People in this comment section really need to chill out! This woman has a 6 month old baby (and family at large) to care for, a TH-cam channel to manage, a garden the size of a whole house, farm animals, a new house to renovate, the list goes on….and yet people have the audacity to tell her to “get her act together” “stop goofing around” “improve the quality of her videos” just to quote some mean comments I’ve seen here😑 Stop projecting your perfectionism (and entitled energy) on others. Let her be a human, an imperfect human that makes mistakes. Good grief!!
Yes, being rude is unacceptable. BUT except for the baby, those other things are choices. No one HAS to have a garden the size of a whole house or have a TH-cam channel. Also, no one HAS to watch if they don't like what they see. When multiple people comment on the same issues, it's probably a good idea to pay attention.
@@JanetPlanet68 Everyone deserves kindness. Empathy goes a long long way. Offering “advice” does not have to be hurtful or unkind.
She’s streets ahead of most of us human beings! God bless the humble and authentic. Keep up the good work Bec ❤
People should remember that she mentioned that she was dyslexic.
I could never do what she does. So I agree all the downers needs to chill.
Baking tip: Glass dishes/pans do not heat up as fast as metal or conduct the same level of heat. Using glass will hinder the "setting up" of a recipe. Metal is preferred if you are making cakes, brownies, blondies, cookie bars, quick breads, muffins, etc. If you can't use a metal pan you can decrease the temperature and bake longer. 😊 Hope that helps!

It did say use a metal pan in the recipe.
This is exactly what I meant. Thank you for being far better with words.
@@luanngates4982 The original comment was literally saying that Becky's use of glass pans here isn't the preferred type of pan traditionally used for cakes and brownies. I'm not sure why you're timestamping like crazy. It was constructive criticism, to ensure the best outcome in future.
Girl, you have a knack for picking your bowls too small! ❤
I have always thought that too. Her life would be so much easier if she used bigger bowls. Drives me crazy to watch her struggling to try not be messy.
yes lol. when she put the butter in the bowl, i thought oh no. but then she said she was just going to soften it and i thought ok. then when she re-read the directions and was going to melt it, i thought oh no! i always wince a bit when i see anyone filling up bowls or pots or pans to the brim and then have to stir it. i use a vessel twice as big as my ingredients because i'm such a sloppy stirrer lol
Yeah, the utilization of the small bowl and the spilling of the butter because of that pissed me off more than I thought it would lol
………too small a bowl always, and please add only one egg at a time, and double check the freshness of your ingredients before you throw them in a recipe. Hard learned lessons 😊
Add mustard to the dressing
SHAME on all of you negative Nancy's here. Bullies all. Becky is only human so, cut her some slack. She's out there ACTUALLY doing the work... you're just watching. If you've realized she made a mistake...don't replicate it. Easy peasy. Mistakes or not...I appreciate her efforts. Thanks Becky.
I absolutely love that you left the spilled butter part in this video! That kind of stuff happens, and it's just so nice to see that I'm not the only one! ❤And-we just keep going with the cooking! 😊
Great comments about baking in metal or glass. I am sure many will realized right away why they had the problem they did. Also, Becky's Mom made a comment about cutting off the Lettuce when it is first ready, or you will not get a second harvest. Unfortunately Becky was talking over her so it was very hard to catch her comment. Becky Josh and Baby are so blessed to have wonderful support from their families.
I love Becky she's as clumsy as me in the kitchen sometimes but she's so much more talented than i am. Love how she shows how real she is without editing it out
Becky is so real and Doesn’t hide cooking glitches. 😮 That’s why I like her. AND because she gets so much done and it’s SO good!
I love your videos & you are absolutely adorable & one of the most authentic ladies I’ve witnessed ❤. I’m a 61 year old Georgia girl & everything about your lifestyle seems so familiar to me-the cooking from scratch, the family love & gatherings, the gardening & preservation. Great job sweet girl 👏👏. Also, Wyse Guide has a delicious blondie recipe, perfect every time.
Hi Becky,
When melted butter overflowed in the microwave, you said you didn’t realize the volume of 3c of butter. The recipe called for 1 1/2 sticks of butter so doubled you only needed 1 1/2c of butter. No worries! You’re caramel sauce on ice cream is plenty for dessert!
