Time to Restock Your Pantry π«β¨

Hi, Reader, If you're new to living a more self-sufficient life, I highly recommend learning how to make a few pantry staples. It's amazing how powerful it is to know that you can make most of the items in the grocery store. From seasoning blends and extracts to leavening agents and even brown sugar, you can make-do with just a few basics. Plus, they're easy. Most require just 1-3 ingredients, so truly anyone can make them. So, you get a little confidence boost, skip the trip to the store, and control the quality of ingredients all at the same time. That's my kind of thing! I'm sharing some of my favorite pantry staple recipes below to help get you going. P.S. Do you have a recipe you'd like me to add to the blog? Or topics you want me to cover in these emails? I'd love to help! Just send me a reply to let me know. :) DIY Pantry StaplesβHow to Make DIY Baking Powderβ β βHow to Make Brown Sugar from Molassesβ β βHow to Make Whipped Honeyβ β βVanilla Infused Maple Syrupβ β βHow to Make Dill Saltβ β βEasy Homemade Vanilla Bean Pasteβ β βHow to Make Sugar Cubesβ β βHomemade Vanilla Bean Sugar {3 Ways}β β βHazelnut Granola with Maple & Cinnamonβ β βRoasted Pecan Butterβ |

You get layer after layer of strawberry goodness in every bite! It's like strawberry shortcake...in cake form. Get the recipe
Hi, Reader, Do you grow any herbs? I'll be honest - I wasn't that interested in them when I started gardening 11 years ago. I usually focused on basil and cilantro since you need those for pesto and salsa! But over the years, I've added more and more. Parsley, chives, mint, rosemary, oregano, thyme, bee balm, dill, sage, and probably more I'm forgetting. I love watching them grow, I love running my hands through them, and I love preserving them to enjoy all year long! Fortunately, herbs are...
Hi, Reader, Canning season is almost here! Are you ready? π«πΏ And hey, if youβre not a canner (yet), donβt click away!Canning is just one of many ways to preserve food, and I promise, itβs not as complicated as it seems.
