Unreal 😮
Such an adorable little greenhouse
Good comprehensive list. Interesting thoughts on the clothing sizes and such. We have put back some of the clothes "I've grown out of" that are still good.
That's great. I have been slowly buying some smaller sizes at bag sales from second hand stores.😄
Enjoyed this informative video. I've already got my own surplus supply going too from various trips to Dollar Tree. Sorry about your husband's finger - ouch. 😬 How is the Canadian economy? I'm a Temu fan as well.
I am happy to hear you have already started stocking up. I as well LOVE the dollar stores 😄 My husbands finger has healed very nicely and he has not complained of any issues so that is 1 more thing we have learned in this journey. We are very blessed. The economy here - well lets just say we have more people than ever living on the streets because they lost everything. I think this next year will be so hard for so many.
I love the canned chicken. I drain it and rinse once, then heat it in butter & taco seasonings & use it for quick Chicken Quesadillas. (Add your favorite cheese &/ or Jalapeños), flour tortillas, quick & delicious.
That sounds really good. I will have to try that for sure. Thank you. 😀
Thanks for remind us to clean our jars
Not a big fan of the canned chicken either but I've made a gravy, added the chicken water and all maybe add your potatoes and a can of carrots - you have chicken stew. For the corned beef I'd add the potatoes and top it with an egg if possible. Hope this helps make these more palatable. 👍
great ideas thank you.
Love your video
thank you 😄
Nice video!
Thank you. Appreciate that. 😀
I. Totally disagree on food prepping it’s a lot of crap it’s all in your head just buy as u need if. U good prep it’s being greedy and then. Theirs not much for the rest of. Us in Australia. We don’t food prep we buy what we need
We all think differently on this, and that is totally fine you don't agree. Everyone's circumstances are different. If you just buy a couple extra items a week it doesn't put any strain on the food supply system. There is always extremists I agree that is not what I am saying at all. Just to have a little cushion in case of hard times doesn't hurt what so ever. But this is just my opinion.
That's not even close to being true but ok...when you have a personal disaster (job loss, major health crisis, death of a family member, etc) you'll wish you would've listened. Best of luck to you, internet stranger.
@@katie7748 I go to shops every day that’s how I pick up specials and I don’t have. Places to store food I don’t want mice. Bugs cockroaches in my house. I won’t be sorry buying how I do it I get good bargins and all fresh food. As I don’t eat meat so for me it’s cheap to. Buy foods
We all think differently. I have food prepped. Not a supply to feed an army or anything like that. I shop only loss leaders and make meals from things I have on hand. Saves money. Gardening and canning.
I have seen a lot of prepping , where people buy a lot of food. But out of all this , there's only one person who spends a lot of money $$$$$$$$ . Who has a huge garage that has solar panels on the roof , to supply 10 freezers, 10 refrigerators , and so much more and well Organized, including the home. Unbelievable. Buy per years 2 sides of beef ( cows ) for slaughter and it's packed to stay in the freezers . 2 Pigs slaughter house and meat packed . they have a huge garden , a bunch of chickens , etcc. Enough food to last 30 plus years. Not counting the huge groceries $$$$$$$ . It reminds me of a Food distributer.
I definitely think to have a little extra cushion is essential especially with the way things are right now and they way things are looking.
Those "extremists" didn't do it overnight and either had a bad situation wake them up to the reality that they need to be as ready as possible for next time, or they simply see the writing on the wall and want to be as ready as they can be. You never know exactly what or when things will happen nor how long you'll need to dip into what you've got stocked up. Better to have it and not need it than need I and not have it. Of course, you don't have to do that if you don't want to. It may behoove you, however, to do it anyway. Start small. Grab 5 extra cans or spend 5 extra bucks each shopping trip. Extra pack of socks, extra pack of batteries, extra this, extra that. It adds up. If single parents can do it, if seniors on SS can do it, so can you.
With the canned chicken, I use it with Alfredo sauce and put it over noodles and it's a quick and easy meal and it's something that my husband and I both enjoy.
I will have to give that a try sometime. 😀
New subscriber 🙋🏻♀️
Those egg bites look delicious. I am hooked on the Jimmy Dean brand of them so will have to give a try. Also, the no bakes with coconut - yum! 😍
Looks like a pressure cooker to me
Sorry i guess I should of explained that a little better. The Ninja is a 9 in 1 machine. It does pressure cook, steams, sears, dehydrates, slow cooks, makes yogurt, air fry, broils and bakes. You use the pressure lid for 4 of these settings, but with the yogurt setting you keep the seal on vent so not to build pressure.
Yes, but Greek yoghurt (and "yoghurt" DOES have an H in it) has single cream in it too. It's not just milk⚠️
Here where I live in Canada there is no H in yogurt. I read the directions straight from the Ninja cooking book and all over Google -straining the whey creates Greek Yogurt no need to add anything else unless you want to. I just add honey and its really good and good for you.
