Nothing wrong with abridged versions for kids, at all! I read an abridged version of Anne of Green Gables in not even two days when I was in second grade and absolutely fell in love with it. I still feel like Anne is a kindred spirit of mine. Later read some other abridged versions of Austen books and particularly loved Pride and Prejudice(that would've been fourth or maybe fifth grade and I remember staying up reading with a blanket stuffed by my door so I wouldn't get in trouble). Good introduction for a little girl, for sure! ❤

Congratulations on your consistent homemade bread routine! Such a wonderful thing to do for yourself and your family. I wish I could find an air fryer that was stanless steel rather than non-stick coated. 😢 I had one and tried to ignore the fact that it was non-stick and in the end I got rid of it because I couldn’t get past it and I wasn’t using it as a result. Adorable picnic basket and yay for a fantastic thrift shopping trip! 🎉

@lauramitchell6725 Ай бұрын

I don’t have an air fryer myself,but I think you can buy liners for the basket. ( I don’t know what the liners are made of though,does anyone know if you can cut a little parchment liner to put inside?)

Loved Finn laying in the shade - dogs are smart. I found a tulip shaped pitcher/vase thrifting too and was just thrilled! I gave away my air fryer when I got a Cuisinart toaster/fryer for Christmas but am not happy with the toasting part. Takes too long & can be like a cracker😟even after dialing down.

I own two air fryers (different sizes) and love them. Pros: doesn't heat up the kitchen in warm-weather months; fast; easy. Cons: Size. My kitchen is small and my fryers take up a lot of space. I have to store them on the floor of my pantry and haul them out every time I use them.

@jendyson6729 Ай бұрын

Your biscuits look fantastic! since I moved to the northeast from the south I feel like mine don't come out as good as they used to,lol. I know above the ground pools are not the prettiest thing but since you have a pretty flat area of lawn you might want to try it. Then you wouldn't have to throw away/reinvest in a new one every year. Our yard is not level at all and it took work to make it flat but every year the grandkids love swimming in our pool. And after getting all hot in the garden I use it a lot too! Just an idea. I always enjoy your videos thanks for making them while you are so busy!

I am an Anne fan and so glad to see your girls reading it, even the abridged form. The Sullivan AOGG film is such a classic and most true to the book. The Road to Avonlea tv series is wondeful for children. Have your kids ever read the All of a Kind Family book series by Sydney Taylor or the Betsy Tacy books by Maud Hart Lovelace? Wholesome, fun and heartwarming. Happy reading!

Green beans are good to rotate with tomato’s because you don’t want to put tomatoes in the same spot each year. Beans add nitrogen, which tomatoes take out. Green beans are also easy to grow as long as you don’t let pests eat the leaves.

All that to say, it's so good for my soul to sit down and see such lovely normalcy, it helps ground me. The extraordinary beauty of ordinary life.
