    I never will understand why people think it’s ok to give others a hard time on their own channels/pages/etc. So incredibly rude and selfish. If I don’t use an item in a recipe, such as corn starch, I search for an alternative. If that isn’t an option, I try to “reconfigure” or “ retrofit” the recipe. 🤷🏻‍♀️
    Love, love, love your rants!😂❤️

    Wish I saw this sooner! My ordering window just closed. I want those berries. It's fine. Not your fault. I hit my budget limit. You have made me giggle before I went to sleep. Which was great because my dog is fearing the T&L storm and my giggling stopped her trembling and started her playing, So watching you is better than me playing the Music for Dog Anxiety videos that I usually play during storms for her. I, myself, much prefer your husbands silly bombing in the video...funny man. Love the "rant done. Not it.s not" part. That is what changed my dog's mood. LOVE your rants! HEY! Get the cheese! I was told by someone in my household to not get the 5 pounds of cheese the first time. AND I got it....fam fave. Will be for your house too. The two that moved out will be so upset that you have such great chesse in the house! You will have to get some for them too! Also, Get Nancy's probiotic sour cream. I always used my homemade yogurt for a sour cream stand in...not now! I use Nancy's probiotic sour cream for sour cream things! YUM that! The order that closed today has a great big honking box of frozen cranberries in it! Last winter I got 25 pounds of cranberries because I didn't know what 25 pounds of cranberries looked like. I made 32 quarts of cranberry juice concentrate. That's not including the amount of juice that overflowed from the draining bowl onto the kitchen table and floor. I was processing 10 pounds of garlic cloves into one ounce frozen pucks for the freezer and feeling good about all the production I was doing and dancing to music and having a blast. then I turned around and saw the mess of red river flowing out of the bowl onto the table and then onto the floor. I yelled a loud prayer to God above. My octogenarian momma came out to the kitchen and helped me clean it up. I was more focused from then on out for the rest of the processing. I will be finding out how much juice 25 pounds of cranberries actually makes with this box. I am hoping to make enough for a full year. God willing. Rant done. Thank you very much. 😃

    I get the Sierra Nevada Raw Cheddar, it's very good. My problem with the 5 lb. block is that it's hard to cut into chunks because it's so big, so now I get 3 ea. 8 oz. blocks. My favorite things are: laundry soap, butter, cheese, non GMO cornstarch, spices, - I'll stop there because there is very little that I don't love from Azure.

    Azure has a truffle jack cheese that is really good. I also love the dried cherries, apple juice infused dried cranberries, and their white chocolate chips. I make scones with the dried cherries and white chocolate chips. The dried cranberries are good in kale salads. I buy their A2 powdered milk to make batches of hot cocoa mix. You are correct on pricing, some things are cheaper to pick up locally but you can’t beat the bulk pricing on rice, sugar, and oats.
