Wow I can't say my cat hasn't done something like Penny did. I bet that hurt. I hope you get feeling better from the cold as well. Beautiful day there, same here today. Penny is such a cutie.
Hi Matthew. I could tell you were tired because you were dragging your left foot while filling your heater. Also you could be reacting to your new bed. I've heard they sometimes let off gasses when they are new. Maybe that's why you only feel bad laying down. No matter what it is I'm hoping you feel better soon.😊
Regarding cooking bacon, by adding water, to start, enough to cover bacon , allowing bacon to cook until the water is gone, then start flipping , this gets the fat rendered from bacon while fully cooking bacon , this method keeps bacon from splattering grease everywhere, once tbe water evaporates, the bacon browns nicely. From a great grammie in florida , learned this tip years ago, also by slicing bacon in the package in half, & cooking the half slices , a big fry pan is not necessary & the other half of pack not used , is easier to store in same pack, folded up & stowed in a zip lock.
Hi Matthew, long time viewer, never a commenter.🤔 Anyway, I too was divorced, had my allotted time with my girls. Watching you living this life takes me to a place that I keep locked away. I know we wanna stay positive, I am. However, few realize the pain anguish that you are living with. I love your content, I am full time Van lifer 5 yrs. I can't offer advice, just wanted you to know profound empathy lives here. Your doing great, keep em coming .
I LOVE using my induction cooktop in the summer when I don't want to add more heat to my rolling home. In cold months, I want a flame to both cook and add warmth.
Sitting in my “small” class a RV, enjoying dinner and a video! I’m in Florida by the beach in a very beautiful park surrounded by trees and palms. Love viewing your mountains. ❤️ Kindred spirits.
That’s why I like my trusty propane stove.Nice looking breakfast burrito I’m trying that with some jalepenos too. Love the music and seeing the pirate princess with the best dad a girl could ask for.
I cut the bacon in half with scissors and put the other half in baggie! I would probably cook the bacon over on the flip up table by the door to keep the grease off the bedding. New build is really coming together. Love all these flip up tables!😊
Matthew if you make more bacon than you need, you can always put the leftovers in the ziplock and just reheat it quickly when you want to use it and make more meals while cooking it once…just a suggestion 🤷🏼♀️ …guess you can tell I hate cooking bacon 🥴…love to eat it though 😉
YAY ...cooking with chef Matthew!🙌🎉. That bacon 'imposter, wish it was, wanna be' ...STILL does LOOK YUMMY!😋🤭. The countertop space is ABSOLUTELY a 'WIN'!👍🤗💖😇 ...LUV IT!😊.
Being selfish, I enjoy your pace of putting out videos. That being said I agree with living in the moment. You gotta take care of you my friend. 😁🐈🚐🏕️🥃🌮🌮🇨🇦we all need to enjoy life👍
I don’t know much on building but, your door to the electrical section seems to be too long and looks like it is bowing in the middle. Do you need a strut in the middle or some kind of support? What kind of main meal was that? Looked yummy! Brooklyn I’m sure is glad to have daddy back in town…as you are quality content in her life. Love Penny always.😊😊
For the nose and the snot get Tylenol Cold and Sinus Extra Strength. Take two. It will clear out the snot and keep it clear for about 8 to 10 hours. It’s how I deal with my allergies in the spring.
Suggestion - pick up a screen or mesh lid for frying to help contain grease splatters. Walmart offers a Mainstay 2 (in large and medium sizes) piece set in Usa for $8.88. Just a thought. BTW, Great kitchen cooking cubicle!! 👍 Happy coincidence! 😋?
Awesome, Awesome, Awesome!! shot of you running beside Brooklyn on her bike. Shared fun!!! but close enough to help if needed, and any necessary protection!!! What a wonderful Father you are! Would have been fun to hear her comments on Lucky's new design. 😜
Matthew, I suspect you've developed a pollen allergy. It's spring and the tree pollen has been really bad this year here in the States. Get an antihystimine nasel spray (i.e. Flonase) and use it before bed. Should help keep you from getting stuffed up and improve your sleep.
You should drill an access hole to pull the cord through the side of the board by the strut that lifts it up so you don’t have to have the bed sit on top of the cord and bend it the cord you should get like a mechanic little chair with wheels that spins in 360😂
Uh oh, sorry Penny landed on your face. Nice looking breakfast! Sounds like you might have allergies! Enjoy your time with Brooklyn! Quality content as always! Keep smiling!
Hi Matthew, I really enjoy watching your videos. I have learned a lot watching you making your van home comfy. I'm starting to get my tool box equipped with the tools I should have.
Mmm roasted garlic!! Omg I've been in the men's latrine again 🤣 Daughter on bike, Daddy running along side. Precious memories made. 🥰 Hope you're feeling much better now 🤗🙏
Hello Matthew and Penny.Ya make me so happy to see ya when am down and feeling down in thy dumpes ya brighten my dayv and make my day go by bright and easy.Love ya and Penny.❤❤
