People may not understand, but I so agree with you that sometimes the most relaxing thing I can do is just work uninterrupted in my kitchen. I LIKE being a mom. I like my work. Even dishes can be a relaxing thing to do if that's all you have to do in that moment. If my husband takes the kids out to give me a break, most of the time I'll end up cleaning while he's gone. It's not that I can't relax, it's that cleaning itself can be so relaxing. I love what you said about self-care potentially looking different for different people.
I think saying you like being a mom doesn’t sound as though someone enjoys it. Yours should LOVE being a mom. Yes you should have other interests and take care of yourself but like and love are different things. Just my opinion.
@@nancyfarkas3592 Out of everything she said, you focused in on one word. I think she used the word "like" because unfortunately there are too many people who see mothering as not fulfilling, or just another chore to check off the list...she is saying she truly LIKES all aspects of it. I don't know, just my opinion...differing views make the world go around, right? 😉 Enjoy the rest of your Sunday.
❤❤❤❤ I agree with all of this! I was a SAHM for the first 12 years and circumstances placed me back into my previous healthcare job and I have been doing this for the past 29 years. Fortunately, my job gives me 3 days off per week, so those days off is cleaning and cooking- I love homemaking, it’s relaxing AND fulfilling for me. Is my house spotless, nope, but it’s clean and welcoming and if something isn’t in the oven baking on my days off, then there is a diffuser bubbling somewhere and I am probably doing laundry or out in the flower garden (during the warm months).
It's amazing how different we all are. I HATE cleaning. Love things to BE clean but it's not remotely enjoyable or relaxing to me. Cooking I can do all day - if someone else cleans lol. If I have alone time I'm playing Mah Jongg, reading or watching movies/videos. Dishes are the worst. Laundry - no problem. Vacuuming and dusting? Bring it on. But if I never had to touch another dish, refrigerator, stove or bathroom my whole life, I'd be fine!
I do not have a dishwasher, except me, that's when I meditate and talk to Our Lord, and pray for those who are needing prayers. There are 5 of us right now at home, and these fellas like to eat! We have a garden, but it isn't that prolific-yet. We're doing better each year, thanks be to God, and I had enough tomatoes to freeze several quarts of sauces, and they have been a blessing! We had fresh peas, spinach, and some radishes, lettuce and green peppers. Would have had more, but we had a dry spring and summer and didn't water as we should have. You are such an inspiration, thank you for showing us how it's done, thank you for your encouragement! Such a beautiful family. God bless you each.
Just got home from work, made a cup of coffee and a freshly baked cookie and theres a New post... terning into a nice sunday with Rain outside..
Sipping coffee and puttering in the kitchen is my version of relaxing. I love it.
I really appreciate your informative, smooth videos. I get excited to see them every Sundays you post (and totally get it when you can’t). I was especially impressed by your editing this week. It must have taken a while to go back and worth so much. I remember, you often do that, I was just extra appreciative today. This might be the first time I’ve commented but I’ve been loving you channel a couple of years.
Thank you for the kindness and encouragement ❤️
I love this. I'm the same. I dice up as much onions as I need or prep whatever food I need so when I'm cooking it's already done and week day dinners are less stressful & I have more time with my boys. Half an hour on the weekend leads to a calmer week.
That tiny man fell asleep between father and big brother, how sweet:)))
The best sound is a child laughing
Not if you live alone.
@@alexiahatch9708😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@alexiahatch9708just because you live alone doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy that sound. You don’t have to have kids to enjoy the sounds of kids being joyful.
I love the pace you work at in the kitchen. Staying organized and being prepared sure makes life easier . The amount of dishes waiting in your sink for washing shows how much you accomplish . I find so many routines in your videos that I have incorporated into my life. The children are so beautiful, Jessica, and all growing up. Thank you for sharing. Have a blessed week..
Tuesday AM: I love your videos. They are very relaxing to me AND I am blessed by the various methods you use in prepping. I am continually learning easier ways to do things like baking bacon in a Pyrex rather than on a cookie sheet. God uses you to make my kitchen experiences smarter. I’m 79 years old and still learning .
Thanks.❤
Good Sunday morning. Its been an interesting week. I am about two weeks away from my disability hearing. I have been fighting for this for now two years. I am praying that this will bill my final step to get it. Please send prayers my way. Thx. Love them videos 💜. Its so fun to watch you guys and see how fast the kids grow up. We as moms have different ways to relax. It still looks like you are having beautiful weather. Enjoy! God bless and stay safe out there 🙏🏻💜.
