I love were you are talking about canning your own tomatoes but can't because your so busy. This is actually SO important to talk about. So many mothers feel like they need to do it all or they are less then...it is ok to go ahead and buy something premade (like the tomato sauce you are talking about) and remember that this is a season of your life. It will change ❤️

If you don't have time to preserve your tomatoes, you can core the top and score the bottom and stick them in the freezer for later! It saves you having to blanch them because the peels come right off once they thaw a little. It was a game changer for me last year!

I have so much more admiration for mother as I watch this channel. She made everything from scratch. I dont know how she did it.

OMG I was holding my breath for Theo not getting his head hit. His sweet little blue eyes where watching everything.

I just like watching your channel period. So wholesome and inspiring. It’s amazing how much real food you can afford to buy when you stop buying processed foods.

I prefer more laid-back blogs like this one. It shows me that you're "normal!" And yes, I always get ideas of what to incorporate into my kitchen based on what others are buying. I really enjoy watching Azure Standard hauls all over KZfaq because there are so many products to consider! Thank you!

I’ve learned so much about nutrition, healthy eating and alkaline eating from you. I think people assume that eating meat and drinking milk are bad for you ...but if you are getting those items from a source that hasn’t been genetically modified🤨🤨🤨you’re fine. Your children look happy and healthy and that’s fantastic. Thank you!

I'm listening to this as I finish up day 2 of canning tomatoes. 😄 It's a ton of work, and I'm in a season of motherhood where it works, but that can change in an instant. There is ZERO shame in doing what works for your family. Good job being a wise steward of your time and energy!

I love Theo “watching” us over your back when you were organizing the freezer. What a sweet pea…reminds me of my sling/backpack days with my little ones🥰

The baby is so sweet, can’t believe with all your moving he just fell asleep content and cozy

Yes I love your grocery hauls, please do more of them! I especially love to see your organization

I love these kind of videos. As a mom of 8, I love seeing what other large families do.

Wow! I am blown away again by your positive attitude even when your clearly struggling a bit to get your kitchen up to stock, you’re still maintaining such a good attitude. Love that you try so hard to keep your meals as healthy as you can and that baby of yours is absolutely adorable. Good job 👏🏼

I would be interested to hear why Lisa refrigerates her potatoes, onions, and garlic!

I love seeing Baby peeking out 😍😍 So cute 🥰 thanks for sharing your grocery haul!

I use plain Greek yogurt in place of sour cream. I can’t taste a difference. I was surprised you put your potatoes and onions in the fridge. I keep those separate out of the fridge. I’ve found that if I keep the onions in a paper grocery bag with a handle and hang it on my side door because it’s a cool area without a lot of light. They keep a lot longer.

This is my kind of networking! I’m not a social anything but channels like this teach me so much! I get tips and ideas from the channels’ hosts as well as ideas from subscribers’ comments! We’re never too old to learn! And if we were all in a room together you better believe we’d be sharing thoughts and ideas with each other! I don’t know how you do it all but I love watching and learning! I just love your pantry and that beautiful apron hanging in the doorway! A big whoop-whoop 🙌🏻🙌🏻for saving the snow in the freezer! I love how kids think! 💕👍🏻🥰

I so enjoy your videos. We have eight children and homeschool, and I agree, its nice to see how someone else organizes for a large family, what meals they're having that week, etc. Just keeps the creativity flowing😊

I love seeing these videos because it makes me feel as if everything does not have to perfect.That not everything has to be organic.That the overall goal is to do the best we can.Thanks Lisa.