A piece of wood as thin as possible so not to loose to much space. Wedged by 2 flat corner brackets. I'm sure you'll figure it out if you haven't already lol. I know all to well what you mean about getting settled in again. I live it every spring as I move to the trailer from basecamp and still also part-time in the van all four seasons. Have a beautiful week Matthew, take care. PS if your having lots of sinus blockage get a soft ice pack from the dollar store and put it on the bridge of your nose.
Hello Matthew and Penny. Two things. Loved Fall Out, and I'm an old lady! Watched the kids playing the game. The other thing is, I cook a whole package of bacon at a time, for the bacon grease. Then bag it up for sandwiches and salads. That way I only have to clean up the grease spray once. #boxvanlife. They have splatter screens at the dollar store too. Love your mellow days. You can make everything entertaining.
Matthew, what a wonderful video ! It’s so great to see your new tiny home on wheels 😊. You are such an inspiration. I’m getting my van tomorrow aka Saturday the 5/11. It’s a Travato 59 KL 😁. I’m from Vermont and I’m planning a trip too California. Please keep sharing your thoughts and experiences. I watch your videos everyday.
That was a great video Matthew. Now you can cook even more food in the van. I hope you’re going to enjoy weekends weather, it’s going to be nice. Oh you got some cool presents. We love the quality content. Have a great weekend Matthew. See you in the next one. PS: Justice For Penny!!!! PPS: The sound is fine
I'm gonna give your breakfast burrito idea a go, that looks yummy. I've been using an induction stove for 4 yrs now, best thing ever, 2 tips, just in case, the stove needs to run on power until the fan stops, then you need to either turn off AC or unplug as it will continue to use about 180W.
If I buy bacon to cook at Walmart I cut the package in half and put half in a Ziplock bag in the freezer. Right now I buy a pack of cooked bacon since I'm alone.
Temp fluctuations does wreak havoc with some people. It was mid 80s°F in the beginning of the week and dropped down to 40-60 later on, making some of my relatives sick 😷
Hey Handsome 👋 I thought you sounded sick or maybe allergies . I would like to suggest a new scratching post for the sweet Penny. I have been a loyal follower since forever, retired for about 5 years now, and I'm missing work , I loved my job 😢. I envy your lifestyle and wish I was in better health to venture out. Not gonna bore you with my issues but I want you to know that I think of you often and seriously thoroughly enjoy your quality content (I'm a 50's kid) I'm impressed with your cookin skills! I've been meaning to ask for awhile now, what is up with Penny's voice? None of my fur balls sounded like sweetums. Enjoy taking time out for a slower paced life and don't forget to smell the roses. ❤ from your girl from Ontario. You are 1 dude. handsome dude
Matthew, you're such good company. Love seeing you and Brooklyn as always. That sequence was so beautifully shot, and with the perfect music...it brought tears to my eyes. And thank you for the breakfast burrito idea! Gonna do that SOON.
Such a lovely video Matthew. Watching you run along with Brooklyn was delightful! How good did it feel to be able to do that? She's getting so good on her bike! Congratulations on the inaugural cooktop meal. I'm glad the clothesline could be relocated for ease of use! Thank you again Matthew. You're the best.
Love watching you Matthew. Why not cut your bacon pkg in half or even thirds easier to store and seperate. Looks like you had a beautiful evening with Brooking brings back so many awesome memories..
So, the wife and I are down in Florida at a concert called Rockville, and I see a place selling Dixon shirts. So I told them about you and how you only buy Dixon flannels. ;-)
Hello Matthew and Penny! Mri results are in..... There is NOT a tumor!
That’s amazing!! ❤❤❤
Excellent! That’s WONDERFUL!
That’s great news
That is fabulous news! I scheduled thumb surgery for June 14th today! ❤❤
That is probably the best new I've heard in a while ,gratz
Has everyone given Matthew a LIKE for his efforts and bringing us this video???! Can’t be easy moving that camera around with every task! 😀
Absolutely LIKED!👍
I always hit the thumbs up before I even watch! 🐺🐱🐱
Matthew I am amazed at your camera work. Very expert and entertaining. Thank you.❤
Very happy news, though I read that good news in Arnold Schwarzenegger's voice.
The problem with extension cords is they only make them in two sizes- too long and too short😋
I had a 50' or 75' that I cut down into about 1/3 and 2/3.
I look so forward to your videos every day! Im alone so you're my "dinner date" at supper time every night. Great company!
This grandma can enjoy as if you were a son or grandson.❤
@@janet1744 Yeah, I see Matthew more like a little brother or cousin...sometimes a PITA but I'll always have his back 😉
Oh No! I must have given you my cold!!
Watching your videos ALWAYS makes my day. Thank you and Penny for including us in your lives. 😁
come on ppl help share this amazing videos this guy should have thousands of subs. Love from South Africa
Tightrope for a mouse ...that earned 5 smiles by itself😂
I'm amazed at how good Penny is. Doesn't run off ect. She's a great road cat forsure.
Wow I can't say my cat hasn't done something like Penny did. I bet that hurt. I hope you get feeling better from the cold as well. Beautiful day there, same here today. Penny is such a cutie.

