Links are affiliate links, but I will only recommend items I LOVE and use daily with no extra cost to you, and it helps support the channel! Thank you for your support!
am i weird? i don't care what you are posting about - a shopping trip, a thrifting trip, harvesting with the folks......im just happy to spend that time with you. :)
Heads up on the aluminum free baking powder: it reacts with water instead of heat like its aluminum containing counterpart meaning once it's added you need to move faster. You can't make a double batch and leave the mix to sit while the first cooks, the second batch will have already released its bubbles.
Breanna ... GTK, Thank-you, I didn't know that : )
Thanks for that tip Breanna - very useful!
Luckily she has two ovens! So hopefully not an issue !!
Wow! Thanks for sharing that top, I had forgotten that.
had no idea there was a difference TY
I absoultly love your channel i found you when i was in a very dark place and when i thought all would fall apart your channel and beautiful soul brought me so much peace you are so geniune and 1000% yourself and you made me feel more okay with being my self and loving the things i struggle with. You are so real in your videos and always make me feel like im right there with you and when your in your darkest times that is honestly all that keeps you going some times thanks for being a friend from a far cant wait to see more videos your biggest fan :)
Worcestershire sauce is shelf stable by the way. I've had open jars for 6+ months that have never once gone bad. My mom goes through it slower and has had bottles open a few years. It has so much vinegar and sugar in it, there's no need to worry. I've honestly never heard of anyone putting it in the fridge
UK staple and its just lives on the shelf and my mum has had hers for a long time - buy the gallon Becki hugs
I keep Worcestershire sauce it in the fridge for years. Never any issues or flavor changes here.
I finally canned my last major batch of tomatoes for this year. Ill get a short break then can tomatillos. Would love a freezer meals cookbook. There are only two of us but cooking from scratch is still a pain especially during canning and gardening season.
Same here.
I'd never heard of not keeping it in the fridge! How odd.
I always wait to watch your videos with my daughter. She is 14 and when she heard you today she yelled…”is that my Becky” we are getting into gardening and will have a big garden next year thanks to you. I appreciate everything you do and can not wait until the freezer cooking list comes out. Thank you so much for just being you!
Awe. I love that!
My spouse … says”IS THAT BECKY “. I laugh and say yes.. she’s given me some very good ideas.
Building CORE memories with your daughter. Right on!
@@jillpeterson8196 omg you can not believe how excited she is to start a huge garden. We have 2.65 acres and she is literally planning it out. Thanks to Becky this is happening because I never thought I could do it but Becky is so motivating
That warms my heart! Thank you for sharing. Im just as excited over Becky vids. I actually squealed the other day!
Pro tip for chip storage! I always reseal my chip bags using my vacuum sealer, I haven't had stale chips in forever!!
Yes works great! Only time I don't do it is at 2am when I get up to snack lol
silly question, do the chips not get crushed? I'd be worried I'd have crumbs lol!
I do the same thing. Those paper covered bags reseal too, just do it longer or twice in the same spot.
You just seal them not vacuum them
You mean there’s such a thing as leftover chips? ❤️🇨🇦
I would recommend looking into a Misto. It's a refillable cooking spray container! You just add your oil of choice to the container, pump a few times, and spray!
Yes! I have one for olive oil and avocado oil. No more buying the filled spray bottles. Cheaper and easier to just put my organic oils in them.
I bought one at Walmart just to try it and now I need another one. I love it too!
I've really enjoyed watching all that you've been doing. I'm about 30 weeks pregnant, on bed rest, with a 3 yr old and a 1 yr old. You're doing all the things I wish I could be doing now 😂
Oh Becky, I enjoy you so much! I am 81 and this year I am copying you with canning, dehydrating, baking bread, etc! We became vegetarian when the pandemic started so doing everything from scratch is so important to me! Your kitchen is absolutely perfect and how I love your view from that amazing window! You are definitely my idol!❤❤❤
Please eat meat.
Love this! I'm curious why you became vegetarian when the pandemic started. I promise I'm not trying to start a debate, just genuinely curious!
