I was really worried whether you were going to realize that you put the zucchini offcuts in the bowl for the muffins before actually baking them... 😂 seeing stuff like that happen to other people as well is so comforting!🥰
I thought the same thing.
Me too!😁
I was saying, you put that in the wrong bowl! Like Becky could hear me!! LOL love the videos!!
Good news: she heard me yelling at the tv and realized it wasn’t her compost bowl🤣🤣🤣
ME TOO! 🤣🤣🤣
I'm 75 and learning so much from you. I'm married 54 yrs. raised two sons, worked full time since I graduated from high school, 40+ yrs as an RN. BUT, I never learned or liked to cook. I am learning to cook from scratch watching you. You are so talented.
It's so great to watch a young person cooking from scratch, the only way this old lady has ever cooked, lol.
Your efficiency in the kitchen is phenomenal, you're a great teacher young Lady. ❤
Just had to share. My 6 year old was cleaning some lego blocks earlier today. She pulls her shirt out to put blocks in to carry and says "mommy look, I'm doing like Becky!" 😂 She's seen you use your shirt and the Roo apron a lot lol.
So cute!
Precious!!!
Freeze dry your tomatoes! I have been cutting my San morazo tomatoes in half. Then freeze dry. Once it done I use my food processor to make a tomato powder. Just rehydrate the powder with water to make instant tomato paste or tomato sauce depending on how much water you use. It's been a game changer here!
Wow! That’s an awesome idea
In Greece we freeze bell peppers every year so we can have stuffed peppers in the winter . They freeze very well but you have to take the stems and seeds out beore you do it .
Good to know that!!! Thank you 😁
Good to know that!!! Thank you 😁
I make unstuffed peppers as either a casserole or a soup. Same ingredients, less fussy.
Thanks 👍
@@GrandmaWasRight I did the same with stuffed cabbage, I have been making unstuffed cabbage for a few decades. I have made stuffed peppers and they freeze well.
My grandmother had six huge blueberry bushes that were prolific. Her blueberry tip was to put them in the fridge unwashed and only wash what you were using. They last a lot longer that way.
Good to know!
My grandparents are my garden inspiration. They have so many good tips. Thank you for sharing yours!
I'm amazed by you! While I was able to work full time without many issues while pregnant, cooking was a completely different story! I couldn't cook meat to save my life without running to the bathroom to throw up. Congrats on all of your life milestones and for the joy of harvest/preservation season!
I have frozen bell peppers which I cut in quarters. I make stuffed peppers from them by making them into a casserole instead of single peppers. Just lay the peppers in the bottom of the baking dish, and top with the normal stuffing ingredients. Once baked up, I cool them off, then a vacu pack them in portion sizes. Works well, and I don’t have to by peppers in the winter.
Omg that sounds delightful!
You can blanch the whole peppers (without seeds) to soften them. They don't need to much place in the freezer. Then you can unfreeze them a little and put the stuffing in.
Brilliant!!
That would make it easier when it comes time to eating them too. Good idea!
@@user-eg1kz9og7s t
Um. Nothing wrong with Josh eating a whole apple pie. It’s just me and I eat a whole pie. ❤️
Me tooo! Apple pie is the only pie in my humble opinion.
Nothing wrong with eating the whole pie at all. My favorite to make and my family loves it. I make mine with the streusel topping. 🍎🥧
Me too. Yummy 😋. 🍎🥧
I just freeze it in individual pieces :-)
Hear ya
I just eat it over couple days
Pie for breakfast! Nomnomnom
Am I the only one over here thinking, “what’s wrong with having to eat a whole pie by yourself?!” 😋 It can stay good in the fridge for several days.
I think I’m seeing a baby bump!!😊 So adorable!! Enjoying the new house so much. Can’t wait to see what you are going to do in regards to the garden. Would love to see a walk through of the potential garden are and hear what your thoughts are on it. Take care!!
i've noticed the belly too. i just went back and checked one of her announcement videos and sh'e's due around first of december. so only about 11-12 weaks left.
