Lane is so adorable! I appreciate your honesty about your struggles to get things accomplished. Your efforts to take care of your family, animals, housework and cooking for your family takes a lot of time, effort and energy. You still find time to video and share your shopping, cooking and struggles with everyday chores. Thank you! I look forward to each and every video you share. May God Bless you and your family. I also appreciate your Bible reading and your scripture messages on your t-shirts.
Awwww. How sweet! Thank you so much!
I like that your pots and pans are well loved but you don’t apologize. We frugal folk don’t have perfect things, and that’s okay, even good! 😊
That’s a nice compliment. Thank you for saying that ❤️❤️
No salt in candid yams, I cook onions in butter and save drippings for gravy. Mom . every meal look delicious and you give me incentive to clean out my pantry which means no groceries bought here for a while❤❤❤❤❤❤. Great video! Especially the one with Lane❤️
Pinning my mama’s answer. Thanks, Mom! 😘

Add that corn liquid to a large freezer container and keep adding mild vegs to it for "free" veg stock. It will also substitute for the milk in gravy. Sure, gravy will taste different but it isn't bad.
When I make bread in My bread machine I use just dough setting when done I pull it out and use a regular bread pan Like the shape alot better that way.
Good tip! Thanks!!
I do this for rolls, bagels, pizza and bread.
Same here. I don’t like the shape or how hard the crust is when it bakes in the bread machine. But I do love to use it to make the dough.
So do I I kill the yeast everytime if I try to make it myself
If you have an upright freezer, it helps to put like things together. I put all the chicken homemade stock on the top shelf, chicken on the 2nd, beef on the 3rd, pork on the bottom, bags of veg and fruit in the door and the basket holds the wieners, lunchmeat and whatnot.
Great tip!!! My freezer looks like a bomb went off 😂
Baskets help us with each kind of meat. When the container is full, we don't buy more. It helps to keep it so things don't get wasted and falling iut everywhere.
@brg2743 good tip! Thanks!!
I hold back from grocery shopping every 2 months. Go over fridge, freezer and pantry shop at home. Use my fresh vegs asap and cook tuna salad, spicy zucchini n hominy,lentil patties and chili beans etc.....
Lane is talking so much! Such a sweet little voice. Have you ever tried to make sweet potato fries? Cut them a little smaller than you did, sprinkle with oil and throw them in the air fryer. Add salt when they are done. YUM!
Yum!!!!! I’ll try it! Thanks!
I feel you on rice. The Instant Pot is the way to go. Much easier!
I am a rice failure.
@@homemadesimplewithlori You are not! We love your recipe ideas. Rice is hard for everyone -- my grown sons like rice, and they all have rice cookers or use an Instant Pot.
Great price on the bread maker! If you can't get the noise to stop you can always paint it pink and put some ears a nose and a curly tail on it and call it your little piggy bread maker. 🤣😂 You can try to oil it first. How to Apply Oil to the Shaft
If your bread machine isn’t working and it’s making strange noises, it might be time to apply oil to the shaft. The shaft should be oiled every 6 months to keep the bread machine in good working order.
However, if you use your bread machine more than once a week, you might find it better to oil the shaft even more often.
Some of the lubricants I recommend using to oil the shaft are:
3-in-1 oil.
Sewing machine oil.
Here’s how to oil your bread machine’s shaft:
Turn the bread pan over.
Squeeze a couple of drops of oil between the shaft and the retaining ring.
Turn the ring a couple of times.
Squeeze a couple more oil drops between the shaft and the retaining ring.
Return the bread pan to the bread maker and use it normally. Good luck! 💖
This is so helpful! Thank you!!!!
@@homemadesimplewithlori I hope that it fixes it.
Lane is so stinking cute! How sweet is he! Thanks Lori for all you do. ❤
He really is one of the sweetest kids I’ve ever been around. It’s a joy to be his mama ❤️
If you think something is freezer burned, rinsing the ice off sometimes helps because it isn't thawing and soaking up the bad tasting drained liquid.
Try pourable no kneed dough to help save time.
Set your bowl in the sink and then the handmixer will only get the sink messy.
You are so smart! Thanks!!!
My bread machine makes similar noises. I have been using it since the 90s. I appreciate your videos and you are so patient with Lane.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love seeing Lane in your videos. He is adorable
Awww. Thanks ❤️
I grew up eating applesauce the same way minus the butter, and we drizzled our serving with cream or half & half! So good!
Half and half on applesauce?? THAT IS GENUIS AND I’M TRYING IT TONIGHT!
I always had the same issue with my rice. I stopped buying enriched white rice and starting buying Jasmine rice and basmati rice. The flavor is so much better and better for you. Here is how I do it...I put rice in pot, put some water in it. You have enough water and not too much when the tip of your pinky is touching the rice and the first crease of your pinky is covered with water. Cook on high until it starts to boil. Once it's boiling, turn down the heat to low, cover, and set a timer for ten minutes. After ten minutes, turn off the heat, uncover it, and let it cool. Once it's cooled, fluff with fork. I learned this from a chef show that I watched and he changed my rice game haha Hope it helps you too!
Oh, he did say to rinse your rice 3 or 4 times but that's not for me and it still turns out perfect for me everytime :)
Perfect!!!! Thank you!!!
My pleasure! I'm thankful for your videos! They bring me peace and encouragement ❤
@letscookfamilystyle 😍😍😍
I’ve never had warmed up applesauce! Gonna have to give that a try 😊
So yummy!!!
