Self Sufficiency We Even Make Our Own Ice Cream

in #homesteading7 years ago

Part of becoming self sufficient is to provide all of our own food needs. This includes processing our own food as much as possible. And processing our own food also means that it is healthier for us. We know what goes into our food.

We are striving to become self sufficient and fully off the grid on a budget. We live on an 18 acre homestead and try to provide all of our own food by hunting, fishing, raising chickens and planting vegetables. But we also process our own pasta, hamburgers, sausages - and - ice cream.

In this day and age their is a lot of artificial junk in our food. Ice cream is one of the worst things you can buy these days unless you buy the more expensive stuff.

On our homestead we make our own ice cream using all natural ingredients. It is healthier for us and there is nothing artificial in our ice cream. And it is also cheaper.

I have a large hand crank ice cream maker I have used through the years but it is a lot of hard work and, unless you make larger batches, it is not worth the expense.

We recently bought the Donvier ice cream maker at a garage sale and we love it. With this we have all natural homemade ice cream in minutes.

Please ignore the comments below.

Trolls from YouTube have found me here and are harassing me.

They spread some horrible lies about me and my wife in hopes of turning people away from us.

Many have believed the lies and joined them.

They harass us in the real world and online.

All we do is share videos of our daily lives on the homestead.

Please do not give them the attention they seek.

Please ignore their comments and do not engage them.

They are dangerous in the real world.

Thank you.

Well Helloo Mr Reid, we here at PineRoadHOA are a group of neighbors that have gathered to come and find out more about you and your 100k+ following on Youtube. Looking forward to learning all about your lifestyle on here.

pinerdhoa,
Be careful where you walk around Jackass Acres!

QUICK !!!! roll up your pant legs it is to late to save your shoes !

Hey all here is a link from a Friend of Troy Reid from the past.
Go watch and read the comments from Reid's other freinds

Not sure if anyone watches Trogs filthy daily life anymore but if you do you can watch it here for free so he dosent get paid.
Its worth FA anyways, just another unfinished, never will be crap project.

I've noticed that a lot of you dont give TR any support on his electric blogs.
Shame really he puts so much in and deserves more encouragement.

Well Mr Reid your apology video is still set to private. Where is the copy of the land contract you promised?

Hope you have been getting enough sleep you do not look well.

More lies on your last video solar panel props with no wiring. We seem to have the same weather rain but at least it is 74F. How is Fairgrove life with Mom and Pop?

@bettyswallocks, Reid has no integrity.

I heard Bill got to go out to eat and shopping at Menards for his birthday.

What did you buy at Menards Troy?
More tan pants or cheesy puff balls that they have at the checkout?

Does anyone buy lumber there anymore?

@thediyworld. Please provide Proof that "they are dangerous in the real world".

You should not be allowed to earn one cent for making inflammatory and false statements.

You got he last sentence right at least. I took it away from you.


This is Troy William Reid, showing off his unique saluting style from his army days.


Imagine if Troy fathered a male offspring, who somehow got accepted into the armed forces. Troy’s idiocy would live on through his son, Troy “Harebrain” Reid.

@pineroadhoa Has the infamous DYI guy asked you sign the non-disclosure agreement yet? If not I have a copy of it for you to review with your lawyer. The guy is a total dick head and this non-disclosure agreement is a farce as t-liar claiming to be 95% off grid. Tell him to go fuk himself and to stick the pen up his ass.

@jackhoffmann, I notice Reid is not commenting again today, but the comments are disappearing.

He must be glued to his big screen tv on the wall below the loft of the chalet.
Keeping an eye on his new addiction.
While he's winding wire around a spool of course.

I wonder how much water and firewood Melanie has hauled this morning.

Trog’s been appealing for more help from steemit to counter his troll problem.




Apart from being told not to reply to us any more, it looks like he’s all out of options. Sorry about yer luck Troy.

You have all this time to make ice cream and noodles yet walk around at night with flashlights because you want to "save money"? This is really depressing. I'm so sad.

Its not so much making ice cream but the big picture. We try to process all of our own foods. Its about making our own things overall. And you cannot compare homemade ice cream to the cheap stuff. You have to compare it to the higher priced stuff with no artificial ingredients. Then it is a good deal.

You tell him Elvis !! Your olive skinned ass works numerous jobs to be able to keep the Leaky Marie running on fumes and spilling rusted parts across the greater Chicago area . You invented the word job .

The King of Freedom's lifestyle affects no one but himself. I do not have a wife and child to provide for and keep safe and warm. My actions affect nobody but myself! I'm seeing now why this issue smells as bad as it does and why people are perturbed.

