You seem to make it all come together. Home schooling your children, making delicious food and decorating and maintaining a beautiful cozy home. You are blessed.

Another helpful hint for safety—when lighting candles with those big matches, run some water over the match to make sure it’s out before tossing it in the waste can. ❤

I agree with you about a couple of things. Oh, I'm a new South African subscriber! I don't like meal planning or making lots of meals to stash in the freezer. I do whatever I like each day. And lunch is a big interruption in the middle of the day... I feel like I have no sooner sorted breakfast than I need to get lunch done and then it feels like minutes before I need to start supper!

Oh how I enjoy watching your videos with a cup of coffee. I am Italian but unfortunately never learned about pasta making. I do make a mean tiramisu though. 😃

Oh my goodness-I HAVE to try that beautiful pasta dish, it looks divine🥰

As a stay at home mom of 3, I totally agree about lunch! I always joke with my husband about how the kids don’t want lunch anyway, just snacks. I try to cook enough dinner to have leftovers as often as possible and when that doesn’t work out my go to is chili with beans. We make large batches and can it to have on hand.

The food is so delicious, cooking for yourself helps you relax and balance. Thank you for sharing delicious food with everyone.

I never make lunch. The kids make/grab their own. It's often a mix of protein (jerky, cold cuts) + dairy (Greek yogurt, cheese) + fruit + nuts.

I got a pannei press, and my kids loved it. It was quick to make a few sandwiches and toast them in the pannei press. I always made sure the night before to make a quick pasta salad or potato salad or coleslaw for them to have with it. In the winter time id make soup and grilled cheese on the panini press or hot ham and cheese. My kids loved a cheese board with fruit and nuts and crackers etc. That was one of their favorites!

Helpful hit: spray hairspray on your dried flowers, and they not shed so bad.

[kimhamburger]

Ive never really tried meal planning. But maybe one day.

[aepineda]

Lunch is hard!!! I try to rely on leftovers as often as possible.

My Italian grandma always used semolina flour and would make a big mountain of it. The eggs were broken into a well in the top and then worked thru. She had no pasta machine just her hands and a pastry cutter. We would roll out the dough to make ravioli. I can remember crimping the edges. You look like you did a fine job! All of your food is delicious looking.
