabricant, mais la logique reste la même.

Étape 1. Ouvrez la page mobile publiée par 1xBet avec le navigateur utilisé sur l’appareil Android, puis téléchargez le fichier APK proposé pour l’application.

Étape 2. Accédez aux téléchargements du navigateur ou au gestionnaire de fichiers et localisez le paquet récupéré. Avant de l’ouvrir, confirmez qu’il provient bien de la page officielle consultée.

Étape 3. Touchez le fichier pour démarrer l’installation. Android peut afficher un blocage lié aux applications inconnues, car le fichier ne vient pas directement de Google Play.

Étape 4. Ouvrez les réglages proposés par Android et autorisez temporairement l’application qui a ouvert le fichier, par exemple le navigateur ou le gestionnaire de fichiers.

Étape 5. Revenez à l’écran d’installation, examinez les informations affichées, puis confirmez uniquement si la source et le fichier correspondent à ce que vous attendiez.

Étape 6. Lorsque l’installation est terminée, ouvrez 1xBet depuis le raccourci créé ou depuis la liste des applications.

Étape 7. Retournez dans les réglages de sécurité et retirez l’autorisation accordée à la source de téléchargement. Cette étape réduit la possibilité qu’elle installe ultérieurement un autre paquet sans votre décision.

L’autorisation n’a pas besoin de rester active pour utiliser 1xBet. Elle sert uniquement à permettre au navigateur ou au gestionnaire de fichiers de lancer ce paquet d’installation. La retirer après l’opération conserve un contrôle plus précis sur les installations futures.

Séparer les indices utiles des fausses garanties

La vérification doit intervenir avant l’installation, et non seulement après l’ouverture de l’application. Revenez à la page officielle si vous avez un doute sur le lien utilisé. Contrôlez le domaine, la cohérence du contenu et le chemin suivi pour parvenir au téléchargement. Ne considérez pas HTTPS, le nom du fichier, une icône ou l’installation réussie comme une preuve suffisante : ces éléments peuvent être reproduits ou ne renseignent pas à eux seuls sur l’origine réelle du paquet.

Un outil de sécurité peut signaler un problème, mais l’absence d’alerte ne garantit pas l’authenticité du fichier. De même, un fichier qui s’installe correctement peut rester différent de celui distribué par la page mobile de 1xBet. En cas de doute sérieux sur l’origine, n’ouvrez pas le paquet et reprenez le téléchargement depuis la page officielle plutôt que de chercher une copie ailleurs.

Il est également utile de vérifier les demandes affichées par Android et par l’application après son ouverture. Une demande inattendue doit être comprise avant d’être acceptée. Ne donnez pas une autorisation simplement parce qu’elle apparaît pendant l’installation ou la première connexion.

Trois contrôles techniques gouvernent l’actualisation : identité du paquet inchangée, version code compatible avec celle installée et certificat de signature accepté par Android.

Pour une mise à jour, utilisez le parcours Android publié par 1xBet. Cette continuité réduit les risques de conflit entre paquets provenant de sources différentes, mais elle ne prouve pas à elle seule que le fichier est authentique. La vérification de la page et du téléchargement reste donc nécessaire à chaque nouvelle version.

Avant de remplacer l’application, assurez-vous de connaître vos identifiants et terminez les opérations importantes dans le compte. Il ne faut pas supposer automatiquement que la session ou toutes les données seront conservées après une mise à jour. Android peut afficher une confirmation ou un avertissement si le paquet ne correspond pas à l’installation existante. Si le système signale une incompatibilité ou une origine différente, interrompez l’opération et vérifiez la source au lieu de forcer l’installation.

Après la mise à jour, contrôlez l’ouverture de l’application, l’accès au compte et les fonctions que vous utilisez habituellement. Retirez à nouveau l’autorisation d’installation accordée au navigateur ou au gestionnaire de fichiers si elle a été réactivée.

Observer l’interface réellement proposée au compte

Après l’ouverture, 1xBet peut regrouper les paris sportifs, les rencontres en direct, l’historique des opérations, le retrait anticipé proposé sur certains paris, les notifications et l’accès au compte. L’organisation exacte des menus dépend du pays, du compte et de la version de l’application. Il est donc préférable de lire les intitulés et les conditions affichés dans l’application plutôt que de supposer qu’une fonction sera disponible partout.

