I love your videos so much! I grew up this way and also raised my 3 kids alone this way. I love how smoothly you go about your routine and i love how you include your daughters in what you are doing, i esp love that you give your little one a simple chore to do! They are both so precious! I also eat a lot esp breakfast because i lead an active and physical lifestyle which requires nourishment!😊
I love butter in oatmeal but also maple syrup or a bit of brown sugar and thick cream! Lol😂
Thank you for sharing with us!❤

"... and get ready for the day." Did you seriously just say that after starting fires, feeding animals, bringing in wood, having breakfast, doing laundry... I'm really enjoy your videos. Everything seems so calm and just moving along doing your thing. And don't worry, you're not alone with butter in your oatmeal. Try it in some homemade stew someday :)

Love butter in oatmeal 😋 ❤ I use allulose or coconut sugar, salt, cinnamon, lots of butter, and sometimes splash of heavy cream

I don't even have the tiniest critique. All I see is thriving that's helping others to thrive. Be encouraged. I know there is love
and gratitude from wherever your viewers are for you and your family.

My English family puts butter in oatmeal. I make mine with a few added pecans and a little chopped apple for sweetness.

You are an amazing mom! Love watching your videos and seeing your new adventure with your lovely family. I love having a wood stove. I do recommend getting a gate/screen around your wood stove with little ones around. ❤

Thank you for wearing our Urku jacket! It’s amazing to see it in action – your support means a lot to us!🎉

Hi there. I am so enjoying your channel. We lived off grid for 13 years in a remote area. Now that we are retired, we are moving back to a remote area in northern BC. We just bought 70 acres. I’m so excited. I know at our age, it’s a big undertaking but we are ready for it, since we have been living this, life since 1996. Thank you for your inspiration. 🌷🇨🇦

Great morning routine ❤! Cozy and warm in your home 🏡 ❤

You appear so relaxed for a busy mum, its no wonder you have such a healthy appetite. You are obviously very pretty but I love the fact that you make an effort with your appearance despite being at home, I've always thought a drop of self love really put you in a positive mindset for the day and keeps every day fresh, despite the routine. Thanks for sharing, enjoy your week.

New to your channel. Age 75, I have 3 fractures in my humerus so I started looking for something to watch on UTube and came across your channel and many others like yours. Mostly Canadian. So far very interesting.

I generally don't like YouTubers adding music to their videos but yours is so appropriate and fit your videos so well. Nice going

From Fort Smith, Arkansas, USA. When, in the past, I had hot oatmeal, I would also add butter. Since I live alone [ retired ], I now have a one pot meals.

[debbiecook]

I recently found and subbed to your channel and have watched nearly everything, so I was glad to see a new video pop up today. I notice others have been finding you too, and it's fun to see your numbers go up. I really enjoy watching as you all adapt to this new-to-you way of life. Best of luck!

[SwtMazsola]

You're doing an amazing job and live in such a nice peaceful environment. You are also very beautiful, so well done for everything! You show an amazing example for all women out there 😉👍

[alyssategge]

Your videos are SO calming, I really love watching them! Great work as always :)

[sundrops]

I will try the banana in oatmeal as sweetener!!
You are not weird for avoiding added sugar when possible - You are intelligent and you care about your children’s development. Good on you!!
And yes!!! Butter in oatmeal!!!! Totally do that. The creaminess is beyond good!!!! And great for my little one!

[Christine]

Yes I always add butter to my oatmeal with maple syrup or brown sugar.

[AnitaWeddle-cq]

Yes I also stir butter in my oatmeal!(along with maple syrup & cream) ❤️

[petrituominen]

Everybody here in Finland adds butter to oatmeal.😀
