Great video! I'm 76 and NOT pregnant but live with my daughter and her family. I have grands that want a lunch and days when my daughter is just overwhelmed with her responsibilities at work and LOVE to fix something QUICK for everyone. This helps me so much as I think of canning as fast food 2.0! No last minute trips to town with an empty wallet. Just makes good food quick!
Jessica, I have been preparing and preserving for 25 years! It's so good to see young families learning these things and it's wonderful that you are available to teach them! God Bless you and your family, and may you have a wonderful birthing experience.
Wow that's amazing! I'm a homeschooling mom and have been preparing for a few years now, but have always had a good rotating pantry and stock. However I've begun learning a lot of food preservation skills in the last year or so and it's been so great to learn. Wish I had a neighbor or someone like you nearby to help me learn all these important "older ways"
Thank you again for you calm organizational methodology. You seem to be as prepared as possible for the new baby and to ensure that all of the family is well nourished and also prepared for baby’s arrival. Holding you in my prayers for safe delivery and healthy mom and newborn. Cannot wait to see that sweet babe’s face. Take care, Jessica. Rest and know your children can handle meal prep for a while. Blessings.
Thank you for ending my week with an update. I can't wait for you to have your baby. Will be wonderful to 'meet' him/her. You look amazing even if you don't always feel it.
I made a 14lb batch of sloppy joes for deer hunting season and 2 holiday parties and I used 5 24oz bottles of ketchup! So glad I have to extra supplies on hand!
Lovely video. I live with two small dogs and am almost totally vegan so my needs are completely different than your family’s needs but I enjoy watching how you plan, prepare and maintain food for your large family. I hope you have a peaceful week. If baby comes I pray for an easy delivery.
Catrina you can always Can the dry beans and the vegetable soup so handy to have on hand and you know whats in them. We don't eat beef and so many of these in the store add beef broth unless you look for ones that say Vegetarian on them or No Fat Added on things like refried beans. Anna In Ohio
@@buckeyedav1 thank you, Anna. That’s great advice and you’re right… if you don’t can them yourself you don’t really know what’s in them. Also they usually have way too much sodium unless you get salt free.
Soups and veggie and bean stews are what I like to can for myself, so I always have meals handy for when I am working evening shifts. I absolutely don't feel like cooking at 10pm so ready meals are a must.
You (and Becky from acre homestead) have changed my way of thinking about food. Your “every little bit counts challenge” and talking about being a good steward of what you are blessed with has changed our food waste. In 3 months I have almost filled 1/2 a freezer with leftover soups, broth and food that would have normally sat in our fridge and gone bad (we are a smaller family of 4). I now have food to take for lunch instead of eating out at work. I’m nervous about canning but it is next on my list to learn and this upcoming spring we are going to try raised beds and planters for a small garden. Thank for your inspiration and best wishes for a safe delivery of your new baby! 😊💞
I was totally nervous about pressure canning at first too. After you do it the first time, you'll gain confidence to keep going. That's how it worked for me anyway. Now I can't imagine not canning my own food. I love the idea that I know exactly what is in that jar. There are no mystery ingredients that I can't pronounce! It's very satisfying to see what I've accomplished and I have peace of mind knowing my family is provided for. Take the plunge! You went regret it 🙏♥️
@@futurefolk9919 I second that. The first time I used my canner I was terrified it's going to explode 😂 Nothing like that happened and I'm now totally addicted to canning. I've canned sixteen and a half pints of meat today and the sense of accomplishment is still as great as the first time.
It seems like another baby boom. Almost everyone I know is expecting or have delivered recently. Such little blessings. I will have to gift some of these convenience meals. Prayers for the Ernst family and all who were involved in the Madison county crash. May God keep them.
I've got 3 freezers and STILL no room for freezer meals. I totally understand and appreciate your ideas outside of the freezer! You blow my mind with your organization and the effort you put in to get things done! You're a fantastic Mama and wife and teacher. PLUS you take the time to talk to us and teach us? You put me to shame! Good job Mama Bear! I would love to see your recipes or what you'd do to all of your canned food. I have canned so many beans, tomato products and chicken. I have just a few things I know to do with them and my hubby is tired of refried beans, beans and cornbread and beans and rice! 😂
As a European (not in Ukraine but close-by) your videos are giving me a lot of food for thought now that we are expecting powercuts and the price of electricity is going through the roof. Thankfully I’ve always been a huge fan of food prep videos so I already have some knowledge on how to make this work 😊💪🏻
Prayers for you and your family. I live in an area that has power outages often and I recently purchased a Kelly Kettle to boil water very quickly with very little fuel. You can use it to cook as well. Good luck staying warm and fed during your power outages!
@@juliabrown5948 Thank you Julia! I had to google Kelly Kettle and it looks very practical 😃 I’ve never actually had to worry about power outages, water supply and food security before. It’s a bit of a shock to the system but also makes you realise the value of things you took for granted. There’s a lot we can learn from this 😊
Blessings Jessica. You are just glowing. My daughter and I are hoping for a little girl . Those 2 big sisters need her. LOL. I can tell you will have lots of help . They will be great moms also. My granddaughters we've discussing numbers of children and names on Thanksgiving. I am so blessed.
I was soooo intimidated to open and use my pressure canner. It sat for months. I finally busted it open in August and tried it using jars of water as suggested in the manual. I've come to really like the process and am building up my pantry shelves little by little. It's just 2 of us but taking home made, home canned soup to work for lunch is such a pleasure. Continuing to pray for your last days of pregnancy and a safe, healthy delivery. TFS.
Thank you for explaining the methods that work for you and your family. Currently, I don't even own a freezer so this gives many ideas. I am an older adult whose (homeschooled) children are already grown but I can see how these methods would work for me, too! May you find a few chances to rest today and blessings to you and your husband as you strive to get things done before the baby arrives.💕
I am am older lady too. My children are all grown and families of their own. I also live alone with 2 cats. But with limited income and the knowledge l learned from my parents and my church. I still fix meals as if l have a husband and kids still at home. The left overs l pack up onto meals and put in my freezer. I even got my single friend to purchase a freezer for herself. Even when l lived in places that said l could not have one l still managed to get my freezer in and hide it so when inspections happened it was not seen. I don't have a big family size but the size l have works for me. When the pandemic hit l have a 6 mos food storage and took advantage of sales to re stock my food storage and my freezer.
