    As far as the stained silicon mats...try soaking the mats in equal parts Hot water and distilled vinegar..30 mins or longer..as needed..
    Works for me!

    Valentines Day for us has always been a hit or miss. My husband’s a truck driver so if he’s home I usually cook something that he likes and I make chocolate covered strawberries. If he’s out on the road we just tell each other Happy Valentines Day and that’s it. Now back 30 years ago when he was still trying to “woo” me he would send me flowers or candy when he was gone. Apparently the bloom has fell off the rose because that stopped about 20 years ago!😂 I usually pick up a little something for the grandkids from us.

    Yay!!! Perfect timing! I’m hosting a Galtine’s Brunch for the ladies in the family this year. ❤
    Also - I hadn’t seen the other videos before but I just laughed and thought it was great when you told the chatterboxes with opinions to “hush” 😂 That was perfect!!

    Safe travels. And I didn't grow up making things homemade as kid so now as an adult i'm interested in teaching myself while my children learn with me. I will be buying some stuff this spring for my kitchen to help me bake and cook better food. Thank you for your videos of teaching.

    Hi! Still loving these easy recipes! Thank you so much. I have read several things on how to clean silicone cooking mats, and hydrogen peroxide seems to be something that got a lot of interest!! It states to let them soak overnight. I have not tried this, and I do NOT know what will or will not happen! Im not big into Valentines but have nothing against it! I'm blessed to have my Valentine all the time! God is good!!

  • @tammygordon3177
    @tammygordon3177 19 днів тому

    Those look yummy. Don't forget the homemade marshmallows you just made for the Smore video. You can cut them into hearts and cover in chocolate. I have a Valentine baby, who was born just before the holiday. So most of my baking never was themed with hearts. I still try to make treats or get a small gift for the hubby and all my kids even tho they are adults or almost adults now.

    • @TalesFromAnEmptyNest

    You are such a good grandma. I don’t celebrate Valentine’s Day. Never did. My grand babies are big enough it doesn’t matter to them. Interesting way to make fudge. Don’t think I’d like the strawberry but vanilla or chocolate sounds yummie.

    Honey I Love your channel!! STOP apologizing for your pans that just means that you really use your pans !! Now if these little mats aggravate you maybe using 1/2 cup salt and Dawn enough to make a paste. That really might help!! Keep up your GREAT CHANNEL!! I Love the Channel because you are for real and not trying to be perfect !!! None of us are!!!!

      Thanks! You could probably freeze the chocolate and white chocolate peanut butter ones. You could also freeze the fudge. I’m not sure about the cookies. I freeze a lot of cookie dough, but not sure how the cream cheese would hold up. Same for the puff pastry one. I’m not sure how it would hold up. Remember if you freeze chocolate through, that it might make it turn a whitish color🙂

    Im 30 and Valentine's Day is meh. Ill get my fiance a fancy candy and bring him home his favorite latte or something but i dont buy a bunch of gifts. We usually just cook together and enjoy each other's company and have a good night cap too ;) its nice but not super different than how we treat each other daily anyways!
    This is a good idea for tbe bags of pretzels i have leftover from Christmas. Ive never liked pretzels unless theres a ton of yummy stuff on them xD

I'm pretty sure everyone's pans/mats look like that. I know mine do and I always cover my pans with parchment or foil. Dawn Power wash pretty much cleans everything! Have a blast on your cruise!!!
