Learning Old Fashioned Ways in a Modern World

A homesteading newsletter by Laura Lawrence

We’ve got a lot today folks!!!

Videos
Over the last few days I’ve uploaded to my YouTube channel some Homemade Goodness that will show you some tricks I use to create delicious food at home.

English Muffins 
Amazing Soup
Chicken Pot Pie

When you check those videos out if you could please post a comment or questions and make sure to like it. It  helps the crazy algorithm show it to other people to. And you know I”m all about people learning to make food at home!

New Recipes
Yay new recipes!! Have shredded zucchini lurking in your freezer? Try making this delicious Chocolate Zucchini Cake.  OR my recipe for Sourdough Blueberry Coffeecake Muffins.
Need a yeasty roll recipe?  I have a Logan’s Roadhouse Copycat Buttery Roll Recipe that’ll fit the bill.

Azure Standard
Have you ordered from Azure Standard before? Then you’ll know why I say I LOVE them.  They offer many bulk items but also package in smaller as well. What I enjoy getting from them is Olive Oil, Vinegar, different flours & grains, Molasses (for my homemade BBQ that’s deelish!)  How they work:
You signup HERE. Pick a drop location that’s closest to you.  Order stuff.  You’ll then get an email with the exact delivery time & day that you’ll arrive at the drop location, grab your stuff from the semi and head home. After the first time it gets much easier!

Makeup & An AMAZING Event
Just last night I participated in Night To Shine -it’s an unforgettable prom night experience, centered on God’s love, for people with special needs. It’s gotta be my favorite night of the year! I happen to run the photography area for our local NTS -our honored guests come and get their photo taken, we get busy printing them out placing them in frames and handing them back to them at the end of the night. THE SMILES people, the SMILES when they pick up those beautiful photos in those frames are absolutely priceless.
The smile on my face is permanent ALL night long! That’s why I need some good healthy makeup to wear so I’ve been switching my stuff over to Toups & Co. They are organic, all natural and works really good. Check them out   HERE. And I highly suggest NEXT year that you sign up for your local NTS event!

Toodles for now friends! Thank you for being here,
Laura

    Laura Lawrence Hi Reader Our holiday weekend was spent doing what holiday weekends apparently look like around here—processing chickens and canning broth.

The zucchini keeps coming, so we’re making creamy zucchini soup, zucchini spaghetti, chocolate zucchini cake, and shredding plenty for the freezer. The tomatoes are finally rolling in too. Some are becoming roasted spaghetti sauce for dinner, while…

  • Cooking is a life skill—not an elective

    Junior Cooking Club Hi Reader As we settle into another homeschool year, I keep thinking about the subjects our children will actually use for the rest of their lives. Cooking is absolutely one of them. The kitchen naturally teaches math, reading, science, planning, responsibility, and problem-solving—but it also teaches something even more important: “I can…