Was just checking the comments to see if someone else noticed that!! I said to myself... Becky, you needed three STICKS of butter...NOT 3 CUPS!!😂😂
yeah she used double the amount needed! i was hoping someone else noticed bc it was killing me lol. also that is def a yam; sweet potatoes are arm.
Yup, too much butter. Was going to comment the same thing if no one else noticed.
I was thinking the same thing!!
I was thinking that too. It seemed liked a lot of butter at the time, and then confirmed when recipe read.
For anyone wondering, the perfect brown sugar proportion is 1 Tablespoon molasses per cup of granulated sugar for light brown sugar and for dark brown it's 2-3 Tablespoons per cup (depending on how dark you want it). In the end it looked like Becky hit that right on the head for Light brown sugar :)
Thank you for the measures.
One thing I noted from the blonde recipe - I believe it said a 8x8 METAL pan.
Metal and glass have different properties in terms of how they heat up, bake and retain heat. Copying the temperatures and times for a metal pan but using a glass pan will not produce the same results.
I've been baking a long time and I've not had a recipe fail by substituting a glass for metal or vice versa. You may need an adjustment to time or temp, could that have been an issue?
@BeeCace-gc5er No, they are speaking the truth. It's even noted on test kitchen channels.
Interstate
Where do you see the Blondie recipe? I don't see a 🔗 maybe I missed it.
There is a difference in the way heat is conducted in glass pans verses metal pans. I am sure this was the problem.
I stole your idea of bringing freezer meals to a vacation rental and it was amazing. I was in charge of 2 dinners: baked tortellini and taco rice bake. Everyone (including the toddlers) loved it!
Becky, thank you for leaving the fails in - it makes me feel better about mine. Also, the chaotic feel of this video is making me smile. I feel like this in the kitchen ALL THE TIME.
Any time I have a baking fail, I turn it into a trifle. You an layer cake or brownies with pudding, Cool Whip, chopped Snicker bars, anything you like. Always a win.
Good idea! Or add ice cream, that fixes everything haha
That’s awesome!
Great suggestion. I was thinking of a way to spin what the dessert was.
Wow what a great idea!! Thanks for the tip!
I do the same. Trifle is the gift that keeps giving.
I was a bartender in college, and I was taught to always roll your lemons and limes when juicing. It really works. You get a lot more juice
You can take a slice of bread and put in the brown sugar container and it will soften your brown sugar
I came to say the same thing.
That’s what I use the butt of the bread loves for!
I did too. I keep a piece of bread in my container all the time.
i do that anytime I have a dry item (including when I've overbaked cookies or brownies) - it has SAVED many a batch.
Had to see if anyone had mentioned the bread trick before I did.
Becky... next time you have a bad desert try adding it to your freeze dryer, use it as a topping for ice cream or anything like that. But mostly watching you no matter if it's a fail or a win is always so great because you are real. Thanks for the afternoon's awesome Becky break!❤❤❤
Great idea!
Your mom is so sweet to let you eat all of her peas! Mine would have slapped my hands away.
Becky, Im so proud of you!!! You are doing a great job & you are so loveable. I could never do all you do. I sure am happy to visit with you on these videos & learn all you teach us. Im 75yrs old, so know what im talking about when it comes to the work & energy it takes for you to work so hard. Have a great day, love from your friend. Grandma Katie in Oregon
When you showed the recipe for the blondes, I think it said 1- 1/2 sticks of butter and since you doubled it, you needed 3 and you used 6.
ohhhhh!! I was thinking it waws 1.5 cups of butter..... so I did 3 cups.... That would make sense why it was so liquidy
I came to say the same thing but figured I would check to see if great minds think alike😂
@@AcreHomestead
I came to say the same thing! I was waiting for the captions or voice over to state the oops.
Its butter and sugar- if your going to make a mistake, this is the kind to make😂 just serve with spoons
I recently discovered that I’ve been making my banana bread recipe wrong by doubling the butter, but people always love it and rave about it. Lol!
Becky, I think your Blondie recipe is fine. When you doubled it, you were only supposed to use 2 whole eggs plus 2 yolks, but you added 4 whole eggs. Also, I think you doubled the butter called for PLUS I think if you had let the butter cool just a little (as the recipe said) that would have made some difference as well bc hot, melted butter can really change texture of anything baked. I would try it again bc it looks like a decent blondie recipe.
