Great suggestions! We wanted to get something especially comforting for our friend recovering from cancer who is often cold and your idea of a heated throw is the perfect idea! Thanks so much and God bless you and keep you💕
LOVE my french press! Also makes great tea with REAL tea leaves! Steep & press! Have a great Christmas & hoping for some positive changes soon for Canada!
I was so surprised at how many of these I already own and love using! The only one I don't have is the electric blanket, because we live in the southern US, where it doesn't get that cold! As for coffee, we LOVE our Moka pot. But a French press works well when serving more people. We eat air popped popcorn almost every day...and I must share my secret with you. I started putting the extra popped corn in air tight bags in the freezer. This popcorn tastes even better than when it was first popped!!! We also buy Anthony's popcorn, which has an amazing taste. I also purchased a small vacuum that can become a hand held vacuum. It is very light weight, but has a powerful suction (easy enough for me to handle on my worst health days.) Thank you for sharing your amazing lists with us. Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones!🎅🤶🎄✴
Good morning, from Tampa,Florida... I wish I could have video taped my two Budgies singing when they heard your voice. I tested to see by putting your video on pause and they kept quite. I turned your voice on again and they began to sing. They love your voice. 😊 By the way, I want to get a French Press.
A bidet is THE one thing you want and need, but don’t know it! I'm telling you a BIDET is necessary. I use baby washcloths instead of toilet paper or wipes. I recommend getting an electric one so you can have warm water.
I concur! Have a French press that’s 24 years old and keeps making great coffee. Standing in line with a friend at an event and she broke an acrylic nail, badly. It was painful and she was desperate to remove the broken part, but didn’t want to lose her place in line. I pulled out my Swiss Army Knife and performed an emergency operation, good to go! Have my Nonno’s cast-iron skillet that will outlive me and every time I cook in it, it’s made with a touch of his love.❤
Great ideas! You're right about the electric throw! My daughter asked for one for Christmas, I bought one for me too, and I opened it early. It's fantastic!
What a lovely and practical presentation! Appealing background, perfect lighting, your pleasant voice, pretty face and excellent content! (And just the right amount of background music😄)
Fantastic suggestions! 🥰 From April - October, we always maintain a Hummingbird feeder, we absolutely love to see those sweet little ones drink nectar from late spring thru early fall! We sure do miss them now! Merry Christmas to you and yours!🎄❤️🎅🏼 And many thanks for your amazing videos, they are so appreciated!🌹
I have one of my Grandmother's cast iron skillets. About 75 years old & it makes the most wonderful cornbread! Wouldn't trade it fir any other cookware.
I love my 40 year old cast iron skillet, my frother, my crock pot, my french press and especially my heated theow.... Best gift ever!!!! Also my pressure cooker 👍. Great minds think alike 😉 Happy holidays to you and yours. ❤🙏
Excellent suggestions. I bought the neck light the first time I saw you suggest it and I love it. The french press I have been thinking about for years but haven't purchased yet. Everything else I have and love. Thanks for all your wonderful and sweet videos, I look forward to each one.
Buone Natale Lisa ✝️🎄💕🕊️🌹🎄🎄. And also Blessed Christmas. Yes blanket 👌👌. I have heat conflicts with hubby. He puts the heat down 🤦♀️. So this will be great for me 🙇♀️
...I l ov e my French Press. ..but I really like this white one you showed on the Video ! I don't care for Coffeemakers, there's only one that I've ever used, it " steam brewed tge " Coffe, but it's no longer made. I have almost everything you shared with us ..these items really do make a difference in the quality of Life and just " everyday living "! I actually have t w o Crackpots, because it's so convenient if something is being stored in one ,in the Refrigerator...there's one to use if needed ! Lovely Video...thank you ! 😊
I have three different sizes of slow cookers! I love my new small one because we are just the two of us now… I use my small vacuum to help clean my stove!
I have my grandmothers cast iron, I love it! because it's amazing and because my mother had it before me. A faily heirloom of sorts. Have a merry Christmas and a happy and healthy new year!
Which one caught my eye? The electric throw blanket! I have many of the other items, but now I will be in search of the throw. Merry Christmas to you.....I enjoy your channel.
I LOVE my air popcorn popper! It seems to be even faster than the microwave pouches and the popcorn is delicious. It is a treasured item in our kitchen. :)
Hi Lisa! New subscriber here! I sometimes like to watch videos of arrogant women who end up getting arrested. (I love justice.) After that though, it is SO refreshing to watch your videos. You are the exact opposite of those women. You are a lovely lady of refinement. Thank you for your wonderful videos.
Thank you Lisa for all the great recipes and wonderful tips you have provided to me this past year. May you and your family have a wonderful and blessed Christmas. Kathy from UT. 😊❤
I have most these and they are great, don't have an electric throw though, that sounds nice!! We have used a French press for years, although having broken several glass ones we bought a stainless steel version, Bingo!! It comes everywhere with us! It is now many years old and as you say makes the best coffee! Merry Christmas Lisa, love your channel, it has been just a lovely treat to watch you and your tips throughout the year, one highlight for me has been your focaccia recipe, it is now a regular feature in my household, my family thanks you! XX 💜
Auguri di Buon Natale e Buon anno nuovo a te, Lisa, ed a tutti in famiglia! Thank you so much for a year of inspiring and useful videos. Just today, I made your no knead crusty cheese bread...we still call it "Lisa bread". SAPORITO!!!!! It's in my permanent collection that I will pass down to my daughter one day. Ancora, grazie mille! Saluti da NY
The popcorn maker. I use a crank one on the stove and it’s just such a headache with the oil, not burning it, etc. I was thinking of an air popper which I had many years ago but I remember it being so dry. You saying that you can add butter makes me think I should give it a try again. Thanks!
Such great items! I love a French press, and ours is double walled stainless steel. It helps keep the coffee hot and is not breakable, like my last one! The brand is Grosch. Merry Christmas!
Hello! About a month ago you showed a lentil and rice bake and I cannot locate it! Would you please give me the link to that video for the yummy looking recipe again. I appreciate it very much! Have a lovely holiday! Thank you! Looking forward to trying a French press for coffee!
Oh my, I’m excited now…I put an electric throw blanket on my Christmas wish list this year…sure hope Santa comes through for me!! 😉😀🎄I’ve had a French press for years…I guess I need to bring it into the light!! 😂 As always, so delightful to spend time with you!! Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas!! 🎄🎁 ❤
Thank you for all the good tips. I have most of these and will get the rest. lol Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family..God bless you dear...Sherri-Idaho
Thank you, for a great list. I do have, few items, but definitely I will purchase some stuff, from your list. Many blessings to you and all your dear ones, and thanks again. 🙏🥰🤗✨🌟❤️✝️💫👍🎁🎄🎊🎅🤶
Lisa, can you explain about the cast iron pans? Do they need to get washed with soap and water after every use? I've never understood this (or had a pan like it). Thank you. :-)
Before you use it for the first time it needs to be seasoned with oil...rub it on the pan and put in the oven at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes. Then to clean it usually just hot water and a bit of salt for abrasion to get off any stuck on food then dry it well...then every now and again I might rub oil into the pan again re-season it if it needs it :)
You sure are spot on with these items 👍🏼 I never thought of an electric throw blankie,I make quilts so our couches are usually well supplied. However my husband is always cold , so that might be a good gift for him . Merry Christmas Lisa to you and your family ☺️🎄💕
❤ ❤Hi Lisa I Love 💕 all of these Ideas thank you 🙏 for the tips 😊.
Merry Christmas and a Happy, Prosperous and Blessed New Year 2025, to everyone here! 🥰
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you as well!

