Lisa if you read this, you might enjoy getting your kids a salt gun for the flies. We live near a lot of dairies and finally got a salt gun to shoot the flies and my kids absolutely love this “chore” and we get rid of all of the flies so I love it!
Also the normal life of everyones ancestors. This used to be the norm. However, our ancestors didnt necessarily run their own business in todays context. They did sew clothing for their families and volunteer.
Love seeing this "behind the scenes" kinda look. And I love when you aren't "fixed up"/wearing makeup bc it reminds me that most of us just look natural most the time and we're still perty cute. ;)
I just found your channel, but I wanted to say that I love the authenticity in your videos. So many videos on social media-whether they are about homemaking, parenting, hobbies, etc-are so edited and only show the picture perfect side of things. And it makes viewers (myself included) feel as if what they're doing isn't good enough...or natural enough...or eco enough. I love that you show the realistic balance of life. You milk your own cow, bake sourdough, and make cheese and ALSO order groceries from Walmart. You keep things natural but you ALSO use bleach and clorox. Thank you for not filtering out all of the "not picturesque" realities that so many content makers seem to do.
As a child in summer I would spent a couple of weeks at my grandmothers farm. She had fly strips hanging also. Funny thing, on the front porch I would swat them and she would always say, “As the saying goes…The more you kill, more will come for their funeral.” LOL I learned so much staying with her.❤
Well, I’m exhausted. 🤪 You are the Energizer Bunny for sure. I am in absolute awe of all you do and your beautiful family. I know by now you have your precious new baby because I’ve already watched that video. I can’t imagine what you are going to do in your spare time with only 8 children, a husband and a farm to look after. 😁. What an inspiration you are.
I love how you use the language "address"😂 It feels so much better than saying "I'm going to clean. I'm going to do laundry. I have to fold things." Somehow, "Adressing the laundry/addressing the porch" seems SO much better to me and my brain! I'm going to use this!
You are amazing!...... so much work in one day........ I'm almost 64 now and have slowed down alot.... forgot how active I used to be with four little ones, until I saw how much you accomplish in one day! Say hi to Paige Sander for all of us who loved her as well. I think about her every once in awhile..... I was a career woman who came to kids late in life..... and had an epiphany with my first that I needed to re-order my life because my new found 1000% love of my little babies was so much more important than my career...... that I previously thought was the most important thing!.........I had 4 babies in 4 years..... because I just loved them so much...... now they are awesome adults 28, 26.5. 25. 24.... but I totally get chucking the career to embrace the little people......anyways, cheers to you both!
One of our favorite twists on the dutch babies is to make it savory. I never add the sugar into the batter; if we are having it sweet, I sprinkle a cinnamon/sugar mix on top. For the savory then, I'll throw cheese on top of it, and any sauteed veggies and any meat we have on hand, and sprinkle a little garlic salt over it all before popping it into the oven. Helps to use up random leftovers, and some of the family prefer the savory version😃
I’ve recently discovered your channel and I’m just now making your cinnamon roll recipe! Love watching you care for the house. It’s really inspired me being a new mom!
I love your content. I love to see how intentional you are. I love to see the laundry out back and I love to see your home decor ❤ it brings me down to earth when social media takes me off to a materialistic technological world.
#### I am so old school. I RARELY thaw beef, chicken or whatever in the refrig. I pull it out and set it on the counter top and just keep an eye on it. If I have to leave for a while, then maybe put it in the refrig. just in case I am gone too long.
Lisa, I just love watching your videos. Your voice is so soothing. I am a 70 yo single lady that loves to bake bread and bake about anything. I give most of it away as I can not eat it all. I have never made anything with sourdough but used your recipe to stat my starter last night and going to give it a try. I don’t know how you go all day like you do but you seems so relaxed about it. I love how you keep your babies close, babies need that loving touch. Bless you and your family. 💕💕💕💕💕
Monday! Monday!😎 You are one Organized Mom!!!! You run your home w/ the business of including ur children to task. School of Life & everyday Living! I admire your skills Thanks for Inspiration!❤️
I’m right with you on using oldest inventory before replenishing fridge, freezer and pantry. A few years back, I developed a plan to quarterly, skip weekly grocery shopping ti force us to use up older inventory. Sure we may run out of yogurt or other perishables but using what we have on hand forces us to get creative and greatly reduce food waste. Just love re-stocking when all areas are clean & organized ahead of time.
