- Oh, you guys, I had such a lovely menu picked out for this week, but everything fell apart and nothing went as planned!!! This is what our large family of 9 ate in a week when Momma was hurting and then some children left the home! Some meals were nice and others were just quick and thrown together last minute. There are also low-carb/diabetic friendly meals that help keep my blood sugar in check.

I don't know why anyone would comment on Sarah making supper. What better way to learn life skills than cooking in your mama's kitchen. Sarah has more cooking, baking, and canning skills than 90% of girls her age. And the most important thing is she LOVES it!!! 💜💚💜
Because these children are being raised right and people can’t stand that and they’re jealous!!!
@@Jessie_Hope so true...and the boys take part in the cooking also and I think that's great. These kids are amazing.
I think it's because they refuse to see Jesus' death for our sins as love. I'm afraid most don't know the TRUE meaning of LOVE because they are too worldly 🙏🏼🙏🏼💞
SARAH IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!! I HOPE MY DAUGHTERS GROW UP TO BE TEENAGERS LIKE HER!!! ❤ from Maine
Sarah is the loveliest young lady and an inspiration to other young women her age . We need more young women like Sarah.
These children are getting a wonderful upbringing, respect,working ethics,getting along,helping people,not on a phone or computer all day! Very nice respectful family!
The joy of a big family! Everyone chips in and no one worries about who does more. It’s refreshing to see a farm family working together day by day making everyday count
Do you do kale greens or turnip greens and season it with Turkey leg?
well that sounds delicious.
I love how Sarah said” some people need to keep their mouths shut”” it cracked me up
She got a little riled up there! :)
Love her good job Sarah
Yes, Sarah got a little zesty there! Tell ‘em, Sarah!! ❤
Yes! I got tickled at her too
@@ozarkfamilyhomestead She's a little protective of her Mama as well she should be. Some people are so stupid and think that a child is abused if they're not sitting in their bedroom watching the screen on their phone. I had a lady tell me one time that she felt sorry for me, all the work I had to do at home and in the garden. Funny thing was I CHOSE to do the weeding I was doing in the garden! Lol Nobody asked me to. I simply told her I enjoyed doing the work I did, while my parents were at work themselves, and I planned to raise my kids exactly the same way! That pretty much shut her down.
I am sorry people are so negative about Sarah cooking. I am proud of her. I am 57 years old and my mama taught me to start helping at 5 years old. Keep up the good work
So did my mom and now I feel like a cruel person if I even threaten them to help ... They will fold and put away laundry...
Sarah is a sweetheart, as are all of your kids! I think that Sarah cooking is just awesome. Everything she makes looks delicious!!!
I remember peeling potatoes with my mom at 5 , snapping beans and shelling peas. It was a great memory of just me and Mom and I had 4 sisters
I came back to add that if anyone is commenting negatively on Sarah helping around the house, perhaps they've forgotten that without those valuable life skills they will grow up to eat poorly and order out and not know how to run a household. I wish more families taught their children these valuable skills instead of just letting them play on computers all day... keep your head up! Sarah-you'll be a fabulous grown up!! oxo
I think Sarah is a wonderful daughter. ❤
I dont know why so many people talk bad about big families
If more children were raised this way we wouldn’t have so many entitled adults. I wish I had raised my kids more like this. Your family just blessed my heart and makes me wish there were more families like yours around. Many blessings. And Sarah. You go girl. Anybody can see how much joy and pleasure you get out of cooking and gardening and sewing. You amaze me. I didn’t learn to sew till I was almost 50.
I so agree. These children are learning and using all the useful "lost" skills of which most kids today have absolutely no knowledge. How sad. And although it makes their lives somewhat less "easy" ... it certainly appears that it brings them much satisfaction, joy, self-confidence, flexibility, ... I could go on and on. Just love this family.
Are you on insulin? If so message which type, my insurance sent the wrong brand and idk anyone who uses this brand.
You’re absolutely right!!! I wish that more people still did this. The family unit would go back to being just that. A true family unit. I praise this woman and her teaching her children to not be entitled.
