About Me

I’m Sarah. A wife, and a stay-at-home mother of 9. Here I’m going to be sharing about motherhood, faith, all things food, and so much more. I hope this website is an encouragement to you. Grab a hot coffee (while I drink mine cold) and enjoy!

    Budget Friendly Homemade Pancakes

    Ya'll these pancakes are so fluffy! Now I am going to let you in a secret. I tend to change up recipes for a few reasons. First, I don't like to shop for items I won't use. Second, I try to use what I have on hand. Third, I need to keep on our budget. That is a biggie, to be able to stay on budget- I have to change recipes up to fit our budget. All the while still keeping them tasty.

    Homemade Pickling Spice

    Spices are expensive. I am always looking for ways to save money, specially when I am going to be using a good bit of it. I found myself going through pickling spice. I use it for my pickles, and pickled eggs and sausage. So I wanted to start making my own. Hope it helps you to save some money. Remember you can adjust for your taste.

    Canning Sausage Patties

    We have very limited space in our freezers. Since freezers seem to be a hot commodity right now, we have to make due with what we have. Which is fine with us. We had a cow and pig go into a freezer all within a month of each other. I needed to free up space so I started to can the meat. These sausage patties are great to have on hand.