I really enjoyed watching this and always knew my mother was an extremely organized person almost down to OCD but as I was growing up my mom worked full time my dad worked full-time and formed part-time with my grandpa. All three of us kids were born within 4 years, I was the oldest so I have memories of some of these that my sister and my brother don't. Mom didn't make Kiefer or bread but she did make cottage cheese and butter for us. She canned quite a lot. This would have been before the days of microwaves and things to thaw or anything like that. We grew a pretty good size garden. Main things we can were tomatoes green beans corn (because the freezer was full of meat) and fruit normally peaches were the high priority but anything else they could get their hands on there was an old apple orchard in the back of the farm that hadn't really been taken care of for years so we got a lot of applesauce from that. I do remember my mom and my grandma's even my aunt getting together for work days to can some of these basic vegetables. It wasn't just a fun day for us kids I remember I was put to work washing canning jars my one grandma would pack Green being jars because she could always get more in a jar of the mom ever could. Good memories but if you're close to your family maybe you could have a work day type thing to help you out occasionally. Everyone would bring a little food it would be like a potluck type deal to feed everyone at lunch and sometimes even at supper time. Bigger kids would watch littler ones and kind of supervise until some of the older kids were able to help or tried to help. Tried to have picking done prior so it was just snapping beans and that kind of stuff. Was amazing and fun and got a lot of things done on those days. I'm sure it helped everyone out a lot everyone usually took some canned goods home. One Grandma usually came back the next day to make sure things went in and out of the canner as they were supposed to for any leftovers that didn't get done in the first day. Just a good memory I'm sorry I talked so long and I thought that maybe you and your sister could do or maybe a friend I don't know what's available. Really enjoy your videos newer subscriber and you're definitely a keeper.

Lol love it the vacuum cleaner oh my that's a awesome tip! That Baby is a real little trooper just happy as a clam!

Yes I love seeing what "healthy" people buy from the store🙂

I don’t grow tons of tomatoes because of where I live. Also canning supplies are hard/very expensive to come by. For those reasons I didn’t can any tomatoes last year. I put some in the freezer, which worked great (didn’t even decore them). But freezer space is precious. I also dehydrated sliced tomatoes, which for me is probably the way to go. I can turn them into a powder and add to stews and sauces or rehydrate and blend with an immersion blender before adding. Of course not as convenient as canned, but tasty and fairly easy. Also, if you have a decent size dehydrator it’s pretty quick and easy to preserve this way - and it stores in a smaller space. 😊

That sweet baby…he is always tied to you and always happy and calm…I love this so much!! I wish more Mommas knew to keep their babies with them like you do!! ♥️ Ps…your pantry is just so beautiful.💜

Just a thought if you aren’t picky about sour cream, and need to use up milk.... we use yogurt in place of sour cream for everything, tacos and recipes. :)

II know this is 2 years ago, but I like these types of videos, and wish you would do more organization and food shopping videos. Pantry clean out, as well as, freezer/fridge ones too. Enjoyed watching this. Thank you and God bless.

Love that you are so honest about what you buy and that you share that there are seasons to do lots of things but not all the things. Have really enjoyed your videos.

Lisa, you will laugh. I am 77 years old. Not in good health. No babies here, or garden, or home school. But your videos are peaceful, pleasant, interesting content. I enjoy learning how you do things from scrstch. I enjoy watching the renovations, emphasis on watching. We did do some of that in our younger years, so I like watching better. We are somewhat isolated and so your videos are like a visit with a friend. You are doing far more than you know. I am way beyond your target audience but have become quite a fan. Hugs to you and all of yours.

Your videos are real. I love your genuine deminor. Typically I do not watch You Tube videos. I find to many are just pretend. There seems to be television vibes with most. Our family does not watch television shows. They are of no benefit to us. You have a way of inspiring in a very humbled true way. Thank you for keeping it real.

I make it a habit the day before I go grocery shopping to clean out my fridge and it helps to see what I have and don't have. Love this video!!💕

I enjoy this type of video - it makes me feel real!! Haha! It was so much fun watching your baby on your back. So precious!!

I love watch when I saw potatoes in the fridge I wondered why? I’ve always heard cool dark place. I researched and found this.Potatoes should be kept somewhere cool and dry but not in the fridge. This is because putting potatoes in the fridge can increase the amount of sugar they contain, this could lead to higher acrylamide levels when the potatoes are roasted, baked or fried at high temperatures.

I love not just seeing you cooking, I adore seeing what you buy & how your mind works - some folk need lists, you don’t, it’s a wonder to watch!

Yes, like you I enjoy seeing what others buy and where and how they store it-thanks for sharing!

I remember my days of baby wearing and using my own Ergo carrier…..was anyone else waiting to see that beautiful baby noggin smack against the door knob or inside of the freezer? I can remember so many instances of misjudging depth and the baby was being bumped into the counters, doors and whatnot. Memories!!!! 😉

I enjoy seeing how other moms shop, clean, organize & plan meals. It really helps and honestly I need inspiration! Thank you Lisa!

