We did it... we survived the holidays! 🥳 I love Christmas, but let's be honest, it can be little stressful, too. All the shopping, present wrapping, cooking, special Christmas morning breakfasts, extra laundry, fighting kids, cookie baking, cleaning, stomach flu ​🤢, traveling, and late nights. It's a lot.
I grew up eating toaster strudels and hamburger helper, just like you. I never put any thought into the food I was eating - I just made sure it was low fat. Then the question "why is everyone so sick?" led us to where we are today. I spent countless hours reading books, researching on the internet, and filtering through a mountain of overwhelming information. I was finally able to put all the pieces together and wrap my brain around what you eat matters.
Before I had kids, I couldn't understand why moms would be excited for their kids to go back to school. Didn't moms love spending every waking minute with their kids?! Fast forward 12 years & 3 kids later.... I totally get it now.
One of the hardest questions I get asked is "How can you eat the animals you raise?" As an animal lover, this is the hardest part about what we do. I know animal welfare is important to you, and that's why I want to address it today.
Don't you love it when you get home from vacation and there's nothing to eat? That was us yesterday... We just got back from the lake and I didn't know what to make for supper. The fridge was empty and all the meat was frozen. And of course everyone was "starving".....
I'm always excited for summer because I'm delusional and think we won't be as busy as normal, but I quickly realize we're busier than ever. Running to sporting events every night, keeping up with the never ending piles of laundry and dirty kitchen floors, and trying to sneak away to the lake... It's exhausting to keep up with it all. If your schedule is anything like ours, you're probably not home enough to drink as much raw milk as you normally do.
Served over steak, this garlic mushroom cream sauce will take your steak to the next level - guaranteed.
One of my biggest pet peeves is how much candy and junk food our kids get these days. We know how harmful artificial dyes, additives, and sugar are for our kids, yet it's everywhere - especially the concession stands. It's become so normal for my kids to get "a treat" after every game - even tho I know better. I still want my kids to enjoy treats, but I don't want all the dyes and additives that go with it.
Have you struggled to find natural skincare products that actually work and don't break the bank? You had good intentions with that 7 step skincare line you bought. But now it sits in your cupboard because you don't have the energy to stay awake to get all 7 steps on your face, right? I've got a better idea. I'm going to show you how to make your own whipped tallow body butter.
The two things all of our customers have in common (myself included) is: 1) We all grew up on the Standard American Diet. -and- 2) We're all trying to figure out how to get back to eating real, nourishing food - the way God intended. Some of it comes easy, but some of it takes effort to learn how to do new things - like getting rid of seed oils and cooking with traditional fats such as beef tallow instead.
I've got the most amazing sourdough waffle recipe for you today. We were planning our Easter brunch menu and these are a family fav so I wanted to share them with you! Read on for the recipe.
I can't believe Christmas is here! Are you ready?! We'll be busy celebrating with family over the next few days. All the gatherings = all the food. While I love a classic Christmas meal, I don't need 4 of them in a row. We decided to skip the huge meal for my family Christmas and keep things simple (so we don't all have to wear sweatpants!) Instead, we're having hot sandwiches and appetizers.