Les notifications peuvent servir à suivre une activité ou une information liée au compte, mais elles ne doivent pas être activées sans comprendre leur utilité. L’historique permet de consulter les actions enregistrées dans le compte, tandis que le direct et le retrait anticipé proposé sur certains paris peuvent dépendre des événements et des règles affichés au moment de l’utilisation. L’application mobile ne modifie pas les conditions applicables aux paris et ne garantit aucun résultat.

Lors de la première ouverture, vérifiez que le nom du service, les menus et le parcours de connexion correspondent à ce que vous attendiez. En cas de demande inhabituelle, fermez l’application et reprenez les contrôles de source plutôt que de saisir immédiatement des informations de compte.

Ce que le site mobile évite d’installer

1xBet APK concerne uniquement Android. Un iPhone n’installe pas un fichier APK : lorsque l’application est disponible, l’utilisateur passe par l’App Store. Sinon, il peut utiliser le site mobile dans Safari. Le site mobile peut aussi être consulté depuis Android, mais il ne correspond pas exactement à une installation APK et ses fonctions peuvent être présentées différemment.

Ces options donnent accès à un même service, mais elles ne reposent pas sur le même mode de distribution. Il ne faut donc pas tenter d’installer un APK sur iPhone ni chercher à remplacer les contrôles propres à l’App Store par une source non officielle.

Identifier l’application qui demande l’autorisation

Un refus d’installation peut venir d’une autorisation absente, d’un téléchargement incomplet, d’un fichier qui ne correspond pas à l’appareil ou d’une installation existante provenant d’une autre source. Commencez par lire le message exact affiché par Android et vérifiez la source du fichier. Ne désactivez pas globalement les protections du téléphone et ne forcez pas une installation bloquée.

• Si Android bloque les applications inconnues, autorisez uniquement le navigateur ou le gestionnaire de fichiers qui a ouvert le paquet, puis réessayez depuis le fichier téléchargé.
• Si le fichier ne s’ouvre pas ou paraît incomplet, supprimez ce téléchargement et récupérez-le à nouveau depuis la page mobile de 1xBet, sans utiliser de miroir tiers.
• Si une version déjà installée crée un conflit, vérifiez d’abord que la nouvelle version vient du même parcours de téléchargement. N’effacez pas des données du compte sans savoir ce que cette action implique.
• Si le problème persiste, utilisez le site mobile ou consultez l’assistance officielle, en conservant le message d’erreur exact et les étapes déjà effectuées.

Sur un appareil professionnel ou familial administré, une politique peut empêcher l’installation. Il ne faut pas la contourner : demandez l’autorisation à l’administrateur ou choisissez un accès autorisé par les règles de l’appareil.

Fermer proprement le parcours d’installation Android

Une installation réussie n’est que la fin de l’étape technique. Ouvrez l’application et contrôlez la cohérence de son interface, puis vérifiez la source utilisée si un doute subsiste. Assurez-vous également que l’autorisation d’installer des applications inconnues a été retirée pour le navigateur ou le gestionnaire de fichiers concerné.

Examinez les notifications, les autorisations et les réglages du compte avant toute utilisation. Gardez vos identifiants confidentiels et ne les saisissez pas dans une page ouverte depuis un lien dont l’origine n’est pas certaine. Enfin, vérifiez les règles applicables à votre situation et utilisez le service uniquement si vous avez l’âge légal requis ; les paris sont réservés aux personnes majeures et doivent rester pratiqués de manière responsable.

Si la source, le fichier ou une demande de l’application reste incertain, la décision prudente consiste à ne pas poursuivre l’installation et à revenir à la page officielle 1xBet. Cette vérification prend moins de temps qu’une correction après l’ouverture d’un paquet inadapté.

This past Christmas, my (kinda)mother- in-law gave me and the mr these really cool honey bee pins in our stockings. Nothing fancy, just a little pin, but I think it was one of the best gifts that I had gotten all year. The pin lives on my winter jacket.

And now I am into pins.

