A man who cooks, who cleans up the nastiest of messes, and who has a smile that lights up the room! Sarah, you are a blessed lady! (And Solo is a very blessed man as well!)
My husband fixes appliances and they definitely don’t make them like they used too. My mom has my grandmothers old washer /dryer set and still works great....probably 40yrs old or more.
LOOL when you told solo to back up and he actually backs up he didn’t know what you meant 😂😂
Came looking for this comment so I wont have to type it lol. I laughed when Solo backed up lol
Also he didnt understand what you wanted still just backed up 😂 trust 😂
Loved that part too! 😂😂
Such a lovely kind man, who does what his wife tells him to do
@@karin.ferdwer That's how it should be everywhere, right? ;) My dad has been doing this for almost 51 years of marriage (this upcoming August). I am glad they got to have their 50 years of quiet time (no celebrating as per their request) last year, before this darn thing struck!
I admire your calm. I panic over nothing. You have freezer drama 101 and you are so calm and just planning as you go. Thanks. For the video.
How frustrating to have a new freezer break that fast. I remember the year after my first child was born my in laws bought me a freezer for Christmas. I was so disappointed. Couldn't imagine what they thought I was going to do with it. But now....37 years later I'm so grateful for it. Her freezer that her in laws bought for her lasted 40 years! It was great when my kids were growing up and now during that pandemic has come in extra handy!
I hope yours gets fixed and gives you years of service.
'I went to get my morning coffee, you may call it diet coke' 😂😂😂 Are you me?! 😆
🤣
8 am and I am also drinking my "morning coffee" LOL
Mine is regular coke
I call mine Monster low carb!!
So happy I’m not the only person whose “coffee” is soda.
Sarah, I too am a 'Pluviophile' That is a person who loves the sound of rain, or feels joy & peace on rainy days. I always have been. I've always said that the rain washes away the dirt and dust and makes everything clean and fresh. Just like Christ washed our souls, He washes the earth. Blessings to you all!
I do love it but wouldn't like to live where it rains all the time....don't like it that much...Ha!
You almost had me agreeing... Then you mentioned religion.
@@xMourningStar I did NOT mention religion. I mentioned Christ. There is a difference.
I feel the same way and also feel the rain makes everything grow.
I live in outback Australia, and the rain has an awesome affect on everyone around here. As it isnt often and it means so much for the farmers. Going the the local pub (Bar) after good rain, is the best as everyones spirit is lifted and the laughter and relief feeling is amazing to see on others. ❤❤❤
Me to my son, "uh oh... Sarah is about to channel her inner Jamerrill!" 😂😂😂😂😂
😍HAHAHAHAHA...I was thinking the same thing...Jammerill time!!!✔

Instead of making meals, you could also cook the meats. Package them in the portion sizes you'll need and place in the other freezers. When you need the meat, already cooked and/or seasoned helps a lot!
Highly suggest even make spaghetti sauce and freeze again. I started doing this for my husband and I. I make a large family batch and freeze in smaller portions
Omg I’m gonna try that
We had to do this when I forgot about a log of ground beef in my fridge. It was about to go bad but I only have 4 to feed so I just cooked it and froze what I didn’t use for that nights dinner. It was great
lisa knox, I do that also. Really comes in handy.
Very important to cook the meet. I got “serv safe certified” back in the day and re-freezing any of that defrosted meat is NOT Recommended. But you can cook it then freeze it again.
Haha I just saw solo when u said back up ... Bless his heart. He didn't ask y or anything lol so sweet Lol
I hate dealing with Chicken too. I started using disposable gloves when I work with raw chicken and it makes me feel a lot better and little less gross.
Same here or I just cook frozen chicken
Me too. I have to use disposable gloves.
