Hi Katie. I am originally from Turkiye but I watch you from Austin, TX. I got inspiration on motivation, shopping guides, prepping meals ahead. I learned a lot about the good brands to buy. Abd now I know not everything in stores are good. Labes about nutrition abd ingredients are very important. I have also lived in England for about 4 years. But shopping bulk was not common there. Buying in bulk saves a lot especially if we buy organic. You are doing great. Hope you the best.

[@debimorsette1685]

For your young age, you are one of the best home cooks on KZbin! Such great ideas, tasty food, and so very nutritious. I do applaud you. (Plus you live in the Pacific NW. I was in Portland for over 30 years and retired to Vicksburg, MS.). 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 🥰🥰🥰

I am new to your channel! I am from many states lol I grew up a pastor's kid :) and i'm now married to a preacher and we have two little girls for now... praying for more babies♡♡ We currently are moving back to Indiana from North Caroline :) I was born in PA then we moved to two different places in OH, then KY, MO, and two places in IN... I've been married for almost 7yrs and we have changed living locations 10 times due to what life has dished us - a few situations out of our control. God's been good to us inspite of some reaping my husband has had to live through the past 8yrs and every situation and impossibilty life has sent our way has only grown us! I have no complaints! God means it all for good... He is good and so so seeet to us! We love to travel and we love to make memories through being at home as a family, going on picnics, walks, playing games, and being with church people as often as it's possible. I am a professional photographer and stay at home Momma♡ Love love cooking and baking and we love all things sourdough! 😋 🤍 Our dream is to have a homestead and be self efficient as much as possible one day!

Keep up the great videos, thanks! Ps, I also subscribed 🙂

[@lauraklein6405]

@@RowesRising I started that way as well with store bought bread but eventually everything that had flour in it caused extreme abdominal pain. Hopefully you won’t have that happen. It’s crazy how a common food product can cause so much illness! Take care

[@RowesRising]

Have you heard of stomachs migraines? Someone recently mentioned this condition. When I get the pain I’m doubled over and my abdomen seizes up- I cannot stand and it lasts 20-45 minutes. Then I have general stomach intestinal pain inflammation. It’s scary when it happens. I can only associate it with processed foods or maybe long term effects of Covid. It’s new to me in the past year.

[@lauraklein6405]

@@RowesRising yes! My exact symptoms! Plus bounding heart rate! First time I went to the ER. Finally figured it out when it happened again after eating pasta. Sugary foods causes my heart to beat out of my chest sometimes too. Started happening after taking antibiotics long term for Lyme disease. (Killed my normal intestinal bacteria). It all circles back to the intestines, doesn’t it?

[@kindnessmatters4068]

I have Alpha-gal Syndrome, so I understand food allergies and how tough it can be! I am deathly allergic to all red meats, pork (all mammals), dairy products (milks, butter, cheese etc) gelatin, magnesium searate (found in alot of medications), and collagan (mammal based)... it just happened this past year, from a tick bite, so i am newer to food allergies of this nature. Thankfully my Mom taught us five kids to cook from scratch and we always had a garden growing up! My mom canned and put up lots of food. It's all coming in handy now that i have to be so sure of what i am eating and what in my foods I fix for us because alll/most processed food is not a option anymore. I have a very easy to cook for husband, so all this change as been doable because of that. I'm blessed!!♡ Alpha-gal is a carbohydrate found in all mammals and our bodies do not produce it, so when it enters our bloodstream we react to it. For around 6 months I had off and on anaphylactic reactions, I would choke and my throat and mouth would swell up... I did not know what was going on, so I kept dealing with it with just Benadryl, until I had to go to urgent care and they told me just how serious it was and that I could die so quickly! It got me being more serious about it and so I got tk an allergist and he did blood work and found the issue. I carry Epi-pens with me. I can't cook mammal either because it causes a reaction, from the fumes.