@@Midlife_Manical_Mayhem ahh super cool! And thanks for doing the work for me on checking old videos haha
You taught me that a not so red tomatoe is called Blushing...I used it in a sentence yesterday and felt smart! Lol...thanks! ❤
Oh I learned that from one of her last garden videos too!
That’s cute!! I love it
I love adding a bit of lemon zest to blueberry muffins. Try it. The added zing is wonderful.
Even Lemon Extract. I didn’t have Lemons the last couple of times of making Blueberry Muffins.
That sounds awesome
I love doing this with my scones too.
@@teniaosayande6355 oh yes, blueberry/lemon or lemon/poppyseed scones are so yummy.
mhhh yes I love doing this too! Lemon zest makes everything better haha
I use the side of my box shredder as a mandolin to slice my cucumbers, works like a charm. Love the videos!
I have started adding some celery to my cucumbers and onions when making refrigerator pickles. It is surprisingly good in there. Also, pickled celery adds a little something special to tuna and chicken salad.
Do you have the chickens yet ? Can't wait to see the garden/chicken area. I love watching all aspects. I'm 65 and wanting to can because of you!
The chickens I believe are still at the old house.
ME TOO!!!
Me too! I just got a water bath scanner and some jars. Going to get the Ball cookbook and the utensils next.
I freeze my peppers by just slicing them in half and removing the inside for stuffed peppers. It works really well.
Yes this is the best way to freeze them. So easy and you can still stuff them or slice them up for something else.
What an inspiration you are to all age groups. Congratulations on having baby Acre, what a joy. I follow you and have so enjoyed your videos. Remember to take time out for you to enjoy your beautiful baby boy x
When making muffins, I use an ice cream scoop with the release lever to get that batter in the tins. Quicker and tidier when it is time to clean the tin. I am definitely putting blueberries in my zucchini bread next time, that looks divine. !!
I do the same thing! When I make mini muffins for my granddaughter I use my cookie scoop. Perfect every time
Becky, you make my day every time I see a new video. You have encouraged me to start cooking at home more and I couldn't be happier. You're recipes are some of the most delicious things I've ever eaten!
I have a friend with 2 ovens and 2 dishwashers. She has a huge family and she is so happy with them.
Girl you are knocking it out of the park with all your amazing videos!! You make canning jobs like canning peaches not so intimidating. It’s always been something I’ve wanted to do but scared. You’ve made the video so easy to follow and simple straight to the point. I keep finding myself constantly going back to rewatch our videos for inspiration!! Thank you Becky for being you and being so real and for teaching in a simple way that is easy to learn, easy to remember and replicate!! Wishing you all the best! Much love ❤️
I second your comment 👍👍🤭💞❣
Amazon has counter top dishwashers! You could put your daily stuff in that and use your big lower one for the big bowls and pots❤️
Since you do so much processing and preserving each year, when you finally get around to remodeling your kitchen you might consider adding a clean up station with it's own very deep sink, drainboard, pot and bowl storage right there. You can get commercial stainless units with a counter on one side and drainboard on the other that are all one integrate piece which makes clean up and sanitation a snap. They're not so pretty/fashionable, but they're extremely functional and durable. That way you can deposit all your dirty stuff there in the deep sink as you finish each individual project to deal with later and still have your main sink available for your next, next and next projects throughout a given day. If you decide to put in that second dishwasher, that would also be the area to put the one for all your pots and pans!
By the way, you have so many different appliances that I assume you also have a food processor? I'm pretty sure I've seen you use it shredding cheese. You can also use it to slice up cucumbers and grate up zucchini in seconds. We just made up a batch of sour kraut with ours by quartering the cabbage and running it through using the slicing disc. In less than 10 minutes we had 1/2 gallon of sour Kraut prepped, jarred and fermenting AND everything cleaned up and put away. We also make a cucumber and onion pickle like the ones you make (sans the sugar, we like ours more savory) and I slice up both the onions and cucumbers with the food processor as well. Saves a ton of time vs slicing everything.
