This week's podcast is zeroing in our homemaking skills! Summertime in the kitchen is just plain different than any other season. There are a number of reasons this might be the case, but irregardless of what the reason is for each of us individually, collectively I have seen this to be true. Part of making the most of our time in the kitchen during this season is creating a plan. In episode 36, we are focusing our plan on the both the long and short game of the season.

For the long game, we talk about how to map out what we hope to produce in our summertime kitchens that will feed and nourish our families once the snow flies. Food preservation is a great opportunity, but also a ton of work. Making sure we have the tools, the time, and the right method for our season can help us to capitalize on the investment we are putting forth.

The short game is our day-to-day and week-to-week plans. With even small changes we can implement, we can make our time in the kitchen efficient, creating more time for playing in the sunshine!
