I was one of the people who sent you a voicenote. PERFECT PRONUNCIATION of Worcestershire Sauce!! You've got it👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Round the whole Midlands (not far from Worcester) it's pronounce Wuster, the same as we'd pronounce the town Worcester. The 'shire' at the end is silent.
Lol wuster sauce.... im from hull ..Yorkshire....now live in Brisbane Australia....i still call it wuster🤣
This is awesome. Was just thinking how we can resolve the “who makes dinner” debacle in my house. If I’m off work I cook, but who cooks when I have to work? Lots of fend for yourself and left over nights. Freezer meals are a game changer.
Ok we all know it’s Wash your sister sauce lol. My sister couldn’t say it at all and that’s what she called it
Not all heroes wear capes!🙃
My favorites are the clearance hauls and cook with me.
I have watched your channel for a long time. I started watching back when you had your first video that had over a million views. You make great videos but I truly feel your channel has taken off because of your personality. You come across as funny, easy going and caring. Yet it is obvious you put a lot of time and research into what you do. I always look forward to new videos especially during the lockdown.
Wow, thank you! That is so kind!
Yes!! Totally agree!
Same
Very well said, I agree! She is very relatable and full of joy and happiness! Something the world seems mostly drained of at the moment.
Can you please do a “college series”??? I’m a college student and I love your videos! I’d love to see more ways to save money on groceries, best tips in the kitchen, small batches of freezer meals (since I have to share the fridge with my roommates), etc!!!!
Go on a free recycle giveaway Facebook site in your area and grab a tiny one for your room if you find one available , you can even use it as a side table for your bed. Or a cheap used one on Craigslist
She has done a few of the ones your talking about. Go look thru her video's I'm sure you will find plenty that can help you out! Best of luck in school!
This would be GREAT
@@angelika_munkastrap4634 i don't know if it's just where I live but freezers have been hard to find anywhere since COVID
@@pattymayocakes they were really hard in my area for a long time. Last week our Walmart suddenly had both sides of an aisle and one side of another with the smaller chest freezers and a few smaller uprights. It may be worth another look if anyone is on the hunt. 😉
Yep you are saying it right “ Worcestershire”, no I never left a message just another Brit that watches your vlogs x
Another Brit and I concur!
Third Brit. You did great.
Me too 👏
Rhymes with rooster!
Me too hello from Kingston upon hull in east Yorkshire
Pro tip for when cutting up veggies - save all of your scraps (celery ends, onion ends & skins, carrot ends etc) and put them into a big ziplock in the freezer. Then once you have a full bag, make some homemade bone broth with leftover turkey or chicken bones! SO GOOD for you and perfect for adding to soups etc this winter!
Yes! I do this but not with bones. I just make veggie stock and then freeze it.
We used to do this when living in town but now I compost all veggie scraps so I’ll hopefully have some good stuff for my garden next season
If veggies scraps are roasted, the flavour of the broth is much better.
@@elizabethelliot6913 omg why have I never thought of this! 🤦🏻♀️ will definitely be roasting mine
@@hollieadcock2758 I save the ends to plant in the garden, and I follow MIgardener on yt who just gave us a huge tip to help with expediting the compost pole use alfalfa in the larger chunks, and put the pellets around the bottom of the plants. Of course as soon as he said that? People were complaining that they cant find alfalfa for their horses! (Oops!) Is there any way of planting our own alfalfa plants to harvest so we don't cause bother to others?? Idk yet. Still doing research. :)
I live in Worcestershire, and I'd like to say that your pronunciation is spot on 🙂
“Wear some protection!” That’s what she said 🤪 And I’m definitely stealing your gallon-bag-inside-pitcher game!! 👏🏻👍🏻
Nice video. These are some of my favorites.
I use a pitcher when gallon bags need extra support. It works great!
Thanks for sharing your meal prep. Blessings! 🙂
You SO need merch that says, "It'll be fine"
😂🤣
Jar leftovers trick:
Pour some water to the jar, put the lid on, shake, shake, shake.
It will get all the sauce leftovers from the jar and the lid just perfectly.
also put a drop or three of dish soap in the jar before doing this.
@@keithbrookshire wait why? You'd be eating soap then. I'm pretty sure Joana said the water trick so that you can actually use up all the sauce in jars. It's a common money saving trick
Christine! Watching your videos to me is like making that daily phone call to your sister or best friend to see what she's been up to.
My husband and I used to make lasagna. We used a lot more sauce and 6 cheeses. He was half Italian. I'm going to try and make it. Hubby passed away 2 years ago. I miss cooking with him. I love ur vids. You are funny and fun to watch.
