My mother, who is a great woman, taught me absolutely nothing about homemaking while I was growing up. I started playing catch up once I got married and I'm really trying to get it together now that I have kids. I learn everything from you! Thank you for all you do. I'm trying a sourdough starter today and just got my first batch of cabbage fermenting the other day.
I did have my children cook and clean growing up. One daughter in particular had no interest whatsoever her older sister cleaned up after her. She was definitely the princess of the family. But now that she is married and has a home of her own. I’m excited to see the changes in her with keeping a home and cooking. 😊
I think something most people don’t understand about your cooking flow and constant work ethic in your home and kitchen is you need to be home to run a home like this. You addressed it once in a video and it made so much sense. You need to be homeschooling, a home based family, not a ton of activities or driving to and from everywhere to serve your family like this 3x a day
We have 4 children. Even with only one activity (sport) per child, we end up having to leave the house almost daily (library, homeschool group play dates, just going to parks for a walk to enjoy more nature). We just eat the simpler food (one pot meals: soups, stews), that I make in big batches twice a week. All we need to do is to warm it up when we get back home. Also, we always have some fresh bread from the bread maker, that my oldest girls make themselves. For the weekends we make fancier meals that everyone is looking forward to. Works perfectly for someone who can't afford to stay around the house. P.S. For breakfast we eat lots of porridge. It is easy to make and is a hot meal, (my children just don't like cold meals like cereal). It can be a different one each day: cream of wheat, buckwheat, rice, oatmeal, quinoa, you name it. Add your favorite topping/fruit, few boiled eggs- nutritious breakfast is ready. This is how our ancestors used to eat. They just couldn't afford to prepare 3 meals from scratch per day. Pardon me for my "composition" here ;-)
I love how I can watch you and think, "She is not doing that the right way." And then it comes out just fine... and when it doesn't you just say, "it'll do." The lesson isn't in the cooking, it's in the attitude. But it really does almost always come out amazing. I am so glad you leave in the times it doesn't, though. You show us how this is a learning process for all of us.
Is it weird of me to say I've cried thinking about what it would be like to have a friend like Lisa? I'm a stay at home mother of 3 kids. My best friend is my mom but otherwise I don't have any friends. I just keep to myself and tend to our home and my family. I've been so inspired by this content that in the last 6 months, I've completely done a 180° from who I was before. Just last night, I made the foccocia recipe from the blog, (farmhouse on boone, of course) and turned it into a deep dish pizza. The thought came 4 hours before the pizza was done and it was phenomenal. Everything I know about sourdough was learned through Lisa's content and blog. My love and appreciation for my little humble home, and caring for it, and just taking care of things even if I'm not in love with specific things, all this mindset came from Lisa. I'm pretty content living my life, but I sometimes truly wish I had a friend like Lisa. I look forward to these videos every week. It's a shame that there aren't people like you living on every corner. You really are an amazing inspiration and an amazing human. Thank you ❤
I only have 1 IRL homemaking friend and I'm so glad to have her but it's certainly a blessing to have an online mentor/"friend" where you can just turn on a video and feel not only inspired but also a sense of comradery. I also fall into the category of those commenting about being raised by a homemaker who didn't exactly pass on their knowledge or training so I love learning from this channel ❤️
Lisa is certainly an inspiration to so many women, both young and older. I will give you a bit of older lady advice, use the skills you have and are learning from Lisa and become that kind of friend to someone. I assure you there are other women near you that would love to have a friend like her as well so go out there and become that.
@TessaThompson-cc9pq I feel this way too, it's easy to feel very isolated as a SAHM, it's hard to make friends as adults. My best friend is my husband, it'd be nice to have a chick friend with the same values and interests as me
Wow! I feel like I just drank from a fire hydrant! There is so much information, I feel like I need to listen to it again at a much slower speed just to comprehend all of it lol😂. You are so good at keeping the kitchen going and constantly cooking for your family. You are an amazing inspiration to me!
As long as I’m home it’s easy to have a flow. As soon as I get tired of cooking and cleaning it goes to pot! But having meat thawed out definitely helps a ton!
I live alone, so needless to say my flow is not like Lisa’s. But I still enjoy watching her videos and I learn something each time that can benefit either my mindset or meal ideas, or home keeping. Because even as a household of one, I still have a home to organize and run. I also make 90% of my meals, and I love to bake for friends and extended family 😊
This is so incredibly motivating! I’ve been slacking in my kitchen lately, but feeling the urge to get back to a good flow like this. LOVE all these simple & nutritious meal ideas! 🙌🏼
I also cook this way and I love it. Mondays are a lighter homeschool day so I can get our household on track after busy weekends. I defrost a ton of meat, prep my veggies from the farmer's market or garden, soak grains for the week and start some sourdough. It doesn't take much time and helps me know what I have. This time of year, I'm grilling more and cooking outside.
