I found your channel early this afternoon. It all started with gardening spinach. The next thing I know, I've spent 8 hours with you as I cleaned my house, made my grocery list, learned how to harvest my crops, freeze my food, and cook 40 meals in bulk. I feel like you're my favorite neighbor who I visit and do holistically fulfilling domestic things together. Thank you for the quality time and superior content. 💛
Hi Becky, I am sure you now have your little bundle in your arms by now. Huge congratulations to you and your precious new family. Well done you wonderful woman!
@@marytillison8392 That baby better hurry up...too close to Christms and they'll receive one gift for both birthday/christmas for the rest of their lives! LOL :D
So real talk. I love that you're messy. I love you don't pause to scrape salt off the counter, or fast forward through how hard it is to break up lard initially. I love that you share with us you have a paper with a recipe rather than the polished RUclips perfect lives. It makes me feel like I can emulate this. That it's real and friendly. This is an amazing brand. And I'm so impressed by you. Thank you
I totally agree! It feels like I'm hanging out with a friend in her kitchen, not watching a highly-produced cooking show (nothing wrong with those btw, I just really appreciate the realness here)
Yes! I put on her latest video and do dishes, laundry, cleaning, and of course cook. It's like having family in the kitchen with you. Missed that. Feels good.
Yes!! seeing her garden or kitchen gives me the inspiration to do stuff, and getting to listen to her work while I work feels like I'm being productive with my grandmother or my friends ❤
Agreed!! She truly is a blessing in my bedroom binge watching her shows. I even giggle when she makes a mess just because that’s our Becky. Such passion and the mess comes along with it and being clumsy while pregnant.
She said it was 1 December when she recorded this, she told us the date when she said about being 39 weeks preggie. She is either a very strong woman or was ultra nesting.
I have 6 babies and this is the BESSSSSTTTTTTTTT decision you will make for your postpartum healing!!! Get your 40 days of rest, girl!! You deserve it!
Becky, I'm a 68 year old woman in NW Tennessee. I've never really enjoyed cooking. My career was about all I could handle. You've taught me so much. My sister & I discuss your latest videos soon after you post them. You're adorable & my Sis & I have virtually adopted you. Good luck with your precious gift & I will pray for you & Josh as you welcome your little one into the world. May God's bless you both.
The nesting phase...I was an absolute powerhouse, I'd got everything in the house washed, dried, ironed and put away, my cupboards were immaculate and when I found myself polishing my dustbin, I knew I'd done everything. I hope you're all well, and that you're adjusting to parenthood - it's the greatest adventure ever. x
Amen yes indeed it is and now I have two beautiful granddaughters and praying I have great grand baby's. I tell my family about this sweet girl all the time and my granddaughters laugh at ask if they should refer to her as their sister ❤
I love hanging out with you. There's no editing out the messy. There's no annoying music. Your words have meaning (you don't talk just to fill space). You're encouraging us and sharing amazing recipes. I'm truly thankful I discovered your channel.
I feel exactly the same way. Trying to catch up to the present as fast as I can but it's taking days, even watching 3 or 4 a night. So much fun, so inspiring and encouraging. I really needed Becky and her channel in my life. ❤
Woman, you move mountains. You're amazing and always inspirational. With baby acre home, now is the time cuddle up quite. Smell that baby's head, have your feelings out loud with yourself and Josh, adjust, breathe. Please don't stress or overwork yourself for your fan base's sake. We love you. Take time with your family. Congratulations to all of you! ❤
She has been so busy..these recipes she dated 12-1, so we'll be seeing more pre-recorded videos for a bit now. But, so okay!! It was incredibly thoughtful for her to do this for all of us!! Praying for her, Josh and the new baby.🎄💕
@@bonneymoseley1159 I would say yes; this was recorded on Dec 1st, 10 days ago, and she said she was 39 weeks then plus she had mentioned her due date in past which was appx a week ago AND she has not posted on Instagram in about 4 or 5 days when in past she was posting nearly daily 😊 but again she has not posted the “official” announcement yet that I know of 😊
Hi from Cornwall, UK! The Cornish pasty didn't only have a vegetable, protein and starch... one half was the 'meat' side, so the 'main course', the other half had a sweet or fruit dessert, so a complete meal in one. Also the crust was thick to give them something to hold on to - and didn't eat, because the miner would often have arsenic on his hands.
My father was born near Sunderland and my grandfather came from a miners family and worked in the mines as a young boy. Yes the pasties have a think sturdy crust and the crimped edge was held onto and then thrown away due to the mess of the miners hands. My grandmother always made pasties with canned corned beef, potato, carrot, onion and peas. She never put butter in it though. I'd think the mince would release enough fat by itself.
Love seeing that notification telling me you've uploaded a new video 🥰 hope all is well and you're getting some much needed rest. We're all assuming your beautiful bundle of joy has arrived and if so congratulations to you and Josh. Enjoy every moment because babies grow so fast. If bubba hasn't arrived then wishing you all the best. Sending lots of love from myself and my family and all of your viewers 🥰
@@debbiedavid4392 in the video of her last ultrasound with Josh it seemed she actually started to say “he” but quickly caught herself only getting out the h sound, stopped and then reworded as “the baby” … of course I could totally be wrong 😊
Watching Becky is just like being in the kitchen with your best friend. These videos bring me such joy and comfort. Thank you for that, Becky!! We love all of the knowledge you give us and all of the time you spend with us.
