I was making a PB&J sandwich for a 3 yo. I had discovered my wife had a selection of different size round biscuit cutters. Thinking it would be fun - I cut a large circle out of the bread and served a round PB&J sandwich. The screams of outrage!!! "THATS NOT THE WAY MOMMIE DOES IT".
Child logic at its best 🤦🏻♀️ If she did it first, no outrage. But if anyone else does it…. Blasphemy.
Could have been the other way. They could have only then round sandwiches from then on.
You tried, that’s what matters. Good job 👏🏻
But this is how Daddy does it, so eat it.
Good on you for trying!! Don’t give up trying to be fun… you’ll get a win eventually! 🥰
I actually really appreciate seeing the fails, they stick in head so I know not to waste money x
This video may have been mostly fails, but as someone who does bulk buying and bulk freezing of various foods and leftovers, the dissolvable labels caught my attention a lot! Adding to my cart and plan to buy them in the future.
Also, those pens would have been one of my favorite things as a kid. I had a blast with the markers as a kid that one side was a normal tip and the other side was a stamp. This would be the next best thing, even if they don't go in a straight line lol.
I just saw they make dissolvable canning labels! Must have! I make spaghetti sauce and chili in bulk. I love this.
I have some dissolvable labels and love them! I also freeze in bulk. I cut the labels in half to save money.
We use them in the kitchen at the restaurant and they’re so helpful
Rachel, the Dash egg cooker requires water poured around the silicone cups so your eggs steam. You can get the consistency of the Starbucks egg bites by adding a small amount of cottage cheese to the egg mixture. I love mine!
I did add water ☺️ cool idea with the cottage cheese!
Same here! I love mine and gifted it too.
@@RachhLovesLife did you add the water like a water bath or by having water in one single of the silicone cups? Because it thought you only put the water in the one cup
@@sarahschmitt4354 she used the silicone cup to pour water into the device. It just didn't work like she wanted
somebody told me once that charcuterie are so popular because they are essentially an adult lunchable lol! love all the fun toys for back to school!
well they’re not wrong
I'm a teacher and having a laminator is EVERYTHING lol. Even when I'm not doing stuff for the classroom I do little projects with my nieces and family and they love it. Even my boyfriend enjoys using it for his car projects and his handy man stuff. And that pencil case is very useful too! I bought 2 one black and one teal not from that exact seller but from amazon also. One I use for my makeup and it's been amazing what I can fit in it. The other one I fit my teacher stuff , pens, highlighters, erasers, whiteouts you name it. Definitely 2 things worth to have 😊
I absolutely agree. As a teacher myself I have developed a great appreciation for how useful a good laminator really is.
Absolutely agree! The pouches can be expensive but if you wait for Prime Day you can stock up for a reasonable price! Use my laminator at least twice a month!
Rachel, those are the kind of labels used for food safety in restaurants, and are awesome!! Also, we used to have markers that had individual stamp designs on each one, so instead of those pens, that's what we used. They were so fun!! 🥰
Still have them
I have worked for years in restaurants and the stickers we had always left residues of old stickers and glue even when rubbing it or washing in the dishwasher, that was a bummer. I wish we had these
@@m00nlight112233 Some of the places I worked had some lousy ones, too. But I like the concept!
Would also be great for canning
I love the idea of those labels! Makes storing leftovers in reusable containers so much better as opposed to plastic that you would write on and then throw out.
I am a teacher. I have a laminator. I’ve already used 200 sleeves so far this summer. 😬 They are awesome for awards. Also any pieces of writing they do. It makes students feel more official.
Those labels are conceptually the same as date dots (sometimes called day dots) that are used in restaurants and other food service settings. They’re used for expiration (this chicken needs to be used up or thrown out end of day Saturday, 8/20). They’re even color coded by day (Sunday is Black, Monday is blue) for quick glances and have the day written out, plus a space to write the date. There are lots of different styles and you can probably find them cheaper by searching using food service terminology. The colored labels do bleed somewhat if you get them partially wet, but I never had it not come out with water & a bit of soap.