Keep in mind there is so much that goes on behind the scenes. Dishes washed, help and thoughtful homemaking and lots of years of experience. Good job 👏

I am so grateful for this visual of a weekly menu! 🙏🏽 I love cooking for my fam, but I lack organizational “big picture” skills, so I tend to feel burned out and discouraged after cooking each dinner. Seeing the flow of all components through the week is so helpful! My main takeaway is to gather ALL protein for the week and never have to panic with a last min thawing. The bulk of the work is Monday, and the rest of the week should take little thought to put together! 👏🏽
I’m so glad you shared this. We are also a very large family (11), and also cook from scratch for all meals. And have done so for many years now. I’ve never meal planned. I tried a few times over the years and it was just not conducive to our lifestyle. Creating a flow in the kitchen has always just been what works best for us. My kitchen days are very similar to yours. I loved watching this! ❤
I can understand how organised you have to be with such a big family. I take my hat of to you. You amaze me, inspire me.. and exhaust me watching! I'm way past your stage in life but you give some great tips.
Good morning 🙏😊 I love you ever calming smooth flow through your home. I’m sure it’s not always calm but you make home making the enjoyable process God intended for us. Love your videos! Have a blessed week 🙏🙏
I know that you do this every week and I just applaud you. I'm so astounded with the work ethic and go get em attitude that you and your sisters have. I just wish that I had some of this... I mean I do but it's the amount of work that you do and it looks to be so seamlessly efficient ....just blows me away. I was not taught all of these things-- 80's latch key kid with a single mom- but she had to work and she did her very best. I honestly think that you are just so intelligent and I appreciate your model for all of us. You ROCK ❤
You are truly inspiring Lisa. I literally got tired just watching you sprint in the kitchen 😂 😅 also your daughters helping out was very adorable as well ❤ just awesome
are you trying a new format? I can't believe no one is talking about how you talked almost non-stop! whew! I loved it for this particular video to show how things can just keep flowing through the day. I also liked how you skipped the intro music, etc. This was good, helpful and a blessing to me trying to get back to not just homemade meals but a flow of probiotics and traditional cooking to heal my family.
Lisa is a wonderful and sharing person. She never says be her she just gives very thoughtful and caring suggestions. Please keep comments kind. You don't have to pay to learn all she shares with us.❤
ive never seen anyone who does meals and kitchen flow like me until you! my friends dont understand how I survive without meal planning but ive never succeeded at it. What works for me is having a starter, bread going, buying in bulk, and thinking outside the box and building out from scratch meals from the pieces ive done in advance (having starter, kefir, etc). Thank you so much for this video, so many great ideas for when Im feeling sluggish in my kitchen!
The #1 thing here - this woman is AVAILABLE to her household. They are her top priority!! If we prioritize the things of this world over our household we simply can't receive the blessings of this life ❤
@@Kenzie_McIntyre He allows us to afford it. He took us through a process of downsizing and minimizing and becoming content with our daily provision. He is now teaching us to steward that daily provision to develop wealth according to His Way. My husband will be working from home soon because of what we're learning and applying daily. Scripture will teach you all of this so just keep clinging to His Word! ☺️💞
I really appreciate you speaking so kindly of a homemaker's worth. Right now I am struggling a bit with accepting the value of this effort as compared to a more traditional job, but I just LOVE tending to my home and my husband celebrates what I do. It's other people that have me thinking that I should be doing something else.
We live one day at a time on groceries but this is essentially how our from scratch cooking looks. It is reassuring to me that the flow is still possible with a large family as we hope to keep growing ours. These videos are always informative and inspiring for me.
Omgosh 😮. Your videos never cease to amaze me! I wish I was more like you. I’ve always had to follow recipes when cooking and I never enjoyed it . And now, in my retirement with my husband, he does 99% of the cooking. My poor grandchildren get cold sandwiches for lunch when I watch them. I hope your kids know what an amazing mom they have!❤
Good morning! I love watching you. I struggle with all the meals! I feel like some days that I never make it out of the kitchen to do anything else. You always give me great ideas
Wow! First time watching your channel. You are my heroine. I have been reading and studying about truly whole, natural kitchen with all the super healthy food like bone broth, homemade yogurt, garden vegetables, farm eggs, etc. etc. What an inspiration.
While the flow of my kitchen isn't this by a long stretch it's definitely gotten better! Thank you Lisa for the inspiration! It helps to see others running their kitchen like this so I can better learn to flow with the food that I have. Just cooking one big meal a day has been a big accomplishment for me. Thank you!
