    I had tears in my eyes watching the JOY in sweet Joe’s face when he opened his box. He was so excited! What a joy he is and I can’t thank you enough for always sharing him with us. He is one of the best things about your channel. ❤️

      Thank you for draining and rinsing your canned vegetables. Rinsing them takes away some of the salt and makes them taste less like canned.

    It does my heart good to see you took my suggestion about a kid pick box for Joe.
    When I made the suggestion I had noticed how sad he looked when the other 2 received theirs.
    The absolute joy on his face is priceless

    Sugar cookie hack, roll dough out using powdered sugar instead of flour. They don't get tough because you aren't adding extra flour in. No worries about how many times you need to roll and cut out cookies.

    • @acountrylife
      @acountrylife  2 роки тому +3

      That’s a fabulous tip!! I hope I can remember it next time I roll out dough.

    I love how Peter enjoys baking and cooking! My 18 and 11 yr old when I ask them to help they give me that "are you kidding me look" they would rather be out under the hood of a car. My 30 yr old is a chef at a resort in Northern Ontario and his cuisine is amazing a lot of game food but when he comes home he doesn't go near the stove. He wants mom or nana to cook...home cooking goodness is what he calls it.

    My grandmother's sugar cookie recipe uses sour cream. It is the favorite of now 5 generations. And yes tradition taught us to not just keep scraps separate but also store separately.

    Baking soda, being added to buttermilk, yogurt or sour cream - produces carbon dioxide gas bubbles and that will cause the batter or dough to rise.

    When I was a girl (I'm pushing 80) my mother made sour cream lemon cookies. They looked similar to your sugar cookies, but were a lovely light yellow. She didn't ice them, but she may have added sugar to the tops. They were my favorite cookie. Thanks for the memory. It was a great idea the fill the box for Joe yourself. I've often enjoyed unboxing clips, but this one was one of the best!

    In my experience the recipes on the back of the package are usually the best ones and showcase the ingredient. Companies aren’t going to put a bad or bland recipe on their package; only the best! My favorite tapioca recipe is off of Bobs Red Mill large pearl tapicoa, it’s amazing!
