    It is such a joy to watch you and your children. You have inspired me to start canning again. I have heard you call yourself lazy on several occasions. I want you to know that you are by no means the definition of lazy. I wish I had access to farmers like you do up there. Have a blessed day.

    It is such a joy for me to watch you and your little ones! I'll be 79 next month and I live alone now. You sure are a hard working lady, but you have time, take time, for the "little things", the things that matter most. What you're putting by all look good and will definitely come in handy this winter. I wish you all the very best with your new "gift" and the joy a new baby will bring. You all stay safe and take care of each other❤

      It is fun to watch, Herb. I'm 76, always cooked for a big family but now I live alone & it's sometimes hard to be motivated to cook for just me. I still can & some of the grown grandkids come "shop at Mimi Mart". They always bring me a bag of groceries even though I don't really need it. And they always return my jars!

My Heart melted when i watched the little ones climbing in that wood and one of them held a smaller sibling to not fall down. So much care for one another, those children are growing up to being really good humans. The world needs more people Like you and your Family. Good Bless everyone of you 🙏🙏🙏

    I found your TH-cam channel a while back and am so enjoying it. We home schooled our 5 children, with at times one or another going to school. You are encouraging me to get back to homesteading and preserving food like I used to. One of our sons became a quadriplegic almost 10 years ago and we needed to stop everything to care for him. Now we have caregivers to help. So I have time to get back to the things I love, gardening, preserving food, sewing more, etc. I love your gentle spirit and bright and knowledgeable mind. You are a lovely person. My husband and I just returned from a visit to Hawaii to visit our son and his family of 6. On our flight home, my husband said that he saw the woman in front of us was watching you on You Tube 😊 I thought you might get a kick out of hearing that. Blessings to you and your family ❤️

    I know thisvisca year old, but i had to share. My mother in law was the one who taught me about canning and preserving. She passed away this year and i was reminded you talking about the little ones under foot. My vivid memory was when my daughter was 1.5 years old and shecwas with us. Mother in law had her on her hip and was walking out to stir whatever we were canning outside. Probably tomatoes. She believed in hot packing items. Its a memory i cherish.

    Still watching but I have to stop & say - the toddler putting canning rings on his?her? arm (sorry, I’m a new viewer) reminds me of Blueberries for Sal! The front or back illustration, depending on the version of the book shows Sal in the kitchen with her Mom while her mom cans blueberries. I love the old fashioned stove & that picture is my favorite in the book!
    I love how your channel shows your kids! I realized any other TH-camr I watch for homemaking rarely shows kids helping or around which is completely unrealistic for my life. I love how you show your kids as a natural part of the life of the home. ❤️💕

    I agree with the apple/pear combination! I make an apple pear cake that’s delicious and no one ever complains because it is made with whole wheat and barley flour. I not only use chunks of apples and pears but also use applesauce in it i stead of oil so it has a lot of fruity taste. For spices in it I use cinnamon, a bit if nutmeg and Chinese Five Spice powder. Yum!

    That is such a clever start to making chili. As you mentioned, it will be so easy for you or one of your helpful kiddos to simply add whatever extra ingredients sound good at the time. Corn, beans, spices…whatever sounds good. I do realize you want to make sure you have everything ready for your family, but even when it Is hard, always remember to put yourself and the baby first during this time. Your older kids are quite responsible and fully capable of caring for themselves and the little boys. The meals may not be what you envisioned, but it will only be for a short time, and your family will be fine.

    So glad to hear everyone is doing well, and you too. I know being tired is a part of pregnancy and it does whip you out. I pray that the Lord gives you strength and I know HE will. I appreciate you showing meals how to can in the chair I do live alone and I do love to can I'm in my mid-50s and I just love canning and preserving. I've done it since I was a child helping my mother snap peas and beans, later on it came peaches and pears. Now I am just learning how to prepare meals in a jar. My mom and Ladies of my family, didn't do that before, so this is a whole new learning process for me and I so appreciate it. I appreciate you for showing us how you do it and I love your little menu planning of what needs to be done before the baby's born. I try to be as organized and make less than everything that I need to do as well and it sure helps out with the preservation. I appreciate all that you're doing and that you're showing how to preserve food. Thank you so much!!🥰 Good bless you all!!! Until next time. ♥️
