Maybe donate those onion's you dont like, i didn't taste them lol but all taste buds are different. I can imagine someone using them in instant mashed potatoes or a base for onion gravy or something like that. it will fill belly's and be a blessing to them.
I hope that you are not giving away the baby bowl, plate, and spoon and fork I think you also got a couple sporks
Becky- clean with the lemon juice :)
You could probably freeze dry the half n half. It should keep bout as long as powdered milk.
@@shanewilliams4603 but she wants to freeze dry the breast milk from when she had the baby. I don't understand why she will not thaw it in either hot water or in the fridge. I don't believe that he is breastfeeding baby Acre and that frozen breast milk would be better for him all she needs to do is warm it up it will though last 3 hrs in the freezer. I had to pump my milk and freeze it because my youngest daughter Bambi was born at 6 months old she only weighed 1pound 8 ounces and she needed my milk I would drive to the hospital every day and stayed with her they also gave me a bed of I wanted to spend the night the Hospital was in Ventura, CA and we lived in Simi Valley, CA so it was 100 miles each way. So both of my daughter's are born on the same day 2 yrs apart. But if Becky does use her machine to freeze dry it she has to follow the directions to the tea or it will not be safe for anyone.
Hi Becky. Quick story I'm a home health aid that works in a senior citizens building. Anytime your videos come on, I have to run downstairs to put u on the big screen in the communal area. They love you so much. They wish u and the family the best in the world. One more thing, some of the lady and I make your recipes once a month. You bring them so much joy.. THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT U DO!
WOW Thank you so much!!
That is so neat!!❤
Ah that's so lovely to hear!
omg that’s adorable
I’ll bet some of your residents have tips and tricks! You should share them with us - along with the name(s) of those sharing the information. We can thank them personally. I’d love to do that!!
Soak those corn seeds overnight before planting and plant 4 seeds per hole: 1 for the cutworm, 1 for the crow, 1 to rot, and 1 to grow! Good luck!
Sounds like my Pappap, who ALWAYS had an awesome in-ground garden in Virginia. He was gardening up until 100 years old. ❤
Lol love that last part! It’s so true.😂
best to soak always have a almost perfect germination rate with my corn!
I love that!
I’ve not heard that saying in ages. We always get best results germinating the corn on cotton wool with water. Once it has germinated put it in a pot then when 12-15” tall put into the garden.
With your shredded cheese, I've found it works best to freeze on a cookie sheet in a single layer. Then bag it. This way it doesn't clump and is easy to take out smaller amounts! So excited for garden season 😊
I agree! That works really well for me too!
Great idea
Most definitely the way to go.
I usually freeze in 2 cup portions so it will get used up on most recipes. However, I think I’ll try the cookie tray method next time!
Idea: the wheeled planter bases for under the plastic bins in the side pantry, can wheel them around and save the lifting, and have up off the floor
Does anyone else think it's funny that we just spent almost an hour watching Becky do things that we do every day? My husband came into the kitchen while I was watching this video laughed, and said didn't you do that yesterday. 🤣 Becky, have you ever pressure-canned carrots using the electric canner? I checked out the playlist for food preservation and canning but I didn't see any titles with carrots, maybe I missed it.
What’s better is I watched her work but I didn’t lolol😂😂😂😂😂
I think we are all looking for friends!
Put your dried peppers in mason jars! Also, freeze the wine in ice cube trays and then you will have wine for recipes that call for it! Nice job, Becky!
Darn, wish I'd known that. Bought half and half for the first time ever and stuck it in the freezer for future cooking
agree with put in mason jars, use your sealer to suck out the air and it will keep them longer!
Great idea
Genius tip, wine in ice cubes. I do that with stock that is concentrated (reduced) and not with a water consistency which I freeze in jars. Both are great for on the fly casseroles etc
It's 6 weeks old and not temperature controlled. It's turned. I would not use in recipes, vinegar is best route.
To keep from having too many baking dishes, try lining your baking dish with plastic wrap, then putting your meal in. Stick it in the freezer. Once frozen you can take the meal, plastic wrap and all, out of the baking dish and wrap it really well in foil. Label and put back in the freezer. When ready to use the meal, simply unwrap (recycle the foil), put the meal in the baking dish to thaw and then bake.