Thats similar to what we use at work but same dissolving method they are handy❕❗
We used day dots at Starbucks. They’re made of sugar and something else so that they’re easily removable with some water.
I always joke with my mom we need to buy some day dots, because we always forget when we made the leftovers in our fridge!
Missed you last week! Glad my Saturday routine is back in order 😂💕
Missed you all too!! 💗
Yes!!! It felt off
@@RachhLovesLife hi rach
For egg bites I just use a muffin pan (different size) and put them in the oven 😊 enough for the whole family.
Even when you get many fails, that is still useful information for folks. Even when the product fails for you, it might be useful to someone whose situation is not quite like yours. Because of the detail with which you show the products you use, they might see it being useful for them. Even giving someone an indication about how steep the learning curve might be for a product is really useful, too.
Your frustrations are as entertaining as your successes, and it's good to see someone giving these things a rigorous testing.
You need a cheese slicer, not a knife! Perfect thin slices, altough you might need to get the technique perfected if you're not used to it. Basically every household in the Nordic countries have one. I thought it was something everyone had, until I moved to the south of Europe and people didn't have it. One of my friends called mine "a cool gadget" and I just looked at them like "would you call a fork a cool gadget too?"
Look at IKEA for cheese slicer, they have one called Hjälpreda for ~$5.
Happy I'm not the only one who was thinking this!!
I know in Australia our commercial cheese is incredibly hard. Many accidents with cheese slicers lol
I absolutely love laminating stuff!
I get you, I have totally been tempted to buy a laminator every time I see them lately. I will say though, a cheap but less permanent alternative is those page protector sheets, the thin plastic sleeve you slide paper into that can go in a binder, TOTALLY work with dry erase markers. So if you can't go laminator or it's something you're going to change up more that it's not worth the full laminating, page protectors work GREAT.
I really liked that pencil case. The shape was nice for stacking or overall storage. Also having the dividers and different spaces for things. Definitely takes away some of the clutter that a pencil case usually has. Also easier to use because you can see everything you have instead of digging into a deeper one space pencil case
And here I am, procrastinating writing my masters thesis with watching your videos 😄 Wish I could go back to school
I loved the sandwich cutter for my twins when they were little. I used it almost daily. I made grilled cheese for them a lot then got into making pb&j. I didn’t just use it in the center of the sandwich though. I would press it a few times to ensure I got all the pieces of the sandwich.
That sandwich 🥪 gadget needs a blade on it & then it would be great. Edges are for us moms, our complementary snack for the work we do. 👍
I love this! I’m a teacher and I have my own laminator too! They’re a blast to have! Also…scissors disappear! I can’t count the times I’ve heard “I can’t find my scissors!” It’s a mystery!
Well we are over half way through the school year here in Australia, but I still love the northern hemisphere's back to school vids, makes me want to buy more and claim it's a refresher for the rest of the year, lol
Honestly this was such a fun video! Also, the pens reminded me of how neat it would be to see you try some products from Jetpens! They have loads of fun and cute pens/stationary related products. You might get a kick out of some like the mini vacuum for eraser dust, or the scissors made to cut your name and address from your mail, or the friction sensitive pens and stamps!
I have a laminator and it is so FUN and there are so many uses!! We do calendars and chore charts and flashcards....so many laminated things!
“Butter needs to melt, it’s delicious!” Words to live by
LoL if you thought the butter melting gang was harsh wait till you meet the people who do not think that is cheese 😂
I was already wondering. I'm from Germany and I have never seen cheese with several different colors in it. This looks like a mix of leftovers to me. Like the "ham" that is actually just glued together scrap pieces. 😅
Lol i thought it was some kind of butter at first
While I cannot answer for the cheese she has, I've seen that kind of multicoloured cheese here in Sweden, labelled as cheddar from England, so it might not be that bad =)
I’m staying away from laminators! I don’t trust those things-When I worked at a print shop whoever worked on the laminator got pregnant 😂
Rachel the fails are hilarious, you assembling the apple pen case is my favorite
There are no 'failure' Rachel videos! We both smiled several times and that is always a win! ❤ 😀👍
I saw those pens the other day, and I'm so glad I caught this! The eraser roller thing is cute!
