I’ve been married to my high school sweetheart since 2003. Together, we have four amazing children, by birth and adoption. When I am not homeschooling my favorite students, I spend my days on our 7-acre property where I try my best to love my family well and experiment with hobby homesteading. My favorite things to do are cultivate my ever-expanding gardens, wrangle chickens, ferment all the things, sourdough bake with einkorn flour, and figure out new ways to use herbal remedies and essential oils. I believe God has tasked us to be good stewards of our spaces in the world, and I guide my children to do the same.

Ok, friends. Let’s talk magnesium. Did you know it’s estimated that 80% of Americans are deficient in magnesium? 80%! Especially when one considers how significant this mineral is because of all the functions it supports inside our bodies, we need to take this seriously. This estimate is actually assumed to be conservative, which probably means...
I set out to make these scrumptious einkorn biscuits this morning and realized I had never blogged them, so today is the day! Everyone devours these babies. They’re so, so tasty and relatively easy to throw together in the morning. I’ve even made them on homeschool co-op mornings when we’re all rushing around like crazies....
