    Training in Colorado is great. I used to figure skate. When I went to competitions in other states, I would have so much more energy in my routines because of the elevation drop/oxygen increase. Love following you - we are all here for your support!

    Thanks Marcos! Happy not-so-holidays and thanks for the reminder that it is great to remain festive even when working hard on lofty things all alone. From NYC last year all the way back to Berkeley (I used to live across the pond in SF myself). You're a beast of tomorrow, let's get that quali time!

    Don't cut the roots of the onion. It even helps to dice everything nicely. Another tip is to be sure that the knife is actually sharp. You want to be cutting, not sawing or pressing.

    Your cooking game has definetley upped a few levels! That pork looked fantastic-as did the salad. It doesn't always work, but when your'e cutting onions, try and only breathe through your mouth and not your nose, sometimes helps. 110% dedication skipping a trip home for Christmas to stay and train, props! I used to always spend the holidays with family, but moving into a van literally changed up. my physical location, so now I'm accross the country from family, but with a couple old friends and quite a few new ones. New adventures! The decorations looks great too! ;-)

    Others unable to travel for the holiday may find inspiration from the video. I did wonder: (1) where the industrial (but non-Costco) looking grocery store was and (2) whether the pork loin would be shared with the couch movers from the previous video.

    Hey Love your videos!! ONION TIP: Place a wet cloth next to the board you are chopping on as the acidity from the onion is attracted to water and your eyes are often the closest access to water...So, place a wet cloth there and hopefully your problems will be solved!

    3:40 Protective Eyewear (Maybe Swimming Goggles?) and Good Ventilation. That should do the trick. Or have chewing gum while cutting onions. Maybe soak the onions overnight and then cut them.

    Hi! As usual, loved your video :D I'm from Poland and in my country we put "1 grosz" (it's the smallest coin from our currency) and we put it inside 'uszko' which is a small dumpling stuffed with mushrooms and we it it with borscht, yea we have a lot of polish food during Christmas :D. So basically everyone during Christmas Eve evening has to eat at least one 'uszko' and whoever find the coin in it will have a lot of money the next year :D it's a silly tradition, but my family loves it, you need to eat your food carefully tho :D Happy Holiday's Marcos!