Great video as always!
I think she's talked about setting up a canning kitchen where her food storage is. A separate sink like that is an awesome idea.
Jamerrill Stewart has finally got her dream mega Momma kitchen and she wanted and got 2 dishwashers, if ever a woman deserved it ,it certainly is Jamerrill. I love this new chapter in you and Josh's life. Blessings sweet Momma to be from Ireland 🇮🇪 🙏 ❤️
And it turned out beautiful didn't it
@@chrishingson3064 It's absolutely stunning 😍
Love Jamerrill
I CAN'T wait any longer for a food video in the kitchen! Or the organizing it!!
Love Jamerrill she’s awesome-so happy for her,her new Kitchen is beautiful,functional,much deserved
I just had my 5th baby in July, so I took this season off in the garden. Your recent videos have motivated me to get all the weeds under control and prepare my garden for a nice fall harvest! 🥰 Best wishes!
The sweet ones like you are few and far between these days. You are an amazing young woman with a loving husband and great support system within your family. I love how you guys are always willing to help one another and that you spend tons of quality time together strengthening those bonds. We need more of that in this broken world. Please never allow those mean hearted vultures on the internet to weaken your spirit. What is in the heart spills from the mouth and misery loves company. You have a child like innocence about you that is just precious. You just keep being who you are and you will continue to gain followers and an amazing TH-cam career. Enjoy it. Because while you are enjoying what you have built here they will still be sitting in their dark corners of the internet with their ugly hearts for company accomplishing a whole lot of nothing. God bless you young lady.
I wholeheartedly agree!! Becky's channel is such a breath of fresh air from all the negative & superficial things we see on You Tube.
@@teniaosayande6355 yess!
Raspberries are the same way :D
Every time I watch one of you videos it makes me want a freeze dryer even more haha -Cara
I want one too but at my age it isn’t feasible.
Me too!
@@cherylcabral4 I looks so handy!
@@michelleboedeker1799 Right!? It just looks so useful 😊
Every time I see a new video of yours I set aside some 'me' time. My personal motto has always been, 'Learn something new every day ', and in watching your videos, I always do. You amaze me with how young you are with more knowledge than many oldtimers. Whether you're self-taught or came from a family who instilled the importance of being self-sufficient, you learned quite well. My mother grew up during the Great Depression in a home with no running water or electricity in southern Alabama. I'm so grateful for the treasure of that same knowledge. She made certain her daughters learned everything you're showing others. Some of which are lost arts. I giggle at myself. When I saw my first couple of your videos, I assumed you had a massive extended family that you fed every day. Becky, you are truly a treasure.
I love that you're preserving part of your harvest by using it right away in baked goods, dinner/ lunches to be served later. Thank you for another great idea 💡
Becky, you need a dishwasher like they have in a restaurant. You load the tray, put the items in, and a couple minutes later the entire cycle went through and washed them. It takes all sizes of dishes!
I started off having a rough day and thought to myself how I can’t wait until YOU post because your videos are so soothing. 🥰
Whole peppers freeze beautifully, my mom does it all the time so we can have stuffed peppers during winter - you just clean them (take out stem and seeds) and throw them in the freezer. :)
I got rid of that worthless double sink. I had large farm sink installed. LOVE IT!!!!!When I need some soapy water, I just pull out a little plastic tube. It is great to wash those late bowls. AND big enough to wash the refrigerator shelves with easily!!!
Per your recommendation I purchased Americas Test Cookbook. Just started reading it over, love the book thus far. I made my version of your pasta chicken with pink sauce, my husband has asked for me to make it again. Thanks for sharing you’re an amazing cook. Lean a lot when I watch your videos.