So this was recorded 10 days ago since today is December 11. You’ve been super quiet on IG, so I’ll be super surprised if you haven’t had your baby yet! It sure does look like you’re going to be very prepared in the meal department so you can enjoy being a new momma! Congratulations in advance to you and Josh ❤❤
Every one of these videos have been a blessing to me and I'm sure the rest of us here! Thank you for all this work! I know we're all enjoying! Thoughts and prayers are with you all! 👶💖
I said to my husband, "Let's watch a cheesy Christmas movie while I fold laundry." He didn't look thrilled!😁 But then I found that Becky had uploaded this amazing video and my husband was saved!! He is puttering in the garage and the laundry is folded! Yay!! Thanks Becky for such great motivating content! I'm still waiting patiently for any news of the baby.
The Cornish pasty would be made with lamb and turnip carrots and onions and the wives would make them one side savory and one side sweet with a jam fill with a thick crimped edge so they could hold the pasty at the edge so that the coal hands wouldn't touch the main pasty. Love the videos Becky, look forward to them so much.
Yay from Michigan!! I am from Bay City, Michigan. I am binge watching your video's. I love watching your video's. Congratulations on your baby boy! He is very lucky to have parents like you.
These are amazing recipes. Sometimes when I watch people make freezer meals on RUclips, it’s not something I would want to make. They don’t use the cooking techniques to really build the flavor but Becky does. These are recipes and meals you want to make for your family. Everything looks delicious.
I agree! There are a bunch I've watched a few videos of and every single recipe is just stuff dumped in and not appetizing, so I gave up and stopped watching. I've made a TON of Becky's recipes and have loved them all.
@@ALee-xf2vm Same. We enjoyed the buttered rolls recipe for thanksgiving. I now only make the browned butter chocolate chip cookies she shared. They are what all other chocolate-chip cookies wish they were. 😉
Becky, I think I fell in love with you when you were giving your chickens ice baths. You are amazing and I love when you post new videos...the longer, the better. When you're famous I will feel like a very proud grandma.
Well, if you're 39 weeks with child on December 1st, and today is December 11th, that may mean that Josh and Becky are Daddy & Mommy by now. I can't wait to know if Baby is boy or girl. Prayers for an easy delivery and we are just so excited and happy for you both. You'll be the very best parents and all the grandparents will be so excited too. Congratulations when baby makes 3. God bless all 3 of you!🙌💞🙏
I was going to say the same thing! I hope you have had an easy birth and relaxing recovery, or if your little bun is still baking, that he or she joins you really really soon! Much love from Minnesota!

Your portion sizes are amazing! I can actually use them for my family. Your bolognese or meatballs could be stretched easily to 6 or even8 meals just for the two of you but it also allows for people to come by and join in :)
It's like you are a motivational speaker!! You are very good at speaking while you are cooking! I swear someday you will have your own food network show!! Great job Becky with all you have accomplished in this video!!! I'm impressed with your confidence!
I know this video is probably pre recorded but can I just say how excited I am for you Becky! I hope you’re taking all the time you need. Thank you for an awesome video in these stressful times!
Thank you Becky for all you do for us.... I think I'm gonna do the pasties next...if we don't see you in a couple days...happy baby birthing and first meet n greet...
I'm assuming you had your bundle of joy! All the best to you and your beautiful family! Your child is so lucky to be born in such a tight family with wonderful aunts, uncles, and grandparents!
WOOHOO, just opened my email for the first time today and saw Acre Homestead's newsletter announcing BABY BOY. Wow, I was convinced it was going to be a girl. CONGRATS to Becky, Josh and Baby Boy!!!
Never in my life have I been as productive as you managed to be at 39 weeks!😄 When I was pregnant I was a beached whale at that point! I wish I had more freezer space because these look amazing for a quick meal.
I really respect the fact that you are preparing food for you and Josh ahead and not completely counting on others. Your parents can help with whatever else Josh is unable to do for. Respectfully, Deb
Congratulations on your new baby boy. Loved getting the email today. Congratulations again. Acre Homestead
INTRODUCING…
BABY ACRE We now have a beautiful, healthy, sweet little boy! We are home and enjoying our time as a new family. Full birth story to come! Love, Becky, Josh, and Baby Acre
My youngest just turned 2 yesterday and seeing how you've been commenting less I feel like a congratulations are in order for you too! Congratulations!!!! I hope all is going heavenly and you're taking a wonderful maternity leave ♥️
It depends on where you are from in Michigan as to pasties being a staple. It is a Upper (as in upper peninsula) thing and the copper miners and loggers ate them. You can find them in diners in the U.P. and upper lower Michigan (finger tip area). Wow, girl!! Keep up that energy flow! I pray your labor will be quick and uneventful. May your baby be born healthy and whole. Soak up the love! 🥰
I’m sitting home sick with Covid. Thank you so much for the video. I watch all your videos and was so happy to see it was over an hour. Took my mind off being sick. I want to go make these recipes once I’m well. Wish I would have thought to put freezer meals up before I had my son.