I don’t have freezer space either. I love having canned meat on the shelf. I’ve canned up roast, potatoes, carrots and onions together. My husband loves that. I’ve also canned just carrots, onions and celery together because that’s the base for many soups. I turn my canned chicken into easy casseroles or chicken salad. My pork butt/shoulder into easy bbq sandwiches. I just warm up and add the bbq sauce.
I love spending my Sunday mornings with you Jessica, You are such an inspiration. I am pregnant and due two days after Christmas, so it looks like we are close in our baby development!! So I have a *QUESTION* have you considered putting together a full cookbook for sale? With just the simple ingredients and steps to do the basics like your white chili base, or pie fillings? Maybe even with a freeze dryer recipe section?? My brain is so scattered it seems like if I don’t have something in front of me to follow the directions that I either mess it up, or feel too overwhelmed to get it done!! Sad, I know… I need to just follow along with you in your videos! Thank you for all the time you put into these weekly videos, you are truly amazing!
I would also love a cookbook, I'm not pregnant and I still lack ideas of what to prep ahead for easy family meals and if I do have an idea I hate having to go searching for recipes, especially for canning which is much more precise. However I cannot imagine the work that would to into putting a cookbook together, and I know you are so busy. Maybe a homeschool project for the whole family would be fun, after things calm down with the new babe. No pressure, just another hand raised to say that I would certainly buy the book!
Big sigh!!!!! You are way ahead of the game!!!!! I pray all goes well with your delivery! It seems like you have everything under control and have taken care of your household!!!! I can just imagine the excitement that is going on in your family with the expectation of the new arrival!!!!!
I’m having a down moment right now and watching your channel is always so relaxing and inspiring without feeling unrealistic or fake. Thank you for all the hard work you do for us in addition to everything you do in your life! I appreciate you. 🖤🖤🖤
Good morning friend! I love starting my week with you! So excited for Baby Three Rivers! Wish I lived close, I would love to bring you a meal! God bless you and you sweet family! Love and prayers.❤
I've gotten away from freezer meals. I will put certain items in the freezer to have ready but I have found I can get dinner done far more quickly using my home canned foods than a freezer meal. I meal plan and do a great job staying on my menu planning so on the rare occasion we get home later than planned, a freezer meal doesn't help because its frozen! I work outside of the home at least a few days out of the week so I find it just as easy to thaw my meat and meal plan from that then it is to pull a freezer meal out. I plan the types of dinners we have around the kind of day we have in terms of after school activities. Opening jars and heating up is always a saving grace. Plus my freezer space is hard to come by since we have whole hogs and steers every year plus the garden produce. I have a small section to tuck away "left overs" or meals
Thank you for this. I made your refried beans when you posted your video on them and they’re wonderful! Praying for a beautiful delivery and healthy baby.
Good morning Jessica. Thank you for the time and effort you put into your videos. I have gleened so much from you, and you're a LOT younger than me. Have a blessed Lord's Day.
We are counting down the days now. I am sure your family is getting very excited for this new little one. Your older kiddos are a real blessing in helping out with meal prep. Take care and God bless. 🥰
Thank you for this video! I thought I was the only one who wasn’t into freezer meals. I have zero freezer space and find canning sooooo much more convenient. My husband calls meals in jars, “heat & eat” ….our version of fast food. Praying for you and baby ThreeRivers everyday 🙏🏻
Love canning! There's never enough freezer space. I have one large stand up freezer and a smallish chest freezer. My husband just got 2 deer that we are processing ourselves and I truly need another freezer. One of my sil's was over and said maybe "santa" would bring me another freezer. lol THAT would be a blessing for sure! I've never canned venison but I'm definitely going to this time. Thank you for another wonderful vlog!! I'm so excited to meet this sweet blessing that will be here soon! I'm still voting for team pink 💕😊
I so look forward to watching your informative and relaxing videos every Sunday morning ❤ I mistakenly thought yesterday was Sunday so I was worried when your video didn’t appear! I was relieved when I realized I just mixed up my days. Have a blessed day 🙏 I am so looking forward to seeing your new little addition to your lovely family.
I absolutely love your videos. I recently found your channel and admire you and hour husband so much. Not only do the two of you have such strong work values but the faith your bring to your children is so wonderful to see it is so very sad that people grow farther and farther away from our Heavenly Father. Good luck on the birth of the new baby to come. God bless your family
Happy Sunday Jessica! I love starting my Sunday with Three Rivers Homestead.. I'm excited I just got a water-bath cookbook for jams and salsa and my water-bath pot. I'm a newbie so I'm going to start with things I'm comfortable with. I also can't wait to start The no spend, cooking what's on hand. It helped us alot for my first time trying it.. From OKC,Ok 🥰
You are gonna get addicted to canning ! I now pressure can more then water bath canning lol ( it’s because I love having meat and veggies on my Shelf’s ! , presto pressure canner is a amazing 1st time pressure canner ! I have a 16 qt with the weighted jiggler and my hubby just suprised me with the 23 quart! It has the gage , so it will be a learning curve for me :)
Good luck with your canning journey! I’m getting ready to learn as well!! I helped my parents can vegetables when I was a kid but I’ve never tried as an adult. I’m binging all canning videos and will start with the easy stuff too! I’m saving for the presto pressure canner and Becky from Acre Homestead said you can waterbath can and pressure can with it. Still, I’m going to start with regular water bath canning till then.
You probably already know this but for safety sake I'm going to put this out there.. meats and vegetables are only safe to Can in a Pressure Canner. A lot of Canning Rebels do it in a water bath but I wouldn't. Pressure Canners have come down in price now that the big C scare is down and they are well worth every penny you spend on one. Best wishes Canning is a great investment in so many ways. Anna In Ohio
Great way to start. We can about everything cause 3 freezers is never enough. We made mint jelly this year more to spike the hot tea with mint and sugar!! Hello from another Okie!! I live in Shawnee!!
Thank you so much for this tutorial, I appreciate your explanation of the headspace, I have gone with the prescribed headspace and had failed seals. God bless you and be your helper as you welcome this new little one, so happy for your family!
Those are beautiful filled shelves behind you! You are such an inspiration . I love to hear of mom's who homeschool and especially these days. God bless!
