Spooky !!!

there’s no explanation of how to start a sour dough starter. Odd.

Lots of good information!

YES!!! the not having many cucs at one time was a prob for me and u just solved it. Im going to use lemon cucs.ty

I absolutely love my big pottery bread bowls, for making bread, rolls you name it. They are old & lok old fashion. They are so cool. If they could talk, whats stories they could tell. Love them & love your videos. Keep up the good work, very informative.

Leprosy shows up on your skin white😂😂

Here I am again a year after the last time I cooked this bread. I’m starting to just make the bread and not buy anymore . Thank you for this video

Loved this cute little video! Never made bread before, but I’m a young lady and I want to learn how to be a better woman of the house and also a better cook! Thank you for the awesome video 🇺🇸❤️

Ok so how do you make the starter?

I don't know you guys but I always need at least 1 cup more of flour

Mulch for the win! I love how they feed the soil. Another pro for mulch: keeps soil cooler than black soil. I find my black soil fries my new plant starts if I don’t mulch them immediately after planting. Will even use a thin layer of saw dust or pine shavings from our brooder to reflect some light when waiting for seedlings to emerge. I’ve always wanted to try quintessential straw in the strawberry patch but have been too afraid of the weed seeds!

Love your videos do you have any videos on earwigs?

Pin that stringy hair back😊

you have bugs crawling all over your counter ...

I loved this episode; thank you for doing it! (sorry, this comment is a bit long!) One thing that jumped out to me is when you asked about (paraphrasing) ‘what can people do if they’ve lost those connections to the old country’. On my mother’s side, they were predominantly German immigrants so I know a lot about them and a bit of the culture that got passed on. I still have a love of German food (half were from Bavaria, the other half from Hesse) and had some ‘passed down’ dishes at my wedding. A love of the language was also passed to me and I speak a bit of it myself. BUT…I didn’t know a lot about my dad’s side except that his mother was from South Carolina. Long story short they go WAY back to colonial days, all in the Carolinas, so I have a wonderful culture there to discover! I’ve been learning about southern foods, growing and cooking them. It was so sad to see death certificates of my ancestors dying from malnutrition or various diseases, but I felt like I learned a lot about where they came from and what shaped them. And I learned farming is in my blood on that side! So it’s worth not discounting our more recent American heritage and learning about foods typical to the area your ancestors came from. On another note; I married a Swedish man and we’re raising our children in a third country. I’ve learned to cook typically Swedish foods and learned the language, etc. Tomorrow I’ll be doing our own little Midsommar party and the kids are excited! We’ve talked about moving back to the ‘States and even having our farm “Swedish themed” as we love so many bits of the culture and food, but feel America would be a better fit for the homesteading lifestyle we want. And we’ll carry on teaching our kids about our combined heritage. ^_^

If it is labeled for garden, and it hurts your garden, that company should be responsible for your losses.

I have used recipes as more of a springboard for what i can do with what i have since im kind of the 1st generation ingredient house in my family. My husband wants consistency in our meals, but i hate all the food waste that comes with meal planning. After watching this video i definitely have a better idea to make much easier on me with the homecooking. I also rarely cook breakfast and lunch, it usually is leftovers from dinner the night before. My goal is to eliminate food waste, however possible.

I think not watching TV is one the best thing you can do for your family.

What do we do with the egg

Thank you for this video! I’ve also watched it multiple times. Each time I want to make bread I’m like, better turn on that bread lady’s video and here you are with your humor and knowledge ❤

The grocery store might not be very well stocked or affordable in years/decades to come. This is why it’s good to get accustomed to it now. On top of that, have you ever label-read at a grocery store or wondered what they’re feeding the meat/poultry you’re consuming? When you produce it yourself, then you don’t have to wonder.

I like your recipe but I was wondering why if youre drowning in milk couldnt the calf drink more of it?

Doesn't the pressure feature of an instapot also break down the phytic acid and other antinutrients

Made in the USA❤

Wonderful interview❤ What can I do with chicken bumblefoot? First time with chickens.. They are free range except we put them up at night. TYIA.

Lots of great points in this video but it was hard for me to listen to. A successful investor moves to Puerto Rico and feels honored to be alive during this time. There are too many people that fit that description.

I have just made the cucumber and red onion pickle well explained and easy to follow thank you

Thanks for the info

Thank you

I also make my own but I don't add the rosemary because I don't like it in my teeth so you ground it up? thnx

Building a community is help everytime you or your skills are needed. I was accepted in my community after people realized I had skills they wanted to learn or needed. I worked night shift when I 1st arrived. Now do home care in my township & they realized I had more to offer. 😊

I'm in Colorado and had the same slug issue after using straw. I think they are just already in the soil and come up when conditions are right. Either that or it came in on a store plant or the straw.