Woooooo! learn to love it baby! Custom made!

Why are you attacking me troy? I'm asking about whats going on in your daily life. You post videos about "your daily life" and thats what I'm asking about?

Is this what you're going to do? Flag anyone who asks an uncomfortable but LEGITIMATE question? That pretty lame brother!

Wooooo! Your attitude sure do stink beta boy! Why you have to be nasty?

I just read your other comments on my blog. Very unkind. Nope, I dont like it.

Stay off my blog.

You have a good thing going on your blog.

But I dont need the insults and I do not want to hurt your rep.

Harass me and you will be flagged.

Just do your thing. Its pretty cool.

But if you dont like me, then just stay away.

Thank you.

Remove all these flags, from both your accounts, and I'll give you that. But short of that I just consider your request bullying. Maybe I'll even edit my comments

Woooooo! Custom made head to toe! King of Freedom baby

I will remove my flags but I request that you please remove the offending comments.

I really mean it that I think you have some cool stuff going on.

I would rather be friends than enemies.

I was full time in a camper 5 years ago.

I removed the flags. Please uphold your end of the deal.

Troy , are these disgusting things TRUE ??

I work hard for my money.

You asking me why I dont have a job sounds just like the gang you are hanging out with. And it is insulting.

You will not see me talking negatively about how you live your life.

Why would you do that to me?

Because you live a pauper's existence. Yes, you may work hard, but that's not the point. The countless hours you spend on SteemIt and YouTube does not provide a decent life for your wife and daughter. When it was just you freezing your ass off, that's one thing. But when you subject that sort of life on the people around you, that's another thing. You live in squalor. You eat like crap. You look sick and have aged 20 years in 4 years. Your vehicles always breakdown. You live in a 3-season house. Your child sleeps in a Rubbermaid container. Why? All because you get some sort of ego trip online spreading the gospel of Troy OR because you are too busy to work a 9 to 5 job. Or both. If I loved a woman I would want her to have the finer things in life. I wouldn't want her showering next to batteries, or outdoors in the summer. No. I would want a nice big shower for her. If I had a child I would be embarrassed to see him or her sleeping in a Rubbermaid container and clothed in items 100% donated by others. When will you do a personal inventory and realize what you are doing is a losing proposition? Do you have ANY ambition to provide for your family or are you comfortable "just getting by" the rest of your life? I know the answer. How sad.

TROY IS SLACKER He wants to live off others work. Mooch others food, spend other peoples money, live off things that other people discard. All this makes him a PARASITE. TROY IS A WORM.

...and don't forget Troy charges his SEVEN HUNDRED DOLLAR PHONE only INCHES AWAY FROM HIS INFANT DAUGHTER'S HEAD, subjecting her to microwave and EMF radiation!

Troy, are all these things that we have been reading here and on that website TRUE ???

Filming one day a week and living in squalor is not working hard. Working hard is working 60-80 hours a week working two or more jobs as some people have to.

Are you proud of all the donations and gifts you have received instead of working for all of those items.

Not working means no health insurance and no pension. How are you going to survive at 60 and put money aside for Michelle and college. I plan to retire at 40, house is paid no debts and putting at least $20000 a year in investments.

Not a life I would want.

Your reply saying it is a "legitimate question" is just another slap in the face. Stating as fact that I dont work?

You think that is ok?

You don't really work, Troy. You hardly edit your videos. Capturing the video at most takes 30 minutes a day. As for the other things you do around the home, well, those are chores. When we get off of our regular job we all have chores, too. We all spend our weekends fixing up our house. We spend evening gardening. We don't spend time building Bedini motors, but we also have time to play. But if you are comparing yourself to a construction worker, a plumber, or assembly line worker, or a farmer, you're full of shit.

troy do you get w2's from your online job? do you have social security taken out? do you pay state and federal taxes from your income? or do you have to beg subliminally for donations to support your family? which is also taxable. just some honest questions about your "job" and this work you say you do...

Why dont you go make your own videos and leave my family alone!!!!!

People will NEVER see me harass you in any way, shape or form.

People will NEVER see me trolling your videos or blogs.

People will NEVER see me talk bad about you outside of your own harassing comments on my own blog.

The only one hurting anyone here is YOU.

Harassing is a crime!!

Trolling and libel is a crime!!

Leave!!!

My guess is the baby needs proper lighting or runs the risk of eye damage or improper development. How is 15 hours a day by flashlight good for a baby's developing eyesight? smh

No I'm not a doctor, simply my gut feeling

Maybe TR will put the kid to work in the mineing industry when it gets a bit older, some fuker needs to finish that underground greenhouse.

