- You'll never believe what I got for $13 on this week's thrift haul! Spend the day with me making a classic breakfast, doing some household tidying after staying up late with the kids, and finding places in my home for all of my new (to me), thrifted treasures.

Brown Butter Dutch Baby Recipe: hopewellheightsblog.com/easy-...
30-Minute One Pot Wonder - Cheesy Chicken Bowtie Pasta with Sundried Tomatoes
6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
2 T butter or olive oil
1 T poultry seasoning
10 oz. dry bowtie pasta
6 cups chicken stock or broth
1 cup heavy cream
2 cups shredded cheese (I use Provel but white cheddar or an Italian mix would work well too)
1/4 cup sundried tomatoes
1/2 t salt
1.4 t black pepper
(optional) 1/4 t red pepper flakes
Trim and dice the chicken thighs into 1" pieces. Heat 2T oil or butter in a large skillet. Add the chicken to the hot oil, sprinkle with poultry seasoning, and saute for 5 minutes in the hot oil until the chicken is golden brown on the outsides. Pour in the 6 cups of broth and scrape the bottom of the skillet to deglaze. Once the broth is boiling, add the dry pasta. Reduce to medium heat and cover with a lid for 10-15 minutes until pasta is al dente. Remove the lid, add the heavy cream, cheese, sundried tomatoes, salt and pepper, and stir. Cover with the lid and remove from heat. Wait 5 minutes, remove the lid and stir. Serve hot.

I am a stay at home mom...that's my job and also homeschooled my children from Kindergarten on. My husband worked outside the home. I do not believe in my husband doing my job and I would not go to his employment and do his job. Now if I worked in the home and was employed outside the home I would say 50/50 because we would both have 2 jobs . I am 58 and still believe that was how it was meant to be but, I do not judge others for different living and do not expect to be judged for the way I believe it should be. I had to laugh you sounded like me about making the bed in the morning and doing all the dishes before bed. I do my dishes right after our meals. I like to wake up to a clean kitchen. I always tell my husband my job is done when my dishes are done for the night. 😊
Yes! Dishes done, time to relax for the evening!
I’m 59 in a week, I hsled also, 5 kids
Dads can help when they get home. Unless it’s bedtime - as they worked long hours.
My day lasts 16hrs with babies, I’m woken up at night too. With toddlers n up, I work 14hrs (they sleep better). Everyday, no TO for holidays or vacations; let’s not talk about sick days 😵💫
I also educate them myself & cook every meal. Teachers don’t bring their babies to class with them, yet I’m doing this also.
Dad can parent too once he’s home. Do dishes, do a Bible study, change diaper, give a bath, take the bigger kids for a bike ride, scrub a toilet, go over math concept with Adam, give me 30 min once babys asleep to just stare at the wall ALONE…😮
Would you ever consider doing a kitchen and/pr living room tour? You have mentioned that you built your house and it would be great to hear your thoughts and see all of your ideas that you implemented when building!
I really do need to do that!
Really enjoy your page. Could you make a video showing how you care for you cast irons. I love seeing how others take care of there's.
I love your chn. Please post as you want to post. I live in MA. I just turned 60. My husband and I have been married 36 years and we have two adult children. In this modern world… yes people want it to be 50/50. After 36 years of marriage we have found that the responsibility’s we have split over the years. He gets so upset if he sees me handling one of his tools. His job now of setting the table at night,,,, gives me more stress than it’s worth. I totally understand what ur are saying. Today I made your Dutch baby recipe. It was so easy and delicious!!!
😂 i much prefer to "stay in my lane" and my husband stay in his. 🤪 Unpopular opinion, but, he CAN wash dishes, but not as well as i can, i CAN mud drywall but not as well as he can. I try to save the power tool things for him ... Although, i absolutely LOVE laying the laminate flooring.... Love love love it.
