10:06 I had a major stroke 7 years ago caused by a rare blood clot. I am paralyzed in my dominant right hand. I cook and bake, but I can’t feel my right hand, and whenever I carry to the kitchen to the table, my right hand can’t hold it. This is perfect for me, a wine glass and a plate combined! Genius!
Watching this video I realise that Canada is as Britain for mixing imperial and metric randomly in daily life. Rachel's oven temps are imperial and her liquid measurements are metric. Love it.
Yeah, we use celcius for regular temperature but Fahrenheit for oven (I also use it for body temperature but I know others who use celcius for that), meters for distance, but feet for height, grams/kg/L for most things, but pounds for body weight. It's interesting
Rachel: it’s a great gift for someone who likes camping, also Rachel: you will also have to gift the a gooseneck cattle😅 That’s some fancy Camping you are planning! Maybe Chris can wear his formal Baseball cap on that trip😂
Having used that sort of snack tray, you have to remember to separate them before setting down, because they don't counterbalance. The only advantage is you have a hand free for snacking, which is also accomplished by balancing a tapas plate on top of your glasse ;-)
That salmon looked delicious. Can we have a cooking with Chris series where he just shows us how to make some of the good food that randomly pops up in these videos?
I think you're confusing Gen X and Boomers. I'm Gen X and there were no $37,000 houses when I bought my first house 😂 Also, my parents had party trays like that in the 80s
I’ve been wanting one of the Stanley Pour-over sets but it did have a flaw that you accidentally discovered. The set, according to Amazon, comes with Stanley’s well-known 12 oz. camp mug, but the “cone” can hold up to 20 oz. and the instructions seem to have a recipe that is made for fully filling the cone. However the included cup can only hold 12. There is always some water loss from it remaining in the grounds, but not 8 oz. worth. You can buy the filter part by itself, but I like the look of the set. So, I plan to use my preferred 16 oz. cup and adjusting the ratio for that size. I’m not as picky, but true coffee aficionados will follow an exact ratio weighing both the beans and the water. Still learning some of the coffee sciences, but it has encouraged me to learn and prefer the metric system (and I hate the traditional standard of a “cup” of coffee being 6 oz. to add to a learner’s confusion). Try the Clever Coffee Dripper. It looks like a pour-over but is considered more like an immersion brewer like a French press. The larger version is closer to 16 oz. so I use an appropriate size cup. It cleans up easily using a paper filter, though I did learn to watch and adjust for occasional, slight leakage.
I love the Full Time Pasta Lover sweatshirt! Pasta is my absolute favorite food group. Lol I was recently at a food and wine festival and they had little plastic plates with the wine glass holder so you could easily walka round with your glass and plate. If you're going to be standing and walking around a lot, something like that is perfect.
Love this! I'm South African and I love seeing all the stuff you guys in North America have. Also, watching Rachel cut apart that bunch of grapes with a knife was giving me the heebie-jeebies. Try using scissors. Way less chance of stabbage!
Girl I know you love your simple modern but you gotta try the Brumate Era….soooo good. Beats out all others in my book. You can lock the straw so it’s 100% leakproof unlike Stanley and SM.
I’m Gen-X and wouldn’t be caught dead using those “wine glass trays” LOL!!😂 I’m with Christopher all the way on this one,,,, LOVE YOUR CHANNEL ❤️💚🎄🎅🏻🤶🏻
The cloche is very pretty, but I bought the rocks, glass topper smoker for my husband for Father’s Day, and he uses it all the time! Saves space, and you get a better effect
Love my straw “buddies” for my Stanley. I’m sorry you didn’t have a great experience with the Stanley. Here in AZ they are a life saver (literally) for my kids that are life guards to stay hydrated in the 100+degree heat. The straw covers are really more for the germaphobe in me. But also my cup is easy to identify in big crowds of people that have the same color Stanley as me. Oh! You should check out the straw covers that are tiny Stanley cups! SO cute!
After watching the infused smoke bit (fabulous name idea) I just want you and Chris to do a whole episode on different ones that are out there. Testing out food and drinks. I love a smoky flavor.
The little charcuterie boards remind me of these little crystal dishes my mother-in-law uses for baby or wedding showers. The are kind of oversized plates that have a matching teacup that fit perfectly into a a little hollowed out spot.
As a solely red wine drinker i honestly forgot white wine existed, so when Christopher poured wine from the bottle I was genuinely perplexed thinking he was pouring water into the glass😂
Since you guys loved the smokey old fashioned i HIGHLY recommend getting a smokey whiskey to make your okd fashioned with or quit frankly to use to give a smokey hint to your favourite cocktails :) soms suggestions are; + banriach the smokey ten + Ardbeg Uigeadail (aged in ex bourbon or sherry barrels!) +Compass box peaty monster
Thank you! I was hoping someone pointed out that they are one generation off on the house pricing. My parents are the WWII era and they paid $12,500 for their home.