Genius!
She has addressed this before...she prefers to buy baking dishes at thrift stores, etc and refrain from using the plastic wrap.
@@lisawallace3124 I'm fairly new to her posts. Sorry that I wasn't aware of her previous explanation. I don't have a big kitchen like she does so I don't have the storage space for that many casserole pans. I'm sure this is true for many of us.
Becky, you can get a grease pencil, also know as a china marker to write on your silicone bags. When I worked in restaurants they were used to write dates and information on the food bins and pans going into the walk in refrigerators. It washes right off with a little soap and water.
As Becky was putting on her coat, did anyone else wonder if she forgot to take the eggs out of her pocket? lol. I look forward to your videos they certainly make my day. (especially when Mr Acre talks to us as well !)
😂
Becky you may not wish to double stack jars without a piece of cardboard between them, to balance out the weight. Double stacking can hide/cause a seal to break and then reseal it, thus putting you at risk.
I believe the new recommendations say it's safe to stack 2 high
I was going to say the same thing. They do "allow" stacking now. As mentioned.
I always put a couple layers of cardboard. Just not taking the chance.
@@A-G5518if the government says to go right, you go. If they say to go left, you go. 😅 Such sheep.
Over the holidays, my mother bought two CASES of corn syrup, thinking she was buying two bottles! You’re not alone in unintentionally buying bulk!!
I can’t wait until she notices her white flour is actually wheat flour 😂😂 I love Becky because she makes me laugh and is just a real human.
White flour is wheat flour?
Hi Becky, my mom, my sister-in-law and myself all buy our cheese in bulk because of you and we have been shredding the bulk, portioning into freezer bags and then popping into the freezer without issue for about a year now. I love having mozzarella on hand for pizza and other cheeses for topping casseroles, lasagna and etc. My goal like you is to grow most of the vegetables we eat in our house, thank you helping me learn and encouraging me to try things for myself!
Me too!!!
I buy bulk always on cheese and freeze it without any issues.. works awesome
Same here. It thaws perfectly.
Hi Becky! I have always used 'leftover' white wine to marinate chicken! White wine, Italian seasoning, Season salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder(or fresh) Onion Powder, Parsley, and a sprinkle of Paprika. Marinate at least an hour. Place chicken in a baking dish and put about half of the marinate over it. Bake at 350'F for 30 minutes. Pour off remaining marinate and continue cooking chicken until the chicken is done and a bit browned. It's delicious served with chicken flavored rice and a nice vegetable. I have even used leftover champagne for this. Hope this gives you a good use for your wine! Greeting from Astoria! I enjoy your videos very much. They are very well done and professional!
I pre-shred my cheese myself as well. I do a “flash” freeze on a cookie sheet first, then I put in the silicone bags. Much easier and won’t stick together!
Does freezing ur cheese affect the texture or flavor at all?
@@sarahwieland3243 it may be a bit more crumbly but the flavor is the same. I don’t notice it when I shred it first, just if I freeze it in the block.
I am completely in awe of how much you get done with a baby underfoot. Mine turned 8 months old today and I barely get half an hour per nap (3 naps right now) and most of the time I'm busy with him. I can get the ironing done while he's playing in the crib, or the laundry folded while he's watching me from the middle of the (double) bed.
He's also really bad at sleeping in his own bed during the day. He's a dream at night bedtime, but naptime during the day.... oof.
Hi Becky. Freezing cheese. Lay it on a tray like granola, freeze it, then bag it. Does not stick. You can even use "food saver" once cheese is frozen and it comes out still shredded.
Thank you for the info. That is something I thought about and wondered if that would be a good option - freezing before bagging.
I freeze shredded cheese all of the time. I do use a food saver.
@@peggiescraftcafe7117 I was thinking that to myself as she was bagging it up that it would be a good idea to freeze on a tray first. What a smart bunch in this community! Everyone learning from each other!👍 Have a wonderful day Peggie!
Oops, you too Holly!😄
@@TLadret Thank you. This is a lovely community.
