July Garden Tour | Cozy Hamburger Soup and Baking Powder Biscuits

[@jenniferl6553]

Regarding repainting your lower cabinets, if you have some of the sage paint left, paint a large piece of cardboard and put that in front of one of the cabinets to see how it looks with the floor. If it doesn't look good, add some dark paint to your sage paint and paint another piece of cardboard. If you get something that you like, take that piece of cardboard to the paint store and find a sample that is close or have them color match for you.

You look amazing with your hair down! So pretty! You seem to be beautiful inside and out! My hubby and I love to watch your channel together.

[@myrnabayne7961]

I love your forest garden too because it reminds me of maternal grandmother's garden!❤

[@GloriaCascio-pp6sm]

Sage green would be beautiful in your kitchen. Maybe a simple leafy or vine print for your curtains. 🌿

[@laurieivanchuk5587]

thank you for planting or for mother nature to seed sunflowers for Ukraine warms my heart

[@kathypadgitt9888]

I’m with you on the white appliances. I dislike stainless. Love your videos.

[@ShellyS2060]

Your hair is amazing! So beautiful

[@MVbailegardens]

Hard to believe it's 5 years since you planted your forest garden....that went quick!

[@janetthompson1372]

Can’t wait for the birth. Your hair is beautiful! We always see you with a hat.

[@kristiweik7777]

You are amazing. I wish I could come be an apprentice.😊

[@kimkerley4218]

Oh my goodness your hair is gorgeous 😊

[@keto4lyfechristy773]

Cauliflower pizza crust is incredible. That's all I see when you show those beautiful heads of Cauliflower. Lol

[@NicoleHoltActress]

I love the way you measure your recipes 😆Makes me feel confident that I, too, can actually make your recipes.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

I'm so glad!

This AZ nurse is loving the sound of the rain. And 🙏🏻 loving your content!

[@valerieedwards2328]

Word from experience, once our pigs got out while a cow was having a calf and they were starting to eat the sack around the calf as it was being born. We got there before they hurt the calf.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

That’s a great point! I don’t think these little guys would do much, but I’ve had a 600lb sow before that I wouldn’t put that past.

[@AZJH8374]

Not to mention, most of us that wear glasses still use cookbooks! Thanks, mom, for your recommendation!!❤❤❤❤❤

[@heathernotzdaniels6350]

I just wrote up our plan for our food forest, since we finally were able to establish some good fencing this year. It felt amazing to be able to get to the planning stage, as I have known for about three years now how I wanted to use my extra space at the bottom of my yard in the city. I will have fruit trees, but my plan is to have a high wood wall (which also gives privacy from our neighbors), where I can espalier them, allowing me a little more open air space. We already have two large rows of elderberry bushes that separate our garden area from this food forest area. I'm going to make the most of my half acre and I can completely understand your vision, as that's where I am right now. I so enjoy seeing the ranch and how much space you have to spread your wings. There is some envy just for the sake of the openness, but at the same time, I'm producing so much food right now, and that feels so amazing, because it is a compact space. I have potential for so much more down the line as well, we just have to stay 30 years old so I have time to get it all done, project by project. 😅. Considering I just turned 50, I better get to it soon! 😊 Have the most lovely day, Chelsea! ❤❤

[@LittleMountainRanch]

I’m so excited for you!

[@sherriekemper1828]

I remember when you planted your forest garden and couldn't imagine it all filled out--but WOW, it is beautiful.

[@MVbailegardens]

I loved your kitchen in sage green. Such a soothing color & brightens or lightens the kitchen.

[@justpatty7328]

Garden days are the best days! God bless!🌻

[@scottewen2522]

Can feed a lot of people with hamburger soup adding lots of vegetables. Those biscuits soak up a lot of flavorful soup. Yum.

[@katherinewhittenberg8919]

Food forest is what its called. Beautiful.

[@shelliecummins5972]

Oh my never seen burdock that big.. beautiful!!