So a couple of the little’s came over yesterday after school for crafts and dinner and I figured a bit of pin making would be a perfect little project for us to do. And being that it’s the big V day coming up,%u00a0 making these pins heart shaped was more then overly appropriate. (What’s Valentines day without cute little hearts?) Well pin making we did, or I did, not so much for them. They made a few, but in the end, they were more excited to beat the crap out of the mr and to eat carrot shavings with peanut butter and nutella.. Totally ok with me because really, I was the one that wanted a little craft time and the mr did need to get his butt kicked.

Sure I made these pins pretty much for myself, but imagine the possibilities. Make a bunch to give out to your friends, family, neighbors, or even the mail man!? Or if you have yourself a little, how great would these pins be make and to give to all their little classmates. I know that if received one of these pins in my homemade shoe box mail box meant to collect all of my candy studded, drugstore bought valentines. I would have been elated and rocked that pin all year long on my super cool backpack.(grade schooler, they have all the fun) Right after I finished painting and gluing all my pins, Miley then decided that they were freaking awesome and wanted to make a bunch more…. Well little little, to late, time to go home. But I did give her a bunch to bring back with her. She will just have to bug her mom to make some more.

And sure, I mention valentines day when talking about these pins, but really, hearts are for everyday, and are still really great long after V day is over.

Handmade heart pins = love!

Stuff you need for some awesome pins.

• Polymer clay (I used white but any color will do)
• red and white paint (preferably enamel or a high gloss paint) and a paint brush
• bar pin backs (I bought these at Michael ‘s craft store. 64 for like 3 bucks!)
• industrial strength glue (E600 is great and is used and recommended by many a crafters)
• rolling pin or wooden dowel
• small heart shaped cutter
• sharpie pen to write on pins (optional)
• Glitter( also optional)

A couple notes. You could use red clay but I have found that when I buy the red dyed clay, its always harder to work with and plus, it stainsyour hands. Also, I like to seal the clay and enamel paint does the trick. If you don’t want to paint it, just pain on a coat of clear sealer.

Start buy kneading a chunk of clay a little bit to get it to a workable state, then roll into a ball and roll out flat. I rolled mine out about 1/3 of an inch, but I also knew I wanted to squish it out a little flatter once I cut the shapes out.

Cut out your hearts, or if you want, free form them.%u00a0 What I did was used my tiny heart cookie cutter to cut the initial shape, but then used my thumb and squished them all out a bit bigger.

Note here.. Hears are awesome and amazing, but other shapes….Go for it. You probably have a shit tone of those pin backs.

And just before you bake them, make sure that the pins you are using will fit behind the hearts. (if you notice any visible pin, just smoosh the heart out a little more).

Into the oven,, out of the oven. Read the package to make sure, but the stuff I used only needed to be baked for 15 minutes at 275

Once out of the oven, let completely cool and harden.

Once the hearts are cooled, go ahead and paint them. Use straight up one color, or mix and make a few different shades. (red, white and pink are nice together)

You can add some glitter to the wet paint to add a little bling….

Or add designs or what have you. Do whatever feels right.

Now stick a pin thingy on the back of each heart with a blob of glue. (If you use the E600, make sure to use it near a window or somewhere ventilated.. it really stinks for a few minutes)

Let the glue dry (this glue was completely dry within an hour, but follow glue package instructions)

And if you want, grab the sharpie, make sure the paint is really dry (at least an hour) and write a little something on the hearts.

And now the hard part.. which one goes to who and which one (or 4) do you keep for yourself. (you can always make more!)

Have fun!

It%u2019s that time of year again. Time to make the hot sauce!

This year I wanted to do a little twist on my usual plain old jalape%u00f1o hot sauce. And to be honest, I wanted to use up the pineapple juice that I had stashed away in the pantry that I was using to make popsicles for the littles all summer. But mostly it%u2019s because pineapple and jalape%u00f1o are a fantastic flavoring pairing and I knew that adding the pineapple to the hot sauce would only be a great idea.

A great idea it was.

This hot sauce is basic. Hot peppers, vinegar, and a little onion, garlic, and salt. The pineapple juice adds more body, some sweetness, and just a nice undertone of pineappleiness that you didn%u2019t know you really wanted. It is really really good. And about the jalape%u00f1os. They are one of those peppers that can be pretty mild but also can get pretty dang hot. I am not sure of the variety that I have been picking at that farm for the past few years (that is where I get my peppers), but they are always on the pretty dang hot side so my hot sauces always have a good amount of kick to them. If you find your peppers to be a little too mild for you, well go ahead and add a few habaneros to the mix.

