Hey, pioneers, welcome to episode number 486.

This is a throwback episode to my favorite must-have homestead items.

If you've ever browsed your shop or scrolled Pinterest and wondered what to really gift the gardener, kitchen lover, do it yourself, enthusiast, or honestly yourself, then this episode is going to be your go-to.

In this throwback episode, I walk you through the tools, books, and treasures I've used or been given that have become everyday essentials, from cast iron

cookware to high-quality linens, preserving equipment, to cozy home touches, kind of the whole

gamut there.

And you'll also hear which gifts I would never give and the reason why.

And stories about what some of these items have meant in the rhythm of a real homestead and

home kitchen life and i would love your input as we plan the season ahead the brand new season

coming your way in january your thoughts truly matter as i've shared've been taking some time off and we're doing some of these favorite

throwback seasons and really doing a lot of reflection and looking at things.

And I want to make sure that what I'm putting out there is truly helpful and beneficial to

you.

So I would like to know what kind of episodes you prefer going forward,

maybe like gift guides like this one, skill focused how-toes, deep dive interviews,

more just real in the life, what's happening, kind of behind the scenes type episodes,

or even deep dives where it would be one or two maybe three episodes on a

specific topic where we go really deep and speaking of that what topics are you craving more kitchen
