Creating a Homegrown and Homemade Life
Most dog treats are the equivalent of junk food. They are full of nasty ingredients just like you’d find on the ingredients list of human junk food. Treat them with some sourdough dog treats instead! They will think it’s a special hand out if they are anything like my pup.
Whipped honey is a creamy delight perfect over a biscuit or on a peanut butter sandwich. It makes it much easier to spread on your morning toast. Revitalize that jar of crystalized honey with a few minutes in the mixer.
Are you looking for a budget friendly gift for the kids on your list this Christmas? Homemade gingerbread playdough makes the perfect gift. It’s perfect for party favors, class gifts, a snowy afternoon at home, or Christmas Eve activity. There is no cooking required and it takes 10 minutes to come together. Perfect for a last minute gift.
Oftentimes the holidays are consumed with stuff. Sales, bargains, and last minute shopping fill our time and thoughts. What if we gave gifts from the homestead? Let’s start giving things that take our time and hearts instead of just our wallets. The gifts will mean so much more and won’t end up in the donation box next week.
Christmas comes with lots of shopping and long to-do lists. Remember to slow down and make memories with your kids this year. Spend a cold afternoon in the kitchen making homemade cinnamon ornaments for the grandparents. Perhaps it could become a family tradition that you can do with your children and grandchildren. Those are the moments that will matter most.
