It’s hard to believe we’re already in the waning days of 2017! And we’ve got a bright new year in front of us, full of possibilities & promise. But I’d like to take a moment & reflect on 2017 first. Today I’m sharing the top 10 homesteading posts of 2017. This list includes a few recipes such as no-knead Boule Bread and our favorite Planned Leftovers Meal – Carnitas Tacos. And it also includes some crafts such as making your own chalkboard labels with things you’ve already got. There are also some posts about interesting social observations that y’all really liked this year. Grab a cup of coffee & c’mon in, y’all!

We’ve all been there. You scrub & scrub your stove but that tiny little stuck-on piece is being stubborn. You scratch at it with your fingernail to dry to dislodge it. But since your hands have been in the water, those fingernails don’t have the same ooomph as when they’re dry.
