So I really haven't kept up with things here on the blog since I started a page on facebook but a lot has happened. First, the garden has expanded to 11 raised beds. The three railroad tie beds are approx. 8'x8', then there are 6- 4'x8' beds and a couple smaller beds and the tiered strawberry bed. Some of the beds have frames for covers and some have trellises.
Since I can't really have animals here, the garden, and preserving food have become especially important to me. I thought when I came here I was pretty much done with all that but I just had to find ways to do it here. I now make yogurt every week using my dehydrator as a heat source, it is how I make bread as well.
My cupboards are once again filled with jars but I am trying to stick with canning things we are actually going to use.

I am still sewing and make a lot of my own clothes. I wear skirts every day and am constantly making myself new ones. Shirts are a bit harder but I am learning how to make ones I like.
I am learning to work around what I don't have and with what I do. So hopefully I will be able to get on here more often as I miss the slower pace of the blog over the constant posting Facebook seems to want us to do. Stay tuned, more to come!



Every little bit helps. Especially right now as the world is having a cost of living crisis, not to mention governments are now telling us to prepare
