Slow Living with Autism
United States
Registrace 11. 10. 2023
Learning how to SLOW DOWN has been instrumental in helping me find a bit of calm. I pray this channel is an encouragement to others with busy brains to slow down and take care of yourself ... this really helps us live the best life possible.
Content you might see here: whole foods cooking, gardening, sourdough, Costco hauls, Azure Standard hauls, food preservation, homeschooling (helping with grandchildren - 8 so far!), nature study, etc. Of course you'll probably also see videos about autism as both I and my 30-year-old son are officially diagnosed.
Side note: I'm famous for starting a channel, building up subscribers, and then when a shutdown and/or burnout comes along I react by frantically deleting everything. Hopefully I've learned by now? I want to keep this as low-key as possible with the hopes of it not adding stress to my life. I'm not going to commit to scheduled posting but will commit to doing my best.
Questions for a Q&A? My email is available below in the desktop view.

In this video I share a "day in the life" but only the morning portion. This morning video does not include my morning routine and self care, but rather it has what I do AFTER all of that is done. I show what's going on in my kitchen - kamut sourdough discard crackers and einkorn sourdough bread; my garden journal set up for this year; activity in the barn and barn yard; and what's going on in ...

Why don't u leave it in the jar it's made in? Or make it in a smaller receptacle that the blender fits through the mouth of?
I don't leave it in the jar it's made in because it has too much air space. Less air space means less oxygen, and that helps with proper food storage. I don't make it in a smaller jar because it splashes up or spatters while blending and I'd rather not have to clean up the random spatters that fly on to the surrounding area (counter top, cabinet door, etc.). I hope that answers your questions - thanks for watching.
Wow I am going to try this! I have wasted so many cups of oil mixing with some sort of plant milk to end up with disasters of thin goo.
Oh no!!!!! Sorry to hear that! Let me know how this goes for you!

The crackers look delicious! 😋
They were good!
I'm autistic too and I totally understand the different walking experiences. I don't live in the US, so the social rules are a little bit different here, but every time I walk somewhere just to wander I feel slightly illegal lol. Unfortunately I don't have any big parks near me, but whenever I go out of town with my family and I can walk in a forest, or around some lake, with no one around me, that's just the peak walking experience. Fortunately, if I walk through the same route in the city enough times, it stops feeling weird. Thank you for making this video! I really enjoyed it!
Thank you for sharing!! We all just have to find what works for us ... whatever helps our brains function best :) :) :) For me, it's definitely walking or hiking in nature, and gardening. Gardening is something I can to wherever I'm at, so that's nice :) My gardens got a bit behind this past summer, so right now I'm trying to clean them up and get them ready for winter. Anyway, thanks for commenting and have a great day! Joanne in SW MO