[@annduffy1356]

With as much time as you spend in your kitchen I say pick whatever color makes you happy and inspired! ☺️

[@Factopia776]

The soup you prepared looked absolutely delicious, and I could almost taste the flavors as you lovingly put it together. Sharing your day at Little Mountain Ranch was a pleasure, and I feel like I've spent the day with a dear friend, surrounded by nature's bounty.

[@ceepark114]

You work so hard and do so much, I hope you have some down time for you to relax. Love your videos, especially the parts where you are cooking and preserving food.I have a slow cooker full of Asian pear pulp to make pear butter for the first time, what a labor of love.

[@carolynmiller1774]

Kitchen is green and I love it. Soup looks good.

[@Flowers4Everyone]

We have black appliances and have had for over 20 years, it's just our thing. Much easier on larger families and messy fingers.

[@peggymajerus7531]

I agree with you I love my white appliances I’ve been changing my stainless for white

[@judygalbreath2935]

I used to make hamburger soup all the time. Haven't made in a long time. Now I'm hungry for it 😂.

[@cindyparker9920]

I wish I had a bowl of your soup. It looked delicious! I love your curly hair. I think a sage green will like nice with gray floors. Get some paint swatch’s that you like and show them to us next to the floor. Then you will have way more opinions than you want on which one to pick.

[@kimg5784]

YES- I thought I was the only one in the universe who disliked stainless!

[@danamama6766]

The garden is so lovely this year :-) So enjoy all the tours and visits to it. I made borscht two days ago, you had me craving it. I love hamburger soup and I put a blob of sour cream and chopped dill pickles on top you might enjoy that too. hugs

[@mistycherie]

Sage green is my favorite color, so I am biased but think that would be beautiful to have again. I think green and grey go well together so think the floor color with it would be fine, just imagine the sage green and grey mosses that grow together! Your garden is amazing and dinner looks delicious, I love soup and biscuits.

[@janetsandham7058]

I have had my fridge freezer with alarm for 6 years ,loved it at first , Yes its handy but boy does it get on your nerves too

[@arbancitom2572]

Yay! for white appliances!

[@callingjc]

I'm so excited for your cookbook!

[@HomeEcSewing]

Glad to see someone else bake without measuring devices. When you've made something so many times, it becomes intuitive. 😁Beautiful garden, beautiful tour. Thanks!

[@kimkerley4218]

I love white appliances. It looks clean and fresh. 😊

[@lindakrieger6667]

Your hair is beautiful! Can you list the fridge you got. I’m interested when my fridge finally dies.

[@elliev3593]

I agree 100% about the stainless steel appliances. I have them in my apartment and it’s such a pain to constantly clean. Your garden looks amazing.

[@BeanIrene]

Sage green cabinets with gray window toppers to match the dloors and tie it together.

[@elizabethlink3993]

💚 So many beautiful flowers! How many chamomile plants do you have growing? I suppose Thistle has had her calf by now, as it's been 4 days since this video. Love to see your garden and high tunnel..lovely peppers and tomatoes! Glad you are getting rain and the sky is not smokey! 💚

[@georgebanks8804]

Soup & Biscuits Looks Delicious. I Bet They Are “ Delicious “ !

[@ada5229]

I think you should have some curtains made with the wildflower design from your merch!! It's so pretty and would be a touch of color without being to much

[@LittleMountainRanch]

I love that idea!

[@muddyacrefarms]

I 💯 agree with you!! We are slowly converting to all black appliances. I hate stainless appliances.

[@tomandtinadixon]

I discovered that letting the biscuits sit for about 10 minutes before putting them in the oven makes them even fluffier than usual, and butter just tastes so much better if you have it to use. Oh, and I just cut them into squares with a butter knife since it uses all the dough in one roll-out.

[@corinnestromsten3791]

Ring of fire peppers dehydrate really well. The keep for years

[@kaïla-L-17]

❤ j adore ❤❤ je vous regarde depuis la France 😘

[@denjackson]

I totally agree with you regarding appliances. I'm glad you didn't listen to the salesman. I had all stainless and I transitioned back to white as well. So much easier to keep clean. I'm new here and I'm really enjoying all your content.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

Welcome!