Exactly!! It really is about skill level, we each have things we are really good and efficient at, why mess with it?! Glad we aren’t alone 🤣
I agree and respect that you and your husband have your sacred spaces and processes. My husband and I both farm. He farms row crops & hay. I grow produce to sell. We both pitch in to raise & maintain livestock. He prefers to maintain the farm paperwork because he has a system. I homeschool and maintain the home. We both assist each other in the event it is needed. I stay out of his processes and he mine. We both don’t preach to each other how to do our jobs. It’s too easy to fall into a trap of my work is harder than yours. The anxiety and resentment is not worth it.
I also use my little brown pampered chef scrapers for everything. They work for EVERYTHING!
Thank you for sharing with us your recipes and thrift finds. I love getting inspired by other women serving their family with love and grace. God Bless 🤍
God bless and Merry Christmas!
I agree! It warms my heart & inspires me as well❤
When you said ‘if he was to fold laundry’ I gave a good chuckle because I feel the same. I appreciate the dynamic my husband and I have and the roles we have in our marriage and home. Its a beautiful thing to be comfortable with 🥰
My husband HATES when I use his power tools. I'm tempted to buy my own lol
Ever since I can remember,even as a very young girl,I also have to have my bed made😊. I also have to have my kitchen clean before bed,lol… I am 52 and I actually remember when My boys were young almost being late for work a couple of times becuz I enjoyed coming home to a tidy home… I have no shame when it comes to those two life long habits 🙏
Timeless habits for an orderly life!
I love that you thrift so many things for your home!!! You really have an eye for what looks great! I love your videos!
Thank you!! Thrifting is truly one of my greatest thrills 🤣 👵🏼 so glad it’s making a comeback!
This video was most enjoyable to watch, dinner looked delish, so thanks for sharing with us...
you're so welcome!
I agree about the Pampered Chef scrapers. They are very handy.
I am loving your content! And I have never thought about getting prints off Etsy. Genius!
Such a treasure trove of beautiful art over there!
❤
I also have to make our bed every day…it is a must! I love watching u bring new love into old treasures!
Truly sets the tone for a productive day!
I use my husband's power tools sparingly and when he's not around for the same reasons! 😂 We both help each other when needed, but feel guilty when the other one crosses into the other's jobs. He doesn't like when I have to lift or do his yard work. I almost cried when he helped with Thanksgiving dishes(we hosted 10 members of his family). He hasnt washed a dish in many years.
It’s such a comfort to have roles and routines in the family and definitely makes it special when someone steps in and does something for you! ❤️
Kitty is so cute!❤️🥰 The music at the beginning made me feel nostalgic.😍
One of my favorite songs!
@@HopewellHeights Mine, too!
I love those pampered chef scrapers also! So handy!
Yes to the laundry bit! I am so glad I’m not the only one that feels or thinks that way. I just don’t like the way others do it. I have a system and cleaning is therapeutic for me. 😅
haha exactly! It really is so therapeutic and satisfying to complete tasks you're good at!
I am exactly the same. I have to make the bed everyday. Even if on and off day it’s not made before I get back into bed, I make the bed before I get into it lol. 😅Nothing like a made bed!
yes! You all get it! a made bed just sleeps better
I own the dish set to the tables you got!!! I didn't know they made tables 😍
What a wonderful video. Thank you for the happy wholesome content 🥰
You're so welcome!
What a lovely, homey video. I am an empty-nester yet love these types of videos. It takes me back to a time I dearly miss 😊
A suggestion to train kids and implement a routine
Keeps chaos from ensuing and mom has to remember nothing!
Morning list
Afternoon list (once academics done before can go play, like put away school bks, or projects, do 1 chore)
Evening list (before bed)
Meal chart (every task is delegated even if u have to stand with them)
These take effort n time to make but save SOMUCHTIME in just a short while.