I love meals in a jar! Just took my leftover turkey and made bone broth out of it. Used the meat and added potatoes, carrots, celery, onions, green beans and corn. Added the broth and now I have pot pie starter! Canning that and a batch of broth as I type this. If you haven't tried this type of canning I encourage you to try. It's super convenient. 🙏♥️
I'm single and eat whole food, plant-based, so I can't eat many of the recipes you use, but I do learn a lot and get inspired by your videos. Best wishes for you, baby and family! 🙂
There are only two of us, but having canned meals ready is great for us, too -- for camping, or for days when we're super busy (or feeling lazy). No thawing -- just pull something off the shelf. Right now I have canned steak slices, beef stew, chili, and two kinds of soup canned.
Hi Jessica, thank you for another great video! I am sure I am not alone in praying for you to have a safe and happy delivery when that time arrives. I have been canning most of my meals also, but some convenience items for me have been cooked parboiled rice, as it freezes great and can be added to chicken soups, frozen cooked ground beef for tacos, burritos, etc., and I have done cooked meat loaves. I love all the tips you give and look forward to meeting #8! Have a blessed week!
Love how you plan things that work best for whatever stage you and your family are in. Your tips and encouragement are so helpful. Blessings to you and your family and new baby! 🙏
Enjoy Sunday even more when I relax and watch you videos. While I don’t have children at home anymore I like the seeing what you preserve. Your no waste approach along with convenience foods are something I practice. Currently working on the left over Turkey for pot pie filling to can. So easy after a work day to have something that takes minutes to prepare. Blessings to you and your family. May you have a peaceful, healthy birth.
Jessica, you are amazing! I don't know how you do all that you do, let alone do it while pregnant, and so close to giving birth! When I was pregnant I wasn't good for anything the last month! Thank you so much for all that you do!
WOW!!!! I am just not sure how you take care of your large family as you do and still have time for all the information/knowledge you share with us. Thank you! GOD Bless.
Thank you for another great video Jessica. I love canning and prefer to have canned food over frozen due to my penchant of forgetting to get something out to thaw. ☺️. I totally understand being intimidated by pressure canning-I was for quite some time. I practiced with water bath canning and once I’d pickled everything I could think to pickle and made a few gallons of jam (still giving jars of that away ☺️), I braved up and broke out the pressure canner and my life has never been the same. I started with an electric pressure canner, and if you can afford one, I would recommend starting that way since the machine takes all the thinking and danger out of the process. About three runs in that and I graduated to an all American traditional canner, and I’ve actually had better seal rates with pressure canning than water bath, and it’s really not dangerous to do provided you follow directions.
I've canned beef stew, chicken, pulled pork (without bbq sauce) for convience meals. I also have broths, potatoes, stock, Apple pie filling, tomato sauce, salsa verde. I'll pray you have an easy birth. Prayers for your family.
Jessica, PLEASE KEEP MAKING VIDEOS!! You are a blessing! Thanks for sharing your ideas & daily routines. I’ve gotten so many things that you’ve taught me that I’ll carry forever!
I'm new to canning and I love it. I hadn't thought about sloppy joes. Gonna try that real soon. Praying for safe delivery, healthy baby and speedy recovery for mom. Can't wait to meet him/her. I'm team girl ........ love your seeet family Jessica. Be blessed.
It’s so amazing to me how RUclips connects so many people through interests etc. we don’t have much in common at all, Jessica. I live in a city, I’m single with no kids. I don’t have a farm or land or anything just a small backyard with a tiny garden. And even with all the differences, I find so much comfort and joy through what you choose to share of your life. Sometimes the internet can be wonderful :)
I appreciate the tip and wisdom on prepping with all small children. I’m expecting my 3rd baby here in a few weeks and that is a great idea to focus on breakfast most.
Happy to see you this morning! You look lovely today. I’m surprised at your energy level this close to giving birth. You’re an inspiration. Thanks for the tips and tricks Re: alternatives to freezer casseroles. I’m sure there’s lots of us who prefer not making the dairy heavy casserole dishes, especially if one was not raised on casserole type meals. My mom always served a protein, starch, veg and salad. Period! Haha Take good care. Bless you.
Something I've been doing lately I always no matter how much I eyeball it is make 2 much spaghetti noodles so I've been freezing what is left with some extra spaghetti sauce. I have some now that I made last Monday that will be served tomorrow ( Monday is always our spaghetti meal day) I also cooked up 2 additional pounds of burger that day and froze it. I have construction workers here tomorrow so my day will be thrown off no worries thaw heat and serve dinner. So that is one thing that can be added to the deep freezers that isn't dairy heavy. Anna In Ohio
Good morning! You are truly amazing and inspiring! At our home it’s just my husband and I with the occasional other family visitors added in. I wanted to just emphasize that your approach is so useful for all family sizes to consider. As we are all figuring out how to cope with increasing food prices, shortages, etc., buying in bulk whenever possible and really avoiding waste becomes more necessary for everyone. I deal with food intolerances (dairy and gluten); and my husband has Type 2 diabetes, so many of the freezer meals don’t work well for us. I have one small chest freezer and one fridge/freezer so the storage is also an issue. Then, there are other issues such as electric power failures. Those happen short term, but frequently in our area. A few years ago our entire state went through horrible storms and flooding and many were without electricity for more than 2 weeks. A lot of freezer food was lost. Additionally, stores and gas stations were also impacted. So, my point is that families of all sizes and circumstances can greatly benefit from the invaluable information you are providing. Thank you and may God richly bless you and your beautiful, growing family ❤
Hi Donna. My best friend, who's in his 70's has got Type 2 diabetes as well so I like to can some nutritious meals for him to make sure he eats well. He lives on his own so is not always bothered to cook and will rely heavily on carbs like bread and pasta, which always mess up his sugar levels. I can meats and stews for him to encourage him to eat well. I hope you and your husband are doing well despite the mess the world is in right now.
Very smart using your canned goods combined to get her to make a meal . I am saving up for a freeze dyers ! Hope you are getting plenty of rest for that new baby !
I must congratulate you. I am so inspired by your organizing and planning and making every bit count. Thank you! May you have a safe and happy delivery.
Thanks Jessica 🌹 you are a wonderful inspiration to a lot of people, prayers for a quick, easy delivery and healthy baby and family. You take care, don't wear yourself out trying to get everything done before time, a wore out Mom isn't a good thing come delivery time. Enjoy your time. Take care and God Bless 🌹❤️
You are doing great with everything going on! So happy you & your family will be able to really enjoy your new arrival! Praying for everything to go as planned! 💖🙏💖
Jessica! You are such an inspiration to me. I love your outlook on life, your sweet wonderful family and the feel good feeling when I watch your show. Thinking all the best for you and yours . ❤️
I also cook with dietary restrictions, dairy and gluten. So you’ve given me some great ideas 😊❤thanks. Always enjoy catching up with you and your daily life. Stay well, rest as much as possible for the new person coming into your lives. Jessica you are such a thoughtful and loving mum your children are very lucky.