[@nruegner]

When I was a kid I remember my mom having us help out with dinner by making Baking Powder Biscuits. Why haven't I made them as an adult? I think I will give it a whirl and make some. We had a family of 12 kids and 2 parents so we made a lot. Thanks for sharing. I think a forest garden is in my future for net year.

[@catracampolieto8989]

Such a beautiful garden. I'm praying your potatoes, carrots and onions will be a great harvest. Love the zinnias. Have a wonderful day.

[@conniewach7872]

The biscuits looked great.😊

[@jamieevans1387]

I feel the same way about stainless steel. I am covering my fridge with a "skin" (think removable wallpaper). Maybe that can work for your new fridge😊

[@1947Hdwebb]

I just ordered your cook book from Amazon I am so excited can't wait till it comes in. Thank you for doing the cook book. Mary Webb

[@BlackDogDesigns]

Your gardens are always so beautiful and the soup and biscuits look absolutely delicious! Yours has definitely become one of my favorite channels to watch, thank you for sharing.🪴

[@atdepaulis]

I love your garden but I have to say I had not realized how beautiful and curly your hair is!! I get it I wear mine up a lot too but it caught my attention first thing! Becky at acre homestead showed her hair down a couple times and it’s absolutely gorgeous as well! ❤

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Thank you so much. I wish I could wear it down more often but it gets in the way, especially in the ktichen.

[@peaches833]

Looking forward to the cookbook with appropriately sized fonts. 🤓

[@natalieredmond1601]

I think you should paint your kitchen whatever colour makes you happy. However, on camera, the white / lighter colours look better visually against the darker wood and floor. I think a nice putty colour would look great with the white fridge. Would seem light and larger.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

I think that’s a great point - I’ll keep your thought in mind.

[@erinpetersen7824]

A red and white kitchen might be cute, and bring fresh energy into the kitchen.

[@barbarakohler7567]

Look up Lynette Yoder She has a beautiful color on her cabinets!! I like red and white checks for a country kitchen.

[@futurefolk9919]

I think a nice sage green would go lovely with the gray floors. Perhaps consider matching your curtains to your cabinets to pull the color scheme together. A soft white or pale yellow with a leaf or flower pattern that has a similar color to your cabinets would really be pretty. Can't wait to see what you decide. 🙏💞

[@janetsandham7058]

That soup and biscuits look sooo moorish

[@lorimcmichael5846]

Chelsea, speaking of you kitchen refresh- is your work table moveable? Have you ever run it long ways in front of your stove and sink? It seems like it would decrease all the steps you take when working in the kitchen? I watch you walking all over all the time and think you must be exhausted at the end of your day!!!😊 Can’t wait for the cookbook!

[@LittleMountainRanch]

I have had it the other way but it really made it congested when everyone is milling through the kitchen. I’ve considered a little counter on wheels in the middle though.

[@mayshellemyers4675]

I just use one of my canning jar rings to cut my biscuits.

[@annettewiggins1552]

I love your hair. It’s so pretty 🙂

[@scottewen2522]

Home made Hamburger soup and biscuits was a staple growing up. A working man’s meal on a budget. My wife never had it. Chucks of meat is for soups and thinks hamburger is for burgers and casseroles.

[@KAStodgell]

You basement storage is not a mess. Your garden is amazing. I love it. Can’t wait to see how you make sauerkraut. You appreciate all the bounty and colors. Hugs.

[@lh824]

A "rich" (not too dark) navy blue would compliment not only your floor tone but work well with your wall coloration. A navy and while check window treatment would tie in your white appliance and cabinets. Just an idea 🙂 Beautiful, lush garden!

[@missourigirl4101]

Wonderful video tour and supper

[@tammyjocooke-ov1nw]

Buffalo cauliflower is our fav!!!!!!

[@jennydeininger9029]

I saw an episode of Alton Brown’s Good Eats that you can reuse the oxygen absorbers. Keep them inside their packets and dry them on a cookie sheet in the oven at 250°F for a couple of hours.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Really??? Ill have to look into that - I just ruined an entire pouch of them.

