  <description>&lt;p&gt;In this 243rd Episode of the Small Scale Life Podcast, your host Tommy Cakes takes the helm for a Just Tommy Cakes Show.  Adam is sick, so Tom is going to take the time to dive into the following topics:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The potential TikTok ban and how it could affect Small Scale Life&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Changes to the Small Scale Life website to make it more functional and organized&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Tommy's 2025 Garden Plans (big changes to the Small Scale Garden) &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What Backyard Birds are hitting the Suet Feeders&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Answering Audience Questions and&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Talking about the direction of Small Scale Life going forward&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It has been a while since Tommy has done a solo Live Stream, but he ended up covering a lot of topics in an hour!  For show notes and more information, check out &lt;a href="https://smallscalelife.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;https://smallscalelife.com&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;hr&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Catch ANT LIVE on the Small Scale Life YouTube Channel at 7:30 PM Central on Monday evenings.  Adam and I talk about mindset, small business, wellness, gardening, homesteading and other topics that come up.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Remember to learn, do, grow and be a little better everyday. And that, my friends, is a good thing!&lt;/p&gt;
