You have no idea what a BREATH OF FRESH AIR you both are to so many. GA/AL border here. Like the no politics, happy attitude and positive at all angles. Thank you.
We got a bunch of different used stuff because dad worked at city dump. It was always nice when he took me with him. I found a metal doll house in great shape.
Thank you Jason and Brooke. I am so excited because I have packages arriving to my house from my mom for Christmas and I know its full of Cog Hill Farm goodies!!! I just sent my mom back some simplymakingit Goat Soap! :) You'all have changed my life for the more joyful and better. Thank you for your love and your spirits. My time with you on these videos is my bit of heaven on earth.
Funny joke about Piggly Wiggly. I grew up in South TX with Piggly Wiggly grocery stores. Then, a new family-run grocery store chain sprung up called HEB (founder's initials; Howard E. Butt). The joke was HEB bought out Piggly Wiggly...what was the new store called...Wiggly Butt!!! 🤣🤣🤣
I'm in Phoenix, AZ low this morning was 47 High was 76 on Wed 12/4. We just paid $9.99 for 5 dozen cage-free at Sam's Club so we got a total of 10 dozen. They have a limit of 2 boxes per customer. My daddy worked at Piggly Wiggly when he was in high school in Waterloo, Iowa about 80 years ago. TFS! Blessings to you my friend. Have a blessed week. ✝🙏🏼💕
The best thing t remember about the Piggly Wiggly we shopped at when I was growing up was the green stamps! Mama would let me help chose what we were going to redeem the stamps for. Of course it was my job to tick the stamps in the book!
I have a Raggedy Ann that my mom made for me and my baby sister. I still have it now and I'm so glad I do . We lost my mom a couple months ago and when I see it all these wonderful memories come flooding back. She was so crafty an avid sewer, knitter, crocheter and needlepoint. I remember just sitting and watching her create these beautiful things.
That was THE BEST live that I've ever watched y'all do!! I've been watching every episode since the day that Jessie came to the farm from AFH, but that live was SO fun! I'm 58, and loved remembering all the toys and games. I mean, who could forget the excitement of PONG?! Sending love from KY...thanks for the memories!!
Oh my, but this was a fun one! I had Creepy Crawlers, Tinker Toys, Breyer Horses, Cooties, a Tonka dump truck, stick horses (about one a year), a sock monkey,
🎄 I loved hearing about your childhood toys. Laughing because I could picture every toy. I am 72 and I remember getting a Chatty Cathy doll for Christmas. I loved my baby dolls, they had a unique smell. I had snuck downstairs and “sniffed” the presents. I found her and pulled the string to make her talk ~ not a smart thing to do at 2 am. My Dad yelled at me to GET BACK TO BED! My Mom came to my rescue and allowed me to bring her to my bed BUT I had to keep her quiet 🤫 😂. I loved my Spirograph too…. Colorforms was another favorite. Thanks for reminiscing…put a smile on my face. 🎄
Hope you see this. Jason, your kids' video was amazing. It is great for the kids to learn about the farm animals. You are inspiring a whole new generation.❤
I really really liked your video/podcast today. Reminiscing Christmas past and the good ol’ toys. Was so much fun. And Jason’s laughing made my day. You all are such good people.
Just wait until winter sets in in Arizona. I was a snowbird who went to Arizona for winters for 30+ years. In fact this is our first winter home & enjoying it. Winter in Arizona can be very cold. We’ve even had snow there but it does not stay. It gets cold, rainy, windy that chill you to the bones. It still was warmer than where I live in Canada & I’m going to miss it.😊
At one time there were Piggly Wiggly stores in Canada. In 1935, all 179 Canadian Piggly Wiggly were also sold to the Canadian Safeway division, which merged with Sobeys in 2013.
My friend’s son came for Thanksgiving from New York to California. They thought he had food poisoning and he went to the emergency room because he was so sick. It spread to everyone around them and they are all really sick. They had the stomach flu. Emergency gave him IV, morphine, anti nausea medication
Watching replay. Love 5:56 y'all and been a constant watcher for a few years now. Yall were still down at the first Cog Hill Farm, and Mary Carl was just a little whipper snapper. Im on the weather struggle bus, from way down in the southwest corner of New Mexico, been in the mid 60s to low 70s here. Similar to AZ. Little town called TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES..no kidding..cant make this stuff up. Just wanted to say Hi..usually dont comment much..but God Bless y'all ❤
@16:10...BROOKE...!!!😂😂😂 I almost spit out my hot chocolate! What a belly laugh!!! Thanks, Brooke... A good laugh ALWAYS makes a person a little bit lighter...😁💜
I'm many years older than you and Brooke but I do remember getting many of these toys for my children who are about your age. Fun trip down memory lane. Terrific live...thank you!🤗
Where I live in Western Australia I pay up to $10 a dozen. However, I prefer to pay that for eggs than crap food. My son will come home from school crack an egg mix it up a bit then put it in the Jaffle maker (sometimes with bread so it becomes an egg sandwich) and puts some grated cheese ontop. Sometimes he adds diced bacon or ham as well. Much better than a bag of chips.
