An idea for next month's t-shirt: you could add "We bless you until next time." in small print on the upper center back of the shirt. This way it would give the message as you depart those grocery store convos. :) P.S. I really love the tomato design!!
That's exactly how my dad would cook his fried egg every morning, and he used a little cast iron pan, too. I miss him. Thanks for the memory. And the sweet potato hash recipe! Love from Maine.
'miah hopping was my happiest moment of the day so far. Thanks, 'miah. I have chronic depression and the joy you brought was more than you could imagine.
If those are a storage pair… Peel them and boil them in a simple syrup and canned them… They are so lovely on top of a white cake in the winter time. How lovely! Lucky girl in a kitchen like that!
Thank you for the step by step. My daughter is in the 6th grade and wants to have "cooking class". We have always homeschooled so this is totally a new thing for her. She has always made things in the kitchen, these cooking videos are going to take it to an entirely new level. Starting with cast iron care!!!!
Jess...I'm sure you remember the saying "God made dirt, and dirt don't hurt" That's what I thought of when you said the new shirt design was "Real food comes dirty" Love it!!
I'm so glad that you are now enjoying making cooking content.... I remember the days when you would cringe talking about making a recipe / cooking video...... It really shows that you are enjoying another way to teach your audience about gardening
Jess, my mom and I have started watching your videos this year and what an absolute blessing it has been to us! It’s been a tough year but we know God’s covering us. Your devotional videos have helped my mom especially when we have had some particularly tough moments. It was like the Lord led her right to them. I just wanted to share what a wonderful impact you have on this world and what a light you shine! Thank you for sharing with us and also for this delicious recipe. God bless!
The hash looks yummy!!! Gonna have to give it a try. Really like both shirts. The one about Tomatoes are better than supper... I was watching that video when Ben said that, so I'll always think of him when I see that 👕. The other one...I like it too, because it's cute & it's true!!! 😆 I BLESS Y'ALL! ❤🙏🌹
Best way ever to do a breakfast egg for a working mum. I love fried eggs but not the grease. Thanks Jess, my favourite teacher in all the things. You bless us all xx
No, THANK YOU for hanging out with ME today!!! Lol! I bought a few sweet potatoes to try this out... I know it’s not the same but it’ll have to do until I can grow my own🙌🏼
Why is it everytime I watch one of your blogs you make me laugh, and just so you know I need all the laughs I can get these days. Love you and your family and you make this grandma smile.
I grew up with old pear trees and we used to basically do everything with them that you do apples. Canned pear sauce and dried pear slices are my favorite.
Love the Tomato 🍅 Shirt ! I ordered 1 !! Thats why I garden,cause 1 of 2 memories I have of my dad while he was alive setting on the front porch eating tomatoes. 💖🍅🍅🍅 💖 Even if I did not garden I would still grow tomatoes !! I really love your guys channel .Love to see more and more younger peps gardening warms my heart truly. Great job guys. Pam > 🍅🥕🍆🥒🍉🥚🥬🍅
I think we all need a day with Jess, and family, at their farm, with a good cup of coffee, work, chit chat, and tea at the end. If I could somehow work my way into even part of a day with y’all it’d be beautiful. To just enjoy your presence, even if it’s in the middle of harvest and canning, heck, I’ll help!
Some advice on the pears- I have a 60 year old pear tree... HUGE harvest every year. Pick them hard, they will ripen in 2 days. Process them before they get too soft, it's a short window! I find that the pears have so much sugar in them! I just cook them down like an apple sauce and don't need to add anything to them. Also, Charles Dowding has a great video on pruning fruit trees.
I'm making this recipe tonight for my husband. Thank you so much for sharing it! We hope you all are staying warm in the crazy storm. God Bless you and your sweet family
My family has had those same kind of pears all my life and i am 70 yrs old now.These are great fo making pear preserves ! We love them! My momma only made pear preserves with them.Love those preserves. We cut off just thinner chunks and cook them down with sugar, the old fashion way, like making jam. No sure jell or any additives , just sugar and pear chunks, when done they are a tad firm, but tender, and they turn a little light reddish color most of the time and syrup is a little thick. Can use the syrup from the preserves on pancakes! Pear Preserves is my favorite!
