I am so tempted to get the green house and my man got the Costco card and I have the SAMS club but Costco is my store with ingrediants but Sam’s club is where I get the snacks and fun items

Have y'all tried the ramen style noodles? Also Rao's marina is amazing.

Omg they are soooo goooood! I went to Harris Teeter and got an Udon noodle sauce concentrate and just whip some of that up to put the noodles in and its chefs kiss!! 😋

Yay so glad you found some goodies at Costco. I always buy the Siete tortilla chips, Rao's marina, bacon, fruit & veggies when I go. Let me know how y'all like the juice boxes and strawberry lemonade. I may get them for the kiddos next time if they are decent.

Omg LOOK AT WINSTON!!! Haha how’s he doing? 🐕 The kids LOOOVE the lemonade and the juice boxes so those are winners for us 🙌🏽 I gotta try the Rao’s sauces. I keep seeing them but haven’t grabbed it yet so I’m adding that to my list. Oh! And we grabbed a Cherokee Purple tomato plant at the nursery the other day! I saw it and was like THIS IS THE ONE ANNA MENTIONED…WE NEED TO FIND ROOM! 😂 so I’m excited to try it (if it grows) 🥳🍅

When I was little my mommy put oat bran on ice cream as a topping, it gives a nutty flavor. It’s really good. I like the best vanilla.

@Niamh07421 Ай бұрын
there are bread and cookie recipes on the internet for the oat bran= we add a 1/4 cup to our oatmeal when we make a full pot of oatmeal- great way to sneak in extra fiber

I have never heard of Azure before. I'll have to check it out. I get almost all my stuff from Costco or BJ's. Costco is a 30-40 minute drive from the house depending on traffic. We buy the kids a slice of pizza or hotdog after as a treat for not irritating mama while shopping. Our chocolate lab fell through but I found a local breeder of silver labs. Tuesday I am picking up little 8 week old "Winston" 🐕. I spent $800 this weekend buying new crate, playpen, beds, yeti dog bowls, leashes, harnesses... 😂

Grapes are vines 😂. The chicken & veggie broth looked amazing. Maybe y'all could put cattle fencing just around the individual trees to keep the deer away. Atleast until your able to fence in a larger area. We do live in BFE so there's always critters. Frankencelery is doing amazing. I just sent the hubby to grab 2 buckets of strawberries. We just got 2 buckets on Mother's Day and they are already gone. Where did you buy your spoon tomato seeds from? I'm excited for all the salsa, spaghetti sauce from the tomato haul.

It's looking amazing. I am so impressed by your gardening skills. I am going to start budgeting now for next years garden. I really want tall raised beds to keep animals and grass out. A few years ago my husband tilled 1/2 acre for me to garden and I quit after a few weeks of pulling weeds.
@Pursuit_Of_A_Homestead 2 ай бұрын
Lord, I don’t blame you..the weeds get overwhelming even in a small space but 1/2 an acre would probably overwhelm me too! I was actually just sitting in bed last night looking at tools that might help me weed because we have crab grass and trying to pull that out the ground kills my hands 🥴 I’ve honestly been slacking on weeding in the last few weeks because my hand starts cramping up and I’m like YA KNOW WHAT?! THE WEEDS JUST HAVE TO STAY 😂🫠 Try again, though! There’s some cool tools out there that supposedly make it a little easier. I’ll let you know if I find anything that helps but raised beds would definitely be a little easier to manage!

Cherokee Purple and Brandywine are my favorite tomatoes right now. Honestly I've never met a fresh tomato I didn't like. Most restaurant tomatoes are trash .

Your garden is looking great! Store tomatoes have nothing on fresh garden grown. Everything tastes better when you put blood, sweat and tears into it. My mom has a massive veggie garden so I'm always raiding her yard. We took the kids strawberry picking last week bought 3 buckets. Gave 1 bucket to my mom then my kids and I proceeded to eat 2 big buckets in 3 days. 😅 I had planned on making some strawberry jam. I guess I'll need to go back and get more strawberries. Please let me know if you have a good homemade salsa recipe. Also please record some how to can videos when you start I have been so intimidated by canning. I know it can't be hard but I'm not trying to kill my family.

How did you know I checked your channel yesterday just to see if you had updated anything. Girl you know if your feeling it in your spirit then it's time to go. When I quit to stay home after my decade of commercial lending I didn't know if I was making the right decision. Now I know it was the best thing for my family. I became a better wife, mother and discovered a better me. I was constantly stressed and overwhelmed trying to juggle work, marriage, kids, cooking, cleaning and friendships. I have still been slowly integrating more natural ingredients and household supplies. It is so expensive but once we use up something I replace with the healthier options. I will be here watching ALL my twins videos. ❤