You continually amaze me! In my youth, I nested exactly the same way. You inspire me always! Now I just share with my kids and their families. Thank you ❤. Can’t wait for the baby🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I just did freeze drying of a vegetable bean and sausage soup. And I canned 9 pints of beans, and 9 pints of vegetable stock for us. Squeezing it in between snow melting and the next storm coming. I can outdoors with my pressure canner on a camp stove, the all American pressure canner is too big for my glass top electric stove. But I would not trade it for anything!!. I waited for years to get it, and only wished that I had made the decision sooner, it really upped my canning game. Wow!! I can't wait to try the sloppy joe recipe 😋. God bless you and your family, your videos are a true gift.
I am so excited for your new baby to come into this outside world. I can only imagine how conveneient all of your very hard work will soon be paying off.
After watching this video, I have bought a pressure canner for my family! I've been trying to come up with some easy meals to throw together when I'm busy and my freezers always seem to be full too. I've been watching your videos for awhile now and just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy watching them. You obviously put a lot of thought and care into them and it really shows.
Glad to see your happy face today! I have never pressure canned but I’m going to give it try. Try and rest while you can. Looking forward to meeting the new arrival!
Thank you for putting words to this. I also find that I have gone more and more away from freezer meals. I do freeze leftovers, but those will go with my husband and kids to work and school. More and more I find that I get more out of my freezer by freezing pre prepped veggies instead of whole meals. It’s a lot more flexible. This way I can pull out a few cans, and add some pre prepped veggies to it if needed. I also like to keep premade pie crust and pizza dough in the freezer. Like you I MRE’s are canned. I do a lot of the same bases as you do too. You are right that it helps a lot. Have a blessed week.
Love your videos! It's just my husband and I, but have found your videos informative and inspirational. At 70+ I'm still learning. Finally learnedcto make biscuits and pie crust this year. Praying for a safe delivery and another healthy baby.
Jessica, idk if you know but you can make really tasty cream of mushroom soup with oat milk or nut milk & beef broth or onion broth and they freeze really well. God bless.
I love seeing the stocked shelves in the background - what a comfort it must be to have all that food ready to go! I do a lot of preserving using my freezer - I store seasonal produce as well as tons of made from scratch foods…but I also want to learn how to do pressure canning. That’s my goal for 2023!! Thanks for all the inspiration and motivation!! 😊😘
Thank you Jessica! I look forward all week to your video. We're a day ahead here on Guam so I normally sit down after everyone is fed and out the door and enjoy your latest creation on my Monday morning. It really inspires me for the week. I love watching your pressure canning videos. I just received my pressure canner I actually went with the NESCO electric pressure canner. I had wanted an All American for the stove but relying on solar panels the electric one consumes less energy than my stove top. I'm just starting to use it so pray for me I read all the reviews and pro's and con's so we'll see. I have about 60 wild chickens I need to process and like you I'm out of freezer space. We get a limited amount of certain items on island so alot of my freezer space goes to cheese and seasonal produce that I grow like bananas and mangoes that are harder to can. Watching you can meat has been an eye opener for me and gave me the confidence to try it. Also living on an island fish is abundant and I'd like to try pressure canning some fish. We went 3 months recently with no chicken in our commissary due to supply chain issues so relying on what we can catch, raise and process ourselves is very important. Also I'm trying cubed pumpkin for the first time we got an excess of pumpkins this year which is super rare and they were .19 cents a pound so I'm going to try your method, and make roasted pumpkin seeds. Thank you again!
Great video Jessica. Hey if you freeze your biscuits unbaked….you can pour you pie filling in a casserole dish and top with unbaked biscuits and sprinkle them with a little sugar for a quick cobbler type desert and bake. Look forward to hearing the news 💕🇨🇦
Jessica your just an inspiration. Mike & I have been gardening and preserving for over 30 years and we know how much work goes into it. To know what your eating and the savings is why we continue. Mike is a retired chef over 28 years and it also what we love to do. We do the same for making quick meals. We do lot's of canning and preserving on our channel. Blessings, Rochelle
This has been so helpful to me! I do lots of freezer meals but would love to have shelf stable prepped meals around here especially for lunch as it’s our hardest meal too!
Great video! I'm 76 and NOT pregnant but live with my daughter and her family. I have grands that want a lunch and days when my daughter is just overwhelmed with her responsibilities at work and LOVE to fix something QUICK for everyone. This helps me so much as I think of canning as fast food 2.0! No last minute trips to town with an empty wallet. Just makes good food quick!
Jessica, you ROCK!!!! Someone just needed to say it!!! Just an amazing lady!!! Happy home church day!!!! 😁😁🌻🌻🏅🏅
Yes, she is amazing!
Absolutely!!
I think she does too!!! ❤❤❤
Jessica, I have been preparing and preserving for 25 years! It's so good to see young families learning these things and it's wonderful that you are available to teach them! God Bless you and your family, and may you have a wonderful birthing experience.
Wow that's amazing! I'm a homeschooling mom and have been preparing for a few years now, but have always had a good rotating pantry and stock. However I've begun learning a lot of food preservation skills in the last year or so and it's been so great to learn. Wish I had a neighbor or someone like you nearby to help me learn all these important "older ways"
You have the real meaning of fast food!! The best food ever is homemade.
Thank you again for you calm organizational methodology. You seem to be as prepared as possible for the new baby and to ensure that all of the family is well nourished and also prepared for baby’s arrival. Holding you in my prayers for safe delivery and healthy mom and newborn. Cannot wait to see that sweet babe’s face. Take care, Jessica. Rest and know your children can handle meal prep for a while. Blessings.
Thank you for ending my week with an update. I can't wait for you to have your baby. Will be wonderful to 'meet' him/her. You look amazing even if you don't always feel it.
Hello beautiful one
I made a 14lb batch of sloppy joes for deer hunting season and 2 holiday parties and I used 5 24oz bottles of ketchup! So glad I have to extra supplies on hand!
Lovely video. I live with two small dogs and am almost totally vegan so my needs are completely different than your family’s needs but I enjoy watching how you plan, prepare and maintain food for your large family. I hope you have a peaceful week. If baby comes I pray for an easy delivery.
I enjoy watching them too!