Now to the hot sauce!

The stuff. Jalape%u00f1os of course (green, red, or both. I picked both), an onion, a couple cloves garlic, pineapple juice, white vinegar, and salt.

Chop onion and garlic up into chunks on the small side.

Jalape%u00f1os. Chop them up. You want to get rid of the stems and depending on how hot you want your sauce, you might want to remove the seeds and ribs. I don%u2019t bother because we like it hot, but also it%u2019s annoying. HA.

Note. When dealing with any hot peppers, make sure to not touch your face during or after. You will feel it. They are hot.

Toss it all into a pot. Sprinkle with salt and add a splash of water. Place on stove on medium heat to give the peppers and onion a little head start on cooking.

After softening the peppers and onions for about 10 minutes, add the liquid.

Partially cover with a lid and simmer the peppers until they are fall apart tender. Probably about 35-40 minute.

Peppers so soft, ready to go.

Let it cool a few minutes then dump it all Into a blender. Blend until completely blended.

Smooth as smooth can be.

Taste it (like dip a carrot of a piece of bread into it) and add more salt if nessacery. Also, if it is too thick for your liking, add a little water to thin it out.

Hot hot hot sauce for the taking.

And look here, enough for you and maybe even a friend or two%u2026 Holidays are coming!

Enjoy the sauce!

-C

makes between 5-6 cups

• 25-30 good sized jalape%u00f1os (green or red or both)

• 2-3 cloves garlic

• 1 medium yellow or white onion

• 2 cups pineapple juice or puree

• 2 cups white vinegar

• 2 teaspoons salt

• water

Cut the onion into small chunks and roughly mince the garlic. Grab jalape%u00f1os and remove stems. Remove seeds and ribs if you want less heat in the sauce, then chop into small pieces. Place the onion, garlic, and peppers into a big pot with a splash of water. Sprinkle with salt and stick on stove on medium heat and cook for 5-10 minutes or until you can smell the onion and peppers starting to cook.

Dump in the pineapple juice and 1/2 the vinegar. Stir and bring to a boil. Once boiling, partially cover then reduce heat to low. Simmer for about 30-40 minutes or until peppers are very tender.

NOTE.. Have a window open or exhaust fan going.. the fumes are spicy!

Once peppers have soften, remove form heat and let cool a few minutes. Dump or scoop the contents of pot into a blender. Add in the remaining vinegar and blend until very smooth. Once blended, taste and season with more salt if needed. Also if the consistency is to thick for your liking, add in a little water to thin out.

And then bottle it. Whatever sized jars you like, just make sure the lids are not metal if you can avoid it. The acidity of the vinegar will corrode the metal.

Add a label, stick in fridge, and eat on whoever the heck you want! (Also makes a great gift and there is defiantly enough here to give some away!)

Note. It only gets better with age!

I talk a lot about how much coffee I drink (and yes, I do drink a lot of coffee) but honestly, I drink just as much if not more tea. Almost always herbal, sometimes a bag, sometimes loose leaf. In the cold months I probably drink 5 cups a day (well actually I drink it out of big ball jars and drink 2-3 of those big jars a day) So yeah, I drink a lot of tea too.

This tea blend is one of my favorites. Licorice is delicious. Sweet and spicy, not to mention fantastic for any respiratory ailments you might be having (licorice root is one of my go to%u2019s for medicinal purposes) Adding all the other spices just brings even more amazing spicy goodness that will make your house smell amazing and make you face smile a smile. A perfect tea to place on the stove to sip on all day, warm your insides and hands (best cure for cold hands is a hot mug) and most likely put you in a cheery festive mood because we are in the thick of all the holidays and sweet and spicy mulled hot drinks will do that to a person.

Take a few minutes, make some tea, and take care of yourself. It will be good. Trust.

To the tea!!

The stuff. Cut and sifted licorice root, whole or hulled cardamon pods (use one or the other), whole cloves, a couple cinnamon stick, some fresh ginger, and and orange.

