At last lovely family enjoying yourself on adventure… life isn’t all about work. Be safe and have FUN. You’re such a lovely family❤
Thank you we do love an adventure for sure
Hi Jessica 🎉great video nice to see you cooking thank you 🌸🙏🌸
Hello friend thank you
@@modernhomesteadalaska thank you friend !
Looks really good.
Thank you so much
Good job I've never had them but I can appreciate the whole catch and cook thing.
Thank you so much for watching. I love them my favorite.
How is Wyatt doing? So sad that he is missing out on all the fun family adventures. Keeping him in my prayers.
He is so much better! It will be 8 weeks at his next appointment it’s starting to fuse together.
I had to laugh at the bear spray, I was in a tiny room once when someone thought the pepper spray was perfume. It will gag you. Enjoyed the boat on the river, glad you guys are getting to experience all these things. You guys work hard and play hard. What an awesome way of life.
Thank you so much it’s always an adventure around here
I agree with you, can’t stand a runny yolk!
Exactly!!!
Thanks for sharing. Dinner looks great. In Florida, Snapper and Snook are popular with Floridians. Wish you had a sunny day for boat excursion. Till next time!😊
I agree! I love some snapper! Caleb wants to book a fishing trip to Florida or the Bahamas this winter! I think he would love it! Come on sun we miss you
@@modernhomesteadalaska hope he does!
Here is a funny story for you. As a police officer for 30 years in Flint MI. We always had pepper spray on our gun belts. You carry them upside down so you done accidentally spray it. I was doing a search for drugs in a house, every time I bent down to look under something I heard…PHSSST. I’d stand up really fast thing, what the hell was that, a snake??? After the third time, as I was coughing and my eyes were burning…I figured it out! Ever time I bent over my hip bone was spraying the pepper gas! ……had to find a new place to put it on my gun belt! Lol
Oh my goodness! It’s so bad too. And it lingers! Our neighbor is a retired officer and was laughing at us. Said “make sure you shower with real warm water”lol (for anyone that reads that it’s a joke!)
Hello fellow Michigander!
That’s a nice boat
Thank you so much.
What a fun boat trip. Glad you recovered well from your spray accident. Have a great weekend friend. 😊
Lol it was so bad. You think it’s done abs then can’t breath
@@modernhomesteadalaska its sneaky stuff for sure. 😊
Great fishing guys,love the boat.
Thank you so much,
Hi Jessica
Hi friend
Pinks are oily so they make excellent smoked salmon. My parents smoke and can it. I mix the canned pink with some mayo, spread mix on toast and yum!
I love them I guess it’s an acquired taste around here. But I like how mild they are.
I love salmon but here in uk is soooo expensive... yum!
I agree we wouldn’t eat it if we didn’t catch it. Thanks fir always being here friend
Bear spray! Oh, no! Bless your heart! I am the same way about my fried eggs. I break that yolk. That looked like a yummy, salmon bowl. So good to see Wyatt! God bless you all!
God bless friend. Thank you so much.
I love hemp seeds o yougart n other things but made sourdough toast with cream cheese n anything bagel n hampseed was so yummy
Oh yeah I recently started using hemp seeds.
So happy to see y’all out doing stuff as a family we did the same thing when we were young from North Carolina we were either on the coast or in the mountains and we went every other weekend and it was awesome with our two kids now when I was in Michigan and the other ones a nurse and we hardly ever see him no you are blessed right now
Thank you friend. It’s such a beautiful reminder. Aaron snd I can feel them pulling away! And it’s so hard. I don’t want that day!
Hi Jessica and sweet family!
Oh no, bear spray. I hope your ok, no lingering issues. That was a fun trip and fishing wasn’t bad. You made a yummy meal everyone enjoyed. Have a blessed day and weekend!
I’m better we let the boat air out. It was so bad at the time. But it is gone now. Thank you so much many blessings to you too
What fun ! The food looked also excellent.
Thank you so much
Looks soooo good and a fun day.
Thank you so very much
Love fishing trips. You had a good day. Thank you for sharing the recipe. Looked real yummy. Take care. Hav3 a good day🎣✌️🇺🇸❤️
Thank you so much! Blessings to you
so relieved that was a typo and you were taking the boat on the river not tanking it LOL! looks like it was a fun adventure!
Lol thank you I’ll fix it. Dyslexia wins again. Lol
All kidding aside regarding the bear spray, that stuff is debilitating! I just heard a police officer speak to a group of women and he said to ditch the pepper spray and change tp bear spray, for self defense. It can stop a human and incapacitate for much longer than pepper spray.