Oh my gosh, those labels would be great for my pantry organizer bin things....
Pencil case would be good for crochet hooks and stuff too.
Hey Rachel, for a hack for your egg bites, if you want to make some for like four people for example use a cupcake tin, mix up you eggs, cheese, tomatoes, and deli meats if you want and then put them in greased muffin tins and bake them in the oven, they are so so good and you can just leave them in the oven. Xxxxx love you
Hey Shell. I use my instant pot to make egg bites. Similar time. Super results. You just need the little egg bit ‘mold’ and it makes 7, I think. They’re so good.
Laminators are so handy! You can make your own games, preserve artwork, keep favorite recipes clean and handy, make inspirational cards for your mirror, create roadtrip bingo cards or a Flat Stanley. Oh, and protect song lyrics for rock star showers 😀
Best sandwich cutting hack....is a pizza cutter, truely a game changer
Another teacher here! I love office supplies and I love laminators. If the kiddos have a favorite coloring page you can laminate it and they can color and wash it off. Maybe workbook pages with math or handwriting some thing that they have to repeat. And you don’t have to use just whiteboard Markers. They could color with crayons and just use like a magic eraser to clean it off. You should experiment with different things there’s so much fun. You can also three hole punch them and put them in a binder for safekeeping and reuse. You are amazing!
Rachel, These disappearing labels are perfect for canning jars! We have to label them and reuse them. Also, Tupperware with left overs! I am super excited about those.
Ooh brilliant! I like to make herbal tinctures and removing old labels is such a pain.
Also congrats on 700K! 🎉
You should get an osthyvel (a cheese slicer mainly used in the nordic countrys)
Makes slicing cheese so much easier! 😊
@@judithgout6124 It's a great little device 😊
that shit looks dangerous
Ooh! I want the sandwich cuber for French toast and sausage patties (vegan) and brownie bites and ... other things. 👍👍👍
Hey, sometimes it's just as helpful to know what not to buy 🙂 I always love your videos 👍
My kids liked sandwiches cut with cookie cutters. For tiny squares, your pizza cutter will do it quickly and easily.
Thrifty tip, save the trimmings in a freezer bag and when you have enough--breakfast casserole! 😊
For super quick single serve eggs: butter a ramekin, put 1 tsp water in the bottom, pour in lightly beaten eggs (or crack it in whole for poached). Microwave on high in 30 second intervals; it takes 1-3 turns, depending on your microwave. Done! Fluffy and delicious. Easy peasy 😊
I always look forward to your videos! Love how Christopher gives his opinions too lol.
Saturday! I enjoy my second coffee and watch your reviews and whatnot every week. t's a good start to the day. Very good videos and amazingly I'm not annoyed by Chris either lol unlike a lot of other channels out there hahaha.
We use those dissolving labels for our meal prep and other leftovers - so cool!
To make slicing the cheese easier: buy a cheese slicer!!(Boska does some nice ones) Would recommend the ones that have a bigger surface area (so not the ones that almost look like peelers)
In the Netherlands probably every household has at least one of those (if not several lol). Couldn’t imagine slicing cheese with a knife, must be so difficult to get kinda even slices haha
LOL I was just about to suggest this.
The sandwich cutter would be awesome for French toast! My kids throw fits if their French toast isn't small bit size, and I always burn my hands and try to cut them up with scissors. So that looks like a convenient time savor for this one specific ocassion
Please buy a cheese slicer. It’s gonna be a lifesaver. You can find them for really cheap at IKEA. It’s such a useful tool.
i really your vids cuz they are so realistic compared to the types of vids that try to sell u the product instead of a real opinion/recommendation. also love your personality
The labels! I need for meal prepping and dating food storage containers.
