Living Traditions Homestead is all about living a simple and sustainable way of life. We believe the world has gotten too “busy” and that people are missing out on many of the true blessings this world has to offer. We started as a small urban homestead in Gilbert, AZ and after the city grew up around us, decided it was time leave corporate America and take a big leap of faith by moving our family to the Missouri Ozarks.
We put out new videos every week! We hope you will become part of our homestead family by subscribing to our channel and watching as we give up the rat race and live simpler, more fulfilling life in the country.

I was baptised at 7 but my home life was difficult and I strayed as a teen. I have struggled with doubts ever since. I have been praying and prayed over time and time again with every reason to be closer in my faith yet I feel farther and farther and farther away. My life and usefulness wasting away the older I get (51). Went back to church 25 years ago stopped during the pandemic due to immunosuppression from transplant drugs. My life has been full of blessings yet my soul is in a constant battle. I know my personality and history and mental health make me inclined to distrust and fear of intimacy. It will take a miracle for me to overcome. My hope is withering as there are so many reasons for me to blfeel sold out yet I am plagued by an evil voice of "but what abouts?"

I definitely want to try this as I still have squash coming out of the garden (I live in the south so it’s 60-70’s for the highs today) and simply LOVE that my noodles are so easily made homegrown now on keto. I also want to make use of the many batches of pesto I’ve been able to make this year as my basil tried to turn into a tree from my GreenStalk and reached over to my garden bed next to it! 😮 I didn’t keep up with cutting it back enough I guess. I also like to make a zoodle ramen soup with my zoodles as well and often use bone broth (or bullion) and add a can of sardines w/Louisiana hot sauce and call it lunch. So good! I top it with homegrown green onions too and maybe some cilantro (which is now finally growing here as it was too hot before now). It’s also good with chicken or leftover turkey too.

for future catastrophes, using a rubber band or plumbers tape, you can mend a freshly split stem like that by timing the top and bringing the two parts back together binding the split with the tape or band. The cambian layer will grow back together if you catch it before it starts to scab over. Costco has real Parmigiano Reggiano cheese for a great price! I found the Konjac noodles at Costco so I am going to try them with the Raos spaghetti sauce I buy, they had a tasting of them when I was there and they were good as a substitute for pasta.
