Happy 2019

Happy New Year!

These past many months have been very full for me but I have been missing everyone terribly. So mu first goal for the year is to start writing again. So many wonderful changes have happened on the homestead and I look forward to sharing the, in the upcoming weeks.

I am also excited to get back to cooking new recipes. These last almost 20 months I have been shying away from new recipes and concentrating on eating fresh and not wasting. That has been great but sometimes new recipes need to be added or we get into a rut. I tried a new recipe tonight and the push back I got from the kids reminded me that staying with our favorites can also limit us. Granted the recipe wasn't blow your socks off great, it certainly was edible! It was mashed butternut squash with garlic, onions, bacon, brie and spinach. I know it sounds weird but it was ok. The bacon wrapped venison was much better, as was the homemade bread. I digress.

As we begin the fresh new year, I hope to get back into the writing and reading. Happy 2019!