My bf and i have already learned to just get rid of what we will not eat. No use to 'guiltily' hanging on to food we wont eat.
I made my first freezer breakfast food tonight! I made 10 sausage egg and cheese with bell pepper and onion burritos! I wrapped in plastic wrap then with foil. I only have a family of 3 so that should be plenty for a bit. I’m so happy I found this channel! ❤
I’ve also started a raised bed garden in my backyard. I have tons of fruits and veggies. You’ve inspired me 😊
Hi Becky, The #1 reason we bought a Harvest Right is to preserve breastmilk. I've been freeze drying mine for 3 years, and it's invaluable! It takes a little longer, or there are times I'll have a small bit in the very center that needs re-drying. Make sure to weigh your frozen milk before and after drying in order to know the correct amount of pure water to add. I'll sit it through a seive to ensure I got all the wet/ cold bits out. Yes. It's a little more work but totally worth preserving that liquid gold love!
Leftover wine uses... my favorites are vinegar, herb wines, marinades, syrup, and cookies. I make a rosemary lemon white wine cookie we love. I've also added red wine to chocolate cookies, and they are so decadent! I've also tried soaking my cheese in red wine before freeze drying and powdering. It's not our favorite, but it definitely perks up a cheese sauce. I'll also put it in my marinara or pizza sauce before canning. It increases acidity minorly.
Half and half freezes like a dream! Better than milk due to the higher fat content. However, you might get some separation like you do with milk. A quick blend in the blender, and it's perfect!
You can also cook rice is white wine 1 cup rice 1cup white wine and 2 cups water
She is NOT Breastfeeding or Pumping. SMH
Not sure where she got Breast Milk, but it's not hers.
Everytime Baby E cry's, she would need to breastfeed him ( let down). She ignores him and goes on her merry way.
She stated that in her Birth Videos. She said she couldn't because of the Spinal Leak and Josh had to buy Formula.
Not to mention the fact, she has been drinking.
@@BBB-fy2es She doesn't ignore her baby. Go be miserable somewhere else 🙄
@@BBB-fy2es I see you’ve made a similar comment at least one other time. I’m not sure why you are so bothered by comments. I also don’t get why you think you know all about her life and situation when she shows what she wants to show in a few videos a week.
@BBB *Breastfeeding mom here* While I feel my letdown when my baby cries, I do not leak. Also, it does not always mean that he wants milk. I usually have 2-2.5 hours of free time in between feedings, which would be plenty of time to do what Becky does in these videos as long as the baby was good with playing alone/ being put down/ sleeping.
You shouldn’t judge what other people are doing regarding feeding their child. And she is only showing us what she wants to show. She has indicated in the past that she does not want this channel to be about her baby. SMH
To use up the white wine, you could try making a batch of white wine sangria granitas or citrus white wine granitas. If you freeze a few small batches now, you can just pull them out to scrape/scoop for cooling warm weather cocktails whenever you want to cool off this summer. And because of the alcohol content, they won’t freeze completely solid, so they’ll still be scoopable when the weather starts to warm up in another month or so.
That's a great idea! I usually just freeze leftover white wine for recipes later, but I'll have to try granitas next time.
Seeing this freezer full of meals/preps after two months without going shopping was kind of amazing and impressive.
Becky, I am so glad to hear you are going to partner up with your mother-in-law to can meals in a jar. I am very interested in this project. I love your organizational skills. I am trying to do the same but in a smaller scale.
Yes, you can freeze half-and-half for up to 3 months. It is not recommended to freeze half-and-half in the carton though because they generally aren’t freezer safe. It’s best to transfer the half-and-half to a freezer-safe Ziploc bag or airtight container. FYI, half and half also tends to separate in the thawing process so you will want to put it in a container that you can shake before each use upon putting it into the fridge.
She could also freeze dry it. Seen a few YT'ers do it very successfully.
I successfully freeze half and half in the carton, but it's not stored that way for longer than a month.
Th expiration date for half and half is long so I’d wait to freeze until you have to because once frozen it doesn’t have long life in fridge.
Don't freeze the half and half in the containers. They will separate and looked curled when you use it. Put it in ice cube trays and after frozen in a zip lock bag.
