Large Family Treat Making Day and EASY Dinner

[@shawncooper9999]

My dad was are homeschool teacher for us nine kids. He has three full time jobs he work for the highway department 7-3 then 3-7 he would homeschool us then a full time fire chief of the town. He would do all the cooking and baking for us kids and my mom has a full time job of being head nurse in the emergency room and ICU nurse. All the girls would take over the cooking and baking when we hit the age of 13 year old. Our grandma would teach all the girls how to cook and bake our family recipes we learn to bake and cook our Mennonite recipes and meals. I homeschool our four kids and I did all the cooking and baking and cleaning. I love cooking and baking for my family.

[@jules1896]

Well, I'm one of those mamas! I homeschool and take care of the home and for some dumb reason, I make meals from scratch every evening. Do I enjoy it? No! That's why I watch videos like this every day, because I had fallen into a rut of making the same 5 or 6 meals. I don't even do my cooking in the morning, I slog through the meal prep at 5 or 6. I want to get better at make ahead meals and free up my evenings. Thank you for pointing this out because I just thought that's how it had to be! Now I just need to get motivated to do bulk cooking earlier in the day. Thanks for all your wisdom and inspiration Amy!! You are a real blessing ❤

[@amymaryon]

Love this

[@ryanm7249]

I am a super last minute person myself.

[@JessieLeigh93]

I was self employed and was homeschooling my kids and kept the house clean and cooked every night. I scheduled everything out. Our school began at 7:30 in the morning and went to 11:30 then they did any seat work that needed to be done. I would have chores for them to do and myself. I would have dinner on the table by 5:30. We had co-ops on Tuesday afternoons, park days on Fridays. It worked for us.

[@Gabrielle-mh2wl]

Wow!

[@amymaryon]

That's awesome!!

[@merediths9667]

Sounds a lot like our schedule and ours works lovely for us also. Schedules are important even when at home ❤️

[@sandiemom8888]

I did that as a single mom for 5 years. Cooking from scratch everyday. Working 2 jobs and going to College for Nursing, no help. I had 5 children at that time. Four were school aged. Only thing 2 were homeschooled, 1 was tutored due to going through brain cancer treatment. One did go to school and the youngest was a toddler, too young for school. I did do all the baking for the week on Sundays a lot as I loved sweets. I ended up with a total of 8 children and continued to cook everyday. Love all your recipies.

[@bettytijerina9769]

Looks like you need one of Jammeril's big mixing bowl for the Puppy Chow. 😄

[@amymaryon]

I've got one lol

[@calebartlett6106]

I am a homeschool mom of four. Two of my kiddos are special needs. I make all three meals a day fresh. My husband works overnights and at times I have had to work outside the home and we just work it out between the two of us if need be. My kids are much older now so they cook from fresh themselves including my special needs kids. It is vital life skill for all of them. It can be done just requires planning.

[@tammygeorge2756]

I work full-time, have one child still home, others are grown but come by occasionally, and 3 senior parents nearby that I sometimes cook and bake for… and I am always thankful when I’m motivated to prep meals ahead. They are more likely to happen that way! I have been following both you and Jessica for at least a couple years; I enjoy and often am inspired by you both 💕

[@amymaryon]

She is amazing

[@stephanieburrell4200]

My grandmother put brown sugar and little pieces of butter on the bottom of the pan, brush the dough with butter, then cinnamon sugar roll the cut and put it the pan. Yummy 😋

[@g.g.chavez-daniel6418]

New season calls for new treats for the young ones, Amy. You are making memories that will last a lifetime!

[@luanntinajero8652]

When I need my dough to rise quicker I put my covered bowl in the microwave and turn the light on high. Works great.

[@amymaryon]

Smart idea

[@christineazmi5111]

I am sooo ready to join you for a cup of coffee and one of those cinnamon rolls! Anyone else feel this way? 😁

[@amymaryon]

I'd love to open up and have that time with you all ❤️

[@amixeblu]

My gran (10 kids post war era, no freezer at that time), did serve fresh food every evening, but they had this little local grocer who wasn't too expensive right at the corner. A lot, a *lot* of potatoes, vegetables and a meat of some kind (mostly cutlets, steak, chicken, things like that).

[@petrab.-c.1470]

Hello Amy , yes , i cook every day fresh , i have 3 Children , i live in Germany , here are normaly , cooking fresh and we bake very much and make Bread also offten but we d'ont have homeschooling , here the children most go to school , it's compulsory education .

[@missdee3]

Good morning Amy, the Lord woke me up early this morning so I read a couple of Psalms and then I was wide awake and so I’m so happy that you can keep me company

[@amymaryon]

Glad to be with you.

[@alicedamsteegt8955]

I would use the bags that you emptied the cereal out of as a bag to put batter in for those doughnuts. Recycle all the bags that food comes in for lots of creative uses!

