SLMS Podcast Episode 5: Build a From Scratch Pantry

by | May 30, 2021 | Uncategorized

One of the most important self-sufficiency skills to master is cooking from scratch and doing it on a consistent basis. I would not be able to cook from scratch 90% of the time without having a well stocked, from scratch pantry.  In this episode I talk about everything you need and should have in your from scratch pantry to make sure you are set to cook any meal at any time. I am not talking about stockpiling or hoarding, but creating and building a pantry based on kitchen essentials that will save you time, money, and stress.

    SLMS Podcast Episode 4: How to Start Homeschooling with Courtney Nalin

    by | May 30, 2021 | Uncategorized

    In this episode, I am joined by Courtney Nalin,  a homeschooling mom of 2 as well as a certified health coach and licensed paramedic. She is also the host of the podcast, Imperfectly Pollyanna, where she focuses on finding the good in life’s imperfections whether in homeschool, faith, health, or overall life. Having been homeschooling for over seven years, she has experienced struggles, insecurities, worries, as well as navigated several different learning styles and curriculums.

    We take a step away from the garden and talk about a completely different topic, homeschooling.  This topic has become pretty relevant over the last year as many families investigate how to best educate thier kids.  My whole goal of this podcast is to give you options. In my opinion, having options means freedom. No longer do you have to rely only on what the systems offer you. I love finding new ways that I can take care of and provide for my family in different areas of my life. I am looking to homeschooling this in the fall, but just like a lot of people, I don’t know where to start. Join us as we discuss everything you need to know to get started, common misconceptions you need to throw out the window right now, and inspiration for making this an actual reality. Let’s get started.
