    Dunno.

    Does it? BBF dates from Jan 14 back to Jan 13. Plus cobwebs on the outside of the bags.

    ZeitMater must have had a flour buying frenzy for some reason, poor old thing.

    WTF do I do with 5.5 bags of the stuff?

    I'm not a baker of cakes.

    I use ordinary flour to thicken gravy.

    Rather too much for the onion gravy this evening.

      Ommm
      Good question.

          Weevils.

          Mmmmmm.

          How can I reuse or recycle out of date flour? | How can I recycle this?

          Into the compost heap it goes.

            In other non floury news, s/he who would be ZeitMog II had a little squeaky friend outside the back door last night.

            Said little friend disappeared, so either ran away, or got eaten.

            There was a nice toad there too.

            Mog left that alone.

              The ex NorPussII had a penchant for amphibians, if only to bring them into the house and then get bored when said amphibian played dead.

              Only thing was we could never find the frog/toad afterwards and it would be discovered shrivelled up somewhere by the cleaner.

                    Crab claws, dover sole and samphire. NOM

                    Will probably make a garlicky mayonnaise to go with the claws and the sole will be treated with butter and brown shrimp.

                      I had a dream about farting loudly in public last night. I expect I was farting loudly.
