Hello!

Living in central Oklahoma in the spring can be an exciting adventure all on its own. It is called "tornado ally" for a reason.

I want to take you along with me threw some things I've been learning over the years and even new skills I want to try out. I have taught myself to crochet and  my mom taught me to sew. Many jobs in bakeries have given me the skill to bake. Youtube taught me to can my own fruits and vegetables. Last year I started foraging local herbs, fruits, and medicinal plants. The internet is a wonderful place to learn.

I know people used to learn these kinds of skills from there grandparents. For me that is not the case. I have a wonderful grandmother who supports  me in my mission to learn but she seems to be the first generation to miss out on this particular set of life skills.  So I have take to the internet, YouTube, blogs, community groups, correspondence courses, to find out what we have been missing.
