Hi Becky, one of the main things I love when we're in the kitchen with you is that you get ALL the ingredients out of the bowls of whatever you're cooking or mixing! I hate food waste, and it drives me crazy when most cooks leave ingredients in the bowls or mixer. Thank you for taking the time to scrape out all those food ingredients on air❤

[@carolynmills513]

Agree!!

[@beekind6267]

Omg! I agree.

[@cindyfrench3953]

Me too!

[@melindagoodermote9116]

Absolutely!

[@lauriecarter7256]

I feel the same way about cooks not cleaning out the bowls

[@rebeccagray2591]

Becky, I told my parents ( 82 & 83yrs old) about you and they just love watching your video’s. I went o their house one Saturday afternoon and they were watching you, my father paused the video turned around to me and said, “How does she do that all? I get exhausted just watching her.” 😂 I think my sister and I have both of them hooked on you and your video’s. Thank you 😊. Becky

[@sandramontalvo4998]

❤ who else enjoyed baby Acre koo koo over his momma’s voice…like hooray daddy is home with us too….just love it❤

[@PirouettingFox]

Agreed!! ❤❤❤

I’m not a perfect housekeeper but I feel like mess causes stress! Even a quick 15 to clean tidy up makes me feel less stress

[@justcallmesuzzie]

Oh, Becky, I am laughing so hard at you climbing up on the washer to get things from behind the washer. I can so relate! I had 8 foster children and you can not imagine all the things that I found behind my washer! 🤣

[@tinatippin5705]

Thank you, Becky, for the crumble equation! Sometimes I just want some, not a whole lot. I can remember equal parts. So precious to hear your little one talking with you. Thanks again.

[@PirouettingFox]

I agree on both accounts! Listening to baby acre talking melted my heart ❤ and I’m really excited to have the crumble ratio

[@user-pj4lh9ly8x]

A tip for cleaning the microwave - pour 1:1 ratio of white vinegar to water into a pyrex liquid measurement 2 cup holder - microwave for 5 minutes, and then let it sit for 5 minutes - the steam does all the hard work for you and you just need to wipe out -- vinegar smell does dissipate.

[@debrajones5305]

I do this too but only use water. Wipe and done!

[@kellygreen8255]

Also, lemon juice instead of vinegar works well and smells clean!I just use a half cup of water and a tablespoon or so of lemon juice. Heat to boil. That’s it. Wipe clean.

[@YasuTaniina]

I do this too. I tried without the vinegar once, i had to scrub, so I always recommend keeping the vinegar in there

[@deannawiederhold3326]

You could also use lemon juice

[@pennyb377]

I do this with just water. I have done so for years and have never had to scrub!

[@denpeel534]

Have you heard of putting a pool noodle between the wall and the washer and dryer? It stops stuff falling down the back and sides and you can cut them to size. You can also cover them in some pretty fabric if you don't like the colours of the noodles. Works a treat.

[@JessicaHubbs]

I have pool noodles in between my W&D!! And in between the counter by them. 😝👍🏼

[@tawneyaldubais]

Great idea!

[@jimwalker76]

My jaw hit the floor when she panned to the beautiful snow. Your homestead is gorgeous, Becky. Lol, Becky on top of the washer with pinchers and grabbing thebfallen laundry 🤣.

[@rockyusa2012]

30:11 the dog 🐕 chilling out on the couch as you vacuum .....hilarious 😂

[@brendastepp5896]

Becky, you don’t have to kill seedlings. Just repot the one you pull out into a bigger cup like Jess does from Roots and Refuge.

[@katepickens4248]

I was going to comment the same! Just let them get a bit bigger and split.

[@jennygeorge6591]

I absolutely love that Josh has his own mop/sweeper!! Floors are beautiful and can't wait to see the room finished! That's a lot of snow and your property is beautiful!!

[@chriskryzak604]

We're empty nesters, so for a lot of my 9×12 cake recipes I split the batter between 2 or 3 pans. One for now and freeze the others. I use foil pans for the spares. It's nice to pull one out when I'm not in the baking mood but I want to have a dessert. Also good when unexpected company comes over or to gift a friend.

[@debrajones5305]

I love how you try to be thoughtful of Josh’s needs, such as a clean office/laundry space or no walnuts.