She’s always too much in a hurry and messes it all up. Common sense is a must in the kitchen.
@@miephoex That's rather harsh & actually untrue. Everyone has different styles of doing things but she's always been honest (watch some of her first videos) about basically being sort of clumsy or accident prone & not the 'best at reading things' so she wings it, like a lot of us do.
Additionally, she doesn't HAVE to show ANY of her 'mistakes' when she edits her shows, but when she does, she usually humbly asks this community for advice and/or tips and for the most part, in a group of almost half a million (we know many are algorithm bots but most are real people) the comments are positive, upbeat and helpful.
As in all of life, if you look for something to despise or complain about, you'll find it. If you look for the good & wholesome, you'll find that, too.
@@mimiashford5544Well said!!!!!! ❤
@@mimiashford5544 I'm very similar, it's trial and error. I need to read the recipe over over...Lolo
@@miephoexSo are Grace and a sense of humor. If you don't like her mistakes, go somewhere else. This world has enough people-bashing and negative feedback. This is a fun, helpful and supportive channel. Your rude comments are neither helpful nor appreciated.
I was always told when cooking with glass pans you need to lower the temperature of your oven 25 degrees. So if it called for 350, you should cook at 325. Same with dark coated pans.
Oh my gosh, all that butter. You didn’t think, “Wow, this seems like a lot of butter. Maybe I better double-check the recipe...”?? So wasteful. ☹️
I hope you try again, because the recipe sounds really yummy.
I love how you roll with the punches Becky! If that was me and my well pump went out I would be frantic and cancel my trip! LOL! I wish I was better at taking things in stride. Hope you had a blast with your friends!! ❤
At least the the house we rented had water lol I ended up sleeping at my parents until we had water back up and running again
@@AcreHomestead You’re so blessed that your parents live close enough! Happy it didn’t stop you from your trip, bet the food was all delicious!
The salted butterscotch blondies from Sally's Baking addiction are 10 out of 10! She never steered me wrong for any dessert recipe, maybe you can give those a try next time. The chicken recipe looked delicious today, I'll try that out soon. I hope you had a good and well deserved vacation time xx
of to search for this lady thanks
Thanks for the recommendation! I thought she was going to link the recipe she's using but often she does not. Did I miss it?
@@leighannf.4730 I didn't see the blondies no, but I think it's because she doesn't recommend it. If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing - or link nothing in this case lol. But the chicken & yogurt sauce, and the salad are linked.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful recipes with us. I love your parents Dr. Jones and Mrs. Susan. I try to watch his vlogs in the morning. You're truly blessed Becky. I've been in the hospital for over a week and your Dad and Mom are very uplifting. Please clean your parents house with all your spills. Have a great vacation friend. Have a blessed and beautiful evening.
I very much second sallys baking addiction!!! Has become my "go to" when I need a baking/dessert recipe!
Becky, I had a bag of brown sugar that was completely a hard rock. I put it into an airtight container and put two slices of white bread in there. After a couple of days my brown sugar was beautiful. ❤
Also quick few seconds in the microwave
I have a Brown Sugar Bear, works wonder and it really cute!
Becky saying “im no expert”😂 we love a humble queen but baby meal prep and relatable everyday homesteading homemakin expert you are indeed ma’am❤ at least to me
I am blind, so it’s so funny to me when people say that they eat with their eyes first. For me, it’s purely the experience and flavor. I cook and bake all the time, and I never considered that people may create certain dishes based off coloring and what is visually appealing. I can understand it for those of you who are sighted. I just find it amusing.
Hey Becky! Tell your mom not to pull and discard her bolted spinach! When bolted, the whole plant, flowers and stems too, are edible when cooked. Great in stirfry or soups/stews! Yummy! ❤😊
I didn't know that. Thanks for the info.
You mentioned using 3 cups of butter or 11/2 cups per recipe. When you showed the recipe, it called for 11/2 sticks of butter (3 sticks doubled, or 11/2 cups total. I hope you had a fabulous time on your weekend getaway!!
I thought it was way too much butter!!!!
