Who would have thought it…new baby at 44 years old 🫣. It took me a long time to wrap my own mind around the idea and here we are… taking adventures and going on with life; as if there was a choice to do anything else. This first half of 2024 has been filled with surprises… many of them not so awesome. We are navigating life without Jeff’s mother in the world, my retirement plan job is ending soon due to closing Labor & Delivery department, and we are rolling with life as parents of kids ranging from age 20- 6 months 😳….its all a blessing somehow..even when I don’t know what that blessing is (for the record- children are ALWAYS a blessing). I’m making time to get outdoors, go on the hike, enjoy our little homestead, and try not to worry or control what I cannot control. On this day in the photo I felt it, finally… the letting go, enjoying the moment, soaking up these kiddos, and just looking out over the lake as a I nurse a tired baby while breathing in the fresh air. It was amazing! Little by little we will find our way, but for now I’m hit with grief at oddest of times, overstimulated to overjoyed, so tired I can’t stay awake yet so thankful to see every moment. I’m all over the map right now and I’m really hoping this second half of 2024 is prepared to deal me a hand of slow and steady while all these pieces fall into place.

Easy dumplings that taste so good!! No need for instant mixes. Make them larger for a plated meal or smaller to add to soups. 1 cup all purpose flour, 2 tsp dried parsley, 1 tsp dried minced onions, 1/2 tsp salt, 1 egg, 1/3-1/2 cup milk. Mix all ingredients except milk, add milk slowly until all ingredients are combined and moist. Drop by 1/2 Tbsp- 2 Tbsp to boiling water, boil 10ish minutes making sure bigger dumplings are turned to n the process. If making for soup I like to add a little bouillon to the water for extra flavor. Enjoy!

Learning basic sourdough recipes is the key to expanding the types of bread you can make. I use a simple sandwich bread recipe and turn it into other flavors or add it n ingredients. I even use it as a cinnamon roll base. Waylon asked for cinnamon swirl bread this morning so that’s what I turned this sandwich bread into. If you want extra soft bread I cut sugar in half and use honey for the other half and half the butter I use olive oil = Soft squishy fresh bread!

Last night was a beautiful night in the bow stand. Lots of deer movement the whole time…nothing of size in range to shoot though. I did some grunting and deer would move toward the sound slowly but did not act too excited. I did follow several new scrapes all the way to my stand. Looks like it will be a great week for action and these 40° temps sure make it easier to sit.

Extending the season. We had some extra greenhouse plastic and cattle panels and the peppers didn’t want to give up….so, we decided to make a quick low tunnel and see how long we can extend the harvest. It’s quite cozy in here!

THIS is my favorite part. The part where I teach someone else how to turn harvest into food. He’s seen it many times, but this time he has the knife in hand taking care to preserve the meat and think about future meals that will be made from HIS hunt. We label the packed with date and the hunter’s name so when we cook it they know it is their actions and dedication that are feeding us for that meal. They get to relive the moment and feel proud of what they have accomplished.
