    I am so glad you have added cooking to your videos. It’s not only informative, it’s inviting hospitality, comfortable, and Beau does a great job as cameraman. I don’t know who edits but, nice job.

    I'm a huge lover of chicken wings. Yours look delicious. Also, I'm very suspicious of people with channels claiming they do a lot of scratch cooking, but have pristine clean ovens, and immaculate cookware. I'm so side-eyeing them 😂

      Oh….our oven is NOT pristine!!! 🤣🤣🤣
      In fact, I’ll come back with a link to an old video when we were trying to sell our suburban home to move to our 7 acres. And the buyer canceled the contract when they said “our house was super clean everywhere, and then they looked in the oven and it was NOT clean. And that we must be hiding something!”
      🤣🤣🤣🤣
      We can laugh about it now. But 7 years ago we were so mad!!!!

      @@BetterTogetherLife Wow, I would have been mad about that too in the moment. I've done the whole spend a day cleaning my oven, and thinking I'm going to keep on top of it thing. Then turned around and somehow I've forgotten to do that. Also, I've now accepted that my claimed 'self cleaning' oven is a liar, and I'm willing to turn a blind eye to that too. 😁

    🇦🇺You need an outdoor kitchen with a bbq , oven and a grill plus pizza oven under cover as well as an undercover eating area. Put in what you love , a smoker etc. that way you don’t heat the house in summer.

      @BetterTogetherLife  Месяц назад

      You know, I was very function focused in the garden for a long time. When to grow things, what to companion plant, how far apart to put each seed. This year, those things are old habit and I’ve planted many new to me thjngs and many of tbis are flowers there taken such unique care and exist simply for beauty (and pollinators). I feel more grounded and satisfied meeting with the Lord there than I have in the toil and trial of learning to feed our family and farm. ❤️ I’m SO glad you’re enjoying that in your garden too!

    Kelly, I found you from Roots and Refuge, you are delightful! I love happy smiley tell it like it is people ...this recipe looks easy thank you for sharing...I would love to hear more about the "shed to home" process, the conversations that went into that decision...I love that you realize our food system is broken and that you are working towards being independent of the supermarket if you needed to...

    Kelly, since you are in Texas, you must find some Mexican oregano to grow in your herb bed. It is a hot zone plant but it is a secret ingredient for your wing sauce!!! Trust me when I say it makes a huge difference in how it tastes. I do butter Franks hot sauce and a teaspoon of Mexican oregano that I rub in my palms over the melted butter. Thanks for the recipe for ranch, I quit buying it because we avoid all soy and the ingredients in the packet are not good for us. I miss my ranch!! I will say we prefer to grill our wings but they do get tossed in avocado oil and garlic and plenty of salt before they hit the grill. Your bun was cute and I agree eating on camera should be avoided....😊😊

    • @BetterTogetherLife
      @BetterTogetherLife  Месяц назад +1

      @BetterTogetherLife the plants I ordered last year died over the winter in my plant room, so I will have to order more. They came from Texas and cost as much to ship as the cost of 2 4" plants.🤣 but they don't grow from seed. You have to get the plants from propagation.
