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.
I am a board member of The Sparrow Fund and an Empowered to Connect Facilitator. I love to dig in the dirt, cook nourishing food, capture beauty through my camera lens, watch the sunrise on the beach, and spend time with good literature on my porch while sipping on a hot cup of coffee.

They’re a nice deviation from our normal...
This current school season has ushered in so many activities and sports events, I actually cannot believe how busy we’ve been given all of this Covid mess!

I don’t use Onion Soup Mix very much, but I do keep a stash on hand for making my Daddy’s meatloaf. It’s one of my favorite comfort foods. With all of this social distancing and quarantining stuff going on, I was really craving meatloaf and mashed potatoes recently. I needed to make some more Onion...
I love to start every morning with a piping hot cup of Matcha Latte. It’s yummy, nutritious, and easy to prepare. Matcha Tea has gained popularity recently, and for good reason! It’s loaded with so much goodness and is a powerful source of nutrients. Because it’s made by finely grinding up whole green tea leaves...
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....

Have you ever tried freezing these and thawing them when you want to use them? Just curious if this would work or if the texture would be off?
Ashley, no I haven’t – but that’s purely because they don’t stick around long enough for it to be an issue. My guess is they’d do just fine. Please let me know if you try!
