Hey FreeGang 🤗Check out the time we cooked EVERYTHING in a TOASTER for 24hrs th-cam.com/video/8ktKi5QEMy0/w-d-xo.html
This video is amazing I would of never thought to cook with candles well done love it
Glad you liked it Sam!! 😃
Your family is so amazing I love learning the new things you guys get up to you help us so much Bye doing your video 😊
Thank you so much Leanne 😊 We appreciate your lovely kind words 💚
Cooking with candles is so much fun :)
Great video never thought it would actually work but you made it look easy
Thanks Jenny 💚🤗
Scramble looks lush. I normally use the firm one but I might try this one as I have two in the fridge. Happy Saturday xxx ❤
I have never tried the firm one for making scramble, I will give that a go 😄
Happy Saturday to you too beautiful soul 💚
CHALLENGE 24hour camp fire cooking on wild camp trip no electric no gas no bbqs, only natural camp fire at a camp site that has camp fire areas that are safe and not during a dry season, can also use the camp fire to boil water to fill hot water bottles to keep warm if it’s cold and to dry clothes and stuff on an airer but not to close
Good idea
That sounds like an awesome idea! Thank you :)
Wow you guys are amazing
Ikr
Aww thank you so much Majella 💚🤗
Well done Katie that was amazing, always a Joy to watch your videos ❤ look forward to see you soon guys ❤
Ah what a great idea I have never seen a TH-cam video on this before I have also started college this week . 😲❤
Thanks Chloe :) How was your first week at collage? We hope it went well 🙂💚
It was actually really good was a bit nervous at first though ❤
I now have a back up plan if were saving on money😂😂😂. Use moms candles!!!
😂😂😂
🤣 This was so much fun to watch. Greetings from Monterey Bay, California! 🐚🦦🐬🌊
Wow that’s such a great idea , if the power goes off and ur without cooking facility’s u can still cook ur family a meal ! I love it
Absolutely!! So glad you liked the video Leanne 💚😊💚
This was so much fun to watch but I want to let you know that because of seeing this a while back now, when my power went out for the whole weekend last weekend I couldn't have been more grateful to have seen this!!
I headed out to the shops when I got up on Saturday morning noticing that my power was out, and knowing I couldn't get in touch with my property manager until Monday, but had this up my sleeve thanks to you guys doing it and showing us, thanks so much!!
Where most people would be getting takeaway and spending loads more I went to buy a bunch of tealight candles and then went back home, knowing with confidence that because I'd seen Katie do it so successfully I could make myself dinner and other food for the weekend, all because I'd got some trusty candles!!
I made zucchini "cheesy" rice which did take well over an hour to make, but I did "fry" off the zucchini slices first before adding the rest of the ingredients to the pot. I figured rice grains would take longer but were a similar concept to cooking oats, and wanted something satisfying and filling. Like you said though, putting a lid on did make quite a difference!!
I will say strangely though, even with putting a lid on, I couldn't get water to a rolling boil in order to have a good cup of tea, the water got hot and steamy and there were small to medium sized bubbles at the bottom of the milk pot (chose this to boil the water thinking it had a spout for easy pouring) but I couldn't get the water to boil well enough??
I still drank the tea happily though, sitting amongst pretty glowing candles in my lounge room and feeling very successful all the same, knowing I had a hot cup to hold on a very cold night to warm up my hands, and that was good enough for me! I too am very resourceful and don't often take the easy way out, always wanting to find a solution! Thanks! :)
Ah thank you so much for sharing this! It was so awesome to read how you took what we did in this video and implemented it into an actual situation where it was needed - it's so cool! Well done you for being so resourceful over that entire weekend!! 👌
Katie & Bob are mad cooking food with candles( Katie I think is the one that is the maddest between the 2 of you). Another excellent food challenge and I am sure if anyone can do this it would be mad Katie. Love 🥰 the video and love 💞 Family Freedom.
You are absolutely right David 😂 Sending big love to Scotland! Are you getting lots of sun like we are at the moment? 🌤🌤🌤
@@FamilyFreedom Yes, it has been with the exception of Wednesday it has been sunny 🌞 every day since Saturday.
You two are so funny,food looks amazing 😋🤤
Thank you 🤗 Awesome account name btw 🙌 😀
@@FamilyFreedom 😆Thanks
Family Freedom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FreeGang! Yay!!! Commenting to you #LIVEbutNOTLIVE from South Carolina, USA (East Coast). Speaking of shining; You guys make everyday brighter. Thank you so much for being so active on TH-cam as of late. Me likey! And remember, wherever you go... there you are! LOL... AND #jUSTkEEPrISING!
