    Slow living isn’t a trend for me. It's a lifestyle I have embraced for years; I really learned it from my mom and grandma. We always just took our time to enjoy the beauty of every day. I’m a romantic at heart, with a very practical lifestyle approach “ keep it simple.” I grew up on a farm, which furthered my love of simplicity and back to the basics mindset.

    We moved six months ago to our cozy cottage, and we are in the process of fixing it up. I strive to make our home cozy and inviting no matter what stage of remodeling we are in. Making a home hygge and cozy is just a normal way of life for me, and I can’t imagine it any other way.

    Hello friends, here is the video in the live stream I talked about! We filmed this after Thanksgiving, but the heart of this message is take your leftovers and get creative. I show what I do with leftover turkey, but this can apply to roasted chicken, ham, and leftover roast are a few ideas. I took last nights leftover spinach feta tomato salad there was maybe a cup left put it in a sandwich bag and made several beautiful omelets with leftover salad I could of easily thrown in the garbage. Use it up folks. xoxo

      Ohhh so delicious. I knew you'd make something amazing from them. I make leftover makeovers for most lunches and if there is lots ,I make pie or cottage pie or soups , and one of my favourite things to make is hash occasionally I make leftover chicken pudding from a wartime recipe book but I've never made pot pie casserole. Sounds so easy and delicious. I love your recipe file! My original one was out of my dads home office, its just boring gray plastic. Lol. Your kitchen looks so well appointed, and pretty as well. I see that island bench gets all the use . Were you scraping straight into one of those under bench bins too? Thank you for sharing beautiful 🥰😍🤩

    To say the least, our life styles couldn’t be more different. I am 82, widowed, live in senior housing. I have loved cooking all my life and still love new ideas, cookbooks, ingredients and exploring what’s out there. I love getting bits of good ideas from TH-cam channels like yours.
    About 3 years ago, I started a recipe file. I put in ideas, a note about a new recipe and where to find it. With a recipe book collection, the internet, TH-cam and the like, remembering where to look is difficult. I also include often used recipes and those rarely used but want to make again. I make baking powder biscuits (4 biscuits) maybe twice a year. That recipe is in my box.

    Your daughter watching you tugged at my heart strings. I'd stand on a stool and watch the wizardry baking magic my mom conjured with pastry, pies, cakes and cookies, rolls and bread. She baked in her own kitchen for a local "dinette counter" for a golf country club and later for a lakeside summer cabin resort around the 1960-70 times.
    Those old recipe boxes are seasoned with far more memories than ingredients.❤

    Yep! I still use a recipe box. Like you, I started collecting recipes in my early teens. I also have my Mom’s and mother-in-law’s recipe boxes that I cherish. All of my Mom’s recipes are written by my Dad for my mother could not read or write. I remember reading recipes to her at a very young age. She was a fabulous cook and did not use many recipes. Oh such fond memories! We were never allowed to let food go to waste. Thank you for taking me down memory lane today. Your family is so blessed to have you to show them the way. God bless.

    My Mom and I used to bake Christmas cookies together every year before she died in 2009. I was baking Christmas cookies this year and I was going through her recipe box (that looks just like yours). I found a cookie recipe that I made with her as a young child and it was in her handwriting and smudged with old messes and memories from long ago. It was like visiting with her again as memories came rushing back. If I were you, I’d keep your recipe box just as it is 😉. Some day it will be a wonderful reminder of you for your children and grandchildren 🙏💕

    I made this chicken pot pie casserole tonight, and since there is only 2 of us, I split the batch into two smaller pans and baked one tonight and froze the other for later. When I made the batter it was super thin so I added another cup of flour and it turned out SO GOOD. My friend ate it and loved it so much he went back for seconds. I do freezer cooking for my nieces and nephews who are living on their own now and this is going to be on the list for their next meals from me. Thank you so much, I can’t wait to try more of your ideas.

I use a pressure canner to make my bone broth. I also am an antique dealer, buy out estates, conduct sales - I never let the recipe boxes sell, I buy them. Notebooks of decades of recipes. Real treasures! I get why you are keeping the box! I also write a blog where I share “a week of meals” from 1 pressure canner full of something. I always look forward to your videos.

I’m making a lovely journal from the written recipes from my mother and making copies of them for my children. Thank you for sharing with us.

    I keep recipe cards and printouts in three ring binders now. In clear page protectors. I have some very old handwritten recipes from my grandmother that are too brittle to actually use, so I photocopied them and filled in anything that didn't copy well. I wanted to keep her handwriting on the recipes which is why I didn't just type them up or rewrite them myself. The page protectors keep everything tidy in the binders as well as clean. I'm a messy cook and always spill on them. This way they can easily be wiped off.
    Also...I LOVE your frugal kitchen ways! It's nice to see others use every last scrap, too! Nothing goes to waste. I cringe when I think back to my younger years and perfectly good foodstuffs would get tossed.
    Do you save your carrot peels and celery tops? I keep all the bits like that in a bag in the freezer and toss them in with the carcass when I make broth.