Happened to me too
I already froze it can I refreeze it now in icecube trays?
I had heavy cream freeze in the back of my fridge 😢. It definitely separated….use the ice cube tray!
You can try reconstituting it by whiz it up in a blender. Just don’t do it too much or you’ll have whipped cream or butter!
@@pamelabrooker9567 no, you shouldn’t thaw and refreeze dairy. It can be dangerous
Our thoughts and prayers are with all the people of Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia.
Hi Becky! You could use blue tape with a sharpie to label the cheese. That way you could just pull it off when your done. 💗
Becky, this mum is proud of you- just as your mom is! The inspiration you give to others is amazing. I see it in the comments repeatedly. Well done- young mum!
Can’t wait for the canning whole meals! Just bought the electric canner you liked and canned my first broth. 💞
I’m anxiously awaiting the canned meals too. I do want to get the electric canner.
It is easy to use ? Want to start canning as well.
@@dlmelotte5340 I’ve used it just the once but it seemed easy enough. I watch Becky’s video and read the directions meticulously because I’m afraid of pressure canners and pressure cookers in general. I was able to do 4 quarts of broth and didn’t blow up the in kitchen so that’s a success right there!😉
Label, label label! You will forget. Use painters tape, masking tape, duct tape, anything! I so enjoy your videos!
Becky, you and your videos really help me get a feeling of home and safety. I have many things in my life currently as a university student, a type one diabetic, and i am autistic, so it easily gets very overwhelming. and we currently have exams and its just a lot of stress, and chaos and your videos just help me get a break and I really appreciate you and what you do, you are amazing!
I shred blocks of cheese and flash freeze on parchment lined baking sheets. After it freezes, I pack into zipper bags. When I used to shred and bag and freeze right away, I found the cheese stuck together more.
Recommended: I would put a black-out shade on your pantry window to preserve all those jars of herbs and spices longer.
They also sell rolls of tint you can use. We used with a lot of success on our south facing windows.
You can freeze the wibe in ice cube trays and then use them when required for sauces etc
Hi Becky, In my prepper resource books it says you can still store eggs on the counter after washing them. The trick is to dry them after washing, and add a thin coating of mineral oil. You can even do this with store bought eggs. Saves a lot of room in the fridge. I saw one woman who tested this and the eggs were still perfect even months later.
Love your channel. Thanks for all you teach us.
Once washed, they need to be Refrigerated.
The Bloom is what is protecting the permeable shell, from anything entering. Once it is removed, they need to be Refrigerated.
Either, Unwashed stored on Counter or Washed into the Refrigerator.
Long time Chicken Keeper
So much food for two people. Plus all the food storage and freezers. That's got to be so stressful.
Left over wine.... freeze it in ice cube trays and keep in zip lock bags. They are fantastic to use for a sauce or in dishes you just need a little bit of wine to deglaze the pan.❤😊
Hi Becky. You know how you had a garlic peeling party? Well, that's what we do to make tamales. Invite all your friends and family and make enough for everyone to eat that night and take some home and enough for the freezer. Tamales take a lot of time and the work goes by fast when done in a large happy group! As usual, you inspire me in my kitchen endeavors. Thank you!
I made a tamale video- my students had never heard of tamales (I am in Germany ). Getting the corn husks is a pain, but I found a source!!
@@krisirolfe4332 If you have trouble finding cornhusks, you can use parchment paper instead. They might not 'seem' quite as authentic but they work well and the taste is the same. I have even seen people in Mexico use tin foil on occasion. I haven't ever tried foil but I have tried the parchment paper and it was fine.
Wait, you're already donating the mini muffin tin that you just got for those appetizers? Ha!
You've done it again, Becky! I'm completely inspired by all that you accomplish in a day! I'd love to have your energy ... and your extended pantry! Ha! What a fabulous space to have near your kitchen. It is so spacious and convenient. Thank you for sharing! I thoroughly look forward to each of your videos.
I'm excited to see the video of you and your M-I-L canning full meals. You always inspire me to get busy so after I finish watching, I'll get to work.
At least you won't have to worry about running out of half and half for your coffee for a long time.