@@lindsayminn9101 the meat processing centers were filled with Covid and I didn’t trust any processing plants! We live in the state where Perdue and Mountaire chicken processing plants are located and have heard their stories. We had our fill of eating meat at this time in our lives and because of our decision, are now off of blood pressure and cholesterol meds. While not for everyone, it paid off for us!
FYI, a lot of veteranarians in the US don't believe organic animal products are ethical because (though it varies by country) in the US animals are not allowed to be given antibiotics and still be considered organic. If an organic animal gets sick, vets are restricted to only giving garlic boluses and not proper animal Healthcare. In Canada, they can have up to 2 medical treatments per year and still be considered organic but not in the US.
What I do to keep my chips and cracker from going stale is I put them in a mason jar and put the lid on and use my attachment to my food saver to vacuum the air out and it vacuum seals it. I do this to my dry beans and home dried spices too.
So fun to see all the goodies coming in.
Hi Becky I’m in Australia and have been growing cooking preserving food for years and I still keep learning so much from you so thanks for sharing and yesterday I put up another raised garden bed and filled it with soil ready fir spring planting down under, I stood back and looked at my new garden bed and said out loud “I think Becky would like my garden bed” 😀 I like seeing you vegetable hauls.

Oi
🙋🏽♀️ fellow Aussie! I’ve been wanting to find a good reliable supplier for organic bulk white or basmati rice, any recommendations? I’m in WA ☺️
When I did research on it, aluminum in baking powder isn't in high enough quantities to make it harmful. It makes it heat sensitive. Aluminum free baking powders are liquid sensitive, so if you use it, make sure you bake immediately rather than letting it set, or it may become inactive.
I agree. From what I have read the aluminum may leave an aluminum aftertaste but is not harmful. As Krista stated the aluminum free is liquid activated so don't let your your batter or dough sit too long before baking or you lose the ability to rise. The baking powder with aluminum is heat activated so it does not begin to work until those biscuits (or whatever) are in the oven.
Aluminum is harmful, whether it is baking powder, aluminum foil, cookware, etc... It accumulates in the body and the brain overtime, and causes alzheimer's and dementia.
If I was pregnant I wouldn’t chance. Better safe than sorry.
Your body cannot get rid of the aluminum. It builds up in the brain. Not worth the risk.
@@peggyisme god for you. 👍🏼 For my self…I still wouldn’t take any risk what so ever. ❤️
If you buy gallons of Worcestershire sauce you can always can the extra in smaller containers When I buy bulk of any type of sauce that’s what I do
I’m so excited for what’s to come! Everything I’ve ever made from you has been wonderful
Becky, something to consider to save money is to use plain Greek yogurt in place of sour cream. I use it on baked potatoes, make chip dips with it, and honestly I can’t tell the difference.
You can also save money by use Plain Greek Yoghurt with live culture as a starter and make your own yoghurt. You will always have yoghurt in the house.
Same
and make your own!
Its really simple.
Its super intimidating i know but once you do it youll kick yourself for not doing it sooner its so easy honestly a kid could do it. And should tbh.
Like you get your milk.
You heat it to a certain temp on the stove to sterilise any bacteria that would basically stop the good bacteria your gonna add from multiplying and actually fermenting into yoghurt.
You put it in the fridge to cool down to room temp.
You get whatever container youre using for the yoghurt (i personally hve a fermenting machine its called the kuvings yoghurt and cheese maker but you can do pickles and anything you want to heat for a long time. Most yoghurt makers are glorified thermos that is zero electricity or anything or theyre a water bath system which is a waste of water and they usually have like maybe 2 or 3 preset temps and times like 12 24 48 hrs so you only have a very limited range of options and will often have to come back and restart the machine so you can add another 12 hrs or whatever. Plus of course the danger hot water and steam. The kuuvings one is super easy you can choose whatever temp you want and whatever time up to like i want to say 99 but i got it for the scd diet to make scd yoghurt which is 30hrs and 43C thats what ive got to i tried longer an slighter less temp and such anyway theres no water you pop the container it comes with via the handle into the machine pop the lid on and thats it. It heats up retains the temp and automatially shuts off when the timer ends. Its more like a slow cooker method.