Not much needs to be done, just slice the ginger into a few thin pieces (you don%u2019t even need to peel it) and peel the good parts of the orange off (avoid the white pith) then add it to a pot with the spices and that%u2019s pretty much it.

Pot full of spices. It%u2019s gonna be good.

And we can%u2019t forget to add in the water cause tea needs water. Bring the pot to a nice boil on the stove for a few minutes then pull it off the heat.

Set hot tea to steep for like 10 or so minutes.

Strain steeped tea into mugs.

Pssss.. You can re-steep all the tea bits if you want. I have resteeped mine like 3 times!

Add a festive common stick and slice of orange to (squeeze the juice into the tea.

Now take in all the cozy sweet feels, sip, and enjoy.

-C

Makes 3 large cups (plus more if you want to re-steep spices)

• 2 teaspoons cut and sifted Licorice root

• 1/2 teaspoon whole cloves

• 4-5 whole cardamon pods or 1 teaspoon hulled cardamon

• about an inch and a half of fresh ginger

• An orange

• 1-2 whole cinnamon sticks

• 36-40 oz of water

Peel or zest the orange (not the white part,) and slice the ginger into a few thin pieces. Place into a big pot along with all the spices and the water. Place pot on stove and bring to a boil for 2-3 minutes then turn heat off and let tea steep for 10 minutes.

After steeping, strain into cups. Slice orange into segments and serve tea with a squeeze of fresh orange juice. IF you feel fancy, a cinnamon stick too. Feel free to sweeten tea to taste, but I think you will find that it is sweet enough.

Drin kind enjoy.

Note. After you strain the tea, place the spices back into the pot. Add more water. boil and steep again. These spices can be used for a few rounds of tea

What are you doing this weekend? It is suppose to be cold and rainy (if not snowy) and crappy and just not a good weekend to be hanging outside, which makes it the perfect weekend to spend some time inside, SPRING CLEANING! Haha. Doesn’t cleaning get you excited? No, well,%u00a0sorry for you. Me, I like to clean, and I really like to tackle jobs that really really need to be tackled, like cleaning out the fridge. And a crappy weather spring weekend is probably the best time to do it.%u00a0

The refrigerator. My pride and joy of the kitchen. It’s an old harvest gold Fridgaire from like 1970. This is the fridge I spent almost a year hunting down and finally finding on craigslist from a man who was cleaning out his dead mothers house. The fridge that I almost gave up on when I couldn’t find it and almost bought a big stainless steal thing instead.mBut last minute, I found it, like it was %u00a0meant to be. And this fridge has a story all of it’s own. It was a prize won by on of the ladies daughters from a cereal company contest.%u00a0The family kept it for all these years and took such good care or it because of that.%u00a0A well cared for and loved fridge.%u00a0It is a good one with faux wood trim and metal shelving. It keeps my food cold and frozen %u00a0(sometimes frozen when it shouldn’t be. The back top shelve %u00a0in the fridge has a few cold spots the might freeze whatever is there. My solution to that is to not stick things in the cold spots.) and is just as pretty as can be. Some people question it, don’t understand why I didn’t just buy a matching fridge to my stainless steal stove, but you know what, if you don’t like it, well I really don’t care. It makes me happy and I love it.

And to what goes on on the inside. To know me is to know what is inside of my refrigerator. It is always packed. There is and always will %u00a0be carrots, beets, lemon, cabbage, turmeric, greens, greens, and more greens in there. There will always be some hummus of some kind, mustard, bread dough, tofu,%u00a0and lots and lots of any and every veggies you can think of. Plus a bunch of %u00a0jars and container, which I have a bad habit of not placing lids on all the time, full of lentils and beans, rice, and quinoa. %u00a0There is usually a %u00a0baked sweet potato or some squash and more likely the not, tomatoes and plant milk. In the freezer, well that’s getting pretty empty now, but after harvest in the fall, it is packed to the brim with bags of frozen veggies. Now it has a few bags of veggies, frozen bananas and berries,flours, and nuts. But the fridge,%u00a0The fridge is always full. And it an get a little messy….