Great minds think alike! I just made a cold Israeli couscous salad. I used raw zucchini, radishes, carrots, canned corn, cucumbers, tomatoes, kalamata olives, can of small white beans and feta cheese. Made a Greek dressing to go over top. Delicious!
@debbieorazi2518 I am gonna have to borrow your recipe and make it on my channel. That sounds delicious.
Sounds great!
Regarding your struggle with blondies:
I haven’t made them in decades, but you can just use a tollhouse chocolate chip bar cookie recipe and leave out the chips. That always worked for me.
And if your blondies don’t turn out, you could always try crumbling them and freeze drying them. Might make a nice snack, ice cream topping, etc.
Becky, I love your channel, but word of advice from an old lady...Your life will get just a little bit easier by choosing one size larger bowl than what you "think" you'll need, and save on the time it takes to clean up the little spill messes or transferring to another container. LOL Keep being your honest, authentic self, I appreciate & enjoy all that you do.
You all are so brilliant! I will retry the recipe is the correct amount of butter!
AND eggs! ONE whole egg plus ONE egg yolk.
Hi, I have had great success with Sally's Baking Addiction blondies (actually all her recipes). The one thing that you will have to do differently is how you measure your flour. She uses the spoon and level method. When I cheat and do not do that and just scoop and level that is when I run into issues with her recipes and remember the small extra step can make a huge difference..
Sally has so many winning recipes.
Love Sally’s recipes!!
I’m sooooo inspired to prep meals for the first time in my life!!!!! For real I suck at meal food anything unless someone is holding my hand sooooo this amazing woman is basically holding my hand through any and all meal prep and I think my life is improving 😊❤
I make a Mediterranean salad with the pearl couscous, grape tomatoes, cucumbers, calamata olives, and feta cheese and I will layer them upside down in mason jars. it works out really well and they stay in the jars all week long and hold up super well. I will pickle red onions and add those on top of the salads.
Just a friendly tip on keeping the brown sugar from getting rock hard is to put a slice of bread in the container with it. That has always worked for me.
You can also microwave it and it will soften
Or a slice of apple
If you cut your onion tops, they’ll put more energy into the bulb growth 😊. You’ll also have the yummy onion tops to add to recipes!
Thank you for showing the good & bad. I would think a youtuber would edit out mistakes. But you don't. I love that. Makes us all feel ok about our errors too.
Best part of my day. It's almost 9pm in south africa so watching your videos before I go to bed is the best part for me I go to bed with such inspiration thank you verby much friend! ❤
Our nursery sold these "lettuce bowls" where they had the same varieties of lettuce in them. I have literally been cutting them off at least 10 times since the end of April. First time gardening and was amazed how much salad we got. Plus I can replant in this long oval bowl it came in. The bowl was at least 24" long and held so much. Well worth the $19.99 that I paid for each of them. But what a clever idea.
I LOVE watching you! ❤ I’m 71 years young.
I love your mom's excitement over her garden. Her garden does look amazing!.
Everything looked soooo yummy!!! I love that salad. Might have to try that one!!! Hope you had fun!!!
Your mom is a rock star! I just love how she loves you and her family. You’re blessed. Also, not to mention the delish dishes.
Terrific video! And I love that you were able to bring Mom in on this one. I love the variety of new recipes to learn about. Awesome!! Thank You. ~Sharon from Florida
Love how real you are with your videos I feel like I am cooking alongside you as you talk to us. Love it! This couscous sounds amazing!
Becky, a tip to soften that rock hard brown sugar. Put an apple slice in the package over night and it will be like new in the morning.
Becky you certainly taught me something new about sweet potatoes and I am from Louisiana. I have been used to the orange fleshed sweet potato which the flesh is more moist and sweet. I googled the white sweet potato and found that the flesh is more dry and has a nutty flavor. So learning this I have to find a white sweet potato and try it. Hope you had a wonderful vacation with your lady friends. Thank you for sharing all your wonderful recipes and your flower/veggie gardens.
Fantastic vlog & great to see Mom & her garden! Yummy food! Thanks for sharing! 🤗💗🇨🇦
Everything looks so delicious! Hope you had a wonderful time with friends! Nice to see your beautiful mom and her garden! Her garden looks great!