I'm not a meal planner either. But, I have found myself far too often with frozen meat right before I need to be cooking dinner. Your admonition to take a bunch of meat out at the beginning of the week has been very helpful. I have no idea what I'm going to do with it when I take it out but it is thawed and ready to use and I find myself figuring it out as I go.
We are in the middle of trying to sell and I SO MISS this constant excitement and flow of keeping things going in the kitchen! It gets exhausting some days but I truly love it and when showings and inspections are keeping me from it I realize how much I do love it!! This is all so info packed with ideas! Thanks :)
I am in awe!!! You make all of this look so easy. Your family is blessed to have you. Not only to care for them in this way, but to learn such skill from you to carry into their adult lives.
We just had our steer processed, so I, too, have been making stock like mad! I only have 3 deep freezers (lol) so I process my stock down to a demi glace and freezer bag it flat. As I write this, I've got my mixer kneading a batch of white sandwich bread for sausage & pepper sandwiches with onions, mushrooms and cheese for dinner tonight. Now, off to tend the vegetables in the garden. Looks amazing as always, Lisa!! ❤
I love how realistic and last-minute some of this is! Super helpful to be able to watch someone who does this regularly. I’m looking forward in the next few months to becoming a stay-at-home wife and then mother soon after, and I do what I can on my days off, but I can’t wait until this is my everyday!
Lisa you are such an inspiration to me. I’ve only been a mom for 2 years and a majority of my learning has been from you! My mom taught me a lot but nothing about homemaking. She was a single working mother so she did the best she could. I hope you know how much of an inspiration you are to so many of us new moms. ❤ thank you for being so down to earth.
I have a two year old and expecting our second, I am just learning this flow and seeing it start to come together is so rewarding! You are such an inspiration and I hope by the time I get to where you are at in life that this will be exactly how the flow is!!
I love how organised you are Lisa and how you really take time in thinking about preparing your family meals to be healthy and nutritious. I only have 2 kids, so I really commend how much you do for your family. Love your videos 😊
Wow!!! I’m exhausted just watching you. You are truly amazing and such an inspiration to every other mum struggling to find ideas in the kitchen. Thanks for sharing your ideas. ❤❤
Great ideas. Cooking from basic ingredients is also a great way to keep your budget in line. Avoiding premade foods, processed foods, drive through etc all helps the budget. ❤
I’m working on getting into a better flow. I think it’s just learning a skill, mastering it until it becomes second nature. Then as you are able to that without much thought, you focus on a new skill or habit. You bring great motivation and inspiration Lisa. I appreciate how you demonstrate that it’s doable. ❤
You're awesome, Lisa. I enjoy seeing videos that show what working in the home can look like, and ambitious and hard-working people can thrive in the home too!
Everything looked so scrumptious! I miss bread baking. I got out of the habit when I was ill in my first trimester. Now that I am feeling better I need some yummy yummy.
We just bought our dream farmhouse on Bain😂 I just thought, “oh! I have a basement! I can make my own basement market!” Also, from a former vegan and someone who often doesn’t have milk in the house, use some reserved potato water for your mashed potatoes. It will also make them creamy. I’ve also used water in place of milk for biscuits and can’t tell much of a difference!!
Your videos really make me feel capable in the kitchen. I also like to have my ingredients on hand and then go with the flow of each day. I do work full time but your videos really inspire me to start things in the kitchen anyway because it doesn’t seem like a daunting task anymore. Thank you.
I love this style of cooking and the language you're using. I feel like so few videos I watch speak to people who LIVE in their kitchens and know things by touch, smell and feel. Thanks for this!!! Loved it.
I’ve been adopting your kitchen flow for years in our home because it works so well with my personality and our lifestyle. But oh how I wish I would have understood this flow as a new wife 19 years ago! I tried for so long to “meal plan” because it was so trendy, and it was painful for me 😂
I agree, strict meal planning really did not work for me and my personality. I understand it does help some people a great deal...it's all about figuring out what works for your personality.
@@FarmhouseonBoone yes exactly! I felt bad that it wasn’t working for me but it’s just not right for me! I can’t thank you enough for all that you share on your channel!
Being present at home and "just doing something" towards our Home and Family is what you inspire me to do every day Lisa. If I'm present and in motion I get it done. I tell myself to just do it and don't give up.
I love this style of video please do more. I become a SAHM in 2019 and your channel has taught me sooo much and I’m still learning and adding skills as the years (and babies lol) go by. Thank you!
I need to catch some breath after watching this video. You are absolutely a champ! I’m also improvising every day with the flow. Now that i’m older and have more experience in the kitchen I can cook a lot of meals without recipes and that makes the flow more easy, but also makes me cook too many things at the same time to use over the week, so I still get exhausted. Thanks for sharing your busy life with us!
