I know there has been a lot of talk about self-sufficiency and I’ve even written about it a bit but can anyone truly be self-sufficient?
Is self-sufficiency possible?

2025-2026 Homeschool Curriculum: Montessori Integration
I know I posted our 2025-2026 Curriculum and plans earlier but I’ve recently gotten a Montessori program for our youngest, Shyanne, who has special needs. She really seems to thrive with this approach and we all really LOVE it. We still love our CHARLOTTE MASON and this seems to fit in well with it.

Everyone’s Favorite Sourdough Cinnamon Rolls
This may not be one of the easiest recipes on my blog but they sure are delicious! My oldest son requests these every time he comes home so we really try to make them happen. They are a favorite ‘go-to’ for special days and we recently had them for breakfast before the latest baby shower. We also had them for breakfast before the wedding last year.
Forgive the cover photo as I used leftover icing to ice these with… I’ll try to get a better photo the next time I make them 🙂

Everyone’s Favorite Sourdough Cinnamon Rolls
This is a multi-step process and need a little preparation but they are so worth all the extra effort! These can make any day a special day and we often have them on the mornings of special holidays or events.
Ingredients:
Dough:
- 5 c. Flour (If using self-rising flour you can omit the next 3 ingredients)
- 2 c. shortening or butter
- 2/3 c. sourdough discard
- 1 1/2 – 2 c. Buttermilk (you can use regular milk and add 1 T. Vinegar)
- 1 ½ t. salt
- 2 T. honey (optional)
You can wait and add these right before baking but I usually add them while I make everything else… adding it later will help them to be extra fluffy!

Making Memories: A Simple Winnie the Pooh Themed Baby Shower with Recipe Links and Printable Games
Whew… what a crazy month July was. We were rushing to get our house remodeled. It seems we always have some big project before a big event. Everything turned out great though and we were blessed to have so many family and friends come to help us celebrate the new arrival… he should be here ANY DAY NOW!
It’s starting to feel like home….
This past week, we got the house back in order and got all of the decorations packed away until the next event… we did make a rule that baby showers/weddings need to happen before May 31st or after September 1st… it’s just too darn HOT here! Our poor ACs can’t keep up with the heat, especially when the doors are constantly opening/shutting, but we survived so it’s all OK. What isn’t Ok is last month’s electric bill!!! That was crazy and the company keeps going up and adding charges on top of regular charges… it is just completely ridiculous!