My daughter graduated high school in 1981. She had to have one of those fancy calculators. Not sure why. But she had a part time job. I was a single mom of 5. I think hers was a Texas Instrument.
Western Oklahoma had a Piggly Wiggly's back in the 80's and 90's, I worked there keeping the floors swept and helping people carry there groceries to there car..
Hi from western North Carolina. Please pray for the people affected by Helene. Many people still do not have shelter and it is cold. Had snow in many areas last night.
When I moved to the Philippines fifteen years ago, I gave "no snow" as one of the reasons why I wanted to move. They asked, "What will you do if it snows there?" I answered, "I will be laughing at you because you will be under 1,000 feet of ice in the US." Here on Cebu, it is in the 70's every night and in the 80's every day. Eggs are about $3.20 USD per dozen here on Cebu.
Thank you for an enjoyable hour. My jaw hurts from smiling so much! Your stories about older toys/games really took me back to fun memories. I love the connection between you two. Thank you for all the work you put into these videos. God bless you! Vickie from WA state where it was 29 degrees last night
My neighbor sells her organic free range eggs for 8 dollars a dozen and has for years and has a waiting list for her eggs, I watch her animals while she is on Vacation and she pays me in eggs for helping her. I would do it for free but I appreciate the farm raised eggs
@@jbs454 unbelievable we have a free ranch flock of beautiful hens, we feed 22 percent protein and crack corn, they are on 2 acres to hunt and peck on. We sell our beautiful eggs for 2.50 a doz.
My father in law got stung by a honey bee and he said it helped with the pain in his elbow he also used WD-40 rubbed in and said that helped ease the pain
I also remember driving through Arizona in many feet of snow. Through flagstaff the icicles hanging off buildings were as big around as a man. This was Dec 1967. 2 or 3 years we went to Holbrook, Az in January and the heater went out in the car, my mother in law told me the next day that my lips had been blue. 😳😱🥶
Spokane, WASHINGTON got up to a high of 34 degrees, a low of 25 to30 tonight? ❤ I finally got enough coat layers on today to be mostly comfortable. Prayers for health and safety!🙏❤️🙏
I caught a wild river rock and tamed it. I loved my pet rock! LoL Rockem Sockem Robots ad said, "You knocked my block off!" LMAO I got a pony and cowboy outfit in 1968. I don't know how Santa managed THAT! I loved my Dancerina dancing ballerina doll!
Loved my hot wheel city. Would build my legos around it to maximize it. Would play for hours. Every time went to Kmart I’d sit in the hot wheel section and I’d get one if I didn’t bother my mom and sisters shopping. Had an Atari 400.
My grandmother raised bees, and naturally got stung from time to time. She said she would put some honey on the sting, and that helped. Natural antibiotic in honey.
The toys my brother and I had were Slinky, Silly Putty, Chinese Checkers, Chatty Cathy, metal Tonka Trucks, a Topo Gigo doll, and Barbie, Ken and Skipper dolls (they didn't bend),. My bike was a Huffy Camaro.
I'm 73. When I was a kid we had a Piggly Wiggly in a suburb of Minneapolis, Minnesota. They've been gone a long, long time but I remember Mom taking us there for groceries for many years. :)
Watched your live and got a call towards the end, so just watching again!! Just thinking how people are going to need eggs for baking during the holidays!! Too funny, Brooke got Lester!! I think we had pretty cool presents, not a lot. Remember the wood logs to build cabins/houses. Tonka trucks were all metal and rubber tires!! First Atari with pingpong!! Wasn't there a rockin sockem boxer game? I loved the old light Brite! Operation was fun too, you would think we were really doing surgery! Did you have pick up sticks? Remember Simon says too! What about those hockey games. They had puppets, dog on a stick. Battle ship was great. Now, kids want Lego sets and technology, phones, high price! It use to be fun to actually go shopping! My kids loved their big wheels! Brooke was being hot wheel momma, Lol! What were those fancy foot scooters? So much fun stuff, kept us busy!!
You asking about Christmas presents reminded me about my poor sons 5th Christmas. He wanted a Tomahawk Chopper bike (not sure if they are called that in the US) and come Christmas morning not much enthusiasm. So over to visit his granny and he kept grizzling. So of course granny said let him stay with us for the night. Well anyway long story short poor boy had Mumps. So, much to his delight, he ended up in granny's for the holidays. We live outside the village and they were in the middle of everything, close to his friends so he had a great time when the worst was over. x
OMG, reminiscing about the old school toys! So many mentioned that I had forgotten about. We used to have die-cast cap guns (revolver style) and my sister & I would play Charlie's Angels with the other girls in the neighborhood, posing like the silhouette from the TV show and pretending to talk to Charlie, fighting over who got to play Jill (Farrah Fawcett). No one would get away with playing with toy guns today...EEK!! Wow, major memory unlocked.