Yes the flow does go similar to this, but I am going to watch this for a third time and actually sit down with a notebook and write it all down... the step by step, daily instructions and recipes too! Thank you, Lisa! ❤
You are such a blessing to so many. Even though I am a vegetarian grandmother, I draw so much inspiration from your work ethic that combines efficiency, creativity and love. Thank you.
This is my favorite video of yours! Well done! I have 9 children. I used to meal plan when I had fewer. Now I do something like this when I want to have it together. I love beans. So one of my kitchen reboot items is to start some beans soaking.
Wow! Lady Lisa you sure know how to cook but also organize your meals ahead of time just in your mind! That’s so awesome I love watching you and your sister Lisa cook! You two ladies have it down pat that for sure Your hubby and your children are so blessed to have you May God bless you and your family
Lisa-Always so appreciative for your encouragement and wisdom. These simple tips have helped me to keep sanity and health in my kitchen. I really appreciate how you underscore the importance of TIME at home. Applying & prioritizing that principle in my homemaking 3-4 days a week maintains calm & order. Also LOVE your braids. Your hair is looking so full, shiny & beautiful. ❤
From scratch cooking and meals has been one of the highlights of my life. My Grandmas, aunts and my mom were all in the kitchen, all the time. I religiously watched cooking shows from pre adolescence…and even tho my mom didn’t allow us in the kitchen with her my aunt did..she taught me a lot. I know cooking is my God given talent. I love love love being in my kitchen and cooking this way. There’s a homemade baked good, snack and meals prepared every day of the week for my family. I’m a SAHM and wife so I clearly have the time but even when I was in the workforce I was able to accomplish it. I believe that is because cooking is my passion and my work skills and ethic taught me things will flow easily when you plan and prepare and from your overall life experience you can pivot for unplanned and unexpected times that will undoubtedly happen. Pivot over panic..always. This was a joy to watch. It felt very familiar 😂❤
Whew 😂 I got the style of this video was to fly through a week but the pace was so fast, I'll be reading the transcript to catch a couple details. I have always appreciated the fact that you are not one of the oh so slow content creators and I enjoy your normal pace which says "I'm a busy mom and I know you are too"! Thank you so much!
I have 5 grown children and although I tried making a weekly menu, periodically, I would always end up just going with what I had available and what I felt like making, or what my kids were asking for. This was the easiest option for me. Thank you for sharing this video, I like the ideas you give. Be blessed
Lisa, you are one in a million ✨ I loved this video. Besides the incredible mom and wife you are, you'd make a fabulous kitchen restaurant manager with this flow. Years and years ago, I managed a kitchen in a large restaurant and I definitely recognize the efficiency in all you do. This video is a blueprint for success to a well-run household. Thank you!
Definitely one of my top favorite videos of yours. I love the real life examples of what you have and what you choose to make with it. I would love more of these!
Long time subscriber and I love all your content. You've been an inspiration to me as a mom and homemaker in some very difficult seasons over the years. This video was very informative but the rapid fire content didn't resonate with me as much as your normal, slower format sharing the same info. I'd happily watch the same content spread out over a longer video to be able to enjoy it and really absorb the info 😊 I missed the calming music and pauses in dialogue. This felt more stressful - which is definitely real life some days! Love everything you share and do ❤️
Lisa, you are running a restaurant! So impressive with all you get done, the whole foods used, and the meals you prepare. I so love watching you cook. You are a wonder.❤
Thank you for sharing this video. I am in my last few years of working till I stay home again. And I look forward to the days that I can spend in my kitchen.
Lisa I love all of your dresses! I want to wear more dresses but I have no idea what styles to search but I know that I like all of yours 😅 I would really appreciate a video on your wardrobe with links. ❤ I appreciate you taking the time and all the hard work you put into making your videos.
I like to find dresses at Thread-Up which is an online used clothing store. I also like get.aspr.app/SHf6r and these from amazon..www.amazon.com/shop/farmhouseonboone/list/3T7894YOTHBS5?ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_s_ofs_mixed_d
Shew I'm exhausted after that video. Lol This year I've really started to focus on using up what I have and making more food from scratch. You've helped me learn a lot. Keep doing what you're doing! Thank you so much
Thank you for showing me an example of your kitchen flow, that's the only way I learn is by seeing. I wasn't shown anything regarding running a home growing up, (and no one was really cooking much)... and so due to a few issues, I've been struggling for years with young kids. Thanks for the visual encouragement!
You really lit me up and have me excited to get back in my kitchen tomorrow (Monday)! It's just me and my husband at home but this is a great inspiration for me all the same. I am going to really pour into these projects this week and enjoy it.
