Shalom Y’all!

Shalom Y’all,
Living on a fixed income and the prices of food and gas rising so drastically, we are VERY thankful for the grains, beans and dry goods that we have stored.
This coming month, we have extra household expenses not covered in the budget so the food budget will go to pay those needs. That means, [...]

This is pretty funny!!
Last week or so at the TailGate market someone shoved a video recorder in my face and said “Tell the people about your mill and what you bake.”
OK, so it’s not very flattering, my hair is a mess and I stumble for words and say “UMMM” a lot, but hey, it’s real [...]