And you really dont even need to do that theres finicking around with an oven to keep it warm for that long OR taking all the trays out of you exalibur food dehydrator it has to be that style of dehydrator and putting your container inside setting the temperature and ideally a timer but you can always pop an egg timer next to it and if your unsure of the temp of the dehydrator just put a room thermometer style one inside the dehydrator and if your dehydrator door is clear you can monitor it that way the first time. But dont open the door before its done. Anyway yeah it basically becomes a mini oven which is what a dehydrator is anyway but yeah it would be a good size and most people who want to make their own yoghurt probably already have one but if youre into fermenting id get the machine since you can use it for anything and its small bench top and does everything for you. No fiddling around with things or taking up ovens for over a day or using insane amounts of electricity doing so plus it doesnt put off an external heat like dehydrators and ovens do so no worries about that especially in summer.
But yeah all you need is milk i prefer organic cows milk. Id get raw milk if i was legally able to or hell even had the option of raw milk anywhere in my vicinity. Id have a dairy cow if i could. Anyway and some good yoghurt. It cant be any yoghurt but it has to be commerical yoghurt preferably fresh although starters are an option. You put in about i want to say 30g per litre of milk basically a tablespoon or two. And you mix it with the cooled milk. The reason you want to use commercial and not the last batch you made is because they have extremely high counts of live bacteria thats high quality and you just avoid any bifid containing yoghurts and yoghurt eith any additives. So it should be fermented milk essentially. Which is what youre making. Anyhoo i get farmers union greekstyle natural yoghurt. The scd yoghurt that ive made is very akin to greek yoghurt flavour. I mean you can add whatever toppings you want but if you hate greek yoghurt then youll probably not be into it. The reason btw that you want fermented true yoghurt and not thick sweet milk which is what store bought modern yoghurt is. Is because the good bacteria eat all the lactose down to like less than 1% and not only is it an amazing probiotic like frankly anything fermented far better than any tablet like small bowl of yoghut has more probiotics than like a hundred jars of tablets. Anyway the lactose is digested meaning its waaaay better on your body even if you have no issues with lactose and is superfood af. And just the way yoghurts suppose to be. Like even the good yoghurt youd use as a starter wont be okay to eat as anything but inside your yoghurt because its not been fermented or truly become yoghurt. So you really need that 24hrs minimum 30hrs max time to get true healthy human soul food. Any longer than 30hrs or so and the good bacteria will starve because there wont be any sugar (lactose) left for them to eat. And youll lose all the probiotics.
Now when you put it in the fridge theyll go into a bit of a stasis and last for about 2 weeks before they die so id say a litre of yoghurt per person per week is a good estimate for anyone who has a small bowl everyday now dont heat it after you ferment it into yoghurt or youll just kill all the good bacteria. So sure use some in a bread or muffin or whatever but make sure youve enough for a small bowl everymorning usually with some sort of fat like a ripe banana that will help protect/absorb the probiotics and give you better results than eating it plain.
Anyhoo i attempted to explain it haha
Do your own research and such but if youre a beginner take the rasy option and get an electronic fermenter with a wide temperature and timer range that doesnt involve water bathing. When you do get ue to it and such you can always try out the other methods but honestly unless youve got like 10 kids and live on a farm with a dairy cow which hello im jealous haha but you really wont want to be making it anymore difficult than it has to be unless youre already making growing storing etc all your own stuff.
Since I went plant based around 8 years ago, I have just used plant based yoghurt (homemade and store bought) instead of sour cream and haven’t missed dairy sour cream even one bit! Esp coconut yoghurt is great and makes the yummiest dressings, dips etc. If the yoghurt is a bit thin, you just add it to a sieve lined with some cheese cloth, put it in a bowl and let it sit in the fridge over night or from morning till night and it will thicken up nicely. If you let it sit even longer, around 36 hours after it was made, you get yoghurt cheese which you can use instead of cream cheese. I would think you could do the same with dairy yoghurt too, but personally I even like the plant based version better… 🤗
Same
Pepper!!!!! I think about your broken jar all the time when you mention pepper! I’m so glad you have it back in bulk!!!!
