    I don’t care how the Farmer talks we will listen every time . Pecan or pea can it’s all good, it’s nice to see a family together without phones in their hands.

    Hats off to Austin “ Mom this is a pea can!” She got you Merdi! Happy Birthday Wesley!! That cake looked delicious!! That 3D printer sounds interesting but I may have to get Lawrence to explain it to me because of the generation gap. Y’all are an awesome family!!

    Putting your flour through a sifter will break up any lumps in the flour, which means you can get a more accurate measurement. Sifted flour is also much lighter and airier than unsifted flour and is easier to mix into other ingredients when making batters and doughs. Buttermilk is an acidic ingredient, which helps break down the gluten in your baking and created a more tender cake. Also as a flavor bonus, the slight tang of buttermilk compliments the overall sweetness in your cake batter, making a more balanced cake. Love your videos, God bless!!

    The way you guys treat your animals says a lot about you. A lot of good things. That kindness is real and can’t be faked. Farming can be hard as you deal with your livestock. It’s good to see you loving on the kids, the animals and the “old farmer”. I say that with affection as I’m 68 and so enjoy those “old farmers” I meet all across my native NC. My granddaddy was one of them. May God bless you and yours.

    Someday, when you're gone (no rush), your kids are going to remember your great laugh and the fun times doing things like baking cakes. German chocolate is my favorite but my mom was not a baker so a friend of hers always baked my birthday cake.

I have some of my Great- Grandma’s recipes in her handwriting and they are a treasure for sure. I took pictures of all of them in case anything ever happens to my box, I’ll still have them.
    Happy birthday Wes!

    Cake flour is a finer grind than regular flour. Sifting aerates the flour, fluffing it up, to prevent clumping.

    Loved this video. Been watching for a little over a year but have watched all of your content. This video was almost all behind the scenes (of farming). A great insight.
    My grandfather was a cattle farmer in Sequatchie Valley, TN (Powell's Crossroads). He raised beef castle. I guess that's what draws me to your channel. Growing up farming with my grandfather is a life experience not many get to experience. Although watching you guys haul square bale hay triggered a little PTSD😝. All the best and Happy Birthday to Wesley
