Mammie & Nickel

Once upon a time I ran a busy photography and makeup business… then God called me to slow down. Simple living, real ingredients, and faith! Welcome!

That path led me to freshly milled flour and a love for food the way He intended it to be.

🩶 Fun Fact Friday 🩶

Can I share something that surprised me?

If you’ve cut out gluten because it makes you feel miserable… you *might* actually be cutting out the wrong thing. 👀🍞

For some people, it isn’t always the gluten itself.

Sometimes it can be:

🌾 Sensitivity to chemicals used in growing and harvesting wheat (like glyphosate)
🌾 Added synthetic vitamins in conventional flour after milling (like folic acid)
🌾 Certain grain varieties that can simply be harder on your body

That’s one reason many people do really well with flour that is:

✔️ Organic
✔️ Freshly milled or stone milled
✔️ Unbleached
✔️ Unenriched / unfortified
✔️ Made from quality grains

Basically… real flour, closer to the way it was originally intended. 🤍

I’ve had so many conversations with people who assumed gluten was the culprit… only to discover their bodies responded differently when they switched to simpler ingredients and flour in a more natural form.

Of course—everyone’s body is different, and this isn’t medical advice. And if you have diagnosed celiac disease or a wheat allergy, this absolutely doesn’t apply the same way. 💛

But I do think it’s worth asking:

✨ Have you ever noticed a difference in how you feel with homemade bread vs. store-bought bread?

Tell me below—I’d love to hear your experience! 👇🍞

Today we pause with grateful hearts. ❤️🤍💙

Memorial Day is more than a long weekend or the beginning of summer—it’s a sacred reminder of the brave men and women who gave everything and never made it home.

Because of their sacrifice, we’re able to gather around our tables, hug our families a little tighter, worship freely, laugh loudly, and enjoy the simple blessings we so often take for granted.

Today we honor those heroes with deep gratitude and humble hearts. We remember the empty seats at family tables. We pray for the families who carry both pride and grief. And we thank God for the courage of those who laid down their lives so others could live in freedom.

“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” — John 15:13

From our family at Mammie & Nickel, thank you to the ones who gave everything, and to the families who continue to carry their memory forward.

May we never forget.
May we live grateful.
And may God continue to bless this country and the freedoms we’ve been given. 🇺🇸

🌾✨ FUN FACT FRIDAY ✨🌾

Freshly milled flour is more than just delicious homemade bread… it’s packed with nutrients your body actually needs 💛🍞

Whole grains naturally contain:
🌾 Soluble + insoluble fiber
🌾 B vitamins
🌾 Iron
🌾 Magnesium
🌾 Zinc + manganese

And these nutrients do some pretty amazing things 👇
✨ B vitamins help support:
• energy production
• brain and cognitive health
• nervous system function
• red blood cell production
(Folate — a B vitamin found in whole grains — is especially important during pregnancy 💛)

✨ Magnesium is involved in OVER 300 enzyme reactions in the body 😳 It helps support:
• strong bones
• muscle + nerve function
• healthy blood pressure

✨ Iron helps transport oxygen through the body and supports prevention of iron-deficiency anemia.

One of the things I love most about freshly milled flour is that it allows us to use the WHOLE grain — the way it was intended 🌾🫶

Plus let’s be honest…Fresh milled flour also makes your kitchen smell like a cozy bakery and happiness 😂🍞

✨ Introducing: Fun Fact Friday ✨

Because apparently I can’t just bake bread… now I also want to nerd out about flour with you guys 🤓🌾😂

One of my biggest goals with this little bakery is not only to make nourishing freshly milled goodies, but also to help educate and share WHY freshly milled flour is so special in the first place.

So every Friday I’ll be sharing little fun facts, tips, ingredient education, and random grain knowledge that honestly makes me way too excited 😂🍞

Today’s fun fact to start us off👇

Freshly milled flour contains all 3 parts of the wheat berry — the bran, germ, AND endosperm 🌾 and contains 40 of the 44 essential nutrients for SURVIVAL.

Unlike most store-bought white flour which strips away the bran and germ leaving only the starchy endosperm, nothing is stripped away, which means more flavor, more nutrients (we will dig MUCH deeper as we learn about flour), and bread that actually tastes like real wheat 🥹🩶

Now tell me…

Have you ever tried freshly milled bread before, or are you totally new to this world? 👀

And if you learned something new today, share this post with a fellow bread lover so we can spread the freshly milled obsession together 💕🍞

There’s just something special about fresh bread cooling on the counter. 💕

These four loaves are headed out to some of my weekly subscription families today, and moments like this never get old. Freshly milled organic flour, simple ingredients, and bread made slowly and intentionally the old-fashioned way.

The smell in the kitchen today feels like home.

If your house could smell like one thing forever… would it be fresh baked bread cause it’s one of my favorites? 🍞✨

I wanna share with you the story and name behind this new lil venture - Why Mammie & Nickel? 💕 I shared this on my personal page - but it deserves a permanent spot here!

This name is a love letter to my grandparents—the two people who shaped me, believed in me, never let me doubt myself, and somehow put up with all my wild ideas.

“Mammie” was my gramma. I made up that name by smooshing together “ma’am” and “Grammie”—my very own special nickname for her.

We were always close, but in the last couple years of her life, we became inseparable.

She celebrated everything I did—my bread experiments that didn’t always rise, my gardening projects that sometimes looked more like jungles, my prepping plans that probably seemed a little over the top—and she did it all with that roll in her eye and her famous, “welllll, oh gosh, or pfffffff”

“Nickel” is me. My grandpa gave me that nickname when I was a baby because my great-grandpa couldn’t remember my real name. He called me “five cents”—or Nickel—and somehow, that tiny little name stuck with me forever.

Both of them were people of deep faith, full of love, and endlessly generous with their time, their wisdom, and their hearts.

This name is a tribute to them, but especially to Mammie—who believed in Nickel - her “darling granddaughter”, even when she thought I was completely crazy. And she did often 😜

“Mammie & Nickel” is silly, sentimental, and full of heart. It’s a reminder of where I come from, the love that shaped me, and the joy of having someone in your corner no matter what—even when your ideas seem a little ridiculous. 💕