I love how you always clean out every bit of food from the bowl or processor when making meals. You don’t waste anything, so many others I watch waste lol I know a silly thing to be happy about
QVC item number for the 9 x 13 glass baker with locking lid is K68411 and they have free shipping today (Sunday). You rock Becky! So excited for you and Josh!
I am so glad to see you finally had the time to do a load of postpartum meals. I was a little worried that you would run out of time at this busy time of year, and because you never know when babies decide to arrive, it can be quite a shock at how all consuming having a baby is, especially your first baby. Well done, all looks delicious as usual. Good luck with all the things. 🥰
I just found you two days ago: what an inspiration you are! I feel as if my culinary creative juices have been re-ignited. God bless you, your hubby and precious little one!
Thank you for your videos Becky! One of the problems of watching TV chefs is the idea that only a freshly cooked meal is edible - after 2 kids I've finally learned to make double and make my next meal easier. Good luck with your labor and God bless you and your family ❤️
Becky,you are incredible 😍!! Best multi tasker I've ever seen, you teach us soo many things in just one video, the Food Network has got nothing on you !! HA!! I just love it when you taste test ,you're eyes get really big cause it tastes sooo good,I swear I can almost taste it too !!!
The multitasking is what brings me in. I'm not one to follow recipes much. Unless I am looking for something specific. We are making 10 freezer meals , now that's amazing skills! The fact that you are 39 weeks simply makes you a super hero!
Becky, Josh and precious baby acre! Congratulations and much love to you all. I pray all went well. But right now you all need to rest and snuggle a lot. Take this time to get to know your little boy. What a beautiful family! Welcome to the world baby acre. You are going to be well loved❤️
I love when I have a prep to do and I find you have a video to watch and listen to while I’m in the kitchen. I love hanging wit you! Don’t get me wrong, I love my soux chefs. But I love how you and I have the same heart about food. I hope you are taking some time to reflect in these last days before your lil bit of joy comes to connect with Josh so that you are in sync when your family becomes a family of three. You can’t know what it will look like until the moment is here. I pray you let your mom join in as much as possible. There is no greater joy for a mom than to see her daughter be a mom. I feared when my daughter was pregnant but to see her take her baby to her breast for the first time was more joy than my eyes could handle. Tears flowed like Niagara Falls. I know you’re not your Mom’s first daughter to have a baby. But your sisters are not you.
Hi Becky! I was so excited to see this video today. Thank you for making these videos to "fill in" our time while we're waiting for news from you. I noticed this video was recorded over a week ago (as you mentioned it being December 1st), so I hope this means you're getting some much-deserved rest. If your little one has arrived, I hope he or she is healthy and easily contented and I hope you are all adjusting well to the new addition. Our thoughts are with you - Many hugs, love, and light from Northwest Georgia!
Literally just made my WHOLE DAY! I’m working 12 hours overtime today, and tomorrow I’ll be 6 weeks pregnant I don’t even have the energy to think. You’re a superwoman!!!!!!! 💕💕💕 love from ARKANSAS
Just got through making 10 dozen tamales for family and friends. This is the first time I have got to rest today and watch the video, I hope you, Josh, and the baby are doing good God bless you and your family.
As pasties are a ancient Cornwall traditional meal. Turnip is never added and it's always thinly sliced steak and white pepper. But I do like to see variety from different parts. It's all good fun.
It’s amazing to think pasties were first made around 1150 in Cornwall in the UK and they’re still being made today😀 It just shows that good food will always be passed on and kept as favourites 😀 We even make them in Australia 🥰
Sweet Becky, I’m thinking about you and your sweet baby and praying for you each day for a safe and happy delivery! I can’t wait to meet him or her! ❤ I think you are truly amazing! I found your channel when it was fairly new and felt like I found a sweet friend! Your channel has grown amazingly fast and here we are watching an hour + long video of you cooking and living your life and it already has over 100k views in less than a day! Simply amazing! A true testament to your sweetness and relatability, I believe! ❤
I’m in awe of your full day of cooking at 38 weeks . What a marathon day and all completed with such a good heart . Praying you can get some rest before the baby comes and thank you so much for sharing your recipes and making it look easy . 🧑🍳 0:02
Says it's about 2 teaspoons, proceeds to dump about 3 tablespoons. That's southern grandma cooking right there. Love it. So glad I just found your videos. I've been thinking about getting into meal preps, but never had any idea where to start.