Thank you so much for your lovely kind words as always Christie! You are awesome 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Just keep rising 💚
Hahaha! Another great video, thanks Katie for trying out this idea so we don't have to, that's unless our electric goes out for longer than 20 min and we're starving hungry or need to make a hot drink!! 😁👏🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️☕🧇🍔🥙🍛🥗🌱🎉
Good point Fiona! We hadn't thought about that, but yeah a hot drink too ☕☕☕☕☕
*Well,this deserves to Trend and become Viral as it’s an extraordinary video 🔥🙌👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻*
We completely agree with you 💯🤗 knowing how to cook with candles could be a good resource for people💚
@@FamilyFreedom absolutely- you have proven this- I’m genuinely amazed this is possible. Brilliant guys 💟👌🙌
Very interesting idea! Cant wait to see more food videos. ❤
You guys are so kind and caring.
Never seen anything like this or anything similar. Really cool idea.
Thanks so much Alice! 😊
My favourite type of vids you make, lovely after a long busy day to chill and watch ❤
So glad you like them Catrin 💚🤗
We thought of doing this for fun but judging by the introduction err maybe not😂❤
😂Cooking with candles was way better than Bob thought it would be, it shouldn't have doubted me :)))
@@FamilyFreedomwe should never doubt your cooking skills Katie, ive learnt a lot watching you guys👍
Aw you're lovely Carol 💚
Wow. Well done. When I saw the video I didn't know what to expect but you pulled it of with perfection. ❤
Wow, thank you for your lovely comment Lindsay 😊 We hope you and your little one are doing well 💚🤗
@@FamilyFreedom we are ok thanks you. Struggling with teething some days and this heat isn't fun for a baby either. But we did our weekly swim lesson which helped to reset us both. X
Can’t wait to watch this video hope you guys have a great day ❤
Have a great day too 🤗
What a great video! Never seen this done before or anything similar!! Very interesting how you got around using candles to cook with candles. This is a good idea to save money on electricity and power too! I always liked the taste of campfire food maybe it’s the way it cooks or it’s just our minds?
#freegang #livebutnotlive
Thank you so much Milly, we've never seen anything like it either 😂 It was a lot of fun cooking with candles, everyone should keep a bunch of candles in case of a power cut especially when we have proved you can cook with them too 🙂
We would love to cook everything on a campfire for 24hrs (even longer 😂)
💚💚💚
Wow this is a great video guys and as Katie says a great idea If we have a power cut and the burgers looked amazing
So glad you enjoyed the video 💚
Seriously i cannot believe this? I feeel like wen you challenge Katie she can success in anything she does literally soo well such a legend and does well ...
I think Bob needs to do a challenged blog🙈was shocked with this but hey guess it is just like cooking on a gas hob soo well done. Great to watch and great way to save electric :p hehe #LiveButNotLive From Cornwall 🥰🥰 #LoveYouGuys ❤sending loves to you allll ❤keep up the great work and great content and the great vibes❤❤xxx
Aww thank you so much for your lovely kind words as always Lisa. We really enjoyed this food challenge, it was a real eyeopener and made us realise what a good resource candles are!!
Ps WE LOVE CORNWALL 💚💚💚💚
That was good, well done Katie! 👍
Thank you!! 😁
Amazing video we really enjoyed this fun challenge.
All the food sounds delicious really happy that you all enjoyed it. 😊💚🌱🥰
Thank you 🤗
@@FamilyFreedom No problem at all 😊💚🌱🥰
This was such a good idea! Awesome 😄
Thank you Nancy!! 😊
Coming live but not love from somewhere different for once😂 not my bath tub.... am in benidorm 🎉 catching up on all the TH-cam videos xx
Hey Jamie Leigh 👋 Sounds very nice ⛱️ We hope you're having a great time there 😊
What a fab idea! Maybe you could use this as a back up in the van when you want too cook with more than one hob!
Thank you Amy, that's such a great idea 👌😊🙌💚😄👏
Well done love this video
Thank you so much Dawn 💚🤗
I love your videos so much I hope you are having a good day ❤❤❤:)
Aw thank you so much 🤗 We hope you're having a good day too :)
Really impressive another good video
Thanks so much Elizabeth 😊 Glad you enjoyed it 💚
No end to your talents Katie,ye of little faith bob thinking it wouldn’t work ,what did you say we no bob Katie did it all 😮brilliant great idea.👏👏👏👏👏💞🩷💙
Thank you so much Chrissy 💚🤗 You're awesome 💙
This is such a good idea you can save soo much money from not using your cooker and oven
Hi family freedom hope you are well and having a good day! Great video! I was doubting you like bob ngl😂 why dont u try only cooking stuff on a bbq😂
Dont talk about the mustard😭😂 still has me baffled where it has gone in ikea😂 im on my second bottle of tomato sauce from ikea😂
No mention of pot noodles and chips in this video😂 as far as im aware😂
Take care
Just keep rising 💚🌻🌿
Hi Lana hope you're well and having a good day too 💚 Thats a great idea, bbq food is delicious 😋
I know Lana!!! We need to start a petition to get the Ikea mustard back 😂😂😂
Good point, we could have totally cooked a pot noodle with candles, not sure about the chips though (maybe I could find a way) 😂
Take care too 🙂
JUST KEEP RISING 💚🌻🌿
@@FamilyFreedom I'll sign the petition 😂
Toast, and waffles can each be done like a hot dog, on the flame. :)
What a creative challenge! Well done!