I'm motivated and also exhausted at the same time. My mother was like this but she also had my grandmothers help and her sisters that all pretty much lived in the same vicinity, and they all helped each other out. I now live in the USA (LA) no one lives near me and there's no community here, unless you're into drinking wine and eating cheese at the local restaurant, it breaks my heart. Anywho, Great job!
Lisa, I loved this style video!! My flow is improving with practice but I’m only a few years into this cooking fully from scratch. I love to see your inspiration and the “behind the scenes” of your videos like this!
Like so many others have said, I was never taught anything about homemaking at home or even school where I took both foods and adult living classes. It truly is an art and is so much more than housekeeping and grocery shopping. We actually lived next to a grocery store for most of my childhood, so many times my mom would just run over and grab a few ingredients for dinner which doesn’t exactly work for me since I live 15 minutes from the grocery stores in town.
My mother, who is a great woman, taught me absolutely nothing about homemaking while I was growing up. I started playing catch up once I got married and I'm really trying to get it together now that I have kids. I learn everything from you! Thank you for all you do. I'm trying a sourdough starter today and just got my first batch of cabbage fermenting the other day.
Mums sometimes did not teach us because we ate so lazy and dno not offer help. So this was my case. I have also learnt a lot from Lisa. God bless 😊
Same!

I can understand how organised you have to be with such a big family. I take my hat of to you. You amaze me, inspire me.. and exhaust me watching! I'm way past your stage in life but you give some great tips.
Good morning 🙏😊
I love you ever calming smooth flow through your home. I’m sure it’s not always calm but you make home making the enjoyable process God intended for us.
Love your videos!
Have a blessed week 🙏🙏
I know that you do this every week and I just applaud you. I'm so astounded with the work ethic and go get em attitude that you and your sisters have. I just wish that I had some of this... I mean I do but it's the amount of work that you do and it looks to be so seamlessly efficient ....just blows me away.
I was not taught all of these things-- 80's latch key kid with a single mom- but she had to work and she did her very best.
I honestly think that you are just so intelligent and I appreciate your model for all of us. You ROCK ❤
Thank you so much!
You are truly inspiring Lisa. I literally got tired just watching you sprint in the kitchen 😂 😅 also your daughters helping out was very adorable as well ❤ just awesome
are you trying a new format? I can't believe no one is talking about how you talked almost non-stop! whew! I loved it for this particular video to show how things can just keep flowing through the day. I also liked how you skipped the intro music, etc. This was good, helpful and a blessing to me trying to get back to not just homemade meals but a flow of probiotics and traditional cooking to heal my family.
I followed your beginners sourdough bread, with my starter, also your recipe and it turned our beautifully. I'm so proud 🎉❤
yay!!!
Lisa is a wonderful and sharing person. She never says be her she just gives very thoughtful and caring suggestions. Please keep comments kind. You don't have to pay to learn all she shares with us.❤
ive never seen anyone who does meals and kitchen flow like me until you! my friends dont understand how I survive without meal planning but ive never succeeded at it. What works for me is having a starter, bread going, buying in bulk, and thinking outside the box and building out from scratch meals from the pieces ive done in advance (having starter, kefir, etc). Thank you so much for this video, so many great ideas for when Im feeling sluggish in my kitchen!
yes, I believe you just have to find what works for you and your personality and be ok with it...even if it looks different from everyone else.
Lisa I absolutely LOVE watching you prepare food. You're amazing!
The #1 thing here - this woman is AVAILABLE to her household. They are her top priority!! If we prioritize the things of this world over our household we simply can't receive the blessings of this life ❤
Absolutely you have to physically be HOME to run a household like this
@@KelseyB-u4bAnd wish to be home.
good for those who can afford it ...
@@Kenzie_McIntyre He allows us to afford it. He took us through a process of downsizing and minimizing and becoming content with our daily provision. He is now teaching us to steward that daily provision to develop wealth according to His Way. My husband will be working from home soon because of what we're learning and applying daily. Scripture will teach you all of this so just keep clinging to His Word! ☺️💞
I really appreciate you speaking so kindly of a homemaker's worth. Right now I am struggling a bit with accepting the value of this effort as compared to a more traditional job, but I just LOVE tending to my home and my husband celebrates what I do. It's other people that have me thinking that I should be doing something else.
Wow!! You are a wizard in that kitchen. I was mesmerized watching you!!! You are a blessed creative woman!!!
Thank you so much 😊
We live one day at a time on groceries but this is essentially how our from scratch cooking looks. It is reassuring to me that the flow is still possible with a large family as we hope to keep growing ours. These videos are always informative and inspiring for me.
