    June - you're totally right. Grief *can* change our perspective on trying stuff/buying items/experiencing new things. My dad died when I was twelve and he was only forty-three, and several other close family members also died between when I was ten to twenty-one. Honestly, try the interesting snacks. Buy your favourite foods. Purchase those you love just for their nostalgia value. You and your life are worth it. Re the long COVID, as someone with M.E. you just do the best you can with the resources you have each day. You are doing your best, and your best is enough

      My grandma died over the summer. My mom and I both found ourselves wanting foods associated with her, including heavenly hash (also called ambrosia salad) and the cake she made for any time people were coming for dinner or there was a church potluck. Food memories are a big thing. I remembered my grandma's favorite flavor for jams and candies was raspberries, which is mine too. I remember her giving us her favorite candies and how she gave me coffee that was half either ice cream or cool whip because I couldn't have hot chocolate. She would try anything her grandkids offered but would never take the last piece. She would fill us with chocolates that were gifted to her and her favorites were always Fannie May. Those are the things we keep with us and pass down.

    In the future I think you should split this into multiple parts so you can earn more ad revenue. A 2 hour video is a lot of work, your old employer would've milked this content for months! You can do one shopping vlog, one haul video with taste test, what I eat in a week, cooking for grandma and the visit, and recipe videos. We would watch them all for you! Also, girl, nobody would judge you for taking an Uber or taxi home when you have covid exhaustion and a 40min walk carrying twice your body mass! Take care of yourself first! Also, papaya has papain which is an enzyme that eats away at skin cells, like when you eat too much pineapple and it burns your tongue from the bromaline.

    Thank you for everything you create and share with us. I love your longform content in general, but I am especially grateful for the moments of vulnerability you share. I don't just mean the moments when you discuss your mental health, though I relate to those moments, but also the moments when you are trying something new and are uncertain. It is hard to be vulnerable with people in one's life, those close to us, so I imagine it is even harder when one puts those moments online. They mean a lot to me, though. It is a reminder that human experiences are not so different at times and maybe we need to check in with ourselves a little more often.

    I am so glad to see a video and see you doing well. Long Covid is horrendous and I’m so sorry that you’re dealing with it. And I’m still so sorry for the loss of your mom. 💞💞 As a mom I can tell you I think she would be proud of you. And I understand that feeling of live life as full as you can. When I lost my grandma (who raised me) I was pregnant with my third (of 4) daughters and I have tried, every single day since, despite chronic illness, to live to the fullest, to teach my girls to enjoy their family and friends and lives and to make sure I tell my parents and siblings and husband and daughters EVERYDAY how much I love them.

    JUNE! My favorite sister-from-another-mother who also passed away! I am neutral about you leaving Delish because I do not know the details of why you left, nor is it really any of my business. I just hope that your Delish departure was what you wanted, needed, and will allow you to develop your own voice, on your own platform, and on your own terms. Your fans below also mentioned that you and Aaron parted ways. I do hope that you both are okay and will be able to heal and move forward successfully on your own respective paths. In any event, I watched your videos SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE OF YOU; NOT because you were with Delish, or with Aaron, or tending to Fred. I am your loyal fan and will continue to watch your creative, ecologically and economically and ethnically conscious food and cooking content whenever you produce them! I wish you good health, fun adventures, great food, and success going forward into the Chinese New Year of the Rabbit of 2023!

    the key with chestnuts is preparing them in small batches. it is easiest to peel them while they're still hot. you can also soak them before scoring, that way the outer skin is a little looser and softer but sometimes they're slippery when wet so be very careful. my family grows and harvests chestnuts in greece and i've been preparing and eating them since i was a child :)

When I find myself stopping in there and knowing what I’m buying I feel all international and fancy. 😂
    It’s the nonfood items that seduce me. Cute stuff and clever stuff. I’ve bought aprons and rice bowls and kawaii egg shapers for grandkid’s bento boxes. lol They have a killer ‘deli’ where we get lunch and such great prices! It’s a theme park. An outing. For sure.

    1:00:26 The papaya has a natural enzyme called papain, that is widely used in face peeling solutions! It breaks down protein in the same way that pineapple does when you eat a lot of it. It is also used in meat tenderisers! That's why if you have sensitive skin you might feel irritation.