So thankful for you Becky. I needed this today. We in Mississippi have had a rough weekend!
My prayers for you all in Mississippi
Prayers for you and all affected with these storms.
Praying for all in the path. 🙏🙏
Praying for you 🙏
Aw thanks for watching! I hope this week is better!
Your the reason I don’t buy shredded cheese and shred it myself. I bulk shred and store In sandwich bags in the freezer. My cheddar and mozzarella freezes perfectly! Also I’m a mum of twin toddlers in Australia and I watch you religiously because you make me happy 😃 ❤
U do a lot off work around ur home , u picked up ur order , u organized , u did ur pantry , ur bulk food order, u shreded ur order if large cubes of chz , u refilled ur sugar pales , u do so much in one day & u have a baby wow... When I was a young Mom I did alot around my home too n had a children , I give a lot of respect n credit to young Mom's today they do so much n keep a home together for there husbands n family ...
I enjoy ur channel u show ur day to us n give tips n ideas ty for sharing ur life with us n all the ideas n tips u give us too on ur channel ...❤️
I think subconsciously you ordered all of that half and half because that is what you needed to go to the store for during your pantry challenge 😂
😂 i was thinking the same thing 😂
I was thinking the SAME thing! She'll never run out again!! 😉
It’s always funny to see all of the likes Becky’s videos have when they are first posted. I don’t know of any other channel I watch that I know I will like the video before I watch it.❤
alot of people find this type of thing so relaxing..its really a good thing for the world
Love that pantry closet. Wish I had one at my place. I swear if I ever win the lottery, I'm going to design the perfect house with ample space for growing room, pantry for stock and butler's pantry too.
I would love if you and your MIL would "teach" a class on water bath canning for those of us who have never done any canning before. I want to try, but am kind of scared!! I so appreciate all your videos!!!
I’ve been pre-shredding my cheese as well for a while now and the trick to it not clumping without having to add anything to it is to flash freeze it first. Spread the cheese out flat on a large baking sheet (no parchment paper or baking mat required) and freeze it for a few hours, then you can go ahead and pack it into freezer bags.
Works like a charm every time!
Loved watching you get things organized and stocked up!
I would love to see more shelf stable meals! My freezers are so full!!
dying freezers is why I love wireless thermometers. You can put it in your fridge/freezer and get notified on your phone if the temperature is increasing. They give you enough time to act and save the food :)
You are such an inspiration Becky 🙏🏻
You're so motivating, Becky! Thanks!! ❤
I have learned it is better to not store plastic containers directly on concrete floors. Just setting the containers up on scraps of, say, 2×4s, allows air to circulate between the concrete and container. I encourage you to check this out for yourself. Thanks for all your great videos!
Pallets are a great way to store those containers off the ground and we can get them from our Azure driver at the drop or just about any store in town will give them away.
Makes sense!
I can't wait to see how you make the ginger turmeric shots. I love anything ginger and turmeric but refused to spend $3 or $4 on a shot. Thanks for bringing us along. 😊
Yes would like seeing this in a video.
I always love the end result of filling freezers and the pantry .
Love y’all’s videos. You and Josh make the best couple!!! You inspire us all to do more with less and mix it up if you don’t have all the things we need. I sure have learned from all your cooking videos. Thanks so much for all you do and teach!!! ❤
I watch your videos every day on my way to work and on the way home! I just got a home this year and can't wait to start my own little garden, even though it'll only be a handful of plants! You're such an inspiration to so many!! Keep being you! ❤️
I am so happy for you! You will LOVE gardening!
Gotta follow the recipes, especially on things that are tried and true. Thus, no more failures like caramelized onions!
This sounds kind of snobby. It could have just been that she used red onions. Yellow onions might hav ebbene better.
You’re awesome Becky! You really have inspired me in so many ways!
Hi Becky! You are awesome! Great job on your cleanup and tidying. Love the Azure order!
One thing my daughter discovered at a local farmers market is wine jelly. Yep, jelly that is made from wine :) Its really good and complements a charcuterie board really well.
Ohhh!!! A wine/jalapeno jelly! Or a White wine/citrus jelly! Becky - make that!