I agree. We need to get back to this in our country
As a mom to several adult children.......we believed in raising our kids the way my mom and dad did.....tons of care love patience compassion understanding......manner and respect....and our now adult children are blessings from God....they are so well grounded....and loving.....most important is we always tell them how much we love them over and over and over and we built a million memories.....we were never a fan of home schooling again a personal choice....growing up going to public school a million memories and friendships I just think we need children to enjoy growing up and having friendships mine are now more then 50 years plus......social skills are so important but again our beliefs.....and yes agreed there are plenty of entitled kids and that's a shame......if you invest the time and effort and realize your a mommy and daddy forever perhaps our world would be a better loving place peace
And this is the entire point of having a pantry stock up, even if it's small. Meals can be made and hungry bellies filled when emergencies arise. Love this family ❤
Thanks for the comment, Brenda! Yes, my stocked pantry is my version of Fast Food. Those cans of ravioli aren't something that we eat on a regular basis, but I sure was thankful to have them available! 😉
I think some people dont realize what actual natural bone broth is supposed to look like. People tend to just buy processed foods from the store. It's so refreshing to see a different way of living, where all meals are cooked at home, instead of fast food.
Sara is amazing and a joy to watch. How anyone could have anything but loads of compliments for her and all your amazing children I cannot imagine. That cake she made looks scrumptious. I'm sorry you had a rough health problem. Hope you are doing much better.
I'm finally doing better, Linda! Thank you so much for the sweet comment! :)
You go Sarah I would be so proud to have you as a daughter. Momma you are raising your kids so right!!!!
Sarah it's nice to see you taking pride in helping your mama and cooking something you obvious enjoyed you go girl
I think you all are absolutely beautiful... Your children are such sweet kids, and it's wonderful to see a family work together in today's society . Very respectful ❤❤❤
If your family is functioning in Love ,you are all so Blessed and peoples rude comments is cuz they are jealous! You are one of the FEW Families who work together and that's what the world needs. When you all added that cheese to your Lasagna soup,that looked very good. Im Diabetic too ,but enjoy watching .....keep em coming..❤
Some people are just jealous of an organized family who cooperate.
Sarah did awesome!!! I would not have known she had a stutter had she not said so. She is a blessing and a natural!
Stutter? What Stutter?
It is refreshing to watch down to earth well raised close family. Keep them coming.
I'm from the UK and I think your channel is wonderful. I cannot get enough of it. We could all take a lesson from using leftovers, and seasonal food. Why the heck do families go to MacDonalds and Fish & Chips shops (a UK speciality fast food restaurant where fish is fried in batter and chip- fat ones!, are deep fried. I just love the way you live. It so reminds me of the way my Grandma cooked, not wasting anything, and involving everyone in the household. In today's world we need to get back to basics and stop waste. I just love your channel, Janice. x
Thank you, Diana! Your kind words really are a blessing to me! 💕
Love that the children pitch in and help when mom's busy or not feeling well. Great job Sarah. Don't apologize for anything you are doing a great job.
Amen
Sarah, you did a great job filming and commentating. It’s wonderful how you help your moma! Don’t worry about miss filming breakfast and lunch. Everyone should know what cornflakes are! So proud of you.
This is the first time I've seen your channel. What an absolute treat. A beautiful, wholesome family with children with fabulous manners.
It was so good to see everyone stepping up to get the family fed while you were unable. All your children are a credit to you, particularly Sarah. What a wonderful young woman she is.
Thank you very much for sharing.
I would really love Sarah's lasagne soup recipe. You all make some awesome meals. 😋
Yeah, I definitely need to make a video on that lasagna soup. It's soooo very good! Please know we all appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment! 💕
I love all the healthy meals you make! I also love that your family eats together. Having children participate with daily family life (cooking & chores) is what makes a family. I am glad to see your family does that! Too many families do not include their children in daily tasks and that is a big mistake. Life skills are just as important as all other subjects!
I agree. How can children appreciate what their parents do for them if everything is done for them. They have nothing to compare it too.
Y’all are an amazing family! I think it’s important that we teach children new age appropriate skills helping them become self sufficient. 💜✝️💜
What a big helper, what a blessing Sarah is. I’m sure she just wants to learn, and be a blessing to her mama and family. I have four littles and look forward to when they want to be a helper.
What a wonderful young lady Sarah is!!! I taught my daughter and son to cook and they both enjoyed making meals for our family. Now they are out on their own and have the skills to make any recipe (and make their own up as well!) they choose. Good work mama!!!❤️❤️❤️
Sarah is a wonderful young lady, you have to be so proud of her. All of you children are so well behaved and very delightful.
As a mother of 3 boys and 1 daughter, I taught them all to cook by age 12 and they pitched in and now as adults. Important Life skills! You are doing a great job!
I’m only half way through the video but I just want to pause and tell you how wonderful and loving your beautiful family is. You guys make my day when I see a video posted. And I’m getting some great meal ideas from you. I know you are so proud of your children. You and your husband have instilled such great skills of life with them. Thank you for sharing your family and life with us.