Catrina you can always Can the dry beans and the vegetable soup so handy to have on hand and you know whats in them. We don't eat beef and so many of these in the store add beef broth unless you look for ones that say Vegetarian on them or No Fat Added on things like refried beans. Anna In Ohio
@@buckeyedav1 thank you, Anna. That’s great advice and you’re right… if you don’t can them yourself you don’t really know what’s in them. Also they usually have way too much sodium unless you get salt free.
@@buckeyedav1 I guess I’ve always been a little nervous about canning but Jessica makes it seem doable and takes a lot of the mystery out of it.

You (and Becky from acre homestead) have changed my way of thinking about food. Your “every little bit counts challenge” and talking about being a good steward of what you are blessed with has changed our food waste. In 3 months I have almost filled 1/2 a freezer with leftover soups, broth and food that would have normally sat in our fridge and gone bad (we are a smaller family of 4). I now have food to take for lunch instead of eating out at work. I’m nervous about canning but it is next on my list to learn and this upcoming spring we are going to try raised beds and planters for a small garden. Thank for your inspiration and best wishes for a safe delivery of your new baby! 😊💞
I love Becky too in fact I learned about her from Jessica my 2 favorite channels. Anna In Ohio
I was totally nervous about pressure canning at first too. After you do it the first time, you'll gain confidence to keep going. That's how it worked for me anyway.
Now I can't imagine not canning my own food. I love the idea that I know exactly what is in that jar. There are no mystery ingredients that I can't pronounce! It's very satisfying to see what I've accomplished and I have peace of mind knowing my family is provided for.
Take the plunge! You went regret it 🙏♥️
@@futurefolk9919 I second that. The first time I used my canner I was terrified it's going to explode 😂 Nothing like that happened and I'm now totally addicted to canning. I've canned sixteen and a half pints of meat today and the sense of accomplishment is still as great as the first time.
Gosh, it must be any day now for baby three rivers! Sending love and care you and your families way!
It seems like another baby boom. Almost everyone I know is expecting or have delivered recently. Such little blessings. I will have to gift some of these convenience meals.
Prayers for the Ernst family and all who were involved in the Madison county crash. May God keep them.
I've got 3 freezers and STILL no room for freezer meals. I totally understand and appreciate your ideas outside of the freezer! You blow my mind with your organization and the effort you put in to get things done! You're a fantastic Mama and wife and teacher. PLUS you take the time to talk to us and teach us? You put me to shame! Good job Mama Bear! I would love to see your recipes or what you'd do to all of your canned food. I have canned so many beans, tomato products and chicken. I have just a few things I know to do with them and my hubby is tired of refried beans, beans and cornbread and beans and rice! 😂
As a European (not in Ukraine but close-by) your videos are giving me a lot of food for thought now that we are expecting powercuts and the price of electricity is going through the roof. Thankfully I’ve always been a huge fan of food prep videos so I already have some knowledge on how to make this work 😊💪🏻
Prayers for you and your family. I live in an area that has power outages often and I recently purchased a Kelly Kettle to boil water very quickly with very little fuel. You can use it to cook as well. Good luck staying warm and fed during your power outages!
@@juliabrown5948 Thank you Julia! I had to google Kelly Kettle and it looks very practical 😃 I’ve never actually had to worry about power outages, water supply and food security before. It’s a bit of a shock to the system but also makes you realise the value of things you took for granted. There’s a lot we can learn from this 😊
@@dukeofbuncaster I agree. So many of us take things for granted until we can't.
Wishing you a warm winter!
@@diannamc367 Thank you! ☃️❄️🌞
@@dukeofbuncaster you're welcome 😊
Praying for you an easy safe delivery! Looking forward to meeting this precious new little one! You look beautiful! Happy Sunday
Blessings Jessica. You are just glowing. My daughter and I are hoping for a little girl . Those 2 big sisters need her. LOL. I can tell you will have lots of help . They will be great moms also. My granddaughters we've discussing numbers of children and names on Thanksgiving. I am so blessed.
I adore you and your family and I thank you for sharing yourselves with us.
I was soooo intimidated to open and use my pressure canner. It sat for months. I finally busted it open in August and tried it using jars of water as suggested in the manual. I've come to really like the process and am building up my pantry shelves little by little. It's just 2 of us but taking home made, home canned soup to work for lunch is such a pleasure. Continuing to pray for your last days of pregnancy and a safe, healthy delivery. TFS.
Thank you for explaining the methods that work for you and your family. Currently, I don't even own a freezer so this gives many ideas. I am an older adult whose (homeschooled) children are already grown but I can see how these methods would work for me, too!
May you find a few chances to rest today and blessings to you and your husband as you strive to get things done before the baby arrives.💕
I am am older lady too. My children are all grown and families of their own. I also live alone with 2 cats. But with limited income and the knowledge l learned from my parents and my church. I still fix meals as if l have a husband and kids still at home. The left overs l pack up onto meals and put in my freezer. I even got my single friend to purchase a freezer for herself. Even when l lived in places that said l could not have one l still managed to get my freezer in and hide it so when inspections happened it was not seen. I don't have a big family size but the size l have works for me. When the pandemic hit l have a 6 mos food storage and took advantage of sales to re stock my food storage and my freezer.
From what I've seen of your children they are more than capable of running that kitchen..blessing to the new lil one 🙏
My husband, son and I had covid all at the same time. It was so convenient to pull soup and beef stew meals off the shelve.
I don’t have freezer space either. I love having canned meat on the shelf. I’ve canned up roast, potatoes, carrots and onions together. My husband loves that. I’ve also canned just carrots, onions and celery together because that’s the base for many soups. I turn my canned chicken into easy casseroles or chicken salad. My pork butt/shoulder into easy bbq sandwiches. I just warm up and add the bbq sauce.
I'm sending hugs your way as your baby's arrival gets closer. Many prayers will be said for you all!
I love spending my Sunday mornings with you Jessica, You are such an inspiration. I am pregnant and due two days after Christmas, so it looks like we are close in our baby development!! So I have a *QUESTION* have you considered putting together a full cookbook for sale? With just the simple ingredients and steps to do the basics like your white chili base, or pie fillings? Maybe even with a freeze dryer recipe section?? My brain is so scattered it seems like if I don’t have something in front of me to follow the directions that I either mess it up, or feel too overwhelmed to get it done!! Sad, I know… I need to just follow along with you in your videos! Thank you for all the time you put into these weekly videos, you are truly amazing!