I just discovered your channel 😊 as I spend 6 weeks at home recovering from major surgery. As a full-time working mama of 2 littles, I have always felt overwhelmed and behind. Watching your channel with your direct and calming voice has helped me relax as I can't do all the things I'm used to - the cooking, the cleaning, all the things. ❤
It’s lovely to watch a mother and daughter work side by side in the kitchen ❤ that pie looks scrumptious Johanna congratulations on a wonderful pie I’m sure it tasted as good as it looked 😊
Thanks for giving me so many inspiration in creating the flow of homemaking. You have made things easier to follow, especially for the first time mom. Thanks Lisa. :)
With me working full time, my house reset is Thursday-Friday. I like to give the house a once over, fresh towels, empty trash, clear the decks, stop for groceries, grab some flowers. I’m ready and our home is ready for the weekend. We live on a lake and our summer decor is the same for the porch, towels, life jackets, water shoes, swimsuits, all adorn the porch. When ask how we decorate for summer, come see our porch. Wouldn’t have it anyway. A sign of what summer is all about!
You really are a wonder! You must be so tired at the end of the day..... with baby coming & all - - hard working momma, that is for sure! That pie looked so good -- YUM! Johanna is such a helper in the kitchen! I hope you had fun with your girlfriends visiting & that you got some down time with them, too. Enjoy your summer, Lisa & family!
These videos are always so helpful for me. I've been a homemaker for almost 5 years now and I had no idea what I was doing when I started. Thanks to ladies like you, I at least have SOME idea what I'm doing 😅🥴 just had my second child almost 2 months ago and feeling much more confident as a mom this time around 😂 thanks again for sharing your routines. I never had an example of how to be a wife/mother/homemaker so this is beyond helpful.
You impressed me lady. I honestly don’t think I’ve seen such a hardworking lady. Home school children run a business keep house. Reminds me of Little House on the Prairie. Plus your pregnant 🤰most hard working momma on RUclips. First time I watched you today. Yes your right when we’re at home we don’t bother with makeup only when going out or if someone is going to see us.
I like these types of videos that you make the best…very authentic and real life. Also, I always and my mom always let meat thaw in the sink never knew that it could be a problem 🤷🏻♀️
My dad use to wrap those fly strips around his old straw hat when he was working outside. Kept not only the flies but the gnats from flying in his eyes.
My Moma laid the meat out in the sink so that's what I've always done so far so good I've survived it 58 years my Moma is still going to lol Lisa I love your videos such great things you do you inspire me I've just found you and already I've got the antique bug again I had stopped I had some currier and ives now I know Harry Laughlin I've always collected tea pots an pitchers have old platters now I'm just reinterested I love it love the old stuff Thank you so much
Just watching your videos makes me tired if I put myself in your shoes. You are truly amazing & Im sure I am among rhe numerous women who said this to you
Oh my goodness. I admire you so. I'm tired just watching you. You're like an Energized bunny you just keep going. God bless you and your precious family.