Yes that’s how you say it 👏🏻 some of us (in England) cut it short and say ‘Wooster’ sauce too - just to confuse people 😂
I just replied with the same thing! 😂 Wustuh ☺️ But I'm a Yorkshire girl 😉
Yes 😂 always loose the shire 😂
Cool. I'm going to cut it short from now on too!
The "shire" is the part that trips me up so this is perfect
Every time you say "forever" I wait for a clip of Sandlot, where the kid in the glasses says it with a lot of enunciation. Lol. Maybe one day
LOL!
My 7 year olds favourite movie 🤣
Yasss!
Should have sprayed your measuring cup with cooking spray honey any sticky ingredients fall out
Or measure the soy sauce in it first.
I’m from England and I was cheering from the couch. It’s the first time I’ve heard an American UA-camr pronounce it correctly 😅🏆
Now watch me say “Worcester” ......
“Lea & Perrins” ta da ...
👍🏻🇨🇦
I have been roasting whole chickens in my air fryer, then taking all the meat off the carcass and freezing it for later meals. I use the carcass for instant pot bone broth. I jar my broth and freeze it too.
Hi. Your videos started coming up on my recommendations and you have been such a help. My mom passed in June after cancer complications and then my only sister left and moved across the country and I'm really trying to fake it but on the inside am a sad potato. More often than not I'm trying to force myself to eat but I have the sweetest girls that are 8 and 9 and the beat goes on, you know? You have my back so I have these quick and easy dinner ideas and sometimes then being in the kitchen helps and distracts me. It feels like we're friends exchanging quick and easy dinner ideas and I'm so appreciative. Thank you for your content. 💜
Cooking spray in measuring cup before honey cuts down on sticking and cleanup.
We are a cottage cheese in our lasagna kind of family too!
Ditto
Same!
Me too. I think ricotta is disgusting.
Same i like the taste more
I’m glad I am not the only one that likes to roll my freezer bags in a roll like that. It works better for me that way.
From England - Yes that's how you say it! Nailed it.
i don't have kids but your videos were a life saver when my boyfriend and I had trouble feeding ourselves during the pandemic - you're like the internet's mom
Love the shirt. All Valley Champion Daniel San.
Love the shirt too!
My absolute favorite are the extreme budget grocery challenges. I realize they're probably not so fun for you, but I just can't get enough of them. 😆 I go rewatch them pretty often.
Pizza meatloaf!!! 🤯 looks delish!
i love grocery hauls. I don't know why, except i do love grocery shopping! And I'm trying to clean out my freezer, so ideas for that are great.
Perfect "Worcestershire" pronunciation! Bravo Christine 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I need to get on the freezer meal train! Cooking dinner every night is taking up a chunk of my time that I could be using to be more productive.
I love Eating together ! I’ve been a member for about two years and it’s such a variety and an amazing value.
I’m going to use garlic powder because......I’m efficient!!!!!!! Lol. Christine you’re amazing! I’m feeling a bit lonely/ homesick lately and you make me feel like I am just hanging out with a friend at her kitchen. And that is something priceless! Thank you!
My neighbor across the street is Italian, and she said real Italians mix ricotta and cottage cheese to make it more creamy
My mom always mixed them. It's incredible that way.
Awesome idea!
That's how my Italian grandmother taught me how to make it.
I have trouble standing for long periods due to arthritis, so My husband made me a table that I can use to make my polymer clay projects but also for meal prep. So I chop my veggies for dinner at my table then assemble in the kitchen. I also have a chair I sit in to cook, heh. It makes it so I can still cook, because I love it, but I don’t kill myself doing it. And? I say worcestershire like you just learned, lol. The British way.
I also have physicality problems. I purchase freeze dried already chopped veggies and fruits from thrive life they really saved my back and hands and no tears when it comes to onions if you need a consultant Mary rybicki
Yes! It took me about two months, but I think I've finally watched all or at least most of your videos!!!
Yes, weird random pains are a part of getting older.
I started watching your channel Because of your ”Budget meal challange” videos. Those are still my absolute favourites!
"Just a PINCH of cayenne!"
*Proceeds to dump half the jar in* 🤣
It'll be fine!! 🤣
love your channel but your measuring ingredients leave a lot doubt if you are a serious cook
I actually said "woah" out loud 😆
6:05 - perfect, well done! (all the way from England :))
Oooooh I’ve been thinking of starting freezer meals for when our new baby comes.
Great editing! All the funny clips and split screen shots are perfect. 👌
I love the woohoo stickers
Hi Dr. Dray! I watch you too!
