Does anyone else try to pick out their least favorite eggs from the coop to use first or is it just me?

It’s been SO long since I’ve posted! We are STILL displaced from the Toxic Mold that stole our home for us, but we are blessed to have a roof over our heads.

I’ve been feeling pretty under the weather these past few weeks. My lab work still shows high levels of mold in my system even a year later, so that could be the culprit. Anyways, I made some tea with Lemon, Anise Hippo, fresh Ginger, fresh Turmeric, dried Nettles and a tiny bit of raw honey once the cup. It’s delicious! For sure helped calm my stomach. We’ll see if it helps with the body inflammation.

I’ll try to be better about posting. Our Mold adventures are totally a different adventure of their own.

Gluten Free, Blueberry-Lemon and Banana-Nut Muffins. Always made with strictly organic ingredients and as much things from our little homestead as possible. ❤️

They didn’t make it 1 minute out of the oven before the kids and my hubby started to devour them. 😂 Soooo I guess I need to make more so I can actually take some pictures. 🤭

We have been fasting and abstaining from meats except for fish until Easter. Had we not been drawn to fast I honestly don’t know what I ever would have even noticed these fresh garbanzo beans/green chickpeas at the store the other day. Holy moly am I obsessed! They are so tender and delicious. I steamed them for about 6 mins and they are perfect! Now we need to figure out how to grow these babies. 💚

Hi guys. I apologize for being MIA… Times have been interesting. We are still living in an Air BnB. Unfortunately zero progress has been made with our mold problem.. We’ve been out of our house for over 4 months now. It’s super depressing not having our home, but we are doing the best we can. Thankfully we planted a lot of our plants in bags so we have been able to move them with us. ❤️ We are still homesteading as much as we can, though we are running back and forth between the two houses constantly. 😅 Currently working on some organic jam.