JUST found your channel. LOVE IT ♥️ You remind me of me kinda. It’s my lifestyle , only 3 children ( grown up now ) I scratch cook everything, I wash on a washboard BUT there’s a reason… I lost my house twin an electrical fire in the middle of the night a year and a half ago. -… my son was here and had 95% of his back burned getting out me and pets. He’s a breeder of Siberian Husky’s which is hard to do in an apartment in a city- I live so far off the road, my sides and backyard is surrounded by woods- can’t even see street lights. I’ve been here 39 years- I say here because I have many gardens that I need more than the gardens need me 😄. I grabbed an apartment in town as it allowed dogs snd the hips wouldn’t release my son unless it was to a clean environment. He’s healed great, actually just got the ok to go to work, My dog went into heet. -and the two males go crazy and FIGHT for alpha title , so I said I’d bring her back up here for the heet so we didn’t get evicted 😄 l never rented before, my son wasn’t comfortable with that AS I brought my small flock of hens in the porch that night as the coywolves were howling- my hens didn’t stand a chance 😪 I lost them, my calico kitten, and 2 huskys … the firemen brought my girl out and took her to the vet- she’s fine and no sign of being traumatized. I couldn’t get out- my son pulled me out and I lost grip on a very scared dog and she wouldn’t come to the window - they found her with her head under my pillows 🙏. ANYWAY- to bring her up home for that heet I bought a small camper. It came the end of May ,2 months after the fire, went back to the apartment when hurricane Fiona hit… I came this year in April, and if I could get a wood stove that would fit in here- I’d stay year round. I cook outside a lot in the old wood stove , I have a oven that sets on top and it bakes beautiful. Until I can be here year round I can’t get hens or goats. I LOVE your garden, and your house is amazing. I’ve always lived as rustic as possible and am big on the OLD WAYS ARE THE BEST WAY. This week I’m bringing in one of those twin tub washer spin dryers- it’ll cut laundry down to less than half the time- I’m arthritic and can’t wring out the bedding. I’m definalty trying some of your recipes - I’ve never made mozzarella cheese and gonna try that too… I will tell you I wasn’t as energetic when my children were small - I watch you going snd it’s just all with ease. And all those babies ♥️♥️♥️♥️🥰🥰🥰. I had C sections and back then it was only 3 babies. The incision was up and down which now they fo the smaller incision across the bottom. I wanted a dozen or more children BUT… 😢 I really enjoy your channel, I’ve been binge watching every day it rains 😄 In the speech of today’s children YOU GO GIRL. ♥️ Just proof read and goodness I wrote you a book 😯. Not cutting it down though, my fingers are in a knot from writing all this 😄. 🙏 BLESS you and your family. I’m going to share your channel as the little ones I babysat, have children of there own and you’ll be an in inspiration to them
Your comment on the toaster was so funny! I too have recently bought a toaster and it has been wonderful! We had one years ago and I got rid of it by accident during one of my many "purge and simplify our home" moments. I love the simplified home but we have decided that life is simplified even more WITH a toaster. Thank you for your videos, you are a blessing.
Do you have links for your kitchen utensils and tools? I love the large jar with the glass top that you have your sourdough start in along with several other things.
Thoroughly enjoy spending my mornings watching your videos. I am not sure when your baby is due, but any day I expect to see a baby video. Cannot wait. Your videos are so inspiring. Have a blessed week
Thank you so much I am learning how to do this. I don't have anyone close to me that lives like this. I am a mama of 6 children and wish I could have been doing this all along. I am watching you and learning!
I find your videos so inspiring, love all your baking and cooking, do you ever get time to just sit for a bit? I get exhausted just watching all your chores, greetings from Ontario, Canada.
I’m a middle aged woman who loves your channel and blog. (And your sister’s too! 😊). I enjoy your approach to cooking and life in general-I got a chuckle out of seeing the “roomba” (or the like) working your floors as you work. That type of help must be a welcome reprieve with all you have to juggle!! Keep on keeping on ❤…..
My kids made up a song to remember the recipe for 1 13 x 9 then they jus multiply however many pans they need. Now as grown kids with kids they have taught their kids the song. 4 eggs, cup of milk, cup of flour. Then butter in the pan. Super easy breakfast but my kids used it as a snack food as well. And we topped it multiple item’s depending on what we had. Cheese and tomato with gr. Onions, salsa, powder sugar, cinnamon, apples etc.
You are totally right. There is so much to do in a house. I like also when you cook and explain the recipes. Furthermore, I like your aprons. Although I like wearing such aprons.
As a young muslim woman I was and still is inspired by your work. This is an important message to inspire women with. Hopefully, I can get to become a good homemaker one day, If God wills it. I also like the simplicity and authenticity with which you show us your days; normal daily life is packed with God's blessings for the hearts that see and appreciate it. Allow me to pray a simple yet most important prayer on my way out: In the name of Allah (The God), the Entirely Merciful (to All creation), the Especially Merciful (To believers). [All] praise is [due] to Allah, Lord of the worlds - The Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful, The Sovereign of the Day of Recompense. It is You we worship and You we ask for help. Guide us to the straight path - The path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not of those who have evoked [Your] anger or of those who are astray. Amen
Yes girlfriend! You get that toaster!!! :) it’s one of those appliances that I just can’t minimize. Gotta have it in the kitchen. I like your idea of just adding to the delivery list throughout the week and having your Monday morning delivery set up.
