There is a lot of hype about Pantry Challenges this month. Do you participate in any? I try to cook from my pantry all year, but this is a great time to do an inventory of what you have and use up some stuff that has been there awhile. Get inspired my friends!

I need to take more pictures of the garden but I get too busy taking care of it that I rarely stop and take photos.

This year I have a plan to make my house less cluttered a little bit at a time, clean one room every month. I'll spend the first 2 weeks this month, about 20 mins a day purging and decluttering my bedroom and then the rest of the month we deep clean and organize. This is the brilliant idea of Tracy Lynn over at Simple Living Country Gal. I first heard about her on a podcast I follow from Melissa K. Norris, I even got a free download for a Decluttering Plan Workbook.

Hi, I'm Katrina and along with my husband Mike's help, unlike typical homesteaders, we are building a homestead right smack in the middle of the suburbs, while still working full time day jobs. We have a 5,000 square foot corner lot in the mild climate of Washington State in the Pacific Northwest.