I was thinking about you this morning and was betting myself thy baby was here already. 😂. Yup you’re absolutely nesting “Becky style-in the kitchen”....which is a bonus for us! You are amazing and I’ve learned so much from you. Thank you for all the videos you pump out. I wish you a wonderful birth experience and a speedy recovery postpartum! Much love from the east coast..,,Georgia!! Xoxo susan ❤
Becky, You have inspired me with your dinner freezer meals. I have MS and fatigue is a real issue for me. I am a canner and have a pretty good size pantry. My husband bought me the Harvest Right Med. Freeze Dryer but won’t be here until January. I have the most energy in the early part of the day so by evening I’m exhausted. Doing some freezer meals early in the day seems like a perfect way to have something yummy for dinner when I’m too tired to cook. I hope your relaxing with Josh & baby. God Bless you and your family.🙏♥️🙏
Congratulations Becky and Josh on your new arrival, baby boy. I am amazed that you didn't slow down in feeding us with productive ways to cook and gardening. I pray you heal quickly so you can enjoy your first child baby boy Acres. Another addition added to your life jouney. Best wishes to your family 👪 😃😍❤❤❤
39 weeks pregnant ! You reminded my sister. She work in that until the last minute moving the furniture because the lay out was perfect. Well the good worked out send her to the hospital over night and 20 minutes my baby niece was welcomed to this. Rash world. ❤❤❤❤ Ps. Do you know why scratch pantry website isn’t working? I will love to try the sweet and sour meatball. I am running out of ideas for this season. Thank you very much and good luck
Automatically liking this because of the video length. These are the videos I'm going to rewatch when the baby gets here and y'all take a break. Thank you for all this free content!!!
Those containers with the snap on lids are from Lock N Lock and yes they are available on QVC. These meals look delicious and will definitely help after the baby comes. Great video Becky! ❤️
I'm glad you got to prep all these meals before the birth. I hope the birth went well and you're recovering, and happily holding a precious bundle in your arms. grateful that even now you still post the vids you premade, so organised :)
Becky you look amazing for thirty nine weeks pregnant! Love your videos. They are so inspiring. Enjoy being a wonderful Mum. Sending my love from the UK. X
Becky- I have really grown to really love how functional your kitchen is and your whole food setup. Want to see more of your chickens and the new outside areas. I am so happy for you that you found this wonderful space. Anxiously, happily awaiting baby arrival. Hugs to Josh and you.
You're amazing Becky. I'm inspired :) You're right about the coal miners and pasties. The traditional shape has the seam at the top and a flattened base because the miners could use the thick, firm seam as a handle when eating the pasty, throwing away that seam section when they were done. That way they could avoid eating the coal dust. As a 60 yo Aussie, I have never had lasagne made with ricotta - it's always bechamel sauce! The only difference for me is that the top layer is noodles then bechamel topped with a couple of different cheeses. It's a winner.
Spoiler from the newsletter (I hope it’s ok to share, I know you all will be as excited as I was to hear): “We now have a beautiful, healthy, sweet little boy! We are home and enjoying our time as a new family. Full birth story to come!” Isn’t that just wonderful 👏❤ So happy for our friend (as she calls us all) and her sweet little family. What a wonderful loving home to be born into. Best of luck, Becky, Josh and baby Acre!
Hello, my spouse and I are a long time and loving subscribers of Becky but neither of us we were subscribed to the newsletter. (We fixed that!) Thanks for including this blurb so that we are all in the loop, was there anything else that she posted? Thanks again!
Can't wait until I have time to finish this! Becky, you are so industrious. All of this effort is a gift to yourself after the baby comes. Thanks for taking us along.
So excited for you and Josh having your baby soon! You look so great and doing so well nesting. May God bless your labor and delivery Becky! Also, your meals are actually doubled since you make enough for leftovers! Amazing Lady!
Hi Becky! I just pulled my first 5 pints of home canned broth out of my new pressure canner and I’m so proud! Thank you for the confidence and instructions! I’m working on having a pantry like yours!
I'm so glad that you were able to get the freezer meals done before baby. It is going to be such a help to you. You are amazing!!! Pam- I'm sooo proud to see you using a timer! I think you'll find it really does make life easier 😌.
I saw on Food Network they said that even though you sliced the chicken in half to make it thinner that you still should pound it that makes it more tender. I have found this to be true.
Wow Becky you inspire me so much!!! I’m 39 weeks pregnant and should probably prep some freezer meals today before baby comes!!! I’m impressed you were able to knock out all these meals in one day😮❤
Becky, You are a Gem! Thank you so much for planning ahead so we won't have Becky withdrawal while you and Josh anxiously wait for your baby to arrive. I know everyone is excited for your family. Many Blessings!
Good morning Becky, hope all is well with you. You have been heavy on my mind. You, Josh and baby are in my prayers. That you have a quick and easy delivery and healing of your body.🥰🙏🙏🙏
Pasties are very popular here in Britain. A lot of time Tumeric features in them, especially cheese ones. If you couldn't do egg wash, I would have suggested a milk wash with a tiny amount of Tumeric in it for colour. You've worked very hard there. I totally relate! Josh is a very lucky man!!

Treat indeed!!! we always need more time!

The nesting phase...I was an absolute powerhouse, I'd got everything in the house washed, dried, ironed and put away, my cupboards were immaculate and when I found myself polishing my dustbin, I knew I'd done everything.
I hope you're all well, and that you're adjusting to parenthood - it's the greatest adventure ever. x
🤣🤣 polishing the bin.
that one made me laugh. Thank you for sharing!
