I'd be interested in seeing your premade fresh meals videos. You come up with a lot of good meal ideas. You're doing great, Penny! I'm so glad George is on the mend. God bless you both!! 🙂
Being a caregiver is the most difficult jobs there is! Congrats for being there for your dad. He must have been a great dad to you growing up. 👍👍👍👍👍👍 They have tables you can put across the recliner just to provide some sensory input when he awakens! Also remember to take care of yourself too!
God bless and keep you both!! 🙏 I'm interested in seeing those premade dinners as well. Would love that! Thanks so much for your honest reviews Penny and George.
Aww your sweet dad he's very lucky to have you as a daughter and a great caregiver being a caregiver takes a dedication like no other it comes with no manual and quite often you learn as you go it depends on the diagnosis and the progression of whatever the dse is. Penny you could always go to your local medical equipment shop and see what kind of tables they might have and just explain the situation, Hey just wanted to say a late Merry Christmas to you guys im running late on my videos 😊 Take care Penny your doing a fine job.!! God Bless yall. 😊❤. ✝️
@pennystwocents , Yw im sorry I missed the live i will go back and check it out stay warm and safe in the weather im in Ga so we're just now getting the bad stuff burr 🥶 yall have a peaceful night 🌙 ✝️
Bob Evans for the win they have real good food I glad you and your Dad liked it thank you both for your review's I say yes to trying those meal that you talked about Penny
I'm really glad your dad was not hurt seriously. A fall shakes up your entire body & the following day you really feel it. I chose the Pecan Pie with my Christmas meal from Bob Evans I've had it before.Im not big on pie but thought it was really good. I always heat anything like that up & makes it even better. I'm interested in the meals you ordered. I can make 2 meals from 1 most of the time so it would work out well in all ways I think. The closest to home cooked is Bob Evans I believe. They made the best Chicken & Noodles you could purchase in stores & I always kept some in the freezer then they discontinued them. I have purchased the soup which is very similar & it's good.
Excellent choice, Dad!! You picked "Bob and we've" no qualms, yum! Souper good chicken noodle, and glad the chili was good stew (I mean also). 😊 I go nuts over great pecan pie with whipped cream. 😋 Thanks to those who donated! I would definitely be interested in seeing the prepped meals which I hope really deliver! Happy Friday! Hope everyone's New Year has been great. Don't forget the Live on Sunday! 💜❤️💕👏👋
@@lisachambers8952 Dad picked a great one again. Very tasty. I'm thinking we might just try the premade meal delivery and just see how it works and if it's good or not. Love ya Lisa.
Hi Lisa- Penny & dad’s meal looked pretty good. I’m interested in seeing how those premade meal plans are, too! Hope you have a great night and a wonderful weekend. Sending my sweet friend hugs 🤗 & love. 💕
Gotta tell you Penny, Rod and I make at least a 4 gallon pot of chili each fall. We share with neighbors and Rods brother, the rest, we enjoy through the winter and spring 😊❤
Hi Penny and George. Great review. Food looked amazing. I would love to see you review the pre-packaged meals that come to your home . I’ve thought about maybe getting those prepackaged meals but just wasn’t sure. George I hope your head, neck and shoulders feel better soon ❤! Hugs to you both! Happy Friday - see ya tomorrow.
Happy New Year Penny. Hope you and your father have a very blessed year!! Caregiving is a tough job and you are such a help to your daddy. Penny, do you think it might help you feed your dad if you guys switched places? Your hand won't be bent awkwardly then. Hate your dad hurt himself. I remember a few years ago before my mama passed away she was in the bed and she was having a dream and she fell out of the bed and hit her head very hard on the concrete floor. Blacked both of her eyes and left a helluva lump on her head. I got onto both of my parents butts for not taking her to the ER. Happy your dad is okay! You both take care and enjoy your videos every day. Big hugs to you sweet Penny. ❤️
@@bemmy1970 Happy New Year Bemmy. If I sat on the other side I couldn't get up if we needed something. You are so right. Caregiving is a tough job. I'm so sorry to hear what you mom had to go through.
