I always can't wait for your videos each week. They're varied, interesting, and peaceful. You are a constant source of inspiration, in every way!!
I saw a hint to push a pool noodle under the front of the couch/sofa to stop things from rolling underneath.
I meant to add in my earlier comment, I use vintage ashtrays to hold water while painting an art project. The slots are perfect to hold a paintbrush.
Oh I love that idea
I made your sandwich bread without a breadmaker. You just put the ingridients into the mixer, knead for a few minutes. Divide the dough into three pieces and let it rise in a greased loafpan for 30 min. Preheat the oven with a bowl of water to 425°F. Bake for 5 min at 425°F, reduce the heat to 350°F and bake for 40 min.
Awesome!! Thanks for sharing
What size loaf pan?
@@annw1395 I had to calculate, since I usually use the metric system :). My loaf pan is approx. 9 x 5 x 3 inches. Hope that helps.
Your thrift stores carry some great items.
I make English muffins a lot and the dough is supposed to be quite shaggy. That is what makes the nooks and crannies. It is more of a batter. One of my cookbooks even says to shape them with wet hands rather than using a cutter. Yours look perfect 👩🍳
I agree I have made them Holding my breath thinking I don't know about them but they do turn to just fine.
Kudos to you for preserving with the English muffins. They looked delish!❤
Agree. I know recipes have you shape/pour the batter into greased rounds or open tuna fish cans. That makes sense.
Okay, good to know!!
That’s good to know. I was told the longer you let them ride the more nooks and crannies
I always save up a whole bunch of videos from this channel and then I just zone out and get to watch them and relax. I run a full business. I have very little time to myself anymore. I adore this channel.
3 teenagers= I'm off the hook for breakfast AND lunch! 😆 No one gets up at the same time, no one eats the same things, and not everyone even eats breakfast. It used to drive me crazy because i used to have breakfast ready for them, and i used to make everyone the same thing for lunch, but i guess this works, too.
Yes but what about 2nd dinner?
We've ventured into that territory already with kids getting older and wanting to sleep in as well as a toddler who's almost always up first, but I do TRY to get them to all sit together in the morning so we can do our devotional time. Luckily we're all used to eating breakfast a little later so it works out most of the time
What an amazing woman you are! So organized. You make it all look so easy. Even to me, this senior, you inspire me!
Those English muffins were impressive! Thanks for sharing. Idk why, but I like watching you make meals. You are a natural. I’ve been here since Evey was a baby, so I’ve seen you consistently hone this life skill. Having said that, my cooking skills have not grown at all. Just something I don’t enjoy, but I enjoy watching others who do😊
I've found you either enjoy cleaning or cooking, and while I'd say I'm more of the former, cooking is a necessary part of life and we enjoy good food so I might as well try to enjoy it as well!
I heard interior designers say that the “couch pad” is the new plastic covering our parents had in the 50s
😂
ohmystars!! 😆
I had never heard of a couch pad till now and that is exactly what I was thinking. 😊 The couch all covered to preserve it.
You always have the nicest thrift hauls. Your videos are very relaxing to watch and look forward to our weekly visit.
Thanks so much for being here!
I just love when one of your videos pops up! You seem to just have so much peace and organization through your life. I know you work very hard.
They’re very encouraging and I thank you. 💕Nancy
I admire your gumption in wanting to make your own English muffins. But here's a tip.Aldi's makes some great ones! Add them to your online order. :)
Yummy English muffins!
I love to make tuna pasta salad in the summer. Ice cold from the fridge, it's a refreshing lunch or supper!
My SIL used to send me my nephew's clothes when he outgrew them When my son turned around 6 I noticed she was sending lots of tops but hardly any pants. She told me the pants all had torn knees so my supply dried up. Now people buy them that way.
Love how you are very frugal and smart. Videos like this will help large families, even when you utilize EBT, there are healthy options. Such options allow families to stretch their subsidized income. Have a blessed 4th. Hope to see you at the Cape this summer.
Regarding your English muffins: sometimes a recipe doesn't turn out as written and/or the way you think. But you need to be resilient and persevere, as you said. It's happened to me, and we still eat it! Once a recipe/dish disappointed me but still turned out very tasty, and my family asked me what is this recipe??? I said, Mom's Surprise! LOL!
You should be able to make the bread in the oven with no problem. Just use the bread machine to mix the dough and a first rise. I do this all the time because the recipe I have makes 1 loaf and 12 buns or 2 loaves. I actually prefer it this way. I bake at 350 until golden brown on top.