We have all been lusting after Jamerrill’s new custom kitchen! Particularly her two dishwashers and enormous stove!
Wrong channel… this is Becky’s not J’s
@@sandravanderleek8569 She’s just saying someone out there does have two dishwashers.
@@sandravanderleek8569 Becky has mentioned that she follows Jamerrill so I was simply remarking that Jamerrill has put two dishwashers in her new kitchen redo.
@@cynthiafisher9907 it’s Becky’s channel… not sure why it’s eating you up with excitement to totally ignore Becky and focus on a different channel. Gushing over someone else… rude.
@@sandravanderleek8569 I’m not sure why you feel the need to defend Becky when there was no attack? You are the one that seems to be eaten up...with something.
Absolutely love when you cook!!! I'm retiring July 2024 and moving to Alabama. My sister who lived with me for 6 months before she moved to Alabama has already found us a beautiful 4 bedroom house on 5 acres. When she moved with me along with her son, it was an adjustment but we learned to cook together, clean and craft together. I miss that. Looking forward to gardening and cooking again from scratch. It's not as fun when you live by yourself.
Becky…I just had to share. I harvested our celery today. We live in a condo so all of my gardening is done in containers and one of those 4’ long raised containers from Sam’s. Anyway I ended up with 2 very full quart bags of cut up celery for stews/soups and 2 quart bags of leaves/scraps for when I make broth to put in the freezer. Not bad for a whim of an experiment!
You’ve also got me thinking about getting a green stalk for next year to make use of vertical space since I have such limited space. I am starting to plan next year’s garden already!
I can’t believe myself…I made 4-8oz bottles of homemade vanilla this week and, just now I invested in a handful of Widemouth Ball jars to make pickles! Whaaaaaat? You are changing me Becky!
Reusable silicone muffin liners, or silicone muffin tins are amazing too :)
Tip: even easier than muffins! Line a half sheet pan with parchment paper, and spread a double batch of batter in there. Takes only 20-25mins to bake because it’s thinner, and they are easy to slice into portion-size squares, fit neatly into freezer bags and reheat nicely with 30sec in the microwave plus a trip through the toaster - the outside gets so nice and crispy from the toaster too! I have found this to be the fastest way to prep sweet breads for the freezer.
Becky Zucchini is great on the grill!
Just cut in half, lengthwise . I usually salt/season a bit of olive oil..
Hi Becky...fyi...I make my stuffed peppers and freeze them before baking them. My husband prefers the peppers softer so freezing them first works perfectly. I also make up "soup" bags. Just prepare carrots,celery,and onions from the garden all
chopped and ready for soup...all winter long. Enjoy your day
You could use half cup scoop to fill muffin cups. Makes it a tad bit easier and all muffins are uniform. Love watching your videos.
I use my pampered chef scoops for cookies and muffins. I love them!
Becky, u give me so much inspiration in the kitchen. I’m definetly making that zucchini bread with blueberries, never thought about putting blueberries in zucchini bread. Thanks for getting me motivated.❤️
Congratulations on a great garden haul!!
I’m just going to take a second to appreciate your delivery. So articulate and clear - and interesting. And straightforward! I also love your nails. How on earth do you keep your nails so nice when you dig, delve, weed, chop & cook? Even gel nails give up on me. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🌟🌟🌟😊😊😊🌸🌸🌸
Hi Becky. Always enjoy your cooking. I've noticed you have the same grater as me and on the side of that thing you can make cucumber slices. No need for a mandolin. 😉 I also have been buying glass containers. You inspired me to give up the plastic ones. I will look up some photos and show them to you on Instagram. Thanks for the fun and yummy video. 😄🇳🇱❤️
I have a box grater but never even thought about slicing cukes. Learn something new every day.