Thanks for showing us how you make the beans, that little canner is a blessing! 🌷
Becky, you make everything look so easy. Thank you for sharing 🤗
You can save a few tablespoons of that Greek yogurt and make your own in an instant pot! Just save a scoop each time as your starter for the next batch
Please share what you do! Thanks!
@@Gr8fullgal whisk in a few tablespoons of plain Greek yogurt and half gallon of Fairlife (ultra pasteurized) whole milk, use the yogurt setting for 8-12 hours and done!
@@jennacarnahan2865 Thank you!!!
you can order yogurt starter that doesn't require the insta pot either! I make my own yogurt every week, I just use one jar from the previous week as my "starter", mix with milk & let them sit on the counter overnight (I think it's called mesophyllic vs thermophyllic? or vice versa) And voila! Fresh yogurt all the time! (I sweeten mine with maple syrup ;) )
@@jennacarnahan2865 no sugar required for food?
Becky I love your content. Please understand you are so motivational to a lot of people including myself
And myself a 59 y.o. Grama❤😊
Ohhhh those beeswax candles😍 beautiful! Nice to hang out with you girl! You almost have me convinced to place my first Asure order 😉
Haha the candles are so good! A real treat :)
We don’t get azure here in the uk
I'm about to give up on Azure. The drop times are very unreliable on the East Coast. Not their fault, a lot can happen to mess them up but I can't order anything perishable because if they are late and I'm working on the day they finally arrive it will all go back before I can pick it up. Makes me sad as I love their stuff.
@@AcreHomestead I love your beautiful nails and wore nails for years before learning of their dangers. Something to consider is the amount of toxins that can easily enter your system through your nail bed and the high toxicity level of nail salon air. Much love to your growing family ♡
I am expecting mine to come in on my azure order this Tuesday! I'm so excited! 😃
Hi Becky, I'm really looking forward to your guide. You've encouraged me to start freezer meals and I'm now beginning to look into food preservation for my family. You're an excellent guide/ role model and I thank you for all you do for all of us that enjoy your channel. Be well and safe ❤
How are y'all liking the new house? How r u feeling.? U look wonderful!!
Was just going to post the same questions. How’s mama and baby doing? Gender reveal yet? 🎉
Exactly! You are so so busy and doing all the rhings, you look amazing, but we are all just wondering how you are both doing!
I think the aluminum in baking powder can give a metallic taste to food, and as baking powder isn't used in huge quantities in a single serving it's safe to eat. Also, aluminum-free baking powder reacts with liquid, while with aluminum it reacts with heat, so when mixing aluminum free baking powder into dough it will start to rise as it gets wet
Is that also the difference between single acting and double acting baking powder?
I was going to say this same thing! You beat me to it 😅 aluminum in baking powder is not bad for you Becky, go ahead and use up what you have. I tried aluminum free baking powder and found I didn’t like the end result as much. Not enough rise in my baked goods. Apparently I’m not fast enough getting my batter/dough in the oven 😅
The Rumford baking powder is made by the Clabber company 😊
Thank you for posting this info! Very enteresting, I love the learning about the science of cooking
@@trishcuster3343 I was about to post this same thing. I always read the comments hoping to get some information.
Yay, I’m so excited for your freezer meal planner!!!
Love it! You are getting prepared for that lil baby! So many fun videos coming our way cant wait!!!
So bizarre to me that there is a wholesale food company with my name Azure. And the fact that you pronounce exactly the way my family does is so cool. 😊
Hi Becky, can’t wait for the bulk cooking booklet; so excited.
Love all your videos & the community here is so uplifting & helpful too. 🤩
I have been using Azure now for awhile (thanks to you!) and we love it! Thank you for bringing them into our lives.
I only found your channel recently but I LOVE your content. I didn't know you put out a newsletter; I paused the video to sign up as soon as you mentioned it. Your new property is so amazing and I can't wait to see what all you do there!
Hi Becky, it's great to see you looking well rested and so happy. 💖 I signed up for your newsletter
Oh I’m so excited for the postpartum prep videos! I’m 35 weeks and really need some good ideas to try 👍🏼
Adult diapers will be your friend!