Yay!! I need to be doing this!
❤️❤️❤️
I love your well seasoned cast iron pans. I have a couple that I don’t use often enough but I can’t seem to keep myself from cleaning them! You have the best little sous chef ever!! Thank you for sharing all of your great tips and tricks! Oh, and great find with the bread maker!♥️♥️
Thanks!!!
Yay! This is just what I need.❤
❤️❤️❤️
Love to watch your vids!
I remember I found you when you had less than 12,000 subs!! ❤❤
God is growing the channel!
You’ve always been such an encouragement to me! I really appreciate it. ❤️❤️❤️
You can microwave sweet potatoes to soften & the give them a little color for a min or two in the skillet. Dipping bananas in melted chocolate chips & freezing is also a great way to feel decadent on a pantry challenge too!
Good tip! Thanks!
If you had browned up the onions more and then added in your flour to the fat left in your skillet ( makes a dark brown roux), adds depth of flavor and color to the gravy. If you had a bouillon cube or granulated bouillon you could have added that to the gravy to have given it a little extra beef flavor…or could have added little water to your back pan and brought it to a boil removing essence of beef flavor from it to add to your gravy. Plus a little garlic salt or garlic powder will boost the flavor up too. Mushrooms cooked along with the beef patties will also add a beefy flavor too… especially baby portobellos. Then if you have enough gravy leftover you can use it to make a beef pot pie, shepherds pie or in a beef, mushroom and potato soup or make beef stroganoff out of it by adding in just a few ingredients for another meal.
Oh! Good to know! Thanks!!
You can always make an asparagus soup out of the asparagus or serve it over toast, like chicken a’ la King.
Good ideas! Thanks!
Your son is adorable!! Girl nobody needs to be judging anyone! Everything looked delicious!! I don’t know how you cooked after finding that snake. I’d been keeled over! My grandmother got bit by a chicken snake like that. Hope the bread maker does work. I was looking for 1 but all of the ones I found at thrift store were 25 and 30 bucks.❤❤
I didn’t know how scared I was of them until that day!
You always make me smile, and you motivate me to stick with my plan to keep meals simple! My Momma was such a great example, and I feel like I fall short. I console myself that she lived in a normal suburban home, didn’t work outside the home and didn’t need to
have a hip replacement. My life is a bit different with horses, chickens, geese, dogs, cats, a huge 160+ year old house…but then, I chose this life, so no whining! I bought the Pullman bread pan you featured and I’m not proud to say I have not used it yet - I think it’s time to unearth my bread machine and at least use it for the dough cycle. Thank you for being so down to earth and real! There are some channels that are truly intimidating. Yours feels like a visit with a dear friend.❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You made my heart smile. Let me know how you like the pan!!!
I use brown sugar,Worcestershire, sauce some mustard and ketchup and sometimes a little tomato paste and water in my sloppy joes and a chopped up onion , celery and garlic . We love them . I double or triple it and break it into freezer bags for when I don’t feel like cooking. Freeze them flat so more space and easy to thaw. The bread looks good! Thank you ! 🌸🦋🌸
Your sweet potatoes and gravy look really good, learned something new, thank you.
❤️❤️❤️
Yes your asparagus looks beautiful. If you have some parmesan, sprinkle that on them.
Okay! Thanks!!!
Let’s see what I’ve been eating from the freezer/pantry: orange and ginger chicken, Korean beef and broccoli, bbq chicken, zucchini bread, baked pasta, stir fried rice and veggies and lots of cooked up vegetables from last year’s garden. I also made up some cheese pizzas on left over hot dog buns using some oven roasted tomatoes from last year’s harvest. I’ve also been eating canned fish (salmon, tuna, mackerel and sardines) because I tend to stock up on canned fish. I did splurge this week and buy a fresh salmon fillet which I will be baking tonight.
Yay!!!!! You’ve cleaned out a lot!
@@homemadesimplewithlori but it seems like my freezer just regrows food overnight 😂 it’s a never ending project. Every space I get is filled up with new produce from the garden 😂
Great video... i enjoyed seeing Lane so interactive in the kitchen.
Thank you!!
It helps to mash the banannas first then use the hand mixer.
Oooooohhhhhh! Gotcha! Thanks!
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Nice bread! 😎
Ha! Thanks!! And the bread maker is all better! No more loud noises!!!!
Wonderful video on using what you have. Love your shirt!❤
Thanks!!!!!!!!
I have that same bread maker. I like it but I'm new to making bread. I also want to let you know that it will vibrate off the counter while mixing, so be sure to keep an eye on it. Mine is loud too. mine also came with recipes and one of them did have honey in the recipe.
Oh no! I guess I need to set up a fence 😂
I actually think you used more honey than sugar 😊. Congratulations on the bread!
I’ll take that! Thanks!!
Daily living , no grocery shopping
It may help to brown your flour prior to making the gravy ?
That’s a good thought. I didn’t think of that
Thank you for giving me some tips and advice on cooking i would like to give you a life line of mine if you don't mind.
If you google Eat well for less then you should get some recipes that might give you a few ideas.
thank you again for all that you share and bless us with.
Thanks!!
The noise in the back ground isn't bothersome but the loud sizzling of the pans physically hurts my ears. I pray The LORD will lead you to the right kind of filters and the right savings for you in Jesus Name Amen Love Ruthie
I try to reduce the noise. I’m sorry it’s so loud. I’ll work on that. Thank you for letting me know.