[@saracampbell7974]

I’ve learned so much while watching your channel over the last few years. My cooking has improved enough that while pondering which rub to use on my pulled pork recipe my husband chimed in with “ask Becky!”. In our home you’ve become the standard for excellence!

[@paulaevans7298]

I agree y'all!

[@raquelmoraga43]

Becky, now that you have a south facing backyard and huge field, consider putting up a sun-drying rack for the laundry. It isn't that common in the States as far as I know, but here in Spain we have a lot of sun hours throughout the year and it's really common. The sun is a much more environmentaly friendly option for drying your cloths and not only does it save you money, but it also leaves a nice refreshing scent on your landry and the sun is a natural bleacher and steriliser. Just turn your dark clothes inside out and you won't have any problems. Appart from those obvious reasons, I think the view from your porch with your garden beds full of greens and some bed sheets moving with the wind in a rack would be incredibly relaxing. I know laundry is so tedious and this option takes more time than the drier, but think about it :)

[@rentedspace7462]

In Australia it is also the normal. It is Rare to have a house or even a unit that does not have one. Even on verandah’s plus also 1-5 to share as a building. Yeah don’t know what I’d do without the good old hills hoist ( that’s the name for them in Australia 🇦🇺) I would say maybe 1/5 ppl in Australia have a dryer versus a clothes line.

[@brandiehammond]

Most southern states here in the United States will do this, as they have more sunlight and hotness that can dry them. Where she’s at in Washington State , it’s the Pacific Northwest and the areas do not get enough sun like Texas, Arizona, New Mexico etc. Washington is known for raining literally every day for days on end and can get pretty flooded. It would be a waste of putting them out and literally half hour later it’s pouring rain.

[@COWELLGIRL]

Ms Becky I laughed and laughed when you were on the dryer digging for items. I have done that before with a broom handle or whatever I could to retrieve things !! So so funny 😂🤣

[@lisasimpson8048]

Lol me too! I have a picture of my 70 year old mom crawling up on top of the dryer with tongs and all that’s sticking out is legs/feet and my daughter pointing at her feet like ‘what’s Mawmaw doin this time?’ So funny what we do to make it better.

[@nonsense289]

you need a reacher

[@lyndacrossley9548]

Hi Becky, you are so inspiring. Sitting in my office, enjoying some downtime watching you clean, plan and share what is happening in your grow room. I'm in Australia and we just planted a whole lot of seeds and some have just begun to sprout.

[@abbybrown638]

I'm digging myself out of a mess that has been snowballing since I gave birth in Oct. 2020 and has lasted a whole move. It feels so good to have the house clean again. Having a little baby is rough at times, you and Josh seem to be doing so well. Good job!

[@alannagilmore8982]

Omg same.. July 2020.. currently pregnant with my second and need a reset badly.. Becky helps me get a few things done ❤

[@lindaeshbach6494]

Becky your energy level always amazes me. I wish I had a 10 th of yours lol.

[@Angela410R]

It's just so peaceful hearing the little man of the house talking in the background he sounds so precious, most enjoyable to listen to. As I have gone back and watched so many of your videos it is a pleasure to watch and I've learned so much thank you for taking the time to teach as we gain much information as I so appreciate it.

[@tonileigh8660]

If you didn't cold stratify your lavender, you probably won't get very good, if any germination. Lavender seeds need that cold to germinate. Put them between 2 damp paper towels in a zip lock bag in the fridge for 2-3 weeks, then plant them in seed trays. Or plant them outside in the fall before the first frost and they will germinate the following winter.

[@DisneyRunner]

Love how you keep it real! Laughed when you climbed on the washer with the tongs to clean behind it ..folks this is real life.. you don't pretend to be perfect with a perfectly clean and tidy home 24/7 we all need this.. you are truly an inspiration..

[@joniwasson2866]

Becky, I know I say this all the time, but I just love and appreciate how always real and truthful you are. As always loved your videos and the house looks amazing!

[@tonileeks-lee6931]

My hubby built a shelf over my washer and dryer and on both sides of it as well...no more lost items. And it gave me extra space to store things. The space between your sink would be a perfect space for a custom thin tall trash drawer...no bin just use a garbage only...hope tips like this helps 😊

[@kimcuret4800]

Oh Becky! When you climbed up on that washer to find lost items and when you talk about rooms taking turns being clean, you make me feel normal!!!! It’s so so good to see I’m not alone in these endeavors! Thank you thank you for keeping it real!!!

