    My problem is not that I can't do a lot of the cooking. I really like that!
    My problem is often that I'm stressed out and overwhelmed by life.

    My husband has a chronic illness and when he has one of his bad phases, gets close to dying etc. I need so much energy to just keep going for my family, to just keep life running, that my cooking really suffers.
    Even though I like cooking, and fermenting and baking bread, there's nothing left in me to do it.
    Then I regress to buy more convenience food. And the home is a mess. And it takes me months to get back where I want to be with my cooking and eating habits.

    And I haven't found a way to balance this out? How do I keep cooking healthy nutritious food for my family if I simply have nothing left in me to do it with?

    To those thinking "I don't have time": Cooking CAN take a very long time but it doesn't have to. Have groceries delivered to you, use recipes that take 20 mins to make many portions and save and reheat those portions later. The time spent for each portion is going to be low!

    My view on cooking is this: You eat around 3 meals and 3 snacks every day. You live… 80 years? That's a whole lot of eating. Since you'll be eating regardless, you might as well learn how to cook so you can enjoy that aspect of your life more. And once you get over the initial hump, cooking is fun! I often find that I have more recipes that I want to make than I can actually eat myself.

    Don't underestimate the health difference between store bought bread and home made bread. I used to buy the (seemingly) most healthy and nutritious bread at the store, but I eventually tried baking my own sourdough bread. I'm not exaggerating when I say that I actually felt a difference in my body after replacing all the store bought bread in my diet to my own made sourdough.

    To those feeling intimidated by making sourdough: I view myself as a complete amateur when it comes to baking and I haven't baked "normal" bread before tackling sourdough. I failed a few times, but eventually learned and slowly improved. Now the sourdough I make is "good enough to bring at dinner parties". Also, the ingredients for making sourdough are as cheap as you can get (just flour and water) so failing isn't really fiscally punishing.

    Hello lovely mary, I have been binge watching your videos for the past couple of days, you make me feel safe if that makes any sense. I have a question if you have the time to answer it would be much appreciated.

    If I buy canned glass food, I.e Organic pasta sauces in glass jars organic spinach in glass jars, are these classed as a forever food like the tins or is this different? we have a brand called biona in the Uk and I am not sure what the rules are.. any opinions? Thank you

    A lot of my friends and family think I’m weird because I like to cook the “long way,” by preparing my own mayonnaise, or preferring dried beans over canned beans, or making my own jams. But for me cooking is not just about the final product that ends up on the plate, it’s about participating in the whole process from start to finish, which in the beginning usually means making mistakes and then learning to correct those mistakes so that each time it comes out a little bit better than last time.

    I can understand taking some shortcuts especially when I’m limited on time, but to be honest in the past year with the pandemic I have spent a lot more time at home, and so I took advantage of that by cooking all the things that I used to think I never have time for, and it turns out that most of the “shortcuts” that I used to rely on don’t actually save me that much time. I’m not sure I can ever go back to cooking the way I used to, that wouldn’t even feel like “cooking” anymore it would just be “assembling.”

    Hi Mary, I love your channel and have learned so from watching it.

    I do have a question though.

    I don't have room for a second fridge in my place, and so I'm wondering if I can water batch or pressure can ferments without destroying the enzymes? I use water batch for pickled veggies which I can then store in the pantry, just not sure if I can do that with fermented veggies like sauerkraut.

    Please let me know, and keep the amazing video's coming!!

    I think its so sad that my grannies are gone. I wish i could ask them all kinds of stuff now. Love to watch you do them, even though i am dutch and we might do things a little different. I am gonna check the sourdough video, cause we love it since we visited ireland.

    I was raised in a traditional foods kitchen home with 3 sisters but we all gradually got away from it for one reason or another. Finding ourselves with more time the last year and a half, a couple of us have been influenced by you and a couple of other YT channels to get back to it. I dove in and started kombucha, sourdough and sauerkraut- all at the same time. I got discouraged and decided to focus on one thing at a time and now I make the best sauerkraut and a pretty decent bread. I've gradually changed ingredients, like regular table salt to celtic salt, white sugar to sucanat and changing to organic things when I can. I'm on my second year of gardening and am about to can my first batch of my own tomatoes! Your encouragement and teaching has been my go-to and I wish I could express how much you have boosted my confidence to do all of these things. I look forward to our "chats" because that's what it feels like when I watch your videos. Thanks Mary I appreciate you!

    Great subject, glad you tackled it. This is only a recommendation but another great subject would be a 'GO -TO" bag for emergencies where you have to leave your home and take a backpack full of first-aid stuff and food, clothes and etc… You would be the perfect person to help us organize our "to-go" bag. The tutorial would be a hit, so helpful. Think about it…have a good one…

    I make what I use often like mustard, broth, dressings, I don't make mayo, sour cream or cream cheese because I just don't use enough of it to be worthwhile, I don't have too many canned goods, just some a few items like tomato paste, beans, corn.

    Thank you Mary. I've gotten away from Traditional foods but wanted to get back to eating better. This was very encouraging. I'm just getting settled into my little farmhouse and raising my own dairy from my goats. Thanks for the encouraging words…
