[@lilchippewa1272]

Hon, please DO NOT call yourself lazy (even as a joke; ie; the apple pie crust) you are obviously far from that and you are amazing… no more verbal curses like that on yourself please… you are amazing ♥️ ps: remember how many people eat premade garbage on a regular basis and then think about how skilled you are in feeding your beautiful family!!

[@justpatty7328]

You are a fantastic mother! I agree on the previous comments here. Thank you for being an inspiration to new families.

Yes, you’re a fantastic momma and your kids are blessed to have you and your husband! 🙌🏼❤️🙌🏼

[@kindnessmatters4068]

As a new wife, homesteader wannabe and not-yet-mother, you are such an inspiration! I’m so impressed by your preservation efforts and your creative combinations.

[@cbass2755]

Congratulations dear! It’s so nice to see a young women who want’s to go back to the tried and true traditional home running or steading! Never stop, please…never stop. Learn to live on one paycheck, meal plan and stay at home with your children. Teaching them, and watch them grow. God Bless you dear. Your Blessings will come to you and your Husband three fold…and forget about other people….✝️♥️

[@stanleypennock2118]

Hey A!ix, Congrats! Tell that new hubby of yours that a guy old enough to be his grandpa said that he got himself a keeper! Homesteading/farming is a rewarding way of life that teaches your children a great work ethic and growing/preserving your own food will keep your family happy and healthy. If you both want to be homesteaders, go for it. Give your family a great life. Bless you both!

[@Imjetta7]

Wife of 40 years, mother of seven, semi-homesteader and she’s an inspiration to me too!

[@momontheball2970]

Congratulations!

[@nicolevangeline]

Alix with an I, I am also a new wife, a homestead wannabe, and not yet a mother! And obviously I also find Jessica / Three Rivers Homestead to be an inspiration! 😄 I am not to a point where I can “officially” start home steading by any stretch of the imagination (my husband is in the US Marines and we will have to move every two or three years for a while longer), but I am trying to do little things that I can within my home to prepare me for it. Like finally learning to can and learning to sew (both of which I still need to begin 😬 lol!), those kinds of things. May God bless you in your efforts as well!

[@whitecreekhomestead6277]

3 home cooked meals a deal from scratch! You’re amazing mother! You’re family is very blessed! Don’t listen to the critics! We’re not chefs. So much more important to keep focused on feeding them healthy foods!! And I love all your Longenberger baskets!!

Hello Mel

[@ericaber9083]

Thank you for being the first person I’ve found to explain how to use soft wheat berries vs hard wheat berries. As a new bread baker I would love if you did a video in the various wheat berries/grains and how they can be used. Also - your presentation is fine, real life is one of the things that make your channel so special.

[@tammygeorge2756]

While I’m not a homesteader, I do buy in bulk when items are on sale or in season. I really enjoy seeing how you utilize your “found” pantry and freezer items and am often inspired. And I truly got a chuckle about the plating comment 😂 As a mom and now Grandma, I agree that yummy and nutritious food that you can serve affordably to your family is what it’s all about! Blessings and prayers for continued healing 🙏

[@pamw5829]

Just discovered your videos. I love them! I won't be cooking big meals like that since it's just me, but they give me some good ideas. When I cook beef heart, I hollow it out and stuff it with stuffing and bake it. I also like beef tongue. Thank you for the inspiration!❤❤❤

Hi Jessica! It made me feel so badly for you when you said someone was criticizing your food presentation. Please don't be discouraged or take that to heart, your meals are so creative and nourishing and yummy! You are feeding your large family with from scratch cooking, with lots of care and love , 3 times a day...with serious food allergies!! Wow!! ♥♥God bless you!

[@grksher]

Our lives couldn’t be more different - my husband and I are recently empty nesters so we have way fewer mouths to feed - but I find so much inspiration from your channel! Your voice is so calm and soothing and you motivate me to clean up our diets and cook more from scratch. I don’t know how you do it all - you certainly have your hands full - but I can appreciate how hard you work and how much you do for your family. That’s one of the things I love about KZbin - is getting a peek into the lives of so many different people - many of whom we would never have the chance to meet in our regular lives! So thanks for sharing your family and your home with us 😊

[@kelleyjerred8032]

[@annewade4228]

I’m sending you a ketchup recipe to try. You can either use fresh tomatoes or just use tomato sauce. This ACTUALLY tastes like ketchup. I found this on a KZbin channel from a large family in Canada, though I don’t recall the channel. From one Buckeye to another I hope you enjoy it. “Heinz” ketchup Remove stems and skins Make puree Simmer stirring periodically Cook down to desired consistency and blend again. Per quart of tomato sauce: 2 tsp salt 1 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp onion powder ¾ cup cane sugar ¾ cup apple cider vinegar Mix into tomato sauce and simmer until gets to your consistency To can: Water bath for 15 minutes for pints/half pints

[@threerivershomestead]

Thank you!

[@denisebozung126]

I don't homestead (live in the city) nor do I feed anyone but myself, but I am impressed with your lifestyle and how you care for your family. I think you do a wonderful job and I truly admire how you have created a life that meets your philosophy and your needs. Blessings to you all.

I, for one, APPRECIATE your non-fancy plating! I hate doing food videos/posts/photos for the very reason that people like to comment on how things "look." I am way more interested in how you are using the foods God has provided you and the creative way you mix and match. I guess maybe it's that mom-of-many lens that knows better than to concentrate on how things "look." I have enjoyed the videos so much! And I have a newfound appreciation for how much time and energy it took you to film these because I decided to do ONE day of meals for my channel, and it took so much work! Thank you for doing these - truly inspiring!

