It’s been said that many of my recipes start with ¼ cup of lard. That might actually be true and now that I think about it, this recipe holds many of the hallmarks of my cooking. I scribbled it out in an email for a dear friend a couple of years ago after I brought a…
This morning I was stumped for what to make for breakfast. We didn’t have enough eggs for our usual scrambled eggs, smoothies didn’t sound great, I had no soaked oats, and not enough in my grain-free flour stash to make these coconut flour pancakes. Someone on facebook mentioned a Dutch Baby pancake, which I knew…
Kimi over at The Nourishing Gourmet is hosting a nourishing fall food carnival today. I can’t wait to see more recipes for all of our fall produce. I love fall. It is my favorite season and the food is fantastic as well. Apples, winter squash, cabbage, pears, greens… they’re all terrific. I have been using…
Bountiful, delicious, sweet, and fresh – the season of fruit is upon us. Spending a couple of mornings picking blueberries earned us all we could eat for a few weeks. Peaches will be picked up by the caseload very soon and then we will proceed with raspberry picking. Since we do not buy a lot…
We eat beans or legumes nearly every day in our home. I suppose that is one way we feed this growing family of ours real food on a budget. Beans and rice, beans and tortillas, lentils or hummus, and bean soups are not all that glamorous, but they are inexpensive, nourishing fare that can go…
This is the first year we’ve grown fava beans (also known as broad beans). They overwinter here in our warmer climate and we have been nothing but happy with this new addition to the homestead. We ate a lot of the fava bean leaves over the winter in salads and soups. Once spring weather came…

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.