I’m so glad to see you’ve finally got your peppercorns! 😊
I watch you in awe and hope to learn more and more from you. Your energy is contagious and motivating. Thank you for sharing!
I had breast cancer surgery in 2019 I found out a lot about aluminum in a lot of products that we use every day like our deodorant I was really surprised at everything that I had found out and that they told me at the cancer center so I now use a aluminum free deodorant antiperspirant it’s made by Armen Hammer and I love it it is like rosemary and lavender they have a couple different fragrances that I liked and it’s made with pure natural products so do a lot of research sweetie I think all women need to do that for a whole lot of different things that we use every day
I’m excited for your upcoming meal planning with all these grocery items.
I am ever so impressed with your dedication to this new CZcams journey. Not so new but definitely a full time adventure now. I love your videos. Love your choice of words, always to calming and especially your positive outlook when anything doesn’t go according to plan. I might try this grocery system.
Thank you Becky for another great video, love them all and I love learning all the new things. Hope you are well.
My pears are nearly ready to be used too! Hope to be able to follow your recipe along with you. Love the idea of the bulk recipe booklet. Great video as alway Becky take care of yourself.
You're just amazing. I talk to my husband all the time about your channel. I told him I wanted to put seasoning on my meat then freeze them. But when I woke up he had already put them in the freezer. So I had to take out all the meat, season it and put them back in the freezer. I'm so happy for you and Josh, the first baby item. It's always exciting. I'm going to be a grandma again. My first granddaughter. I have 6 grandsons. Anyway love your videos.
Wow first granddaughter after 6 grandsons! What a milestone! It's the boys that are rare on my husband's side, but not to that ratio even. My husband was the only boy with 3 sisters. Each of them only had one boy, so it was pretty exciting a couple years ago when we had our second boy
I'm definitely going to try those paper towels!! Love that! ❤️ love this video! Love organizing and different content from you. Everything you create is great!! Hope you and your beautiful family are healthy and happy 😊!
Love seeing your hauls and all your content, I have made the Apple crisp and love it. I have learned so much from your channel in a short space of time I too have had an abundance of tomatoes and made chutney and now tomato ketchup. your amazing many thanks Julie from England. xxx
I am too old for most of what you do, but it is so much fun to watch and I really enjoy your channel! Thank you! If I were 30 years younger I would have liked to think I would be good at this also, but .. I was good at being a nurse and caring for others! But I have learned so much from watching your channel!
Obviously inflation but also a common practice at many stores is to raise the “normal” price and then mark it on sale. I used to work pricing at target and it happened every day.
Good on you! You could totally make a cookbook and sell it! Your confidence when you cook gets me every time!
If they stock bacio cheese you should try it! It usually comes in a wheel - it’s the only cheese I can eat on its own, delicious.
haha I loved the end credit where we got to see you making the thumbnail, the transition from smiling/holding your products to getting of the counter had me in stitches!
Becky your nails always look so awesome 👏🏼 loves your hauls,so glad I found you 🙌🏼
I just got my first email!! I’m definitely gonna look into buying beef and that link is so helpful 💕 Your videos are always chock-full of information and great content ☺️ Thanks so much!
Hello Becky !!! Love watching you cant wait to see your new food preservation video
The ending was adorable. Thank you so much for taking the time to make this content. It is an oasis.
Had no idea canning beans was so easy! And that canner makes it even better. ❤ Think I’ll be adding that to the Christmas wish list. LOL
Been watching you for a while now Becky, and as with most people here you’re my favourite channel ❤ I don’t have much spare money but 10 minutes into this video I paused it and put in my first ever bulk food order! I know it will be cheaper in the long run. Just for dried goods, but I’m SO excited to start building my food storage. We have a small homestead and the gardening season is juuuust starting here in NZ. I will be channeling all the amazingness you bring! Now to find somewhere to put all the food I ordered 😂😍
You’re an inspiration in each vlog; thanks for sharing! I’m going to can beans fr the first time in my 7 decades! I usually cook my baked beans & freeze them but am out of freezer space, so this is a great idea! Many blessings to your family 🤗❤️🇨🇦
I’m so excited for this guide!!!! Already looked at some of the recipes when I signed up for the newsletter.