Your sourdough no knead recipe is my very favorite. My husband chef and baker loves it so. Thank you for making sourdough so understandable. Bless you. I love making it.
Oh my goodness! Monday is Eveready bunny day! Well - as a homesteading, homeschooling family of 9 and3/4, everyday is probably Eveready bunny day. But Mondays for sure!
I don't make another meal. For the little ones, I serve a little of each thing on their plate and they will eat what they want. There is always something that they like...
You do a great job explaining your recipes and techniques. I love how you show us the everyday living. I do miss the videos with less content and music, added though.
I have to add something to this conversation. I grew up in the city, but was always in love with country life. Growing up reading Tasha Tudor, little house series, Anne of green gables, etc... I was a dreamer. I've grown up, had seven kids, and have battled my shortcomings constantly. I am not naturally good at anything that requires structure. I'm like a leaf blown in the wind. My home reflects that... My kids don't have a lot of discipline in the areas of diligence. The house is always a mess, and it seems like we're always cleaning. We're always late, and behind. We have pigs, chickens, rabbits, and I've taught myself to slaughter, butcher, cure, cook, ferment and so many other cool things. However, I don't do any of it with finesse, consistency, or efficiency. I have breakdowns where I just feel like a failure, and I cry. The thing is, I was raised very unconventionally, with little to no structure. My parents are wonderful, but I was the baby, and just left to do my own thing. I don't think I'll ever be what I want, but I have come to accept that it's better to pursue beautiful things, even if you don't do it well, than to convince yourself to what you're good at. If I stuck to what I could do well, I wouldn't have my God, family, or lifestyle to constantly challenge my selfish, lazy nature. I just wanted to say that for anyone who feels as "loser-y" as I often do, don't compare yourself to others. If you're pursuing something lovely, good, and worthy, be thankful that you are capable of recognizing what's worth pursuing, because many people are lost with no direction at all. And think of where you'd be without the desire to be better? We should let ourselves get excited about every tiny accomplishment, like an edible loaf of bread! 🤣 And not dwell on how it wasn't perfect, and how the whole kitchen is trashed. Lisa is amazing, and I can appreciate her accomplishments without comparing myself to her.
When my kids were still at home, they loved Dutch Baby pancakes! I had chickens and a garden, and we ate a lot of wild meat. One of my kids was allergic to preservatives which I rarely fed my kids, but I became very intentional with what I fed them. I bought raw milk when I could. This brings back sweet memories!
My mom, sister and I have always thawed meat in the sink if need for use that day. If it’s for the evening meal and is thawed before ready to cook - we will put it in the fridge until needed. 58 years old and never caused an issue. Love your channel! ❤
I am catching-up on 3 weeks of being off social media and even most internet, so found this video very much the potpourri of tasks that I have awaiting me after an unusually lengthy pause in many personal and professional tasks that could be on hold.
You must have boundless energy! You work so hard! I am exhausted just watching you! My 9 kids are all grown up now. We started homeschooling in 1984. We bought an old farmhouse on 6 acres and got goats and chickens. We lived in that house for 30+ years but we only kept the goats and chickens for a couple of years. We never quite got into homesteading because it was just too hard for us!

Expert level homemaking, pregnant, and running your own business. You are amazing!

Astonishing how much you accomplish! What a fortunate family to have such a creative wife and mother!

Thank you for not filtering out all of the "not picturesque" realities that so many content makers seem to do.
I absolutely love to see a young woman with a large family just doing what you do. It’s amazing. Love watching you & all your ideas.
As a child in summer I would spent a couple of weeks at my grandmothers farm. She had fly strips hanging also. Funny thing, on the front porch I would swat them and she would always say, “As the saying goes…The more you kill, more will come for their funeral.” LOL I learned so much staying with her.❤

Somehow, "Adressing the laundry/addressing the porch" seems SO much better to me and my brain! I'm going to use this!
Sooo true 😂😂
I like this too. It feels less guilt and shame filled, and more action-oriented. Thank you for this concept. 😊
I like that too.
Also saying "I get to do laundry" vs "I HAVE to do laundry" has helped me have a heart of gratitude ❤
You're the reason my sourdough starter is so successful because I truly just stopped measuring and did it by feel!! I love your home!
Wonderful!
Me too! And I rarely get a dud loaf following Lisa’s recipes. The bagels are still the favorite here 😍
Me three! 😂🎉
same!!