I rotated if possible. Toddler & preschool chores stay with the kid till he can do bigger kid chores. A toddler & preschooler can separate silverware into the drawer tray…u have to train them to perseverance once they get the concept but if u require it anyway it’s not hard (doing the whole job even when u don’t want to or something more exciting pops up)
Sample morning list
Age 5 or so
Go potty (put pullup in garbage)
[If wet, strip and bathe/shower.
Strip bed, take to washer for someone to rinse in washer
Take wipes and wipe down plastic mattress cover]
Wash hands]
Tidy room
Meal Chart chore
Eat breakfast
Meal Chart chore
If not wet, get dressed after brush teeth
Brush hair
Morning chore (1 per morning)
Start day playing, doing skill work (hobby), or academics
If u have farm animals adjust accordingly
If dads there, maybe they go out with him after morning chore
Once you have made these, and adapted once u use them (real life kicks in lol) then u have instant easy routine the kids know even w/o reading or bigger kids can help them with
I put them in clear page protectors to use wipe off markers on or grease pencils
I've used my little brown scraper for years! Love it. Never made a dutch baby, but I need to try that!
beautiful !
I’m glad to see you using a grounding mat. I have one but have not used it yet because I was thinking I had to lay directly on the mat. Now I see you out your sheet over it. 😀
Enjoyed the video
Great grounding Mats my son used a large one . He lays on for his back. 😊
I love the pink girly art print.
I love spending time with you…. 🙋🏻♀️🤗🌲
thank you!
I love your videos we are looking for a good milk cow right now. I love your cat we also have a few indoor outdoor cats.
Love the Angelus print, I have it on a large fridge magnet and a unique copper carving made in Quebec, both in my kitchen!
Such a classic!
I live "across the river" from you (IL side) Why have i never thought to use IMO's cheese in my cooking??? I'm going to have to try it and see if my kids prefer it. I know I love it for sure!
Love your videos❤ I have to make my bed and neaten my home before bedtime so it is cozy and peaceful in the morning.
Best way to prepare for a good day ahead!
Cat- short for Catrina 😊
I love thrifting frames! Try adding the prints without the glass! They look sooo much better 🫶🏽
Thanks for talking about grounding mats! I'm debating between getting those and the ones that Andrew huberman talks about that regulate your mattress temperature so you sleep better. Decisions! Decisions! 😂😂😊
Ohhh that’s intriguing!! Definitely worth the research to see what’s best for you bc these babies aren’t cheap! 😅
There's an article by Skeptoid (All About Grounding) that addresses the science needed to understand this. It was a good, informative read.
I am so curious about these grounding mats. How long did you use yours before noticing a difference? Thank you in advance! 😊@@HopewellHeights
I wish we had thrift stores like you. Those are some amazing finds!
The locally owned ones are the best!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS; Thanks for sharing all things. THRIFTING IS MY JAM. STTB*SHARED TO THE BURGH*Pittsburgh PA
Merry Christmas! ❤️
I love the Polish Madonna painting (the laundry day one you have in the nursery). I've started gifting it to friends in baby shower/wedding shower gifts! Same method, find a nice thifted frame and print it off to fit the frame
Oh that’s such a great idea as a shower gift!
Your house is stunning 🙏
Thank you!
My new fav creator❤
Hi! Thank you! ❤️
i love your TV trays❤ I have had heartland dishes for years and would love ro find trays for my set. Will have yo look around. You must hsve a great thrift shop. Look up heartland dishes and you will see what I mean. I could not believe my eyes when I saw those tables, I had to pause and just stare in awe😂
Oh how fun!! I will look them up!
Have to tell you…made your chicken and dumplings recipe last week and ENTIRE FAMILY GAVE RAVE REVIEWS…even when they ate the leftovers! Now, I’m an Sicilian mother…I know how to cook… thus my family knows the meaning of good food. Many thanks for sharing and a Blessed Christmas season to you and your precious family!
Oh I’m so glad you all loved it! Blessings and Merry Christmas to you!
