I’m thinking while watching this, it would save time to cut the dough with a multipurpose scraper and serve square biscuits rather than punching out round biscuits. Roll dough once, divide dough, bake.

Very good point! I actually freeze these for breakfast sandwiches too, so that would make them stack better too! Thank you! 👏

I love how you don’t try to sound and be like every single other KZfaqr on here. Sometimes I have to turn videos off because everyone makes their voices sound the same and saying the same thing. Using the same obnoxious KZfaq music. Thanks for being real and natural! 😊

I’ve been a firm believer in meal prepping and big batch cooking. Currently we’re just the two of us.. retired, 70+yo couple. Those practices still make life easier even though there’s no need to cook a meal every night. We are good with eating leftovers. I’m enjoying your channel and hope to hear your birth announcement real soon. Susan

I also have a pantry that is full of all my go to recipe ingredients, as I don't own a car I have to prepare for winter days etc it's much easier to cook when you have the ingredients on hand, after so many years I can whip up dinner in 10mins prep and bung it in the oven. When I have my morning coffee I get the dough going and 1 hour later shape and after lunch in the oven, desserts I have a rotation of them, don't really need the recipes anymore. Sometimes I make a use what's in the fridge meal and they want it again but I really just threw leftovers together and it came out lol

Hi, thanks so much for sharing these.. your channel is great in helping me thunk of healthier options for my family! I was just wondering where you got these airtight extra large tubs for storing flour, rice etc. We live in a hot countrie and everything has to be stored very well! Thank you 😊

Hey just found your channel and am really enjoying it! I’m a fellow homeschool mama and cook all of our meals from scratch also as my husband has a food allergy and we have learned a lot about the toxins, etc. found in processed food. Great info and I look forward to learning more from you. I love your green apron! Did you make it or can you share where you bought it?

@elizabethsmith6952 7 ай бұрын

As a fellow homestead mom, how do you meal plan far in advance when it's a heavy harvest season? The end of the garden season is always a frantic bid to make and preserve whatever is going bad fastest.

@TheFromScratchFarmhouse 7 ай бұрын

Our meal plans are very seasonal, so they do account for using what’s in season, but also, we preserve a good amount of what we grow so I don’t always worry about using it before it goes bad. There are a lot of things we always use up as a side too. For example, we have cucumber and tomato salad several days each week during the summer. In the fall I’m doing a lot of cooked squash and roasted root veggies. This doesn’t change up my meal plan much since it’s just the side that I may be swapping. Hope that makes sense!

@Domesticdivaof7 7 ай бұрын

Hello! Loved the video and your kitchen is beautiful!! Can I ask where your white flour storage bins are from? I need new dry goods storage for in the kitchen, I have the large food safe totes but I need something a bit smaller for the cabinets. They look airtight too, which is a huge bonus!

@TheFromScratchFarmhouse 7 ай бұрын

Thank you! They are from Ikea but unfortunately they don’t make the exact ones anymore. They might have something similar though!

I’m actually not in the kitchen that much. That’s the beauty of this system. 😉 Most days it’s just that one hour in the morning where I get a bunch done. In the summer that changes a bit with canning and other preserving projects, but we also don’t do school then so it works out.

I can't permit myself the luxury to abandon my 9 to 5 job far away, in order to stay home and to cook from the scratch. We will live on 1 salary then, which will be beyond the minimum salary per person. Today "stay at home mom" is not a life path choice anymore. It is a choice to starve and embrace poverty.

@TheFromScratchFarmhouse 2 ай бұрын

Hm. Odd comment. I haven’t worked outside the home since my second child was born and we are definitely not starving. 👀 I know MANY thousands of women who have done the same without ever having to “embrace poverty.” Yes, in order to do this your spouse has to have a good paying job and you certainly have to live within your means doing things like cooking instead of take out, but still… that’s not poverty.

@dawnmorandin541 Ай бұрын

@@TheFromScratchFarmhouse I find people don't want to give up certain things like a new car, trucks, boats etc vacations, coffee and take out meals, hair salons, nails and buying pre made food so that they can stay home and raise their own children instead of paying for child care and spending 2 hours a day as a family, I stayed home and gave up all the stuff until they were older, we had a good time and my kids remember all the fun we had not the stuff we bought or didn't buy, also we lived in a small house not a mansion and lived within our means. The thrift store was a great help with all the kids toys and clothes.

@beccam507 Ай бұрын

We've lived on my husband's salary since my kids were born. We do a lot from scratch and live a fairly humble lifestyle, but we are not poverty stricken and we are comfortable. Growing up, my dad made less comparatively then my husband does, and we were still comfortable, but frugal. We didn't go on vacation, just took day trips etc but I never felt deprived. I loved my childhood and I loved having my mom home with us.