Man I wish I would have that lol. I am 35 weeks tomorrow and I am struggling to get off my butt and get anything done...

Polishing your dust pans?!?..... That is too funny!!!!
That was what I said, too, when she said how many meals she was making… I said “she must be nesting”..
Over an hour?!!! Becky you have blessed us today ☺️ I hope you're doing well and relaxing 💖

My grandmother always made pasties with canned corned beef, potato, carrot, onion and peas. She never put butter in it though. I'd think the mince would release enough fat by itself.

Watching Becky is just like being in the kitchen with your best friend. These videos bring me such joy and comfort. Thank you for that, Becky!! We love all of the knowledge you give us and all of the time you spend with us.
I made 17 different freezer meals when I had my third baby. It was honestly the best thing I could do for myself. =)
I wish I had the space to do more because it definitely helped with my daughter!!
So this was recorded 10 days ago since today is December 11. You’ve been super quiet on IG, so I’ll be super surprised if you haven’t had your baby yet! It sure does look like you’re going to be very prepared in the meal department so you can enjoy being a new momma! Congratulations in advance to you and Josh ❤❤
@@seylerfam7025 she is having a girl?
I thought the same thing. 39 weeks on the 1st of December and it’s 10 days later? Hmm?!?
I was wondering the same thing. Hmmm!
@@amysheffield9583 when did they announce if it was a boy or girl? I watch all her videos ?
@@seylerfam7025 That got me so excited that I had to rewatch that video and turn up the volume. Sadly, she said 'the nose'.
I feel like you had your baby..☺Congratulations if you did!🤗 Praying all is well, and you are getting all the rest you need!❤
Every one of these videos have been a blessing to me and I'm sure the rest of us here! Thank you for all this work! I know we're all enjoying! Thoughts and prayers are with you all! 👶💖
It's a boy!! She just confirmed it in her Scratch Pantry news letter!!! 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Girl, I don’t know how you popped up on my algorithm, but I’m so thankful!!!!!! Your recipes are SO in line with my tastes!!!!! I’m in heaven!!!!!!
Becky had a BOY! "We are home and enjoying our time as a new family". Congratulations!
Becky pregnant eating granola (she just made) is a whole mood! Lol I love it ❤ Waiting on that baby announcement!
I said to my husband, "Let's watch a cheesy Christmas movie while I fold laundry." He didn't look thrilled!😁 But then I found that Becky had uploaded this amazing video and my husband was saved!! He is puttering in the garage and the laundry is folded! Yay!! Thanks Becky for such great motivating content! I'm still waiting patiently for any news of the baby.
I usually fold all of my laundry while I watch her shows too and get ideas of what to make for dinner lol 😂
I do too!!😆
Omg….Becky you are amazing. Thank you for sharing and good luck with the new arrival. Love and blessings to you all. Xx
@@traceystewart6232 I think this is a rerun. She must have had her little bundle. Can't wait to hear what she had
@@maddymadagascar That is the best =)
The Cornish pasty would be made with lamb and turnip carrots and onions and the wives would make them one side savory and one side sweet with a jam fill with a thick crimped edge so they could hold the pasty at the edge so that the coal hands wouldn't touch the main pasty. Love the videos Becky, look forward to them so much.
@@cynthiafisher9907 I suppose she didn't want coal dust on her linens, they ate the pasty but threw away the part they held
If I was your neighbor I would want to come over and cook with you all day.... Your are so comforting 🤗
Yay from Michigan!! I am from Bay City, Michigan. I am binge watching your video's. I love watching your video's. Congratulations on your baby boy! He is very lucky to have parents like you.
These are amazing recipes. Sometimes when I watch people make freezer meals on RUclips, it’s not something I would want to make. They don’t use the cooking techniques to really build the flavor but Becky does. These are recipes and meals you want to make for your family. Everything looks delicious.
Yes, so many are just dumping premade sauces or soups with some meat and veg. Not appetizing at all!
I agree! There are a bunch I've watched a few videos of and every single recipe is just stuff dumped in and not appetizing, so I gave up and stopped watching. I've made a TON of Becky's recipes and have loved them all.
@@ALee-xf2vm Same. We enjoyed the buttered rolls recipe for thanksgiving. I now only make the browned butter chocolate chip cookies she shared. They are what all other chocolate-chip cookies wish they were. 😉
Becky, I think I fell in love with you when you were giving your chickens ice baths. You are amazing and I love when you post new videos...the longer, the better. When you're famous I will feel like a very proud grandma.
Well, if you're 39 weeks with child on December 1st, and today is December 11th, that may mean that Josh and Becky are Daddy & Mommy by now. I can't wait to know if Baby is boy or girl. Prayers for an easy delivery and we are just so excited and happy for you both. You'll be the very best parents and all the grandparents will be so excited too. Congratulations when baby makes 3. God bless all 3 of you!🙌💞🙏
If you are on her email list, she did post when she was due in her recent newsletter. Should be by the end of the week at the absolute latest!