You can’t really know how much you bless me life. Thank you for your videos.
I just wanted to say “You are a joy to watch.” I look forward to your videos, they brighten my day.
Nice haul Becky. I am excited that you are coming out with the freezer meal packet! I also signed up for your newsletter.
That's it I'm canning my own beans. Thank you for showing me how! God Bless!
I love to watch your show its really awesome to see all the beautiful fruits and vegetables 😍
We love seventh generation wipes - target FREQUENTLY runs huge sales/gift cards back for diapers and wipes and the seventh gen ones are so nice and thick compared to others!
Thank you for inspiring me to grow and preserve what I grow or purchase
I love your videos and your Azure hauls. Thanks for sharing!
I don't know how you get some much done. You are amazing.
So excited for the freezer cooking guide 🙃 and once you start weaning your little one maybe you could do a baby friendly version so the whole family can sit down and eat the same meal xx
Very nice haul! I see more and more vids where people are canning stuff from bulk buys and it makes perfect sense!
I just placed my first Azure order! Love your videos Becky!!
You are an amazing woman! If think real hard I can remember back to when I used to do some of the things you do. I had 5 kids and I was a single, working, homeschooling mom so I did some of what you do (I had to) but you are super woman! My kids are all grown, in their own homes, with their own mates and children. Your husband is super blessed with you. I look forward to learning more from you. You are an inspiration.
I LOVE Azure Standard! We’ve been buying from them for a year. Great company!
I enjoy watching your videos, I learn so much. Thank you for sharing your knowledge on homesteading. I live vicariously through your videos!
I have those exact same kitchen towels from Costco and love them! Going back to more!
Becky, just incase you are not aware you can keep your Worcestershire sauce in the cupboard perfectly fine, it does not need to take up space in the fridge 😊 have a wonderful day! Kelley from Aus 👋🏻
I agree l have never stored my Worcestershire Sauce in the fridge. It is perfectly fine stored in your pantry/cupboard . 👍🏻😊
@@genny-genevievemarsh I can never spell it right 🤦♀️
Oh good! I'm out right now but I've never refrigerated it!
Ive never put it in the fridge either and it never loses flavor.
We call it Wash Your Sister Sauce.
You’re so inspiring. My sister is getting two kinds of vanilla extract this year as one of her Christmas gifts. I just added a large bottle of vodka to keep adding my “used” vanilla beans to as a mother jar. Also, more vodka for citrus infusion and bourbon for apple infusion (yay). I made sauerkraut for the first time for my mom, she got to decide when it was perfect for her. I canned it up and she had it for the first time cooked up yesterday and declared it perfect so that’s a win and she has it in her pantry, enough for a year. I just canned my first apple pie filling and did freeze a pie pan full like you showed us last time. Interested in seeing the difference and decide which we prefer. Kept the cores/peelings and am currently fermenting apple scrap vinegar now. Fingers crossed 🤞.
It’s crazy how much I love your shopping hauls!!! You should take us thrifting again I loved that too! Hope you are feeling wonderful Becky! God Bless
TY TY TY !!! Appreciate your videos and hope you are feeling well.
I absolutely love watching your videos!! I look so forward to seeing them daily! Thank you so much for teaching me how to do freezer meals!!! You have made my life so much easier! Love you tons!
Can’t wait for scratch pantry to print better! So excited!!
Wow!! You are SO organized in shopping in bulk and everything that you do on the Acre Homestead. You will surely enjoy the fruits of your labour. Bon Appetit!!!
I am really enjoying your content! Thank you Becky!!
I do wish we had something like Azure in the UK. You have completely changed the way I shop and cook so thank you for such brilliant inspirational content. Sending best wishes 😊
Me too… it’s SO much harder to find in the UK, as is buying half/whole animal butchery
Me three! An Azure Standard in the UK would quite simply change my life! 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
I know.
The amount of time I search on the internet for bulk that deliver is unbelievable. The only organic delivery is on smaller sized products.