@@pennystwocentsthanks love. Yea she went through a lot. She had an ischemic stroke in her eye. It was really strange when she had that stroke. I asked her all the questions they tell you to ask the person. Stick out the tongue etc. She passed with flying colors. Her mental was very child like during that stroke episode. No real lasting affects other than partial blindness of that eye. She was diabetic, renal etc. If there is an illness, she had it. She is in paradise with our Lord. At peace and pain free. October 6th was 4 years. Miss her beautiful, sassy self. Oh duh didn't think about you not being able to get up if you needed to. Lol
I'm at a casino in Davenport Iowa watching you guys, tomorrow is my 74th birthday, we got 2 night stay free, escaping the farm. I'm hitting on the like thumbs up button sending ❤
I have done sun basket, meal subscription, the meals that were already prepared. I thought they were pretty good and I’ve also done Home Chef, which I really love but those I had to prepare myself. I would be very interested in watching those videos.😊❤
This Bob Evans Dinner for 2 meal deal looks delicious. It looks like a great deal for some good comfort food. I look forward to trying Bob Evans the next time I visit family in Florida. Doing videos of the prepared meals is a great idea and something I would be interested in seeing. 👍
Food looks very tasty, sorry to hear your dad hurt himself sadly those things can happen when we get older. Your love, commitment and dedication to your dad is commendable. I think trying out different premade foods is an excellent idea, most definitely will be very informative for your viewers. Have to say your dad looks great in that color of sweater he has on today. Wishing you both a happy day over there 💖
@@brendagereau6909 Awww Thank you so much Brenda. We just might try a premade meal delivery. Just to see how they work and if they are any good or not.
Back in the 1990's, also in Ohio, my mother-in-law got what they called "Meals on Wheels". I think they were a hot meal delivered. Possibly every day. I am trying to remember. I am up to seeing you review whatever can help your dad and you. I have been a caregiver of family member with dementia. Before that same loved one passed, they were diagnosed with an aggressive cancer that took them within less than two months of diagnosis.
The food looks great! Thank god you were there to help Dad. You are a great daughter! My sister is older and she kinda of does the same thing and she falls asleep and gets confused. I wouldn’t strap Dad in either. You’re doing a great job!!
Another fun, enjoyable food review/chat, thank you! You both are wonderful, that was nice when you assisted your dad with his meal.🥰❤ In answer to your question, we don't mind if you have videos of you both eating prepared meals, that you described, etc. Whatever helps and benefits you both, healthwise and that saves-you money.(financially) So sorry about your dad's accident, know- that was scary and shocking for you both.Hope everything will be fine.Like you, we have carpet in our house too, no doubt your carpet cushioned-his fall.🥰 Love you both and the "crew"!🌹 Have a safe and restful weekend!
I vote yes for reviews on the different 'mail to home' food services - any and all of them would be very nice.... And, if George has a weighted blanket that he could cover over him for when he may wake up suddenly, maybe it would remind him he has been sleeping and to be careful in getting up. Or, maybe if he got accustomed to covering up with a sheet or blanket that he could tuck in on his sides, for him to feel a little resistance before getting up....Also, any recipes/food reviews that are low to no sugar or low carb would be great.
Love Bob Evans soups! Sometimes we do that for our entire meal. Taking care of someone is hard work. Takes a special person. Don’t forget to take time for yourself-have some me time❤️Are you sure you didn’t take Dad sled riding😂😂😂I’m kidding! Take care
@@SandyAbbott-uj7gl Lol that's funny. I wouldn't even go sled riding it's to cold for me. Lol. That Bob Evans meal hit the spot. Dad picked a great lunch. Hope you are having a great day Sandy.
Good morning Penny and George , you are a great daughter and caregiver to your dad, I would love to see y’all do the dinners , I heard factor was good but never heard of the other ones , have a blessed day
@@CarlaVenitucci-vq7bh Awww Thank you so much Carla. I'm really researching it and thinking of trying one of the premade food delivery services. We will see.