God bless you 🙏
Prayers for you. My daughter has been going through with the disability hearings for two years. She is waiting for the answer too. Prays for your meeting to be positive.
Best of luck to you. I was extremely lucky. I applied, had physical and was approved in 6 weeks. I was told it was because I worked so long before applying and disability was very obvious. I understand for many it’s a battle.
prayers as well. I'm in Oklahoma City and I'm going through my second filing now as I've been going through this almost 4 years. I keep having pancreas surgery and I don't have a spleen or gallbladder. Need all prayers please🙏🏽
@@makeishiagrant5602 prayers for you. Hope things work out for you. God bless 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I love being a Mum & I love caring for my family. I am sick and tired of having to defend this to my friends who think I am overextending myself. When and why did it become so unusual to love caring for your family? I don't like going out to drink alcohol and gossip. I like being in my home, either cleaning, sewing or cooking. I waited a very long time to have my daughter (over 15 IVF treatments) and I relish spending my time on looking after her and my husband.
When I was young with children at home, I did the same. Now, at 76, I can't imagine doing what you're doing or what I did. However, of all the UA-cam videos I watch I love yours most. Thanks so much!
My absolute favorite thing is to see my kids play and be kids while I work in the house.
Hi Jessica👋👋👋 Many blessings to you and yours🙏 I love watching you cook and prep for your family, your ability to adapt recipes to be dairy free intrigues me very much, it’s great your family doesn’t miss out on anything bc of your ability to do so and I appreciate that👍 I always get great tips and tricks from watching you, which is always wonderful. You prepped so many yummy items this day, I’m tired out from watching☺️ TYFS, I hope you all have a blessed week my friend, Happy Sunday Funday, enjoy!♥️💫✨👼🏻✨💫♥️
Cooking alone IS self care in my opinion. 😂 It looks like you had a wonderful and productive time.
Gosh. It seems we were just recently enjoying the PLANTING of your fine garden. 😮
Thanks for your videos. You and other channels like yours has encouraged me to splurge and purchase a canner this year. I have already put up a crate of tomatoes, a 25 pound bag of carrots, 20 pound box plums and as well canned some dry beans which all these items were gifted to me from our local food pantry. Which may have spoiled if I hadn’t bought the canner. Thanks again for sharing your family life with us
Thank you for showing motherhood in such a beautiful way. Those of us treating mothering and running a household as a job apriciate you .
I have 8 children with three in heaven. You bring good memories to my heart. I too enjoyed listening to my children laughing and playing.. God is so soooooo good.
Blessings yall
🤲🏾
Your kitchen looks lovely. Glad you were able to create your basement pantry. You are so right…do what creates joy and brings you joy. I too, enjoy working in the kitchen or working on a quilt instead of just “vegging”. These moments enrich us so we can bring joy to others. God bless all of your beautiful family.
hey sista your future self will thank you for the effort you put in today and your family will benefit from your meals xx
I think of this all the time! “this is for future me… this is for future me…”😂
I understand the feeling of having the sound of your children playing in the background and enjoying a game on tv, soothing and heart warming. Thank you for sharing your life with us. I always enjoy your cooking videos. ❤
Love your content! Here's a little tip to make your muffins stretch even more... add an oatmeal crumble topping for all fruit muffins and you'll stretch them out by about 4 per dozen. I was a single mom for 10 years so I know how to make meals stretch!
This was so fun. You are the best mom. I do understand the mom heart. When we serve our family it makes our heart happy. Serving our family is serving God also. Happy heart!
Ty Jessica.
Sometimes cooking/baking and being in the kitchen is a form of 'self-care'.
Hi Jessica!!!! So verybthrilled to see your video pop up this Sunday Morning!!! Sending nothing but good vibes, prayers, and smiles to you and yours!!!!
Happy Home Church Day 🎉🎉🎉🎉 your Michigan Fan and Friend Araminta ❤❤❤
I’m planning on adding ancho chilies to my garden seed list. Love the idea of mixing sour cream and enchilada sauce!!
