I'm going to try to have the next video released on Friday March 8th at 7 pm Eastern. Please turn on your notifications so you don't miss it! See you then!!!
I’m always so jealous of the items you get from your food pantry! I was released by my doctor to return to work last week, so I won’t qualify to go to my food pantry anymore. I’m so incredibly thankful for the food assistance they provided over the past 3 months while I was on short term disability. I’m also thankful my thyroid labs are normal again! Enjoy the rest of your week!
I love the way you presented your meals,on a nice plate, not eating it out of the plastic container, it makes the food look like you worked all day preparing it. Not something from the food bank.😊❤
All food looks yummy. I like to put feta cheese and macaroni and cheese. It’s really good and salad and any type of fruit and feta cheese goes good with walnuts if you have any blessings have a good week.😉😋
Lil tip.....if your salad looks like its on its way out and you want to preserve it. Pick out the wilted pieces then take a paper towel and layer in between salad then store in a Ziploc press all the air out. It lasts for weeks. If you heat the balsamic vinegar for awhile it becomes thick and sweet. Great addition to strawberries ❤. Video was lovely 🌹 thanks for sharing 😀.
Thank you for your suggestion! Ziploc baggies are so useful. I want to eat more salads as we approach Spring this month. It's Salad Season! Neat suggestion on heating the balsamic vinegar, thank you. I hope you have a great night!
You had a wonderful healthy food pantry haul. I'm happy you drank the Boom Juice. I see many people drinking it but no one ever says how it tastes. Enjoy your food. Enjoy the beautiful weather and shinny sunshine. Enjoy your week! 🌞
The food pantry had wonderful options, so glad to get the food. The juice powder was too sweet for me. That's an extra bonus at the food pantry is trying things I might not have on my own. I hope you are getting some nice weather, too. Have a great week!
Sarah, I watched this video 4 times and I never seen what was under the yellow towel, did I miss it?? You got a great haul from the food pantry too. Thanks so much for sharing!!
Thank you! The food pantry had a lot of wonderful items to choose from. I'm glad to put together a variety of meals, that's always fun to do! Have a great week!
I didn't know that about glass and fruit . I mean, I should have assumed because of how fresh it keeps other food . So thanks for that bit of information
It's a great way to save space in the fridge! Sometimes I need smaller containers. A subscriber made the glass and fruit recommendation. So far it's working out well!
I have to say I don't like eating really sweet things (eg. grapes) and savoury things together. I never have ever since I was a child and it's way too late to change my ways at my age as I'm a senior. The one exception is strawberries with balsamic vinegar (sweet & sour). Choux pastry (used to make eclairs) was invented by Pantanelli, the head chef of Catherine de Medici of Florence, after moving to France in 1540. I trained as a chef in my late 20s and making pastries was one of my favourites. It's easy to make.😄❤
Hi Lois! That's a clever idea to use it as a standing desk, I like that. It's so interesting the things people bring to the dump. Nice they set stuff to the side!
Also, I'm glad that I'm not the only one who donates packs where I took a packet or two out and donated the rest of the individually wrapped ones. If I did;t like it or if it is close to Best Buy and I want someone else to have it that may want it. Also, I would get that laundry detergent every time it was offered to me not sure if you do because that is one of the more pricey items at the store for sure
YOu always give me good stuff to look for at the grocery store. Espcially the ukrops stuff. I haven't gotten much of that since the Ukrops grocery stores have closed and I think now there are things I should try like that wrap and the chicken salad and the bbq pork when I'm at Food lion or Kroger.
Hello from Oregon Sarah, Thank you for showing how things are always good just pick threw. Living is very hard and thanks to you we will be better then we have. Hug's 💞
Thank you very much! Sometimes food has spoiled, but that's okay, I just let it go. I've had lots of luck with the food pantry salads. I hope you have a wonderful day and glad you are here!
Hi Sarah. The turkey and meatloaf looked so good. Your food pantry is amazing. Great selection of food. Have a wonderful week. Hi Mr Turtle. 👋 from Perth😊
love watching all your videos, you have such different food items to the things we have here in the UK. you always make such delicious looking meals. have a great week xxx❤
Hi Tink! One little yogurt is almost $4, wow, I had no idea! You got a real deal there for 99 cents. That's almost 75% off retail! Have a great day, Tink!
I scored a jug of All brand scent free laundry liquid laundry soap AND a pound of Starbucks ground coffee this week! Also two small packages of sugar free sugar cookies! Im so happy!
I love those fancy yogruts in the crocks. I save the crocks too. But they are for sure a treat I am glad that you were able to find something like that.
The fancy yogurt was great! I was happy to get it. I like to pick up refrigerated ready-to-eat items but am extra cautious in case something smells or looks "off". I did have to throw out the cottage cheese because it was spoiled. I guess it was not refrigerated properly at some point along the way!
@@CareFreeLivingChannel aww i get tthat. Heavy cream is a great one to pick up. I litterally just finished a container the other day where it was best by february 18th and it was still good on March 3 I don't know how often it ends up there. but snag that for sure.
@@CareFreeLivingChannel THEY MAKE great planters, the containers. I used to have one on my dresser that I kept ponytail holders. Not sure about these but I know if you ever get any of the Oui yogurt glass cups, amazon and a few other sites sell lids that fit on those.
I think the first flower is a johnny jump up. But it could be wrong. Or it could be a violet. I'm thinking it might be a violet. In aclaire came from France. It was named something else to begin with, according to the internet. I believe that was a portable desk.
My Mom and I love your hauls.You always pick out some great healthy foods.Just curious if you ever get sick from anything?We get food from the food bank but I’m always hesitant to take fridge or freezer items so we usually stick to canned goods,boxed, fruits and veggies.
Thank you very much! Good question. I have not gotten sick from any of the food. Sometimes I get food that was on it's way out, and it spoiled before I could eat it. Other times, food was not refrigerated properly at some point and it turned. I always smell the food before I eat it, if it smells "off", I let it go. I use the "when in doubt, throw it out" to make the best decisions I can!
It was a desk or you can use it as a breakfast in bed tray. YOu can put your book or your tablet propped up on it with that wooden thing if in use or use it to eat and have your paper or book or remotes or whatever in the slots on the side. or even snacks lol
It happens! Often the prepared meals are on their way out. The cottage cheese I thought would be good, but it was spoiled, too. The lentil soup was great! I enjoyed adding the meatloaf to it. It was yummy!