I have that pencil case for my to-go art supplies…and I love it. :) I may be such a dork…but I got excited that you were reviewing a product that I have. LOL
I have no kids and I’ve been out f school for 20+ years but I’m still a sucker for anything back to school related 😄
Love the first clip... it's like don't get your expectations too high. Love it ♥
Hey!! Love the videos, and LOOOVE laminating! Lamination tip from a teacher. You can pass 2 pouches through that laminator if you use the 5mm setting!
As a teacher my laminator is my favourite thing 😆 the Amazon basics sheets work great in them and don't break the bank!
I agree!
We ALWAYS do butter and then cream cheese! So good. Also, Dash makes a larger version of the egg bite maker. I believe it has 12 egg cups.
Would love to know what you and hubby were like in high school!? Love your videos!
Laminators are AWESOME!!! When I was working in Administration and needed to use one, it was my favorite part.
Am I going back to school? Nope. Do I have small humans who are going back to school? Also nope. Did I click on this video as soon as I got home, yep sure did!!x
...the Sharpie markers they told me they absolutely needed but never used... 🤣😂🤣🤣 been there sis
Those ads actually the usual pencil cases that everyone for their whole school, elementary, middle, high school and university uses in Italy 😊😊 here there are thousands of styles, color, fantasies
I worked with lunchbites a long time ago when my kiddo was in Elementary school and I made bento style lunches for her. There are some tricks to using it but to be honest, not worth it at all. If you have a knife you can be your own square cutter! What a Concept 😮
Oohhhhh Herman! What a beautiful soul. I am definitely buying these. It’s a need. Not a want. A NEED 😂
A laminator is one of my favorite purchases. I’m Autistic and making write on/off sheets has been so helpful to my daily living.
Your channel jumped up on to my TH-cam recommendations and I am really glad it did! Subscribing now!!
Ooohh...Your nail polish color is life!
I worked in childcare for over ten years, and laminating things is amazing! The company I worked for us very expensive, but they do not use that money for good. They don't buy supplies, new toys for the children, learning curriculum, or paying their teachers. I started using clear contact paper to laminate my curriculum. It's extremely cheap, but it does require a little bit more work, but I always thought it was worth it; especially when I habe to pay out of pocket for everything!
Rachel! We have the fun bites cutter and love it. When I put the second piece through after cutting. I do it from the opposite end. So all the pieces get pushed back through the top and out. Always works! Try it again!
For anyone wanting to use a plastic whatever cutter for sandwiches, the trick is to cut it as far through as you can top down, then, without removing the cutter, flip it over and kinda press along the edge(s) of the cutter. Because bread is weird.
Also, the big cookie cutters that are like plastic and fun shapes? Perfect for toddler/little kid sandwiches.
Also, life hack if your kids (or you) like eggs in a hole (or whatever you call it) it's pretty easily done in the oven (just make sure to butter/mayo both sides of the bread: top so it doesn't burn and gets nice and crunchy crisp and bottom so it doesn't let the egg spread as much as possible and a little crisp)
We like to put the middle part on top as like a little "hat" but I also thought using them as like "crackers" or "mini toast" or whatever could be cute and fun for kids.
Fun PENS?! I'm in!
I've noticed I click the 'Like' button on all your videos before they have even started! I love them. 🤣🤣❤👍
Teacher hack: don’t want to buy a laminator as they are expensive and faffy? Simply use a plastic wallet.
They wipe off better with the dry wipe markers and kids love taking the sheet of paper out afterwards and seeing their writing on the see through plastic.
Cheap and easy!
Also more environmentally friendly as well which is nice. And a lot of those sheets have holes in them so you could put them in a binder or something to keep organized
@@xiaminfinitex exactly!
That funbite food cutter would be good on pancakes, especially sheet pancakes. Little bite sized pieces for syrup dipping!
Ooo good idea!
Laminators are the absolute best. I have one I mostly use in a workplace capacity. But. I also have laminated versions of favorite post it shapes so I can reuse them. Have made magnets of them. Laminate "awards" for employees so they can pin them on. Let me tell you, nobody ever grows out of ribbons, stickers, or certificates. A reward system that works with kindergarteners also works with grown adult men and women.