I was going to say the same thing! I hope you have had an easy birth and relaxing recovery, or if your little bun is still baking, that he or she joins you really really soon! Much love from Minnesota!
I have four kids, each came in the 42. week 🤷🏽♀

Your portion sizes are amazing! I can actually use them for my family. Your bolognese or meatballs could be stretched easily to 6 or even8 meals just for the two of you but it also allows for people to come by and join in :)
It's like you are a motivational speaker!! You are very good at speaking while you are cooking! I swear someday you will have your own food network show!! Great job Becky with all you have accomplished in this video!!! I'm impressed with your confidence!
I would rather see one of her videos then anything on TV
@@justmepraying agree! No need to go on Food Network - she’ll have her own ❤
I know this video is probably pre recorded but can I just say how excited I am for you Becky! I hope you’re taking all the time you need. Thank you for an awesome video in these stressful times!
That baby's coming soon
@@christyfox1477 …that’s exactly what I thought too, lol….I’m so happy and excited for them!
Thank you Becky for all you do for us.... I think I'm gonna do the pasties next...if we don't see you in a couple days...happy baby birthing and first meet n greet...
@@christyfox1477 I believe she has already had her baby… 😊
H HOW NICE......
I'm assuming you had your bundle of joy! All the best to you and your beautiful family! Your child is so lucky to be born in such a tight family with wonderful aunts, uncles, and grandparents!
WOOHOO, just opened my email for the first time today and saw Acre Homestead's newsletter announcing BABY BOY. Wow, I was convinced it was going to be a girl. CONGRATS to Becky, Josh and Baby Boy!!!
I’m so excited for the new year, the new baby, the new garden.... roll on 2023!
What an amazing session!!! One of your last uninterrupted cooking sessions before you become a parent!!!!
Great to see you and hope all is going well for you and Josh. Have a safe delivery if it Baby isn’t here already. God Bless.
Never in my life have I been as productive as you managed to be at 39 weeks!😄 When I was pregnant I was a beached whale at that point! I wish I had more freezer space because these look amazing for a quick meal.
I really respect the fact that you are preparing food for you and Josh ahead and not completely counting on others. Your parents can help with whatever else Josh is unable to do for. Respectfully, Deb
Congratulations on your new baby boy. Loved getting the email today. Congratulations again. Acre Homestead
INTRODUCING…
BABY ACRE
We now have a beautiful, healthy, sweet little boy! We are home and enjoying our time as a new family. Full birth story to come!
Love,
Becky, Josh, and Baby Acre
ACRE HOMESTEAD
My youngest just turned 2 yesterday and seeing how you've been commenting less I feel like a congratulations are in order for you too! Congratulations!!!! I hope all is going heavenly and you're taking a wonderful maternity leave ♥️
It depends on where you are from in Michigan as to pasties being a staple. It is a Upper (as in upper peninsula) thing and the copper miners and loggers ate them. You can find them in diners in the U.P. and upper lower Michigan (finger tip area).
Wow, girl!! Keep up that energy flow! I pray your labor will be quick and uneventful. May your baby be born healthy and whole. Soak up the love! 🥰
I’m sitting home sick with Covid. Thank you so much for the video. I watch all your videos and was so happy to see it was over an hour. Took my mind off being sick. I want to go make these recipes once I’m well. Wish I would have thought to put freezer meals up before I had my son.
OmG baby acre is here!!!!! Just got my newsletter and he is here
I love how you always clean out every bit of food from the bowl or processor when making meals. You don’t waste anything, so many others I watch waste lol I know a silly thing to be happy about
I agree
These all look delicious! And the fact that you’d all of this at 39 weeks pregnant? Amazing! Awesome job, Momma!
QVC item number for the 9 x 13 glass baker with locking lid is K68411 and they have free shipping today (Sunday). You rock Becky! So excited for you and Josh!
I am so glad to see you finally had the time to do a load of postpartum meals. I was a little worried that you would run out of time at this busy time of year, and because you never know when babies decide to arrive, it can be quite a shock at how all consuming having a baby is, especially your first baby. Well done, all looks delicious as usual. Good luck with all the things. 🥰
Well she def had the baby… I just hope they are both doing well and cannot wait to hear all about it.
I just found you two days ago: what an inspiration you are! I feel as if my culinary creative juices have been re-ignited. God bless you, your hubby and precious little one!
Thank you for your videos Becky! One of the problems of watching TV chefs is the idea that only a freshly cooked meal is edible - after 2 kids I've finally learned to make double and make my next meal easier. Good luck with your labor and God bless you and your family ❤️
Becky,you are incredible 😍!! Best multi tasker I've ever seen, you teach us soo many things in just one video, the Food Network has got nothing on you !! HA!! I just love it when you taste test ,you're eyes get really big cause it tastes sooo good,I swear I can almost taste it too !!!
The multitasking is what brings me in. I'm not one to follow recipes much. Unless I am looking for something specific. We are making 10 freezer meals , now that's amazing skills! The fact that you are 39 weeks simply makes you a super hero!
I agree. Becky’s show would b more entertaining than some shows I’ve seen on the food network.