Becky I just love when your Mom is in the videos too.
Hope you had a fantastic time away, love seeing your mum and her garden looks so good. I cook Pearl Couscous in a stock and it soaks up so much yummy flavor and continues to soak it up after the cooking time. I also put the butter while it is cooking to help it not stick in a clump
It is so nice to have a wonderful/helpful Mama like yours!!!
Thank you to you and your mum for making this blog for all of us . Inspirational ❤
Hello! Becky, I enjoy all your videos. I also use some of your ideas while baking. Thank you for all you do.
Becky, if you want to extract more lemon juice from your lemons, cut off the ends as well as cutting them in 1/2. The lemons squish more.
What a nice turn of events to visit your mom's kitchen. Thanks for sharing.
So nice to see your mom again! Let her know her smile is missed.
Hi there I am a friend from Israel :) If you want you Israeli coscus to taste even better try toasting it in the pan with a bit oil until a little golden and then add your boiling water, it taste better :) also for you not to rinse it under water you shוold put a cup and a quarter of water to every cup of coscus, if you still have a little water just cook it without the lid and stir it
oh my goodness! I will try that next time!
@@AcreHomestead you can also add caramelized onion to it and it is perfect
I'm going to try it, too! Thank you and caramelized onion is divine!
Omg i just refreshed my subscriptions page & here i see my favorite person ever has uploaded! So excited to watch this video! Much love Becky ❣️❣️
Looks yummy!!!! Good to see Susan! She had a great harvest! Blessings 💕💕🤗💕💕 Hugs to you all 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
I always love your Videos with your Mom and Mother in Law.
Send them many greetings and all the best 🙂
Hi Becky, these blondie brownies look yummy. I thoroughly enjoy all of your videos. You keep the real-life events in the kitchen as it should be. My gramma had a great trick to soften back up harden brown sugar. Put a piece of bread in the sugar. It softens it right back up. Living in Medford Oregon for years, she was always dealing with hard sugars. I honestly think this trick came from living during the great depression. Watching you create such amazing dishes, is always inspiring. You keep life real and unapologetic which is exactly why you are so enjoyable to watch. Thank you so much for sharing your life with all of us.
Oh Becky I just love your momma! She is the sweetest, and please tell her I love her shirt she’s wearing. So pretty! Those peas look so delicious
Becky you just keep being you !!! I can't begin to tell you how much you have inspired me and I now allow myself the grace
Perfect, can’t wait to hear about the Pearl Couscous, I just opened and rejarred it! Never made it before! Will try to make something with it this week!
Blonde recipe
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2/3 cup melted butter
2 cups brown sugar
2 eggs
6-12 ounces semi sweet chocolate chips (depends on how much you like them)
Beat eggs, add brown sugar, vanilla, and melted butter cream together. Slowly add dry ingredients (flour, baking soda,, baking powder and salt)
Stir in chocolate chips
Put into a greased 9x13 dish bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes
My mom used to bake these when I was a kid, brings back fond memories.
I know you will get a lot of comments and recipes, and hopefully, you will give this one a try.
I have been following you since your first video. You are very real and I admire that.
Yay!! thank you!!
Hi Becky I work in a school kitchen here in the UK and the children definitely eat with there eyes. Love your videos
Oh my, your Mom’s garden is Beautiful, what a harvest!
Nice blog Becky! Nice to see your mom as well! You’re such a light! 🙏🏽❤️ Your dishes always make me hungry! That salad and chicken looked incredible! 🤤
I all looks good. growing up in a family of 8 children my mom would mix up the toll house cookie recipe and then put the dough in a baking dish. There were great. To keep brown sugar soft, I use the brown sugar bear - I purchased them on Amazon 2 in a pk for 7.99. They work great for the brown sugar and also to put in the cookie jar to keep cookies soft. I also put a plastic wrap on top of the brown sugar in the storage container, helps to minimize the air that dries it out. Hope you had a great vacation
Hi! I love your channel! So nice of your mom to let you use her kitchen. Hey, quick tip for the rock hard brown sugar. Place a slice of bread in the container, and by tomorrow it will be soft and usable! Just a little tip my husband actually taught me years ago! I didn't believe him, but I tried it and it worked like magic! 😊
have a great girl's out of town weekend! everything looks delicious. travel mercies and blessings. 🕊
Hey Becky! So sorry to hear that your well pump went out, that's never a fun experience. Very glad that you were able to get it fixed so quickly. Thanks for another great video! ❤❤
Last year I made my own roasted garlic powder! I roasted home grown garlic (without oil, just dry) and blended into a puree. Then I freeze dried it. I made a small batch to try. And I will deffinatly be doing LOTS this year, it was amazing. I also roasted some red bell peppers and freeze dried them and once dried I blended into a powder. A amazing seasoning :)
Your Mom is a ray of sunshine. I’m kind of guilty of being a little glad you had to finish your work at her place. Her garden is perfect! Just amazing. I don’t know if it’s my connection but the talking didn’t line up LOL so it was especially strange when the butter spilled. 😂🎉 looks so delicious. I’m so glad you all got a break / vaca away.