Omgosh 😮. Your videos never cease to amaze me! I wish I was more like you. I’ve always had to follow recipes when cooking and I never enjoyed it . And now, in my retirement with my husband, he does 99% of the cooking. My poor grandchildren get cold sandwiches for lunch when I watch them. I hope your kids know what an amazing mom they have!❤
You've got your own set of God given gifts and talents ♥️. Make and serve those cold sandwiches with love and no shame ♥️♥️
Love watching you work in the kitchen. Felt like you were talking so fast! It was hard to keep up. I think enjoy the slower paced ones.
It's so easy to slow it down. Just click the setting button and click the playback speed. 😊
As a mom of two littles (soon to be three
Good morning! I love watching you. I struggle with all the meals! I feel like some days that I never make it out of the kitchen to do anything else. You always give me great ideas
You are amazing! From sun up to sun down you are in the kitchen cooking for your family and making sure that their needs are met.
Wow! First time watching your channel. You are my heroine. I have been reading and studying about truly whole, natural kitchen with all the super healthy food like bone broth, homemade yogurt, garden vegetables, farm eggs, etc. etc. What an inspiration.
While the flow of my kitchen isn't this by a long stretch it's definitely gotten better! Thank you Lisa for the inspiration! It helps to see others running their kitchen like this so I can better learn to flow with the food that I have. Just cooking one big meal a day has been a big accomplishment for me. Thank you!
Wonderful that you’re moving forward, and patting yourself on the back in the process!
I'm not a meal planner either. But, I have found myself far too often with frozen meat right before I need to be cooking dinner. Your admonition to take a bunch of meat out at the beginning of the week has been very helpful. I have no idea what I'm going to do with it when I take it out but it is thawed and ready to use and I find myself figuring it out as I go.
We are in the middle of trying to sell and I SO MISS this constant excitement and flow of keeping things going in the kitchen! It gets exhausting some days but I truly love it and when showings and inspections are keeping me from it I realize how much I do love it!! This is all so info packed with ideas! Thanks :)
I am in awe!!! You make all of this look so easy. Your family is blessed to have you. Not only to care for them in this way, but to learn such skill from you to carry into their adult lives.
We just had our steer processed, so I, too, have been making stock like mad! I only have 3 deep freezers (lol) so I process my stock down to a demi glace and freezer bag it flat. As I write this, I've got my mixer kneading a batch of white sandwich bread for sausage & pepper sandwiches with onions, mushrooms and cheese for dinner tonight. Now, off to tend the vegetables in the garden. Looks amazing as always, Lisa!! ❤
I love how realistic and last-minute some of this is! Super helpful to be able to watch someone who does this regularly. I’m looking forward in the next few months to becoming a stay-at-home wife and then mother soon after, and I do what I can on my days off, but I can’t wait until this is my everyday!
You are a "wonder woman"!!!! I'm tired just watching you. What an amazing mom and wife you are.
Lisa you are such an inspiration to me. I’ve only been a mom for 2 years and a majority of my learning has been from you! My mom taught me a lot but nothing about homemaking. She was a single working mother so she did the best she could. I hope you know how much of an inspiration you are to so many of us new moms. ❤ thank you for being so down to earth.
I have a two year old and expecting our second, I am just learning this flow and seeing it start to come together is so rewarding! You are such an inspiration and I hope by the time I get to where you are at in life that this will be exactly how the flow is!!
Girl!!!All I can say is that you are Awesome. I’m an old girl and can’t throw down like this. Keep up the good work.
I love how organised you are Lisa and how you really take time in thinking about preparing your family meals to be healthy and nutritious. I only have 2 kids, so I really commend how much you do for your family. Love your videos 😊
Wow!!! I’m exhausted just watching you. You are truly amazing and such an inspiration to every other mum struggling to find ideas in the kitchen. Thanks for sharing your ideas. ❤❤
Great ideas. Cooking from basic ingredients is also a great way to keep your budget in line. Avoiding premade foods, processed foods, drive through etc all helps the budget. ❤
Helps your health, too, which helps your budget in the long-term 😊
I’m exhausted after watching this vlog! My goodness you are impressive!
I’m working on getting into a better flow. I think it’s just learning a skill, mastering it until it becomes second nature. Then as you are able to that without much thought, you focus on a new skill or habit. You bring great motivation and inspiration Lisa. I appreciate how you demonstrate that it’s doable. ❤
You're awesome, Lisa. I enjoy seeing videos that show what working in the home can look like, and ambitious and hard-working people can thrive in the home too!
Everything looked so scrumptious! I miss bread baking. I got out of the habit when I was ill in my first trimester. Now that I am feeling better I need some yummy yummy.
We just bought our dream farmhouse on Bain😂 I just thought, “oh! I have a basement! I can make my own basement market!”
Also, from a former vegan and someone who often doesn’t have milk in the house, use some reserved potato water for your mashed potatoes. It will also make them creamy. I’ve also used water in place of milk for biscuits and can’t tell much of a difference!!
