Chasing truth, beauty, goodness, and all things naturally wholistic.

Faith over fear.

Ephesians 2:8-10

 

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 herbs 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.

Sunday Morning Einkorn Waffles

I have so many fond memories of my Daddy making waffles for us on Saturday mornings. The aroma wafting through the house was heavenly. I remember watching him add chocolate chips or cinnamon or both! I can still close my eyes and imagine sitting around the table as he worked. I can picture him standing...

Einkorn Tortillas

Our family has been on a more natural, traditional food journey for a little over a year now.  We’ve been making a lot of diet and consumer changes to embrace a healthier lifestyle.  One of the changes that I am now working toward is switching to 100% einkorn flour baking.  It’s a big step.  It’s...

Continuous Brew ‘Booch

It’s been a year since I tried my “Kombucha Experiment” to find out what the hype was all about.  I was a little weirded out at first and thought the whole concept was just so strange.  But a year later, I’m a 100% kombucha convert.  I can’t claim that it, alone, is the miracle drink...

Working with sourdough

UPDATE 2018 – Though my processes are still pretty much the same, I now work exclusively with an einkorn sourdough starter and do not use white flour anymore. You can read more about why einkorn is so much more nutrient dense and the most optimal grain choice for people with insulin resistance HERE. Check out...
