I am a Central Oregon cattle ranchers wife and empty nester. I wish I would have prevented burnout by having less stuff, saying no more often but taking more adventures. I am a homebody, but getting away and seeing new things doing new things and meeting new people is short-term inspiring to take home.
my favorite thing to do these days when making pizza is to put a thin layer of basil pesto on the crust then the tomato sauce, toppings, then cheese. Really adds a zing of flavor! When I was a young mother, the playpen was where the baby or toddler went. The backpack was a new thing when I had my second one but since I worked outside the home, it wasn't something we used. Good tips! I really need to come to the Pacific NW and have dinner with you, yummy!
I've been in the thick of it for 15 years now. Lol. I have 6 children My oldest is 15 and youngest is 3. Homeschool them all in the beautiful state of Wisconsin. Some days are better than others, but I love every season of Motherhood so far. God bless and have a wonderful day. 😊
Great video! Very good ideas and sound advice 🙂 I have 2 older teens now but I still get overwhelmed when life gets crunchy and everyone seems to need something from me. Making lists(on paper) has truly helped me clear my mind and get refocused 🙏🙂
@@annamccosker7878 I think when it comes to families, it’s always when it rains it pours. And then there is a clearing. You just have to ride all the waves :-)
Im in the thick of it. 5 kids with my oldest not yet ten and my youngest a newborn. Im in a great place mentally right now. Im very much enjoying motherhood ❤
I love to make a pesto with my extra cilantro and then freeze it in mason jars. It’s super easy to defrost for a quick weeknight pasta or gnocchi dinner.
@@TheDuvallHomestead it definitely tastes “fresher” than basil. If it’s too cilantro-y, a basil-cilantro blend is also super tasty and has more of a traditional pesto flavour.
I've been in the thick with my three children and now I'm back in the thick with 2 of my grandchildren 2yr and 4yr I'm a gluten for punishment lol 😂 I have 3 other grandchildren age's 13, 10,and 8 😊

I will definitely try that pesto tip. And I still use the play pin! But boy am I happy about the backpack 😅😅😅

great video! I make chimichurri sauce with excess parsley and it freezes great!
@@mjsalome7751 great idea!! Turning it into a sauce and then freezing is a great way to preserve it
Very nice sharing 💖💖💖💐💐💐
Thank you! ❤
What size is your Pullman Pan. It looks like it is for a one pound loaf. 😊

Really?! I wonder how the parsley would taste. If we get any more I may try that!