Maybe ask your dad if he wants to buckle up so he doesn't fall! Like in the car we buckle up! I'd say yes to that if it was happening to me. I'd come up with a buckle for myself that is like driving - easy and safe and not strapped in. Just a safety buckle for when you're not in the area!
Nice review. Had a Bob Evans near where I live, enjoyed it, but went out of Business. Your dad looks like he bumped his head above eye, hope all is well and did not make his vison worse. God Bless you both Penny I have been in your place with my mother when she was alive, example I fell asleep in chair, woke up and mom was wandering down the road. It is very hard being sole care giver.
@@DonaldWalters-j2y You are so right Donald. Being the only caregiver for your loved one is hard. I fear one day I will be sleeping and dad will be out or doing something he shouldn't be doing. So sorry to hear about your mom.
I would be interested in seeing the meals reviewed, another one I see alot of talk about is factor and they are fresh. That Bob Evans meal looked Awesome 🎉
I was a caregiver for my mom for 5 years through Alzheimer’s. Unfortunately falls tend to eventually happen no matter how closely you watch the person. My mom used a tv table and bedside table so maybe putting something in front of him that he can touch when he first wakes up.
The struggle is real, it must be frustrating when you can’t see and having memory problems. They won’t strap them down in assisted living or memory care facilities in Illinois. My mom fell asleep in her wheelchair and hit the concrete. They say they won’t restrain with straps, even if it helps her not fall out. I have used Everyplate, Dinnerly and Hello Fresh. Someone can give you a code for a free box. They are meals and they send you everything you need to make it and you pick your meal you like. God bless Penny and George. Happy New Year!
@@pennystwocentsthese particular meal kits are not premade but give you the ingredients to make them. I’ve heard of factor but never tried them. Good luck in your ventures!
Hi Penny & Dad- awww, feel bad that dad took a spill. Glad he didn’t get seriously hurt. Give him a hug for us. 🤗 No Bob Evan’s around here. They do sell a few sides in our local grocery store, but I’ve never tried them. Thanks for the review, your dinner looked good. 😋😋 I’ve also never tried any of the premade meal plans. I’d be interested in seeing if they’re any good. That would be great if you reviewed them for us. Penny, you ALWAYS take great care of dad. I know how hard it is to be a caregiver for a parent. Sending you & dad much love. ❤️🤍💙
I'm glad times have changed. In my state, it is against the law to restrain and to deny access to a phone for care home patients. Unless the patient is a threat to themselves or a possible harm to others. Still, I believe the care, of course, is not near as good as being taken care of by a family member in their home if possible. You are doing a good job with your dad Penny and I'm sure George appreciates all you do for him.
I would love for you to try out those meals it's shipped to you because I live by myself now and they would be great for me if they're good I've been wondering about it myself
Hi Penny & George.😊 As always, it's great to see you. Im so glad all turned out OK for Dad regarding the fall he took from the chair and he didnt sustain any serious injuries. Maybe you can ask your health care provider for some suggestions to prevent that from happening in the future. As for doing reviews on pre-cooked meals, whatever makes life easier for you is fine with me. I would watch your channel regardless of what you're eating because I love ❤you both. Thats one cool tie dye shirt there Penny.😉 I'm going on 64 years old, and still buy a tie dye shirt on occasion when I find one I like. Reminds me of my younger years growing up in the 70's. Sending love ❤️ and hugs🫂 from Connecticut. God Bless.🙌
We have Clean Eats here in Jacksonville. My brother gets them now for him and his wife and my niece, too, for her and her husband. He said they are good. We're thinking about it for weight loss, but it's not cheap.
@@CatAndTheTinFoilHat I've been looking at clean eats and cook unity. Cook unity has a lot more choices. I'm still trying to figure out which I try first. Thank you @CatAndTheTinFoilHat.
hi penny great vids. i work at bob evans tried everything on the menu dont like there food much i see how its prep. its basically frozen not fresh but the grill people do there best. luv ya
@@phil22-v4u That dinner we had was tasty. I totally get it though Phil. I worked in a restaurant/diner when I was a kid and most of our stuff was frozen too.
