Low Histamine Recipes to Enjoy. With December updates...

Like every family our there, we have a lot going on! In our case it is homesteading with gardening, tending to the chickens and of course the land. Add in learning about our new home state of Texas, and exploring all that we can when we have open time. As well as time with family, and getting ready for the next celebration, because there will be one!  Here recently I have had to add something else...a Low Histamine eating plan.

Fix Freeze and Feast for, What Did You Read This Month Book Review Linky!

Welcome to the What Did You Read This Month? Book Review Linky, a monthly sharing link-up for books! Personally I couldn't be happier that books are once again, back in fashion!

Since books are for everyone, let's all enjoy them, once again!

Twice Baked Scalloped Potatoes.

Twice Baked Scalloped Potatoes, just might be our new favorite scalloped potato dish. Why?

In My Homestead Kitchen January, looking back on December 2025

December was long and short all at the same time. Long because we had two cold snaps where the temperatures dropped below freezing, and stayed there for three days. And short because at the last minute before Christmas I realized I had not gotten everything I had planned to do, done...as we join Sherry for In My Kitchen!