Same here!! It makes me so tired now when I see others carefully measuring and weighing sourdough. 😂
You are amazing!...... so much work in one day........ I'm almost 64 now and have slowed down alot.... forgot how active I used to be with four little ones, until I saw how much you accomplish in one day!
Say hi to Paige Sander for all of us who loved her as well. I think about her every once in awhile.....

With a baby coming soon, I don’t know how you have the energy to accomplish all you do in caring for your family and home!
Just wait til you see her prepare meals for her post partum days. She's the most organized and prepared "Mom of Many" out there in utube land.
Obviously, this lady has “high energy”.
I watcher her "birth video" earlier and she gets more done before she had her baby at noon than I get done all day 😅
Love your helper in the kitchen! Love that she is constantly talking to you! What a blessing our children are!❤
One of our favorite twists on the dutch babies is to make it savory. I never add the sugar into the batter; if we are having it sweet, I sprinkle a cinnamon/sugar mix on top.

That's a great idea! Thank you for sharing.
Fantastica donna instancabile!👏👏👏👏
I’ve recently discovered your channel and I’m just now making your cinnamon roll recipe! Love watching you care for the house. It’s really inspired me being a new mom!
You are proof that “having it all” is a possibility. Thank you for sharing and encouraging!!
I love your content. I love to see how intentional you are. I love to see the laundry out back and I love to see your home decor ❤ it brings me down to earth when social media takes me off to a materialistic technological world.
thank you!
I have never in my life thawed meat in the fridge. Always at room temp😂🙈. I didn't even know you weren't supposed to do that lol
#### I am so old school. I RARELY thaw beef, chicken or whatever in the refrig. I pull it out and set it on the counter top and just keep an eye on it. If I have to leave for a while, then maybe put it in the refrig. just in case I am gone too long.
We have a running joke when the weather starts warming up that it's time to put up the "extra fancy decorations" aka fly strips 😅
Lisa, I just love watching your videos. Your voice is so soothing. I am a 70 yo single lady that loves to bake bread and bake about anything. I give most of it away as I can not eat it all. I have never made anything with sourdough but used your recipe to stat my starter last night and going to give it a try. I don’t know how you go all day like you do but you seems so relaxed about it. I love how you keep your babies close, babies need that loving touch. Bless you and your family. 💕💕💕💕💕
Flour dish towels with shape, rise, boil, bake would be super fun😊
Love your daughter's stirring, talking, spoon flipping, rhythm. So fun! :)
shower caps are also a nice alternative to plastic bags for the baskets since they have the elastic and can be reused.
I love how you realized that you needed at toaster!! Haha! So sweet and wholesome. Bless you. ❤❤
This made me chuckle too! 😄
I am new to your channel and it is so relaxing to see you cook & prepare meals for the family. I love to bake when I have the chance
Monday! Monday!😎
You are one Organized Mom!!!!
You run your home w/ the business of including ur children to task.
School of Life & everyday Living! I admire your skills
Thanks for Inspiration!❤️
You are unstoppable, amazing, an inspiration !
I’m right with you on using oldest inventory before replenishing fridge, freezer and pantry.

Sure we may run out of yogurt or other perishables but using what we have on hand forces us to get creative and greatly reduce food waste. Just love re-stocking when all areas are clean & organized ahead of time.
I enjoy the challenge and it really does encourage creativity in the kitchen!
I did this last summer when our fridge was not working and we were low on cash! I am doing it again since the garden harvest is coming in.
I just discovered your channel 😊 as I spend 6 weeks at home recovering from major surgery. As a full-time working mama of 2 littles, I have always felt overwhelmed and behind.

Thank you for this video! Seeing things done in its natural order throughout the day makes it seem really doable. Just one step at a time!
My mom, too, and I always do that, thaw meat on the counter, or more often in the microwave so the cats don't get too interested.
I find your videos inspiring and I love to put them on and listen to them as I do homemaking tasks. 😊
You really are a wonder! You must be so tired at the end of the day..... with baby coming & all - - hard working momma, that is for sure! That pie looked so good -- YUM! Johanna is such a helper in the kitchen!

Yes! Thank you!

I'm so glad!
This is amazing. I am in awe of your hard work!