Can’t wait for news on the precious baby!😊
Becky, Josh and precious baby acre! Congratulations and much love to you all. I pray all went well. But right now you all need to rest and snuggle a lot. Take this time to get to know your little boy. What a beautiful family! Welcome to the world baby acre. You are going to be well loved❤️
I love when I have a prep to do and I find you have a video to watch and listen to while I’m in the kitchen. I love hanging wit you! Don’t get me wrong, I love my soux chefs. But I love how you and I have the same heart about food. I hope you are taking some time to reflect in these last days before your lil bit of joy comes to connect with Josh so that you are in sync when your family becomes a family of three. You can’t know what it will look like until the moment is here. I pray you let your mom join in as much as possible. There is no greater joy for a mom than to see her daughter be a mom. I feared when my daughter was pregnant but to see her take her baby to her breast for the first time was more joy than my eyes could handle. Tears flowed like Niagara Falls. I know you’re not your Mom’s first daughter to have a baby. But your sisters are not you.
Hi Becky! I was so excited to see this video today. Thank you for making these videos to "fill in" our time while we're waiting for news from you. I noticed this video was recorded over a week ago (as you mentioned it being December 1st), so I hope this means you're getting some much-deserved rest. If your little one has arrived, I hope he or she is healthy and easily contented and I hope you are all adjusting well to the new addition. Our thoughts are with you - Many hugs, love, and light from Northwest Georgia!
Literally just made my WHOLE DAY! I’m working 12 hours overtime today, and tomorrow I’ll be 6 weeks pregnant I don’t even have the energy to think. You’re a superwoman!!!!!!! 💕💕💕 love from ARKANSAS
Congratulations Nadia hope your precious pregnancy goes well and your not feeling too much morning sickness
First trimester fatigue can be so rough!
Congratulations Nadia!!! Hope you have a wonderful pregnancy and birth ♥
Congrats Nadia!! Oh the joys of pregnancy and hope you're not too sick 🙂
Thanks you all!!!! Actually I haven’t been sick once! 🙂
Just got through making 10 dozen tamales for family and friends. This is the first time I have got to rest today and watch the video, I hope you, Josh, and the baby are doing good God bless you and your family.
Congratulations Becky and Josh on your new baby boy! So happy you’re home and all is well! Thanks for letting us know (in the mailing list). 💙💙💙
Congratulations on Baby Acre 💕💕💕
Born and raised Michigander here. Love a Pastie 😋 I never use sausage in my pasties. Ground beef only. We don't eat pork, and they turn out delicious.
As pasties are a ancient Cornwall traditional meal. Turnip is never added and it's always thinly sliced steak and white pepper. But I do like to see variety from different parts. It's all good fun.
It’s amazing to think pasties were first made around 1150 in Cornwall in the UK and they’re still being made today😀 It just shows that good food will always be passed on and kept as favourites 😀 We even make them in Australia 🥰
I'm making these!😋😋😋
Sweet Becky, I’m thinking about you and your sweet baby and praying for you each day for a safe and happy delivery! I can’t wait to meet him or her! ❤
I think you are truly amazing! I found your channel when it was fairly new and felt like I found a sweet friend! Your channel has grown amazingly fast and here we are watching an hour + long video of you cooking and living your life and it already has over 100k views in less than a day! Simply amazing! A true testament to your sweetness and relatability, I believe! ❤
I’m in awe of your full day of cooking at 38 weeks . What a marathon day and all completed with such a good heart . Praying you can get some rest before the baby comes and thank you so much for sharing your recipes and making it look easy . 🧑🍳 0:02
39, she said! Even more impressive
Says it's about 2 teaspoons, proceeds to dump about 3 tablespoons. That's southern grandma cooking right there. Love it. So glad I just found your videos. I've been thinking about getting into meal preps, but never had any idea where to start.
How are you able to chop so many onions without crying?🤣 It's impossible for me. Your amazing!
I’ve always wondered this also. So many onions and no tears? 😅
I use onion goggles under my glasses.
I did like 2 25 pound bags a day in a restaurant and my co workers asked the same, lol
A couple definitely used Googles🤣
I literally teared up watching her cut them I’ve never had that happen before 😂😂
I was thinking about you this morning and was betting myself thy baby was here already. 😂. Yup you’re absolutely nesting “Becky style-in the kitchen”....which is a bonus for us! You are amazing and I’ve learned so much from you. Thank you for all the videos you pump out. I wish you a wonderful birth experience and a speedy recovery postpartum! Much love from the east coast..,,Georgia!! Xoxo susan ❤
Becky, You have inspired me with your dinner freezer meals. I have MS and fatigue is a real issue for me. I am a canner and have a pretty good size pantry. My husband bought me the Harvest Right Med. Freeze Dryer but won’t be here until January. I have the most energy in the early part of the day so by evening I’m exhausted. Doing some freezer meals early in the day seems like a perfect way to have something yummy for dinner when I’m too tired to cook. I hope your relaxing with Josh & baby. God Bless you and your family.🙏♥️🙏
Congratulations Becky and Josh on your new arrival, baby boy. I am amazed that you didn't slow down in feeding us with productive ways to cook and gardening. I pray you heal quickly so you can enjoy your first child baby boy Acres. Another addition added to your life jouney. Best wishes to your family 👪 😃😍❤❤❤
39 weeks pregnant ! You reminded my sister. She work in that until the last minute moving the furniture because the lay out was perfect. Well the good worked out send her to the hospital over night and 20 minutes my baby niece was welcomed to this. Rash world. ❤❤❤❤
Ps. Do you know why scratch pantry website isn’t working? I will love to try the sweet and sour meatball. I am running out of ideas for this season. Thank you very much and good luck
For the hot water dough, boil the water and lard in a pan. I think the boiling mixture cooks the flour and thickens it.
