Crunchy Mama’s Banana Bread
Ever since I was a little girl, my Grandmother has always had a special place in my heart. I was her “Precious Princess”, and we were the best of pen pals. Growing up, we lived in separate states, so hand written and mailed letters were fairly frequent....
Cajun Chicken Alfredo
I found my super-hero name. “The Great Food Maker”. At least that’s what J-Man called me today. Hey, it’s better that hearing “Mama, Mama, Mama” for the umpteenth bazillionth time in a row. I’ll take it. I’m just...
Sweet Potato Banana Bites

Hi! I’m Brenna Jo! I’m the Feisty Girl who runs this joint along with my über talented (and bearded) hubby, Mountain Man. We have 3 kiddos (J-Man, The Nugget, and Little Miss T). Former NC residents, we relocated to Montana back in 2018. We jumped headfirst into the Homeschool scene during covid, and started Grace River Homeschool in the Fall of 2020. With all the changes happening in the world, we decided we wanted to be as self-sufficient as possible, so we bought chickens and are trying our hands at growing some of our own food. Thanks for stopping by! Take a look around, and let’s chat about food, natural wellness, Jesus, homeschool, or really anything to do with kids, FRIENDS (yes, the best show on the face of the Earth), or life!