As part of my recovery from my hip replacement, medicare pays for meals sent to you for the two weeks after your surgery and hospitalization. They aren't big, but are good. Just a minute or 90 seconds in the microwave, peel back the plastic film on top, stir, and then another 1 to 1 and a half minutes microwaved and they are done. They are all under 500 calories, and I like the taste...they just aren't that filling...so I just have a slice or two of bread and butter with them, and I'm good. The meals aren't haute cuisine, but I haven't eaten one that i didn't like.
If you are taking suggestions Swenson's is offering for a limited time a Hangover Burger. Advertised as thick cut fried bologna stacked with a beefy quarter pounder, two slices of Swiss Cheese, egg, caramelized onions and mustard.
I like Bob Evans. I love their Broccoli 🥦 and cheese 🧀 soup. I would like to see you do some ready to heat meals. That sounds good for my 87 yr.old dad. My son Josh is a home care nurse. He lives with 👨👩👧 dad 👨 with his wife and 7 yr.old son...almost 8. My mama died 11 years ago. So we are all dad has. Dad can still drive. He forgets names and things. He gets a shot in one eye every so often. Penny you are such a loving and kind daughter❤. Jewels in your crown 👑 ✨️ one day .God bless you and George and all here.❤ ✝️. 🙏
I know they are using in rehab facilities like a chair pad thing on recliners that buzz or beep as soon as your butt is off the pad thing. They don't use restraints anymore thank God. I don't know what the pad thing is called but having seen them within the last year in use I think it goes by weight on the pad I am not exactly sure.

Yes I would like to see a review of the prepared meals. It’s not for me because I like to cook. My mother has a service, I think it’s called meals for seniors. You preorder what you want and a chef actually comes to your house and makes the meals in portions you can freeze. She likes it but I find them a little bland for my tastes.
Hi Penny and George! You mentioned that you might review mail order dinners, did you think about trying to get a sponsor? I watch several other channels, and some of them have food sponsors. Not sure if they would have a conflict with your content of your normal videos.
Oh Patty. Goodness. I'm so afraid when summer gets here because dad likes to sit outside and sleep and I'm afraid of him hitting the concrete out there.
@@pennystwocents take it from me the job as a care giver is very demanding... you are so gentle with him..we see it everyday.. that's why you are loved by all of us

Someone can give you a code for a free box. They are meals and they send you everything you need to make it and you pick your meal you like. God bless Penny and George. Happy New Year!
@@donnawoods6772 Happy New Year Donna. I'm looking into the different options of the premade food delivery. We just might try them sometime.
@@pennystwocentsthese particular meal kits are not premade but give you the ingredients to make them. I’ve heard of factor but never tried them. Good luck in your ventures!
Hi Penny & Dad- awww, feel bad that dad took a spill. Glad he didn’t get seriously hurt. Give him a hug for us. 🤗
No Bob Evan’s around here. They do sell a few sides in our local grocery store, but I’ve never tried them. Thanks for the review, your dinner looked good. 😋😋 I’ve also never tried any of the premade meal plans. I’d be interested in seeing if they’re any good. That would be great if you reviewed them for us.
Penny, you ALWAYS take great care of dad. I know how hard it is to be a caregiver for a parent. Sending you & dad much love. ❤️🤍💙
@@kathy2933 I will Kathy. Dad is doing good now. He took his fall New years day. Love our RI family.
Penny ❤ of gold
I'm glad times have changed. In my state, it is against the law to restrain and to deny access to a phone for care home patients. Unless the patient is a threat to themselves or a possible harm to others. Still, I believe the care, of course, is not near as good as being taken care of by a family member in their home if possible. You are doing a good job with your dad Penny and I'm sure George appreciates all you do for him.
@@belinda9696 He surely does. I love him and want him to have the very best. Thank you Belinda.
I would love for you to try out those meals it's shipped to you because I live by myself now and they would be great for me if they're good I've been wondering about it myself
@@debrahypes2130 I'm looking into it as we speak. Thank you Deborah.
