OUR FAMiLY OF 10 DURiNG A BLIZZARD ~ COOKiNG, SHOVELING & CLYDESDALE HORSES

Our family actually loves getting snow storms because we know that we can’t go anywhere and we can just be together hang out relax because we are a very busy family. We’re constantly on the go so any excuse or situation to allow us to spend time together and relax we definitely are up for it.
My husband is such a hard worker and he’s constantly preparing when he knows that we have serious snow coming. He will get all the generators ready to go. Make sure the horses are warm all taken care of and the chickens are also safe and feeders and everything are working properly.
He spent the day trying to help my daughter Hailey get the right generator and get it set up for her and then he came home. Made sure that the tractor and snowblower was ready to go. Filled all the generators up with fuel got all the shovels just make sure we were all ready to go.
I did my part by getting the wood, all stacked for a fire for him to relax by when he came in, I got the blankets in the Coco and coffee already to go and got all my breakfast items ready for our traditional snowstorm breakfast.
As the boys headed out to start, snowblowing shoveling off cars and the front and back porch, I started making breakfast. Normally me and Noah do it together but because him and Izzy were in the barn washing eggs, I decided just to go ahead and take care of it so when they got done, everybody could come in to a nice breakfast with hot coffee and Coco ready to give them. I made a wonderful breakfast with pancakes, homemade sausage, gravy, and biscuits, scrambled eggs, and fresh fruit.
After breakfast, I got everything cleaned up. Izzy went to the barn to check on the horses and then come to find out. She was actually riding horses in training them in a literal, blizzard. We able to watch a little football and then just kind of relaxed. We had all the dogs and cats in and it was just a really nice day of relaxing and playing in the snow and eating breakfast and then a nice warm soup for later. It was just what we needed to collect ourselves and get ready for the busy week ahead.

The long "real life" videos like this are definitely my favorite from you. So COLD but so beautiful outside! Thank you. 💜

[@maryannfelice148]

I do not have children, unfortunately. I just keep thinking you and your husband are amazing. Just keeping the kids in clothes and food, let alone ALL the other expenses for little things like utilities and insurance (lol). I'm glad you are sharing the wisdom of years being a parent. I hope young couples take the time to watch your video. It's quite a commitment to have children. The Lord bless every one of you!

[@kathipham4322]

The danish butter was still a great deal! The meijer butter you usually use is a 16oz package and the danish butter is also a 16oz package, just packaged differently! The danish butter stick is just shorter and thicker in height but it’s still the same amount of butter as the meijer butter! Don’t worry, you paid the same amount for the same amount of butter! :)

[@jenniferhansen3622]

I love these videos. I like the longer ones because I like to put you on while I'm chopping vegetables for dinner, or washing dishes etc. It makes me feel like I have company. ❤

The Danish Creamery butter is a 1lb box just like the Meijer. The sticks are shorter, but thicker. If you look on the stick, each one is still 8T. I used this when making 200+ dozen cookies for Christmas.

[@debbiebeckstead9268]

Yes it’s the same just shaped differently

[@BrianaBudgets]

I was thinking the sticks looked a bit chunky

[@4to1store]

You are a fabulous mom and wife!

I've always made my sausage gravy with flour added over the sausage, then add milk. Learned it from my mom and grandma!

[@itsjustme7487]

I learned that from my aunt who was married to a Southern man.

[@lisa438321]

Same. Brown my meat, add a little oleo (my butter is for baking, oleo for cooking)😂, then add flour over everything, cook 2-3 minutes then add milk. Same for my hamburger gravy

[@Ladyamr]

That's what I do. If sausage is lean won't have much grease.

[@MarcieQueenMarcie]

I absolutely love your videos mama bell!!!! Joshua is so lovable I swear his smile could melt any heart! well, my mom would see everybody like playing around, but they really be shaking their baby and she would freak out. She would tell them shaking baby and something you do not mess with and everybody always thought she was over exaggerating and never paid in mines and I think the video about Joshua just reiterating when our mom tell us something it’s for our own good and the elders in the family wise knowledge surpasses all of ours 😆

[@nancysparks6181]

I always love watching your videos. I was a chef for 17 years before I got sick with colon cancer sadly dealing with it again if I could beat it once I could beat it twice anyway, all the places I ever worked professionally as a chef, we always cooked are bacon in the oven and we would always keep her fat to use it to make onions in any restaurant or casino that I have worked at. There was a little too no trash. We try to use every part of any kind of food in any way possible I do miss it, I wish I could work as a chef again been cooking since I was four now I’m 43 I’m disabled but I cook for my parents I take care of both of them my father has Alzheimer’s and dementia, and my mother needs help walking even though I have a lot of medical issues I try to help as much as I can . I love watching your videos each and everyone of your kids are beautiful on the inside and out. Thank you for bringing us into your family. Stay blessed and hope 2024 brings you great happiness. 🎉❤

I’m 74 and I’ve been cutting my bacon in half since I was married at 18. Back then it was to save money, and husband didn’t notice.

[@PatCrawford-ej4dj]

My Mom used to cook her refrigerator biscuits by melting bacon grease dipping the bisquits on each side before baking. To save a step snd a pan, you could cook your biscuits on the pan from which you removed your bacon

[@Nursing1988]

Absolutely! I do this

[@elainegross7513]

My MIL got the sausage gravy recipe from our local breakfast diner years ago. Brown the sausage, don’t drain, put flour directly on the sausage then add a stick of butter and milk. It is sooo good!!!

[@Jessie_Hope]

I always skip the stick of butter to save calories and fat. The fat from the sausage is enough. If the sausage is too lean and not quite enough fat I will use 1/3 a stick but no more.

[@juliajohnson6022]

It's okay, it hasn't been that long since you lost your Dad. Grief is a long road, but God will carry you. Sadness is a there because of the love we have in our hearts. That does not pass when our loved ones do. My Dad passed on our mutual birthday in 2002 and there are still so many times when I reminise and have tears. It's because we will always love our Dads! Every daughter is Daddy's girl! Hugs to you! 😢😊❤

I never make a roux separately. I always add it to the meat and veggies and then add the liquid. So you’re good! And the thickest it’ll ever get is the thickness it is when it boils. I learned that from Emeril!

Don't worry about the Danish Butter. I believe the pkgs you bought are 16 oz. Each squatty looking are a quarter just like the longer quarters in butter produced here. You did not get cheated, each one is still only one quarter of a pound of butter. Just watch, because that brand does have an 8 oz package that is just that, 2 sticks. Although says it is produced on California family dairy farms, Danish Creamery butter quality is a source of pride and tradition. Valley Fresh Since 1895.