I’ve heard that you can freeze the wine in ice cube trays so that way if you need just a little bit you have it. Jessica at three rivers just started a red wine vinegar and I think she just put a scoby in it from another vinegar.
I love this channel so much! I have been inspired to start canning as I have started my own garden. Love it!
Becky I enjoy your videos on how you make it easier and organized things ❤
@Acre Homestead you should by the felt dividers for pots that you could place between your 9x15 or 9x13 casserole dishes. Might keep them from chipping or breaking. Super cheap and useful.
I use old dish towels between mine but felt dividers would look MUCH prettier. Great idea!
@@mimiashford5544 I had just got a large assortment of sizes on Amazon. They seemed reasonably priced. I use between my pots and pans and serving dishes. Helps prevent chips and dings. Whatever works. 🙂
Hey Becky! I've found that a wet erase marker works perfect for labeling your reusable bags and then it just washes off and it's ready for next time!
Try one jar of your carmelized . Aonions add the ingredients you left out and taste that alice
Great job on staying on tasks for organizing. Becky you are the best.
When you pull the cheese out of the freezer let it thaw on the counter instead of the fridge. It will retain its texture better that way. The cheese will get slimy and clumpy when thawed in the fridge.
For the left over wine, I would go back in your recipe file and come up with some freezer meals that require wine sauce and use them up as a wine cooking freezer meal day. I can see you doing that for sure! The lemon juice can be turned into a cleaner as well as spray it in the garden to keep bugs away and animals from using your flowerbeds and garden for litter boxes.
great idea! thank you!
@Acre Homestead you can also freeze the wine itself in bags/ice cube trays/containers to bring out when a recepie calls for wine. You can just put it in the pot straight from the freezer 😁
You can also donate unwanted items to the local food pantry. It can bless some othrr family who needs it.
Hi Becky love your videos. You can fix your carmalized onions by adding one third of your canning jar of water to a pot share they will be mostly covered by the water. Then add 4 to 6 tablespoons of white sugar and bring it up to a simmer. You need to keep an eye on it. When the water has evaporated take it out of the pot and put it in a frying pan. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of white sugar and stir the onions to coat. Gently try them for about 5 minutes then take of the heat. They then should have the nice carmalized flavor you were looking for.😊
I sure do hope you have a great weekend!! Thank you for sharing your day !!
Thank you for being you Becky. Always a joy to hang out with you.🫶🏻🌷
We upgraded to an industrial size vacuum sealer. We had went through 4 food savers over the years... food savers are great for light occasional, we are very happy with the industrial vaccum sealer, we use ours often, we use it alot during garden season, we also process our meat with wild game and fish. The down size to the industrial vaccum sealer we got it is huge and weighs alot more than food saver... the plus side its a work horse..
It never ceases to amaze me how much Becky gets done in a day. And that's not even including taking care of an infant, two dogs, and chickens. She's definitely an inspiration for me to raise the bar.
I 2nd that.... if I could bottle just a tiny bit of her energy, I'd get so much done : D I LOVE the dad's of today though too, my ex-husband wouldn't change a diaper to save his soul... I'd be up to my elbows mixing bread and he'd come out with the baby at arms length telling me the baby needs a new diaper,,, and I used cloth diapers ( at home- I kept huggies for trips to the park, or a picnic, or beach day) but - that man drove me crazy LOL
Not to mention running her YT video business - of which editing all her wonderful videos would be a significant component!
Becky is so lucky baby will sit and coo off camera for decent periods of time for her. My first baby has been SUUUPER clingy since he was born and still is today at 19. My second was like baby acre. My first would take nice long regular naps, but if i dared to try and take a shower or do housework he would wake up and demand to be held. Id have to shower with curtain open and him sitting on floor so he could see me. I WISH id had the money to buy a moby with him because i literally spent his first 2 years never being out of touch range of him. Even now at 19 im like “kid, quit bothering me and find something to do!” God love him 😂
Someone gifted me a moby wrap with my 2nd and i immediately and deeply regretted not having one with my first. 2nd would play or lie on the floor content for hours. Heck, he would get MAD if held too much. Hes still demands mama snuggles nightly at 16, but always been an independent cuss.