Hoovering the fridge. I LOVE this! I am soooooo doing that next time. 😀

I think I’m nosy, so I love seeing what other families are grocery shopping for 😅

I love seeing where people put things. When I babysat, I would legit make a chart of the ladies kitchen. I would ask jem wuestiobs as well. I also cleaned their homes so I knew where everything was but o eoukd sill ask them. I was a college student and didn't even have a kitchen.

I really enjoyed this video! It shows a natural kitchen, not so flashy, some dirt and love, and just simple basics. Love it! Gave me some ideas on what I need to get next to stock up my fridge and pantry.

You are an amazing young lady I love watching you your baby is so precious I wish I had your talent and energy

I highly recommend roasting the beef bones before making the broth. It ups the flavor 1000%.

If your pantry still looks good after a few months…than you’ve found exactly what works for you and your family!! Even the most organized person can have a mess on their hands if they don’t find a system that works (for everyone that is eating and helping out groceries away). Well done🥇

I’m so encouraged after seeing your video! I have a small kitchen and pantry. I also have a pantry in my laundry room. I’ve been trying to figure out what to store in each pantry. You’ve made me see that although my spaces are small I can still organize them to suit my needs! Thank you!

I love this kind of videos! Food hauls are always interesting to me and I liked that you showed how and where you stored everything.

I love this type of video! Everyone has to do this, and it is insightful to watch others. Thank you.

This was lovely, thank you Lisa

I've been ordering from Fed from the farm for over a year now, I love them.

That baby, can’t help being the star of the vlog❤️❤️❤️❤️🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻👊🏻

I keep onions, garlic, potatoes and unwashed eggs all in the pantry. There’s no way it would fit in my fridge!! Love the content, as always !!

😀 So cute that little guy on your back swinging back and forth as mom does her thing!! Made me giggle to watch him. You are a great mom and home maker. Keep inspiring the world my dear !!

Love watching your casual videos and farm chores videos too! Just made my first sourdough loaves from your no knead recipe! Thank you for sharing

I learn so much about different foods and how they can be used from watching videos like this. I also appreciate seeing the messy fridges and pantries that aren’t Pinterest perfect albeit, those are beautiful and something I try to attain, they aren’t always a reflection of real life. Thank you.

Yes, I love these relaxed hang out videos. May God bless you and yours!

I’ve NEVER thought to use the vacuum attachment to clean out the drawers in the refrigerator!! Thanks for that cool tip!

Yes I enjoyed the Casual everyday life video

I love your grocery haul and fridge, freezer, and pantry videos! I get lots of great ideas from them. I live in Upstate NY and ordered meat from Fed from the Farm after watching one of your videos. Great family farm!!

Thank You, I enjoy seeing how wonderfully you care for your family. I really enjoy the cooking videos too.

Now that you’ve vacuumed your veggie & cheese drawer I never thought to do that. I will start vacuuming it like that also😅 saves the hassle of dumping it in the sink or using a rag. Thanks for that!

The real treat in the video was getting a look at the tiny face repeatedly.

One of my favorite videos of yours!! ❤️ I think it wasn't as much seeing what you all bought but the authenticity. I've seen you have home-canned jams but buy tomatoes so I liked your explanation. I mean you're only human. :) I've realized with food things I do what I enjoy and what saves us the most money/tastes the best, but I can't beat myself up over not doing all.the.things especially in the seasons of life where it's harder to do it all. Another mom of many vlogger seems to do everything but it's refreshing to see store bought items there too (and what she chooses to make and not make as well!). Just this week I had to remember I'm trying to do everything including taking care of a baby+2 other kiddos in less than 12 hrs (since she has been wanting us to hold her to sleep at night and most naps, not feeling well). I mean I'm not going to look back at life and be upset my floors weren't swept more, but I would be upset if I didn't squeeze my baby as much as I could while she still wants me to! I also loved your meat explanations for needing fast and/or easy meals so ground meat and chicken breasts is the way to go! Would love to see more on kefir recipes and when you use what flours more (the bread flour vs grinding your own vs wheat vs einkorn, in your family's own recipes especially) as well as the cooking vinegars and oils you had there, and the date lady stuff(going to place an order soon!!) and what kinds of snacks you buy. Thank you for all your wonderful content!! You have inspired so many homemakers and moms with your cooking and lifestyle! I know we are all eating so much better because of you. Thank you for using your gifting not only in your home but for all of us. 🙏❤️

You always brighten my day. Many items in your home I also collect. I pray for your family and enjoy your daily life on a farm. Not able to have children I appreciate seeing yours. You inspire me to get up and do more. We are retired now and I spend time in my yard and garden. Thanks for all you do. Deborah

I would love to hear how you manage your grocery budget while keeping your pantry stocked with high quality food!

