We're getting some rain, which I am super grateful for, although it did just about put a stop to our garden tour. Thankfully, it stopped long enough for us to enjoy a walk through the garden and a check on Thistle to see how close she was to calving. While it was raining, I made some delicious hamburger soup and baking powder biscuits. I hope you enjoy coming along with me!

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.

[@MVbailegardens]

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

[@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. 🌿

[@sherriekemper1828]

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

[@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.

[@kathypadgitt9888]

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

[@MVbailegardens]

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

[@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!

[@katherinewhittenberg8919]

Food forest is what its called. Beautiful.

[@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.

[@ShellyS2060]

Your hair is amazing! So beautiful

[@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

[@keto4lyfechristy773]

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

[@AZJH8374]

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

[@shelliecummins5972]

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

[@AZJH8374]

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

[@BeanIrene]

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

[@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 😊

[@scottewen2522]

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

[@corinnestromsten3791]

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

[@arbancitom2572]

Yay! for white appliances!

[@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.

[@tomdixon7264]

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.

[@peggymajerus7531]

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

[@justpatty7328]

Garden days are the best days! God bless!🌻

[@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!

[@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.

[@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.

[@judygalbreath2935]

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

[@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

[@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.

[@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.

[@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.

[@janetsandham7058]

That soup and biscuits look sooo moorish

[@thehomeeclady]

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!

[@conniewach7872]

The biscuits looked great.😊

[@kimkerley4218]

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

[@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.

[@annduffy1356]

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

[@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😊

[@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!

[@missourigirl4101]

Wonderful video tour and supper

[@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. ;)

[@georgebanks8804]

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

[@callingjc]

I'm so excited for your cookbook!

[@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.

[@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. 🙏💞

[@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.

[@muddyacrefarms]

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

[@kimg5784]

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

[@mayshellemyers4675]

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

[@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.

[@barbarakohler7567]

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

[@jacquelinerWQ]

Can’t wait to see the next episode! ❤

[@janeweldon8874]

That soup/stew looks delicious! ❤

[@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! 💚

[@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

[@laurieivanchuk5587]

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

[@rhondasmith4272]

❤ from Ontario! Love your videos…..amazing garden!

[@annettewiggins1552]

I love your hair. It’s so pretty 🙂

[@jmuth890]

Beautiful garden and farm. Love all the animals.

[@angievictory2332]

Love your forest garden ❤ actually all your garden areas!!

[@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.

[@lindakrieger6667]

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

[@toniatalley1977]

Such a beautiful garden and gorgeous biscuits too. Yum.

[@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 😅😅

[@sgrvtl7183]

Your garden tour after the rain was delightful! beautiful coloring of the veggies! Thank You for sharing~!

[@elizaC3024]

I freeze dried my basil stem as well and ground them, wow the flavor.

[@carolwhisenhunt7504]

Great video. Soup looks so good. Your garden is breath taking.

[@kaybusby7507]

I love your garden wishing I could have one as nice as yours. The soup and biscuits look delicious. Thank you for sharing.

[@crystalh1402]

Yay ❤ perfect for my lunch break

[@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!

[@tst1200]

Luv grass paths myself! Can always easily run a reel mower thru them if need to shorten/moe

[@tammyjocooke-ov1nw]

Buffalo cauliflower is our fav!!!!!!

[@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!

[@mikalasimpson7789]

Cotswold green goes brilliant with grey slate.

[@kellyharbaugh9391]

Those biscuits look perfect to me perfectly brown.

[@peaches833]

Looking forward to the cookbook with appropriately sized fonts. 🤓

[@kimkerley4218]

Awe I love my biscuits that brown yum. It gives more of a flavor 😊

[@michelleh5727]

I agree I have a white fridge .. still have a black stove too..lol

[@carolynmiller1774]

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

[@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.

[@kellyharbaugh9391]

Yes, I do like that. I’m in that camp also

[@erinpetersen7824]

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

[@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.

[@carlakohlwes-vp7lt]

Sage green, my favorite color, will go with grey floors.

[@kathywebster9167]

You and your garden is beautiful.. I am anxious to watch and learn from you how to make sourkrate and broth

[@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.♥️

[@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!

[@LytonaKirtz]

Chelsea, herbs are perennial for you. I’m in 4B so I should be able to grow the ones you do. Your garden is so nice. I so enjoy your videos.

[@LytonaKirtz]

I left out a word. What herbs are perennial for you?

[@camicri4263]

🤗❤️🤗 Blessings!

[@northernkarma9296]

I have had a hankerin' for a hamburger type soup. I think I will make this tomorrow if the weathers not too warm. This year is a good year for Brassicas ey? My broccoli and kale are beautiful also, I don't want to pick them!! LOL Glad you are getting rain instead of smoke, things have calmed down here in Ontario as well. Peace and love!!

[@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.

[@janlovesiowa6142]

love your garden!!! just for fun next year try growing some popcorn.

[@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.

[@inspiredclips8245]

It was you! My first video was about your food storage area last year! I have been wondering if it was. Now back to the video lol.