Thank you so much 😊💚
Katie your creativity always blows my mind! The only thing I could think of when I read the title was someone last year I know bought a wax melt burner but used it to melt chocolate for strawberries! 😂 I think we all need a Katie Cookbook! Like seriously!
Also tofu scramble makes an amazing breakfast burrito! 👌🏻
Hey Shauna! Thanks for your kind words, we're glad you liked the video! 😃
Ooh using the candles to melt chocolate could have helped make a tasty dessert! 😋
We'll look into the cookbook idea for sure, we'd love to be able to offer something like that to you all - would it be specifically candle cooking though? 🤔
@@FamilyFreedom why would you limit Katie’s talents by only showing one of our creative ways of cooking! I want all the creative cooking 😂👌🏻
Live but not live from warm Cheltenham. 😎 I love these videos! 👍
Thanks Angie, we're so glad you love them 💚💚💚💚
this is good for Hurricane season! I already have those small camping stoves that I have to put fire underneath. This pro for this one is that I can cook inside! (just gotta supervise it) gonna keep this in mind!
Good stuff! So glad the video has helped you in some way 💚😊
Hi all that was very good Kate ,maybe 48hr camp with candles .
Great idea!! 🤗
OMG I have just found you guys and am binge watching your videos. You are amazing, I love your energy. Your videos are the best. Here in Bath Somerset we don't have Home Bargains, Asda, Iceland or Farmfoods.. Bristol is nearest and we don't drive. We do online shopping which can be a headache as you have to spend £40 before they will deliver (then delivery on top) I love Iceland, once again they closed our branch down, can order from Iceland which is great. Sorry I am waffling but I think supermarkets should lower the amount you have to spend before they deliver, it would help out so many families xx
Hi, welcome to our channel! We hope you have been enjoying the videos that you have seen so far 😊
Can we just say that we absolutely LOVE Bath! We visited your beautiful city last year and had a wonderful time! 👍
We couldn't agree more about the cost of delivery, it must be very frustrating for families who are trying to save money.
Sending all our love 💚
Just looked up cooking with candles some one made a stew 😆. Im thinking to try making my sweet potatoe and carrot soup.good saving tips
Sweet potato and carrot soup 😋 That sounds delicious! Let us know how you get on with your candle cooking 🕯️😄💚
@FamilyFreedom I just made large batch on cooker lol.but end of year will try.think the secret is to make sure the water is boiling ,over the tea lights.i would allso chop in tiny pieces.allso keep an eye on it.have a nice weekend xx
I would love to sée jojo Cook for a Day or bob Cook a Day ans i love your familly you guys are Amazing
Great idea Abby 👌😊 Thank you 💚
@@FamilyFreedom you are so so inspiring and i love watching you xx
Just started watching your videos love them lovely family xx
Thank you for your kind words Jodie and welcome to our channel 💚😊
I had the Linda McCartney burgers lovely also tried a vegan royal burger from burger king the other day yummy 😊 imange the money you could save cooking with candles xx
Love to see you make a Sunday roast on candle hobs.
That sounds like a challenge, we really enjoyed cooking with candles 😄
You should blend food in a blended
Katie you are very clever, where there is a will there is a way and you proved that. 🤗 well done and great meals. I remember a very bad hurricane we had, this has been a long while ago but I lost power for 2 whole weeks. It was the worst. I was lucky I had a gas stove that I could light and cook some small things but no frig or anything else.
Hey Karen, we're glad that you liked this. Your comments never fail to make us smile! 😊 2 weeks! That's a long time to be without power, glad you found a way to get through it. Sending all our love beautiful soul 💚
@@FamilyFreedom Thank you, I'm so glad to hear that and likewise. Yes our whole state was dealing with it, no place to go but we all came together and got through it. 🤗
Thanks for sharing your challenge the only concern issue is you got to watching out with glasses top stoves some are know to break the top if something to hot on it had a friend do that just concerns but coddle on what Katie cooked looks delicious take care stay safe like a campfire challenge and Just keep rising 💚👆
Hey Tammie, thank you for your lovely comment 👍
Maybe next time we'll put a tray underneath the candles to help protect the glass 😊
Keep rising 😃
@@FamilyFreedom your very welcome and enjoy your day 💚👆
Well done looks great ,probably have to cook like this in third world countries not with candles though
When you say kids don't try this at home, I think you should also say this includes Abbie!! Despite being a fully grown adult. 😂 My lighter is one that charges by wire... My luck would be that it would run out of charge in the power cut. That would be a bit ironic, wouldn't it?