I have used pie pans of beer (cheapest - I don't drink!) for slugs and snails with Great Success! The pans fill up with them! I learn from your demo vids, such as weedwacking down a cover crop - I did this to clear an area of the lawn to grow food! Saved me a lot of digging, still had to do some but So Much easier! Thank you, Jill. God's best blessing, JJ & Service Dog Ruth

Thanks for sharing this recipe.

Mulch starts at 11:30

I don't have free or cheap access to any of those things in a large enough quantity foe the size of my garden 😢. I really want to mulch though...the weeds are insane in my garden.

I've noticed more tubers (invested in the system) are doing videos stating old fashioned livestyle is more expensive. Lead by manipulating the numbers. I keep track of my expences & know our lifestyle is better.

I have many thoughts and questions. Curious why u r recommending Aquatru instead of Berkey? Does it do a better job, or less cost?? Also I have burned my young cabbage starts by over mulching with fresh green grass clippings. It was 100% my fault for going too close and using way too much, I learned my lesson. But I LOVE. Grass clippings! They r a free resource for me as I have a huge lawn, and I will always use them as my first choice, next is wood chips. Problem with wood chips is I am at the mercy of will I get them when I need them. This was a fun topic to listen to, learn more about ur thoughts and I am going to try the cover crop method for my garden this winter.

I just dealt with the nightmare of seeds in the straw mulch I put down about 2 weeks ago before we went out of town. We came back yesterday and there was soooo much growing in the mulch. I used straw last year and had very little “volunteer” growth. We live in a Ponderosa Pine tree forest so I have an abundance of pine needles. I’ve used them as mulch before but didn’t really like them because of what you mentioned, they are pokey! They don’t call them needles for nothing!! Today I removed as much of the straw as I could. I’m going to buy some bagged mulch from a local nursery this week because that’s pretty much my only option this year since we had all our pine needles taken away early in the spring, as soon as the snow melted! Next year I will be using my free pine needles. I’ll just have to learn to wear gloves!!

How do you water with 6-8” of mulch? I use wheat straw from trusted source. I find in my high altitude central CO garden that I can't get the water to go thru the mulch if it's even an inch deep. The straw is wet and the soil is still dry.

OH! At the 3:40 mark, do Shorts on your roping and horsemanship. There's horse people in your viewership already. Or show a quickie at the end of your videos; and do credits, people thanks, etc. Never worry that you're not good enough yet. Spill girl! SPILL!

I have mulched with so many different things, it’s total chaos. I live in the high desert of New Mexico. Most of the traditional mulches listed aren’t available or are very expensive. So I use what I have- chopped tumbleweeds, snakeweed, saltbush cuttings, etc. I’ve also used dog fur (those two boys shed a lot!) and turkey feathers. Feed bags. Packing paper. If I have plants I need to keep critters away from, I mulch with prickly pear cactus pads or mesquite cuttings. Then add some of that dog fur for the scent. Really, almost anything can be mulch. Get creative and use what is around you. If I can find mulch in the desert, anyone can.

I use over-wintered, Fall mowed leaves. Place that over roll out paper mulch. Then garden thru that. I also use triple shredded wood chips over fabric mulch. I don’t plant thru that. It’s just for walking and my cucumber vines to grow on. The paper mulch, triple shredded wood chips, and leaves all disintegrate and become part of the soil at the end of the season. I can reuse the fabric for maybe 2-3 years. And I’m not stuck with the same hole pattern since I don’t cut and plant into it. I also just use triple shredded wood chips around the bare soil seeded row plants when they get bigger - like onions, leeks, beets, okra, corn. It’s a lot like decomposed wood chips. It’s an expense. But saves me time and effort on weeding and watering. You only need ~2-3 inches. Just enough to hold the roll out mulches down and darken the sunlight below.

The actual podcast (about mulches) starts at the 17 minute)

Love your solo episodes. Love what you’re doing, love learning from you, love the way you think & do things. You’re one of the people I keep in my prayers. You’re busy, busy, so I want to support you with good vibes & prayers. Sleep well at night. You’re doing life right.💛

I used hay for the first time this year to try the Ruth Stout method of growing potatoes. I've got more growth from the weeds than from the potatoes. Bit of a surprise. I've got 2 bales left and am leaving them to decompose a bit before I use them. There are other things I want to try and will probably use them for those projects. I live in an area of LOTS of oak trees. Have tons of leaves. Everywhere. I'm going to purchase one of those leaf shredders and give that a shot this year. Thanks for the info!
