http://proudtobecountry.blogspot.com/2013/01/new-adventuresjoin-me.html
January 19, 2013. New Adventures.Join me. However I'm finished here. I started with the title 'Proud to be Country'. I named it that because when I first told my friend I was moving here, she made fun of me and called me a 'hick and a redneck'. I thought no. I'm happy about living in the country.so there. Hence Proud to be Country. So there you have it. The end of this adventure, and the beginning of another. I've created a new blog. When it is up and running I will post the link HERE. ON THE HOME FRONT.

http://proudtobecountry.blogspot.com/2012/11/our-jesse-tree-journey.html
November 25, 2012. Our Jesse Tree Journey. The Christmas season is once again upon us. I have most of my presents purchased if not thought out, and the lights are lit up. It is so easy to get caught up in the Christmas craziness. We all know that, so I won't bother talking about what Christmas is NOT about. Instead I wanted to share what we do to help prepare our hearts for one of the most magical days of the year. This year we picked our perfect stump, and some branches full of thorns to represent our s...

PROUD TO BE COUNTRY: I made soap!
http://proudtobecountry.blogspot.com/2012/11/i-made-soap.html
November 28, 2012. Look I made soap! OK so it is the most basic soap you can possibly make, and it doesn't look pretty by any means. But it is soap! All I have to say about making stuff from scratch is that it is super easy. No wonder business' make a killing selling us stuff we could really make ourselves. As for this learning how to make stuff so we can be self sufficient stuff. We still have to buy our basic supplies from SOMEWHERE! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I'm also Proud to be A Fit Mom!

http://proudtobecountry.blogspot.com/2012/12/elm-valley-farm-natural-product-line.html
December 21, 2012. Elm Valley Farm Natural Product Line. December has been filled with lots of learning and home made goodness. Apart from learning how to render beeswax and lard, I've been learning how to do all sorts of natural products. And NO I am NOT a crafty person so this is such a fun learning curve. This stems from my love of all things Natural, Luxurious and CHEAP :) If I can learn to make my own products and sell the extras all the better! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). ON THE HOME FRONT.

PROUD TO BE COUNTRY: Rendering Bees Wax
http://proudtobecountry.blogspot.com/2012/11/rendering-bees-wax.html
November 22, 2012. So this is what the cappings look like. You need to melt is very slowly and never leave it alone. Bees wax is highly flammable. Like I said, along with the wax there is a bunch of other stuff, so we need to separate it. All the wax will float to the top. At the bottom you will have honey, water, and sludge. The wax on top will begin to harden and turn yellow. From there you just pop it off! Once the wax hardens, you simply life it out of the container. We are not finished yet thoug...

PROUD TO BE COUNTRY: Peek into Our Day
http://proudtobecountry.blogspot.com/2012/11/peek-into-our-day.html
November 23, 2012. Peek into Our Day. On top of all the farming stuff we are learning to do, the kids still have 'school work' to do. As a substitute for math today we played a board game that involved money and counting. They get bored doing math problems on their own all the time, so it was a fun way for them to learn and have my full attention at the same time. It is a gorgeous fall day today, so we are going outside for a while. I hope you are able to enjoy some of the day as well. Peek into our day.
