You guys know that I love to cook. But what you probably don’t know is that while I love to cook, I love to re-purpose even more. So I always make enough food for a small army, assuming that I can whip something together with the leftovers once we are done with it. Because leftovers…
So I’ve been growing our little garden for a few years now with more and more success. I’ve had some setbacks obviously, but I’m learning what I can and cannot grow, not to mention WHERE I can actually grow it. (Corn in the backyard? Meh, not so successful.) One thing that I do struggle with…
As I look forward to having another baby in a few weeks (holy crap FOR REALZ??), I remember what it was like to have the first Kidlet. I was kind of a basket-case to be honest. I had little to no experience with kids and really had little to no experience taking care of anything…
***** So let’s talk about what’s missing in this picture… Yeah, those would be tail feathers, which are currently all over the damn chicken run, making it look like someone got attacked. Also missing from this scenario? EGGS! I guess it’s official then. My chickens are molting. WTF. Don’t get me wrong, I love…

So remember when we went apple picking a few weeks ago? Yeah, we still have a CRAPLOAD of apples to go through. I’ve been making applesauce like a maniac and may actually decide to can some of it if I could keep it around long enough. It’s not looking very good for that though, this…
You all know how this is my absolute FAVORITE time of year. Despite the fact that it was about 100 freakin’ degrees here the past few days (omgsuckstobe29weekspregnant) we managed to sneak out over the weekend and do one of my favorite fall activities. APPLE PICKING! One would think that being in apple country it…
Seriously, is there a mom out there who didn’t think when they first got pregnant that they would be some crazy wonderful mother of the year all the time? I thought that staying at home meant I would have time to clean, sew, cook and nurture the little creature that my husband and I had…
So today is my SITS day! I’m so excited for you all to stop by and say hi! Come on in and take a look around the ol’ homestead, it’s a pretty cool place to hang. We do a lot of cooking around these parts, as well as picture taking, farming fails, farming wins (!!)…