My gramma-mom and I always thawed/thaw on countertop to get the defrosting process started.
Hi Lisa i am enjoying your video the best part i like is the pizza makeing and lots of bread i end up learning so much. Gypsy From Michigan.
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
You impressed me lady. I honestly don’t think I’ve seen such a hardworking lady. Home school children run a business keep house. Reminds me of Little House on the Prairie. Plus your pregnant 🤰most hard working momma on RUclips. First time I watched you today. Yes your right when we’re at home we don’t bother with makeup only when going out or if someone is going to see us.
“Shape rise boil bake” oh I love it!! I would definitely buy that bagel shirt 🥯
I like these types of videos that you make the best…very authentic and real life. Also, I always and my mom always let meat thaw in the sink never knew that it could be a problem 🤷🏻♀️
Same! My mom always did it that way and so do I…overnight even.
So did my mother and so do I.
Another video full of inspiration and education. Thanks. So nice to see your girls learning at your side. 😊
My dad use to wrap those fly strips around his old straw hat when he was working outside. Kept not only the flies but the gnats from flying in his eyes.
great tip
shape, rise, boil, bake! I might try these.
You should!
Love it when you’re just being real 😊
You’re such an inspiration to me! I’m just getting started with it all…homeschooling, homesteading, etc. So thank you!
My Moma laid the meat out in the sink so that's what I've always done so far so good I've survived it 58 years my Moma is still going to lol Lisa I love your videos such great things you do you inspire me I've just found you and already I've got the antique bug again I had stopped I had some currier and ives now I know Harry Laughlin I've always collected tea pots an pitchers have old platters now I'm just reinterested I love it love the old stuff Thank you so much
LOVED this one! Thank you for taking us along.
Thank you for sharing a part of your life with us!!!
You are so welcome!
We made bagels for the first time this weekend (at my 3yo's request) and they turned out so great!
Love to hear that!!
Just watching your videos makes me tired if I put myself in your shoes. You are truly amazing & Im sure I am among rhe numerous women who said this to you
I know a girl who set up a "family closet" in the laundry room that was just bins for each kid - clean clothes went in the bin
I thaw meat that way too when I’m stuck with no thawed meat. Always have 🤷🏻♀️
I reuse my canning lids as well.
Super familia, and super video with Angels babys💟😇👣👣👣
Oh my goodness. I admire you so. I'm tired just watching you. You're like an Energized bunny you just keep going. God bless you and your precious family.
JUST found your channel. LOVE IT ♥️ You remind me of me kinda. It’s my lifestyle , only 3 children ( grown up now ) I scratch cook everything, I wash on a washboard BUT there’s a reason… I lost my house twin an electrical fire in the middle of the night a year and a half ago. -… my son was here and had 95% of his back burned getting out me and pets. He’s a breeder of Siberian Husky’s which is hard to do in an apartment in a city- I live so far off the road, my sides and backyard is surrounded by woods- can’t even see street lights. I’ve been here 39 years- I say here because I have many gardens that I need more than the gardens need me 😄.
I grabbed an apartment in town as it allowed dogs snd the hips wouldn’t release my son unless it was to a clean environment. He’s healed great, actually just got the ok to go to work, My dog went into heet. -and the two males go crazy and FIGHT for alpha title , so I said I’d bring her back up here for the heet so we didn’t get evicted 😄 l never rented before, my son wasn’t comfortable with that AS I brought my small flock of hens in the porch that night as the coywolves were howling- my hens didn’t stand a chance 😪 I lost them, my calico kitten, and 2 huskys … the firemen brought my girl out and took her to the vet- she’s fine and no sign of being traumatized. I couldn’t get out- my son pulled me out and I lost grip on a very scared dog and she wouldn’t come to the window - they found her with her head under my pillows 🙏. ANYWAY- to bring her up home for that heet I bought a small camper. It came the end of May ,2 months after the fire, went back to the apartment when hurricane Fiona hit… I came this year in April, and if I could get a wood stove that would fit in here- I’d stay year round. I cook outside a lot in the old wood stove , I have a oven that sets on top and it bakes beautiful. Until I can be here year round I can’t get hens or goats. I LOVE your garden, and your house is amazing. I’ve always lived as rustic as possible and am big on the OLD WAYS ARE THE BEST WAY. This week I’m bringing in one of those twin tub washer spin dryers- it’ll cut laundry down to less than half the time- I’m arthritic and can’t wring out the bedding. I’m definalty trying some of your recipes - I’ve never made mozzarella cheese and gonna try that too… I will tell you I wasn’t as energetic when my children were small - I watch you going snd it’s just all with ease. And all those babies ♥️♥️♥️♥️🥰🥰🥰. I had C sections and back then it was only 3 babies. The incision was up and down which now they fo the smaller incision across the bottom. I wanted a dozen or more children BUT… 😢 I really enjoy your channel, I’ve been binge watching every day it rains 😄 In the speech of today’s children YOU GO GIRL. ♥️
Just proof read and goodness I wrote you a book 😯. Not cutting it down though, my fingers are in a knot from writing all this 😄. 🙏 BLESS you and your family. I’m going to share your channel as the little ones I babysat, have children of there own and you’ll be an in inspiration to them
Sounds like you are a survivor and hard worker! Thanks for sharing.