HAHAH omg the "vegan trigger warning" made me laugh so hard. You WERE NOT kidding 😂😂😂
Newly woke up Destiny is such a mood 😍😍😍
For real 😂
When solo started backing up I died laughing 🤣🤣🤣 and the fact that he didn’t even ask why 😂
Hi Sarah n Solo, just letting you know how much I in joy your videos. I live in Hawaii island of Oahu. I'm 71 year's old, thanks for keeping me happy with your videos. I live alone with a little old dog and a few birds. They keep me busy. At night I watch you and your family. You have beautiful children so cute. I'm not to well but your family keeps me happy. God bless you and your family ❤️💞
I did not realise that the "nap-girl" was Hope until she was standing next to Noelle. 😂 Man she is growing up fast all of a sudden. I thought for sure it was Noelle.
She is!!! 😭
Me too! 😂
OMG I thought the same! I hadn't realized how much they look alike!
me too!
I thought she was Noelle too!
I love your family and pray no one gets sick from handling raw chicken and then spice packages and various surfaces. Please be careful Solo! I had a 4 yr old get food poisoning from raw chicken juices. It was awful!! I hope I'm not out of line for mentioning this, but when it happens to someone you love, you get sensitive about it.
Solo is such a good husband and father... You hit the jackpot when you got him :))
Totally agree!
☺️ yes I agree
She sure did they complainant each other.
You spurred me on today! I. Started watching and I said to myself I should be doing that! So I started a big pot of meat sauce w peppers and onions. Planted my celery, that finally got some roots! Cleaned the kitchen and showered up! Now I am going to watch the rest of this guilt free! Lol I hope you have a wonderful afternoon! 😘🌻
Always feels nice to be productive!
Your beautiful little girls with mama and papa at the door looking at the rain and hail is absolutely precious!! God bless you all!!! 🥰🥰🥰
Oh goodness, I'm so sorry your freezer went out! 😔 You handled it well, though. Kudos! Those roasts are great to cut up and use as beef chunks for vegetable beef soup. Good luck getting a new freezer, and God Bless You and Your Family. 🌸
WOW! Great job! I would have panicked with losing a large freezer, but now you have meals ready to go! You keep it real, and I love it!! ❤️
Bless your all's hearts. Glad you saved your meats. Yes, refreezing your meats will be fine.
Those Beautiful Babies of yours, standing at the door with Daddy, trying to catch that cool rain. PRICELESS!! 💞💞. Takes me back in time. I miss those days. 😏.
Hope you get your freezer fixed soon.
I love Storms too!! 😁😁.
Bless you all!! 💞💞💞💞
your kids are so polite. You said 'thank you Linda' They said 'Thank you Miss Linda'Beautiful
Yes, when solo said that my immediate thought was “what’s Jack seasoning?” 😂
I love how you promote small businesses. I absolutely love that the retired teacher sent you books and a dinner recipe. How sweet! I absolutely love you videos. Keep it up 👍🏽💖
The little girls are growing too fast!!! Sarah you were so calm throughout the freezer emergency. Ii would have FREAKED out. Hope you saved all that meat.That was a lot.Love y'all 💜💜💜
@Caramel Cupcake I agree!!! Sarah and Solo are both awesome. Awesome people, awesome parents and one of my favorite families on UA-cam..
Sarah is basically just amazing! Such a good mom wife and person. Never seems to lose her cool and always involves the kids in the cooking and cleaning! And I just love Solo! Also love her small business ads. Too fun!
Solo did the freezer! I just love Solo! And Sarah, too!
Good job keeping a cool head coming up with a quick plan and making it work. :)
the company that sold you freezer or warranty should cover all that meat that was unthawed. take pictures and give them a receipt of all that beef. I worked at Lowes and they would give $ for that exact reason or the warranty company of the freezer should cover it.
Maroxa Livesfree Lowes always gave a food allowance if it unthawed especially as much meat she had in that freezer. But she shouldn't be inconvenienced to have to try and cook everything. Some food doesn't do well if unthawed then cooked then refrozen unless you have one of those big freezer that freeze quickly so bacteria doesn't have time to get into the meat.
And check your home insurance
'unthawed' = 'frozen' ..... lol! 'Thawed' is the opposite of 'frozen'
Put some dried ice or ice in the freezer to help keep the temp.