I have 4 of those old fashioned preserving pear trees on our farm. They are great in cobblers, pies, and preserves as well. A friend picked some and made pear cake. It was delicious! Enjoy!
I would love if you did a video on how you clean/season your cast iron pans. I'm pretty new to using cast iron and feel like I'm not doing a good job seasoning it. Or maybe I am cleaning it wrong? Thanks for all your great videos!
Even here in the North we plant onions a second time. 1st planting sustains through summer and early fall the second planting is to sustain through winter. Since most of the garden is finished by the time the second planting goes in you would be able to plant even more.
Yum. Fantastic! Will have to try this. We have a version - chopped sweet potatoes, onion, basil, broccoli - put in cast iron pan. Drizzel coconut oil / butter and seasonings. Bake 350 degree 1 hour. Crispy on the bottom Can serve with yogurt dressing (plain, chopped chives) We will often have eggs and bacon too :)
Please give us some of your rain. It has been the worst summer and monsoon season here in Arizona. My garden has suffered greatly. We had over 50 days of 110 degree weather. Would love to see some rain 🌧 here! Love and Blessings from AZ!🌵🏜🌻😊💙
I'm not a drinker, but pears canned in Bourbon or Rum are a delicious old victorian tradition and they're awesome! Lovely special dessert in the Winter! Some of my pears always go that way every year.
My Nan used to make bottled pears, it's the one thing I can remember her canning, canning isn't as huge in the UK as it is in the USA. It's essentially just pears preserved in a syrup, you poach them briefly in the syrup to warm them through but not cook them and then pack them into jars and can.
I thought I was the only one that cooked my fried eggs that way. Been doing it that way for about 45 years. Makes perfect fried eggs and no grease. Going to have to make me some sweet potato hash to go with the eggs.
I have been a tomato hater for all my life and in a family of tomato haters but I’m about to start my own garden when we move in a month and I just HAD to get the tomatoes are better than dinner shirt because it’s SO PRETYY!
I betcha those pears would be good diced up and cooked with your sweet potatoes.. either with the apples or in place of them, for a change up.. That sweet potato hash looks delicious to me.. I’m sad that my family doesn’t like a lot of the things I do... I won’t cook it for myself and I MISS a lot of those old-time southern dishes I enjoyed as a kid...
That would be so much easier than trying to flip the egg and breaking the yolk. I am going to have to try that and your Sweet potato hash! Thanks for sharing!
OMGoodness Jess!!.. 23 yrs ago i craved Home grown tomatoes while preg w my 1st. HAD TO BE HOMEGROWN... Because they had to have that "Tastes like dirt" element. In my mind that marries the 2 designs. Im sure you could come up with a 10 reasons Tomatoes are better than :**** list for a shirt too. ;) love you guys. TY for always blessing...and God Bless you and yours! Lourin - Florida
I love making sweet potato hash! Mine has lots of fresh garden greens, onions, garlic with fresh herbs such as basil, oregano, thyme. And I top it all off with a couple of rummy yolk eggs. Delicious! Oh, I couldn't resist the t-shirts. I will hopefully be getting my new one soon. And you're right,they are excellent conversation starters. God bless y'all!
Hash looks delicious.I make my eggs the same way. My son's brother-in-law started raising chickens , Long Island, New York, suburbs, and I was gifted a dozen Easter colored eggs today. Very excited to cook some tomorrow.
Thank you so much for showing us your recipe for sweet potato hash but the best part was you showing me how you cook your eggs, like you I want the white done but I love the yolk to be running.
Make pear preserves with a twist. Add your favorite jello to the cooking preserves for a wonderful delight! I have cherry, watermelon, lime, orange, grape and others, the different colors look so neat. Hope u enjoy this! Add the jello just before u jar, stir it good then jar.
If the pear is gritty textured the use them in soups like squash and pear soup. Because it would be puréed the grittiness adds great texture for the soup. I use Bosc pears for this purpose. Also for hash I like to make a poutine. Loads of veg, meat optional, cheese, hollandaise sauce and softly poached egg.
I’ve never thought I’d be quasi disappointed in you Jess 😝 not growing enough onion and garlic?! Who are you, Mrs Tomato queen?! Haha. Trial and error, you live and learn. I’m glad you at least got to share this recipe with us!
We do potato hash with ground beef, then potatoes and onions, mix together and add soy sauce or worchesteshire sauce and then serve topped with a fried egg. Never tried it with sweet potatoes and bacon. Thanks! Cool
Which new shirt is your favorite?