Kiss 💋dad's sweet forehead! Bless his heart. 😘😘
Hi Penny & George.😊 As always, it's great to see you. Im so glad all turned out OK for Dad regarding the fall he took from the chair and he didnt sustain any serious injuries. Maybe you can ask your health care provider for some suggestions to prevent that from happening in the future. As for doing reviews on pre-cooked meals, whatever makes life easier for you is fine with me. I would watch your channel regardless of what you're eating because I love ❤you both. Thats one cool tie dye shirt there Penny.😉 I'm going on 64 years old, and still buy a tie dye shirt on occasion when I find one I like. Reminds me of my younger years growing up in the 70's. Sending love ❤️ and hugs🫂 from Connecticut. God Bless.🙌
@@carmelaburrone5029 I'm seriously thinking about trying one of those meal delivery services. It could be fun and healthier. I love my tiedyes.
We have Clean Eats here in Jacksonville. My brother gets them now for him and his wife and my niece, too, for her and her husband. He said they are good. We're thinking about it for weight loss, but it's not cheap.
@@CatAndTheTinFoilHat I've been looking at clean eats and cook unity. Cook unity has a lot more choices. I'm still trying to figure out which I try first. Thank you @CatAndTheTinFoilHat.
Yes, I'd like to see the food delivery program you select!
Food looks delicious 😋,thank You. Price is pretty good too.
Hi guys. You both amazing! Bob Evans looks delicious ❤
@@MichelleKiehn Awww Thank you Michelle.
There was a time when going to Bob Evans was right up there with going to Pizza Hut! What happened to the 80’s? 🤦♂️😆🫶~Jason
Many prayers George, Happy New Year to you both.
@@JokerJ321 Awww Thank you Joker. Happy New Year.
Yes I See Penny's Two Cents & Dad George Reviews That Foods

@@debilei1078 Happy New Year Debi.
I have Parkinson Disease , and I do same thing jumping up while sleeping
@@tammishepherd2143 It's so scary. I hope you don't get hurt Tammi.
I enjoyed Factor but only when I cooked the meals in the oven. I don't care for microwaved food.
@@kathygillespie7284 I'm the way with microwaving food.
Hello! We are going to get snow tomorrow. You guys are great
@@conniewebber1159 Awww Thank you Connie. Stay warm. We got some snow today.
Dad no happy your amazing with him xxx

God bless you!❤
As part of my recovery from my hip replacement, medicare pays for meals sent to you for the two weeks after your surgery and hospitalization. They aren't big, but are good. Just a minute or 90 seconds in the microwave, peel back the plastic film on top, stir, and then another 1 to 1 and a half minutes microwaved and they are done. They are all under 500 calories, and I like the taste...they just aren't that filling...so I just have a slice or two of bread and butter with them, and I'm good. The meals aren't haute cuisine, but I haven't eaten one that i didn't like.
@@BrownsBacker That's awesome Medicare provided those meals. I hope you recover quickly BrownsBacker.
If you are taking suggestions Swenson's is offering for a limited time a Hangover Burger. Advertised as thick cut fried bologna stacked with a beefy quarter pounder, two slices of Swiss Cheese, egg, caramelized onions and mustard.
@@hamtsberg7946 oh goodness we might have to try it. Thank you Hamtsberg.
Maybe the fruit cups are a seasonal thing😊
They definitely are.
I like Bob Evans. I love their Broccoli 🥦 and cheese 🧀 soup. I would like to see you do some ready to heat meals. That sounds good for my 87 yr.old dad. My son Josh is a home care nurse. He lives with 👨👩👧 dad 👨 with his wife and 7 yr.old son...almost 8. My mama died 11 years ago. So we are all dad has. Dad can still drive. He forgets names and things. He gets a shot in one eye every so often. Penny you are such a loving and kind daughter❤. Jewels in your crown 👑 ✨️ one day .God bless you and George and all here.❤ ✝️. 🙏
A wonderful message...you and your family sound wonderful!❤🙏
@@teresakryvenchuk6205 Awww Thank you so much Teresa. God bless you hon.