How does Tbag measure up Elvis ? Is he a Beta boy ? Does he produce quality content ? Does he have the charisma , the girth ? We want to know the bottom line . WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I toof on that beta boy T-liar! Wooooooooooo!

It is a lifestyle. We enjoy trying to reduce out energy cost. And we love to learn the old ways.

Hello Troy,
Fancy seeing you here.
How have you earned the name Cock Sucker, I hear its about the only thing you've earned since your channels gone fuked!
BTW theres more of us on the way now we know where you are.

Are you as skanky as they claim at sucks . Old Codge gave Fruitloops the new moniker Cock Sucker but if you play your cards right Arlene M____ E____ , Greater Cock Sucker could be yours for the taking .

Mr. Reid @thediyworld, the good people over at .sucks watched your latest video this morning.

Not very good reviews.

Still making excuses for those solar panels laying on the ground I hear.

You said you don't want them to blow over in the wind like what was happening in Pine Bush.

My first thought being the solar expert you claim to be, would be to make a small rack to mount them to and use stakes to drive into the ground.

I assume seeing you do nothing proper, and there's no wires, you don't use solar power.
Plain and simple.

@thediyworld, Considering your solar panels are obviously Props from today's YT video, could you please explain how you determined and calculated that you are 95% off grid?

I'm sure your viewers would like that answered too.
At least the ones with critical thinking capabilities.

I know I do.

SMH. What can you say?

Reid @thediyworld does NOTHING Properly.

I suppose, if you don't "need" solar electricity, it doesn't matter.


Screenshot from today’s video Solar Power ~ Battery Box ~ Processing Deer & More, showing 3 hotplates being used on the electric stove, probably consuming around 4 - 5 KW. Explain that Mr. “95% Off Grid” Reid.

Here’s Mrs Volfie hunting a few days before, no bullshit here, proof, something Trog knows nothing about!
Kind of makes your channel like a bit tame eh Trog!

why are they laying on the ground? my solar panels are on a slanted turn table to track the sun. strange and weird...

What's going on over at Dot Sucks Codge ? They won't let me sign in , been trying for a few days now . Am I banned ? Might have to ask TR to reinstate me on YT .

Circling the drain to the Filthy Cess Pit below!

@jackhoffmann. Another one of Reids MANY Failures.

The not insulated (well, it did have a moving blanket for a door) greenhouse built by Mr.Grecco, along the south and west tree line, with a water tank for feeder goldfish, that was supposed to be heated by a hydronic wood stove,
That FROZE solid while Reid was on vacation in Michigan looking for an new place to live and abandon the mess he made in Pine Bush.

And who does he blame?
The unknown caretaker.

This moron totally trashed a sweet little wood stove with a water jacket when he let it freeze up.
Everything this clown puts his hands on ends up trashed.

Mr. Reid @thediyworld likes to sound like he's this pioneer in the self sufficient world.

Too bad he's more dependent on Others than he cares to admit.

Here he is featuring the "all natural" aspect of his life.
Making his own ho-made ice cream for his viewers.

If there is one thing Reid does, is anything "EASY".

But I find it peculiar that Reid, claiming to be all healthy and all natural, has no problem buying Cheese Puff Balls.

He claimed this summer "he let Melanie get them".

I don't even let the junk into my shopping cart.

Good morning Troy! I watched your latest video earlier and was frankly disappointed by it. You were out there in 43 degree temperatures, but was rugged up in a heavy coat. Didn’t you brag about how you could easily endure those temperatures in just a t shirt? You also claimed that you were almost off grid, yet showed Melanie cooking on that electric stove, using 3 hot plates powered by 100% on grid electricity. Those 3 solar panels aren’t connected to anything. I don’t really know what to say about that moldy old rodent infested camper. Poor effort, but par for the course for you.


This is Troy William Reid, showing off his unique saluting style from his army days.


Imagine if Troy fathered a male offspring, who somehow got accepted into the armed forces. Troy’s idiocy would live on through his son, Troy “Harebrain” Reid.

Same ole same ole, Another day and another ass kicking. Even the steemit's want nothing to do with you little man. Do you think it has anything to do with you being a lying, ebegging con man? I was being nice and did not mention Mommy's boy. All this fact from your very own videos and you still have the tenacity to keep posting your charade. We know pride and self respect have never entered your existance and it is obvious a conscience is non existent too.
Mommy is the primary enabler and I am sure Bill must be so proud.
