Whole Grain Pasta with Tomatillo-Avocado Sauce
We have yet to grow a decent amount of tomatoes since sowing seeds here in Texas. Young seedlings have been eaten by grasshoppers. Chickens have mowed down one foot plants. Heat and drought have wreaked havoc despite our early planting and earlier variety choices. Right now we are watching our beautiful green fruits disappearing to…
Menu Plan & a call for your breakfast ideas
Another week, another menu plan. I think the main reason I like to create one and put one up for the week is because a lot of things need advanced preparation. Soaking grains and beans or taking something out of the freezer only takes a minute, but if I forget I take a lot more…
Flash-Fried Broccoli Greens with Garlic and Tallow
For several years before we moved off-grid, we relied on local farmers and CSAs for the bulk of our vegetable intake. Starting in May we received baskets of fresh produce weekly, accompanied by a friendly smile and a warm handshake from those who grew it. It was during this time that I was introduced to…
Late Summer Vegetable Soup with Bacon, Garlic, and Thyme
It is 90+ degrees outside today and here I am sharing what might be one of the yummiest soups we’ve ever made. I actually think this is a good time of year for soup. There is just so much good produce and when you need to use it up, soup is the simplest path to…
Our Daily Rye Bread (Review and Recipe from Home Baked)
Bread is such a divisive thing these days. What once was considered the staff of life is now either a wonder food or a wicked indulgence. I’ve been on both sides of that fence and I’m happy to be back smack dab in the middle where bellies need to be filled, bodies need to…
Winter Minestrone
Lindsay is asking for nutritious freezer meals, and I figured what could be better than a soup. I generally have leftovers and freeze them for our own use later or to give to family members who don’t have the time or inclination to make nourishing meals. I am trying to move away from freezing our…

Denise’s last blog post..a jar of two cities
Hi, I read your post on H2B@H. Do you know there are quite a lot of chocies of herbs you could take to build your milk supply up so you wouldn’t have to give the baby homemade formula?
Erin – Yep. I have taken every herb I could get my hands on, pumped around the clock, eaten every galactogogue in the book. I have a low thyroid that I am working on healing, which I suspect is the root cause of the milk supply issues. Thank you for your comment.
I read your guest post and wanted to comment about your milk supply issue. I nursed my 3 children from 12-18 months each and had supply problems with one of them. My doctor placed me on Reglan for a few weeks to help increase my supply. This medication is used for stomach problems or something not normally associated with lactation but it was successful in my friend and I.
He made several phone calls and read material about it before prescribing it but it works!
I also pumped on one side while the baby nursed on the opposite side every time or at least every other time to boost the demand.
Just a few tips that I thought you would like to hear to go back to all natural if possible.