Aww, thank you so very much for taking the time to leave a kind comment! The fact that you felt compelled to pause in the middle of the video and comment those sweet words makes me smile. 💕
What a lovely daughter !! ❤
Janice, you are doing such a wonder job with the children they are just precious Sarah is a lovely young lady learning how to run a household and cook. She did a beautiful job on her part of the video and you can just hear the joy in her voice talking about “our vegetables” and mama the love just oozes from her when she talks about you.
Oh Theresa, please know that your comment totally made me smile! 💕💕💕💕💕
Sara sure didn't stutter when she told those people off. Bravo!!!
Way to go Sarah! Praying that your Mama feels well soon. ❤
I always comment about Sarah but I wanted to say all your kids are just amazing. Watching Andrew cook and help out also, he is so sweet.
I love how much Sarah enjoys participating in the cooking! What a beautiful family you have.
I just love yall, your raising your kids right❤. They should kick in whenever you are not able. This teaches them great life skills❤ keep up the great work
Way to go Sarah and also Andrew for helping! My kids (7 all adults now) all would help with chores and dinner. My youngest daughter (now 24) was canning on her own at 16 and laying flooring by 17. Kids with skills turn into adults with skills! Feel better mama!!!
AMEN for that thank GOD AMEN 🙏
Thank you for another great video. Sarah is such a joy to watch, she reminds me of my older sister and how she took care of my younger sister and me after our mother passed. Don't worry about mean-spirited people Sarah ( I see you don't), they aren't worth your mind, attention, or feelings. All of your food looks incredible.
So happy to see kids helping out! I’m so thankful my momma taught me to cook, so I could bless my family!
Sarah you did an awesome job filling in! I love seeing your family working together 😊. Blessings to y’all!
Sarah is beautiful!!! Bless her heart for making supper!! Love seeing all of the kids!
Glad that I missed negative comments here. Mean spirited people are desperately unhappy people. Never allow them into your head. Sarah, you are a joy to watch as are all of your family. As for the nasty folks, get some kind of life that teaches you to love yourselves and others. You live by your choices.
We try to block the folks that come here being rude. I don't mind answering questions or acknowledging when someone points out a way different from ours, but some just come here with nefarious intentions. I'd say a good 99% of our comments are encouraging and kind though! :)
Loving your family! I simply love the independence and compassion of your babies. Keep raising those strong kids.❤
Sarah is such a blessing!
I think it’s wonderful your daughter helps with the cooking. More kids these days should help out around the house. ❤😊
You have such a joyful spirit. I enjoy watching your channel. May God continue to bless your family.
Well done everyone for mucking in when they were needed. I hope you are beginning to feel better. The children have been wonderful on the camera behaving immaculately- I am sure you are very pleased with them. It was a huge undertaking to film so many times a day. I think we should call Sarah - sugar plum Sarah - she is such a capable and willing teenager.
What great food ideas and a beautiful family as well. Love your large family, Sarah is wonderful ❤️ I enjoy your vlogs
I loved this video, Ozark Family! Forget any criticisms. Some folks are probably just jealous of all your love. Thanks for sharing! ♥️~Sherry
I had a horrible childhood. I would have been in heaven with Parents family like you have. Your such a Blessing
I just adore you all. I really hope that the people who have subscribed to the channel understand that pressing that thumbs up button REALLY helps the Ozark family channel. It's easy to forget with all the big channels to take a second to press"like" and "subscribe". There's no one who deserves it more than y'all. I wish continued success to you. xoxo
Thank you so very, very much, Julia!!! It does help our channel out and I appreciate your support! 💕
Watching ads helps too
@@nancyfarkas3592 Oh yes, Nancy, that's the biggest way our family can earn money through our TH-cam channel! 💕. Thanks for mentioning that!
Just a quick hello. Have just found your channel and subscribed.
I'm going to be binge watching all your videos tonight.
Can I just say what a lovely, polite family you have.
Its lovely that they are all joining in with the cooking, brilliant life skill.
I can't believe that every single meal you have put on the table is so yummy and wholesome.
I would love to live the way you do. Have only got a few tomatoe plants, 1 cucumber plant( the slugs got the rest,) and my adorable chickens)
Sending love from the UK
@@doodles3075 Hi, so glad to have you here! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a kind comment. Your sweet words made me smile! 😃
My husband and I watched your video together. Both of us noticed how well behaved your family is. You are a sweet family.😊
How adorable is Sarah?? ❤ this one
Praying for healing, Janice 🙏🏻
Bless you, Sarah. What a wonderful daughter you are. ❤
Thank you for sharing your home and family.