I always defrost meat out of the fridge it's ok just need to refrigerate when it's defrosted
Your comment on the toaster was so funny! I too have recently bought a toaster and it has been wonderful! We had one years ago and I got rid of it by accident during one of my many "purge and simplify our home" moments. I love the simplified home but we have decided that life is simplified even more WITH a toaster. Thank you for your videos, you are a blessing.
Thank you for sharing your life with us. You get done so much in 1 day! 😊
Do you have links for your kitchen utensils and tools? I love the large jar with the glass top that you have your sourdough start in along with several other things.

Thoroughly enjoy spending my mornings watching your videos. I am not sure when your baby is due, but any day I expect to see a baby video. Cannot wait. Your videos are so inspiring. Have a blessed week
Due this month
A toaster oven holds more toast and works better for big families 😉!
Thank you so much I am learning how to do this. I don't have anyone close to me that lives like this. I am a mama of 6 children and wish I could have been doing this all along. I am watching you and learning!
You can do it!
Wow, that’s a lot of work!
You amaze me! I cannot believe what you do in a day!❤
I find your videos so inspiring, love all your baking and cooking, do you ever get time to just sit for a bit? I get exhausted just watching all your chores, greetings from Ontario, Canada.
Actually I do!
I’m a middle aged woman who loves your channel and blog. (And your sister’s too! 😊). I enjoy your approach to cooking and life in general-I got a chuckle out of seeing the “roomba” (or the like) working your floors as you work. That type of help must be a welcome reprieve with all you have to juggle!! Keep on keeping on ❤…..
What is her sister’s channel name
Our oily house
My kids made up a song to remember the recipe for 1 13 x 9 then they jus multiply however many pans they need. Now as grown kids with kids they have taught their kids the song. 4 eggs, cup of milk, cup of flour. Then butter in the pan. Super easy breakfast but my kids used it as a snack food as well. And we topped it multiple item’s depending on what we had. Cheese and tomato with gr. Onions, salsa, powder sugar, cinnamon, apples etc.
How fun! Thank you for sharing!
You are totally right. There is so much to do in a house. I like also when you cook and explain the recipes. Furthermore, I like your aprons. Although I like wearing such aprons.
Okay I NEED the “shape, rise, boil, bake” merch!!!
As a young muslim woman I was and still is inspired by your work. This is an important message to inspire women with. Hopefully, I can get to become a good homemaker one day, If God wills it.
I also like the simplicity and authenticity with which you show us your days; normal daily life is packed with God's blessings for the hearts that see and appreciate it.
Allow me to pray a simple yet most important prayer on my way out:
In the name of Allah (The God), the Entirely Merciful (to All creation), the Especially Merciful (To believers).
[All] praise is [due] to Allah, Lord of the worlds -
The Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful,
The Sovereign of the Day of Recompense.
It is You we worship and You we ask for help.
Guide us to the straight path -
The path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not of those who have evoked [Your] anger or of those who are astray.
Amen
Wow. I am exhausted just watching. You are amazing.❤
Yes girlfriend! You get that toaster!!! :) it’s one of those appliances that I just can’t minimize. Gotta have it in the kitchen. I like your idea of just adding to the delivery list throughout the week and having your Monday morning delivery set up.
