Hon, please DO NOT call yourself lazy (even as a joke; ie; the apple pie crust) you are obviously far from that and you are amazing… no more verbal curses like that on yourself please… you are amazing ♥️ ps: remember how many people eat premade garbage on a regular basis and then think about how skilled you are in feeding your beautiful family!!

Congratulations dear! It’s so nice to see a young women who want’s to go back to the tried and true traditional home running or steading! Never stop, please…never stop. Learn to live on one paycheck, meal plan and stay at home with your children. Teaching them, and watch them grow. God Bless you dear. Your Blessings will come to you and your Husband three fold…and forget about other people….✝️♥️

Hey A!ix, Congrats! Tell that new hubby of yours that a guy old enough to be his grandpa said that he got himself a keeper! Homesteading/farming is a rewarding way of life that teaches your children a great work ethic and growing/preserving your own food will keep your family happy and healthy. If you both want to be homesteaders, go for it. Give your family a great life. Bless you both!

Alix with an I, I am also a new wife, a homestead wannabe, and not yet a mother! And obviously I also find Jessica / Three Rivers Homestead to be an inspiration! 😄 I am not to a point where I can “officially” start home steading by any stretch of the imagination (my husband is in the US Marines and we will have to move every two or three years for a while longer), but I am trying to do little things that I can within my home to prepare me for it. Like finally learning to can and learning to sew (both of which I still need to begin 😬 lol!), those kinds of things. May God bless you in your efforts as well!

While I’m not a homesteader, I do buy in bulk when items are on sale or in season. I really enjoy seeing how you utilize your “found” pantry and freezer items and am often inspired. And I truly got a chuckle about the plating comment 😂 As a mom and now Grandma, I agree that yummy and nutritious food that you can serve affordably to your family is what it’s all about! Blessings and prayers for continued healing 🙏

So much to say but I'm going to keep it polite...Please stop feeling like you have to explain yourself like you're doing something wrong. I come here because I find what you do strong, inspired, loving and down right awesome. I can't believe there are people out there who come here to criticize you, your meals, or whatever other nonsense they feel like spewing forth that day. They should get over themselves or leave. I know I speak for many people when I say I very much enjoy what you do here, I appreciate that you share your family with us and even if you make a meal that's not my cup of tea...well that's just life isn't it? If we were all the same, liked the same things and talked about the same topics and agreed about everything life would be pretty boring. I mean come on!!! Someone doesn't like your food presentation! What the heck is wrong with that person?

I’m sending you a ketchup recipe to try. You can either use fresh tomatoes or just use tomato sauce. This ACTUALLY tastes like ketchup. I found this on a KZfaq channel from a large family in Canada, though I don’t recall the channel. From one Buckeye to another I hope you enjoy it. “Heinz” ketchup Remove stems and skins Make puree Simmer stirring periodically Cook down to desired consistency and blend again. Per quart of tomato sauce: 2 tsp salt 1 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp onion powder ¾ cup cane sugar ¾ cup apple cider vinegar Mix into tomato sauce and simmer until gets to your consistency To can: Water bath for 15 minutes for pints/half pints

Our lives couldn’t be more different - my husband and I are recently empty nesters so we have way fewer mouths to feed - but I find so much inspiration from your channel! Your voice is so calm and soothing and you motivate me to clean up our diets and cook more from scratch. I don’t know how you do it all - you certainly have your hands full - but I can appreciate how hard you work and how much you do for your family. That’s one of the things I love about KZfaq - is getting a peek into the lives of so many different people - many of whom we would never have the chance to meet in our regular lives! So thanks for sharing your family and your home with us 😊

Thank you for being the first person I’ve found to explain how to use soft wheat berries vs hard wheat berries. As a new bread baker I would love if you did a video in the various wheat berries/grains and how they can be used. Also - your presentation is fine, real life is one of the things that make your channel so special.

I did well this month. I did break my self imposed rules for a couple things. 1. I had a local butcher running a great sale on beef roasts so I couldn't pass up buying a good chunk...but I canned it all for later. (Had to eat 1 pint that didn't seal) I also discovered that my yeast was not good so had to buy some new bulk yeast. Cheaper than buying bread items every week. But over all we did really well...might see how far I can go in Feb. Too

I adjusted the challenge for my needs - I don’t have a canned goods storage (once my canners get here, I plan on starting this year) for the challenge, I’m going through all my cabinets to see what needs eaten up - almost done. Once my pressure canner comes around March I’ll try to get portioned out ready to go meals canned. Right now I’m portion testing - I’m freezing the food until then. I got my first load done today. 8 soups and 3 cheeseburger „casseroles“. So exited

Its super nutritious and your family loves it.!!! 💜Yay to you!!!

I’m so sorry that someone made a nasty comment about your meal presentation. I watch your videos because I’m so completely impressed with your constant food preservation along with 3 cooked meals per day and homeschooling. So I sure hope you never let other make you feel bad. You are a momma hero in my book. I’m 61 and have a 6 acre farm that I’m doing 95% alone. I’m still working on infrastructure, but I do have chickens and turkeys. I keep my 5 year old grandson, and I promise I couldn’t keep up with you and I’ll bet the commenter doesn’t do one tenth in a day that you do. You are a precious soul!