I would also love a cookbook, I'm not pregnant and I still lack ideas of what to prep ahead for easy family meals and if I do have an idea I hate having to go searching for recipes, especially for canning which is much more precise.
However I cannot imagine the work that would to into putting a cookbook together, and I know you are so busy. Maybe a homeschool project for the whole family would be fun, after things calm down with the new babe. No pressure, just another hand raised to say that I would certainly buy the book!
Big sigh!!!!! You are way ahead of the game!!!!! I pray all goes well with your delivery! It seems like you have everything under control and have taken care of your household!!!! I can just imagine the excitement that is going on in your family with the expectation of the new arrival!!!!!
You're amazing. What an amazing example, always accessible and judgment free.
I’m having a down moment right now and watching your channel is always so relaxing and inspiring without feeling unrealistic or fake. Thank you for all the hard work you do for us in addition to everything you do in your life! I appreciate you. 🖤🖤🖤
You are one of the most encouraging sweet person. Love your family and will certainly keep your family in my prayers.
Good morning friend! I love starting my week with you! So excited for Baby Three Rivers! Wish I lived close, I would love to bring you a meal! God bless you and you sweet family! Love and prayers.❤
Oh, I have to add, my water glassed eggs worked! I am so excited! Thank you for sharing all your wonderful knowledge on food preserving! ❤️☺️
I've gotten away from freezer meals. I will put certain items in the freezer to have ready but I have found I can get dinner done far more quickly using my home canned foods than a freezer meal. I meal plan and do a great job staying on my menu planning so on the rare occasion we get home later than planned, a freezer meal doesn't help because its frozen! I work outside of the home at least a few days out of the week so I find it just as easy to thaw my meat and meal plan from that then it is to pull a freezer meal out. I plan the types of dinners we have around the kind of day we have in terms of after school activities. Opening jars and heating up is always a saving grace. Plus my freezer space is hard to come by since we have whole hogs and steers every year plus the garden produce. I have a small section to tuck away "left overs" or meals
Hello beautiful one how are you doing
Thank you for this. I made your refried beans when you posted your video on them and they’re wonderful! Praying for a beautiful delivery and healthy baby.
Good morning Jessica. Thank you for the time and effort you put into your videos. I have gleened so much from you, and you're a LOT younger than me. Have a blessed Lord's Day.
I agree Do what you gotta do and it’s wonderful to have all the children that are willing to help
Thanks for sharing all that info. It's great to show how we all can prepare for busy seasons in life. I love watching the process you use.
We are counting down the days now. I am sure your family is getting very excited for this new little one. Your older kiddos are a real blessing in helping out with meal prep.
Take care and God bless. 🥰
Thank you for this video! I thought I was the only one who wasn’t into freezer meals. I have zero freezer space and find canning sooooo much more convenient. My husband calls meals in jars, “heat & eat” ….our version of fast food. Praying for you and baby ThreeRivers everyday 🙏🏻
Hi Jessica hope all is going well, your special day is approaching my our Lord be with all of you 🙏
I am thankful for you and your videos. I love starting my Sunday with your sharing. Thank you for all you do. So excited for new baby coming 🙏🏻🤗
Love canning! There's never enough freezer space. I have one large stand up freezer and a smallish chest freezer. My husband just got 2 deer that we are processing ourselves and I truly need another freezer. One of my sil's was over and said maybe "santa" would bring me another freezer. lol THAT would be a blessing for sure! I've never canned venison but I'm definitely going to this time. Thank you for another wonderful vlog!! I'm so excited to meet this sweet blessing that will be here soon! I'm still voting for team pink 💕😊
Thanks for the informative video. You do a wonderful job with homecare and raising your family! Wishing you well for upcoming baby #8.
I so look forward to watching your informative and relaxing videos every Sunday morning ❤ I mistakenly thought yesterday was Sunday so I was worried when your video didn’t appear! I was relieved when I realized I just mixed up my days. Have a blessed day 🙏 I am so looking forward to seeing your new little addition to your lovely family.
I absolutely love your videos. I recently found your channel and admire you and hour husband so much. Not only do the two of you have such strong work values but the faith your bring to your children is so wonderful to see it is so very sad that people grow farther and farther away from our Heavenly Father. Good luck on the birth of the new baby to come. God bless your family
Happy Sunday Jessica! I love starting my Sunday with Three Rivers Homestead.. I'm excited I just got a water-bath cookbook for jams and salsa and my water-bath pot. I'm a newbie so I'm going to start with things I'm comfortable with. I also can't wait to start The no spend, cooking what's on hand. It helped us alot for my first time trying it.. From OKC,Ok 🥰
You are gonna get addicted to canning ! I now pressure can more then water bath canning lol ( it’s because I love having meat and veggies on my
Shelf’s ! , presto pressure canner is a amazing 1st time pressure canner ! I have a 16 qt with the weighted jiggler and my hubby just suprised me with the 23 quart! It has the gage , so it will be a learning curve for me :)
Good luck with your canning journey! I’m getting ready to learn as well!! I helped my parents can vegetables when I was a kid but I’ve never tried as an adult. I’m binging all canning videos and will start with the easy stuff too! I’m saving for the presto pressure canner and Becky from Acre Homestead said you can waterbath can and pressure can with it. Still, I’m going to start with regular water bath canning till then.
You probably already know this but for safety sake I'm going to put this out there.. meats and vegetables are only safe to Can in a Pressure Canner. A lot of Canning Rebels do it in a water bath but I wouldn't. Pressure Canners have come down in price now that the big C scare is down and they are well worth every penny you spend on one. Best wishes Canning is a great investment in so many ways. Anna In Ohio
Great way to start. We can about everything cause 3 freezers is never enough. We made mint jelly this year more to spike the hot tea with mint and sugar!! Hello from another Okie!! I live in Shawnee!!
Thank you Jessica! I am 62 years old, and you have inspired and taught me so much!! Blessings on you and your sweet family ❣️
That sloppy Joe mixture looks so good. My pressure canner is on its way I can’t wait to start canning all the things 😊
Thank you so much for this tutorial, I appreciate your explanation of the headspace, I have gone with the prescribed headspace and had failed seals.
God bless you and be your helper as you welcome this new little one, so happy for your family!
Those are beautiful filled shelves behind you! You are such an inspiration . I love to hear of mom's who homeschool and especially these days. God bless!