@@ladieessence I know, but it does the job when you have no mandolin. 😉
🇳🇱🥳
I absolutely love watching your videos. It's surprisingly how a simple tip can make a huge difference in cooking. You inspire me to be a better cook!!😊
Out of high school I tried culinary arts classes and fell in love with the restaurant dish washer! Girl! If I remember correctly it took 15-30 seconds to wash everything that fit in the trays. When I renovate I'm planning a normal home dish washer in the main kitchen and hiding the restaurant dish washer in the butlers pantry for the big dishes. I know I definitely want the restaurant dishwasher but still deciding if I want the regular dish washer too. But I am going to put my freeze drier in butlers pantry too. Love your channel! Watching from Hawaii!
Becky, I agree, love the episodes of America's Test Kitchen. Did you know they have a cookbook for Preserving. It's called "America's Test Kitchen Foolproof Preserving. A Guide to Small Batch Jams, Jellies, Pickles, Condiments & More".
Love this video. Lots of good camaraderie. Also…I am very excited to see when you bring your chickens over! The girls, their new home and your new garden are going to bring such enjoyment to you, the channel and for all of the viewers. But I understand…everything has its own time. 😊👍 ~Sharon
You’re going to be so thankful you put the time in preparing those muffins, etc, on the front end after the baby is here!! You’re one smart mama!!
Caught up on Making the Cut yesterday! Another great video today. Cannot wait for the celery for some reason! Glad you have "rest" on your list as well. Love from Oklahoma
Becky I love the set up of your kitchen. You have lots of counter space and I love how everything is handy now.
If we are dreaming, I would have 2 driers in my laundry room. It takes 2x as long to dry clothes as washing takes. I would have 2 dryers so one could be going while a second load was washing and then I could throw that load in the second dryer. It is so nice especially when the babies start coming. They come with a lot of laundry. Lol
If you wrap the celery in aluminum foil it will last in the fridge for a super super long time. Tried it this year and was amazed! Enjoyed this video- have fun at the wedding this week!
I really love the shelf of spices that goes around your kitchen. I would be using that for all the things.
I love making the cut too!! Thanks Becky. I’ve never enjoyed cooking but you inspire me.
I'm canning potatoes from my garden today!!! I'd love to have a freeze dryer, you're very lucky to have one!!! I love your new house Becky and congrats on the baby too!!!
What a blessing! My potatos didn’t make the heat wave so trying again this coming week for fall harvest
@@danielleterry2331 mine weren't that big and I only got maybe half a bushel so we planed more to but frost comes early in the NE so I don't expect many more. Good luck with yours though.😉😉
You can use your oven to freeze dry. I use mine at 100° c with fan.
@@chelleatjbmoe5915 thank you, I did not know that!
I never thought to use blueberries with zucchini to make a muffin that really does sound good I’m gonna have to try that now thank you for the idea!🥰
blackberries and grated summer squash makes great muffins/snack cakes.
Becky! You make my geriatric back ache just watching you achieve the number of things you achieve during one of your vlogs. Good grief! Give yourself a break, for crying out loud. You are truly an inspiration as many have commented. Plus, you are the most generous and sweet hearted person ever! I love how you demonstrate your appreciation of your audience. So very kind!
Hi Becky! I just wanted to tell you that one of your videos was randomly recommended to me a month or two ago and since then, I haven't stopped watching you! So amazed by your homesteading knowledge and willingness to share with us. My husband watches you with me every night before bed too haha.
When I bought my pots and pans 50 years ago, the salesman told us if you place 1/2 cup or so of baking soda and water in the pan it will help get the burned (popcorn etc,) marks off the bottom of my pans. It has saved me more times than I care to admit. Sometimes it was so bad, I had to do it two times, simmer on stove a few minutes and let it soak. It works. I am enjoying watching you this weekend, I am resting as I did lots of canning this past week
I left a stainless sauce pan with broccoli in it on the stove and burned burned burned it. I put some vinegar in the pan just to cover the bottom and turned the burner on until it boiled. The burn came out like magic! I was so surprised.