@Maroxa Livesfree I don't think so. While she may be able to salvage some stuff, she still has lost value. What she planned as food for 6 months or whatever now needs to be used immediately and it is lesser quality because it lost temperature. She gave away roasts too. A food spoilage warranty comes when you buy an extended warranty and usually maxes out at $300, which is nothing compared to the cost of your food in your freezer.
“It’s just happy noise.”
Love it!! ❤️ I live on the Miss. Gulf Coast and we have lots of thunderstorms (and occasional tornados.)I’m the only one in the family who LOVES the rain and wind. AND the smell! 😊
Putting the small business in your videos I look forward too...I am proud you stepped outside the box and came up with this...bravo!
Just wanted to share an incredibile recipie for a pasta sauce with you, it’s soooo good and very easy to make. You need equal parts of finely grated carrots ( the one part that is a bit annoying is the grating😄) and leek cut into fine rings. Let the leeks get transparent in a frying pan and then add the grated carrots and fry until softened. Season with soy sauce to taste, to get that saltiness and add cream. Let it all simmer for 15-20 minutes and just before taking the pan off the heat, add grated Parmesan cheese and stir. You won’t believe how tasty it is!
I pretty much thought hail preceded tornados. The last time we had hail, we also had a tornado here in Kentucky! To change the subject, Solo is so enduring. He’s a wonderful man of God!
Our kiddos used to be really afraid of thunder. We finally told them that the lightning was telling jokes which made the thunder laugh. After that, they weren't afraid anymore. The clip about the thunder reminded me of it.
THANKS so much for showing my book. i can hardly wait for you to do the lesson with a watermelon with your family; it is perfect for the children. It is kind of like the idea you did with the marshmellows. Love to all!!
It looks so good! Hope the advertising helps your business. Stay safe!
Just a suggestion...have you ever thought of getting a vacuum sealer to freeze your meats.....it stops the dripping and also freezer burn....so easy to use too... I am not sure how much they would cost there, because I live in Ireland........so its so easy for me to buy large packs of meats and seal them into one portion meals as I live alone.....you can also use it to freeze meal prep meals...and anything else you freeze for long term storage....Love your channel.....Kindest regards ~Susan~
U seem so sweet 💙
I had not thought about it! It comes packaged and frozen so it would take a lot of work in the beginning. ☺️
You wouldn't have to unwrap it, just vacuum seal it wrapped. I'm English lol, we have a large wholesale butcher who does it to offer extra shelf life on the fresh meat xx
We also have a vacuum sealer. Got it after our deep freeze “bit the dust” and it was FULL!! We cooked meat for hours! We bought the vacuum sealer and saved a lot. Called some close friends told them what happened and gave them roasts etc. I agree with Susan O’Connor please get one you won’t be sorry. Also you can buy them at Costco, and they run the bags on sale.😉❤️
@@OurTribeofMany Our meat processor uses plastic as well but they don't leak. It's a shame that your packages all leaked
I love listening to thunderstorms and lightning storms. I love the smell of rain and looking for a rainbow after the storm of rain
Oh my! So much beef! 😊 Glad you were able to sort out the freezer situation. You’re a great example of going with the flow in joy. Not easy to do but necessary every day!! ❤️
You have the sweetest children you and solo are such good parents i just love your family thank you
Hi guys! Our freezer recently stopped and we found out it was the thermostat connected to the dial. You can order the part online, pretty easy to fix. Love your family. Blessings!
There is a beef recipe that we love - it is a Middle Eastern dish called- Yukney- Use roast. I sue cast iron pot- you bring it to a boil reduce temp. Cook it on top stove till it falls apart. (I have made this in a crock pot too but not if it is frozen. ) when it is cooked to falling apart stage- way I do it is add chunky Veg. spaghetti sauce and 2 cans of green beans. Serve this over rice. Some just use diced tomatoes 2 reg size cans instead of the spaghetti sauce. I am not a stewed tomato fan.
We just had a freezer fiasco too. I just found a wireless alarm for the freezers - the alarm part is on magnets and you can put it on your fridge and see the temp of your freezers at all times and it will alarm once the temperature rises to a point determined by you. Totally worth the 20 bucks on Amazon and my piece of mind with a cow, pig, and a bunch of chickens in ours!
