It’s hard work but I bet it’s rewarding… I’m older so couldn’t even try to keep up … much respect 🫡 ❤❤

She got them sweet potato clones 😂❤

THEN YOU ARE NOT A CLEAN PERSON. I WILL NOT EAT AT YOUR HOUSE

Where did you get your wheels for the chicken tractor

Bird feathers (fluff) are an excellent and durable material for filling pillows. Such pillows are expensive nowadays. Heavier, but also the large feathers on the wings can be plucked manually (one by one). They can have uses in works of art, craft. (They can probably also be sold ) A chief feather hat, from the long feathers of a rooster wings? For children's amusement, of course. Turkey feather are better for this. A long feather from the wings can be used to grease a pan with oil. Tthey were used so in the old times.

Everyone did it years ago😂😂❤❤❤❤❤

Before putting them in hot water, pluck the feathers from the body by hand. The small, flexible, clean ones. Leave them in the air then put them in a cloth bag. Over time you will collect enough to fill a pillow, then another pillow... That's what our great-grandmothers did.

I doubt that you are the first generation homesteaders. What did your ancestors do 200 years ago? Or 500 years ago, or 1000 years ago... It's just the return, the call of the earth and the voice of your ancestors.

Where do you find these wheels?

You've just destroyed my idyllic vision of countryside life! Just kidding, I know how it is.

Shhh you give away our secrets.

Most vanilla extracts use bourbon I think

I would love to build something like this, but I like in MI and i'd have to have a separate shelter for winter

Dishes in the sink? DISHES IN THE S I N K! These are omens and portents signifying the arrival of the Apocalypse. Okay, maybe not that bad. But still...

Imagine traveling hundreds of miles by horse drawn wagon and constructing a mud brick dugout with only a pick axe and shovel and a wood axe and hand saw and then being concerned about dirty dishes and clothes.......

Your house will never thank you for how clean it is, but your kids will thank you for being there for them ❤

The simple life!! Nothing better ❤

You get what you can get done each day and don't worry about what you can't get done. I understand.

Admire your choices. I'm sooooo envious.

You got it!

Tell me about those chicken tractor wheels PLEASE

We are the same or similar.. kindred spirits.. homesteading in Southern VA. Keep up the good work 👍

You are my Person!

Awww your little boys and chickens are so cute!

Love your boots

I'm so glad that you spent time with your children you don't want your children to remember the only thing that was important to Mom was how spotless her kitchen was. Build memories skills for their whole life that they can lean back on and use. I am tired of people that spend their whole time trolling through TH-cam and the internet criticizing other people while I know their house isn't perfect... every time someone is critical of another person my dad always said when you point a finger go look in the mirror and see how many points back.

Helps to reduce stress, to not sweat the small stuff and most of life is small stuff.

You def need a good quality vodka.

I heard it said I am raising children not grass. I guess you could say I’m raising children and I don’t live in a glass house so you can’t see my kitchen and you can’t see my room you presume that I keep my house like you keep your house spotless just in case you come over😂😢

Awesome, what's really important. Spotless vs tidy n clean. As someone who cant rn its tough, so i had to change my priorities and its okay. 😊

So basically vanilla infused vodka. I should have tried this ages ago.

The higher the alcohol content the faster and better it turns out, we made vanilla extract in my culinary class last year with a guest teacher and she brought us grade B Tahitian vanilla beans and we made both regular and alcohol free vanilla extract. She used 80proof vodka, the BIG plastic jug with a red label, and we put like 25 vanilla beans in it and we haven’t even used half of it and we made it last year. It’s so good. The alcohol free that we made used glycerin, 10 beans and some glycerin. It worked, but it wasn’t very strong and it took forever to process to be useable in baking but it still worked. Our regular vanilla took 3 months before we could use it and the glycerin one took closer to 6. But yeah, you do get what you pay for, it’s easier to make it yourself and have good stuff but get good quality beans and alcohol.

I thought it takes a year to make

Can you use anything else that’s kid friendly? Like, no alcohol and things like that?..

Except vanilla beans cost 8$ each..and vanilla extract cost 8 bucks.... so no...its not cost efficient AT ALL.

Not when vanilla beans cost a fortune

All I can think of is the vanilla extract meme

May i ask, why alcohol?

I quit drinking 4 years ago- is there anything else you can use besides alcohol (vodka)?

Wow

Thanks

Good for you Girl!❤

Keep the cup under, and use a small brush to brush the bugs in the water. It's easier.

Love this!

No no on 080 M