I've overcooked hardboiled eggs years ago in my stainless steel Dutch oven. Did the same procedure to rescue the pot. Still use that pot on a regular basis.
Did you know pepper plants are perennials??? I just watched you tube video from Next Level Gardening called, "Over Wintering Your Pepper Plants" . I'm so excited to try and get a longer production time for my peppers next year by having the plants already established. Maybe you can get even more peppers that way too!
Love your channel. You keep me motivated!
I cut zucchini on the diagonal, and put fresh grated Parmesan on them and roast till brown delish! 🌸🇨🇦💪🏾🌟
Hey Becky can I suggest some better lighting in your new kitchen? When it’s sunny out it’s perfect but when it’s not it seems a bit dark. There are specific ones that vloggers use . Just want everyone to see ur amazing food (as well as myself as you know I’m such a fan!)
I had two dishwashers in my last home...it was wonderful! It was cheaper to buy a dishwasher than a cabinet so that's what we did!
Becky, thank you for reminding me of the years I spent preserving & cooking for my family. You have encouraged me to get back to freezing & canning in bulk. BTW-- try making corncakes (think cornbread pancakes) with fruit or bacon lardons & freeze them. Great quick grab & go meal. [I always take 1 to 1/2 Cups of flour out of the cornbread recipe & substitute more cornmeal for this.]
I love your energy Becky❤. I am amazed at how you organize your kitchen. I am 86 years young and I watch you for at least an hour before I go to bed as it relaxes me and I go right to sleep. ❤❤❤
This video was great. I learned how to make refrigerator cucumbers and a pink sauce. Both were something I will try to do. FYI try freezing whole peppers. They do great. Just wash and freeze. Then take them out and let them thaw a few minutes and you can core them and use them in anything your cooking. Easy peasy.
Preserving all day for me too! Freeze dryer filled and zucchini bread in the oven. Salsa, picking and processing corn next. Thanks for the inspiration!
My blue berries came out of the freeze drier early this morning
I freeze my green peppers... I cut the top off, take out the seeds then freeze them whole. Texture is softer but very good. Do you make cheese? If so, I would love to see a video. Have a great week!🦋
Oh my goodness, Becky you are simply amazing. Thank you for being so true in your videos. I've gained confidence from you and really look forward to your release days! So glad the loaf wasn't burnt.
I always enjoy being in the kitchen with you. Love your dinner choices.
Becky, I love that dishwasher! I wish I had that 3rd top shelf!!! ❤ y’all, Kristy in Missouri zone 6b 😃🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
we have that 3rd rack. my mother in law and i do the loading, while husband and son do the unloading. they forget that rack almost every time. lol
That baby is going to be eating good throughout your pregnancy and beyond! I love watching your cooking! It always inspires me.
I'm drooling from all the goodies you made with your homegrown veggies. Yum!!!
great video Becky. loved this so much done and your meal looks amazing. would definitely love a freeze dryer. thank you so much for sharing everything with us. xxx
Another amazing video, Becky!! If anyone is considering getting a freeze dryer and you are able to, take the plunge! I love it! Just finished mushrooms, basil, spinach, chicken broth, and vegetable broth. I figured after a few cycles I’d let it rest a bit lol. It’ll be going again this evening with more basil, bell peppers, zucchini, and yellow squash. I love the fact that if I have something that won’t be used quickly enough, I can freeze dry it for later. My freezers are usually pretty full at any one time. I dehydrate also but Becky’s video of the comparison of both ways is what pushed me to get the Harvest Right! I am just amazed how much better the food tastes after being reconstituted vs dehydrated. And no, I don’t work for the company 😁
Do you have the oil pump or the no oil pump?
@@toniburnham4213 I have the regular premiere pump that comes with it. I didn’t have another $1500 to shell out. Sure would have loved to have that though! It’s not difficult checking and changing the oil. Would I prefer to have the no oil? Yes! 😃
I want one too, I stared a savings for that. They are so pricey!