Your videos really make me feel capable in the kitchen. I also like to have my ingredients on hand and then go with the flow of each day. I do work full time but your videos really inspire me to start things in the kitchen anyway because it doesn’t seem like a daunting task anymore. Thank you.
How I wish the flow in my kitchen was as genius as yours ! But I'm trying and thanks to you im learning! Thanks Lisa.
I love this style of cooking and the language you're using. I feel like so few videos I watch speak to people who LIVE in their kitchens and know things by touch, smell and feel. Thanks for this!!! Loved it.
Glad you enjoy it!
Love this style of video from you!! More more please!!!!
Yay! Thank you!
I’ve been adopting your kitchen flow for years in our home because it works so well with my personality and our lifestyle. But oh how I wish I would have understood this flow as a new wife 19 years ago! I tried for so long to “meal plan” because it was so trendy, and it was painful for me 😂
I agree, strict meal planning really did not work for me and my personality. I understand it does help some people a great deal...it's all about figuring out what works for your personality.
@@FarmhouseonBoone yes exactly! I felt bad that it wasn’t working for me but it’s just not right for me! I can’t thank you enough for all that you share on your channel!
Being present at home and "just doing something" towards our Home and Family is what you inspire me to do every day Lisa. If I'm present and in motion I get it done. I tell myself to just do it and don't give up.
I ASPIRE to this level of homemaking in my kitchen! Wow! 😍😍😍😍
I love this style of video please do more. I become a SAHM in 2019 and your channel has taught me sooo much and I’m still learning and adding skills as the years (and babies lol) go by. Thank you!
I'm so glad!
Cooking in my kitchen makes me happy. I’m glad you find joy in it too. 😊
I really do!
Moms are amazing. We do the most! Lol. This was too much fast talking for me, but it drove the point home of how full your days can look!
I need to catch some breath after watching this video. You are absolutely a champ! I’m also improvising every day with the flow. Now that i’m older and have more experience in the kitchen I can cook a lot of meals without recipes and that makes the flow more easy, but also makes me cook too many things at the same time to use over the week, so I still get exhausted. Thanks for sharing your busy life with us!
Yes the flow does go similar to this, but I am going to watch this for a third time and actually sit down with a notebook and write it all down... the step by step, daily instructions and recipes too! Thank you, Lisa! ❤
You are such a blessing to so many. Even though I am a vegetarian grandmother, I draw so much inspiration from your work ethic that combines efficiency, creativity and love. Thank you.
I love sprinking the Everything Bagel seasoning on my avocado toast. So delicious!
Your food always looks so good. Your family is truly blessed 😊
Goodness! What a week for sure. Lovely life as mom, wife and homemaker. I love this!! 😊
This is my favorite video of yours! Well done! I have 9 children. I used to meal plan when I had fewer. Now I do something like this when I want to have it together. I love beans. So one of my kitchen reboot items is to start some beans soaking.
Wow! Lady Lisa you sure know how to cook but also organize your meals ahead of time just in your mind! That’s so awesome
I love watching you and your sister Lisa cook! You two ladies have it down pat that for sure
Your hubby and your children are so blessed to have you
May God bless you and your family
Lisa-Always so appreciative for your encouragement and wisdom. These simple tips have helped me to keep sanity and health in my kitchen. I really appreciate how you underscore the importance of TIME at home. Applying & prioritizing that principle in my homemaking 3-4 days a week maintains calm & order. Also LOVE your braids. Your hair is looking so full, shiny & beautiful. ❤
From scratch cooking and meals has been one of the highlights of my life. My Grandmas, aunts and my mom were all in the kitchen, all the time. I religiously watched cooking shows from pre adolescence…and even tho my mom didn’t allow us in the kitchen with her my aunt did..she taught me a lot. I know cooking is my God given talent. I love love love being in my kitchen and cooking this way. There’s a homemade baked good, snack and meals prepared every day of the week for my family. I’m a SAHM and wife so I clearly have the time but even when I was in the workforce I was able to accomplish it. I believe that is because cooking is my passion and my work skills and ethic taught me things will flow easily when you plan and prepare and from your overall life experience you can pivot for unplanned and unexpected times that will undoubtedly happen. Pivot over panic..always. This was a joy to watch. It felt very familiar 😂❤
Thank you for sharing! I love to cook also and I am sure that helps us both!
Me and my six year old boy really enjoyed watching this during our morning snuggles this morning😊
I absolutely LOVE this video. I've heard you talk about not meal planning and this is exactly what I wanted to see!
Whew 😂 I got the style of this video was to fly through a week but the pace was so fast, I'll be reading the transcript to catch a couple details. I have always appreciated the fact that you are not one of the oh so slow content creators and I enjoy your normal pace which says "I'm a busy mom and I know you are too"! Thank you so much!