I love meals in a jar! Just took my leftover turkey and made bone broth out of it. Used the meat and added potatoes, carrots, celery, onions, green beans and corn. Added the broth and now I have pot pie starter! Canning that and a batch of broth as I type this. If you haven't tried this type of canning I encourage you to try. It's super convenient. 🙏♥️
I'm single and eat whole food, plant-based, so I can't eat many of the recipes you use, but I do learn a lot and get inspired by your videos. Best wishes for you, baby and family! 🙂
So helpful and encouraging - I too don’t have more freezer space. Blessings to all of your beautiful loving family!!
Jessica, you are an amazing woman, mom and wife. God bless you for the tips you share with all of us. Praying for the new baby and your family.
Bless you Jessica! You've had a difficult time lately with the loss of Chester. I'm so sorry. But now I'm looking forward to the baby coming xxx
There are only two of us, but having canned meals ready is great for us, too -- for camping, or for days when we're super busy (or feeling lazy). No thawing -- just pull something off the shelf. Right now I have canned steak slices, beef stew, chili, and two kinds of soup canned.
Hi Jessica, thank you for another great video! I am sure I am not alone in praying for you to have a safe and happy delivery when that time arrives. I have been canning most of my meals also, but some convenience items for me have been cooked parboiled rice, as it freezes great and can be added to chicken soups, frozen cooked ground beef for tacos, burritos, etc., and I have done cooked meat loaves. I love all the tips you give and look forward to meeting #8! Have a blessed week!
Love how you plan things that work best for whatever stage you and your family are in.
Your tips and encouragement are so helpful.
Blessings to you and your family and new baby! 🙏
Enjoy Sunday even more when I relax and watch you videos. While I don’t have children at home anymore I like the seeing what you preserve. Your no waste approach along with convenience foods are something I practice. Currently working on the left over Turkey for pot pie filling to can. So easy after a work day to have something that takes minutes to prepare. Blessings to you and your family. May you have a peaceful, healthy birth.
Jessica, you are amazing! I don't know how you do all that you do, let alone do it while pregnant, and so close to giving birth! When I was pregnant I wasn't good for anything the last month! Thank you so much for all that you do!
WOW!!!! I am just not sure how you take care of your large family as you do and still have time for all the information/knowledge you share with us. Thank you! GOD Bless.
Thank you for another great video Jessica. I love canning and prefer to have canned food over frozen due to my penchant of forgetting to get something out to thaw. ☺️. I totally understand being intimidated by pressure canning-I was for quite some time. I practiced with water bath canning and once I’d pickled everything I could think to pickle and made a few gallons of jam (still giving jars of that away ☺️), I braved up and broke out the pressure canner and my life has never been the same. I started with an electric pressure canner, and if you can afford one, I would recommend starting that way since the machine takes all the thinking and danger out of the process. About three runs in that and I graduated to an all American traditional canner, and I’ve actually had better seal rates with pressure canning than water bath, and it’s really not dangerous to do provided you follow directions.
Thankful for you and you time taken! Blessings to you and your family…praying for you as you Time grows near! ❤️
I've canned beef stew, chicken, pulled pork (without bbq sauce) for convience meals. I also have broths, potatoes, stock, Apple pie filling, tomato sauce, salsa verde. I'll pray you have an easy birth. Prayers for your family.
Jessica, PLEASE KEEP MAKING VIDEOS!!
You are a blessing! Thanks for sharing your ideas & daily routines. I’ve gotten so many things that you’ve taught me that I’ll carry forever!
Hello beautiful one how are you doing
I'm new to canning and I love it. I hadn't thought about sloppy joes. Gonna try that real soon. Praying for safe delivery, healthy baby and speedy recovery for mom. Can't wait to meet him/her. I'm team girl ........ love your seeet family Jessica. Be blessed.
It’s so amazing to me how RUclips connects so many people through interests etc. we don’t have much in common at all, Jessica. I live in a city, I’m single with no kids. I don’t have a farm or land or anything just a small backyard with a tiny garden. And even with all the differences, I find so much comfort and joy through what you choose to share of your life. Sometimes the internet can be wonderful :)
I appreciate the tip and wisdom on prepping with all small children. I’m expecting my 3rd baby here in a few weeks and that is a great idea to focus on breakfast most.
Happy to see you this morning! You look lovely today. I’m surprised at your energy level this close to giving birth. You’re an inspiration. Thanks for the tips and tricks Re: alternatives to freezer casseroles. I’m sure there’s lots of us who prefer not making the dairy heavy casserole dishes, especially if one was not raised on casserole type meals. My mom always served a protein, starch, veg and salad. Period! Haha
Take good care. Bless you.
Something I've been doing lately I always no matter how much I eyeball it is make 2 much spaghetti noodles so I've been freezing what is left with some extra spaghetti sauce. I have some now that I made last Monday that will be served tomorrow ( Monday is always our spaghetti meal day) I also cooked up 2 additional pounds of burger that day and froze it. I have construction workers here tomorrow so my day will be thrown off no worries thaw heat and serve dinner. So that is one thing that can be added to the deep freezers that isn't dairy heavy. Anna In Ohio
Good morning! You are truly amazing and inspiring! At our home it’s just my husband and I with the occasional other family visitors added in. I wanted to just emphasize that your approach is so useful for all family sizes to consider. As we are all figuring out how to cope with increasing food prices, shortages, etc., buying in bulk whenever possible and really avoiding waste becomes more necessary for everyone. I deal with food intolerances (dairy and gluten); and my husband has Type 2 diabetes, so many of the freezer meals don’t work well for us. I have one small chest freezer and one fridge/freezer so the storage is also an issue. Then, there are other issues such as electric power failures. Those happen short term, but frequently in our area. A few years ago our entire state went through horrible storms and flooding and many were without electricity for more than 2 weeks. A lot of freezer food was lost. Additionally, stores and gas stations were also impacted. So, my point is that families of all sizes and circumstances can greatly benefit from the invaluable information you are providing. Thank you and may God richly bless you and your beautiful, growing family ❤
Hi Donna. My best friend, who's in his 70's has got Type 2 diabetes as well so I like to can some nutritious meals for him to make sure he eats well. He lives on his own so is not always bothered to cook and will rely heavily on carbs like bread and pasta, which always mess up his sugar levels. I can meats and stews for him to encourage him to eat well.
I hope you and your husband are doing well despite the mess the world is in right now.
Very smart using your canned goods combined to get her to make a meal . I am saving up for a freeze dyers ! Hope you are getting plenty of rest for that new baby !
I must congratulate you. I am so inspired by your organizing and planning and making every bit count. Thank you! May you have a safe and happy delivery.
