Just a regular night in my kitchen. Cheesy broccoli soup on the stove, the same one I loved as a kid, and King George and his buddies keeping me company on the radio. Some meals are from scratch, and some are just from memory and your momma's heart. This one is both. What was the dinner you loved

Took the long way through the countryside today and let the leaves crunch under my boots the whole way. The air has that cool edge to it now, and everything is turning gold and rust and letting go a little at a time. The garden is done and the evenings come earlier, and these are the walks I wait a

What I see this morning is my favorite view, our homestead waking up this fall. Then there is what the animals see is me in my frumpy farm sweats getting the chores done, It surely is not perfect around here, but standing in the middle of it reminds me of my devotional this morning. "Because of

Welcome to cozy season, the part of the year where I thrive. A sewing project half finished, a book waiting by the chair, coffee in the morning and more coffee by afternoon, a little painting and something warm in the oven. This is my kind of busy. If you need me, I'll be right here. cozy season

The laundry can wait. After all, it's waited this long. Instead, I'm styling this hutch, showcasing my little quilt collection and all the things that make me happy this fall. Tell me I'm not the only one who picks the pretty chore over the real one. And yes, before any of y'all say a damn thing,

This is your sign to go get the mums. And if you do end up killing your mums, this is a safe space I do every year too.😭😅 A few tips I am learning this year: Bottom water! I fill a bucket with water and submerge the whole pot for a bit, then let it drain. Keeps the blooms dry and the roots happy.

Slow living is a real luxury. But it doesn't take a farmhouse and a free morning. Two minutes with your coffee before the house wakes up. Your kids laughing in the back seat. Your favorite song on a beautiful country road. Catch the slow moments inside the busy one. #slowliving #countrymorning

Nothing fancy today. Just me out in the garden doing fall cleanup and talking your ear off while I work. I've been wanting to share more of the everyday stuff around here, not just the pretty finished projects. The real in-between days. Because most of homesteading is honestly just this, showing

The question I get asked every single day: where is your wallpaper from. It is not wallpaper, it is a stamp. I am transforming our manufactured home into a little cottage farmhouse one stamp at a time. The three dollar Hobby Lobby carnation stamp, the other low cost stamps, and all my paint colors

It was where we welcomed our son into this world, where the four of us learned and grew so much living far from family and friends. It was where I grew a real love for her. It w

Summer’s slow goodbye The light gets a little softer this time of year, a little more golden, like it already knows what’s coming next. #slowliving #countryliving #latesummer #cozyseason #michiganhomestead