I have 5 grown children and although I tried making a weekly menu, periodically, I would always end up just going with what I had available and what I felt like making, or what my kids were asking for. This was the easiest option for me. Thank you for sharing this video, I like the ideas you give. Be blessed
I love this; we must become more proficient in the kitchen and use what we have. Plus it's a lot of fun. Thank you for sharing!
Lisa, you are one in a million ✨ I loved this video. Besides the incredible mom and wife you are, you'd make a fabulous kitchen restaurant manager with this flow. Years and years ago, I managed a kitchen in a large restaurant and I definitely recognize the efficiency in all you do. This video is a blueprint for success to a well-run household. Thank you!
Definitely one of my top favorite videos of yours. I love the real life examples of what you have and what you choose to make with it. I would love more of these!
Wow, just wow. You show up for your family so well providing nourishing meals and cooking during so much of your day! I'm definitely inspired!
Long time subscriber and I love all your content. You've been an inspiration to me as a mom and homemaker in some very difficult seasons over the years. This video was very informative but the rapid fire content didn't resonate with me as much as your normal, slower format sharing the same info. I'd happily watch the same content spread out over a longer video to be able to enjoy it and really absorb the info 😊 I missed the calming music and pauses in dialogue. This felt more stressful - which is definitely real life some days!
Love everything you share and do ❤️
I absolutely loved this episode it was so interesting seeing you I. The natural flow of things
A step by step video for those of us who need it.. YES!!!! 🙌
Lisa, you are running a restaurant! So impressive with all you get done, the whole foods used, and the meals you prepare. I so love watching you cook. You are a wonder.❤
Love your flow and always keep it simple and easy
I appreciate that!
Wow, that schedule flow was a true work of art. 😊
Amazing Lady !!!
Thank you for all your excellent content ♥️
Patricia
Thank you for sharing this video. I am in my last few years of working till I stay home again. And I look forward to the days that I can spend in my kitchen.
Lisa I love all of your dresses! I want to wear more dresses but I have no idea what styles to search but I know that I like all of yours 😅 I would really appreciate a video on your wardrobe with links. ❤ I appreciate you taking the time and all the hard work you put into making your videos.
Old Navy has a lot of great dresses at decent prices and almost all have pockets.
@@simplecityfarm337 Thank you! I will look there, yay pockets! 😍
I like to find dresses at Thread-Up which is an online used clothing store. I also like get.aspr.app/SHf6r and these from amazon..www.amazon.com/shop/farmhouseonboone/list/3T7894YOTHBS5?ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_s_ofs_mixed_d
You are an amazing woman!! You family is very lucky to have you❤
I love the flow of your kitchen. It's both full of effort and effortless!
Thanks so much! 😊
Shew I'm exhausted after that video. Lol This year I've really started to focus on using up what I have and making more food from scratch. You've helped me learn a lot. Keep doing what you're doing! Thank you so much
Thank you for showing me an example of your kitchen flow, that's the only way I learn is by seeing. I wasn't shown anything regarding running a home growing up, (and no one was really cooking much)... and so due to a few issues, I've been struggling for years with young kids. Thanks for the visual encouragement!
Glad to hear it was an encouragement to you!
You really lit me up and have me excited to get back in my kitchen tomorrow (Monday)! It's just me and my husband at home but this is a great inspiration for me all the same. I am going to really pour into these projects this week and enjoy it.
It is sooo helpful watching you and hearing you explain everything. This would make a great blog post to write it out so we have notes LOL
My favorite type of video. Please do this again when you can. Great inspiration
You are remarkable...God bless you and your family..
I'm motivated and also exhausted at the same time. My mother was like this but she also had my grandmothers help and her sisters that all pretty much lived in the same vicinity, and they all helped each other out. I now live in the USA (LA) no one lives near me and there's no community here, unless you're into drinking wine and eating cheese at the local restaurant, it breaks my heart. Anywho, Great job!
Your channel is so calming. Plus I get ideas for dinner ❤
Lisa, I loved this style video!! My flow is improving with practice but I’m only a few years into this cooking fully from scratch. I love to see your inspiration and the “behind the scenes” of your videos like this!
You are so inspiring. ❤
Like so many others have said, I was never taught anything about homemaking at home or even school where I took both foods and adult living classes. It truly is an art and is so much more than housekeeping and grocery shopping. We actually lived next to a grocery store for most of my childhood, so many times my mom would just run over and grab a few ingredients for dinner which doesn’t exactly work for me since I live 15 minutes from the grocery stores in town.
I agree, it takes some thought and time to get there.
I saw you removing the bones from your salmon. If you crunch them into the salmon you have an excellent source of calcium!
So good Lisa 💛💛