[@dianat4443]

I love how the black floor looks. I was shocked at how quickly you got it done. I agree that rugs would help with foot prints on the floor and would look really nice! Also, I love your beautiful dogs! They’re so sweet and also like how you named them!

[@musicmomma39]

I can't believe the difference in your snow compared to your last home. Your little one is so going to enjoy it when he gets older. My mom and I so enjoy your videos and hearing your sweet boy in the background.

[@agathareimer2924]

My husband is a programmer/developer too and oh the convenience of him being able to work anywhere is so awesome!

[@roxannegray2796]

I try to open the dishwasher door when it's done so it helps heat the kitchen and adds some moisture.

[@Shelvi09]

How smart is it using the pressurized container! I am so going to do that, and say thank you Becky every time I use it!

[@justplaintara9028]

My best success with lavender seeds has been after freezing them for 1 week. This simulates Winter for the seeds and then they're ready to move on to Spring behaviors. Crazy, but it works!

[@jacquelinerWQ]

Hello! Queen of summer savoury here! The 1st couple of sprouts can appear a bit leggy but it should correct itself… it doesn’t like being transplanted so growing it in something that allows for minimal root disturbance is best. And yes… keep it off the heat mat! It will be a wonderfully prolific herb plant until just beyond 1st frost! Enjoy this wonderful herb ❤️

[@uberurbana4894]

Going back and watching old videos....I have a hydrovac and I just love it. One thing I did was choose the corded model bc it seems like cordless models run out of charge for me, and I don't want to have to wait to recharge something to complete the task. I always vacuum and then dust mop prior to using bc we have a long-haired rescue cat who runs the show at our house. Sounds a little counterintuitive, but I think that the less I have to clean out of the vac at the end, the better. I want my hydrovac spotless when I go to use it again. I have to say, I am one of those OCD people that wash the dishes prior to putting them into the dishwasher. For anyone who is thinking of buying a hydrovac, I think it is a very wise investment.

[@lnhoughify]

I love how you frame it as though your appliances are "working for you" and how you empty the dishwasher and clean the sink "for you" almost as a kindness to yourself. I'm going to try thinking about things like this tomorrow when I do the same.

[@jenniferransier1983]

Hey Becky, I have a suggestion garden wise. I have gardened for over 30 years and I live in Salem, Oregon. I have always had good luck doing raised beds made from cinder blocks and every time I started new beds I followed my grandpa's method: planting tarp, small pebbles, river bottom, steer manure and top soil. I would always have pumpkins, corn and tomatoes trying to invade our neighbors yard.

[@DeconstructionBarbie91]

I never measure stuff like vanilla, cinnamon etc and I always say “we’re going to measure with our heart” when we are making something. The other day my youngest(6) said, are we measuring with our heart? When I saw you “measure your vanilla with your heart” I thought of that and all the baking you and your son will eventually be doing together ❤

[@debrasuarez4885]

Hello Becky, your home is very pretty. The scene of the snow coming down was so calming and beautiful. I know your doing the landscaping now and it’s coming out very nice. Please keep that forest look as well. It is a lovely home and peaceful looking. May you and your family have many many happy years there. Enjoy and God bless.

[@b2tippie]

My German Shepherd ATE about $40 of my Johnny's seeds. I lost ALL my corn and pumpkin so I am also trying out Dollar Tree seeds! I bought lots of veg and flowers. We'll see what happens?!

[@virginiaquintal]

I absolutely love her channel. She gives us a little bit of inspiration when we need it.

[@jamieford4594]

And permission to give ourselves grace when things don’t go as planned.

[@virginiaquintal]

I totally agree with you !she awesome!

[@kacha5447]

Omg hope you see this lol I started watching your channel for the great garden knowledge and turned my sister onto your channel as well, she loves your food prep. We've watched you for over 2 years now and love watching you grow and learning with you! Thank you for all your tips, tricks and advise. I can't wait until baby is ready for food, I am very much like you spending most of my time in the kitchen! And as much as I enjoy all the processes, organization that goes into cooking from scratch; nothing brings me more joy then cooking for my family. I have a 2.5yo and 9mo old and it is truly the best prepping food specifically for them. (Ice trays are a moms best friend!) Love the content and hope you and yours are well!

[@lisakallunki5042]

I saved seeds from three of my favorite tomato varieties last year. I tried sprouting them, and I am excited to say that they have all germinated and are growing. This is my first time starting 46:17 seeds so fingers crossed that it turns out well.