We went through that with a REALLY expensive fridge! We got a top of the line, nice fridge because we have a big family and it broke after about 2 years! The company said the problem wasn't under warranty. We will never buy another appliance from that company ever again! I hope your freezer gets fixed quickly! God bless you all ❤️
When you said a small town of 2300 people I was shocked! I am from a town of less than 600 people, and most of those people only live there from April to October
Stroganoff, chili, curry. You can cook your ground beef in the IP on the trivet with a cup of water in the bottom FOR 30 MINUTES
Make a whole lot of meatballs to put in the freezer...they are very versatile...
Sarah, here in Chile its been raining like that off and on for 2 weeks!! When you have a tin roof it will drive you crazy!
You are correct. Freezers can’t be found right now. Our freezer did this a few weeks ago. We made a huge pot of soup and cooked everything we could. My husband is pretty handy and took the back off the freezer and a lizard had gotten into the fan on the back and that had stopped it from working. He got the dead lizard out of there. We cleaned it all out good after salvaging what we could. Plugged it back up and it is working good now. We bought some freezer sensors with a remote so we can keep a check on the temp. Praying it keeps on working until we can finally find a new one. This one is at least 25 years old. We keep it in our garage...so that’s how the lizard got in there.
Been awhile since I've visited your channel. The kids are growing so fast!!!! And it's a joy to see you all thriving.
Solo’s accent is hilarious sometimes. I love how you took a bad situation and took the positive out of it. I’m with you on not liking to mess with raw chicken! I like to cook but hate dealing with raw chicken! I use gloves if I have to mess with raw chicken. Wow you have a big crockpot! We also live where there can be tornadoes. It can be scary.
Golly what a bummer! I feel your pain. We had a problem with our ice maker in a brand new frig. Samsung could find no one to fix it. They replaced it, but in order for us to get a new one quickly we upgraded otherwise it was going to take 4 or 5 months to get the replacement. Hang in there!
Solo is really a wonderful dad and husband!!! He just rolls with the flow! You have a beautiful family God Bless you all!!!
You are blessed with a very helpful husband. Thank you for sharing some of your favorite meals, it gives me great ideas for my baking.
I would love some homeschool breakdowns. I'm going to be homeschooling my 4th grader and preschooler coming this fall and would love to see a "day in the life" of that chaos. Or maybe a sit down video
Thanks for sharing your video. My chest freezer went out during the pandemic as well. Thankfully my sister lived close by I gave the contents to her. She was happy. It took about two months for me to find another freezer. As a child I loved playing in the rain as well. I love smelling the rain as an adult just like fresh cut grass. Your meal prep is always awesome. Have a great week.
Our big freezer seemed to be a bit on the fritz as well...it was running...not loudly, it just didnt feel as cold as it usually does. We have a small chest freezer that was unplugged and totally empty, so we plugged it in and transferred all meats, dog food (she eats a raw diet), etc. The only stuff left in the big freezer is basically bread stuff, which is fine to refreeze if it defrosts. I think the plan this weekend is to unplug the big freezer, let it completely defrost, then plug it back in. Long story short, so thankful we kept our little chest freezer rather then get rid of it when we got the big one lol
So sweet to help other people’s businesses!
That is what I love about you. I would have been in tears. You make the best out of every situation. This was a true example when life gives you lemons you make lemonade. I need to remember that more often!!!
Wow buying the whole cow that’s amazing. I love the way y’all work together and get it done!
The little girls at the door during the rain storm is sooooo precious!!!
Should have went and bought Ice to help slow down thawing.
Once meat has been frozen and thawed, its best not to refreeze.
I was wondering why they didn’t have some dry ice in there immediately. As well if check the next door app or Angies list for a repair. It’s likely since it’s a newer freezer, it’s an easy fix. 🤷🏻♀️
Great video. Girls look cute in their sun dresses. So sad about the freezer going on the blink. And good for sharing the thawed meats. Have a wonderful week.