I was so excited when I realized it was Sunday! Love starting my week with you and your beautiful family! Thank you for calmness in this crazy world! I want to be you when I grow up! Have a blessed day and week! Thank you!❤😊
I also do a dump pot crock pot spaghetti sauce, I add everything from carrots to spinach. And I blend it up , add beef and taco seasoning and my family even the picky eaters eat it like it’s going out of style! 🤣
Love your videos. In USA you use pumpkim for sweet recipes as pancakes and muffins. That's not common here, we use it in mainly in soups, beans, lentils, sopaipillas😅❤
I agree with you, there’s nothing better than no distractions while working in the kitchen! It’s exactly how I use my “me” time. You amaze me with your organization, meal planning and all the other things you do, your very inspiring, thanks for sharing your blessed life. ❤ from Tennessee
Oh, baby Hannah is growing so fast. She's a little beauty.
Your children are very blessed to have such a dedicated mum. I was a housewife and mother when my children were growing up. I did my best to make sure they were fed well, but I didn't do half the things that you achieve at the weekend.
Love being the fly on the wall as my family lives their best life. I have always loved watching hubs play, read and wrestle with the boys. Such a blessing.
Hi my friend! I love being productive in the kitchen.
In the summer, put a fan and blow it on the side of the freeze dryer. We have the same problem. The batches take a long time to finish. But once we put a fan blowing on the side, and we also put a fan on the pump, it finishes WAY faster.
I really enjoy your videos. You gave me some good ideas today. I like the sink sieve to use as a strainer for jars, and freezing your lemon juice. I'm 72 yrs old and pray I can have more time to live to be able to do a lot of these ideas. You are an inspiration. I canned some beans, green beans with my pressure cooker earlier this year. It was my first time pressure cooking. ♥️
Never too old to learn. Good for you; you go girl.
@deborahlawing2728 thank you. You're so kind. ❤️
My favorite thing that keeps me coming back to your channel is your diction. I love that you say “I get to do this” or that! That is how it should be! You are a positive light, thank you for sharing.
Self care is getting to do what you need to do anyway in peace ( which makes it quicker! Plus it makes your days easier !
Hello wishing everybody a wonderfull Sunday, if its morning or afternoon or whatever time for you. Greetings from Berlin, Germany 🌻
Such a busy mama but such a blessing with your beautiful family
Cool idea about the strainer for the broth.
Yeah! I am early ❤
Thank you for sharing 🥰
Love and blessings from Johanne, Norway 🇳🇴
👍 WHAT A GREAT, VERY HELPFUL VIDEO! Watched it twice and took notes. Thank you.
Always look forward to your videos, hope you and yours have a blessed day!
Glad he's allowed to have some 😅😅😅
I enjoy cooking and canning food. Although my children are adults, I remember those days well. I'm about to make and can meatballs in beef broth. Of course the National Center for Home Food Preservation doesn't recommend putting binding agents like bread crumbs in meatballs you can, you can make it with dried herbs and should work to help bind it together I make the meatballs til there's a kind of bark on the outside of the meatballs so once it's in the jars with broth, they stay together.
As always, You make my sunday morning! I get so many ideas from you!!
I'm so glad!
thank you for calling attention to the fact that there are various forms of self-care and sometimes it is better self-care to tend to the future self. So true! 💜💯
Always a time saver to plan ahead makes for a week of free time to spend with children or quiet time with hubby ❤
It was great to hear you give a true definition of self care. Thank you
Absolutely!
Amazing mother and wife ❤ God created you ! God bless
I love seeing your meal prep videos. Gives me such good ideas. Thank you for sharing.
Tiniest and cutest cutting board I’ve ever seen! ❤❤
The wisdom of your explanation regarding self care & the unique ways it may present was very much appreciated by this 60 plus lady here in MO! Excellent reminder to always think outside the box!❤
I see you every Sunday and usually when I'm doing breakfast I see it I really enjoy it and I look forward every Sunday procedure video
I love watching you in the kitchen. You make it look easy! Your kids are beautiful and Hanna is so sweet. Thank you for all the work you do to bring these videos to us and I hope your week runs smoothly! 💜
You are such an inspiration to me. Just when I think I just need to sit down for a bit, I think of you and get moving again!
You gave me some motivation today. I’ve been sick and down all week. Today I’m feeling pretty good and now I’m ready to get in the kitchen and try to get ahead! Have a blessed week!
Thank You Jessica. You have found the key to a busy life, being organized.
If you have a turkey roaster, it’s the best thing to make broth in! You can make a ton all at once. And I set it outside to cook if it’s hot in the house
They are so handy. I use mine for big batches, too.