😲Never saw a BREAKFAST BURRITO 👀 made like that before!?🤔 ...hummmmm, I've got to try that!👍☺️
This is how I teach my kiddos and their friends. It's a great way for them to have easy success cooking their meals themselves💕🌸
@@abbylynn8872 EXCELLENT!👍🤗💖😇

❤ Thank you Matthew for sharing your life with us. What a beautiful little family you have.❤
You might consider cooking on the other pop up counter near the door. It’s away from your bed.
Everything is working out very well👍
Maybe you will want to use the cooktop on the other table so grease doesn’t land on your bedding

Good evening Matthew and Penny. Raised in the 90s oh God I’m old!
Me as well 😂
Me too...whew!
Put your safety belt on, it's going to go fast. I was born in 1964 and raised in the 60's and 70's. Seems like yesterday I was 21.
😊 I enjoy watching how you place the camera and move about or drive off as if you have a whole crew 📽 🎬😊👍
YAY ...cooking with chef Matthew!🙌🎉. That bacon 'imposter, wish it was, wanna be' ...STILL does LOOK YUMMY!😋🤭. The countertop space is ABSOLUTELY a 'WIN'!👍🤗💖😇 ...LUV IT!😊.
42:45 ...Daddy/Daughter time PRECIOUS👧💛🧔 and ALWAYS for the 'WIN'!👍🤗💖😇. Nice song selection tooooo!🎉🙌
PRETTY Penny is such a 'CUTIE' in this video/vlog!👍🤗💖🐱
Being selfish, I enjoy your pace of putting out videos. That being said I agree with living in the moment. You gotta take care of you my friend. 😁🐈🚐🏕️🥃🌮🌮🇨🇦we all need to enjoy life👍
Your kitchen is luxurious, it has a U- shape, lot’s of workspace! A very successful build❤
I don’t know much on building but, your door to the electrical section seems to be too long and looks like it is bowing in the middle. Do you need a strut in the middle or some kind of support? What kind of main meal was that? Looked yummy! Brooklyn I’m sure is glad to have daddy back in town…as you are quality content in her life. Love Penny always.😊😊
Test the strength of the wall mount spice rack by exchanging the filled spice tubs and see if they stay on the wall.
So nice just hanging out with you & sweet Penny. 🥰💞😘🍀🏴☠️
In deed, Jackie!👍🤗💖😇
Cooking with Matthew! Love it.
Ooooh! Tim tams! You'll have to do the timtam slam!
Lovely seeing Brooklyn riding bike, shes growing fast..... love to you and all your family..
Isn't she getting tall? Her legs are stretching out. She is at a fun age for sure.
So cute, Penny purring as you feed her treats! 😋
Yes it is quality content❣️
It’s amazing how fast the pirate princess is growing up!!!
For the nose and the snot get Tylenol Cold and Sinus Extra Strength. Take two. It will clear out the snot and keep it clear for about 8 to 10 hours. It’s how I deal with my allergies in the spring.
YAY ...gift opening timeeeee!👍🤗💖🎉
Suggestion - pick up a screen or mesh lid for frying to help contain grease splatters. Walmart offers a Mainstay 2 (in large and medium sizes) piece set in Usa for $8.88. Just a thought. BTW, Great kitchen cooking cubicle!! 👍 Happy coincidence! 😋?
thats alot of power for one meal
Galley Kitchen for Pirates! Not cubicles for paper pushers! 😊
Awesome, Awesome, Awesome!! shot of you running beside Brooklyn on her bike. Shared fun!!! but close enough to help if needed, and any necessary protection!!! What a wonderful Father you are! Would have been fun to hear her comments on Lucky's new design. 😜