So excited to see your vlog today. I love watching you go about your day. Everything from the grocery haul to cleaning under the sofa was enjoyable. Have a blessed 4th, dear friend!🎆❤
The English muffins look delicious.
Clever idea of the wood 'spacer" blocks behind the coach legs 😊
Your english muffins looked so good.
Enjoy your 4th of July 🎆
Take care 🌼
Happy 4th!
@@OldWorldHome Thank you. We just celebrated Canada 🇨🇦 Day!
Your videos bring me so much Joy! 🎉cannot wait for holidays
With all that tuna you could make some tuna cakes which are similar to crab cakes! Pretty yummy!
Or tuna melts. Yum.
I’m laughing about the butter knife under the couch. I have little ones and recently found my silicone pastry brush in the front yard 🤣
Lisa (Farm House on Boone) has an excellent English muffin recipe.
I look forward to your videos Every week and find that I rewatch because I enjoy them so much.
Thank you so much for watching!
You certainly can use the bread machine recipe in the oven or even divide it to make rolls. It’s very versatile. Do you still have your sour dough starter? I noticed you mostly make yeast breads now.
I do have it, but yes our sandwich bread I do yeast, the kids prefer the texture. Honestly yes I’ve gotten out of the habit of having my sourdough ready to use when I’m ready to bake, but I’m sure I’ll get back into it 💛
Of course my favorite things are the perfectly adorable “Finn” shirts!!
I love your thrift hauls. You are a true inspiration.
Agree, always my favorite
Commenting to show support as I always try and do, because you are my fav channel. Loved the thrift finds.😍
The English muffins looked awesome to me 😊 Thanks for a great video.
Your English muffins came out beautifully in the end.
I love going thrifting…even if I don’t find anything…it’s always so fun!
❤lifeatthenutthouse
I have made English muffins a few times. What works best for me id to put the dough in the fridge for a few minutes to get cold before you roll it to cut. I also recommend using cornmeal to place on the bottom of the cookie sheet when rising the English muffins before cooking. Turning down the heat and cooking them for about 4 minutes on each side works great every time.
As always, I enjoyed the video. Thank you for another relatable content that anyone can appreciate.
Hi Hilary. I just have to say that you inspire me in every video you make! ❤
I love that both you and your husband are so frugal. I am too and love buying pre-loved items. However, my husband is so against buying used clothes and shoes for our kids. He grew up poor and worn a lot of hand-me-downs and stuff from yard sales and thrift stores. We’ve worked so hard especially him to get to where we are and still frugal. But he said when it comes to our kids, that’s where he’ll draw the line and want things brand new for them 😔 Kids outgrow their clothes so quickly and I hate paying for regular prices.
Everyone has their own preferences. Like you said, kids outgrow things so quickly and once they wear a new item once, it's used right? I have found such lovely high quality items secondhand!
@@OldWorldHome oh I have too. I think my husband associates thrifting for kids’ clothes as a reminder of financial struggles when he was a kid. He still remembers and talks about how embarrassed he was to show up at a classmate’s house to buy his old clothes at their yard sale. So when we had kids, he’s always put his foot down on this matter and I just let it go. We are frugal in other ways but not when it comes to our kids’ clothes. Although I thrift for their winter coats bc they hardly wear those things except when we have snow. I don’t like paying $40+ on something that will only be worn once or twice since we don’t get a lot of snow where we live. I love thrifting like you do especially for household items.
I love the idea of using wood blocks behind the sofa and your meals look delicious.
Enjoyed as always! Loved the thrift haul, the snippets of your style throughout, and all the food you shared looked delightful!
Restless Chipotle on Pinterest has an English Muffin bread recipe.. it is a gloopy dough just like how your dough turned out-- except it is made in a loaf pan.. They are delicious! 😊
Dinner and the muffins looks delicious, Hilary ❤
hey girl- love the video!😊 Great haul👍 yummy food- the english muffins do look amazing- good job🤗 🥰
Terrific thrift hall and I’m glad those English muffins turned out OK
Im laughing with you about your english muffins because I've had the same exact experience! Great job persevering!:)
Thanks for sharing Hilary!
Always love your content.Enjoyable videos. I haven't tried making english muffins. Yours turned out looking great; in spite of the sticky problems.