Only food one i heard of was the factor one. Other never heard of. Have you ever done acracker barrel?❤
@@maryrinks8383 Yes we've reviewed Cracker Barrel.
@pennystwocents I'll search for it.. new to your channel.. thanks 🙏
Yes it’s great.
I know they are using in rehab facilities like a chair pad thing on recliners that buzz or beep as soon as your butt is off the pad thing. They don't use restraints anymore thank God. I don't know what the pad thing is called but having seen them within the last year in use I think it goes by weight on the pad I am not exactly sure.
I would be interested in seeing you reviewing the meal plan dinners that they deliver to ypur house, it sounds like a good idea.
I THINK YOU ARE AN AMAZING, LOVING, WONDERFUL ABSOLUTELY DEVOTED, COMPASIONATE DAUGHTER WHO HAS YOUR FATHER'S BEST INTERESTS AT HEART AT ALL TIMES!! YOU ARE A TREMENDOUSLY WONDERFUL, LOVING DAUGHTER AND GOD WILL INFINITELY BLESS YOUR LOVING KINGNESS TO YOUR FATHER A THOUSAND FOLD!!! WOULDN'T IT BE WONDERFUL IF ALL ADULT CHILDREN CARED SO LOVINGLY FOR THEIR ELDERLY PARENTS AS YOU HAVE DEMONSTRATED WITH YOUR FATHER!!! GOD BLESS YOU AND GOD BLESS YOUR FATHER!!!
@@fredseeley4996 Awww Thank you so much for your kind words Fred.
Would you consider Meals on Wheels a couple times a week?
@@jeanspeck7600 I've delivered meals on wheels with one of my best friends Connie. I don't think dad would like those meals much.
Home run Bob Evans ❗️
Hi dad and lovely penny delish I love 🌶️ did dad numb his head. Love u penny xx😘🥰❤️😍
@@louisesmith8367 Hi Louise. Yes he bumped his head. I talked about it alittle in the video. Love you too.
@ sorry penny I typed it ment to delete it before sent to you xx
Penny: Could you and your dad try some of the “Gordon Ramsay” frozen entrees? They are sold at Walmart.
I think we reviewed a few frozen celebrity meals but can't remember is we tried the Gordon Ramsay ones.
Try using a weighted blanket on him while he’s in his chair
Yes I would like to see a review of the prepared meals. It’s not for me because I like to cook. My mother has a service, I think it’s called meals for seniors. You preorder what you want and a chef actually comes to your house and makes the meals in portions you can freeze. She likes it but I find them a little bland for my tastes.
I will correct myself. The actual name of the service my mother uses is Chefs for Seniors.
You seem overwhelmed, reach out if you need help
Hi Penny and George! You mentioned that you might review mail order dinners, did you think about trying to get a sponsor? I watch several other channels, and some of them have food sponsors. Not sure if they would have a conflict with your content of your normal videos.
I would only except a sponsor deal if we truely loved the product. And like you said we don't want a sponsor dictating what we review in the future.
I like any type of food reviews.
Happy Friday 😊❤
Ok, how the heck do you share a dessert 😊
@@annalawson9989 lol
Last Christmas 2024 I tripped and broke my hip, at least that that didn't happen to George
Oh Patty. Goodness. I'm so afraid when summer gets here because dad likes to sit outside and sleep and I'm afraid of him hitting the concrete out there.
@@pennystwocents take it from me the job as a care giver is very demanding... you are so gentle with him..we see it everyday.. that's why you are loved by all of us
@pattynetolicky5393 Awww Thank you Patty. I try my best and that is all I can do. I do have my moments. I'm human.
They must be competing with Chili's!!!! 2 for $25.
Nice my friends 😊😊😊
Love Bob Evans!
Would he qualify for a dog's assistance?
@@jeanspeck7600 I'm not sure. But we really couldn't properly care for a dog right now.
It sounded like when you said "you need a drink" it was stronger than water😄
@@DaphneKrieser-mf7il I know when I edited the video, I started laughing at that I need a drink comment. I definitely sounded like I was wishing for an adult beverage. Lol.
Lol..That's funny..I was thinking the same thing..😂
