It is so easy to get burnt out with day to day task and with life in general. Spend the day in the kitchen with me as I meal prep for the week and talk about getting past burnout.

I liked what you said about not comparing yourself to others, we all do the best we can. I used to watch a girls homestead channel and she moved to a big house and had garden architects and landscapers and she had a baby who you never see even if she is canning for 12 hours, so you know she has a nanny or something. She has every piece of kitchen equipment under the sun. The comments made me sad, all the young women saying they want to be like her.

@LewisAcresHomestead 4 месяца назад

Yes we do and its all you can do. It's so hard not to compare though! I used to find myself comparing myself to others that were lightyears ahead of me but quickly realized it wasn't practical for me. I eventually just had to stop following others because I was one of the ones in the comments wanting to be like them. I have slowly learned especially since having my own channel there is always so much going on that is not shown.

I love your sink, I hope some day you can get it reglazed. I have my grandparents iron wedding bed. Their house was torn down after my grandmother died and I was devastated because I lived across country and didn't get a chance to get anything. An uncle found out and went to the dump to retrieve the bed for me. I absolutely love it and remember many cousins piled up under quilts and jumping on it in the summer.

@LewisAcresHomestead 4 месяца назад

Thank you so much! I hope we can have it reglazed someday too! That is so awesome! I’m so glad he went and got it for you. Those are such special memories to have.

I love that you made a round cake and beautiful too. We referred to them as a “Proper Cake”, because 9x13’s were only for potlucks.

I wanted to share a cooking tip 🙂. When emptying mixture from a mixing bowl use a spatula to scrape out the inside of the bowl. This makes sure all of the mixture makes it into your cake/recipe and the mixing bowl is super easy to clean as there’s hardly if any mixture left in the bowl. 🌸

@LewisAcresHomestead 4 месяца назад

Thanks for the tip! I will definitely try this next time!

@evelynbyrd4961 4 месяца назад

Do you save your tea bags? I squeeze out by hand all the tea liquid. Then I set the tea bags to dry out. Then when I have time, I cut with scissors the tea bags open and put tea leaves in jar with lid. When the jar gets full , I mix with garden soil. It helps your garden.

@LewisAcresHomestead 4 месяца назад

No, I’ve never saved them, but I’m definitely going to start! I didn’t even know you could use them to help your garden.

@ladybugmom10 4 месяца назад

First time here and am in awe of your beautiful kitchen!!😮❤ I think I’m old enough now (50) That I’ve learned to be inspired by others but not to compare myself to them. There’s just some things that are simple not in the cards for me or my family, yet I can lean into those things that others have more knowledge about and that spark my desire to learn and go from there. Again though you have a gorgeous kitchen and collection.

@cherylirvin3919 4 месяца назад

I just rendered some leaf lard. I did it on low in my crockpot. I spooned off the lard as soon as it began to liquify. My first jar was pure white with no taste or oder. The second pint was a tiny bit tan as the cracklings were beginning to form. I use the first for baking and the second for sautéing. With that being said, I use 1/2 lard and 1/2 butter for biscuits and pie crusts. Your video is lovely. You have captured a good pace and kept the music low enough to stay in the background. I just found you and subscribed. Keep up the great work! God bless.

Very full day & very impressive, you have way more energy than I have. I think your system of a full day in the kitchen is a great plan. It's good to do a lot of baking on the same day, the oven is already warmed up. All the prep ahead of time, for the week, good idea! Every time I see you working your kitchen, I just fall in love with the yellow cabinets all over again, they are so lovely!

Ok so what did I get out of this video? I want to make chocolate chip cookies. 😂😂 No seriously, those will be yummy but I love the comparison talk. I’ve been married going on 23 years and my kids are teens, ones in an adult in a couple of months but I still deal with that. So much that I took a you tube break recently and unsubscribed from several people. I’ve found myself hitting the “don’t recommend” too. Not that they are bad people but I feel like it’s not reality and yes many have a lot of people off camera doing the work. It was making me feel like I was not able to do anything well. I don’t do any social media platforms except you tube and Pinterest. Keep up the good work!!

@LewisAcresHomestead 4 месяца назад

Definitely make the cookies, you won’t regret it, lol! I have done the same thing with needing to take social media breaks. I totally understand what you’re saying. Thank you! ❤️

Avocado oil would be a good substitute for the lard in the cake.

It definitely would! I love using it in recipes but hate how expensive it is.

@bigbarnlittlehouse7013 4 месяца назад

Beautiful cake! One tip I learned with the parchment under the cake while you frost, instead of one big piece of parchment under the whole cake, do three or four strips of parchment and just tuck them under the edges and around the cake enough to protect that lovely cake stand from the messy frosting. Then you can slip each strip of parchment out without leaving any under the cake. I adore your kitchen!!!

@LewisAcresHomestead 4 месяца назад

Thanks for the tip! This will definitely help save on the mess next time! Thank you!