And now I it’s time to clean it out.%u00a0

I spot clean and straighten it out often. Usually before I pick up farm share I go through it and tidy up, make more space, and pull stuff out that needs to be eaten first. But that is just the surface cleaning. Stuff gets sticky, stuff gets stuck, and especially with veggies, stuff gets dirty.%u00a0%u00a0Spot cleaning has a place but it’s not cutting it anymore. It’s spring and it’s time for a full fledge deep clean.%u00a0

Now I know most people have their own methods for cleaning but here are a few tips and techniques that I have to tackle the beast.

-Prepare. You don’t want to just go at it without a plan and supplies. Get out your cleaning supplies. Grab a recycling can and a compost bucket, and have a big lean surface ready to place stuff on. The vacuum or a broom should be handy too.%u00a0

–Cleaning solutions. It is a fridge so you don’t want to be cleaning it with a bunch of chemicals. What I use is a vinegar solution. 50/50 white vinegar and water and a squirt of dish soup. It cleans, degreases, disinfects, and won’t kill you.%u00a0

–An empty sink or bathtub to wash all the drawers and shelving off.%u00a0

–A few clean containers. Just have them on hand,%u00a0with lids, to place stray things roaming around in there.%u00a0

–Clean from%u00a0%u00a0top to bottom. This avoids crap falling into something you already cleaned.

–Labels. Any containers that are not clear might benefit from a label. And if you tend to leave things in the fridge for a long time, a label for the date of opening is also a good idea.%u00a0

–Inventory. Knowing what is in the fridge is very important, this prevents food waste.

–Too many condiments. I don’t know how many times I have looked in peoples fridges and seen 5 different bottles of ketchup or Italian dressings open. Consolidate. %u00a0And if you don’t like it or don’t use it, get rid of it.

–Wipe it all down. Not just the fridge itself, but all the stuff going back into it. So many times I have stuck the soy sauce in the door and had it leaked all over.%u00a0

–Know your fridge and place accordingly. Most people don’t have super old fridges, but even the new ones have some quirks. Know if there are cold spots or dead zones or places that things get stuck and place food accordingly. Also think about where you are placing food. It don’t make sense to but the milk way in the back if you use it all the time.

–Under and behind. Don’t forget to clean under the fridge and behind the fridge. It will be dusty, maybe a little gross, but it must be done.

–Music. A good playlist is always going to make you better are cleaning.

As for the Use it Up Soup, do just that.%u00a0This is the perfect time to use up what you got. I know that I have way more veggies then the average person, but don’t let that stop you. You could even pull stuff out and fill in missing ingredients form the store if you want. And be creative, %u00a0pickled hot peppers, all the frozen veggies, any wilted greens. Even almost empty bottles of mustard. If you think it sounds good in soup,%u00a0use it up. Add some canned tomatoes and a handful of spice, you are gonna end up with something tasty.

. A clean fridge and soup, how can it get any better?%u00a0

I have been so excited all week to make this star bread.%u00a0About a week ago, while perusing %u00a0King Arthur Flour recipes, I saw this %u00a0amazing star shaped cinnamon bun situation and just knew that I had to make it. I checked the recipe, made a a bunch of tweaks (made it vegan and a little simpler) and set a date with the oven. I figured that Friday was the day because well, this bread is basically a really pretty cinnamon bun and cinnamon buns are great for the weekend and plus the temperature in the world dropped to like super freaking freazing cold and what better way to stay warm then to crank the oven.%u00a0

And make it I did. And honestly. this was one of the most satisfying bread bakes that I have had in a while. It is just so dang pretty and smells so good and was honestly way easier to make then it looks (seriously, really simple). I don’t know if I am ever going to be ale to make cinnamon buns the regular way again. I mean look at this. %u00a0And best to let you know that it feeds a crowd, which is fantastic if you are going to be having any big family/friend gatherings in the next month or two. (or if you are just awesome and want to eat the whole thing to your face). Think about it, if you make this for the people (or yourself) %u00a0how cool and awesome and fancy you are going to seem. It’s really a win win win all around here so I don’t see a reason to not make it. Trust me, and thank me later.%u00a0

The stuff of stars. Flour. salt. yeast and soy milk. A little oil, sugar, mashed sweet potato, earth balance %u00a0and cinnamon.%u00a0

To start, a %u00a0couple of tablespoons sugar and the yeast go into the warm soy milk to kick start that yeast and get mixed together.

