The Hitch Inn is dedicated to empowering families through education on homeschooling, homemaking, and homesteading from a reformed Christian perspective. We aim to provide information and inspiring content that nurtures strong families, cultivates self-sufficiency, and fosters a deep sense of Christian community.
In Finland they have excellent public schools that even the rich families go to the same school the working class families go to because there are no for profit schools. Public achools are not default evil, but you do you.
I’m not in Finland, but unless the public schools in Finland are top to bottom Christian- and are teaching and training the child that all of Christ is for all of life, then they are not providing a Christian education. Hope that clears things up, Christ is Lord.
Thank you so much for this. The questions "Is this a blessing or a curse?" and "Does this serve my people well?" are ones I shall certainly use going forwards. Sending much respect from Scotland!
Holy Moley! Girl, you Preach! Truly convicting. Thanks for sharing. I love it. We've been homeschooling for 4 yrs now. I share your feminist past experience. Now, I wouldn't go back to that. I love being with my child.
Dang Girl…. You didn’t pull any punches…..& I am here for it! 🙋♀️new subscriber. Love your honesty! Totally cracked me up how you refer to your son’s time in public school as his ‘ public school prison pipeline’ 😂
Thank you for sharing this. I feel like our stories are so similar. I would love to talk with you a bit more than just a quick comment. I’m in my 4th year of homeschooling and I’m finding so many issues with what I’ve been doing. I was looking for a change and God put your video in my feed. His providence will never cease to amaze me.
You are welcome to email me, Lynn.hitchens@gmail.com - I’d absolutely be willing to connect with you to help encourage you further! The Lord provides us with community for exactly this reason. 💕
I’m not sure, I’ve never had to buy them but I’m sure if you searched their item catalog online you could find them, but price compare off Amazon because you may find a better price elsewhere.
You need cream to make butter. My local raw milk farmer will save cream if someone asks because they want to make butter. Maybe a local dairy will do the same for you.
A suggestion for your beef liver (I'm in the same boat as you), what you can do is cook the beef liver, dehydrate it, grind it up into powder then add the powder it to chili, spaghetti sauce, soups, meat loaf, hamburgers, anywhere you can hide it. Add a few tablespoon at a time. Works for me cause I HATE liver of any kind.
Oh, making the butter. You have to skim the cream off the top of the milk (let it sit overnight) and make the butter with just the heavy cream only. I've been making it for years. When it looks like whip cream, just let it keep going, it will make butter after a few mins.. :)
Very good suggestions, thank you! Beef liver makes me turn bright green, lol, but I know how good it is for us. I have been buying heavy cream from the grocery store to make butter on limited occasions but I was hoping to use raw milk instead so that’s a good idea! I can pour the gallons into a pot, refrigerate the pot, and skim off the top. 💕
@@TheHitchInn If you have any gallon jars, they work very well. I'm 63 and grew up doing these things. Do you have somewhere to buy raw milk? A farm nearby?
I’ve had fairly good luck getting what I needed, sometimes I have to bump up to a bigger bulk size though. Like if I need a 25 pound bag of flour, that’ll go out of stock but the 50 pound won’t. I wish I had a local bulk food store I could support like an Amish or Mennonite one.
@@TheHitchInn I totally agree. I also do not live near and Amish or Mennonite store. States away, maybe. It must be where we are in the rotation for Azure.... Like we are the end of the line? I seem to experience more out of stock totally.
I do that with my large Tide bottles from Costco, and napkins. I like to write the dates on packaging to see how long it lasts. 😎 did they refund you on tomatoes?
Hi. I bought my first small steer last spring. I bought that same grinder to use on my 30 year old Kitchen Aid. My 1st time grinding about 10 pounds and it did great! It does lots of things. I only used the large , made hamburgers the next day and they were great. I saw no need to put through more than once! I left some fat as you did wanted to be close to an 80/20. The rest went into a scrap bag for next batch of tallow.
My facebook deletion is still on pending, as you said they do not make it easy for us. I quit with all my other accounts which I do not use often. Notification alerts made me anxious, now I feel kind of relief. I use to post a lot of 'second opinion' content on facebook during pandemic and I notice how small number of people actually reacted, positively or negatively...there was not reaction at all...We can be happier without virtual friends.