What generous viewers Becky has! You guys rock!
Automatically liking this because of the video length. These are the videos I'm going to rewatch when the baby gets here and y'all take a break. Thank you for all this free content!!!
Those containers with the snap on lids are from Lock N Lock and yes they are available on QVC. These meals look delicious and will definitely help after the baby comes. Great video Becky! ❤️
I'm glad you got to prep all these meals before the birth. I hope the birth went well and you're recovering, and happily holding a precious bundle in your arms. grateful that even now you still post the vids you premade, so organised :)
Becky you look amazing for thirty nine weeks pregnant! Love your videos. They are so inspiring. Enjoy being a wonderful Mum. Sending my love from the UK. X
Becky- I have really grown to really love how functional your kitchen is and your whole food setup. Want to see more of your chickens and the new outside areas. I am so happy for you that you found this wonderful space. Anxiously, happily awaiting baby arrival. Hugs to Josh and you.
You're amazing Becky. I'm inspired :)
You're right about the coal miners and pasties. The traditional shape has the seam at the top and a flattened base because the miners could use the thick, firm seam as a handle when eating the pasty, throwing away that seam section when they were done. That way they could avoid eating the coal dust.
As a 60 yo Aussie, I have never had lasagne made with ricotta - it's always bechamel sauce! The only difference for me is that the top layer is noodles then bechamel topped with a couple of different cheeses.
It's a winner.
Spoiler from the newsletter (I hope it’s ok to share, I know you all will be as excited as I was to hear): “We now have a beautiful, healthy, sweet little boy! We are home and enjoying our time as a new family. Full birth story to come!” Isn’t that just wonderful 👏❤ So happy for our friend (as she calls us all) and her sweet little family. What a wonderful loving home to be born into. Best of luck, Becky, Josh and baby Acre!
Hello, my spouse and I are a long time and loving subscribers of Becky but neither of us we were subscribed to the newsletter. (We fixed that!) Thanks for including this blurb so that we are all in the loop, was there anything else that she posted? Thanks again!
Congratulations on Baby Acre. I am so happy for you.
Can't wait until I have time to finish this! Becky, you are so industrious. All of this effort is a gift to yourself after the baby comes. Thanks for taking us along.
So excited for you and Josh having your baby soon! You look so great and doing so well nesting. May God bless your labor and delivery Becky! Also, your meals are actually doubled since you make enough for leftovers! Amazing Lady!
Hi Becky! I just pulled my first 5 pints of home canned broth out of my new pressure canner and I’m so proud! Thank you for the confidence and instructions! I’m working on having a pantry like yours!
Congratulations Becky and Josh on your new baby boy!!!!
Congratulations on your sweet baby boy! I hope that you are able to rest and enjoy the wonder of this huge milestone 🥰
Making tomato soup from scratch, catching up on Acre Homestead!! Sunday done to perfection! Hope you are well Becky :)
I never pre boil my lasagna noodles, I just use the regular, whole wheat, noodles and assemble as you do. They always cook up just fine.
I'm so glad that you were able to get the freezer meals done before baby. It is going to be such a help to you. You are amazing!!! Pam- I'm sooo proud to see you using a timer! I think you'll find it really does make life easier 😌.
I saw on Food Network they said that even though you sliced the chicken in half to make it thinner that you still should pound it that makes it more tender. I have found this to be true.
Wow Becky you inspire me so much!!! I’m 39 weeks pregnant and should probably prep some freezer meals today before baby comes!!! I’m impressed you were able to knock out all these meals in one day😮❤
Becky, You are a Gem! Thank you so much for planning ahead so we won't have Becky withdrawal while you and Josh anxiously wait for your baby to arrive. I know everyone is excited for your family. Many Blessings!
An hour and a half!! 😍😍😍 I must be dreaming!! Praying for you through a healthy labor and I cany wait for baby to get here!
Good morning Becky, hope all is well with you. You have been heavy on my mind. You, Josh and baby are in my prayers. That you have a quick and easy delivery and healing of your body.🥰🙏🙏🙏
Pasties are very popular here in Britain. A lot of time Tumeric features in them, especially cheese ones. If you couldn't do egg wash, I would have suggested a milk wash with a tiny amount of Tumeric in it for colour. You've worked very hard there. I totally relate! Josh is a very lucky man!!
CONGRATULATIONS BECKY AND JOSH! Welcome to the world baby boy!!!! Can't wait to hear more about it. God bless.
