More Spring Cleaning
I’m making myself tackle some major chores today. Hopefully the weather will cooperate and I can reward myself by spending the next two days outside. Anyway, it is time for spring cleaning. Here are a few things I’ve done around here already: Moved all the furniture in the living room and mopped under it during […]
Spring Cleaning: Cabinets
When I can tear myself away from the garden I’m slowly reorganizing our kitchen cabinets. So far I have all the upper cabinets done. Next, I need to tackle the drawers and bottom cabinets. Everything is stuffed in there and it is so frustrating to have things falling out when you open the doors. Here’s […]
You Know You Worked Hard…
…when the water in the shower runs black!! I put in 40 tomato plants today and did a whole lot of weeding to make a place for them. It feels good to get so much done plus church, breakfast out with the family, and a bridal shower. Garden update coming soon, I promise! Thank you […]
Must.Write
Ugg. Can’t I just write that? Lol. Might as well just say what’s on my mind… I haven’t been writing because I’m not sure in which direction to take this blog. It seems like all I ever post about anymore is farm animals and menu plans. I have a lot more on my mind than […]
If I’m gone..
I was unlucky enough to get a virus on our laptop early Saturday morning so if I’m not around for awhile that’s why. I’m hoping to get it back on Monday but we’ll see. TTFN!
Freezer Cooking: Precooked Chicken
It never hurts to have some chicken precooked and waiting in the freezer. Ingredients: Chicken breasts (I prep them to stretch them farther) Oil or butter You can cook the chicken a few different ways. If it’s nice out you may want to grill it. Or, this would be a perfect use for a George […]
Freezer Cooking: Lemon Chicken
This is one of my favorites. Not because of the taste, although it is good. It’s my favorite because we like to grill it and hubby does the grilling. i.e. less cooking for me. 😉 Ingredients: Your favorite herbs (I use parsley and oregano) salt pepper Garlic powder or minced fresh garlic Lemon juice Chicken […]

Don’t try to skimp, trust me. I used less and was annoyed when […]
Freezer Cooking: Herbed Chicken
Once you have your chicken prepped you’re ready to make up your meals. I usually gather the recipes and order them by what I want to make the most or what we’re low on. Then I just go down the line until I run out of chicken. You can decide on exact quantities ahead but […]
Freezer Cooking: Prepping Chicken Breasts
Chicken breasts were on sale last week at 3 of our local chain stores. I stocked up with 4 family packs. Hopefully after this we can transition to eating only our own homegrown chicken. BTW, I still have some chickens available for the early June batch so get your orders in soon! When chicken breasts […]
