When the weather cools, I bake. Who am I kidding, I bake in triple digits, but when it cools I bake a little more and it just feels that as the season starts to move towards fall we know that means everything with sugar and spice is nice. Pumpkin spice, cinnamon, brown sugar in a little of this and a little of that. I tend to use only butter or lard for my baking. You will NEVER catch me using vegetable oil. I don’t personally like the flavor of olive oil in baking. Well, as the baking season ramps up I thought I would share my FAVORITE tool for straining rendered lard. I double pour the lard through this. Faster than a coffee finer, cleaner strain than a cheesecloth. I found mine at an Asian Market, but I found the same one on Amazon and have linked it.
*I take hot rendered lard in a ladle and pour into my straining spoon which is set over a glass pitcher, but you can use a glass mason jar. Once all ladled in from the crockpot I then take the glass jar and pour it over the strainer spoon a second time into the container I’m keeping the lard in. Quick. Simple. Easy clean up. Efficient. What’s not to love?

My older daughters attended an event. They brought home a flyer that read:

“On the darkest of days when I feel inadequate, unloved, and unworthy, I remember whose daughter I am and I straighten my crown.”

We all get busy. That’s just life. When we’re single we can easily skip a meal when we’re busy or just have a cup of bone broth or a good quick bar on the go. That’s not the case with kids. Kids NEED nutritional and filling meals. I also believe families should be raised around the table and in the kitchen. Well, with all kids in multiple fall sports dinner time is becoming rushed. We could eat out (which we do sometimes), we could grab fast food (which we do sometimes), we could eat insanely late (which happens), or I could plan ahead to have dinner ready when we get home around 7:30pm from practices.

I wanted to get a picture of it all done, but the kids devoured it before I got in the house as I was out feeding the animals and putting them up for the night.

Crockpot Meishan meatloaf. I’ve never cooked meatloaf in the crockpot and was really nervous to how it would turn out. I will be doing it again for sure. Take your normal meatloaf recipe and shape it in the crockpot and cook on high for 4-6 hours. We did 3 lbs of Meishan ground and served with black rice and sourdough brioche buns. If you don’t know about black rice I encourage you to start looking that up. I topped ours with a tomato sauce. Perfectly moist and cooked.

To all you canners and growers out there this wknd we bought some pickled green tomatoes at the farmer’s market. Oh wowza, they are AMAZING. I like them a billion times more than pickles and I LOVE pickles. I don’t have her recipe or even her business name as it wasn’t on the labels and I didn’t pay attention to if it was displayed. I highly encourage you to give them a go if you like pickles. I bought a few of her goodies and all were amazing, this was the best for me and the most unique as I’ve never seen them before.

We are a homeschool family. We weren’t always that way. I NEVER in a million years thought I would be a good teacher for my kids. We put our kids in private school and we had AMAZING teachers. One became one of my closest friends. I had no doubt that my kids were safe, well educated, and loved. They made their best friends in school and participated in all the wonderful activities like school plays, fields trips, musical performances and so on. Then things changed. I started homeschooling based on my kids needs. My son had a private teacher and I watched him soar. I realized they can’t all have the same curriculum and way of learning. We eventually came to love our way of life as we worked out the kinks. I realized I get to see my kids for the entire day and watch them learn and grow. It was never supposed to be this way. I was never supposed to be there teacher. It was never the job I wanted, but it’s now the job I love that I never knew I wanted. I went to some conventions and we did our best to be the best for our kids. At this convention they stated a Harvard study that says children can get through K-12th grade in 4 years (that’s based on public & private required education). I saw another study that said more homeschoolers are admitted into Ivy league schools than any other group of applicants. For now this is the journey that works for us. We’re blessed to be able to do this with our children. I don’t know if it will always be our journey, but it’s the path we are on now.
Anyhow, in that journey I have attended a few events. They were a game changer! Today they posted this. This is for all my homeschool followers. The link is below and this worked for us. Only 1 is sold out as of a few minutes ago.

Now, you might think what does the Constitution have to do with farming…EVERYTHING. I wouldn’t have the rights I do without history and these irreplaceable documents. None of us would.

Thank you to the very dishonest and some could even say cowardly person that hit my car. It’s called a hit & run and it’s illegal.

It’s always great to have nice things ruined by others 🤦‍♀️😡
