      Lol. Me too.
      It is so satisfying watching her clean up the mess that was made with her crops. I even felt the lightness through my phone screen after it was clean up. My heart felt so happy, it started beating faster. Lol
      Mess drives me crazy, cleanliness put me at peace and comfort.
      Ask my children how i react whenever i walked into a messy house. I start yelling and throwing things, clean it up right this minute. This isn't a pig pen or trash bin. It better be done by the time i get out of the shower otherwise your behind is grass. Lol. Then you see and hear them planing and running around getting it done before i am done.
      Once i told them when i was single without children i only use to do one major clean on fridays after work and laundry is done on saturday. But clean up after everything during the week, so my place was always clean. Now with you tansmania children, my place can't stay clean for 2 days. I will start yelling, i want my life back when there were no mess. Lol.
      But i love my 2 girls, i only say that out of frustration because i can't dwell or live in mess. My brain can't comprehend it no matter how i try. I wasn't raised like that, so my children call me a clean freak.
      Lol

    Becky, please move your onions away from the potatoes. Onions produce ethylene gas which will spoil the potatoes more quickly and the moisture content of the potatoes may cause the onions to rot.

      Interesting bit of storage education. Love how simple things that we don’t know about can be worth so very much. Never knew that about onions and potatoes being stored right next with each other can shorten their long term life. I knew the gas’s from onions and I try to store them up off the ground but not that they and the potatoes won’t last as long.
      OMGosh. I’m so excited to see this post storing these items.

      I can attest to this. I reorganized my pantry and placed them in stacking boxes on top of each other and wondered why I had to keep buying potatoes and why it smelled funky. I separated them and lo and behold, my potatoes last longer. And my onions don't sprout. I unfortunately can't have them separated right now (tiny apartment + samsclub membership is an adventure) and I'm already noticing bad signs. I hope to do a big prep day so I can use them up and be able to separate them again

    Becky, when baking bread, if you are wanting it to rise even more during the baking process, place a metal cake pan in the oven below your baking sheet and place 2 cupsful of ice cubes in it. As the ice melts it causes a steaming effect in your oven which forces the dough to rise even more than it already has. Happy baking!!!

    I noticed you said your chickens “won’t” eat onions. I want to be sure you know onions are toxic to chickens. So, avoid giving them to your chickens.

      @@user-bq2oz5cs7t Yes the peelings are definately toxic to fowl. But if you boil them until cooked the whole way theyre ok. The cooking causes the tannins in the peel to change from toxic to fine for fowl to eat. I just dip out the cooked potatoes and dump the peelings into the same water until done. Saves the water and time bringing it back up to boiling. Man i love chickens! 😊

    • @karenculpepper973
      @karenculpepper973 8 месяцев назад +5

      @@cherylburt1315 you do it kill any possible pest. Same with flour. I was taught to do this by my grandmother when I was little and I taught it as well to my kids.
      So when you buy your flour for example pop it in the freezer at least for 4 days before transferring it to your airtight container. Sometimes mine will stay in the freezer until I need it. Make sure you let it warms to room temp before you store it in your container so you don’t trap any moisture.
      I keep my oats in my freezer all the time because oats can go rancid quickly. But we don’t eat as many oats as Becky & her husband do. 😊
      The buckets she uses are air tight containers. You want them with the screw on lid, and of course food safe buckets. Amazon cells them now with that top of lid.
      Hope this answered your question.

I started prepping and freezing good amounts of onions, bell peppers, home shredded cheeses, butter... homemade breakfast burritos!! I learned how to make pie crust and pizza dough from you and took your advice to make double and freeze half. I gardened this year for the first time ever, an amazing project with my dad and we learned so much. You've inspired me and taught me so much.

    I just want to pass a long a tidbit from my mother in law who also watches your channel. She noticed on your pantry you have your Wine bottles standing up. She recommended if they have corks to lay them on their side. It keeps the cork moist, which is key for long term storage. Dried out corks can cause seepage and premature aging.

    Suggestion for three next time you make these-

    Form the cheesesteak 'innards' in the pan, place the cheese on top ( you can use the broiler if you want)
    Then place your still together roll on to of your meat, use a spatula the scoop the meat and flip it over. Voila!
    The heat from the meat should melt your cheese just fine. 💞

      Yes! Also, never toast the roll for a cheesesteak. When I went to college in South Jersey, it was considered an abomination to add green peppers! American cheese or Cheez Whizz was standard, fried onions were optional and you added ketchup if you wanted tang. These days mushrooms, peppers, provolone, whatever. Look up Geno’s vs. Pat’s. 😊

    Becky I would like to suggest you get some dark out drapes for your glass doors. You should not have that much light hitting your canned goods and storage veggies. I have mine in the basement also, unscrewed the light and covered the glass block with cardboard to make it as dark as I could.

    Hey Becky, as a Philadelphian you chose correctly with the provolone cheese. There are two options for cheese on a Philly cheesesteak, provolone or cheese whiz. Most people choose provolone.

    I have found that the onions with thick necks are the ones that need to be used or preserved first as they don't store well. My white ones and red ones need to be first as the yellows store better. I met my goal of an onion a day for this year 😊 So proud of my wire baskets full of beautiful onions!

    I made freeze-dried eggs, and use the powder in all sorts of applications. One thing is using it to make an egg wash! That way, I can only use part of an egg at a time, and not have extra egg left over.

    Onions need a lot of nitrogen to grow big bulbs. Amend the soil with a balanced pre-plant fertilizer and blood meal before planting and then side dress each row with blood meal every 2-3 weeks until the bulbs begin to swell. You need a lot of nitrogen because you need a lot of leaves. Each leaf is 1 layer of the onion.