My favorite are the extreme budget videos. I have to eat like that anyway, it's interesting to see what you make that I wouldn't have thought of. Freezer meals are good too
I’m not going to complain about the cottage cheese because it’s my preference too. I have found a recipe for meatloaf that uses ricotta cheese and love it. Had never bought it before then.
1lb ground beef
8 oz ricotta
1/4 c of French’s Fried Onions, crumbled
1 meatloaf seasoning packet
Mix well and shape into 4 individual loaves. Top each loaf with a slice of Swiss cheese. Bake at 375 for 20 minutes, top with a sprinkle of the dried onions and serve with sides of your choice. For a healthy side, mix some drained peas and sliced red bell pepper together with a sprinkle of seasoning salt and put on the baking pan with the meatloaves.
I was sweating it for a second, but so happy to hear I’ve been pronouncing Worcestershire correctly all these years! I also prefer cottage cheese to ricotta in lasagna, so nothing wrong with that! For some reason the ricotta tastes “sweet” to me, I like the saltiness of cottage cheese.
Fav- freezer clean out! Cook with me, and when you do a price comparison homemade to store bought.
Freezer meals and cooking videos are my favorites. Don't get the appeal of grocery hauls. But lots of folks love them. It's a wide wide world out there............and room for all of us.
I love the Geico ad with the Ratt problem - 'Round and round!"
fun Worcestershire Sauce fact for you (from someone who lives there) - Lea and Perrins, the makers, were actually trying to make a different sauce but they didn't like the taste so they left it out and tried it later and that's what Worcestershire actually is!!
I love the clearance haul, meal planning, and cook with me! I like to put the videos on in the background and it’s just an easy thing to listen and watch.
Meal prep, freezer meals, and money savings are my favorite
I loved your video. My husband has a upcoming surgery and these will be perfect for us to eat while he is recouping, with me caring for him. Less time in the kitchen. Thanks so much. I look forward to seeing more of your videos. You are a doll by the way.
If I could have sent you a message I would have - you nailed it saying Worcestershire sauce, from here in Oxfordshire 🇬🇧
I've had jalepno chemical burns that lasted for days. Nothing took off their oils from my hands. I wear gloves since.
My favorite videos are cooking videos, financial videos, and shop with me/haul videos!
I love how laid back yet energetic you are! You are funny, relatable, and refreshing!
The link for the recipes didn't work for me but the video is three years old now so, that could be part of it. I will re-watch and get the recipes that way :) Thank you for your content! I forgot about freezer meals and how great they are!
I love eating together. Wish they had a vegetarian plan
I love the freezer meals and budget cooking videos! They inspire me to use what I have in my pantry and skip the grocery store :)
I roll my bags, too! I put a strip of packing tape to hold it in the roll tightly. Sticks great and keeps it in the tight roll. Easy to remove after thawing, too
I always use cottage cheese in my lasagna with a small amount of ricotta. Love watching freezer meals.
Love freezer meals, haven't done them in months. I am partial to ez meals since they were first on the market for meal planning. I also make my own beans in the instant pot.
Thank you for the Worcestershire sauce pronunciation confirmation!!!
I love that commercial! Especially, Aunt Bonnie!
I love your freezer meal videos but your cheap meals (or cheap challenge) videos the best!
THANK YOU!!! I had a package of chicken legs in the fridge demanding I DO something....they are now in the crockpot with the honey garlic sauce!!!
So.. Im sitting in the living room with my brother inlaw taking a break from mom life.. listening to you prep.. Then you say, "And I quote" Now we're gonna mix these in to two little meat loaf thingy things. At that moment my brother inlaw laughs from across the room and says does this woman even know what she's doing...? Yes.. yes she does brother🤣🤣
These are All amazing ..did this for my college boys.But now thanks to Covids continuous rage..Their semester has just recently gone all remote, no more on campus classes. But yea for this single frugal mom......Hopefully they will l be heading back home soon.,where I want them to be!!!! ..Everyones stressed so I will continue to make these great ideas! Stay safe and blessings to everyone right now! 🙏💞🤗🙏
I've always used pitchers to hold my bags too.
I’m just here for the food😉
(I do love your family shenanigans though)
"Some whisky business" I wanted to LOL at that but didn't want to wake my family
My favorites are where you cook and share recipes. I have 4 kids and love watching you cook and share cheap meal ideas and especially when you go in the store and show us. It's very helpful
Realistically I'm never going to make these prep meals but you're fun to watch
No cottage cheese in lasagna for me, it has to be bechamel sauce with some parmesan or other cheese in it. Ricotta works only in spinach ricotta lasagna
I was thinking the same. I’ve never made lasagna without bechamel.
