    I had tears in my eyes watching the JOY in sweet Joe’s face when he opened his box. He was so excited! What a joy he is and I can’t thank you enough for always sharing him with us. He is one of the best things about your channel. ❤️

      Joe is my favorite too. It was so nice seeing him open his box. He's such a fun guy!

      Thank you for draining and rinsing your canned vegetables. Rinsing them takes away some of the salt and makes them taste less like canned.

    It does my heart good to see you took my suggestion about a kid pick box for Joe.
    When I made the suggestion I had noticed how sad he looked when the other 2 received theirs.
    The absolute joy on his face is priceless

    I just had to comment about Joe and how far he's come since I started watching your channel. It's a testament to you, both as a teacher and a mom. He's a lucky young man to have such a loving family. The best to you and your lovely family.

    Sugar cookie hack, roll dough out using powdered sugar instead of flour. They don't get tough because you aren't adding extra flour in. No worries about how many times you need to roll and cut out cookies.

    • @acountrylife

      That’s a fabulous tip!! I hope I can remember it next time I roll out dough.

    I love how Peter enjoys baking and cooking! My 18 and 11 yr old when I ask them to help they give me that "are you kidding me look" they would rather be out under the hood of a car. My 30 yr old is a chef at a resort in Northern Ontario and his cuisine is amazing a lot of game food but when he comes home he doesn't go near the stove. He wants mom or nana to cook...home cooking goodness is what he calls it.

    My grandmother's sugar cookie recipe uses sour cream. It is the favorite of now 5 generations. And yes tradition taught us to not just keep scraps separate but also store separately.

    Baking soda, being added to buttermilk, yogurt or sour cream - produces carbon dioxide gas bubbles and that will cause the batter or dough to rise.

    When I was a girl (I'm pushing 80) my mother made sour cream lemon cookies. They looked similar to your sugar cookies, but were a lovely light yellow. She didn't ice them, but she may have added sugar to the tops. They were my favorite cookie. Thanks for the memory. It was a great idea the fill the box for Joe yourself. I've often enjoyed unboxing clips, but this one was one of the best!

    In my experience the recipes on the back of the package are usually the best ones and showcase the ingredient. Companies aren’t going to put a bad or bland recipe on their package; only the best! My favorite tapioca recipe is off of Bobs Red Mill large pearl tapicoa, it’s amazing!

    My aunts sugar cookie recipe has sour cream in it but it’s not my family’s preferred recipe. My husband says they don’t have enough flavor and need frosting. I enjoy a crispy sugar cookie simply rolled in sugar before baking.
    I also grew up watching my grandmother separate the dough by 1st, 2nd, & 3rd rolling.