I would love to know what kind of counter tops you have and also you paint color ,cabinets and walls ❤️❤️ everything looks so good together ,
Oh my goodness, are your glasses frames from eyebuydirect? I think I have the same ones and you're inspiring me to bring them back out!
I'd feel the same if I was a SAHM. ❤ I work full time as a RN and take care of my house and kids so I love help around the house.... I've been with my husband for 20 years so he's learned what to help with and when to..... Lol
Your one pot meal made my mouth water just looking at it 😅
It's so good!!
I’m crazy clean if I go to bed with a cup in the sink I won’t sleep until it is washed I’ll get out of bed and wash it. I raised both my children alone and they are both amazing. One is 40 and my girl is 21. I change my bed on Fridays too, and …….because of YOU ……….I finally made my first sourdough loaf of bread yayyyyy. It was sooooooo delicious. I had killed my starter - started a new one -and was feeding it for 6 months using the discard to make pancakes , and other things . 🤗🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Oh I'm so glad you mastered sourdough bread! It's the best!!
@@HopewellHeights I hope I got it there is only 2 of us at home so I can’t make it as much as you do. But I have made it 2 times and so far soooo good yum
New subscriber here! Love you channel so much already. Not able to homestead just yet. My husband and I are renting a home with our two children. We are planning to move into our first home of our own soon Lord willing. Your home is beautiful. Love how you thrift so many things. Really like your style. I’d love to know where you buy your clothes. I’m trying to dress more femininely
Where are your card organizer boxes from that is on your counter? I love them! 😍
i think what you call dutch baby... here in england is a large yorkshire pudding no? any other brits on here watching this thinking that?
I love watching your videos ! I learn so much. Can you tell me what you had in your spray bottle that you used on your counters and stovetop? Thank-you:)
Please do a house tour. Especially kitchen tour. ❤❤❤
Hey Steph! Do you have a link to the chore chart that you use? I’m looking for a new one before the start of the school year. Hope you and the family are enjoying your summer time on the homestead! ❤
Love your videos. I love the blue floral dress where did you get it, maybe brand? It is beautiful.
ROLL TIDE ROLL !!!
I love the pampered chef scraper too! And Dutch babies! I’ve been on an Instagram break but I got you a little Christmas gift. I’ll have to email you to find out where to send it :)
Oh you’re too sweet!
I love your dining chairs! Did you thrift those as well?
Hi, I have a question about your blue recliners. Can I ask where you got them? I like that they don’t look like normal recliners. Thanks!
My hubs and I have set man and woman roles and we're okay with that too it works well for us in our marriage and that's wonderful to us
I love your quilts are they passed down to you from family or did you buy them?. Old quilts in the UK are very expensive 100s of pounds upwards. I'm very jealous of yours. And I agree about making the bed. Love your videos.
Where did you get your red skirt?! So cute!
Clearance rack at Marshall’s a while back, very comfy the bigger my belly gets!
I very much appreciate you sharing bits of your wisdom and experience especially when it comes to life as a homemaker. As a sister in Christ I do want to caution you though when it comes to grounding. It is a technique that has roots and is used very widely in witchcraft. I know that it has its “benefits” but there is always an unseen tradeoff. Of course as with anything I urge you to take this to the lord in prayer but I wouldn’t be acting in love if I kept this knowledge from you ❤
Would love your experience with cloth diapering! I cloth diaper now but am running into some challenges as my little one gets older! I have another one on the way, so 2 in cloth diapers at once 🤣
Cloth diapers are better for the earth and not hard to use….
I had 3 kids under the age of 2 and cloth diapered them all. I loved it.
I am curious if you used your new canon to film this video? The quality is amazing!!
What kind of coffee pot are you using? It looks like an enamel French press… interesting looking🤔
Do you give the kids supplements, vitamins, probiotics? If so what do you use? Just curious. Love the frames and tables you found so cute! 🙌 For thrift shop gems and one pot meals🙌
I do! They get the same stuff I do but they do capsules, I just do the powder since it's cheaper. So the kids take Beef Liver, Mushroom blend, and magnesium daily.