Same with the video/audio...
I agree about her mom. I've said before that I wish she would start her own channel! She's said it isn't going to happen, unfortunately.
Your freeze dried seasonings work out so well !! Always making some good food!! 😀😀😀
Everything looked so good. Nice to see your Mom.
Here is my tried and true recipe Blondie recipe:
1-1/2 cups packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter, melted
2 large eggs, lightly beaten, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
In a large bowl, combine the brown sugar, butter, eggs and vanilla just until blended. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; add to brown sugar mixture. Stir in chocolate chips.
Spread into a greased 13x9-in. baking pan. Bake at 350° until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 18-20 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
Ty I’ll be trying this recipe!
Hi Becky. So much fun to share my experience from when I worked in a organic garden. The yams are also a sweet potato only a different sort. There are also purple sweet potatoes. 😋
I hope you had a lovely weekend away with your friends. Your meals sound delicious! Cheers from 🇨🇦Calgary, Alberta🇨🇦
Every Penzie spice ive ever bought has been FABULOUS!! Kosher Flake salt is my fav, cinnamon, granulated garlic, etc!!!
I love Israeli couscous! I agree with you though, lots of color makes a much more appealing salad. Your mom's harvest is delightful!
My favorite blondie recipe is from Joy of Cooking. I have the 1975 edition. They call them "Butterscotch Brownies" in Joy of Cooking. Super duper easy recipe - and it's one pan! I sometimes add extras like grated coconut, but the recipe itself needs nothing extra.
I love watching your videos!!! Have a Great time away & be safe.. Enjoy your time, food, drink’s friends and family.!!
I love your mom's kitchen 😊
The nutmeg, allspice, and cardamom make sense for a Mediterranean style chicken. I have had Greek lasagna that was seasoned with cinnamon and it adds a whole different world of flavor.
It's basically a Shawarma marinade. The cardamom is really essential.
One of my co-workers told me about the shawarma chicken. I really need to try it out on my channel.
Dear Becky, In a world where everything can be so depressing, watching you is such an unexpected joy. You have a gift for bringing laughter to a tried soul. I thank Jesus for you, Becky. Bless you.
I agree.....and beautifully said.
Hey Becky! Really enjoyed this video. I loved your mom's garden! When she brought in the bowl of greens I said WOW! That's where you get your green thumb, lol. Hope your time away was restful and you enjoyed yourself!
Many blessings...
The food looks amazing hope you had a fab vacation with your friends. your mom is wonderful and all that fresh homegrown produce. xxx
Hi Becky! Absolutely love hanging out with you in the kitchen. I think what you have is a yam. Sweet potatoes are orange. Both look super similar before peeling!
Those Guittard chocolate chips are THE BEST chocolate chips. America's Text Kitchen did a study and found it to be so and I agree. :)
For dressing i love it with apple cider vinegar, oregano, a little bit of mustard,one clove of garlic..so good
Thanks for sharing.
I hope you had a wonderful trip.
The Smitten Kitchen blondies (and upgraded with brown butter) are my go-to. Anything by Sally's Baking Addiction is also a guaranteed success :).
I made your caramel sauce and it turned out great. I used maple syrup instead of the corn syrup and no crystalization. Thank you for those wonderful instructions.
I absolutely love your channel and your butter incident! I'm always making memories along with my messes! So fun!
Great way to spend a Sunday !!❤