Salt, oil, and mashed sweet potato go into the big bowl with the flour.

Then the yeast mixture gets pouted in too. Get ready to mix. And mix.

And after mixing, some kneading. %u00a0A well floured surface with a extra flour on the side is needed here. You are going to want to knead the dough for about 5 minutes, adding a little flour whenever the dough gets to sticky.%u00a0

Once the dough is nice and smooth looking, cover it in oil and stick it into a bowl and cover it %u00a0and let %u00a0rise for about an hour.%u00a0

Make your cinnamon sugar mixture while waiting .%u00a0

Dough doubled in size and dumped onto the well flour counter.%u00a0

Take a dough cutter or knife and divided the dough %u00a0into four equal pieces and roll each piece into ball.

While keeping your surface well floured, roll a dough ball into circle (or as close to a circle as you can get it) about 12 inched wide%u00a0

Place rolled dough onto parchment paper and cover the surface with %u00a0earth balance. Then sprinkle a third of the cinnamon sugar mixture all over that.

Grab another ball of dough and roll it out the same size as the first and place on top the first dough. Repeat the earth balance and sugar mixture and then cover that with another rolled out dough. Earth balance and sugar mixture one more time, then the last dough.

All stacked up.Take the rolling pin and give the whole stacked thing a gentle little roll, just to make sure all layers are stuck together.

The fun part. Grab a small circle cutter or lid (I used small jar lid) and place directly in the middle. Take your dough cutter and score your cuts. Score into quarters then each corner into six pieces. You end up with twenty-four pieces.%u00a0There needs to be a even amount of pieces in order for the design to work so you could do %u00a022-16 pieces. I wouldn’t %u00a0go less.

To get the twist, grab a piece in each hand, give a little tug and twist the pieces towards each other 3 times. Take the ends and kind of tuck and pinch them together. %u00a0Repeat until all the pieces care twisted.%u00a0

%u00a0This is probably the most pretty cinnamon thing I have ever seen.%u00a0

Slide the star on the parchment onto a baking sheet and cover to rise and rest for about half hour or so and get the oven preheated.

After the second rise and right before you stick it into he oven, brush the top with a little plant milk.

And into the hot oven it goes.%u00a0

Aaaaa. So freaking pretty!%u00a0

After a few minutes, if you decided you want a little glaze action, go for it. I made up a super simple one, just a splash of vanilla in powder sugar with a splash of milk.%u00a0

Drizzled and ready for action.%u00a0

makes 12-13 servings%u00a0

For the dough%u00a0

• 2 3/4 -3 cups all purpose flour plus more for kneading.

• 1/4 cup mashed sweet potato *

• 1 1/4 cup warm soy (or any plant) milk plus 1 tablespoon to brush on pre bake

• 1/4 cup neutral oil plus 1 tablespoon to coat dough

• 1 packet or 2 teaspoon yeast

• 2 tablespoons sugar

• 1 teaspoon salt

for filling

• 7 tablespoons sugar

• 2 tablespoon cinnamon

• 3 tablespoons room temperature earth balance

For icing (optional)

• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla

• 1/2 cup powdered sugar

• 2-3 teaspoons plant milk

*I just mashed up a 1/4 cup of a roated sweet potato that I had in the fridge. If you don’t have a roasted potato laying around, you can steam of roast a sweet potato and mash it up for this.%u00a0

Measure milk into a large jar or bowl. Mix in 2 tablespoons sugar and the yeast. Set aside to activate.%u00a0In a large bowl mix together the lesser amount of flour and salt. Add in the sweet potato,%u00a0oil, and the soy yeast mixture. Mix together with a wooden spoon or dough spoon until you can’t. If the dough seems really wet, add in another 1/4 cup of flour. %u00a0Once mixed as well was you can get it, dump the dough onto well floured surface. Start kneading the dough, adding a little flour as you go if needed. Knead for about 5 minutes or until the dough is a nice soft but not to sticky uniform ball. Cover dough with a little oil and place into large clean bowl. Cover with a towel and let dough rise in a warm place for about an hour or until it doubles in size.

Mix the cinnamon and sugar together while waiting.

