The Farmhouse Edit: Debt-free living, summer sourdough, and what we’re skipping in the new house (+ more Q&A!)
Episode 341
Sunday, 28 June, 2026
From laundry bottlenecks to housing market realities, I’m diving into your current questions in the midst of our busy build season. I’m sharing why we skip chore charts and budgets, how I fix sticky whole grain dough, and what postpartum has typically looked like for me. I also talk through common questions about our debt-free journey of homeownership, why two washers wouldn’t help our laundry system, and how we’re handling homeschool without a dedicated schoolroom. Plus, my go-to sourdough recipes this summer that keep us well-fed without keeping me in the kitchen all day!In this episode, we cover:Living in the fullness of a busy season and what it feels like to build a house while pregnant with baby nineChore charts and budgets?
