I didn't know how poor we were until we received the food basket for Thanksgiving from our church. My parents never told us just how bad off we were. My mother always had a way to make things seem good.
Thank you! I just love your content. I’ve been there, trying to find a way to make a holiday special with only a few dollars. What I love about your videos are that you’re so real about it. Two free oranges! I’ve done that too. So creative. And real. Happy Thanksgiving from my family to yours! I’m helping support my local food bank, and I hope everyone that can help this year, chooses to. ❤
@@kimtanner7437 Girrrl! What is this $9.99 business!?! You did not have to send that! I am going to put it aside for my potential new grandma or a Christmas present for someone in need!
@ 😂 Girlll I know I didn’t need to send it! Consider it an early Xmas present for yourself, your family, or someone else’s family. I trust you to find a good use for it. It’s just my way of spreading a little love. And hopefully helping your TH-cam channel ranking in the process! ❤️
Glad to see you back! You can check with your local food bank or churches for elderly that need assistance. Also, check with the local VA as there are many disabled and elderly veterans that need assistance.
I just had you appear on my feed. Now I am going to follow you.Hubby is 65 and so am I. We are retired and have 5 kitties. We only have 1 insider. We are on a tight budget. We go to a few food pantries monthly.This is such a blessing from the good Lord. ✝️ . We always pray over each bag or box 📦 🙏 thanking God for our food. Food we can't use goes to other friends in need. God bless you and your family. God bless all here ❤ ✝️ ❤ Happy Thanksgiving 🍂 🎃 🦃
I'm a senior and everyone is on a budget. This was an excellent meal for an excellent price. I help family members who are on hard times so trust me any tip I can get to muster up a meal, I'll take it. It great that there are people like yourself that think of giving there time to help others. I've want to see more so I'm subscribing for that reason. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family...and your four legged extended family.
Yay! I am glad to have you! I grew up pretty poor with just my mom (actually my grandma, who took me in at 55 years old. She worked full-time and never received any assistance for me. There were times this would have been all we had. But, regardless of what you eat it is the memory made that is important!
❤ A great option could be canned Turkey or a rotisserie and stuffing chicken casserole. Or just the rotisserie chicken instead of Turkey. In CA several food banks give a thanks giving meal for families in need too.
Another great video friend!!!! I am so happy to see your face. That was a great video and what a wonderful way to show others that a meal can be made even when we have very little.
I eat whatever im served & dont complain. Ive been in 3rd world country where food wasnt widely available. The ppl wouldn't sell me what lil food they had. So i went wo for 3 days. I dont take what i have for granted anymore.
Maybe even the food bank. Some of them take the food to shut ins. If you have food for Thanksgiving then you are doing better than some people. When my son was a baby we had $15. We bought baby food and formula. We are hot dogs all week. Sometimes you do what you have to. So glad you are back.
Call your local churches. They may need help with shut ins, the elderly and new moms. All those groups usually need help with meals. You could try local womans shelters too.
As to finding someone to cook for, contact your local senior center where they do house visits, meals on wheels and other activities for seniors. My center has a department that supplies things seniors in need need. Call them and they will help you. Also check your local churches. They might know people in need.
Try agency on aging or meals on wheels or other social services to see if they have elderly people on wait lists. Could also post on local sites seeing if anyone would be interested.
It was! Someone else mentioned it and I was excited because I could not for the life of me remember who or where I saw it. But I loved her heart from the few minutes I saw. I watched her all during nap time today! She is a wonderful soul!
@FrugalPants maybe go to the closet to you or just go to Walmart. You always see sad and poor looking people there. Pray and God will lead you. 🙏 I may need to do something like this when I'm able. Been at the hospital for over a week with my 82 yr old mom who fell and broke her femur in 2 places plus a guy I call my adopted son had back surgery on Friday and I promised to cook and take him some meals to help his mom out. Plus I'm looking at another ankle surgery to remove a bone they missed on one of the other 4 they did. It may be 6 months before I can start but I'm going to keep this in my heart
They did last year. My husband's company also gives everyone a voucher for a turkey. This was just an example of what someone could do if they didn't have an oven and only a few dollars.
Her name on utube is Dollar Tree Dinners and I watch her she is amazing! She makes the individual meals takes to an elderly lady, and she does low cost meals for holidays and everyday eating! I love these meals you are all creating for folks❤ such great ideas!!❤🎉
We prepare Thanksgiving meals for many of the elderly and infirm people on this island and try to make sure everyone gets a good meal with leftovers! Neighbours need to look out for each other. And have fun.
Every time I hear someone say something like this, I hear it in Charlie Browns voice, lol. Anyway, she didn't make it because she doesn't like it. But those muffins could easily be made into stuffing, or just grab a box. Easy enough.
Not quite a balanced meal. Heavy on carbs (corn, potatoes and cornbread) with sodium (ham and gravy), but I understand it's hard to get kids to eat some items. Maybe a green veg or two? But, I have to admit, I wouldn't turn the meal down.
Well, hopefully you have more to feed your family. It wasn't supposed to be a gourmet meal. It was just an idea of what someone could do if they didn't have an oven and only a few dollars.
I didn't know how poor we were until we received the food basket for Thanksgiving from our church. My parents never told us just how bad off we were. My mother always had a way to make things seem good.
Im so GLAD YOUR BACK!!!! I kept watching, worrying, and hoping you would be back. So nice to see your unorganized, organization again 😊

