This week, Carla describes the dystopian nightmare of trying to renew her passport, she fills us in on the recently held Freedom Fest in Rapid City, SD, and Tammy tells us more about the candidates running in the upcoming Manchester elections.

Basically, this is a curried minced beef dish with apple and dates topped with an egg custard. You are welcome.
Preheat the oven to 350F. Heat lard in cast iron skillet over medium heat. Sautee onions and garlic, add and brown the ground beef breaking into small crumbles. Remove some of the grease, if necessary. Add the apple and dates. Stir. Add the spices and cook until meat is cooked and dish is fragrant. Remove from the heat. Cover in loose tinfoil and place in oven. Cook for 30 minutes at 350F. A few minutes before the dish is ready, mix the cream and 5 eggs, season with salt and pepper, and beat until frothy. Remove meat from oven, pour over the eggs, add the bay leaves, and return to oven. Bake for 7-10 minutes, until the egg custard on top is cooked through. I serve this with toasted coconut flakes, Mrs. Balls chutney, and sometimes, if I'm cheating, sliced fresh bananas with mayo/yogurt mix with parsley. Traditionally, bobotie is also served with "borrie rys" which is turmeric infused rice. I find it doesn't need the carbs to be a freedomnomnom bomb!Paleo Bobotie with Apple and Dates

I’m working hard at “just shipping it,” as Seth Godin suggests. So, even when I could tinker to make something better, I don’t, I just “ship it,” because I promised myself I would. This leads to me I producing more stuff, and this FEELS GREAT!
There are some steps between feeling great and shipping it, though. Mostly me yelling at the computer about things I am struggling with, like learning how to use waaaaaaaaay too sophisticated video editing software, or trying to synch video captions, or designing an opening slide, or adding A SUBSCRIPTION BUTTON (finally!).
Video production is a skill that I still need to learn and everything takes waaaaaaaaay longer than it should. Since I value my time, I find this frustrating, but then I remind myself, the state of flow comes from routine and passion combined. Patience, my pretty. And, while I’m s-l-o-w-l-y learning new frustrating things, I am also s-l-o-w-l-y building out an actual video production studio at home, and I’m getting to play around in my keto kitchen, and I’m growing. How cool is that?!?
Other things I learned this week, related to filming and editing a cooking show at home:
1. Don’t multitask! Making two recipes at once, while functional when you have 20 guests coming for dinner is grand, but it makes editing for one recipe a nightmare!
2. Pause between situations if you plan to edit later.
3. Consider going back to one camera and one take?
Do you have a passion project you’re dying to launch? What’s holding you back? How do you spend your time now? If you could change one thing to help yourself kick off this project, what would it be? What if I told you, maybe focussing on your health is where you should start…
I mention health, because good health is the gift of natural stamina, and this is what you need in order to complete the things YOU want to do! I would not have been able to successfully add these personal projects to my plate a couple of years ago. I would not have stuck to the timeline, gotten discouraged, and given up.
Now, I know better. I know, for me:
1. It is crucial to stick to a production schedule. JUST SHIP IT! (Even when it is not perfect!)
2. I had to develop this skill and teach myself that routines for my personal projects matter just as much as my professional obligations (if not more).
3. This means prioritizing myself, and saying “no” to other things because producing my creative projects matters to me, and that’s enough!
4. And, thanks to the lifestyle changes I have made, I have the stamina and energy to push through and make the things I want to make happen, happen.
Learn how I became a healthier me by making slow and steady changes. If I can do it, so can YOU!
I had such a great time with these guys! Show them some lurv and subscribe to their podcast and channel!

We were so happy to have another Free State Project alum join us for a fun conversation covering Liberty in NH, Porcfest, and nourishing your mind and body. Carla gave us a rundown of her move to the states and NH, her run in with the law and the landmark case that resulted from it, and her continuous journey towards self improvement. Carla’s infectious positivity really lit up this episode. We are already buzzing about getting her back on for round 2!

When the time comes, I hope y’all remember the people like me who were RIGHT about the lab origin of the virus and the inefficacy of masks, whose refusal to wear one was PERFECTLY REASONABLE, who REFUSED TO BE SILENCED even when receiving death threats and being shadow-banned, and who have the SOLUTIONS to the insanity of your government’s overreach. (Psst, it starts with you acknowledging the government and its unchecked lackeys are your abusers, not saviors!)
I’m also heartened that these disclosures came from Freedom of Information requests, which is the federal equivalent of RSA 91-A, New Hampshire’s Right-to-Know laws. It is through forcing the government to reveal their secrets to us that we will prevail. You cannot hold a secret government operating without checks and balances accountable if you don’t know what they are up to… BUT I know this, they’re never up to anything other than lining their own pockets. Expect the expected: corruption, immorality, greed, name calling, oppressive, and abusive behavior. While telling you the exact opposite! Like… gaslighting!
Ask yourself, who benefits from calling you a victim and oppressed?