Thank you! I enjoy putting a plate together. It makes eating a meal so much nicer that way!
Yes the eclair is French and my goodness it looks SCRUMPTIOUS 😍
The eclair was as tasty as it was pretty!
It’s always so nice to see you’ve posted a video, Sarah ! Thank you for bringing peace and comfort into all of our lives ❤🙏🙂

I'm happy to hear you enjoy the shopping! It's fun to see what the food pantry has, every week is a little different. Thank you for watching my video!
I really like how you film clips in your food bank to show their different offerings. Keep up the good work on your videos.

It's a very cute lamp! I really like it, too! Interesting objects bring me joy.
Hi Sarah, another great haul for you. Your salads always look wonderful. The eclair looked delicious. Hope you have a wonderful week.
Thank you! I enjoy getting salads. The eclair was wonderful, I enjoyed it! Have a great week, too!
The thing at the dump is for sitting over you while in bed. A bed table, basically. Used to eat off of or for your laptop and such. ❤
Oh! Thank you for letting me know! I wish I had room for it, that would be fun to put on the bed and make pretty.
Let's see
Enjoy the video!

Eclairs are a french dessert yes ma'am made from a dough call Pate a choux or shoe dough. It's also used to make cream puffs and stuff like that.
It was so good, sweet but not too sweet!
Hi Sarah,
Great haul! Everything looked great. Enjoy your week!
Thank you so much! I'm glad to have all these food pantry meals. I hope you have a great week, too!
I made a plate this week with added pepper. I had to sing your jingle. Lol
The pepper song! It makes cooking fun!

I love strawberries, too! Thank you for this information, it's interesting to learn the history behind food. I appreciate you watching my video!
I enjoyed watching. How you prepped, organized, and do a taste test on foods you picked. Nice.
Thank you for watching my video! The food was great!
That was a very nice lap desk. To use while sitting or sitting your laptop on. I had one but broke the tip. They are wonderful and so expensive
Hi Lois! That's a clever idea to use it as a standing desk, I like that. It's so interesting the things people bring to the dump. Nice they set stuff to the side!
Hi dear love your videos always have bless day
Thank you! Have a wonderful day!
You get the best hauls! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you! The food pantry is a blessing and I'm happy to have access to it!

Oh yes! I like the detergent at the food pantry. I'll have to share my closet one day. I have one closet in my home, and I put the detergent in there!
YOu always give me good stuff to look for at the grocery store. Espcially the ukrops stuff. I haven't gotten much of that since the Ukrops grocery stores have closed and I think now there are things I should try like that wrap and the chicken salad and the bbq pork when I'm at Food lion or Kroger.
Their items are so good! The chicken salad is great!

