Greetings! I'm Cathy, a woman prepsteading in Minnesota.
It can be challenging, but I grow and preserve what I am able to with limited space, time, and resources, and DIY a lot of projects. I cook, eat, and preserve a mostly paleo diet.
Through all of this, there is hope-that you can live a more self-reliant lifestyle in your later years, that prepping isn't just about rice and beans, and that you are capable of so much more than you think!
Music is also a large part of my life. Praise and worship is my genre-not only is it my heart, but it has been a spiritual staple for me as a single mom. It sustains me through challenging times…even homesteading. To separate that out or put music in a different box (or channel) is just not possible for me. Stay tuned for music videos!
Please join me, encourage me, and hope with me. (Isaiah 40:31)
That’s exactly why I do what you are doing cracking the eggs also the reason why I never buy brown eggs. They are notorious for this. You can throw three away out of twelve.
Thank you soooooo much. Ive got three big beds and was wondering how much to cut them back....or down. Also when to put the straw over them. Once again thanks bunches. Ray from Ohio
😂😂😂 I love it, my mom had a pot, that size, with no handle! Used to ask her, many times, why do you use it? Her reply was I like it! Now that she's passed away, I'm using the same pot!!😂❤
Yes. At those temps, starting and letting it run every 4 hours makes a huge difference. It also needs to run for at least 20 minutes to recharge the battery (gets low from the cold) and get the engine oil back to normal thinness.
@@northstarprepsteader I've used nails for this purpose for decades. They work just fine. You can also use 3M Command hooks mounted upside-down. Many ways to skin this cat. Just offering an alternative that isn't so labor intensive.
Thanks for the video! I haven't grown green beans in 20+ years. My cowpeas/purple hull black eyes are doing great even though didnt use innoculant. But my organic Tendergreen bush beans did ok, but where rather pale green, then got leaf spot😢. I wonder if using anti bacterial dish soap mixture would work? Not from Rare Seeds. Guess pig gets some greens for lunch. I wonder if watering them everyday is too much in Florida summer.
Suggestion for adding a raised bed in a lawn area. I’ve done the following many times with great results. After determining where I’m going to put the raised bed, I dig the area where the bed edges will be only to make the bed level. I then put down a couple layers of carboard with all plastic materials removed. I then fill the bed with the soil median and plant as desired. I seldom till soil as it won’t get rid of seeds. But the carboard will smother out existing plants and prevent seeds from germinating until the carboard rots away and by that time, your generally in good shape.
You could also roast those tomatoes, then can them which will replace your canned tomatoes from the store. Last year, I canned 24 jars of roasted tomatoes
So it’s been 3+ years since you’ve made this video. I’m glad I went looking for your videos because this was very helpful. The coffee grinder tip is perfect. I am wondering how you ended up using the green onion powder. I’m sure you found several ways to use it.
Hi Kathy! New subscriber here, I love your content. I’ve learned so much from your videos already! Any plans for some updated videos? Hope you’re doing well.
I posted the name of your video because I had so much interest when I posted my results. You’ll likely get lots of traffic because of it. Thank you for your great video! Congratulations!
Roach, yes. Thank God almighty, I learned that the flying kind (yes, huge, noisy when flying) are not the kind that infest a house. A wood roach, google said. I heard it before I saw it. Could not figure out what t.a.h. was in my house. 😳🤯😱
tried paint and primer, meh. Now I have primer tinted to match paint. 1 coat primer, 2 coats paint, at least. Hadn't heard about the gray primer over red or pink paint. sounds like a plan.
I am really sorry to see you go. I understand fully your loaded plate. I truly wish you happiness and productivity. Please know you will be missed a great dear. I love your humor and will miss Sven and Oley...they are so funny and love your accent for them. I may not always make the lives but watch after. I have learned so many great things from you. Take care.
I'll miss your live shows, tho I never could watch them because of poor reception here. Thanks for all you've you've shared with us. The laughter and the tears. I hope to see some videos about your greenhouse over the next few months. Good luck to you. God bless!🤗❤️🙏
It would be fun if you could do video once in while. You are always so fun. I have been watching silent. I haven't been able to catch a live and haven't made comments. I wanted to let you know how much you are appreciated, Your light-hearted laughter brightens people's days. I love how you have shared your wisdom and insight and have encouraged others. I will be praying for you and Lord bless you in all that he has you do. You're going to be missed I'm going to miss the weekly visit with Cathy and all that you share. The weather by you oh my! I will be praying that God puts in your pathway. Someone that you can teach and pass that batton, That they can carry on the work of the Lord So that those ministries can still keep going. I agree with what you're saying.Things are so different oh my. Worship is so different. And I have heard a lot of places are having a hard time for people to step up and Beadle's hands and feet for Jesus for his work in ministry. I will be praying it all works out, You have. carried a busy load. Hugs and love to you, my friend. You have to take of you ❤
I missed you Cathy, and so bummed out. We're just coming online after 2 days without power and had a lot of errands to do now that we're online. Terrible timing!
Jaggery is a sweetener that is made from sugarcane; it is also known as unrefined sugar, which is prepared without the separation of molasses and crystals and is mostly produced in India and Africa. You can get it it in any Indian grocery stores