“Easy” first babies should always happen because man its rough when they aren’t!
Yeah…let’s not assume she’s “doing it all.” She has a lot of help to be able to do the things she does. This is not a standard I’d want for myself or any of my new moms i care for. It’s good for new moms to slow down and bond with their babies…if caring for your baby is all you can manage, that’s amazing, too. 💕
@@shesgotdogs me too…it’s a bit sad to witness it. I used to like her stuff a whole lot more so I watch once in a while; that’s all I can handle. Lots of concerns for me, but I don’t say too much lest the comment police come after me.
That's what I do too with cheese. I shred a bunch and keep it in my freezer. It works perfectly as long as you don't pack it into the bags!
Your freezer will run more efficiently if it is full and will have a longer life. If you have empty plastic gallon jugs, fill them 3/4 full and put them in the freezer. Then you can easily recycle them as you fill it up with food.
Becky, I love seeing your basement pantry! All your hard work is so beautiful to look at.
Just in the right time. New Pantry Videos.. love it
Hi Becky, everything looks so organized which makes what you are looking for so much easier. 😊❤

First thing that popped up when I googled it..."Freeze-dried breastmilk retains more nutrients than traditional freezer storage. It's shelf stable, travel friendly and can be added to your babe's foods when transitioning to solids or simply added to water, juice or smoothies!"
I grate all my block cheese and freeze it. If making quiche or sauces I use it straight from the freezer. It works great and I don’t have to hand process it every time. Thanks Becky, loved video again xx
Becky, you're just the sweetest person. I love how you speak to all of us like we've been friends for years. Love to see all of the organized pantry shelves. It looks great!
Love watching all your ideas! You're so creative!!❤
I don’t know what it is about watching your videos that makes me feel lazy and I HAVE to get up and do the things 😂. You motivated me to get my bare root strawberries planted in the Green Stalk I got with your sale code today. I have a bad habit of waiting longer than I should to plant live plants that I order! Thanks friend!❤
Hi Bec, watching you helps me to get motivated to achieve my dreams. Regards from Australia
Hey Becky, wonderful video as always. Quick note to you. Sometimes I buy bulk cheese as well but what I do is cut the block into smaller pieces, around the size you initially cut them in and I wrap each piece in foil and then put them in freezer bags and freeze them,. The foil and bag combo does a great job of preserving the cheese with no freezer burn whatsoever. I just pull out a piece or two and thaw them before I cook. I just love your videos and instantly stop whatever I'm doing to watch you as soon as I get a notification. LOL!! Love to you, Josh and Baby A.
Truly a beautiful community she has created and growing with every video. I can’t wait to see the new raised garden beds and what’s to come. She takes it all on with an energy that is contagious. I haven’t bought shredded cheese in months. I’m so very happy for them.😊
Hi Becky, I laughed out loud when you put your coat on over your apron cause that is definitely something I would do. When ever I work in the yard/garden I wear my apron to save my clothes. I often forget I still have it on.
Opened RUclips hoping you had a video so I can start my chores 😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ thank you!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’ve grown corn in raised beds for a few years now. Works great. Just be sure to keep watered well and don’t plant them too close together. Otherwise, I’ve done fine with it. Good luck!
You may also want to furrow the corn hills so more water gets absorbed in the soil and roots🌽
Hi Becky! Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed this pantry & processing video! Thank you for sharing all your knowledge! ❤
Really looking forward to you and your mother in-laws canning day. As always Becky you are an inspiration and I look forward to your videos. Thank you!
Your messy buns are ALWAYS on point girl! 😍 I've never been able to master the messy bun lol. Anyway, you are goals in every way and I admire your spirit. Thanks for all the inspiration 😊
Have you seen Becky with her hair down? OMG, she quickly took it down in a vlog & re did her bun before goin in a store & I was blown away. It changed her look, but she has beautiful hair. Super thick, with a ton of volume & body then she looks much different with it down as well. I loved it.
Your organization is an inspiration! Also I love the nude manicure. It looks so elegant.
I love watching your videos. You are so industrious but calming at the same time. You just ooze motivation. I watch your video and feel like I can do anything too. Thank you.