LMAO so the sandwich thing that leaves the big border... Maybe this thing is good for mom's and dads who are trying to cut down their own portions. Perfect for dieters! 🤣😂
I love y'all Soo much!!! I have watch almost everyone of ur vids😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️
Your excitement over the laminator is exactly why I love your videos lol.
Love the chaotic energy in this video😂
Do I need a laminater? No. Have I always wanted one? Absolutely.
The frog is adorable and those labels would be perfect when you’re bringing a potluck dish somewhere. I always want to use my pretty stuff but yet I don’t want to label it and put a stupid sticker on it you know.
No joke…was just laminating something for my kids when you started talking about the laminator lololol!!!!!
if I was in school and taking notes everyday I would absolutely need those pens! lol
Love all the successful ones.
That sandwich cutter for the squares would be great for like pancakes for little ones!! Or cutting cheese into squares?
We love to make “egg muffins”
We just cook omelette in silicone muffin forms in the oven ☺️
Just as easy as the machine, but you can mass produce them if you need to ☺️
Was going to say the same thing
I do this too. I add cheese and breakfast sausage. Sometimes just cheese. 2 for a minute in the microwave and I’ve got breakfast!
You haven't finished, but I can't imagine that sandwich thing working with toasted bread. 🤔 Nut or sun butter on soft bread seems like the only thing that could stay together.
What you need is a "Swedish cheese slicer". Its crazy that it isnt a thing all over the world to cut cheese. Try it and you will love it!
Darn it. Now I want a laminator too!!! That looked FUN!!! 💜😍💜
Ok Rachel, hear me out! Get a cheese slicer. It’s a very common to have them in Finland, Sweden etc. It makes slicing cheese to easy and you get the same thickness on every slice!
Early, love your videos you are so underrated
I always love your videos, such entertainment as well as good to know about some of those "products" . I love that you named the 🐸 Herman because about 20 years ago when my son was 2, he was given a frog (stuffed animal) for his birthday I think. When we asked him what he was going to name him, we thought he was saying Kermit but he was actually saying Herman!💚🐸😂🤣
I love your channels! Whenever you’re goofy I laugh so much. Omg I need to buy those label
Happy Saturday ❤️❤️ Whoo hoo congratulations on 700k!!!
My son fell in love with the easers! They come Thursday lol
Omg I have the yellow version of that pencil case, I love it so much and fits everything I need for exams. Mine hasn’t ripped and I have a calculator, glue stick, rubber and sharpener in the bottom half and then my pens, pencils and whiteboard pens in the pocket, plus crayons in the mesh pocket. Loved this video even if it wasn’t successful 😂
I'm assuming the link to the toaster is the Amazon must haves? Regardless, I always love the videos ❤ keep em comin... or don't! Do what's best for you ❤
Also... Your nail color?!??!? I hafta know what that is 😍
The laminator is also great for crafting. You can use it to make cool window cards and to do hot foiling.
Love your shirt!!❤️💜
Just a suggestion for quick omelettes make scrambled eggs batter with your add-ins then put in sandwich bag take sandwich bag and put in boiling water for a few minutes and bang individual perfect omelet you can make several at a time and you just cut off the sandwich bag
Plastic bags are not made to be safe at boiling, you are leaching a ton of plastic chemicals directly in your food if you do that.
Ball canning has had dissolvable labels for years now. Great for canning during the summer and then when you eat the jam, you can put the entire jar into the dishwasher and don't have to worry about the label gunking up the mechanism!
I have 3 kids going back to school and I'm a teacher. I liked watching this. Frankly, it was all a pass for me, but fun to watch. :)
When the top jumped off the Apple Pencil case thingie, I almost died! 🤣
We have a laminator at work and loved it but then I realized that I could use sheet protectors for the same thing! Way way cheaper! Dry erase wipes off the same way! Luv the videos!