OMG, those straw covers are EXACTLY what I need!! I always have my Simple Modern cup next to me at my desk and I keep a cloth covering the straw hole at all times, which is quite inconvenient! The reason for this is that one day my son was freaking out bcuz he was about to take a sip of his water when a spider crawled out of the straw! Since then I am paranoid and need to have my straw covered when I'm not sipping!
I remember the snack tray from the mid eighties. White porcelain and prone to chipping. Hardly anyone used them. Some people put their thumb or a finger where the glass goes and got stuck.😂 They didn't know how to use them and sometimes the tray had to be smashed with a hammer to free a thumb or finger. I wondered why a hammer had to be rushed from the garage to the kitchen. A loudly cursing man had a tray stuck on finger and demanded a hammer. It's a small hole and fingers and thumbs must be forced into it.
The squeezy oxo measuring cups work well instead of a gooseneck kettle for pour overs. You can squeeze it so only a thin stream of water pours at a time.
6:02 Could you pour water into the mug, then put it in gooseneck kettle? Then just add a little more water? FYI I LOVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS ESPECIALLY THESE GIFT IDEAS-yes I’m yelling because they are GREAT!!❤
I have the Simple Modern classic cups (the ones without handles) and the straw appears to be much smaller than yours. I bet the other straw covers would fit those!
I was a bartender that smoked drinks. The reason you didn’t have a lot of smoke is because you didn’t have a powerful flame. You get the best results with about a tablespoon of chips per drink and fired up with a butane lighter. Don’t open the canister! It’ll just undo your hard work! It should fill with smoke quickly and then you just let it sit in the smoke for as long as you want for desired smokiness
I use a fine ground for my V60 pour over. Course grinds are too weak. The finer grind keeps contact with water longer. Also, I use a Pyrex measuring cup for pouring water, works just fine. I like 19-20 g coffee to 12-14 oz water ratio. I bought an insulated mug for my coffee, and it seems to make my coffee taste metallic. I might try it again.
The charcuterie plates are so you only need two hands instead of three. You still need at least one fully-functional hand to properly grip the plate on glass combo, but it’s better than holding a glass basically under your arm (or boobs) in order to eat. I think the use case here is standing/mingling parties. If everyone is at a table/counter/bar, they’re completely unnecessary.
The straw covers are the BEST invention. I hate the idea of dust or germs getting in my water. 👏🏼 Also, $37,000 for a whole house? 2023 us couldn’t even dream of that!
I got further in the video and have a fantastic tip- use the smoker on indoor s'mores. You can melt your marshmallow with a torch and then smoke the whole s'more. I saw someone do this in a final plate in culinary school- it was amazing. Get creative with it, not just cocktails.
Those little cutting boards with the wine glasses would be is helpful at a party with a bunch of people where there aren't tables or places to sit and you're trying to eat but don't have a place to put your drink.
Just looking at the wine glasses compared to the screen shot of the more expensive ones, the expensive ones do look better quality. If you don't use them a lot, then I think the dupe would be fine like to give with a bottle of wine. I completely agree with Rach on the trays, they aren't necessary, but would be a cute idea for a wine party, and I am Gen X in case that matters. Garlic roaster would be a great housewarming gift!
We make that kind of pour over coffee, we keep the top (coffee grounds) part of the cup when filling with water. Let the water sit in the grounds for a couple minutes THEN place it over the cup to dispense. You overfilled because your water was already draining into the cup once you started pouring, also making weak coffee. Pour over coffee is delicious but it is different from your carafe coffee.
The wine glass/tray thing is very common at wine tasting events. I guess being in California I have seen it many, many time. You can't hold your plate and a glass AND eat if you're standing or walking around and have nowhere to set one of your items down.
I’m probably wrong, but that head on the beer thing really only matters with stouts, porters, or ambers. I used to work in an Irish bar and I don’t recall anyone being concerned about a head on their pint of lager. Maybe if someone buys Guinness in a glass bottle and wants to try to get the head at home, this might work? Guinness in a can with the nitrous canister inside should do the trick, tho… I’d be worried I bust out a front tooth with that stone free floating at the bottom of my glass.
I'm Gen X (1974) and those trays look like something my parents would have used in the 70s. My parents are the very end of the generation before boomers. Also, our first house was 235K and it was a duplex. And we were in our 30s when we bought it. I think location plays heavily in how expensive houses are/were. But I do think the wine glasses are cute. 😊
So not sure if you have this in Canada but I found thins thing called liquid smoke, I cook with it and it works decently for the flavor. I use it since I’m a renter who’s not allowed to have a grill/ smoker. Would love to know your thoughts!
My grandparents had plates like that with places for glasses that were from Europe. We used them at parties... in the eighties. Lol nothing new. Gen x here, and it was two raspberries and a carton of eggs 🥚 😂