I love your videos. Your voice is so calming. Best meal for me was the meatloaf in the vegetable soup.
Thank you very much! That meatloaf was so good and tasted great in the soup. I liked it!
The quiche was my favorite meal. However all of them look so delicious!
The quiche is wonderful! And it fits the air fryer perfect. Can't wait to make more meals!
Thanks Sarah, I really enjoyed watching ❤
Thank you for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed my video. Have a great day!
Thats a score! Love the way u redid your pantry shelves.
Thank you! So many goodies from the food pantry, glad to have access to it!
I love balsamic and strawberries if you can get your hands on some fresh basil to pair what that plate, it's awesome and a little of black pepper.
I'll have to try the black pepper on it! With Spring coming up, maybe the basil plant will come back to life.
@@CareFreeLivingChannel ooh I hope it does fresh basil is so good.
@@SillyMeKimmieG I hope so too on the basil!
Excellent video!
Thank you very much! I am happy you enjoyed it!
Wowwwwww amazing great finds!!! Woo hoo!!!

When you get rid of the lettuce stalks it reminds me of my former husband who called them "lettuce bones" 😄
Ha, ha! I love vegetables but pick thru the salads so I can enjoy it more!

Great food pantry haul. That was a lap top desk. I love the quiche! Hi Mr. Turtle!
That would be fun to have, a laptop desk! The quiche was great. Mr. Turtle says hello!
I’d love it if you say what you left in the mini fridge before you go into the haul. That would b cool
Thank you for your suggestion!
Your welcome. Your videos give me inspiration to use what we have in the house instead of spending more money.
I'm glad to hear it! Using what's available at home is a big money saver!
Great video Sarah! All your meals looked delightful! My favorite was your first 🥗 salad and the fancy yogurt too! 😊
Thank you so much! The salad was really good. The yogurt was great, I'd get that again if I can!
I loved it all.
Thank you very much!
Great video ! Love that yogurt I bought it at discount store for 99 cents.wegmens sells it for 3.50 my daughter said ~ Tink
Hi Tink! One little yogurt is almost $4, wow, I had no idea! You got a real deal there for 99 cents. That's almost 75% off retail! Have a great day, Tink!

All your food choices looked delicious. I would never have thought to put meatloaf in soup! Lol! Have a wonderful week Sarah!
Hi Chris! The meatloaf was great in the soup. I was surprised! I hope you have a great week, Chris!
I drink the bloom every nite for my digestion....it really helps!!!
That's good to know it works! Thank you.
Super haul! Happy eating!

Hi Sarah! 👋🏻 Very enjoyable video! 😀👍🏼👍🏼
Hi Judy! Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it! Have a great week, Judy.
Thanks!
Thank you so much for the Super Thanks! I appreciate it!
Deseret farms is owned by the lds, they are into preparing. We've gotten some of their canned soups at my food rescue before.
Their products are so good! Preparing is important to consider and work towards. I have a beef stew by Dessert Farms and it's super good!
the purple flower is henbit aka ground ivy its a herb and the blue and white is Creeping Blue Speedwell
Thank you so much, it's good to know what the flowers are called. I hope it takes over and covers the ground more! Love the color.
Nice haul! That yogurt is delicious 😋
Thank you! Yes, the yogurt was fantastic. I love how it's packaged.
I scored a jug of All brand scent free laundry liquid laundry soap AND a pound of Starbucks ground coffee this week! Also two small packages of sugar free sugar cookies! Im so happy!
That's great! I'm glad you got some wonderful items! I like scent free detergent, too. Wow Starbucks coffee is a super item to get, yay for coffee!

Another good haul 😊 Why don't you sell your mini fridge and buy a larger fridge?
Thank you! I want to use my mini-fridge until it runs it's course and get the most out of it that I can. I will upgrade one day!
Too bad the turkey was spoiled 😢, but the Lentil soup looked fantastic.
It happens! Often the prepared meals are on their way out. The cottage cheese I thought would be good, but it was spoiled, too. The lentil soup was great! I enjoyed adding the meatloaf to it. It was yummy!
who films you walking around? I'm curious how this is done.
Thanks for your question. That would be my man helping me film! Thank you for watching my video tonight.
Do you have a freezer
Yes, the mini-fridge has a mini-freezer!
does it have live bacteria? If you have an instant pot you can make live yogurt
Good idea! I don't know if the yogurt had live bacteria. But will look out for it in the future!
@@CareFreeLivingChannel live bacteria helps me digest milk
When the appearance it looks like they take pride in their food pantry doesn't look like they just threw it in some box and handed it to you
They set it up like a little grocery store. It's very nice. I'm very happy to shop at the food pantry!