I did a bit of a resourceful thing the other day because it was my birthday on Sunday. And I didn't have candles for the cake so me and my friend lit my big candles and put them around the cake. 😅 The problem was eloped a bit like a shrine for me 😂 I have a 4 letre bottle of ketchup. I feel like you guys need it
Happy belated birthday Abbie 🎉🎉🎉 We hope you had a wonderful day 🎈
That's very resourceful of you and totally the sort of thing I would have done 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@FamilyFreedom Thank you! It was a great day! 🎉🎉 And hahaha glad I'm not the only one!
Make homemade vegan ice cream as its hot too at the moment wonder how easy it would be to make ice cream i had a procedure today and biopsy so in alot pain but love wathing you guys you have such great humor remind me of my mum and dad im 34 and really close to them bob so funny too hope jojo keeping well and enjoying his lego too loved his titanic one wondee if he will do another big build hes very clever with that
Great idea Holly 🍦🍦🍦
Freeze some fruit and then blend it and yiuve got delicious icecream.
Mango is great turns into a creamy sorbet
Banana make a creamy icecream bade to and yiu can add whatever you wish, like dates, berries, cacoa, vanilla etc etc.
I am blown away by Katies 💡
They are incredible. There's always the doubt but then Bob totally agrees.
How about a mud/clay over using wood like they do in Pakistan etc.
Lovely tomatoes btw. Do you still make your own compost?
Hey Aka, thanks for you comment 😊
Yes all of our food waste goes into our compost which we tend to weekly and have used for growing new food 😊
@@FamilyFreedom brilliant 👏 👌 👍
How about a challenge for bob .he has to cook a three course meal on a tight budget with no help
Thank you, that's a great idea 🙂
I love your family and video's... I would still love to see you do a daily dozen Dr Greger.. or routine video where you do chores and what you eat in a normale day or what you do at home for fun alone without sreens... Lots of love Joyce and Andrew from The Netherlands.
Hey Joyce and Andrew, we hope you're both doing well 💚 thank you for your suggestions, maybe we could figure out a way to include some of these elements in some future home vlogs :) Sending all our love to the Netherlands 💚💚💚
@@FamilyFreedom thanx sending lots of love back....
Raw vegan for a day challenge!
Hi Family Freedom how are you all ❤
Hi William 👋We are so good! How are you? :)
Great vid😊
Thanks 😁
Great video guys it was my birthday on Monday
Happy birthday for Monday John 🎁🎉🎂🎈🍰 We hope you had a wonderful day and you are enjoying your birthday week 🤗
@@FamilyFreedomThank you so much I had a great birthday
Hi Chloe
Its raining here in idaho
You could have sun tea or cold brew coffee. For an experiment we made an aluminum foil sun cooker. It was tedious keeping it oriented, but it's good to know how to use one if one has no electricity (or gas in our situation)
I never like the soggy middle bread in a MacDonald's burger. The crispy waffle actually is promising
We can't use candles in our home. I am on oxygen and our home would explode. Maybe the entire neighborhood too!
So glad you're conscious about that Kay 🙂 🙌 Sending much love 💚
Please upload my requested video of Katie with Jojo
Cooking with candles 🕯️🕯️🕯️
Where can i buy date sugar please katie? Xx
Hey Cassie 💚 I got it from Buy whole foods online, it's the organic one 😊
@@FamilyFreedom thank you xx
Wow now jojo have hair grown too fast
Live but not live from mission b.c. canada
Hey 👋😄💚🇨🇦
*What is date sugar? -Katarina*
Hi Katarina 💚 It is dried dates that have been ground down to sugar 😊
@@FamilyFreedom Thank you😍 I might try that♡
24 hours in. Bathroom
Sorry wouldn't be tempted to any of that food sorry glad you enjoyed.
That's ok, we all have different tastes when it comes to food 🤗
Hello guy’s, you can actually heat a room with those candles and a terracotta plant pot and a few coins. There are a few TH-cam videos on this subject. I always keep candles in my house. I love the atmosphere when sitting in a room lit with candles. Not the scented ones.

Thanks for the tip Ange! Candles are so handy. We'll have to try making a heater in the winter 👌😊