Your sourdough no knead recipe is my very favorite. My husband chef and baker loves it so. Thank you for making sourdough so understandable. Bless you. I love making it.
You are so welcome!
This video really motivated me to get in the kitchen and make homemade food
Best compliment ever! Love to hear this.
Oh my goodness! Monday is Eveready bunny day! Well - as a homesteading, homeschooling family of 9 and3/4, everyday is probably Eveready bunny day. But Mondays for sure!
Johanna amazes me. I really enjoy watching her work in the kitchen.
Lovely, to see your daughter baking with you.
She loves baking and makes us good treats!
I love these videos ! So refreshing cleaning out the fridge.
I always thaw meat at room temp…whoops haha. Never had an issue with it!
How do you get your kids to eat the same meal as you? Maybe you can do a video on this, your tips. Thanks in advance.
Dont give them any snacks, they'll learn to be hungry and actually eat their food.
I don't make another meal. For the little ones, I serve a little of each thing on their plate and they will eat what they want. There is always something that they like...
Spectacular video! I could watch every Monday!
I'm exhausted just watching this, such a hard worker! You're an inspiration!
What a great video. How fun that you're getting a toaster!
You do a great job explaining your recipes and techniques. I love how you show us the everyday living. I do miss the videos with less content and music, added though.
Yes, I miss those, too..... very soothing & relaxing. Agreed.. : )
I have to add something to this conversation. I grew up in the city, but was always in love with country life. Growing up reading Tasha Tudor, little house series, Anne of green gables, etc... I was a dreamer. I've grown up, had seven kids, and have battled my shortcomings constantly. I am not naturally good at anything that requires structure. I'm like a leaf blown in the wind. My home reflects that... My kids don't have a lot of discipline in the areas of diligence. The house is always a mess, and it seems like we're always cleaning. We're always late, and behind. We have pigs, chickens, rabbits, and I've taught myself to slaughter, butcher, cure, cook, ferment and so many other cool things. However, I don't do any of it with finesse, consistency, or efficiency. I have breakdowns where I just feel like a failure, and I cry.
The thing is, I was raised very unconventionally, with little to no structure. My parents are wonderful, but I was the baby, and just left to do my own thing.
I don't think I'll ever be what I want, but I have come to accept that it's better to pursue beautiful things, even if you don't do it well, than to convince yourself to what you're good at.
If I stuck to what I could do well, I wouldn't have my God, family, or lifestyle to constantly challenge my selfish, lazy nature.
I just wanted to say that for anyone who feels as "loser-y" as I often do, don't compare yourself to others. If you're pursuing something lovely, good, and worthy, be thankful that you are capable of recognizing what's worth pursuing, because many people are lost with no direction at all. And think of where you'd be without the desire to be better?
We should let ourselves get excited about every tiny accomplishment, like an edible loaf of bread! 🤣 And not dwell on how it wasn't perfect, and how the whole kitchen is trashed.
Lisa is amazing, and I can appreciate her accomplishments without comparing myself to her.
Thank you for sharing with us!
When my kids were still at home, they loved Dutch Baby pancakes! I had chickens and a garden, and we ate a lot of wild meat. One of my kids was allergic to preservatives which I rarely fed my kids, but I became very intentional with what I fed them. I bought raw milk when I could. This brings back sweet memories!
Thanks for sharing!!
Wow, Mondays are busy for you.
My mom, sister and I have always thawed meat in the sink if need for use that day. If it’s for the evening meal and is thawed before ready to cook - we will put it in the fridge until needed. 58 years old and never caused an issue. Love your channel! ❤
Thank you!
I am catching-up on 3 weeks of being off social media and even most internet, so found this video very much the potpourri of tasks that I have awaiting me after an unusually lengthy pause in many personal and professional tasks that could be on hold.
What a great idea to make your online grocery cart your list throughout the week!! Genius!!
Love the merch idea! Love your videos and the inspiration you give!❤
You must have boundless energy! You work so hard! I am exhausted just watching you! My 9 kids are all grown up now. We started homeschooling in 1984. We bought an old farmhouse on 6 acres and got goats and chickens. We lived in that house for 30+ years but we only kept the goats and chickens for a couple of years. We never quite got into homesteading because it was just too hard for us!
I’m laughing your so excited about a toaster!😂
Wow! Those artisan loaves looked beautiful! ❤