Where do you find good deals on quality quilts? Estate sales?
I’m not sure about earthing mats. I have an earthing sheet and a pillow case and the earthing shoes but I can’t say I feel a big difference and I’ve had these items for 2 years.
I honestly didn't expect much and I can't say for sure if my carpal tunnel has gone away because of them, but I figure they definitely can't hurt anything!
I am a new subscriber so I apologize if it’s mentioned in previous videos. Where do you thrift? We live out in Wentzville so not too far from you and I am trying to find thrifting items that are a little more homestead related and I can’t find that going east.
Can you link the little hooks you use to hang your frames?
Cleaner and more sanitary if your hair isn’t dragging on those counters…!
Love your thrift finds! What do you film your videos with? Thinking of starting a channel!
I just filmed a video today talking about how I started my channel and equipment I started with! It will be up one week from today 😊
Awesome! Thank you!@@HopewellHeights
Do you have a link for the aprons you wear?
Great video! Did you use your new camera for this one? The picture is beautiful!❤
I did! Thank you! ❤️
You’re welcome!😊
Trilight Herbs are awesome
They are glycerites so very nice for pregnant and nursing - and young kids who balk at tinctures
They have pregnancy formulae formulated by the late great Shonda Parker (truly a loss for the world that she died at an early age). Then there’s red raspberry leaf for those who aren’t tea drinkers (like me!). Sickness formulae made for pg moms or kids.
I highly reccd Trilight!
(I have no affiliation with them at all)
Radiant Health Catalog is another source for actual superfoods-quality cod liver oil, etc so important for pg & nsg moms (and children!)
Magnesium and cod liver are 2 supplements everyone just neeeeeeeds. (high-vitamin butter oil, which is sold by Green Pastures, the maker of a high quality cod liver oil, is also a nonnegotiable in my opinion; this is not ghee, it’s centrifuged very high quality butter & the vitamin its high in is vitamin K, which is very needed when taking CLO- the vitamin D increases your absorption of calcium, the vitamin K takes this calcium and puts it in your bones and in your teeth vs on your teeth and lining your arteries and making bone spurs. Unless u eat summer-grass-pastured cream made into butter, ur not getting the K in sufficient amts; the K is plants is wrong form)
I have no affiliation with Radiant Health either.
What do you do with your little toddler when you are doing the dishes/getting things done? Mine is so whiny and needy in the morning I am struggling to even fix him breakfast. He just doesn’t want to play on his own
I have big kids so he is usually playing with them! If not he sits on the counter by me
Lol music
Where is your dress from? Very cute!
It's an older one from Neuflora - very comfy! www.neuflora.com/?ref=W4OeJ
Why do you need Etsy to print old master paintings? Aren’t they all available on Wikipedia?
Hi super random question. But we look to be similar sizes (not pregnant) and I’ve been eyeing the Neuflora Churchill dress. How is the sizing/what size are you wearing? It’s so cute on you
I’m a steady medium in all of their dresses whether pregnant or not!
Sweet, thank you!
Where do you purchase these digital prints at that price?😊
I thought I had them linked but I don’t see them - linking them now in the description!
What kind of stone is on your black counter top?
Soapstone! We have had it 6 years now and I absolutely love it
Soapstone! We have had it 6 years now and I absolutely love it
Link for grounding mat?
Linked in the description, the documentary is as well!
It's the very first one she linked.
@@joannjukes9140 lol oh my gosh! I'm so blind 🥴 thanks!
LOL,,,No worries 🤣@@MostBoringNameEver
Is this a dup of Lisa at farmhouse on Boone? All you young women these days crack me up
How do you think sticking your dirty foot in your oven is sanitary? You’ve walked outside & inside a barn. That’s quite disgusting.