English muffins looks delicious 😊❤️
Thank you, Hilary! 🌺
Great job on the English muffins. They looked very good.
Good morning! What a darling video, thank you!! I will be trying the egg bites and if I get a bit of extra time, the English muffins! It looks like fun...sort of, haha!! Have a great 4th and see you next week!! :)
I hope you and your sweet family have a Happy 4th of July !
Same to yours!
So nice to watch your home making videos!!
I just love your videos English muffins are my faves but not sure I would have ever try to make them your so good at baking😊
Me encantan tus videos. Saludos desde Buenos Aires, Argentina
I so enjoy your thrift hauls.
I just love your thrifting videos…. ❤
I have the same mini food processor, it’s the best
Happy 4th ❤️🇺🇸💙
You inspire all new moms ❤😊
You find such great things thrift shopping! Your bread looks great! And the muffins looked awesome! Lesson, I suppose would be to stick with things, don't give up. Happy Independence Day, Hilary and Dan and Kids! Enjoy the holiday🇺🇸
Morning Hillary!
Hilary, your particular dinner reminds me to thank you! I was so inspired by your honey soy chicken that I started making a slightly varied version and it's one of our favorites. ❤
Enjoy!!
HAPPY TUESDAY IN JULY Hillary, family, and fur baby Finn. All the motivation. HAPPY 4TH OF JULY. Enjoy your week. STTB
Glancing through the comments. The audience reflects the hostess. Many like minded in your community. Encouraging! Today’s video, another to refer to when asking “what would Hilary do?”
Thank you again for a lovely video. I look forward to them every week. Those English muffin sandwiches look so delicious! Happy 4th of July week. God bless and protect you and your lovely family.
God bless you and yours!
You made some really good deals at the thrift store! ❤
I use Windex on sticky price labels, so perhaps Windex or clear vinegar sprayed on sticker on shirt, then washshirt and hang up to dry...so hot dryer doesnt set the glue.
Overnight Breakfast in the Crockpot: all assembled the night prior in crockpot, turn on Low, wake up to yummy smells! It is a CrockPot Overnight Oats...recipes all over the internet...BUT you have to use the Steel Cut Oats -- not instant! milk, cinnamon, vanilla, water, raisins, apples... great timesaver! Some use bananas in it too...then put chopped pecans over, just before serving.
Good morning! I should start planning my breakfast the night before 😅
I loved seeing the sticky dough, lol. OMGosh, that happens to me so many times and it ends up everywhere before I can get my hands clean. The end result is ugly but tasty as I'm sure your english muffins were. Gosh, the thrift haul was awesome. I love anything and everything nautical and you scored. Good video sweetie. Happy 4th to y'all. xoxTXDeb
Great thrift haul. Enjoy all of your videos. Also what color are the walls in your living room and kitchen. I like the slight contrast of the walls and trim. Also trim color. Thanks
Thanks for being here! Walls are SW Anew Gray, trim is the same in the living room, and the white I think is BM Simply White matched to Behr
Thank you. Hope your 4th of July was wonderful. 🎉
Hand sanitizer works great getting rid of sticker residue! ❤
Happy Independence Day
To you and your family…
Enjoyed your peaceful vlog as always..
Try Lisa Bass’ sourdough English muffin recipe…
I’ve made mistakes with it such as burning the bottoms before inside was done, and my dough being too sticky…but they are delicious…when successful…lol
Yummy
Goo gone works great on stickers that have gone through the laundry.
I just found a bread maker!! I’m excited to try making my own bread as well, hopefully your recipe is a hit 🥳🤞🏻
Oh you are going to love it! My favorite is actually the dough cycle because I can make so many varieties and then finish them in the oven. I even do this with our bread because we prefer the traditional loaf shape. But the bread baked in it is delicious also! 😊
Let me know how it goes!!
I think the dough over proofed. I had that happen before and used flour to get it through. The bread I was making tasted good but it was hard to work with.
Hope you have a wonderful and a very blessed 4th of July you and your family God bless you see you in your next video
Enjoyed 😅
Wow! I love those egg bites, I'd like to try them as a dinner side, just because Italian breakfast are all about sweet food, milk/capouccino/espresso with croissant, biscuits/jam/Nutella on toast ecc ecc. Do you have a more detailed recipe? ❤ EDIT I've seen the recipe in the description box, thanks ❤
Hi! Great video. Is the blue and white coffee pot a french press? May i ask where you purchased it please? Thank you.