I remember sliding down hills in the snow as a child with toboggans or a steering wheel sled. Or see who could jump the longest with ski. All the kids in the neighborhood had the most fun in the wintertime.
I caught the latter part of the live. Now I’m watching what I missed. I remember visiting my daughter and grands in New Port Richey, FL, just north of Tampa in January one year and the temp was in the 20’s. Brr.. I told her I could have stayed home in Oregon for that. But she and the kids weren’t there.
Red light therapy for any pain and immunity issues. LUME Box is amazing. Just got one 1/2 off for my 50th from my family!!! If you could avoid cortisone shots, you should. Temporary relief with long term side effects and make your joint worse as you age. I know I have had 4, 2 in each shoulder. Prayers for health and healing. Try the Lume Box♥️
Pleasant day here in Mesa Az. The dry heat is easier to do with summer temps. But low humidity causes for dry skin and not that dewy southern belle complexion. 😊
I know i am rewatching this but you all are the same age as my son and the toys you are remembering are the toys i bought for him . he also had the TI99 4A
My mother told me an old family recipe for bee stings. Tobacco. You chew the tobacco and put it on the bee stings. It’s supposed to draw out the stinger
Jason, I’ve had tennis elbow only once in my life and it lasted five weeks and then the last week somebody told me to wrap it in ace bandage that was before they had slip on neoprene bandages, but I wrapped it in the ace bandage and within a couple days, the warm warmth of it staying on it cured it so try getting a neoprene brace to pull on or wrap it in ace bandage
We have three Piggly Wiggle within five miles of us here in Parkersburg Wv. They brought out Food land here. Piggly wiggly was the first store we shopped at after we got married in Charleston S. C. In 1967.
I'm born and raised in Arizona. It's grown so much, and still booming, you would not like the traffic. It's horrendous. The winters are perfect here. Summers is another story. Triple Digits minimum 4 months. You have to love the heat to want to live here. That is why we have Snow Birds (mostly seniors) who move to AZ for the winter, back home for spring and summer.
****🌺Brooke, i know just how you feel about trying to figure out how to just stay from hurting!! I have RA and I swear its the worst thing this side if hell's flames!! I live in San Diego & im still feeling the pains if the cold and also the heat!! Im about to go home to Hawaii for Christmas, and I'm really interested in seeing just how much better or worst, I'll do with the weather change and the higher humidity?? It may also be a deciding factor for me, as to where i may live out the rest of my years! I just havent made up my mind yet?? All I know for sure is that, I wish someone would find a cure for this kind of Arthritis!! I believe It is the most painful strain of Arthritises that is known to us at this time!! So Brooke, I really do feel sympathetic toward you for your pains you have!! Theres not much warning for a bad session, that may be heading our way! At least if we knew for sure, then maybe, we could do something to ward it off?? I wish you & all of Cog Hill Farms a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year's🎉💥🎉💥!!! Sorry to hear that you lost your beautiful Scott🌳🦚 may he rest in peace!! May all of you find some comfort soon as well. Here in San Diego, out in the country, in what was a small country town at the time named Lakeside, we used to have a Piggly Wiggly market as well. We still go to that market & shop tho now its called something else. Jason, be careful about those Cortisone shots!! They said years ago that we're not supposed to have more than 3 of them in our lifetime!! Most people aren't even aware of that! I used to get them in my knees until I had found out this info! They never did much for me anyway, so to me it didn't matter much! Ive had many different injuries since, and I've just refused to have anymore of those shots, and I've done just fine!! So just be aware of that shot issue. Well i love all of you guys & Brooke that dig at Lester was real good!! Now be on your toes, I'm sure he'll have a good comeback for you!! Well fellow Cog Hill Farm🌳 family members, may everyone have a wonderful and Happy Holidays Season!! God ✝️ bless 🙏🙏 to all!! 🦚🐕🌳🐎🦋🐓🐣 🦆🦢🐂🐐🐖🐄***
You have no idea what a BREATH OF FRESH AIR you both are to so many. GA/AL border here. Like the no politics, happy attitude and positive at all angles. Thank you.
Yes! Thank you to.
We got a bunch of different used stuff because dad worked at city dump. It was always nice when he took me with him. I found a metal doll house in great shape.
I'm from Memphis, Tennessee, and I love watching your videos. The way you react to your animals is so sweet. Thank you for all you do.
Your sweet happy faces are just. Like. medicine🎉 to me
Jim Carey was so awesome in the grench I loved all his facial expressions.
Thank you Jason and Brooke. I am so excited because I have packages arriving to my house from my mom for Christmas and I know its full of Cog Hill Farm goodies!!!

