Old Fashioned Ways in a Modern World

a homesteading newsletter by Laura Lawrence

Friends,

Oh friends this year's gardening season has had it's boat load of woe's. How about yours? Between the crazy amount of rain, pests and humidity I've got my work cut out for me. I'm hoping soon I'll have a fairly long video that will go over just about everything, my entire gardening outlook (pessimistic gardening as I'm going to call it), lessons learned, changing of the weather, and how I plan to roll and adapt with it. So that's why I've been quiet in my facebook group, social media and such. It's been rough, I'm out there sweating, staining my hands and knees, burning my calfs, and so on. BUT have no fear- I'm still here! In fact I"m working on some new adventures for the fall that I'll need your help with!!

​

First- I need your favorite recipes sent to me. You can send me a bunch of them, they could be healthy, not healthy, sweets, side dishes you name it, I want to see what your cooking, what your not cooking, what you want to cook, etc!! So hit reply and send me links or screen shots.

Second - what are your kitchen hacks? What are some time savers and ideas that help with food prep, cooking, etc. I would love to feature them on my site, newsletter, and fb group.

So let me hear from you, I'm really here on the other end waiting your responses. :)

Old Fashioned Ways in a Modern World a homesteading newsletter by Laura Lawrence Hi friends! As the pendulum swings from summer to fall I feel torn..... Do you feel the pull between long summer days full of sunshine, exhaustion and fun to the slower cooler days of fall? I know I certainly do! Trying to fit in those summer activities, enjoy the dwindling bright sun, harvesting and preserving all the crops is a tough job both mentally and physically. I'm also looking forward to a routine (well...

Old Fashioned Ways in a Modern World a homesteading newsletter by Laura Lawrence Hi 👋! Summer is waving good bye and the fall weather has set in here in Northern Michigan.