I’ll keep looking. 😊
Azure in Canada 🇨🇦 would be good too😊
Was thinking the same thing ☺️ I’m always working when farmers markets and things are on so I don’t have a chance to go - Abel & Cole or Riverford are probably closest we get but without the bulk buying options…
Yay!!!! A Becky video. I need this. I feel like the tasks are just at times overwhelming and I am in great need of motivation. TY!!
Becky, you're glowing. I hope you're feeling as well as you look. I really want to explore Azure; the stuff looks amazing. Stay well and put your feet up now and again. Thanks for sharing.
So excited for the freezer cooking packet! I can find recipes, and shop, but I specifically struggle with the streamlining and thinking ahead in that way. Amazing video as always 💙😁
We put honey on our homemade 2% yoghurt. Amazing flavor. Rosemary extract is a good, natural preservative in that mayo…
I over bought the yogurt from Azure…. I ended up freeze drying the extra. Pretty cool to have yogurt in a jar on my shelf.
Very jealous of your freeze dryer. I do love my dehydrators though, both are currently working overtime, lol. I had three but had to set one free on marketplace and now there’s another happy person dehydrating their stuff. I’m thinking of buying a new place with a bigger garden area in the spring. House might be smaller 😂 so this winter I’m doing a big purge. Funny how priorities change 😉.
It’s so fun to get your first baby item! :) Others mentioned you can use cloth wipes and I agree, however those disposable ones are so nice when you’re out of the house. And you’ll use those up no problem - they’re handy for so many things. 😊
I ordered the pressure canner through your link…. The easy dried beans got me! I have been watching your canning journey and considering taking the plunge. Excited to get started!!!!
I have binge watched all of your videos and always look forward to new ones! Because of you I have started cooking more and have been buying up everything to preserve and can. I’m an ER nurse that works nights and a mom of 2 teenagers and a 3 year old. I always get so overwhelmed with keeping up the house and trying to cook but watching you gives me motivation to do more. Thank you for all you do!!!
Same!!!! I have found my inner Becky and have found her so inspiring I started a container garden, grew and harvested some produce. Canning and dehydrating now and now a member of an azure drop! Thanks Becky for being so inspiring! ❤
Yogurt and half and half will freeze very nicely in their containers for up to 3 months, if you want to stock up for later at some point. I do that regularly and it works great. Just let it thaw completely before you use it for the best texture. Though...the yogurt IS pretty good even when it's still kind of frozen! Last year for Christmas breakfast i made some greek yogurt that i flavored with lemon extract and topped with home made cranberry sauce and crushed cereal, then froze into bars. it was a delicious and healthy treat right out of the freezer.
So with you and the dish towels! Costco's are a great price and the thickness works for the worst kitchen spills. As they age, I sew a little piece of coloured ribbon into a corner and they become the floor cloths.
Thank you for all the great ideas. Loving the canned beans, and because of you I am seriously thinking of placing an Azure order soon. I buy bulk too but I really love the organic ideas Azure has on the web page.
FYI, you can freeze half & half. We do it all the time and the taste & texture is the same as if not frozen.
I livve your videos and always look forward to the next one. Its so obvious you love making your videos and talking to us all and imparting your knowledge. You are looking great too xx
Thank you. Good timing about the Electric canning pot. I have been on the fence about it and looking at the Presto canner. I live in Missouri and I don’t have to worry about my elevation or sea level and it looks to be easy to learn. Would love and appreciate some videos on your pressure canner when you can.
🥰🙏🏻❤️
You're amazing Becky. Your enthusiasm and intentions regarding food growing, shopping and cooking is authentic and inspiring. I also love seeing your parents in your videos. Their love and support is 💯 for their family. I am excited for this new season ahead for you. A beautiful new home and garden and a new addition to the family. I chuckled when you showed your carton of wipes. I was 7 months pregnant before I walked into a baby shop and quickly marched out again. I personally found the whole thing overwhelming and had to do some last minute thrifting to get some baby items before he arrived.
Excited to have your freezer cooker guide. You are the best. You have so much energy and drive, I enjoy watching you as you inspire me.
Thank you for always having a video for us