😂 my fiancé teases me for my VA Appalachian accent all the time. You got it! Can-uh-lean-e! If you want another great, easy, tasty, and filling soup-pasta recipe, try pasta e fagioli from America’s Test Kitchen-so yummy. Love your videos, Katie!

Hi Traci!!! What part of VA? We are from Shenandoah Valley near to Staunton.

[@tracimcox]

@@RowesRising I went to JMU! My family is from WV, but I grew up in Loudoun County, just a skip across the WV border. I LOVE Staunton! So many cool things happening with organic farming there (Polyface Farms). ❤

[@tracimcox]

You might already know Michael Pollan, but his book “The Omnivore’s Dilemma” is really cool. He visits VA during his researching. Totally changed the way I think, buy, and eat!

We may settle in WVA. Aaron went to JMU briefly- he played college baseball at EMU as well. My dad lives in Staunton and he’s here now visiting.

[@tracimcox]

@@RowesRising I love EMU-such a pretty campus, and really nice students. I miss the Valley often. Missouri is similar in climate, but the Ozarks aren’t *quite* the Blue Ridge 😏 I was an outdoor adventure guide in Harrisonburg for a few years. WV is beautiful and you can find affordable, farmable land with privacy. Wishing your dad a great visit! 💕

[@MrRKWRIGHT]

Good morning Rowe. What a haul. What's for dinner tonight? 😊😊

[@RowesRising]

Hmmm good question!! We have some elk mince to use…. I’m not sure yet. Do you have any suggestions?

[@MrRKWRIGHT]

@@RowesRising From what I understand, Elk should be cooked to no more than 130-140 degrees Fahrenheit of internal temperature. At 150 degrees the meat starts to dry out because of its lack of fat. The use of a meat thermometer is the best way to determine when the meat's reached the desired degree of doneness. Let me know how it turns out. Did you have this imported? Thanks.

[@RowesRising]

We hunt elk here-it’s our personal supply. I’m stumped on what to cook with it, just out of ideas for minced meat.

[@MrRKWRIGHT]

@@RowesRising Once thing's for certain. Whatever you decide on, I'm sure it's going to be delicious. One good thing about Elk is that it only has a fifth the fat of regular beef, and what's more, its meat is richer in healthy Omega 3, CLA and other "good fats" that aid in weight loss, improved muscle mass and cardiovascular health. That being said, Bon apeitit and y'all have wonderful Sunday. 😉😉

[@essiev6397]

A layer of mince meat with flavorings of your liking (we like onion, garlic, salt, pepper and currypowder with this dish) a layer of slighlty cooked cauliflower and then topped with homemade cheesesauce, in the oven until browned. You can if you want to, add a layer of mashed potatoes. (On the bottom)

[@Lseverett5]

Flip those hash browns!😊 Love it! How is your sweet husband doing?

[@RowesRising]

He’s hanging in. Thank you for asking LSeverette5. He has a big scan this week and we hope they can diagnose what’s going on with his head and ears- amongst other things. His ears are making him feel crazy. They have started his MEB process so it’s a matter of time he’ll be cut free from the military. We take it a day at a time and just try to keep him focused on what he can do. Planning for the unknown future- exciting and daunting😅

I’m sure they have a method to the madness… Bet all the bees prefer organic flowers 🌻 Just some aren’t fortunate to live in a 6 mile organic radius.

[@pamelabagwell4190]

Bees fly up to a 2 mile radius from their hive. Also, pesticide strips are routinely used in hives to prevent varroa mites from killing the bees. So an organic honey would obviously not use pesticides. There are natural alternatives to use!

You should have your husband try tumric pills. The best place I've found that has it with black pepper (helps with absorption) is dollar General. I have arthritis and it works wonders. They are big pills and most people have a hard time swallowing them but I just pop them in my mouth with some water and it's just fine. I take 1 a day and trust me I know when I forget to take it. It's takes about 3 weeks before you feel the affects but I felt it working right away. Hope it helps him.