Love this idea bc u do say this at the end alot and love that
That hash looks delicious! I think some sage would go really well with it also.
I laughed so hard when the t-shirt print showed up over Miah!!
Hahahaha 💁🏻♀️
That was rather clever😅
That's exactly how my dad would cook his fried egg every morning, and he used a little cast iron pan, too. I miss him. Thanks for the memory. And the sweet potato hash recipe! Love from Maine.

That's what I thought of when you said the new shirt design was "Real food comes dirty"
Love it!!
God made dirt...so what could it hurt? Is what i grew up with and thought the same thing !
Jessica you are amazing. I appreciate you sharing all you & your family do & how you live life. TY
Love your positive attitude. You bring joy to many people. God bless you and your family.
Miah! You are getting so slim!!! Really apparent now. Good job!
I love round-about recipes!!!
Love the show and love the "food comes dirty" slogan. I'd love it with a hand that looks like me.
I'm so glad that you are now enjoying making cooking content.... I remember the days when you would cringe talking about making a recipe / cooking video...... It really shows that you are enjoying another way to teach your audience about gardening

Do y'all have a Roots and Refuge Cookbook? I would jump on the chance to buy one with your witt and humor. Measurements or not.
Kimberly Schiele, she's planning on writing a cookbook someday in the future.
Thank you Now im totally excited!
This sweet potato recipe is so very good!!! It's officially a family favorite now.
The hash looks yummy!!! Gonna have to give it a try. Really like both shirts. The one about Tomatoes are better than supper... I was watching that video when Ben said that, so I'll always think of him when I see that 👕. The other one...I like it too, because it's cute & it's true!!! 😆 I BLESS Y'ALL! ❤🙏🌹
Jess, what kind of skillet did you cook your delicious sweet potato hash in? BTW, I ordered one of your new tee shirts-about real food comes dirty!!!
Miah is great... funny... be safe with the weather
Best way ever to do a breakfast egg for a working mum. I love fried eggs but not the grease. Thanks Jess, my favourite teacher in all the things. You bless us all xx
Yay! Sweet potato hash! Thank you!
Oh my... three new shirts ordered :)
Can't wait to get my new shirt. My favorite is "Real Food comes Dirty"
I am making this for breakfast! It smells heavenly! Even the dog is excited.
Trim the tops of your onions, while still green, to about 8 inches tall. Dry the tops and grind down for onion powder.
I love that Miah unknowingly was the model for the tomatoes are better than dinner shirt 🙂
I made this recipe for my family. It’s the first time my children have actually enjoyed sweet potatoes! Thank you for sharing.
Sweet Miah is such a kid sometimes. Love it. Lol
No, THANK YOU for hanging out with ME today!!! Lol! I bought a few sweet potatoes to try this out... I know it’s not the same but it’ll have to do until I can grow my own🙌🏼
And this, my friends, is dinner tomorrow! Thanks for the idea and the recipe! Bless you guys

*VERY VERY GOOD YES♥ GOOD AFTERNOON JESSI*
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS. THANKS.
As someone who cooks eggs just about daily- I am so trying it this way!!! Thanks!
Those type pears are the best for preserving. When they are sweet and still hard, eat them and enjoy.
Just ordered my Real Food Comes Dirty shirt! Thank you guys! All my love and blessings!
Yaeeee!!! Just got my first Roots & Refuge shirt 🙌 So excited to represent my favorite teachers and family ❤️ love you all so much!
Yay! Thank you!