In North Texas we called it the "Squirming Swine".😊
😂😂 that's so funny ❤
Too funny 😂😂😂
😂
I always down in South Texas and we never had a Piggly Wiggly that I know of here but HEB we have lots of! 🤣🤣🤣
Everywhere I turn I hear about how bad the bird flu is right now and I have been in almost constant prayer for protection of the animals at Cog Hill.

Me too ! My dad also got them when he got gas. I had the job of ĺicking them and putting them in the book. 😜😜
Oh this was a fun video reminiscing Christmas's past.
I have a Raggedy Ann that my mom made for me and my baby sister. I still have it now and I'm so glad I do . We lost my mom a couple months ago and when I see it all these wonderful memories come flooding back. She was so crafty an avid sewer, knitter, crocheter and needlepoint.

Missed your ‘live’ but our high in Tucson, AZ has been 92!!!! This is crazy!
What a wonderful fun trip down memory lane! Cog Hill Farm and Squad ROCKS!💙💙💙
37 in S E Mo.
Loved the walk down toy memory lane. I was reminded of so many toys.
🐾🐾 Thank you both for sharing your time with us.🐾🐾
I just dehydrated about 12 DZN eggs into powder for shelf stability
In 1950-51, my family lived in Fairbanks, Alaska, and we had a Piggly Wiggly!!!

Haven’t heard Lincoln logs in yrs lol. Loved em.
Our 62 yr. Son had Lincoln Logs when 5. He built a log cabin and we decorated it at Christmas for a centerpiece on the dining table.
It’s 29 here in Rhode Island! Love, prayers and blessings from Rhode Island ❤️🙏🏻🇺🇸
I remember one year me and my 2cousins all got a remote control General Lee. We drove those things for hours on our basement floor. So much fun ❤
I am a Floridian and went to live in Arizona. I longed for Florida again. I’m now retired in Tampa Florida.
My daughter graduated high school in 1981. She had to have one of those fancy calculators. Not sure why. But she had a part time job. I was a single mom of 5. I think hers was a Texas Instrument.
We got a little snow ❄️❄️ here. Not enough to say we got any.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Western Oklahoma had a Piggly Wiggly's back in the 80's and 90's, I worked there keeping the floors swept and helping people carry there groceries to there car..
When I was younger we had a piggly wiggles in Oregon. I'm 88 years now
Dinner sounds wonderful, stay warm, have a great rest of your week!!
Etcha scetch & those spiral gears w/the tiny green thumb tacs !!😮
Hi from western North Carolina. Please pray for the people affected by Helene. Many people still do not have shelter and it is cold. Had snow in many areas last night.
A whole lot of prayers are on their way !❤
The fantastic 4 stretch armstong help my son heal from brain surgery.