Hey Matthew and Penny.....Penny be chillaxing..🐱🐱...that's cute..sniffles...I can relate..it's Heartwarming to see you playing with Brooklyn.
Just noticed Matthew you’re a fridge raider top with a very large cutting board would be the perfect place for that to cut up food
I’m giggling away watching you use your fingers cooking and yelling hawt hawt!
You are an awesome dad. Thank you for sharing your journey ❤
Hope you get to feeling better soon.
Matthew, I suspect you've developed a pollen allergy. It's spring and the tree pollen has been really bad this year here in the States. Get an antihystimine nasel spray (i.e. Flonase) and use it before bed. Should help keep you from getting stuffed up and improve your sleep.

Every time I hear "self-tapper" my brain replaces it with "Jake Tapper" it makes no sense but occasionally it's funny.
Awesome video as always 😊. I'm going to try and make your breakfast wrap it looks delicious 😊
Uh oh, sorry Penny landed on your face. Nice looking breakfast! Sounds like you might have allergies! Enjoy your time with Brooklyn! Quality content as always! Keep smiling!
Hi Matthew, I really enjoy watching your videos. I have learned a lot watching you making your van home comfy. I'm starting to get my tool box equipped with the tools I should have.
Matthew, I really like watching you when you cook & I really like your new setup...
Letting the video play in the background till the end to help with the algorithm 😊
👀 With the power draw of the induction stove
Loved the footage of you running next to your little girl while she was riding her bike. Good stuff Dad.
Mmm roasted garlic!!
Omg I've been in the men's latrine again 🤣
Daughter on bike, Daddy running along side. Precious memories made. 🥰
Hope you're feeling much better now 🤗🙏
Birdsong is food for the soul (aka Mother Nature’s soundtrack). ❤
Hoping you're feeling better could be allergies , I never had a problem with pollen till a fee yrs back

That was a great video Matthew. Now you can cook even more food in the van. I hope you’re going to enjoy weekends weather, it’s going to be nice. Oh you got some cool presents. We love the quality content. Have a great weekend Matthew. See you in the next one.

The egg carton is absorbing moisture from the fridge that’s why it’s going limp like that
I'm happy you still have an eye! I sleep with an eye mask to protect me from my little hooligans! Night zoomies. They have no manners at all! 😹
Your sound is already great. You are one of the best “audios” I follow and I pretty much follow all different genres! Don’t change a thing!

omg.. new diesel heater tank hole action!!!
Matthew check walmart camping section for plastic egg carton for your eggs or a camping store!
If I buy bacon to cook at Walmart I cut the package in half and put half in a Ziplock bag in the freezer. Right now I buy a pack of cooked bacon since I'm alone.
Hope you feel better soon I am praying for you and penny

I loved this video! I enjoy seeing you with Brooklyn and Penny. I’m stealing the clothes line hack for my rig. 🌞🌞
You built yourself a cubicle indeed! LMFAO! Watch out for the water dispenser talk with Bobby from HR lol.