[@kasper1944]

Becky - be careful not to overload your washer and dryer. The clothes need a little room to move around with the water in the washer and can throw your agitator out of line. Too many clothes in the dryer takes longer. Plus when you overload the machines, they don’t last as long.

[@valeriedaniels3804]

Why is it so satisfying to see your house get clean while I’m at work and not able to do any of mine?

[@annsmith7207]

Here is a suggestion -- consider purchasing mesh bags -- on Amazon -- they can be used for laundry -- you will never "loose" another sock -- from a pair -- washer and dryer -- I use a mesh bag per person so everyone has their own and can fold their own socks. Additionally, I use mesh bags for delicates so they are in the washer but will not be ruined. Mesh bags have many uses for laundry -- I also use them for travel to just place soiled laundry in them and then just place them in the washing machine when I get home. Enjoy!

[@Rachel_1983]

I use big ones for my sheets so other items don't get twisted up in them in the wash.

[@bethsands7665]

You go girl !! You really have it all together , even with having a baby to care for. Yay for no sock-monster ! My work-place barks orders left and right which is stressful, but you and your awesome skills of cleaning , condensing and putting things away where they belong is commendable, heroic and awesome. You deserve to have a robo-mop...., nothing cheap. Good job!!!!!

[@micaylamitchell6510]

I just came to say, I love you so much, you are my favourite person to watch on YT, I will choose one of your old videos over a new videos from other creators anyday! You are so inspiring! Love from Micayla in South Africa🇿🇦

[@susanelliott1970]

Looks like you are really overloading your washer. They say only put laundry in lightly never stuffing the clothes/ towels only to the top of the wholes.

Today is the day that my house needs some tough love. I am watching this video to procrastinate a little longer I can't stand to do anything until my house is spotless. You are clean shaming me and motivating me at the same time. Thanks Becky!

[@brendayoungblood9484]

I'm the exact opposite from you in that I like to get harder jobs out of the way first. Different strokes and all that jazz.

[@jessicacarrasco7282]

I love watching your videos dreaming about having my own homestead one day. The thing I actually love the most about your videos is how you talk about doing the mundane things. You always say you "get the pleasure" to cook, or mop the floors, or have your house clean! That mindset is so wonderful. I have really started to use that when I am doing something I don't particularly like to do, but now I get the pleasure of washing dishes or doing my family's laundry!

[@sarahslovely08]

Becky you are so real, I love it. And I absolutely love your videos. I’m a stay at home mom with a family and a heart to take care of what I have. Your videos are encouraging.

[@carmenn5609]

I have a blast with you, I'm here cracking up on my own, when you kept pulling laundry pieces from the sides of washer and you were determined to get that last piece behind washer 🤣

It's always so exciting when seedling starts! You have to grow twice as much with a little one ,boy they can eat!!!

[@ajquimby121]

The part about painting for you and Josh really resonated with me because we always seem to get the house ready for someone else coming over and that’s counter intuitive to enjoying your home. Thank you so much for this encouragement!

[@afdraftsrmandy3176]

Becky, I bought a "water hog" mat/rug from LL Bean probably a decade ago. It grabs moisture and dirt and is still going strong! Really helpful in keeping floors clean. Love your channel!

[@nawaaldavids7019]

So proud of your progress...very inspiring ❤

[@chriskryzak604]

I totally agree with you about the little things that you don't do until you're ready to sell your house. We've had several houses over the last 35+years, and my husband's motto was "when the trim finally goes up; it's time to sell " 😅 Also be careful about contaminated compost or mulch. We ordered yards of mulch one year for all around the house and it was contaminated and a funky mold started growing on the house siding.

[@lizpollock6534]

Oh my goodness - you motivated me to go and do laundry! 😁 Have a good day Becky!

[@lorimcmichael5846]

Hey Becky- put a rug in front of your door- inside and out- it will help. It will also protect your new big rug👍

[@stephanietaylor8615]

I feel you on the dirt backyard and dirty floors! The previous owners of our house tore up the backyard to redo it, and then ended up having to sell before they got much done, and the drought was so bad last year, we just never put in grass. We're really hoping to put in grass this year. Luckily my dog has short fur, and so she doesn't bring in a whole lot of dirt, except for the first few weeks after the snow melts and the mud is so sticky.

