Learning Old Fashioned Ways in a Modern World

with Laura Lawrence

Hi Reader

If you’ve ever followed a baking recipe perfectly — but still ended up with flat muffins, gummy bread, or cracking pie crust — I’ve got some good news:

It’s not your fault.
It’s the why behind the ingredients that makes the real difference.

I just published a new guide on the blog that breaks down baking basics in a way that actually makes sense — no intimidating science jargon, just clear, practical explanations you can use in your next bake.

👉 Read it here:A Practical Guide to Baking Basics & Ingredients

In this guide you’ll learn things like:
🍰 Why salt matters in bread dough
🥛 How milk vs water affects your crumb
🧁 The difference between baking soda and baking powder
📈 How proofing works to create light, fluffy loaves

Understanding ingredients and how they behave is the key to consistent, satisfying results every time you bake — whether it’s yeast breads or sweet treats.

Welcome to my Blog- I’ll share with you what our Homestead looks like and how we raise 80% of our food, all organically, sustainably, naturally and beautifully.

I’m hoping to inspire you that you can do this as well! God has provided our family with all the things, but the big thing He has given us is the drive to get ‘er done! We didn’t start out with all this, we started very slow, replacing one thing at a time, learning one thing at a time.