We keep the lids from our 16 oz peanut butter and use them on regular mouth jars. Both Kroger and Food Club brand pb lids work great.
So productive! Since you make your own ranch seasoning, try putting that on the green beans instead of the garlic for another variation of flavor...DELICIOUS! 😋
Love watching your preservation videos esp since you don’t just do canned stuff. I love you include freezer meals, freezing veg and even desserts. Gives me inspiration and motivation to do more gardening. Just blanched a big batch of green beans to freeze when in past years I would have just given them away.
Love that dishwasher! 3 trays are awesome!
Having muffins and other prepared breakfasts will come in very handy when baby is here! Good planning 👌
This baby is going to spend a lot of time in the kitchen and garden.
Yes meal prep easy freezer meals now for post baby days! Life saver
Thanks for reminding me about Making the Cut! I’ve watched all seasons,
Again very enjoyable !!! It's nice to see you working in your new kitchen. Looking forward to videos around your new home sted when they start!!
I’m doing the same this year, as far as preserving food into a recipe right off the bat. I just did a TON of eggrolls with my garden cabbage and carrots, this morning! Popped them in the freezer for future use.
How do you reheat your egg rolls? Mine were delicious fresh but taste greasy when I reheat from frozen.
@@dianaroberts7114 I baked mine, so I just pop them back in the oven on 350 for 10-15 minutes. They crisp back up.
@diana roberts, I make my egg rolls cook only what I need for the moment, freeze the rest uncooked. When I'm ready for more just cook from frozen. You can dust them with corn starch to help keep them crispy.
I always clean the sink once it’s empty as well! Two jobs get done for the price of one
You continue to amaze me. I wish I was half as organized as you are! I'm also glad that you "heard" me telling you that you had tossed a couple of scraps into the muffin mix bowl LOL. I love anything pasta (as long as no oysters find their way into the mix LOL) and this looks so good! Thanks for letting us hang out with you and showing us some mouth-watering dishes.
Thanks to your inspiring videos, I batch cooked today to have a few ready to make meals during the week. I also started looking for local farmers in my area to buy not so pretty produce from to preserve.
Beckie why don’t you save your seeds from your produce? Love watching your series
You can always freeze pie filling in a pie plate covered in parchment paper, remove from the pie plate and then seal in air tight bags. That way you pull out a pie shell, plop in the filling and bake! I make small pies in the flavors only a couple people like and I don’t have a huge amount of pie going to waste.
Very clever idea!
Agreed, I do this too. Works so good!
Becky, you really, really need to use your oven timer! LOL I find myself yelling at you to set it. You get stuck in high gear sometimes, moving from one project to the next. Your brain moves faster than your body can keep up. I say this in love hun. 🥰
I love this lady! So natural! I'll be watching for sure for all her great ideas and on the spot recipes. I've already subscribed.
I am learning so many new ways of food preservation from you. Every time I watch a video I am doing at least two or more new things. So far my upright freezer is packed with veggies and we have canned probably 300 jars. I didn't know that peppers froze well . They are in season here so now I will have to do some.I will have to find freezer room somewhere. Lol.
Don't let the baking intimidate you Becky. Making some mistakes is how we learn. It's meant to be fun.I was a better cook, but now I actually like to bake more. I have a serious sweet tooth, so for me it was a necessity 😁 similar to when you did your Christmas cookies, just follow the recipes the best you can and they should come out fine. Use your measuring spoons and cups😘💓it never hurts to add a couple of drops more of vanilla now and then...
In all honesty you’ve taught me how to cook and I’m still learning more and more from you !!! Please come out with a cooking/preservation book ❤️❤️
Handy tip - when grating carrots or zucchini, I don't cut the stem end off and that leaves me a little nub to hold onto when grating so I don't grate my fingers. It just makes that last little bit a lot easier.
