I'm trying to just do the Next Best Thing.

      My uncle is going through the same thing kind of. He has been trying to sell to move away to a safer city/town. His house is the lowest comparable on the market but due to the interest rate being so high no one can afford it! Because he owns it outright he has made the decision to just leave it locked up on the market and just move. Do you have an unused bedroom or basement that you could turn into possible extra income? Can you go to a foodbank or pantry to help supplement your food budget therefore freeing up some money for your house payments? Do you have friends or family looking for a place so you can combine efforts, live together so both families can save and pull ahead? Have you considered trading houses with someone. If you are looking to downsize into something smaller maybe you can find someone with a smaller house that is starting their family and needs something bigger and you can swap house payments. I will add you to my prayers. So many people are going through similar trials right now with the cost of housing and inflation on everything! Remember you are not alone!

    If it is flaky..
    It’s done..
    If it still has any resistance.. cook a little longer..

I feel like the people in all the other RUclips tutorials have lost their heads, doing ridiculous things like cleaning it with only salt and then discarding huge amounts of salt. I cannot find traditional knowledge on how to maintain a cast iron pan, at least not from what I've been searching.

    • @rachaelsupadventures
      @rachaelsupadventures 4 месяца назад

      I got a kit and directions with my Lodge pan. It came with a plastic scraper and a bristle brush that resembles the brushes men used years ago to apply the soap to their face to shave and a spray can of cooking oil. You use hot water and scrape out then use the brush to remove whatever is left rinse. Wipe with paper towel spray with the oil wipe again and you are done. I think the oil is canola.

      She is fine and posts a lot on Instagram. Guessing that making a good RUclips and all the editing it requires to make it look perfect is what keeps her at only making one a month or two or three. Personally I don't have to hear that perfect voice or the perfect Stepford family. I want to see real life. I started watching because she believes in God and cooks from scratch and has a similar life as mine minus all those kids! Mine are grown babies having babies now! Expecting my 4th grandchild in July! Just like Laramie my husband and I bought a house sight unseen for cash that is a fixer upper. And we are debt free.