As a mom of six grown kids and eight grandchildren I understand living in a large family.
Now I am a retired woman living by myself. What a difference.
Take care
I appreciate your loving heart❤
Quinoa is amazing because it equal amounts of protein and carbohydrates. I think the protein is what keeps our blood sugar from rising. I love it as a rice replacement and also love it cold in a salad.
I personally love the fact that your children help with the cooking/chores!! My grand-daughter is 6 and she alway's wants to help me do things in the kitchen, of course it is limited to what she can do for her age but when I make homemade noodles she helps me roll out the dough lol, she loves it!! I would like the recipe on Sarah's Lasagne and also would love to see how ya'll make your dill pickles!! I love dill pickles lol!!! God Bless you all!!!! 😊💖💖
I love watching your family. I’m single with no kids but feel like I’m a guest when watching your videos, and loved how Sarah stepped in while you were feeling bad.
So nice to see the children step up when mommy isn't well. God bless mommy and prayer for fast healing ❤😊
Oh man, the Spanish squash and lasagne soup look amazing!
Lots of cooking going on! It seems that is your whole day when you care for so many. You're unstoppable!
America needs more families like this the morals and values will last lifetime ❤😊
I think its great that Sara loves to cook and she is learning a trade that will carry her through life. It takes all kinds of people to make the world go around. Maybe those negative people should look in the mirror at themselves and find the good in them instead of the bad.
I love seeing all the family pooling together and helping ❤ I NEED the recipe for the lasagne soup it looks amazing ❤❤
Stacey, I'm sure the family wouldn't complain if we made it again and filmed the process this time! :) I'll write it down on my list for future video ideas.
I’m glad I missed the negative comment. I enjoy your videos. I get recipe inspiration and shopping tips. And in your defense you are a spectacular mother and never forget that. My mom started teaching me how to cook at about 12 and no one died from my cooking 😮. Now I’m in my 60’s still love cooking. It’s a great skill to have.
You make the best meals for your family!!❤
This is a fun video. I'd like to see a tour of your root cellar.
Great life long lessons you are teaching your family. They will use this knowledge their whole lives. I'm going in for surgery today. I'm so happy you posted to keep my mind busy. Thank you 💗🙏
Sarah is a very lovely young woman. She is a delight, and a good cook, too.
Sarah you help encourage your mom to stick to her diet. And also encourage your whole family to eat healthy. Thank you Sarah.
Yes Linda, Sarah is a great encourager and motivator for me and the whole family! :)
These children are so well behaved. Mom you're a treasure and an inspiration to us all.
Love that you set down as a family and eat .That is the way are family has always ate together . And not in front of the TV .
Thanks for the video! I think y’all should do a series “Supper with Sarah” that way we can get all her best recipes ❤ you have a wonderful family. Thank you for sharing.
Your channel showed up on my feed. This is the first video I’ve seen and I have to say that you have such kind, helpful children. Sarah is a true gem!!! To see a young girl her age serving her family with such joy in her heart was truly beautiful. We need more Sarah’s in this world. ❤️
Aww, thank you for taking the time to leave a kind comment! I'm so glad you're here! 💕
I always wanted to help in our kitchen but my mom wouldn't let me. So after I went in the Army and got married I was scared to death of cooking. Fortunately I am a quick study and I love to cook. How great you are teaching your kids the skills they will need in life and won't be terrified of necessary life skills. Great job!
Your kids are the sweetest! Especially the older ones being such great helpers and models to the younger ones. Says a lot about you Momma 👏. Thanks for your wonderful meal ideas! 💛 God bless
JANICE, What type of things does baby girl like? Toy wise? Dolls? Activity (drawing etc)? Mini farm animals? A pretend baby?
Asking because I’d like to send something. I’m a mom of 5 with a 6th on the way, we only have one income, so I can’t buy all of the kiddos gifts all at once, BUT over time I’d like to send you something for ea. I already know what to send the two second youngests. But I wanna start in order.