Glad you mentioned My Buddy! I got a look alike doll for my 4 year old son. He never knew the difference but to this day I still feel guilty!🥺
Brooke, I had the Easy Bake oven. And they still make them. We got Slinky’s Etch a Sketch

I'm sitting here watching Seven Brides for Seven Brothers
Hello from Sunny South Carolina! My cilantro lives all Winter. I would’ve thought your would too.
When you go back to TSC, look for egg max. It is a feed.yes and get your corn.😊
Enjoyed listening to y'all talking about your past toys etc. Brought back memories for me with my daughters. Take care and stay warm
Y'all keep reminding me of my children's Christmas'. When I was about 12 years old We got the incredible eatables
I also remember driving through Arizona in many feet of snow. Through flagstaff the icicles hanging off buildings were as big around as a man.

My friend, next door, had everything you mentioned. I had none of them but I played with her.
Jason's just awee

We have Piggly Wiggly in Kentucky ❤❤❤
I caught a wild river rock and tamed it. I loved my pet rock! LoL Rockem Sockem Robots ad said, "You knocked my block off!" LMAO I got a pony and cowboy outfit in 1968. I don't know how Santa managed THAT! I loved my Dancerina dancing ballerina doll!
Big wheels didn’t come out until I was a teen. I was so jealous
Loved my hot wheel city. Would build my legos around it to maximize it. Would play for hours. Every time went to Kmart I’d sit in the hot wheel section and I’d get one if I didn’t bother my mom and sisters shopping. Had an Atari 400.

My favorite toy was clackers. I had mastered it and never got hurt. I had the original that was either glass or hard acrylic.
Mine are glass I still have them. Chipped and definitely used
I had forgot about clackers!
I'm 73. When I was a kid we had a Piggly Wiggly in a suburb of Minneapolis, Minnesota. They've been gone a long, long time but I remember Mom taking us there for groceries for many years. :)
We had a Piggly Wiggly in Crane, Texas, 1953-54, when I was growing up., but not today, 2024.
The memories and toys were great. Jarts at my grandmas lol.

Tinker toys
My autistic son loved his lite brite. He is 39 now and has lost his eyesight so he no longer plays with it.
You asking about Christmas presents reminded me about my poor sons 5th Christmas. He wanted a Tomahawk Chopper bike (not sure if they are called that in the US) and come Christmas morning not much enthusiasm. So over to visit his granny and he kept grizzling. So of course granny said let him stay with us for the night. Well anyway long story short poor boy had Mumps. So, much to his delight, he ended up in granny's for the holidays. We live outside the village and they were in the middle of everything, close to his friends so he had a great time when the worst was over. x