Hi Jess! I like both t-shirts. Thank you so much for sharing your sweet potato hash recipe with us. It looks really good!
Oh my goodness.... the hash brown recipe looks soooo delish !!! 😁💕
Glad to see you.
Love it!! Real Everything Is Dirty!! Kids, house, men & food 💖
Love Who you are doing the Merch passing on the support to deserving ppl!!
Totally agree!!!
I love the egg trick I learned it Waiting Tables at Waffle House,I just use an Ice cube instead!
Haha, so true!
Soo true 😆🤣
I would love if you did a video on how you clean/season your
cast iron pans. I'm pretty new to using cast iron and feel like I'm not doing a good job seasoning it. Or maybe I am cleaning it wrong? Thanks for all your great videos!

Since most of the garden is finished by the time the second planting goes in you would be able to plant even more.
Oh that looks yummy. I can almost smell it through the screen! Thank you for sharing your home, garden and recipes Jess. I love your channel so much!
U should write a cook book! I would totally buy it! Love u girl!
Those pears are wonderful dehydrated and pear sauce
Yum. Fantastic! Will have to try this.
We have a version - chopped sweet potatoes, onion, basil, broccoli - put in cast iron pan. Drizzel coconut oil / butter and seasonings. Bake 350 degree 1 hour. Crispy on the bottom Can serve with yogurt dressing (plain, chopped chives) We will often have eggs and bacon too :)

I'm 3 minutes into the video and Tomatoes are Better Than Dinner is already ordered! 🍅
Make cider with the pears, or half them and put them in a simple syrup and jar them up.
I'm not a drinker, but pears canned in Bourbon or Rum are a delicious old victorian tradition and they're awesome! Lovely special dessert in the Winter! Some of my pears always go that way every year.
Pear butter is amazing. You grate the pears and slow cook it in yummy spices. Amazing!
My Nan used to make bottled pears, it's the one thing I can remember her canning, canning isn't as huge in the UK as it is in the USA. It's essentially just pears preserved in a syrup, you poach them briefly in the syrup to warm them through but not cook them and then pack them into jars and can.
Hop into it...OK now I know how little Ben gets it! Daddy role model.
Love them both! But best is Real food comes Dirty! Love you guys!
I thought I was the only one that cooked my fried eggs that way. Been doing it that way for about 45 years. Makes perfect fried eggs and no grease. Going to have to make me some sweet potato hash to go with the eggs.
I was hoping for Bam! We grow food. But both of the new ideas are also super cute💚
I have been a tomato hater for all my life and in a family of tomato haters but I’m about to start my own garden when we move in a month and I just HAD to get the tomatoes are better than dinner shirt because it’s SO PRETYY!
You can can pears with white grape juice, no sugar added! It’s really tasty!!
You should freeze dry some pear slices and also make fruit leather with them. Pie filling is good too! Frozen chunks are good for adding to smoothies.
I betcha those pears would be good diced up and cooked with your sweet potatoes.. either with the apples or in place of them, for a change up.. That sweet potato hash looks delicious to me.. I’m sad that my family doesn’t like a lot of the things I do... I won’t cook it for myself and I MISS a lot of those old-time southern dishes I enjoyed as a kid...

Sweet Potato Hash! Gotta try this soon!!
Can't wait to hear how many shirt orders they get the first week..... 👍😁
Hi Jess, I love your cutting board.
Yummy all the farm fresh things makes me wanna move in a warmer climate so I can grow all year round
Hash looks delicious.I make my eggs the same way. My son's brother-in-law started raising chickens , Long Island, New York, suburbs, and I was gifted a dozen Easter colored eggs today. Very excited to cook some tomorrow.
thank-you for your cooking tip with sweet potato love it Lyn
We use onions & Garlic always for wonderful heath and flavor so beneficial

Fruit leather might be a good use if you have a lot of pears to preserve.