Thank you 🙏
Wow Sarah ! You make everyone happy and you will in the future too! Good job! ❤😊
My absolute FAVORITE video!!! 🤩
Please do more of these! Pleeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaase!! 🥰🥰🥰
Yay, I'm so glad you liked it! We're filming all of our meals from this past week and hoping to post a new video next week! :)
@@ozarkfamilyhomestead Oh wonderful! Thank you!! I'm SOOOO looking forward to it. 🥳😄😘
Greetings from Germany! ♥♥♥
@@ozarkfamilyhomestead Oh and thank you so much for answering! I know this takes a lot of time. 😘
@@ozarkfamilyhomestead 40:15 I would looooooove to know how you prepare your green beans. 🤔😄😘
I think that Sarah is a blessing for being so helpful and beautiful hearted!!! Your an amazing family!! God bless y’all and nevermind those negative comments….some people like to have the tongue of the devil and we can’t allow them to hurt our hearts!! Love y’all and love the videos!! Thank you so much for sharing.
I love your sweet family and personally feel like you guys are ahead of most of us on what matters.Sarahs sweet and helpful as are the other children.
Lovely family😊 it’s great that your children help you cook and with other chores 😉 My sister and I always helped my mum . I’m new to your channel and love your videos! Sarah and Andrew are really good little chefs , all your children are gorgeous and sooooo happy God bless you all ❤
I love this video. Feel free to make more of your family meals . I love the tablecloth since its the same we have . What a beautiful family you have . God bless
Love seeing kids of any age in the kitchen. I learned to cook in my mom's kitchen and it is my favorite part of my iob as a nanny. Its great bonding time and auch a useful skill for kids to have later in life
Sarah, you are so right! You just keep doing what you love... I love your family and the videos ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What a precious family, reminds me of my family! Please tell Sarah that she's amazing and such an inspiration for girls her age.
I love Sarah's confidence! I wish I'd have had that at her age. Way to go Sarah!!!!! :)
I think Sarah cooking supper is great. I can't imagine, well I can, why anybody would say anything about it. I was cooking dinner for my family alongside my mom and grandma from the time I was about 8 or 9. I like to think it made me a really good cook. At least my family sure appreciates it. You go Sarah! Keep it up!
Having so many family members getting along is wonderful food in itself.
My husband makes breakfast skillet. He dices up zucchini, potatoes, onions, peppers. Fried up then add scrabbled eggs to it. Served with flour tortillas, salsa and shredded cheese. Yummy
New to your channel.. love the dynamic within your family! Great way to teach your children real skills!
Sarah is such a lovely young lady.
What a lovely family. Reminds me of growing up on my grandparents farm. So much of that simple life is lost today. Your kids are very lucky to experience that and learn how to be independent and how all hands are helping hands.
About nasty comments: my grandmother always said that people make rude comments out of ignorance and to consider the source. Sara is a beautiful young woman and so cute with her braces. A few questions for Mom: I am prediabetic; you have made dietary changes. What is your A1C? How long since you began nutritional changes, and has your A1c dropped. Lastly, do you take medication for diabetes? I am currently on Metformin, and my doctor may be upping my dosage. I love your channel! God bless you all.
Sarah is learning to be independent, she is learning all the skills she needs for when she goes out on her own.. Such a wonderful family!
Your children are obviously happy and well adjusted and responsible. They are being raised different from a lot if kids, but they will have skills those other kids won't have. Thet alll seem to enjoy helping around thevhouse
That table just shows the love that has been served on it character marks is what they are
We have what my girls named "refrigerator surprise" meals to use up leftovers. I love that your older kids help make meals, too. Praying your back is better soon. 🙏
Hi, I'm new to your channel 😁 love seeing kids helping in the kitchen 😍
Sarah- I love that you are stepping in and being such a big help to your family! Not only cooking for them, taking care of your momma and doing some of the filming. You mentioned you had a stutter. Have you tried playing music, like classical music, when it gets really bad? To be honest, I think you have a beautiful, smooth, soft speaking voice. How old are you? I bet your siblings look up to you so much. I remember I wanted to be just like my sister who was 10yrs older than me.
Also- you guys should make a recipe book. Janice- I sent you an email. You should do a family cookbook to sell on here and put a section in there for your special diet. I would buy it!!! I would even send some recipes for you guys to try out with your garden veggies that I can no longer have anymore, if you like it then you can put those in your book too. OR have a section called Fan Favorites. Or Fans, Fellowships and Favorites mix in a cup or two of Jesus!
Excellent cooking and caring for the little ones especially picking up the slack when momma wasn’t feeling well. Everything looked great! A big Brava and Bravo❤
It's a joy for me seeing your family and all of them helping each other, that is how should be I think. I have 2 daughters and they help me all the time. Eventually they will have their own home and it is important for them to know how to do things. 👍 I really like your content, keep up the good work!!
My heart absolutely broke listening to your voice. I could tell you were in so much pain. Praying you’re feeling a lot better mama