How do you always have so many packets of “leftover from a food box”😂. Do you not follow the food box recipes? Cracks me up!
Yes!!! I agree
I’m always glad when she says this because I’m not alone! 😂 I tend to kind of loosely follow box directions 😂
@@ashleyw7891 😂😂. So is just so fun to watch!
I feel like there are a lot of things included sometimes that I already have... so if I get a small pack of breadcrumbs I'd rather use an open pack of breadcrumbs I already have, and then use the little baggie from the food box later.
@@KrystalKairi That makes SO MUCH SENSE, Thanks Krystal! 😂😂😂. She makes me laugh and I adore her anyway.
I’ve only done a food box order once .....while it was fun....it was pricy and my schedule changed last minute and It took me a few days longer to make the meals. I justified the expense by calling it a cooking class to teach me new ideas with cooking. I’m so sick of eating the meals I prepare. I should maybe try them again.
The monthly budget updates and debt payoff are my favorite videos.
Also really like the home improvements, your triathlon training and all of Dave's outdoor and biking adventures!!
Brillant, no frills and getting the job done. Happy Family.
Love the idea for meals like that. Makes it easy to just drop into the slow cooker and go. Will have to try and incorporate some into my meal plans.
When I clean my fridge out now I can’t help but say”expired,expired,expired” 😂 Btw, that was the biggest “pinch” I’ve ever seen 😆
Right? That pinch looked at least as big as a tsp. I wish I was as brave as her to measure like she does, and less clean up too!
Clearance grocery hauls are my FAVORITEEEEE
I always freeze my preps flat once I realized it thaws out WAY faster that way. Thanks for another great video!
I really like watching the freezer meals you do. Although we don't eat chicken or pork of any kind, it can be left out, I have always used cottage cheese with ricotta, as well as, provolone, mozzarella, and parmesan. Altogether in my lasagna.. God Bless
My son just asked if he could go on his lunch break and left the room saying “expired, expired!” 😂😂😂
My fav vids are when you cook and also using up what you have challenges. I like watching meal plans too
I just made all of these for next week. It's my first time trying this. Definitely should help with time management. Thank you!
Just wanting to see something and bam your notification pops up. Love it. You're greaat!!!
I just started making homemade meatloaf myself a few years ago and my kids love it.. I want to try the pizza meatloaf for us now for sure..
Also love crockpot ideas can never have enough of those
That "pinch" of cayenne...hoooo, Girl!
Watching the way you chop bell peppers and jalapeños changed my life
I tried doing that with my eggs and one landed on me and the other on my foot lol
Lol
I like the clean outs. I end up with a lot of freezer every month and so do you apparently lol.
English girl here and that’s exactly how you say Worcestershire! First time I’ve heard an American say it properly!
This is the only freezer meal video that actually included the prep work of chopping veggies, etc. The other videos I've seen kind of pretend that chopping stuff takes no time. Also, you chop veggies so well It's therapeutic to watch. :)
Totally diggin the music while doin the meatloaf! Totally had to rewind when u threw in the cayenne pepper the 1st time😂😂 don't know why that hit me so funny😂 just a pinch!! Tfs👍❤
Looked more like a table spoon to me 😂
Hi from England, if you struggle with saying Worcestershire which you did so well you can just call it Lea and Perrins!
Not the only company that makes it though
😂👌
Grocery hauls are my favorite and cooking! I liked your cooking videos where you show what you made for dinner for several days! You don’t seem to do as many grocery hauls as you used to though!
I’m from England, and you said Worcestershire perfectly 😊
I am like thisssssss close to getting that Misen knife. Those veggie cuts are so satisfying 😂
Just bought it! She has a link in her description that will save you $13 on the Chef's knife!!!
@@participation_trophy_wife oh good to know!
Yes use protection. I learned the hard way, had to pee after chopping jalapeños. Needless to say I ended up sitting in a large bowl is milk.
I never heard of using milk, I've always used baking soda or sugar to resolve sulphuric acid burns. 🤔
I made the same mistake, but all I had was yogurt 🤣 It worked though, and the coldness felt good.
@@00Temporary00 🤣 🤣 🤣 it really stings. Nobody around me was useful cuz all they do was laugh at me. 😁
@@Shay-cw5dr LMAO! I was alone, but had my husband been home he totally would have been laughing at me. Just sitting on my couch holding up my yogurt hands 😂
Yes yes yes from the uk, you pronounced it perfectly!! 😁😂 x
My favorites are the extreme budget challenges. I learn so much!!
