This economy is tough, and I am blessed with a man who is a provider. He allows me to be home with our toddler which is the best gift I'll ever receive. Here are 5 things I do as a to help us survive this economy-

1. Make coffee at home! Lattes, cold brew, matcha, etc. These can all be made at home for WAY cheaper than getting them out. I get Starbucks occasionally as a treat, or sometimes I just want an Alani but making my own iced coffee most mornings saves us a lot of money.

2. Shop sales! This one takes some attention, but keep an eye out for sales on things you buy on repeat. Ground beef is on sale? Great! I'll buy enough for the next 2 or 3 weeks. Same goes for our daughter's diapers, wipes, and snacks.

3. Skip the nail appointment. I know this may be controversial because mamas deserve to feel pretty and be pampered sometimes, but I feel like it's such a waste to spend $100 every 4-6 weeks on my fingernails while I have kids to feed, and am not contributing a whole lot financially to the household. My boyfriend would absolutely be fine with me getting them done, but I choose not to. Same goes for expensive hair appointments.

4. Thrift! I love going . I find some of my daughter's clothes this way (although I am picky and prefer Old Navy or Target lol). We find great vintage and new toys, linens, cookware, and the occasional decor piece. I also use Marketplace and apps like depop, poshmark, vinted, ebay, etc. Why pay full price? Just make sure you clean things thoroughly before using or wearing them.

5. Live below my means and be grateful! This is the most important. I don't try to chase trends or compare what we have to others. That's a trap! I don't hoard makeup or the newest sugar scrubs, I rewear outfits, I find my clothes either on sale or . I clip digital coupons and make home-cooked meals 90% of the time. These all add up! I don't have everything, but I don't NEED everything to be happy.

It's work but it's worth it to make sure our family lives comfortably. I am so grateful to my boyfriend for providing for us and making sure we know how loved we are.

This weekend - Blueberry Streusel & Caramel Apple Crumble Muffins! Fan favorites 😁😘

Tomorrow is the last official stock day for the stand this year! It's bittersweet. This year has been so much fun, and we were welcomed so warmly by the community. 🩷 I am so grateful to all of you for coming and supporting us both at the stand, and at the Sparta Market, as well as making special orders. I am going to take the cooler seasons off (mostly) to slow down and enjoy time with my family and friends, try a couple new ideas out, work on some new recipes for next year, and maybe go snowmobiling. 😁

I'll still be accepting special orders for pickup on Saturdays still through October but not fully stocking it. Message me on here or email [email protected] to place an order. I'll also accept large orders year-round for things like office parties, birthdays, anniversaries, etc. 🎉

PCK Will be back on the spring, bigger and better. 🩷 Thank you for trusting me to make your favorite sweet treats.

This Saturday will be the final official farmstand stock day for 2026! I may do something for Halloween, and Thanksgiving if we don't have snow. I am still taking special orders through at least October. I will be available for large orders for events and such through the winter as well, but I am going to slow down and focus on my family and home. I want to enjoy some time with my toddler while she is still so small. I am SO thankful to everyone for such a great first year with Pike's Cottage Kitchen. 🤍

I put these shelves up today, and somewhere along the way, they became about so much more than decorating.

They're filled with little pieces of my life.

Things I've found on walks because I've always been the person who comes home with something interesting tucked into a pocket. Little treasures from nature that caught my eye. Things I've collected over the years, things I've been gifted by people I love, and pieces that remind me of different seasons of my life. Things that keep me grounded. Moss, mushrooms, bones, botanicals, old brass, glass jars and all of the strange, beautiful little things that have always made me happy.

I haven't had a space like this in years.

Life changed. I changed.

There were years of figuring out where I was going, starting over, building a life with someone new, becoming a mom, and learning an entirely new version of myself. Somewhere in all of that, some of the little things that made me me quietly got packed away.

And today, I unpacked some of them.

Motherhood is, without question, the most important role I will ever have. Being Mia's mom has changed me in ways I couldn't have understood before her, and I wouldn't trade this version of my life for anything.

But I'm learning something else, too.

Being a mom doesn't have to mean disappearing into motherhood.

I can adore being her mom and still be the woman who loves wandering outside looking for feathers. I can still love old things, strange things, beautiful things, plants and bones and mushrooms and jars full of things most people probably wouldn't give a second glance. 😂 I can bake. I can garden. I can create. I can dream about the little farm and home we're working toward. I can surround myself with things that make my heart happy simply because I love them.

In fact, I think there's something really important about letting the people I love have all of me.

The woman Russ fell in love with. The mom Mia is growing up watching. The person I've always been, and the person I'm still becoming.

Maybe part of finding yourself after becoming a mother isn't about trying to become the person you were before. Maybe it's about gathering those pieces of her back up, keeping the ones that still belong, letting go of the ones that don't, and making room for everything you've become since.

So these are just a couple of shelves on one wall of my home.

But today they feel a little bit like coming home to myself. 🌿🤎

And I think that's worth celebrating.

My grandma Pat taught me how to pickle beets last summer, and I did 3 gallons yesterday! ❤️