I, for one, APPRECIATE your non-fancy plating! I hate doing food videos/posts/photos for the very reason that people like to comment on how things "look." I am way more interested in how you are using the foods God has provided you and the creative way you mix and match. I guess maybe it's that mom-of-many lens that knows better than to concentrate on how things "look." I have enjoyed the videos so much! And I have a newfound appreciation for how much time and energy it took you to film these because I decided to do ONE day of meals for my channel, and it took so much work! Thank you for doing these - truly inspiring!

The food looks fabulous. I would be honored to eat those meals. The nutrition in the meals is great, the variety is wonderful and that you're cooking for so many mouths, 3 meals a day, within a budget, using what you have is amazing and inspiring to me. I wish I had done meals like what you're doing from the time my kids (now grown with their own families) were little. So much food waste and expense and frustration could have been saved over the years and I, my kids and family would have been healthier. I'm so thankful you're sharing this info. It is truly a blessing. Thank you

In participating in the challenge this year, I REALLY have gained an appreciation of just how much work it is to document each of the meals during this challenge. Also, shame on whoever criticized your plating ability! I cannot believe how much love and work you pour into all your cooking from scratch! And I think everything looks AMAZING! Don’t let them get you down! I wish my family would learn to enjoy soup as much as your family does. Your soups always look sooo delicious! And last, I just wanted to mention that the angle that you shot the closing of your video really made your green eyes POP, having they green paint in the background. BEAUTIFUL! I have green eyes too and I feel like I don’t see many other people with green eyes anymore. Have a great week.

We have a Country Living mill that we just love! We were fortunate enough to meet and spend time with the creator of the mill many years ago. Jack was an amazing man, a believer in Christ, and just an all around great guy. The mill is hand-powered, but you can also get a motor. I have the motor because of the volume of flour we make. If the power goes out, we can still make flour. Win-win!

You have a beautiful family. I think your meals look lovely. I’ve worked on canning a bunch of meals and good, but we have yet to use them much. Thanks for the inspiration and help

Seriously, your presentation is amazing! That’s why I stay away from other social media platforms. You are amazing and oh my goodness people! Love watching these videos as my mind wakes up to what I can be doing in my home. You have a gift and it keep on giving❤️

Thank you for sharing these meals, I enjoyed seeing how you cook the beef heart that was actually one of the high points for me

I'm adding blue corn to my azure favorites because it looks beautiful once cooked. how fun is that?! I'm glad to see you're not worried about your food presentation. Your family had food on the table and love all around, nothing else matters.

You did good. Love how you feed your family. And don't worry what people say about making it look appetizing, they are healthy eaters.

Everything looks so wonderful! You are so inspiring! I am expecting baby #6 and always trying to figure out how to stretch our food and fill all the bellies and you’ve given me some great ideas. What a blessing you are to your family, as they are to you! 💕

My 6 yr old loves all seafood but her absolute favorites are mussels in any form-canned or steamed, sardines, and pickled herring. She has also developed a liking to Indian food, sushi, and liver. She does like heart and tongue. Until I became a mom, I didn’t know others didn’t eat the heart and tongue🤷‍♀️ it was something I grew up eating. While I didn’t care for liver, now as an adult I do enjoy it once a month.

I grew up eating warm cornbread with warmed milk. So delicious for breakfast.

Thanks for the beef heart recipe. I wasn't sure what I would do with ours. BBQ sounds delicious!

Jessica, you are a much nicer person than I! (I know I should leave it at that, but I just can't.). What do they want you to do, garnish a toddler's plate with a sprig of mint or something? Your plates look just fine to me! You are feeding meals that are more nutritious to seven children, than most feed to a single child. And that is working around a ton of dietary obstacles. Your innovative meals never cease to amaze and impress me, and I'm sure I am part of a majority! Thank you so much for sharing and teaching us!

We too are using things up that we had from our garden and fruit orchard. Plus using things in our freezer. Take care all.

Let David experiment with your lemon powder from the freeze dryer to see how it would work in his biscotti. I love using freeze dried fruit instead of extracts in my baking

This is the first year I've followed you during the pantry challenge. I have challenged myself every February to do no grocery buying and just using what I already have stored. I always find it fun and useful also. Hopefully next year I can actually join in for both months.

We make our swiss steak on the stove with mushrooms and broth. We lightly flour / arrow root the steaks then add broth and mushrooms to the large cast iron skillet. Mom has always moved everything to a large pot and simmered it for 4 hours on the stove top. It is my favorite so, she makes it for my birthday every year...she is 80 and I am 54! This year, I made it for her on her birthday;) It's quick preparation and easy slow cooking---I put it in a crockpot and it was still very good. Mom agreed and she is a tough Pennsylvania Dutch woman from a 400 acre dairy farm...the middle of 7 children.
