    Just happened to run across this. You’re a very fortunate man to have a wife that is interested in cabin life that you can share with. You remind me so much of myself. Martin, no one can ever say you are lazy. Best of luck to you in all your future endeavors. I hope your generating cabin wood smoke for many more years. 👍🙏

    Looks like you have a lot of rabbits at your home, and some nice racks up there on your wood shed to you find them or get them hunting. Got love sitting in the great outdoors when taking care of your daily duty, my outhouse on Drummond faces the lake can't remember the last time I shut the door when I was in there, except for company😁 thanks Martin

    @howlandowlle7953 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Yay the wife!!
    Now that Martin has included you in a video I feel I can thank you for all your support and willingness for Martin to have and enjoy his cabin. Martin shares with us the joys and successes of an idyllic man cave as well as how to find deep satisfaction on his own, by himself in his environment of choice. Not only is he giving vicarious satisfaction to us guys who fantasize about such pleasures, but he instills inspiration for those of us who now live alone not by choice. He shows us how its done.
    You may not realize how far your influence reaches or what a positive effect it has. This is to let you know. So, thank you sincerely and deeply for what you do for Martin, and by extension, for us Martin fans. And, keep doing those cherry pies. Martin clearly loves them.

    • @vonnieskitchenmartinsshack5544
      @vonnieskitchenmartinsshack5544 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Wow! Thanks so much, I'm blushing. Martin and I are a mutual admiration society. We compliment each others personalities, even where they rub. Little did we know how important that is when we first said "I do" almost 49 years ago. You know, way back when we knew everything! I am so glad that those alone 'not by choice' can see how to enjoy their own company. And the older we get, the more we realize how blessed we have been. BTW, I am toying with my own video instructing how to make the cherry pies!! Spoiler alert: you can use the same pastry to make meat pies as well. Keeping the home fires burning..........................literally!

    • @MarianRehersals
      @MarianRehersals 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Vonnie Do the cherry pie video! Pie is my favorite. Am always experimenting with the crust. It seems to turn out different every time. Either the recipe has too much butter or too much water, I’ve tried them all.
      I have a cabin in the mountains too and my hubby is content to stay home and do things by himself. Some people have the “cabin gene” and others don’t.
      I fixed my outhouse up with windows using flat cake plates. Very pretty, lets in lots of light and the design makes them opaque enough to give privacy. Augusta from Pacific Northwest

    • @vonnieskitchenmartinsshack5544
      @vonnieskitchenmartinsshack5544 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@MarianRehersals OK Augusta. But my crust recipe has neither water or butter. Here it is: 2 c. flour, 1/2 oil, 1/2 c milk. I use a cup measurer for the fluid. Make the milk just shy of 1 c. You'll get the feel of it. Of course it could be the barometric pressure some days. You want it not to soft and not too hard.................but just right! It was my mom's recipe and I think she got it from an old Better Home & Garden cookbook. I see they call for 5 T milk. I will do that next time and see if it turns out perfect for rolling. And Augusta, I also roll out my pastry between two sheets of waxed paper...same as mom. Dampen the counter just a tad to make paper stick.

I love seeing the old pictures, they take me back to what I call reality:) The woodshed was quite the project, well done! Building like that is relaxing and rewarding, I hope to build a shed of some sort now that I'm about to retire. Won't be as fancy but it will keep things dry. Blessings!
