It’s working! It’s working! – Evolution of a Homestead
https://evolutionofahomestead.wordpress.com/2014/02/02/its-working-its-working
Evolution of a Homestead. A suburban homesteading diary…. February 2, 2014. February 2, 2014. I’m so incredibly EXCITED! It appears one of my garden experiments is working! I mentioned how I was trying to rejuvenate my dead soil. Since it got to be around 50 degrees and sunny today, I decided to get outside and soak up some much needed Vitamin D. Earlier this week, we had 2 days worth of snow and freezing temps. This made me very happy! I would periodically look out the window and chant “Die larvae!

Let’s Get It Started… – Evolution of a Homestead
https://evolutionofahomestead.wordpress.com/2014/02/24/lets-get-it-started
Evolution of a Homestead. A suburban homesteading diary…. Let’s Get It Started…. February 24, 2014. It was an absolutely BEAUTIFUL day today! Temps in the low 70’s, sunshine and a breeze! What better time than to get some seeds in the ground! Might like it, might not. I can probably find someone to give it to if we don’t like it. (Then again, it might grow, it might not. Lol! It felt so good to be out there with my hands in the dirt soaking up the Vitamin D! This makes me all the more mad about not havin...

When the unexpected happens…Part One – Evolution of a Homestead
https://evolutionofahomestead.wordpress.com/2015/08/10/when-the-unexpected-happens-part-one
Evolution of a Homestead. A suburban homesteading diary…. When the unexpected happens…Part One. August 10, 2015. My intention after the last blog post was to share pictures of our constructed cabin that we’ve managed to almost finish at our off-grid property. However, this past fall, winter and spring, have done anything but go according to plan. So, this blog post serves several purposes. It’s a PSA of sorts for anyone who reads it, and an exercise in therapy for me. Not only did he live, but those R...

Sunday Shout Out – Evolution of a Homestead
https://evolutionofahomestead.wordpress.com/2014/09/21/sunday-shout-out
Evolution of a Homestead. A suburban homesteading diary…. September 21, 2014. September 21, 2014. It seems as though fall is upon us! It’s been perfect weather for getting outside and doing some much needed clean up of the spring/summer garden and preparing for the next growing season. In the spirit of reusing and repurposing, I’ve created a new compost bin! First up is Our Half Acre Homestead. And last is a delightful lady that I just found yesterday. Mel at One Woman and Two Acres. Is quickly becoming ...

Stings and Beans – Evolution of a Homestead
https://evolutionofahomestead.wordpress.com/2014/09/01/stings-and-beans
Evolution of a Homestead. A suburban homesteading diary…. September 1, 2014. September 1, 2014. I awoke this morning, bright and early, to take advantage of my last day off work of this wonderful 3 day weekend. My plan was to finish my garden hoeing and weeding, harvest lima beans and green beans and get some fall crop seeds in the ground before the heat of the day. Everything was going along just ducky until…. I got stung by one of these:. Oh, shudder the thought! Better safe than sorry! I spent the tim...

Do You Know These YouTubers? – Flying Through Water
https://flyingthroughwater.com/2017/01/12/do-you-know-these-youtubers
Do You Know These YouTubers? January 12, 2017. January 12, 2017. I’m not going to try to sugarcoat this. I’m gonna tell it like it is. I am Nikki and I LOVE YouTube. Some people can spend hours shopping…others get caught up in binging Netflix…some can’t escape the pleasures of Pinterest….but me? Well YouTube is my. I’m not going to even try to guess the amount of hours I’ve spent there. One video leading to another to another to….well you get it. How to organize and even what a pissed off frog sounds like.

Let us not forget to breathe… – Evolution of a Homestead

Evolution of a Homestead. A suburban homesteading diary…. Let us not forget to breathe…. January 24, 2014. Came across my Facebook page today, and I thought I would share it. I love coming across things like this. Seems I’m always having to be reminded to be patient, and that progress is progress, no matter how small. I just get so caught up with all the ideas rolling around in my head and my vision for the complete picture, that sometimes I drive everyone crazy! So, that’s one of my “resolut...Planning ...

Ode to the humble Meatloaf – Evolution of a Homestead
https://evolutionofahomestead.wordpress.com/2014/09/07/ode-to-the-humble-meatloaf
Evolution of a Homestead. A suburban homesteading diary…. Ode to the humble Meatloaf. September 7, 2014. September 7, 2014. I hated meatloaf growing up. To this day, I consider it one of those tragic childhood memories that I try to block from my memory bank. The term “meatloaf for dinner” meant that there was about a pound of ground beef left in the fridge, some peppers, and a few sleeves of saltine crackers – all of which were on the backside of freshness. Hope you enjoy it as much as my family does!

Evolution of a Homestead. A suburban homesteading diary…. Let’s Catch Up, Shall We? August 16, 2014. Oh, friends and dearhearts! So much has been happening the last 6 months! My blog isn’t the only thing that has been neglected – my house has too and it’s time for some Fall Cleaning as opposed to Spring Cleaning and it’s a wonder I’ve been able to harvest anything out of my pitiful garden. I’ll just touch on some of the highlights. You guessed it – right across my garden! Tomato sandwiches, sliced tomato...
