    What I have learned from transitioning from a city girl to a homesteading/farming wife is that you really don’t need to go to the gym anymore! Every day is leg and ab day carrying feed and slop, and checking fencing or herding cattle. Squats happen twice a day during milking. Mozzarella day is arm day! 😂 That stretching work is no joke. Super lovely video! I greatly appreciate you sharing all you do. I’ve learned so much from you with your very specific instructions, and I also greatly enjoy watching you teach your kids so many amazing, valuable skills by your side! Those are some very lucky kids to have a mum like you!

      This is my second video I found her the zucchini pineapple, and I only watch the intro and then I clicked on this one and then the intro she talked about how she was raised melanite, and she wants to share this knowledge with the next generation. So adorable. Did she say it at the beginning of this video I don't remember.

I am amazed by all you do & have to wonder what time you start in the morning & if you do the cheese, pasta, & make the lasagna all in one day? You're an amazing lady!

    Hello Ruth Ann - I too am super excited to have your videos in my life now. You are exactly what I have been looking for, for years. Keep it simple, don't over complicate things. Farm life is hard work but so rewarding. I am now in a position in my life to be able to stay at home full time. We moved across the state of Texas (even moving the cows). I have raised Dutch Belteds now for over 12 years. I have only attempted mozzarella cheese once which was a failure. Your video has inspired me to give it another go. I think I just quite too soon. I can make all kinds of other cheeses, 2024 will be the year that I conquer mozzarella. Thank you again for all your videos. Keep them coming.

    I like to stretch some out to the size of my pinky. Then I use that to make stuffed crust pizza! Along with some homemade tomato sauce! You can also take the string cheese, roll it in bread crumbs, and deep fry it to make deep fried mozzarella sticks . Instead of shredding my cheese, I would roll it out into round or rectangle sheets for pizzas or lasagna. Oh my goodness I have to stop watching the video. Because now I’m starving! 😂 Everything looks delicious! Thank you for sharing! 😊

    I also use 1qt of saved whey from the last batch of cheese. I was also taught how to use
    quajo/or goat gut to use as renet.

    You know,in one of your videos you pointed out that the viewer who said you didn't sound very educated was right as you have an 8th grade education, just like my mom did. After watching quite a few of your videos, I think I can hear what that viewer was hearing, but I don't think it's education related. You're more like a school teacher. You have, effectively, an enormous class size, and you're teaching at a very inclusive pace. It reminds me of how I was taught to cook, except you know more about herbs and simples than my family did. This is an excellent tutorial!

    Thanks so much for this! Looks delish! The background music, what is it? I hear that high pitched whistle in all your videos and it’s catchy. Happy sounding. Yea I’ve been binge watching your videos. Covid has allowed that and I’m not complaining. You are a joy to watch. ❤️🙏☀️☕️🌻 Wishing you a blessed week full of great successes!