Once dough has risen, dump it onto a well floured surface and divide into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball then grab the first ball and roll out into a large circle about 12 inches wide. Don’t worry hear if the circle is not perfect, its going to be fine. Place first circle onto piece of parchment paper and cover the surface with 1 tablespoon of earth balance. Sprinkle with a third of the cinnamon sugar mixture. Grab another dough ball and roll out to the same size as the first and place onto of the cinnamon sugared dough. Repeat the earth balance cinnamon sugar and top with another rolled out dough. Once more with the remaining earth balance and cinnamon sugar and top with the last rolled out dough. Take rolling pin and give the whole stacked thing a little roll to make sure it’s all stuck together well.

For the design part. Grab a small circle shaped thing about 2 inches wide (I used a jar lid) and place directly in the center of the dough. Take a dough cutter or sharpe knife and lightly score into quarters then each quarter into 6 pieces You could also cut less pieces, but the main thing you need is to have an even number of pieces for the design to work.%u00a0Once your lines are good, cut the lines by pushing down into the dough and not slicing back and forth. %u00a0Grab a piece in each hand and gently %u00a0twist the pieces towards each other 3 times then pinch the ends together. Repeat until all the pieces are twisted together. Slide the star onto a large baking sheet, cover, and let rest and rise for another 1/2 hour.%u00a0

Preheat oven to 400

When the star is risen again and right before it’s going into the oven, brush the top with a little plant milk. Pop it into the oven and bake for about 20- 25 minutes, or until the top is a nice deep gold brown.

Remove from oven and let cool a little bit. If you want a little icing, mix together the vanilla, powdered sugar, and plant milk. Wait until the star is less the hot and drizzle all over.

And now it’s time to get at it. Eat what you want and store the rest in an air tight container.%u00a0

Farm share started this week (Hooray!!!) and always the first few pick ups of the season are loaded with a good amount of the freshest, most fantastic greens that there ever was. And I couldn’t be happier! (well maybe if I could just take home creates of the stuff)

While I was down at the farm filling and weighing my bags, I overhead a couple talking about how last year they never ate their greens fast enough and how they always went bad by the next week. What! Fresh greens bad in one week.. no way. A bag of greens can last weeks, just as long as you take the time to store them properly. It made me sad to think about the wasted greens and so now I am determined d to make sure that everyone knows the proper way to clean and store greens so no greens go to waste.

What you need

• Your dirty greens
• resealable gallon sized bags or large plastic containers (Bags are great for space saving if you have a tiny fridge like me and can be used over ans over again)
• a big bowl or wash bin
• A piece of clean muslin or other cotton fabric about the size of a paper towel per bag. (can use paper towels, but why not invest in reusable)
• salad spinner
• clean cold water

I know that some people might not have a salad spinner, but here is the thing. You need one!I am sure that there are people out there that have hacked a way to dry greens without one (like my aunt who is a farmer. She uses an old and very clean washing machine. so smart) but really, you should have one.

To clean. First off, the sooner you get them home and cleaned the better. Having damp greens in a bag is not ideal and will lead to yuk. If I bring greens home and don’t have time to clean and spin them right away, I at least stick a piece of muslin into the bag until I can get to them.

My method for cleaning. Fill a big ass bowl up with cold water and, in small batches,%u00a0 gently dunk and agitate the greens.%u00a0 There are two reason I do it like this. One is that I find running greens under running water doesn’t really get them as clean and sometime can even bruise fragile greens and two, I hate water waste and running water over greens wastes a lot(once I am done with the dirty water, I water my plants with it) If you find the water has gotten really dirty fast (which it will do sometimes) dump water and refresh with clean.

Once the greens have had a good bath, to the spinner they go.%u00a0 When adding greens, make sure to not over stuff the spinner and also spin once, dump water out from the bottom, then spin again. Maybe even three times to get the greens dry.

Line a bag (or container) with muslin cloth and fill it with your clean dried greens. The cloth is important for storing, it keeps the moister away from the greens so they don’t get slimmy and gross. And don’t over pack your greens either. If you have a lot, just grab another bag.

so fresh and so clean clean

And that’s it. Close up those bags and now you can store you greens in the fridge and they will last for a week or more, although honestly, with greens looking this good, how could you resist not eating them all right away (the nearly 2 lbs I brought home lasted about 2 days)
