My go to hack lately for making hard boiled eggs is
tossing them in the freezer for 10 or so minutes before boiling.

Shells just slide off when it’s time to peel!

Of course we were heading down the driveway on the way to the cattle auction this morning to see one of the steers leaning way over the fence and the post just a bobbin….

Quickest fix we could think of.

It worked and we got a new post put in tonight.

Never ends. I’m telling ya.

Looks like it might be ready by Christmas!

A kitchen hack to share incase you were never taught,

If I have something from dinner that stuck to the pan or pot, I’ll fill it up with water and a sq**rt of dawn and put it back on the stove to almost boil the water and everything will release from the pan as I use my wooden spoon to scrape it.

Let it cool down and wash.

Saves me lots of time scrubbing!

Chip approves of the new shelves.

One thing is for certain, if you think you have enough shelving and storage, add more 😂

The amount of things you acquire owning a farm that you may only use once a year, or every two or maybe never again but you don’t dare get rid of it 😅

Just a reminder,

Jiffy Muffins still slap.

Everything don’t have to be from scratch,

And we still use country crock,

cause we love that crap.

Happy Saturday Friendssss!

Make it a good one 💙

Sometimes I think people hear “family farm” and picture a farm that’s been passed down for generations.

But sometimes… you’re the first generation. Although this farm has been in the family for years, it was not an operating farm when we purchased it.

You’re the ones starting with what you have and figuring it out as you go.

You work jobs off the farm so you can afford to keep farming. You put your paycheck back into fence, feed, hay, equipment and cattle. You work before work, after work, weekends and whatever hours are left in between.

And some years, you wonder if all that work is actually getting you anywhere.

Then I came across a USDA statistic that really put it into perspective, only about 35% of beginning farm operations in their studies were still operating 10 years later.

That number hit a little different.

Because building a farm from the ground up is HARD.

We didn’t step into a finished operation with everything already figured out. We’re learning, growing, making mistakes, changing plans and slowly building something we hope lasts.

And maybe someday our boys will look at this place and call it the family farm without realizing just how many late nights, long days, off-farm jobs and “we’ll figure it out” moments went into making it one, although I’m pretty sure they are getting to that point!

Everybody talks about keeping the family farm going.

But somebody had to be the generation that started it.

And hopefully, we’re building something worth passing down.

We are so thankful for family and friends that have supported our small family farm, and although we sell out of beef and have long periods of nothing available, and even though we are no big operation, we appreciate the people who support us through the years ❤️ Hoping we are on the right path to another 5 years!
