    Actually, I love baked potatoes, but after I scoop out the potato from the skin, I love to take some butter and put it into the skins, they are great eating by themselves! 😋

      As an American, who is married to a chef....I tend to go WAY over the top with my baked potatoes, lol. My favorite way is twice baked loaded potatoes. You bake them, then scoop out all of the soft potato, mix the soft potato you just scooped out with butter, sour cream, crispy bacon pieces and scallions. You then put that mixture back into the potato skin, top it with shredded cheddar cheese and put it back into the oven for the cheese to melt and get bubbly. Now...I don't just stop there, lol. I then drizzle the top of it with a secret sweet Sriracha Mayo my husband makes for our restaurant....and it's phenomenal.

      The skins have all the vitamins. My mom grew up on a farm. So she refused to eat the skins, I love the crunches of the baked skins.
      I poke my taters with a fork then rub a bit of bacon grease on them. Yes I wrap mine in foil then bake 400 till u pick it up with a towel and it's soft. Let them set, slice, then push back the sides towards the middle. Done Great now I'm hungry. 👍 🥔🧈🥓

      @@tinklvsme Actually....it's just a myth that all the nutrients are in the skins of the potato. It's a very old myth that came about during times of food shortages to get children to eat all of their potato, or all of their apples as well, so that there was less food waste and the child got enough to eat. While there may be extra fiber in the skin, the majority of the nutrients are in the potato itself.

    I asked my husband how he would have felt to receive the royal box. He said a slap in the face. But I wonder if it's because he served 23 years when the average person was not asked to sacrifice anything to keep the wars going. The wars of his generation were very different from previous generations. Back in the day, a war had mass mobilization of the people and many got onboard. Recent wars are very different. A tiny percentage fight where the government tells them whilst the majority of the population aren't asked to do anything for the war effort. Very different from previous wars.

  • @lesleyfitzpatrick1711

    The ordinary population in the British Isles in the 1800's were massively undernourished and many men could not qualify for service in the military. Perhaps you should look at that and how real people ate (or didn't). The Royals had private farms and resources that the common person did not. I know you are focused on the Royals, but it was not the experience of most people

    You say....good enough for a queen , good enough for me. It was great for the queen. With all the stress in her life and family that caused her as. Much pain and sadness as they did joy and pride, a country that put it foot in mouth more than needed, a world that looked to her for guidance and answers to some really unsolvable problems. Somehow she did it all and more and still lived to a very remarkable age under the the weight of her life. The only things I can see, the only things she did so well was acceptance, guts, attitude( prince Philips...just get on with it) trust in herself and her country. And was more than just stronge. The only thing I can explain this long life to(and prince philip)that THEY eat such wonderful food. I don't mean what food as we can eat it too but the the chefs. I watch this Chanel all the time and I would be very strong and happy it I had food prepared buy any of the royal chefs. I close my eyes during the show and I almost smell the beautiful dish they are making. We thank God for out queen and family but I figure once she was here, God provided the best foods and the BEST chefs in the world. We should thank God for hrh Elizabeth, hrh philip, and all the chefs.

Catherine & William could make it in a adventure I just really am frightened when I see all of them getting on a damn helicopter for God's sake to go up to Balmoral
    Wasn't there a law set forbidden from traveling together
    I think King Charles should really put his foot down , because old Meg's has even said their just 1 crash from the throne
