We decided to vlog the entire renovation process for our own personal records and for future generations. We are in no way experts in renovating nor do we claim to be professionals.

    Every time you're in the kitchen with that amazing antique golden cabinet, I'm so impressed on how well it fit in that corner and how good it looks and functions. What a wonderful piece, love it. I'm vegetarian and don't really do that much cooking, never really been something that interests me and I live alone. If I were to make something, it would be a large pot or pan, something that would last for days and only need reheating. For the amount of dairy you purchased, the price doesn't seem that high. Dairy is expensive, the highest items after meats. Oh my! Look at the glimpse of that amazing panty. Love the color and bead board. Yes, please a video of the finished pantry and tour of how you have it organized. Won't be able to give our opinion of a curtain vs door till we see the room video.

    • @LewisAcresHomestead
      @LewisAcresHomestead วันที่ผ่านมา

      I know! I still cannot believe it fit so well. I feel like it was made for our kitchen. Yes dairy is so expensive! A full video on the pantry will be coming soon! I am working on finishing up some small things in there and then will be filming the tour.

    To save money we have a lot of meals that have a little meat. Tonight we had beef and broccoli stir fry and I only used one small sirloin steak. We eat a lot of Mexican food and I cook ground beef half and half with lentils of pinto beans.

    I had to laugh when you said you buy cheese at the grocery because you get most of your grains and things at the Amish store. I just got a big cheese haul at the Amish store!!! We really love those Walnut Creek brand cheeses . I got out yesterday and today both but another cold wave is hitting by Sunday so I stocked up.

      @LewisAcresHomestead 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

Also really enjoy a good grocery haul so feel free to keep sharing them. I remember you mentioned in several video you’re from Kentucky and I was lucky to make a trip last February with my mom to the Lexington/Richmond/Berea area and it’s beautiful. We have family ancestry from the Berea and Somerset areas and it was interesting to learn about the history. Hoping once I get done with school to move to the area even if it’s just for a couple years to explore more of it. Thanks for sharing! Hope you guys have a great weekend.

    I would recommend saving for a generator, extra gas cans, and gas. Or something similar that is solar powered to keep your freezer running if power is out. Especially if you have meat in freezers the generator costs less than losing all that meat.

    Dairy products breaks the bank every time I go shopping. We go to Sam's club to get our butter and heavy whipping cream because we need those the most. Cheese, I buy in bulk at my cousin small business store or the Amish store because that's the cheapest i can find it and since it's in bulk, I will divide it up by the pound and freeze it. You should look into buying your OJ in concentrate, in the freezer section. It's just simply OJ. The juice in those jugs have nasty chemicals and cost more. Just a friendly tip. We buy our milk from a friend. She has Jersey cows, sells it 5.00 a gallon. For what we spend on dairy products, we are really considering getting a Jersey cow. We just need to get our barn and pastures ready for cows. As a family of 5, I have managed to cook up one of our whole chickens and turn that into 3-4 meals. I try to do that with all the meat that I take out of thw freezer. Stretching out meals is what I do best. 😂😂😂😂 living off 1 income, we need to do whatever we can to save money.

    • @LewisAcresHomestead
      @LewisAcresHomestead 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yes they do! They are so expensive but it’s one of our biggest expenses. Really?! I did not know that. From what little I know about orange juice I always assumed concentrate was not good. When we buy organic orange juice in the jug we always make sure it says not from concentrate. I definitely need to look into this more now! That is an amazing price for fresh milk! The cheapest we have ever found it is $10 a gallon.

    • @minnamae25
      @minnamae25 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @LewisAcresHomestead some concentrated juices do have added sugars. But the OJ concentrate that I get is just simply OJ with the water taken out. That's why it's thick like syrup. Always important for us to just read the ingredients. I think people charging that much for a gallon of milk are simply greedy. 10.00!!!??? That's insane. We have a local farm that sells milk and dairy products in a small store right there on their farm. We literally just walk in, get what we need, put our names and what we got on a daily form, and pay with cash. They only charge 4.00 a gallon. It's a 20 minute drive for me, so we just get it from my friend that just lives a few miles away. Plus her jersey cows make way better milk anyways. We drink and use so much of it. No way we could afford 10.00 a gallon. Lol.

    Oh…how I really wished I watched my mother more on canning and helped her out…I to love watching your videos on your daily living and renovating your home…Question…the pot your using for canning is that a pressure cooker or a specific pot for canning?…I have a large pressure cooker but want to make sure that’s what you are using or not…THANK YOU for sharing this with us and I always look forward to your next one…I know this was 10 months ago but I’ve watched this video several times already 😊

    I really enjoy your videos as I love vintage homes and homewares. I’ve been umming and arrhing about commenting with feedback as I think content creators should be able to have their videos however they like. In my opinion however I would enjoy the videos more if there were some breaks in the voice over - not so constant and less rushed. As I said this is only my opinion and it may be a cultural difference - I’m Australian and we are renowned for our slow drawl 😉. 🙂🌸

    I thought you did have kids and thought to myself good for them for not blasting them all over the internet. 😊

      If we ever do have kids we definitely plan on keeping them offline but we would let everyone know we had kids. 😊