I remember sliding down hills in the snow as a child with toboggans or a steering wheel sled. Or see who could jump the longest with ski. All the kids in the neighborhood had the most fun in the wintertime.
I finally got my first doll when I was 11. My baby sister promptly ate all of her fingers/thumbs. 😭
😮
I caught the latter part of the live. Now I’m watching what I missed. I remember visiting my daughter and grands in New Port Richey, FL, just north of Tampa in January one year and the temp was in the 20’s. Brr.. I told her I could have stayed home in Oregon for that. But she and the kids weren’t there.
Red light therapy for any pain and immunity issues. LUME Box is amazing. Just got one 1/2 off for my 50th from my family!!! If you could avoid cortisone shots, you should. Temporary relief with long term side effects and make your joint worse as you age.
I know I have had 4, 2 in each shoulder.
Prayers for health and healing. Try the Lume Box♥️
I bought my daughter two grinch soaps for Christmas last year. She absolutely LOVED them.She has a license plate that has Grinch on it.
A tennis elbow brace helps a lot when worn properly.
I saw Emmet Otter & his Jug Band on 1 of the movie services last week! Prime? Tubi? Hulu? Can't remember! I loved it!
Pleasant day here in Mesa Az. The dry heat is easier to do with summer temps. But low humidity causes for dry skin and not that dewy southern belle complexion. 😊
Jason, ask you Dr about prdnisone. Will knock that inflamation out. kin to cortisone I think, but something you can keep on hand as needed..
Yes! Arizona! You’ll be so welcome here in Arizona!
I still have my Lite-brite. I still have some papers and all the pegs. The bulb even still comes on. 😁
We had Piggly Wiggly's here in Kerrville Texas when I was a kid until I was in my 20's. We loved it. Now we have H.E.B and WalMart.
I know i am rewatching this but you all are the same age as my son and the toys you are remembering are the toys i bought for him . he also had the TI99 4A
Well it's hot in Queensland, Australia. 29C but very humid. Storms on the way in the SE.
I baked moth balls in my Easy Bake oven. We had to throw it away 😂
I had a “Thumbalina baby doll “
Turmeric honey cider vinegar mixed with hot water and drink a cup full a day
My mother told me an old family recipe for bee stings. Tobacco. You chew the tobacco and put it on the bee stings. It’s supposed to draw out the stinger
my grandmother used bluing and mud. When the mud dried it pulled the stinger right out. I guess the bluing was some type of antiseptic.
Jason, I’ve had tennis elbow only once in my life and it lasted five weeks and then the last week somebody told me to wrap it in ace bandage that was before they had slip on neoprene bandages, but I wrapped it in the ace bandage and within a couple days, the warm warmth of it staying on it cured it so try getting a neoprene brace to pull on or wrap it in ace bandage
Oh my goodness, sounds like “the Christmas Story”
We have three Piggly Wiggle within five miles of us here in Parkersburg Wv. They brought out Food land here. Piggly wiggly was the first store we shopped at after we got married in Charleston S. C. In 1967.
I'm born and raised in Arizona. It's grown so much, and still booming, you would not like the traffic. It's horrendous. The winters are perfect here. Summers is another story. Triple Digits minimum 4 months. You have to love the heat to want to live here. That is why we have Snow Birds (mostly seniors) who move to AZ for the winter, back home for spring and summer.
Hello from northern Michigan 💨❄️
I go to garden all winter long to pick cilantro & parsley. Constantly growing under the snow ! We got more snow today, too. Melts & snows.
I buy eggs at Walmart, I buy 60 at a time in a box. They were $5.50 a box this summer. Today that box was $20… I need chickens 😂😂😂
****🌺Brooke, i know just how you feel about trying to figure out how to just stay from hurting!! I have RA and I swear its the worst thing this side if hell's flames!! I live in San Diego & im still feeling the pains if the cold and also the heat!! Im about to go home to Hawaii for Christmas, and I'm really interested in seeing just how much better or worst, I'll do with the weather change and the higher humidity?? It may also be a deciding factor for me, as to where i may live out the rest of my years! I just havent made up my mind yet?? All I know for sure is that, I wish someone would find a cure for this kind of Arthritis!! I believe It is the most painful strain of Arthritises that is known to us at this time!! So Brooke, I really do feel sympathetic toward you for your pains you have!! Theres not much warning for a bad session, that may be heading our way! At least if we knew for sure, then maybe, we could do something to ward it off?? I wish you & all of Cog Hill Farms a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year's🎉💥🎉💥!!! Sorry to hear that you lost your beautiful Scott🌳🦚 may he rest in peace!! May all of you find some comfort soon as well. Here in San Diego, out in the country, in what was a small country town at the time named Lakeside, we used to have a Piggly Wiggly market as well. We still go to that market & shop tho now its called something else. Jason, be careful about those Cortisone shots!! They said years ago that we're not supposed to have more than 3 of them in our lifetime!! Most people aren't even aware of that! I used to get them in my knees until I had found out this info! They never did much for me anyway, so to me it didn't matter much! Ive had many different injuries since, and I've just refused to have anymore of those shots, and I've done just fine!! So just be aware of that shot issue. Well i love all of you guys & Brooke that dig at Lester was real good!! Now be on your toes, I'm sure he'll have a good comeback for you!! Well fellow Cog Hill Farm🌳 family members, may everyone have a wonderful and Happy Holidays Season!! God ✝️ bless 🙏🙏 to all!! 🦚🐕🌳🐎🦋🐓🐣