[@helenflynn8992]

My mum as a child had a house load to shop and cook for she shopped daily as most folks did back in the 70 ( no fridge in our house) till late 70s she prided her self in cooking from scratch every day But when TV dinners came about she on occasion found them so valuable. Loved all the baking ❤️🤗😍

[@rudiannwildgoose-laing4629]

I didnt notice the soften melt setting on my microwave either until you mentioned it. I believe we have the same microwave and stove, and I also found out from you about the bread proof setting and now seeing the pizza, dehydrate and slow cooking settings as well.🤯 I guess I just focus my attention on what I knew was there.🤷🏽‍♀️

[@user-bo1rj2xu2s]

Rudiann - Your post made me laugh!

[@SuperSpoonification]

I think you are Amazing Amy 🤗🙏🌼

[@TracyShead-Stamey]

The buttermilk you buy in the grocery store is not the liquid off butter. It's basically the vinegar milk idea. Thats why it is called cultured. You need make homemade butter if you want true buttermilk.

[@kelliannebirchler1814]

You can also buy a powder buttermilk and just mix water.

[@TracyShead-Stamey]

@@kelliannebirchler1814 I keep that in my fridge also. I also keep just plain powered milk as well.

[@amymaryon]

Oh i didn't know this thank you

Our breakfast generally consist of oatmeal, eggs or frozen waffles/cinnamon raisin toast/bagels. I have 5 kids. I homeschool 6 kids. I own a business but currently working a second job in addition to battling breast cancer.💪🏻 the joy of the Lord is my strength!

[@amymaryon]

Praying for you. Yes the joy is your strength ❤️

[@claudiag.3036]

Everything you made this morning looks delicious! Your family is so blessed to have you. You made it all look so effortless, too. I’ve always wanted to make cinnamon rolls from scratch, but it intimidates me for some reason. 🥴 This gave me a little boost of confidence. 😊 Have a great day, friend!

[@kevinanddeb8829]

I make them using jiffy mix (like Bisquick). Those are so easy and tasty!

[@patriciagreene5842]

Thankful!

[@janelogan5759]

When I make puppy chow, I always spread it out on my cookie/baking sheets and let it dry for a couple hours. This hastens the cooling and hardening of the chocolate. 🥰

I am from Alabama, so buttermilk was a staple growing up. My grandparents would have buttermilk and cornbread for dinner. While you have some, you should make some buttermilk biscuits, southern cornbread, or some buttermilk pancakes.

My favorite hole punching utensil for donuts that way is a big piping tip turned upside down! Perfect hole every time!

Yes, I cook mostly all meals at home. I’m a momma of 6 who homeschools and I cook homemade food almost every day for the health of our family, to help manage finances and for the memories of it because cooking for them brings me joy.

I take an old large seasoning container that is empty and just make a sugar and cinnamon shaker. I find it easier to do this than to dip things in sugar to pour or sprinkle things with sugar/cinnamon.

Lovely video Amy. I love making cinnamon rolls too. Does the American Apple cider have alcohol in?? In the UK cider usually is alcoholic. I don't drink so we have Apple juice here. Thank you.

[@user-bo1rj2xu2s]

No alcohol in our apple cider here in the US. You can buy what's known as HARD apple cider which has fermented into an alcoholic drink. Good luck with you're new P.M. Let's hope things settle down.

I am a full time CFO for our business who works remotely from home while my husband is gone 12 - 16 hours a day being the CEO. I home school five little girls ages 5 - 11 and I also make food from scratch all three meals every single day for our girls then typically a fourth meal for my husband's dinner once he gets home so he gets a hot meal plus he has different dietary requirements than our girls. It is not easy or fun and takes a lot of work and other things suffer...not getting all the garden produce preserved, yard work stays undone, deep cleaning on our home is behind, baskets of clean clothing sits needing fluffed and hung. However, I still have more little kids than big kids. I figure it will get easier the bigger they get.

Buttermilk is milk without the butterfat. It is a low-fat milk product.

[@karenennis6109]

Good morning. When you talked about all of those cups of cereal I thought for sure you're going to go for your big mama bowl as Jamerrill would say. Have you tried the apple cider slushie ice, can't remember which one it is, that you have the machine for I know that in the prior years you thought that that was really good as well. I know that I was purchasing my Sam's order for the month and things that I used to pay $4 for were $5 for last month and $6 this month so I know prices are only going up. I know that it only a dollar, but a dollar is a lot, so prices are still rising I. Did the buttermilk make a difference? I usually use milk & vinegar, when a recipe calls for buttermilk. I hope you have a terrific Tuesday and I will see you tomorrow

[@amymaryon]

Apple cider slushes are so good..we made them in our ice cream machine but it doesn't work anymore:(. I'll have to get another one because they are that good

[@cassaroll-80]

I wonder if your recreation drink is not turning out because they use espresso and not brewed coffee?? They have totally different flavors and strengths. I have a combo espresso and coffee maker by Nespresso and if I don't use the right amount of milk or sugar they are way off and turn out yucky. Just a thought;)