You could go to your local Senior Center and ask them if someone is in need of help with meals. Thank you this video is so real life. I love it.❤

I think you are talking about Rebecca from Dollar Tree Dinners. She’s awesome!

Great video. I love helping people also

The video yesterday was fine glad to see you back Happy Thanksgiving 🦃
Dang girl, you had me worried. Glad you are back!
@@annetterose8948 💜💜💜
The person you were speaking about is Rebecca at Dollar Tree Dinners
I would check at the senior center to see if they know if someone.
Missed you are lot. I checked every day then I worried...love Gramma Sue
Just found you!!! You are absolutely great!!!!
Good to see you ❤😊
It was probably Dollar Tree Dinners who cooks for an elderly person in her community. You should message her.
It was! Someone else mentioned it and I was excited because I could not for the life of me remember who or where I saw it. But I loved her heart from the few minutes I saw. I watched her all during nap time today! She is a wonderful soul!
❤
More videos!!!
Check with your local churches
@@craftsbeautyandlife5163 I thought about that but being in Utah.... I look out the window and wouldn't know which one of the 30 to pick 🤣🤣

You could turn the into a KFC bowl
Ham for the chicken
Hi Your back . Where have you been
Your food pantry doesn't give you a free turkey or ham? Most do to the best of my knowledge.
They did last year. My husband's company also gives everyone a voucher for a turkey.
This was just an example of what someone could do if they didn't have an oven and only a few dollars.

love Rebecca channel ❤️ ❤❤❤
@@tracieschrock9519me too she is amazing lady!!❤
Rebecca is a marvel
Thank you! I saw it one night when I couldn't sleep and I can't find her! But I loved her heart!

It's called Dollar tree dinners and it is Rebecca that you are talking about. That's the kind of content that she does.
Where is the stuffing Thanksgiving isn't Thanksgiving without stuffing
She mentioned in yesterday’s video that she doesn’t care for it. I agree though, there has to be stuffing.
Every time I hear someone say something like this, I hear it in Charlie Browns voice, lol.
Anyway, she didn't make it because she doesn't like it. But those muffins could easily be made into stuffing, or just grab a box. Easy enough.
Not quite a balanced meal. Heavy on carbs (corn, potatoes and cornbread) with sodium (ham and gravy), but I understand it's hard to get kids to eat some items. Maybe a green veg or two? But, I have to admit, I wouldn't turn the meal down.
My kids eat veggies and fruit with every meal. This was just an example of what someone could do if they only had a microwave and a very small budget.
No thanks! That thanksgiving meal sucks
Well, hopefully you have more to feed your family. It wasn't supposed to be a gourmet meal. It was just an idea of what someone could do if they didn't have an oven and only a few dollars.
@@FrugalPantsI thank God for every humble crumb.
You blessed spoiled brat!
Them muffins aren't very good
Just quit with negative stuff already..Just don't watch it!!!!