Thanks Jessica 🌹 you are a wonderful inspiration to a lot of people, prayers for a quick, easy delivery and healthy baby and family. You take care, don't wear yourself out trying to get everything done before time, a wore out Mom isn't a good thing come delivery time. Enjoy your time. Take care and God Bless 🌹❤️
Prayers for a safe easy delivery!!! Can’t wait to see the new little one
Thank you Jessica for another great video. Peace and Blessings to you and your family 💕
I enjoy your videos so much! Praying for you, your family and new baby!
I want to start canning but have been nervous, so thank you for the encouragement!!! Praying having your baby goes well!!! 🙏 ☺️
You are doing great with everything going on! So happy you & your family will be able to really enjoy your new arrival! Praying for everything to go as planned! 💖🙏💖
Jessica! You are such an inspiration to me. I love your outlook on life, your sweet wonderful family and the feel good feeling when I watch your show. Thinking all the best for you and yours . ❤️
I also cook with dietary restrictions, dairy and gluten. So you’ve given me some great ideas 😊❤thanks. Always enjoy catching up with you and your daily life. Stay well, rest as much as possible for the new person coming into your lives. Jessica you are such a thoughtful and loving mum your children are very lucky.
Continued prayers for you, always look forward to your Sunday videos.
You continually amaze me! In my youth, I nested exactly the same way. You inspire me always! Now I just share with my kids and their families. Thank you ❤. Can’t wait for the baby🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I just did freeze drying of a vegetable bean and sausage soup. And I canned 9 pints of beans, and 9 pints of vegetable stock for us. Squeezing it in between snow melting and the next storm coming. I can outdoors with my pressure canner on a camp stove, the all American pressure canner is too big for my glass top electric stove. But I would not trade it for anything!!. I waited for years to get it, and only wished that I had made the decision sooner, it really upped my canning game. Wow!!
I can't wait to try the sloppy joe recipe 😋. God bless you and your family, your videos are a true gift.
I am so excited for your new baby to come into this outside world. I can only imagine how conveneient all of your very hard work will soon be paying off.
Hello beautiful one how are you doing
After watching this video, I have bought a pressure canner for my family! I've been trying to come up with some easy meals to throw together when I'm busy and my freezers always seem to be full too. I've been watching your videos for awhile now and just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy watching them. You obviously put a lot of thought and care into them and it really shows.
I love your channel.
"If I can do it you can do it"
Thank you for you positive ways!! I think your amazing and love watching your videos!!
Glad to see your happy face today! I have never pressure canned but I’m going to give it try. Try and rest while you can. Looking forward to meeting the new arrival!
Thank you for putting words to this. I also find that I have gone more and more away from freezer meals. I do freeze leftovers, but those will go with my husband and kids to work and school. More and more I find that I get more out of my freezer by freezing pre prepped veggies instead of whole meals. It’s a lot more flexible. This way I can pull out a few cans, and add some pre prepped veggies to it if needed. I also like to keep premade pie crust and pizza dough in the freezer. Like you I MRE’s are canned. I do a lot of the same bases as you do too. You are right that it helps a lot. Have a blessed week.
Love your videos! It's just my husband and I, but have found your videos informative and inspirational. At 70+ I'm still learning. Finally learnedcto make biscuits and pie crust this year. Praying for a safe delivery and another healthy baby.
You are such a great role model Jessica, I hope all goes smoothly for you and both baby and yourself are safe and stress free. Lx
I always get so excited to see a sit down video from you! Thanks for sharing!
Hello beautiful one how are you doing
Jessica, idk if you know but you can make really tasty cream of mushroom soup with oat milk or nut milk & beef broth or onion broth and they freeze really well. God bless.
We do the same but add in a can of mushrooms that I can. It gives it a mushroom brothy flavor.
Blessings on you. You are so smart and strong good mama
I love that you do ready made canned meals. With freezer meals if you lose power it’s a big concern. Thank you
Love watching your videos! Great to be prepared! Blessings for the new baby❤
You inspire me. Know that today you were prayed for. Praying for a safe delivery.
Thank you so much ❤️
I love seeing the stocked shelves in the background - what a comfort it must be to have all that food ready to go! I do a lot of preserving using my freezer - I store seasonal produce as well as tons of made from scratch foods…but I also want to learn how to do pressure canning. That’s my goal for 2023!! Thanks for all the inspiration and motivation!! 😊😘
Thank you Jessica! I look forward all week to your video. We're a day ahead here on Guam so I normally sit down after everyone is fed and out the door and enjoy your latest creation on my Monday morning. It really inspires me for the week. I love watching your pressure canning videos. I just received my pressure canner I actually went with the NESCO electric pressure canner. I had wanted an All American for the stove but relying on solar panels the electric one consumes less energy than my stove top. I'm just starting to use it so pray for me I read all the reviews and pro's and con's so we'll see. I have about 60 wild chickens I need to process and like you I'm out of freezer space. We get a limited amount of certain items on island so alot of my freezer space goes to cheese and seasonal produce that I grow like bananas and mangoes that are harder to can. Watching you can meat has been an eye opener for me and gave me the confidence to try it. Also living on an island fish is abundant and I'd like to try pressure canning some fish. We went 3 months recently with no chicken in our commissary due to supply chain issues so relying on what we can catch, raise and process ourselves is very important. Also I'm trying cubed pumpkin for the first time we got an excess of pumpkins this year which is super rare and they were .19 cents a pound so I'm going to try your method, and make roasted pumpkin seeds. Thank you again!
Great video Jessica. Hey if you freeze your biscuits unbaked….you can pour you pie filling in a casserole dish and top with unbaked biscuits and sprinkle them with a little sugar for a quick cobbler type desert and bake. Look forward to hearing the news 💕🇨🇦
Jessica your just an inspiration. Mike & I have been gardening and preserving for over 30 years and we know how much work goes into it. To know what your eating and the savings is why we continue. Mike is a retired chef over 28 years and it also what we love to do. We do the same for making quick meals. We do lot's of canning and preserving on our channel. Blessings, Rochelle
This has been so helpful to me! I do lots of freezer meals but would love to have shelf stable prepped meals around here especially for lunch as it’s our hardest meal too!
Thank you for posting a video during baby watch AND a holiday week! You are truly amazing.
Hello beautiful one how are you doing
Prayers for you and your family. God bless your delivery and keep you safe.
Wishing you all the best with the birth of your baby.
