    Today’s meals and recipes bring back memories of my grandmother. She soaked her chicken in buttermilk before frying and cooked her collards greens with bacon - so down home delicious.

    Where were you when my children were in school, and I was a busy working mom? Oh, I know…you were in school, too. Lol You are my older daughter’s age. But, I adore everything you do! Your energy level surpasses any I’ve ever had…even when I was in my twenties and thirties. After a day of teaching elementary aged children ( my dream fulfilled) I’d come home and be exhausted. Phew. To have the meals you create, we wouldn’t be eating until 7 at night. But, you definitely make things look easy because of your preparation and organization. You’re the best, Lauren. I do have a question, or two…do you give the veggie scraps to the chickens? And could you tell me again about your nails? I love your videos, and get excited to see what you’re doing. ❤️

    Yessss, I'm in here Lauren! When I saw macaroni and cheese, my soul leaped!
    Glad to see you add some oil to your collard greens. I fry some fat back meat after I have washed away all the salt that preserves it, then I add the grease from the meat to my greens. Next, I add a par boiled turkey neck with water added to simmer my greens.
    Some of my people also put two large ham hocks in the greens for that delicious ham flavor. I, too have tried ham hocks. My late aunt Elizabeth who was better known as BigMama put bacon grease and fatback meat grease in her collards. She worked for a lawyer for years not only as their housekeeper, but she was their cook. They would have her cook their Thanksgiving dinner for them every year. And paid her extra! Her food was that good.
    Your greens look Delicious 😋.

    I can't tell you how accomplished i would feel prepping a weeks dinners, like these. Like, i feel like i might as well be shooting to be an astronaut. But you can do it. So, i should try it. I think seeing someone do something that seems insurmountable from beginning to end is really really helpful. And I'm not beating up on myself, i can probably clean in a way others would find impossible. But cooking.... lol

    Love that Fried chicken recipe, I will make it but how long do you leave the chicken in the oven?

    Hi Lauren, I am not a cook but, watching you cook makes me want to cook 😂 The chicken looks delicious! I just have to try to make that Mac n cheese. Have a blessed week ☀️

    Is there a place where all your links are to print all your planners? I just love the way they look.

    Would you have a link to the wooden tray that sits on your kitchen sink it is gorgeous?

    Hey Lauren! Do you mind sharing where/how you got the vintage alcohol posters up on your kitchen walls? I live in a 1925 Craftsman home and I think those would look so classy in mine. I also like to pay homage to my homes identity ☺️

    It is a lot of work to prep everything, but it makes it easier