[@mrspickle8285]

Hi Becky, Jess from Roots & Refuge, did a huge thing on soil remediation after she got infected compost last year. She found her 'canary in the coalmine' was to plant beans. they grow quick and easily show any signs of problems. Thanks for another great vlog

[@marysmith4240]

I painted a floor with wall paint and topped with 4 coats of Varathane Floor Finish. My teen so. Lived on that floor for 5 years and then it was a guest room for a few more years. Not. One. Scratch! It was slick when wearing socks, though! 🤣

Hi Becky! I need tips Please!!! one problem I'm having with freezer meals is my food getting freezer burnt, even after just a week In the freezer.. so frustrating 😫 what are your tips for preventing this? I've used ziploc bags and tinfoil pans from dollar store and cover the food with parchment paper before putting the lid on. I'm so sad to have to throw out things because there covered in frost and taste bad..

[@beckyallen3771]

Love your kitchen, especially your open shelves! Again girl, my head is spinning watching you! You are expecting way too much of your self! A weekly cleaning service is invaluable when you have a new baby! 😅With my first 2 kids, I wore myself out trying to keep my house clean and in order. Later I realized the house can wait, my kids are only this age once. Love my animals in the house, but they were confined in mud room until they were wiped and became dry. I raised my family on 25 acres in rain country. My kids had outside overalls and mud boots that they took off in the mud room. Love your energy and fantastic knowledge😸 Im learning a lot of fun things from you even though I am a seasoned homemaker over twice your age! I’m wanting to try the no-kneed crock-pot bread. I like to use organic non-GMO products, and I grind my grains. I try to eat very little meat. I hope I can give you a few tips. LAUNDRY😳 🙃🌻 wow! Less is better in washer and dryer. Also, do not fill washer more than 3/4 full. Sort all laundry; by weight, color, temperature; such as bath towels only, kitchen rags and towels only, jeans together, delicates together, baby clothes only. In my day I used mostly cloth diapers #50. I soaked and double washed and extra rinsed 2-3x week. I washed 2-3 loads of laundry per day! Baby clothes need to be washed daily, other wise you will have ruined spit -up milk stains. It is nothing to put a load in a couple of times a day! I just purchased a beautiful indoor out door washable area rug…thought that wold be great for your sun room you were moping. Also get good washable door runners to wipe paws and feet …..open type dog fence with gate by that door to corral dogs until they dry feet and coat, 🐾😸🐈‍⬛would save you so much cleaning.

I loved when you broke out the tongs, because I have to use tongs to get clothing out of my top load washer. The tub is so deep that I can’t reach the items in the bottom. Short girl problems! 😂 Also, I wonder if building a shelf that stretches across the top backs of your washer and dryer would keep items from falling behind there. It would also be a place to keep detergent sheets, cute decor, etc.

Was laughing when you were loading the washing machine, I thought you were definitely distracted as even though it's a large machine I kept on saying stop that's enough 😂

Hi Becky, I usually don't write comments, because I watch a lot of UTube. However I can't help myself. I use 162 trays from greenhouse solutions, because they last forever very hard plastic! When you realise how many plants you have to start...WOW! I up pot some of my plants when they get their second set of true leaves. I've had my first 162 for more than 5 years. It was very worth the investment! Love watching you!

You are so funny. I laughed so hard when you climbed on the washer to get clothes from behind with tongs. That was a good idea, I use a wooden yard stick. Thank you for another good video. 😅😊

Your glass drawer fronts on your island...years ago they used to put dried beans peas corn in them. And that was for looks only. So most people then took photos of the dried items and just put the picture in the glass area then it gave them more storage room in the cubby and still made it looks decorated

Did you cold stratefy your lavender before planting it? Lavender won't sprout unless it has a couple weeks of cold first. Put the seeds on a damp paper towel in a Ziploc in the fridge for a couple weeks first to ensure germination.

I've been watching your video's where you cook once (breakfast for example) and then eat it all week. Doesn't it get "funky" by the end of the week? THE FDA web site says cooked egg dishes are only safe to eat for 3 to 4 days in the fridge....Same for baked oatmeal.....it is only safe for 3 to 4 eays in the fridge. You might think about it.

I’m like you Becky I don’t mind washing drying but I dislike putting it all away. You’ve done amazing today all your chores are finished and you have a lovely clean home. Well done Becky