I could watch these two testing stuff for hours. I’m not even kitchen-y, but they are just so entertaining together. 😊
The Breville smoker and cloche is amazing. Highly recommend!

The brand Joanie do a knitted cardigan with a pasta pattern. It is awesome
Pasta is my favorite food, so I think you sweatSHIRT is adorable!!!!!!!!!
I’m an elder millennial and I’m here for the wine glasses and cheese plate combo. Seriously, that’s an adult lunchable and I need it. 😂
Millennial as well and I like it, too. I have having a drink and plate in my hands. So awkward when you want to pick up something to eat.
Love this! I'm South African and I love seeing all the stuff you guys in North America have.
Also, watching Rachel cut apart that bunch of grapes with a knife was giving me the heebie-jeebies. Try using scissors. Way less chance of stabbage!
Girl I know you love your simple modern but you gotta try the Brumate Era….soooo good. Beats out all others in my book. You can lock the straw so it’s 100% leakproof unlike Stanley and SM.
I used the straw covers for my Stanley on my cruise and 10/10 do recommend
The straw covers are good for nurses! We like to cover our drinks in the nourishment rooms!!!
I’m not influenced very easily usually, but Rachel’s raving reviews of the simply modern made me cave. I’m obsessed! Good recommendation Rachel!
I’m Gen-X and wouldn’t be caught dead using those “wine glass trays” LOL!!😂 I’m with Christopher all the way on this one,,,, LOVE YOUR CHANNEL ❤️💚🎄🎅🏻🤶🏻
Would love to learn Chris’s cocktail recipes!! Especially this old fashioned 😁

Yes! I had WW2 vintage ones.
Yes!! They had like olives and baby pickles in them! 😂😂
You should know that I have bought gifts based on your recommendations. Thankyou! This really makes my gift shopping easier.
I look forward to your videos every Saturday. They've recently been getting incorporated into every one of my cozy Saturdays. 😊
My favorite coffee shop has a smoker for a few of their drinks. My go to is smoked salted caramel coffee. It’s delicious!

I have never been this early to an upload!!!! I hope you and your family are having a wonderful holiday season!
I'm Gen-X and $37,000 is more like the price my Boomer parents paid for a house. THEIR parents paid a raspberry. 😉
Actually my first house was 39,500 lol my parents was around 16,000. 1st house was 2 bedroom 1 bath with unfinished basement. On an acre lot I was 19.
Thank you! I was hoping someone pointed out that they are one generation off on the house pricing. My parents are the WWII era and they paid $12,500 for their home.
@@mom71161wow! That’s awesome! What area was it in?
We paid 50k in 2004. Parents paid 18k in 1970. Grandparents rented on one side, and the other side bought their farm for a raspberry 😅
Yeah, a starter house in my area back then would have been more like $137.000. That would be for a very small one story box with 2 bedrooms.

Yeah... Stanley made you a weak cup of coffee because you diluted it with overfilling. Stanley deserves another shot! :D (ounces vs milliliters?)
Yeah, I think she misread the directions. I looked it up and the cup is only 12 ounces. It goes up to 20 ounces if you want to fill a bigger vessel.
9:22 colored wine glasses make it easy to keep track of whose glass is whose.
You should do a viral Christmas dinner recipes or Christmas dinner hacks video…… I would LOVE the help 😂
Lol, yeah the $37,000 houses were the boomers, not Gen X. I wish! Great gift ideas Rachel❤
I’m not crazy about Stanley items. I have the tumbler and my Yeti is 100% better. my sister loves her SM one. I DO love the pasta sweatshirt ❤

We host a lot and the appetizer plates save me from losing my drink since I don’t need to set it down to eat.