Looks great your pantry. I'm looking forward to the next video love following along

I love how you organize your whole house! The heart of you’re home is lovingly full!!❤️❤️

It was particularly interesting to see what canned/jarred tomato products you use when you are not preparing your own from scratch. Growing children means a lot of food is needed.

Yes I enjoy watching. You definitely made me remember something’s I forgot lol on my grocery order this week lol.

Haha the baby watching and then occasionally smile makes me miss the baby days lol so cute!!!

I LOVE LOVED your sons snow balls bag in the freezer!!!! That scene made me bust laughing because its such a mom moment that I can relate to 100%

I loved this video and always enjoy when you share your grocery hauls and kitchen/pantry organisation. This is one of my favourite types of videos you make :) Have you ever stored your onions, garlic and potatoes in your pantry? If you go through them regularly, you should give it a try! Might be a good way to free up some space in your fridge :)

These are some of my favorite videos from you! ❤️ God bless you Lisa, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might

Me too I like seeing were ppl keep things and what they buy, I'm always looking for new things to share with my family. I loved your video☺️

Interesting you put onions and potatoes in fridge. It changes the starch in potatoes and onions absorb odors. My mum told me this but I researched it as well.

It’s just my husband and myself, however, I enjoy your grocery shopping. Learning about healthy foods! Never to old to learn! Thanks, Lisa❤️

This is my favorite kind of video and I'd love it if you'd do more of them. I discovered Thrive through you almost two years ago now and love, love buying groceries from them. I have several things that are my favorites from there. Azure is next for us so yes--do share more of these types of videos when you can.

Your baby is so sweet and adorable 💕 not to mention, he's a good baby. Not fussy at all! Love watching your videos 🙏

Delete if not allowed. Becky on Acre Homestead makes sour cream and powdered sugar, brown sugar all kinds of pantry items. Awesome video.

I just subscribed and look forward to watching your video's. Have a blessed day. 👍❤

I love it when you do a grocery haul. Frig, freeze and pantry tour so cool to see too.

I love these videos and your pantry is wonderful I don't have one and would be thrilled to have one like yours!

Love the “unseen” as that’s what people “live in” the most!!!

I enjoy your videos so much Lisa! I think it is so neat that you and your sister help each other out so much:-)

Love love love your tips and that you share your life with all of us! Thank you!

That sweet little face. 😍 How can I concentrate on what your saying.

you are the pro on all of this (I'm serious, you have taught me so much). I do not refrigerate my eggs, potatoes (white & sweet), garlic or onions. Just trying to help you create more space in your fridge. Thanks for another very relaxing post & allowing us to enjoy your latest 'addition'.

Love watching what others buy (lots of product info that way), and how it is stored. Always looking for fresh, efficient ideas. I think your kitchen is well and pleasingly organized!

It's so easy to make your own granola!!!!! 3 cups of of those rolled oats, 1/2 cup oil of choice, 1/2 cup sweetener(honey, or maple syrup), some seeds and or nuts of choice, Chia or hemp seeds your choice if any and bake for 30 to 40 minutes on a cookie sheet. Customize how you like. Also always add vanilla and cinnamon! And pinch of salt!

Great video! I had my husband build shelves so we could store extra pantry items in my small house with 4 kids.

Loved this casual video! The more casual, the better for me!

I enjoyed this video. As well as all of your videos.

Take us along on another grocery haul. Thanks!😊💙💟❤️

I love grocery hauls and the organization because the way you do it we don't have to go buy a grand worth of acrylic bins and drawers lol

Yaaaaaay, I’m glad to see King Arthur’s wheat flour! That’s what I use for baking my honey wheat bread!

Just watching the baby…. Did you say something? So sweet!!!

Thanks, I really appreciated seeing this video. It helped reconfirm some things I already do, and gave me some new things to think about.

Seriously you are the definition of a hero!

Tomatoes are so easy It was one of the 1st things I learned to do canning with

Loved watching, thank you.

I love watching you!!

I enjoyed this video! I think it's interesting seeing how different people do things and buy different things. Like you said, it gives me ideas as well.