And I forgot there is the plain yogurt with active bacteria you add after the boil process which is in the video as well. Hope that clarifies a little better for you. I'm sure there are other ways to make yogurt but this is our way and my family does enjoy it. And the simpler the process the better in my opinion anyway.
what ninja? What is the actual name of the machiine
It's name is the Ninja - Foodi. Mine is the 9 in 1. Its similar to the instant pot. You can bake, make yogurt, sear, pressure cook, steam, air fry, broil, dehydrate, and slow cook. They have multiple models. ☺
Looks yummy, but now I'm craving tapioca...😍
That's so funny, me too. I have the recipe on my counter to make. 😀
I think a few maraschino cherries would be good also and maybe a little shredded cocoanut .
oh ya that sounds good too. Especially the coconut. mmmm
The casserole was soooo very good, we really enjoyed it.
I'm so glad to hear that. 😀
Good ideas and recipes. Love angel food cake and never thought to make it with filling. Sort of like a Bismarck donut - yum. 🍋 I make a similar salad but with the mandarin oranges. Crushed pineapple definitely enhances any dish. 🍍
If you try the angel food cake with a filling let me know what you think. 😋
I'm thinking raspberry filling...have jelly donuts on the brain today. 🤔
@@Cindy-mp8xo oh that sounds so yummy.
P r o m o s m 💋
That BBQ recipe is right up my alley and I'd probably make the mashed potatoes to go with that.....looks temptingly delicious.
I hope you enjoy. Every bite was eaten at our house.
Soggy rags do nothing except increase drying time. Soaps already contain glycerin, a byproduct of saponification. You’re rinsing it out then adding it back. Vinegar isn’t a fabric softener. More wishful thinking…
You can replace fabric softener with vinegar. It can soften fabrics without using chemicals, and it helps prevent static. That is the purpose of the cloths for the dryer, and you ring them out pretty good before putting in the dryer, I thought I explained that in the video. Saponification is simply the process of making soap which does produce glycerol aka glycerin. Vegetable glycerin (which is what I used) is not just used for homemade soap making but is great for fabric softeners along with essential oils. Many many many websites explain this. I am sad to say I'm thinking my channel is not the right fit for you.
@@ForeverHomemaker You’re confused. Glycerol is a product of saponification, right. It’s carried along with the soap, and I guess in that sense is “used for” soap making, homemade and commercial. Maybe you mean added to soap. It’s not a fabric softener. Nor is vinegar. These are clueless housewife myths. Never proven, just repeated. So little vinegar is used that it makes no difference. Only 5% of vinegar is acetic acid, which is then diluted by over 5 gal of water. Logical fallacy: many websites concur about something or other, so, therefore, it must be right! It’s hard to believe mature adults think like this… The video is just another roundup of tips that already have been beaten to death.
@@ForeverHomemaker I just glanced through a Google search of DIY softener-related links. A cheapskate site talks about using vinegar, which supposedly eliminates traces of soap; it then suggests adding EOs to Epsom salt and dumping that in! Problem: ES contains magnesium. Do you know why that’s bad? Acidifying a soap solution with vinegar reduces its solubility by shifting the equilibrium from soluble sodium or potassium salts of fatty acids (ie, soaps) to insoluble fatty acids. It does the opposite of what’s needed! Good luck finding technically competent proof of the vinegar-as-a-softener theory. If you have never come across confirmation bias, look it up. You epitomize it.
Why two water softeners? WS will suffice. You think Borax produces suds? Really? 1.5 cups of soap is enough for only 3-5 loads. She’s washing 160 with that amount! (Consult Bronners Dilution Cheat Sheet for correct amount.) EOs are washed away and wasted. They emit toxic VOCS. Avoid inhalation!!! Nothing in the dishwasher tabs dissolves grease and oil. More wishful thinking. Avoid this nonsense.
Wow Thank you Frank for your feedback. You are correct I rewatched and i did miss speak about the borax and suds. The dishwasher tabs work fabulous, no grease or oil left on any of the dishes, and I've done many loads. Not wishful thinking at all. Give it a try before putting it down. Essential oil scents may not always come through very strong in the wash but feel free to have a look at this article pranatherapy.nz/blogs/news/the-truth-about-vocs-and-essential-oils . And if you want to use a different amount of soup in the laundry detergent feel free, your house your rules, my house my rules. You have a fabulous day.
@@ForeverHomemaker There’s a scientific study sbout EOs online but I can’t post it. Springer Verlag is the publisher.
@@ForeverHomemaker The link is from a vendor of EO products. Geeez…What do you expect them to say???
@@FrankGutowski-ls8jt you are welcome to your opinion as I am mine. getting upset or mean doesn't help or fix anything
@@ForeverHomemaker Just what I needed…armchair internet guidance counseling.
Great ideas with products I already have on hand. Really want to try the dishwasher tabs.
These work great.😃
Do you have a Hy-Vee in Canada where you live they have meat bundles
No we don't.
I have high blood pressure when i go to the grocery store here in the United States i have to check, read the labels for the serving size and the sodium count if anything say more than 140 grams of sodium i can't buy them
I totally get that. I also have to do label reading for gluten, it is not fun, most of the time items go back on the shelf.
Thank you for sharing and encouraging me. I do not have a pantry or basement and space is very limited but your video has helped me to find the space and quit making excuses. Thank you again for the time you took to make the video and share it. 😊