Love the meal prep ideas. God bless!
Even though your crazy busy, I love watching your channel. It's a break/relaxing to me!
Thank you 😊
Wow, what an amazing day and a great feeling to have all that done and ready to go. I finally picked up a sink strainer (actually 2 for $1.25 at the dollar store). What a handy tool, great suggestion.
I thoroughly enjoy having breakfast on Sunday morning as I watch your upload and beautiful family.😊
Everything looks so good!! You are so awesome!! Thank you for sharing with us your beautiful family and your power-packed day. God's blessing over you all.
I love the sink strainer idea, I will use that in my canning equipment. I will also try making gelatin using the beef gelatin and juice, thanks for the ideas.
Loved this!!!
You still have those strong dancers legs! Such a beautiful person you are. I find your videos very inspiring and informative. Thanks
Jessica, I love your videos. I always learn something new and I appreciate your recipes.
I absolutely love your family you are so blessed to have such a Godly family. All of the children are amazing, I love to watch them working because they are always happy to be doing whatever it is that they are doing whether it's chores, studies, trying new things, and they are all self motivated too. I am 60 now and all my children are grown and 7 of the grandchildren are older now too but if I were young again I would want to have a large family too. God bless you and your family. Thank you for sharing your lives and your vast knowledge of things.
Much Love from Okc 💓 I did a pint of pickled onions for the first time and I'm loving them. I will be doing more. My peach and blueberry vinegar is still going strong. Cooking is my main passion with Alot of fun hobbies I've learned from you🙌🏾 But With all my surgeries and living in the hospital majority of the times i do have other hobbies like adult coloring books, i do crafts with my cricut machine and i do Bible journaling. I truly believe in finding your own joy and things that make you Happy💃🏽As always Everyone Have a Blessed Week and please keep me in prayers as I'm healing from pancreas surgery but they are already trying to set another surgery date🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽❤️
God bless you 🙏
Wishing you a speedy recovery from this past surgery and any future health issues.
God Bless You. 🙏
Thanks To You Both❤ Many Blessings and Prayers For us All🙏🏽. Now I'm skipping to new video to get my New Sunday Jessica's Video.🎉
Love your ideas on meal planning. It does save time when you get a step ahead. Thank you for sharing.
Jessica, You're absolutely amazing! What a wonderful mother you are. I just love your precious family and videos. Wish I was young again and able to have had your knowledge. May God continue to bless you.
Sunday Blessings! 💙
Your garden is done, ours is on the second time round for this yr. Almost November and we are still in the mid 80s yikes. To hot for my liking, lol.

Totally amazing
So good to see you! I look forward to your videos every week!
Fry those green tomatoes! So good!
I am doing my prep work as I watch you. My menu is made up for the week, along with daughter's lunch menu. Cookies are made, we will make and freeze the dough balls for later baking. Pumpkin will be going into the oven (thank you for showing me how to do that). You are an inspiration and watching you gives me so many ideas. new one here the lemon aid for vitamin C. Time to get busy again. May God continue to bless you and your family.
What a wonderful video! I appreciate you so much for sharing the knowledge & experience. Thank you 🙏
Thank you so much for typing out the recipe in the video notes! They look amazing and simple.
I sat here with my notebook jotting down the muffin recipes:) thank you!!
Thank you so much for sharing
Blessings to you and your fun and loving family ❤
You should watch “Homesteading with the Zimmermans” She does her pumpkins so much easier. I believe you would think so. 😊♥️
RuthAnn and I are good friends
Loved this video so much!!!!! More like this please!!
Thank you for sharing your journey with us. Blessings
I miss the years of joyful family sounds. Now it is just my husband, an adult son and myself at home. Meal making has changed a lot. Today I have a pork roast cooking for supper. I will have plenty of leftover pork to use in different dishes most of the week.
Love this video!
Thank you! Amazing!
I always enjoy your Sunday videos. Thanks for sharing your time with us!
Thank you! I find prep days so rewarding personally. Blesses my heart to prepare for my husband and me. Thanks again. There is always something I can glean for just 2.
Nice to see im not the only one with BUCKETS of ingredients in my kitchen! 😂 Love the easy meal prep. God bless..❤
Omigosh, you're a genius! I'm running out today for a sink strainer to put with my canning tools!
Aw. Love this so much ❤
I'm excited to see a new video. I do the same as you for prep. Makes life so much easier.
