*this post may contain affiliate links*We all know how popular banana bread is. I mean, surely we’ve all see that reel “dude I got some banana bread at work today dude”. Well I wonder what he would think if he had THIS banana bread. I fermented at 48 hours but 24 is plenty! It adds such…
*this post may contain affiliate links* About 2 years ago I set out to can some triple berry pie filling. It was quite a lot of work to source everything locally. We had to get 30 quarts of strawberries, 25 pints of black raspberries and go pick 15 pounds of blueberries. Of course I didn’t…
*this post may contain affiliate links*I’ve been doing a little bit of a self challenge these past few weeks- of only eating bread products that are with 100% whole grain (aka fresh milled). The flour is completely unsifted, so you take the whole wheat berry and then you grind it into a flour. I have…
*this post may contain affiliate links*I’ve been baking sourdough since 2019. Yes, I am a COVID sourdough baker. But guess what? WE’RE STILL HERE BAKING THAT DOUGH! Maybe just not posting as much since now our lives are back to normal. All of that to say, my dough has flopped many a times. It happens…
*this post contains affiliate links* I just got back from canning with a friend. I love that we can do this, it makes canning such much less annoying and more fun. We were cracking jokes, talking, or quietly working together while the kids played, alllllll day. It was so wonderful! But every year I can…
*this post may contain affiliate links* We’ve all seen the homesteading instagram reels, you know the ones, where they go out to their chickens each morning and grab the eggs for breakfast, stop at their garden for tomatoes, and go milk the cow for the milk to make the cheese. It looks so idyllic. And,…
Well, that’s debatable. And as someone who is very good at seeing both sides, I’m here to debate it with myself for you. It’s a confusing time to live in. Grains are bad by half of the diets out there. And yet grains are ever so important in other cultures (and even within history!). For…
*this post contains affiliate links* About 2 years ago I canned a bunch of triple berry pie filling. I’m finally nearing the end of my stash and I’m planning to can some more this season! I’ve got my strawberries and black raspberries in the freezer. Next up is to pick and freeze some blueberries! And…
*this post may contain affiliate links* I first shared a reel on how to do this a year and a half ago, but I’ve since changed a few of my methods and I thought I’d share an updated process reel on my Instagram. Which made me realize I hadn’t actually written a blog post on…
*this post may contain affiliate links*We just got back from a beautiful family vacation to the smoky mountains. I was about to go grocery shopping, so I was taking inventory of everything and I found 6 perfectly yellow-brown bananas that we had forgotten about, whoopsies. Either way, if you’ve been following along for awhile you’ll…
