You can see each year’s top 10 homesteading posts right here in one place!

D’ya ever wonder what it was like to be on a Texas Homestead? I thought it would be fun to share… Here each day offers something new. Some days we’re focused on land maintenance like mowing pastures or repairing fences. Other days we might focus on bees, the garden or the cattle. But this week we had one day in particular that ended up being a very challenging day for us.
The temps that had once cooled nicely had made a wicked resurgence. On this day between the heat & humidity it was supposed to feel like sweltering triple digits. So RancherMan & I decided to work the cattle early in the morning while it’s cooler. That’s when everything went south…

It’s so puzzling to me – visitors often apologize profusely for not being as environmentally sensitive as I try to be. WHY??! My journey may not be the same as your journey – and that’s OK!

We’ve been sharing the most popular homesteading posts of the year for each year I’ve had this little ole blog of mine. Today we’ll be looking at the year 2016. That was the year that many of my most popular posts of all were published. Posts such as making homemade face powder and an easy homemade laundry-scent booster. Recipes such as depression-era chocolate crazy cake using no eggs, milk or butter, and my mix-n-pour tortilla recipe. Even a handy storage solution for my unused canning jars and MORE! C’mon y’all – check it out! And be sure to be watching next week when I finally share the top homesteading posts for this year!

So we’ve already shared the top 10 posts in 2013, my very first year writing this blog. Then last week I shared the top 10 posts from 2014. Shall we keep the fun going? I think we should! Today I’m sharing the top 10 most popular posts from 2015. That’s the year I first shared my light & fluffy sandwich bread recipe. (Oh how I tried for years & FAILED at making fluffy bread!) I also share the important thing to remember when you’re reading your friend’s Facebook posts. And there was a 30-day challenge at a grocery spending freeze (interesting things learned there!) There are some fun recipes and some Homestead Hacks and way MORE! Check it out, y’all!

Last week I shared with you the top 10 most popular posts from 2013. It was the year I started this little ole blog of mine at RancherMan’s insistence. Back then it helped to keep my mind busy while my body healed from breast-cancer surgery. But I loved it and continued on even after my doc gave me the go-ahead to return to ranch work. Now let’s take a look at 2014. That year our top most popular posts included my homemade biscuit recipe, tips on decluttering, the very first ‘Use Whatcha Got’ post and more. Grab a cup of coffee and enjoy this compilation of the top 10 most popular posts from 2014. Be sure to tune in next week when we take a blast-from-the-past journey to 2015!

Yep, the top 10 posts for each year brought right here in one nice neat package for you to enjoy.