Yes! Originally from Amazon, but I noticed recently it was unavailable, but I know Macy's also carries it. The brand is Spode
Hi Hilary! What type of bread machine are you using? I'm sure you've mentioned it before but I couldn't recall in which video. Think I may try my hand at homemade bread. Always look forward to your weekly videos. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much for being here! Mine is an Oster
🔴⚪🔵 I always love your videos! 💛
I love your videos….Just so peaceful and relaxing to watch! Random question…..what is the square footage of your home?
Thank you for being here! It’s about 1,600 sqft including our finished basement
Where did you get that couch pad?
It was an online shop called wconcept, found it on Pinterest 🤎
Please share if you get the sticker residue off! Our church also does stickers and I did the same thing to one of my son’s shirts 😅🥲
Use Dawn dish soap or Castile soap, let it soak for a while and then rub off the sticky residue...or use Goo Gone.
Those bites look amazing. What kind of blender/ food processor do you use? I have cuisinart big and small but I am looking for something that I do dry as well. Love your baking skills...always so perfect . The English muffins still look so good..
We have a little Ninja food processor/blender but I also have a Cuisinart food processor that works similarly! I use the latter more for dry mixing, like pie crusts
@@OldWorldHome Thank you
Ice will take off sticker residue.... I'm seasoned on nametag stickers going through the wash lol.
I'll have to try that!
can you tell me how much yeast you put in the bread please. and thank you. I don't see it in the recipe.
Sorry, I just added it now! I use 1 1/4 tsp, or half a packet
Where did you get that couch pad? Did you make it?
No I bought it from an online shop that I found on Pinterest, it was called wconcept
I see the bread recipe in the description but could you please add the instructions with it? Or a video on just how you make the bread? I would really love to try it. Also I saw another commenter asking about how much yeast to put it as it’s not listed in the video?
Oops I forgot to mention the yeast, I'll add that. Basically you put the water, salt, butter, oil, and honey in the bread machine, top with the flour and wheat gluten, make a well and pour in the yeast, and press start :)
@@OldWorldHome thank you 🙏🏻
How often do you grocery shop? Wondering how long this haul will last for a family of 6. Thanks! 💞
We do a big shop like this every two weeks, but often have to supplement with fruit, eggs, sometimes milk in between those two weeks
Dawn Powerwash gets off the name tag residue. 😊
Are you still considering planting a vegetable garden in your backyard, with raised beds, etc.? Then you would always have lettuce on hand! Lol! ... do you have deer though, that would come and nibble on everything, and would you have to put up screening for wild rabbits, deer, etc.? Residue on Swim Shirt: you could get your daughter to hand sew, a patch over the residue area!
Yes, it has been a goal for many years, and maybe one day we'll make it happen, but we haven't put in the effort to get the infrastructure in place yet. Like you mentioned, we'd need fencing and it's a bigger project we haven't tackled yet. We have potted cherry tomatoes, and a few things in our little garden plot, so we're just keeping it simple this year.
Book recommendation: NONE OF THIS IS TRUE by Lisa Jewell. Right up your alley.
Read it, liked it!
I’ve never baked with wheat gluten. Does it replace the yeast? I noticed there was no yeast in the bread.
Wheat gluten helps it raise a bit more, but does NOT replace yeast.
Sorry I forgot to add the yeast to the recipe! Just added it now. Vital wheat gluten is found in bread flour, so if you're using all purpose flour I find it necessary to add the wheat gluten. Then you add 1 1/4 tsp yeast, or about half a packet
@@OldWorldHome no worries sweetie! I’m actually a fairly proficient baker but have never used the wheat gluten. I’m excited to try the recipe.
❤🕊️
I made English muffins using the recipe on the TH-cam channel, Whippoorwill Holler and they turned out great. She has some wonderful recipes on her channel.
Hilary, a huge thank you for uploading this video a day early, due to the holiday weekend. It actually came at a PERFECT time for me. Today, could possibly be a bit a bittersweet day and spending thist time iwth you, definitely elevates some of that stress. English Muffins... Our Gabled Home has a wonderful pool proof recipe,. it has been my " go to" for a while now.
For the sticker residue, soak the area with Dawn dish soap or Castile soap (full strength) and then rub off the residue. Or you can also use Goo Gone. Our church uses the stickers too and I put a few shirts through the wash with them when my daughter was little.