I have been with your youtube channel for along time. I dont post that much because it is not me but ive been struggling recently with everything going on and I just want to thank you for taking my mind of things even if it is for 22 mins. You guys are just amazing. *patiently waiting for grocery haul* Have a great holiday weekend.
I usually cook up most of my ground beef when I buy it adding onions and peppers and freeze like you did. I separate some fresh into meatloaf size and freeze raw . We are empty nesters but I have a few years before retirement. It saves time and space. I have done it this way for years.
Hope is starting to look so much like Noel. I can’t believe she’s getting so big.
I was thinking the same thing!
Love it sarah !!!! I meal prepped like this to when my freezer went out, but I did call up my neighbors and explain what happened and I gave out alot.
My motto was "biggest personal/spiritual blessings happen when you bless others out of your own disasters" and we know God loves it when his children take care of his other children, in ALL SITUATIONS! ❤🤗
Good motto!
Saw Seth & he made me smile. He sooo cute & huggable. Be safe.
Lots of cooking....it’s nice to have some help....the soap looks really cute...thanks for sharing!
That happened to me the other day. I lost some ground beef. My freezer got left open a little, but my garage was really hot, which added to it thawing faster. I luckily did not lose most of the other things in the freezer.
My nerves with the dripping meat... Lol. Look at you! Handle this situation with ease! You got this!Your mom goals for me!🤗
I would not be as calm as you are. Good luck with everything. TFS Cheryl
Hi Sarah!! Hope you get your freezer sorted soon! You should do an english roast with your beef or chicken. Side dishes are roast potatoes, stuffing, cauliflower cheese bake and meat gravy!!! X
Oh Sarah! Precious Hope is so much like our Sarah. She can hear thunder from miles away and they make her so anxious! You are doing a great thing in modeling how you love the storms. We often use the term......"Silly Thunder, making all that racket! Quiet down you silly thunder."
Our freezer broke about 2 days into the pandemic.We went to replace it , and could not find one .We ordered one and it took 4 months to get here . Hope you get one sooner , than we did .
Sorry to hear that.
Great save with the meat ! Hope the freezer gets fixed quickly! The meals look great! And i can imagine how happy your friends are to get some nice meat ! 😊👍💕💕💕
If you are ever wanting to learn how to can meat in mason jars, there are some wonderful tutorials on ALL kinds of canning with step by step instructions over on Homestead Heart. She shows everything you'll need to know to do it safely.
It's SOOOOOO good too! She also has a couple of instant pots to cook/seal the jars. Great idea! 🌸
Yes! I love her channel
I love their little dresses! So cute! My girls are in the "I can not wear a dress!" phase... 🙁🤣
So funny how they go thru those phases!
Long time no watch. Hope has grown beautifully. Daddy put on some good lockdown belly. Love your meal prepping.
So funny my Husband and I laugh at each other when we say a word wrong sometimes we say a word it sounds like you whistle we have so much fun lol
Great decisions on what to do with all that thawed meat. Maybe vary what’s in your freezers so you have a variety in each freezer. Don’t have one freezer with just meat. Thank you so much for showing my wristlet keychain. I hope you can use it. Your children are fun to watch.
Their little matching dresses 😍
Hearing Solo say "Jerk" was hilarious. It required a few replays 🤣👏
Way too save the day or way too make lemonade out of lemons :) great job Sarah & Solo I love ur channel and beautiful family I’m an only child you and your family give me that family love n feelings I lack in life being a loner not having friends or much family just want too Thank you ... blessings love n prayers too all struggling and those not ❤️❤️
Oh no thats not fun go find out your freezer quit working and need to quickly utilize what was thawed. You did an awesome job of creating meals though!!! Hopefully you get it fixed soon! Love hearing the kids, keeping it real. The girls opinions on the soaps were so sweet! Enjoy your videos so much, thank you❤ sending love, blessings and prayers🙏❤🙏❤🙏
My deep freezer is being delivered tomorrow. I had to wait months to get it because of Covid. Everywhere else was sold out but Walmart had just one left.
