Your hair is gorgeous and healthy looking! Happy for you and the growth of your garden... Mine hasn't been very productive but I changed things up so much this season and I'm kind of regretting it.. Anyway, happy belated anniversary! 🎉

Becky at @AcreHomestead has made quite a few of snacky stuff when she does the pantry challenge every year the beginning of each year and made snacks/treats so they didn’t go to the store to get any groceries. And I just found you but I think you may really enjoy watching her! Also, (I’ve got no experience with sourdough homemade creations), but maybe the kiddo(s) might like it as sourdough discard pancakes/waffles! So glad I found you! ❤

From what I can see from watching loads of these kinds of videos, I don’t think the larder stocking up is really a good way to save money. Often people stock up on things they don’t really like like lots of dried beans or pulses lentils etc… and never really use them. It’s a bit of a false economy. I find I save a lot more but only buying what I need and a bit of a stock of flour pasta but not much and I save a lot. I don’t live in the states and here these big hauls are not really a thing. I am shocked at the cost of some people’s grocery bills in the states. And as for Costco , it’s crazy to me. I know people fear there will be shortages and they should be prepared. But honestly how many people have stuff in the pantry for 12 months or more and they have had to keep rotating and force themselves to eat beans and rice just to use them up. I’d rather buy more produce and less storage items and enjoy what I eat. Sure can some tomatoes and pickles and make bread but you don’t need a huge pantry in my humble opinion. O loved with a pantry years ago and we wasted a lot of things. They either got spoiled, out of date or we didn’t really like it but we had loads of it , like millet… or vulgar wheat!!! See if that helps with saving money. Just get the basics and smaller amounts for a while.

I honestly don't understand how everyone says it's so much cheaper to make bread. I do make our own pretty often, but every time I hear someone say their recipe only costs 33 cents per loaf I just want to be like "Ma'am, I need to see your math." Because I buy flour and yeast in bulk, but mine still costs way more to make than the cheap loaves at the store. The last time I did the math, my homemade bread cost about $3 per loaf.
@nestledvalleyfarmhouse6207 Ай бұрын
Haha true. I know it's probably healthier than store bought but with the current season I'm in it's just more convenient to buy. I do try to make from scratch sometimes.
@ms.g1709 Ай бұрын
You made me curious, so I did the math on my bread making. For me, it was 1.68 for flour, 86 cents for the sugar, 22 cents for the yeast, and 59 cents for the oil. My recipe (scratchpantry sandwich bread, woo) makes two loaves, so it works out to $1.68 per loaf. There are a few options cheaper at the store, but most of them cost more. The bread I make now is a $1.51 less than the bread I used to buy. Thank you for persuading me to do the math. 😊 The only thing I can think of is that your local area has a higher cost of groceries than most others, or they're making sourdough. Sourdough is on my bucket list. ❤ Thank you for sharing!
@StephanieGiese Ай бұрын
@@ms.g1709 I do think our area may be higher than others. We are in central Florida, so many foods need to be shipped further to reach us. For example, a 3-pack of yeast at our Walmart is $1.88. which is 62 cents each. (I do buy my yeast and flour in bulk, but it is still more expensive than the prices most others list.)

I feel the same way about cooking from Scratch! Some things really are not worth it. Nobody talks about that. Just because it’s from scratch doesn’t mean it’s worth it. Also you could ask around to friends and family and swap. I have an Amish store near me with super cheap homemade bread so I buy that and I don’t have to make it!
@nestledvalleyfarmhouse6207 Ай бұрын
It's true. I try to be honest for sure. I love the taste of homemade tortillas and bread but I still buy it most of the time because I don't have the time to make it. I'll have to check for swapping with friends and family. Most people I know that do that sell for more than double the price of buying at the grocery store.

I just found your channel and can really relate to so much! We only have 3 kids but 2 of them do soccer and it can be very expensive. We use garage sales,thrift stores and for a years a nearby church had a bag sale for clothes. I ammin a similar situation, I am home with my 2 younger kids, homeschooling and can't really leave the house for work. Saving what we have and being responsible to mend and make things from scratch etc are my main goals. I appreciate you sharing goals , pillowcases make great nightgowns and summer shirt dresses! Find something online ,make a pattern out of paper bag and reuse the pattern! 😉♥️

I would love videos on how to sew basic things like girl dresses. As well as grocery hauls, meal plans, and cost broken down. We are a family of six. I was able to keep the price to 125 a week, but now it's hard to keep it under 180. Groceries include cleaning supplies, diapers, personal hygiene, and more when needed.

I love your channel :) what we have had to do is stop all extra curricular activities except church. I thought my kids would miss it but after a couple of weeks not having to run to so many activities my kids have gotten use to playing outside with each other and it has become so much less stressful. we do everything together now which has made us all closer as a family. I cant tell you how life changing this has been in a good way. :)

I want to go back to being home with my kids. I’m getting ready to have baby #5 and it’s costing more in gas to go take them to school and for sitters bc we live pretty far in the country. I’m to a point now where we both have cars and car payments and haven’t paid on them long enough to have anything towards trade in and we cannot transport all of our children in a car. I’m praying that God makes a way!
