    Suggestion- if you fill the bowl with cold water while picking, the lettuce stays turgid. No water, the greens go limp on their way to the kitchen.

    Gee, you both are as cute as your little chicks. Bubba was lovely too. So do include him more on your videos, if possible please. ♥️

    Seeing your darling dog, waiting for his chicks, made me cry. I had a Springer Spaniel who did exactly the same when we had chicks. Even when they were hatched by the broody hens, he would alert us by not leaving their nesting box, telling us that the first babies were here. Sadly he died suddenly. You provoked a very precious, tender memory that I think I had deliberately quashed, because it's still recent. Thank you. xx God bless you and keep you all safe.

      When I was a child we raised pigs. Sometimes we had to bring the runt in & bottle feed it. We had a poodle that would wake mom up when the little pigs squealed & wanted to be fed.

    Don’t forget that you can harvest the root part of the cilantro, the thick white stems right under the surface, the root part is used in a lot of Asian dishes, especially used it paste form where you grind it down or process it into any marinade or curry paste

    My favorite salad for tender lettuces like what you harvested is a Wilted Leaf Lettuce Salad. We fry bacon, boil eggs, add chopped scallions or finely diced onions and make a warm vinaigrette with the bacon fat, vinegar, a little sugar and water. It makes a delicious lunch as it is hearty with the crumbled bacon and eggs in the salad.

    • @essemsween818
      @essemsween818 4 роки тому +4

      Ì do something similar in the Summer but I add Chicken and Tarragon to the Vinaigrette sometimes even a couple of New Potatoes (Especially when the first Jersey Royals appear) . It makes a great lunch or dinner and it's a big hit served as a starter to a dinner party.

    Let some of the cilantro go to seed and you get coriander. You can also dehydrate cilantro. Not as good as fresh. Maybe try infusing olive oil or vinegar (note: never tried these but in my head it makes sense lol).

    • @annswarmfuzzies
      @annswarmfuzzies 4 роки тому +3

      Margaret Thompson I was coming to say that cilantro seed can be saved and ground as coriander 😁 That’s my plan for about half of mine this year.

    • @onewhitestone
      @onewhitestone 4 роки тому +1

      I let mine go to seed and then reseed themselves for a fall crop. I then cover it with cloth and it will keep in the garden all winter. In spring, it will take off and start over again.

    • @pinkythechihuahua3156
      @pinkythechihuahua3156 4 роки тому +1

      Corriander seed is amazing in homemade pickles. Cillantro is one of those plants that doesn't lend its self well other than fresh. I dry some by just lining a shoe box with paper towel and set it in a sunny window to dry. I add it to Mexican rice or add it to salsa if I don't have fresh.

    I talk about your videos so often that my hubby is starting to know who I mean when I say “Kevin” or “Sarah.” 😂 Another great video, thank you so much! This has a great solution to a problem I had with getting a new batch of chicks this year (I have some 20-week roosters ready for freezer camp, and need to buy some pullet chicks to replace them), when it’s still too cold out for chicks less than a month old. We’re trying very hard to keep things small and not grow faster than our budget in our homestead efforts. I’m grateful to have channels like yours to look to for ideas and inspiration!! Keep up the great work!

    I look forward to your videos every other day. I started my homestead about 2 1/2 years ago when a group donated a bunch of meat rabbits to us. Initially I thought, I would just butcher and be done, then found your channel on meat rabbits and thought I would give it a go. We had chickens for eggs and a garden. Since beginning watching your channel, I have added dual purpose barred rock chickens, Quail, rabbits, expanded our garden, began a green house, and elevated garden beds both inside the green house as well as in the garden, and have begun bucket gardening. My husband was initially resistant to meat rabbits, but has since begun to love it in tacos (lunch today), ground as burgers and in meat loaf, as breakfast sausage, in rabbit pot pie (which is dinner tonight) and rabbit and dumplings (dinner last night). We are currently hatching out barred rock in our incubators (we have 2) 1st batch to hatch in 9 days second in 14 days. They are much smaller than the cornish cross when you put in the freezer, however very tasty, and we want to be as self sufficient as possible, though not as cost effective with feed as your route. My daughter just bought a homestead and closed 3/13. You and your family are our role models. Thank you for all you have shared and inspired.

There are hardly any people who do not know someone who has died in the last month. Funerals are forbidden and no buriels. So cute cheepie chicks and yummy greens was a big boost. Be safe and keep smiling, we need it out here. Give bubba a hug.