[@cindybennetts4589]

Just want to say how wonderful it is to see all these healthy homemade meals consistently feeding your family. And honestly, someone had the nerve to comment on your plate presentation…?! For Pete’s sake…. ❤️

[@elementalacreshomestead3963]

So much to say but I'm going to keep it polite...Please stop feeling like you have to explain yourself like you're doing something wrong. I come here because I find what you do strong, inspired, loving and down right awesome. I can't believe there are people out there who come here to criticize you, your meals, or whatever other nonsense they feel like spewing forth that day. They should get over themselves or leave. I know I speak for many people when I say I very much enjoy what you do here, I appreciate that you share your family with us and even if you make a meal that's not my cup of tea...well that's just life isn't it? If we were all the same, liked the same things and talked about the same topics and agreed about everything life would be pretty boring. I mean come on!!! Someone doesn't like your food presentation! What the heck is wrong with that person?

The food looks fabulous. I would be honored to eat those meals. The nutrition in the meals is great, the variety is wonderful and that you're cooking for so many mouths, 3 meals a day, within a budget, using what you have is amazing and inspiring to me. I wish I had done meals like what you're doing from the time my kids (now grown with their own families) were little. So much food waste and expense and frustration could have been saved over the years and I, my kids and family would have been healthier. I'm so thankful you're sharing this info. It is truly a blessing. Thank you

[@artkeepsave7206]

I adjusted the challenge for my needs - I don’t have a canned goods storage (once my canners get here, I plan on starting this year) for the challenge, I’m going through all my cabinets to see what needs eaten up - almost done. Once my pressure canner comes around March I’ll try to get portioned out ready to go meals canned. Right now I’m portion testing - I’m freezing the food until then. I got my first load done today. 8 soups and 3 cheeseburger „casseroles“. So exited

[@ginco5203]

I did well this month. I did break my self imposed rules for a couple things. 1. I had a local butcher running a great sale on beef roasts so I couldn't pass up buying a good chunk...but I canned it all for later. (Had to eat 1 pint that didn't seal) I also discovered that my yeast was not good so had to buy some new bulk yeast. Cheaper than buying bread items every week. But over all we did really well...might see how far I can go in Feb. Too

[@WVPreparedMind]

I’m so sorry that someone made a nasty comment about your meal presentation. I watch your videos because I’m so completely impressed with your constant food preservation along with 3 cooked meals per day and homeschooling. So I sure hope you never let other make you feel bad. You are a momma hero in my book. I’m 61 and have a 6 acre farm that I’m doing 95% alone. I’m still working on infrastructure, but I do have chickens and turkeys. I keep my 5 year old grandson, and I promise I couldn’t keep up with you and I’ll bet the commenter doesn’t do one tenth in a day that you do. You are a precious soul! Much WV Love amd Many Prayers! 💙💛🙏

I'm from Preston County, WV, where we have the Buckwheat Festival every year. We have buckwheat cakes more often around here than pancakes, and I definitely prefer them! It was always nice to come in from feeding the animals and eat a few hot buckwheat cakes before school in the mornings growing up.

I feel like a lot of people think all this homeasteading and home schooling is weird. But it just looks so wholesome! I mean.. Kids today, even big kids can barely do anything by them selves (even use knife and fork because all they eat is junk food) and you are teaching valuable skills. I would have loved to grow up like this.

In participating in the challenge this year, I REALLY have gained an appreciation of just how much work it is to document each of the meals during this challenge. Also, shame on whoever criticized your plating ability! I cannot believe how much love and work you pour into all your cooking from scratch! And I think everything looks AMAZING! Don’t let them get you down! I wish my family would learn to enjoy soup as much as your family does. Your soups always look sooo delicious! And last, I just wanted to mention that the angle that you shot the closing of your video really made your green eyes POP, having they green paint in the background. BEAUTIFUL! I have green eyes too and I feel like I don’t see many other people with green eyes anymore. Have a great week.

We have a Country Living mill that we just love! We were fortunate enough to meet and spend time with the creator of the mill many years ago. Jack was an amazing man, a believer in Christ, and just an all around great guy. The mill is hand-powered, but you can also get a motor. I have the motor because of the volume of flour we make. If the power goes out, we can still make flour. Win-win!

I'm single and only have myself to cook for, but you have inspired me with how creative you are with your meals. I'm normally nervous about trying organ meats (opting oftentimes to get organ nutrition via a capsule), but that beef heart looked amazing. The next time I place a bulk beef order, I'm definitely trying it! Also, I just need to comment on how uneventful someone's life has to be to make them want to critique the presentation of your meals.

Please don’t take to heart any disparaging remarks by viewers. I love your videos and look forward to them. I love to see your sweet kiddos enjoying their meals and sitting around the table . The food you make looks very yummy to me and gives me lots of good ideas how to use my inventory . Thanks for all you do.

I grew up eating warm cornbread with warmed milk. So delicious for breakfast.

Every meal looked delicious, don’t worry about presentation, your food looks good the way it is. ❤

Never thought of using the sink screen for the drainer to use in your canning funnel! Genius!

I just had two children to raise and wondered where the time and energy went. lol You're doing a great job! It's fun having a community to join in with for the pantry challenge. I've done it for decades on my own well, with just my family. lol When I have extra fruit I sometimes can the juice.

Everything looks so wonderful! You are so inspiring! I am expecting baby #6 and always trying to figure out how to stretch our food and fill all the bellies and you’ve given me some great ideas. What a blessing you are to your family, as they are to you! 💕

I love your video about what you make to feed your family. I am sorry that some people were not taught to be kind and filter there thoughts before they say or write them. You are not trying to compete with restaurants and professional chefs you are trying to feed your family what you were able to put by and bulk buy. YOU are an Inspiration to those of us trying to feed our family nutritious meals.