Nicely done with the little nail surgery! Merry Christmas to you! :)
This was great! I'm sure many of us have a lot of these things but perhaps are not using and/or appreciating them like we should! Thanks, Lisa!

Hummingbirds are lovely and we are lucky to have a variety that stays through the winter...I appreciate you spending some of your day with me! :)
I use a lot of those!. Priceless to me. Thank you for sharing!
You are so welcome! I'm happy they are working for you!

I'm so happy to hear you've found so many useful items!
I have all but the cast iron pot, you're so right about everything you said! spot on.... My mom always cooked with cast iron, I will purchase one soon
You are going to love cooking with it!
A Swiss Army knife...that caught my attention w/the practicality tips you mentioned.
I'm a big fan of the Swiss Army knife myself. It's a classic and always comes in handy!
I’m a retired teacher… I had an air popper in my classroom! My students absolutely loved popcorn!
Popcorn is always a good idea, isn't it?
Lisa you always have great ideas to share thank you
I'm happy you enjoy them, Gerri! :)
We gave big Swiss Army knives as graduation gifts to grandsons. Something to be remembered by. Thanks for these suggestions Merry Christmas
What a thoughtful gift!
The water purifier and the seeds and cast iron skillet got my attention.
I live in Florida, so the heated throw was kind of humorous for me haha
You are such a beautiful person! I enjoy watching you show!
I'm so glad you're enjoying the videos!
Buone Natale Lisa ✝️🎄💕🕊️🌹🎄🎄. And also Blessed Christmas. Yes blanket 👌👌. I have heat conflicts with hubby. He puts the heat down 🤦♀️. So this will be great for me 🙇♀️
Merry Christmas to you as well! I hope the blanket solves your heat conflicts :)
Your nails and makeup are perfection!
You're sweet to say so!
Great gift ideas, Merry Christmas 🎄🎅

Thank you for sharing your wonderful ideas! I'm going to get the slow cooker! Blessings 💕
You’re welcome! Enjoy! :)
I use all of these (except for the hummingbird feeder). I would add an electric kettle to use with your French press!
I think you're right - an electric kettle is a wonderful addition to the kitchen!
I have three different sizes of slow cookers! I love my new small one because we are just the two of us now… I use my small vacuum to help clean my stove!
That's a great idea to use a smaller vacuum for the stove!
I have my grandmothers cast iron, I love it! because it's amazing and because my mother had it before me. A faily heirloom of sorts.

I really like my air popper. No oil and easy to clean
Think I will buy a French press. Tired of paying for pods and coffee makers. The reading life is amazing as well. Thanks for ideas
I think you'll love it...they really do last for years! Thanks for your visit and hope you have a great day! :)

You can add a little melted butter to the popcorn after it pops - it's delicious!

I love this list!! I would add a heated mattress pad to that for people who live in freezing Winter areas (like me). Merry Christmas!
I bet a heated mattress pad is a lifesaver during a cold winter. Merry Christmas to you as well!

Get a stainless steel French press! You will break the glass carafe. Stainless steel lasts forever. I use mine every day

Yes, same same :)

Have you tried a weighted blanket? Oh my talk about WARM and cozy!
beautiful lady
Ok the first one doesnt count for me I live on a tropical island. Can you give me a bonus one

Stainless steel coffee press is better than glass.
Yes, stainless is great! Thankfully I've been lucky with my glass one :)
