I get many questions from young homemakers who are looking for practical tips or are in need of encouragement for the season they are in. I love offering my perspective as a homemaker of over 17 years. I have walked through many seasons of motherhood; I have made mistakes and celebrated victories. And I am still continuing to learn and adapt as my children grow and my circumstances change. If we were to sit down to coffee together, I would answer your questions in the exact way I’m answering them today on the podcast, so join me for another cozy Q&A coffee chat in this episode!
In this episode, we cover:
Some tips for baking with whole wheat flour if your loaves are too dense
Have I stopped baking sourdough now that I’ve switched to freshly-milled grains?
How our kids have felt about our recent move from our farm into town
What I use to clean my home instead of making my own cleaner
What parts of our upcoming build I will be sharing and why
A recent switch I’ve made in my sourdough process– I don’t know why it took me so long to realize this!