[@jennydeininger9029]

@@LittleMountainRanch he was using the food grade silica gel desiccant kind. I don’t have any to test it out but I thought of you when I learned about this.

[@janeweldon8874]

That soup/stew looks delicious! ❤

[@azcvt1411]

Love the oil free pump. Had to use an oil one until it came in and I made a huge mess each time I had to filter the oil. ;)

[@AndreaRuralMN]

For your cabinet color, talk to someone at a paint store or department who knows the undertones of colors. Ask to see a sage that has more of a gray undertone vs yellow/tan. It might just work. P.S. I am not that type of person and would need the help too 😅😅

[@rebeccareimer9915]

You made a comment about leaving your chickens for 24-48 hrs after butchering before packaging up.... do you just leave them in a fridge or what? That is such an interesting and helpful tip! I've had some very tough chickens in the past!

[@LittleMountainRanch]

In an ice bath usually, but sometimes the fridge. They must stay cold.

[@КлубРыболовный]

Рада видеть прежнюю, весёлую Челси!

[@vickiturner9392]

Hello Chelsea. I think a great color for your cupboards would be duck egg blue or green. You could even get fabric in the same color. Love your book looks very smart!! Love to you all from Brisbane Australia ❤️❤️❤️

[@cinbob00]

I got your book it's awesome! Thriftbooks has it ❤

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Thank you so much! If you would be so kind as to leave a review I would really appreciate that.♥️

[@02271953me]

Your gardens are so vibrant and lush - even in a nasty weather day! Beautiful. Green is my fav color snd sage green is right up there. I don't think the sage will clash w your floors/but then I'm partial. Checkered valances would look cozy and yes, farmhouse-y.

[@karenlawson4888]

I agree with you on the white appliances. I hate my SS fridge, stove and dishwasher! Any moisture on my hands result in smears, drips and fingerprints! I’m going back to white when these appliances die. Unless they come out with aqua colored appliances again!

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Lol!! Yes!

[@sueleatherman4817]

Your garden makes me happy just seeing it. It's what I want. Maybe one day I'll get there. The sunflowers are fantastic! Just love it all!

[@robingirven4570]

I have black stainless appliances. I loved them at first but….yeah. Nope. Thanks for the great video. I’ve got carrots in my FD right now, another whole yet!! I’m glad I got the oil pump. So many people complain about issues with the oil less pump. I do a lot of milk. There are only 2 of us. Having it in pints works great. We do not like FD raspberries at all. 😐 Remember- if you FD cabbage, it comes out soggy when you rehydrate. It’s not crunchy. 😕

[@LittleMountainRanch]

What about in baking? That’s what I did them for.

[@Morse-t5z]

Sage green sounds wonderful! I think the floor in grey is a good combo with it. Like the idea of checks at the window as well. Everything is solid colours right now so that would break it up!

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Good call!

[@danadowney6024]

[@nancysadewater964]

Do you break down your chickens into parts, halves, quarters or keep them whole? Thistle looks really good and I don't think you will have to wait much longer. Did you go back and trim the burdocks plants before their seed pods open?

[@toniatalley1977]

Such a beautiful garden and gorgeous biscuits too. Yum.

I’m going back to white appliances too. Stainless is horrible for those who cook a lot.

[@ClutterCamp]

I’m surprised you don’t have a huge island in your kitchen. Possible seating area too.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Next video I’ll show a view from the living room and you can see why I don’t.

[@dhansonranch]

Garden looks wonderful! If you left the rows as you have them, top dressing as you talked about, you could over time mulch the walk ways with wood chips so you don't have to whipper snip them. As for your crop garden...plant sunflowers along the edge facing the house to act as a fence. But for this year you could whipper snip the non planted parts. I wish I was closer because I would be picking all those raspberries to make canned fruit! I have been craving it for a while now and I am having issues with getting my patch started. I am curious if the pigs came in with the cows or if they took off...lol. Supper looked good! Good video !

[@LittleMountainRanch]

I have not heard the term ‘whipper snip’ since I was a kid. Made me smile.

[@dhansonranch]
