    Hi Ruthann, I recently found you on UA-cam and I sincerely love watching you and your family! My grandmother was raised conservative Brethren in Christ (came for Mennonite background). I was raised on a dairy farm in PA and I miss that life so much! One of the things I especially LOVE about your channel is that you and your family LIVE while filming. You don’t edit out the kids when they walk thru or when they’re heading to bed. Please don’t ever change that, it’s part of draw to your content; at least for me! It’s real life and I love that! Thank you so much for inviting us into your home and life, sharing your experiences, thoughts and ideas. It is so very appreciated ❤ Be blessed! God is so Good!

    I was so upset the other day when you mentioned that someone said you were uneducated. The next time you can tell them you have a masters degree in Culinary Arts, Gardening, Canning, Baking and Farming! I admire your principles, lifestyle and home so very much. I believe it is the true way that God designed and wanted us to live. I didnt want to mention that negativity again but i was sitting here watching you and looking at all you do and can do and then I saw your beautiful flowers they are gorgeous and I havent found the right words for the garden. It is immaculate. Your education goes bwyond books and a classroom and I say thats one of the best kind! Thanks fornyour videos and God bless!

    Ruthann, I had a bread baking breakthrough today because of this video. I had to find it in my history and come tell you. I didn’t use this recipe, but I TEMPED MY BREAD and it changed everything. I took it out of the oven at like 195 degrees, a full 20 minutes before I usually take it out, and it. Is. Amazing. Who knew I was overcooking my bread by 20 minutes. It wasn’t burned, but it was very hard.. now I know! I will do this forever! (When I was on Instagram, I followed you, but have since quit and I’m so happy to find you here. And now my family will be too with this soft bread. 😂)

In many ways, I almost envy you for your upbringing and teachings from your mother and grandmother. It took me a while to learn how dough should look or feel when it is right, or to figure out more efficient ways to do things. I have had sourdough starters in the past, but ended up neglecting it and letting it die. I am inspired to make another starter and try again.

I am in my 60’s and have been baking bread off and on over the last 20-30 years ( including my first scattered attempts… LOL), but I’d say that I’ve only gotten pretty consistently good results over the last 6-7 years, and improving a little each time. To my knowledge, Neither my mother or grandmother baked anything with yeast.. cornbread being mostly the bread they made. They were both great cooks, though.
      I am happy that I’ve become consistent with my baking, but sad that it has taken me so late in life to become proficient with baking. I still struggle with handling pie dough.. my pies are good, but often patchy!! LOL