One way to use the beef is to make green curry with beef. Just slice into strips. Easy meal with rice 😋 Another easy one is kalbi (Korean style). You can probably find the kalbi marinade at Walmart or Costco. It's a ready to use jar.
😭 This triggered me. A couple of weeks ago our deep freezer went out and my husband didn’t notice until he went to get something out of the freezer and everything was already bad. So much meat wasted. And I lost 2+ months of breast milk. It wasn’t even that the freezer was broken. A fuse had blown and we didn’t know because that outlet didn’t have a reset button. Apparently that outlet was connected to multiple other outlets on the circuit in the garage and we didn’t know. The freezer was ruined though. No amount of cleaning would have gotten that smell out.
I love the idea of an upright freezer but they are always the first to go out.
I've definitely been looking at a few because the chest freezer drives me insane.
If you get on be sure and get it to self defrost. Makes it so much easier!
Mines almost 12 years old, and I've never had problem with it. It's not self defrosting though, I'll admit that would be easier. I use it as an excuse to go through and reorganize when I need to defrost.
Our Tribe of Many We had the largest self defrost. We lost 300 lbs of shrimp.
Someone told me that self defrost freezers are less dependable and don't freeze as well. I can't find a freezer still. 😒
Our youngest's name is Thunder, and we love all your channel. Totally made his day, (even though he knew they're talking about the weather), to hear her say his name 😂 He's smitten lol
Awe that’s super sweet. He’s going to have a lot of those moments throughout his life. 🥰
I love a busy, loving house. I have had a home daycare for 26 years and love all the kiddos.
I love thunder and lightening storms and love the smell too
I've been binge watching your Pantry Challenges and Cooking Vid's and you have got me thinking 🤔... Bacon Bit's are one of my all time fav's on Salad's, in Sandwiches. Now I am wondering if it is possible to make your own bacon bit's and if they would turn out the same as the store purchased ones. It could possibly be a great saving too.. 🧐 🥓
I love how he says Jerk seasoning! 😄 Even in a storm and a house full of "Chatty Cathy" kids, I am always so relaxed watching you guys meal prep! ❤
This has happened to us twice! The first we did exactly what you’re doing but the second time we were out of town.... we lost so.much.beef. The good cuts too!!! Makes me sick to my stomach still when I think abt it. SO glad you discovered it early and I pray you get it fixed or replaced soon!!
Awful!!!
I went through this not too long ago! Prayers! No fun!
Hi, Sarah and Solo, If you lost any food when your freezer went out, you MAY be able to make a claim under your homeowner's insurance. Worth a call! Also, even if you cannot get a new freezer for several months, be sure to call the freezer company to make a claim before the warranty runs out. (And oh, by the way, I love thunder storms, too!)
I just think your idea's for meal prep are just fabulous!!
Love you wonderful people. God Bless you all ! Happy 4th of July. ❤️🤍💙🌞
My kids left ours open this year, thankfully in winter. I made so many chickens and turkeys in 24 hours! 😱 then made broth for days! Very stressful! 💕🙏🏼 Thanks for sharing and meal ideas!
I did once a month cooking for years, that is anything from a complete casserole to partially cooked meals in the freezer. You cook ONE day a month (you eat out or carry out that night because you are so tired but it is sooo worth it!) There is a book titled Once A Month Cooking that is such a great teacher for meal planning, you seem to have that covered, how to pack your freezer & even how to use this plan with only a refrigerator freezer! Although my five children are all grown and gone I still partially prepare meals, I have flat packages of cooked sausage, hamburger, raw hamburger, taco meat, boiled chicken & grilled sliced chicken in my freezer ready to become a meal. I used to work at the high school as a substitute teacher & one day I asked the cafeteria ladies “How do you ALWAYS get your hamburger into small pieces?”, we’ve all fought those chunks of hamburger that just won’t break up! They told me that they put water in the pot with the hamburger, not to boil it but the water will break up any chunks that might be a problem. It also rinses any fat that remains on your hamburger when you drain it. I love your channel, I’m
reminded of the wonderful times with a house full of children!