You looked so pale on the boat, I couldn’t decide if it was the spray or the choppy ride!
But thankfully you were your pretty self in the kitchen. Your meal looked terrific!
Until our next visit..give Caleb my best, he looks to be on the road to recovery! ❤ Momma G
Oh yes momma G! It was something else it totally knocked the air out of me. I was so scared on the boat. That could of been it. But honestly Aaron and Caleb truly did an amazing job.
@@modernhomesteadalaska ❤️
OMG! My middle some about 4 years ago got a hold of the bear spray in our camper! It was the worse night ever lol. To this day I have sudden burning sensations when I sit in the drivers seat because the residue is still a little there.
Also thanks for the recipe, I’m always looking for new ways to eat up our salmon! Smoked of course is my favorite!
Oh noooo and I sprayed it on our expensive fishing backpack now I have to try and figure out if I can even wash it. It’s a sensation if you have not experienced it that it’s hard to explain
@@modernhomesteadalaska honestly I wouldn’t try washing, that residue is oil based and extremely hard to get rid of and anything that touches it then has that oil on it. Such a bummer. But really good to have when you need it lol.
Oh no! someone lost their Cabin on the river :( I dont know if you tried this before, but if not try grilling/baking your salmon with low sodium taco seasoning packed thick on top of it, it is fabulous and the leftovers are great cold on a salad. I doubted it when someone cooked it for me and now its one of my favorite ways to eat it. A steak seasoning is also great lightly sprinkled on the reds :)
Lol yes I don’t know what was up but that cabin was for sure in the river.
I’ll try that on some salmon we have enough to try lots of different ways. Thank you so much
First of all, I’m so happy to see your boy up and having a smile on his face. You can tell he enjoyed your cooking. My dad says if they pinks are chrome they’re good but we’ve never targeted them while fishing because we always fished for reds since they run at the same time. It’s nice to get out in the middle of the peace and quiet and enjoy some fishing. Second run reds are underway for Kenai and silvers are in ship creek thicker than last week now too. I’m so tired I’m torn between fishing again this weekend or staying close to home and relaxing 😂 my poor yard and house has had the short end of the stick the past 6 weeks and has been neglected but it’s so much more fun fishing and taking adventures rather than putting clothes away and mowing the grass 😅 the struggles of Alaskan summers
And and omg!!!! Fish creek dip net opens tomorrow! It’s only a couple miles from us. And Aaron and I are like I don’t know where to go!!! I want to hit it all!!!! We were hoping to get an early silver but I honestly like the chrome pinks because of how mild they are
Lol! If you don’t mind the mud, fish creek is a great place to go and it’s close. I like to go to kasilof or kenai for dipnetting(mostly because playing on the beach is half the fun). I kind of want to head back down to the peninsula to floss some more reds. Buuuuut catching some silvers at ship creek sounds awesome too 🤣 oh the options. Don’t forget the cloudberries are finally getting ripe and they’re pickable now(late this year). How does a women choose what to do this time of year 🤣
@@TracyB-B not enough hours in the day!
@@TracyB-B well we are at random back at the Russian. Pulling up now. Email me we will exchange info! Modernhomesteadalaska@gmail.com we will connect on the fishing road someplace
Sorry that happened to you, now you may know it works on bears. Hope you have an uneventful weekend. ❤
Lol I’m better now but oh man! Yes it works
@@modernhomesteadalaska funny but not funny hun
I only eat scrambled eggs bc I don't like yokes either.
Me too! I have family in town during the meet and greet but I’m trying to get a schedule and if I can break away I’ll try and come
Hahahaha; where is your bathroom? Seriously, I have never done anything like that, and I just am curious. I realize it’s a personal question 🙋♀️, but I mean there’s no gas station; so what do y’all do? Leave it to an old lady; am I bad? ❤❤❤y’all taking us with you. Can’t imagine doing something like this. Yeah, you guys are young and that makes a 🌎 of difference. Thank you 🙏 folks. Sincerely.
Ummm well at the boat launch they have a port o potty. But you just hold onto the back of the boat and squat down. It’s easier for the boys for sure. I always tell my boys marry a girl who can squat pee and not get any on her shoes! Lol
😂😂💪🏻
Nice boat How's Wyatt doing
He is so much better only a few weeks left. But I’m hoping he does some therapy after to build himself back up. But still just laying on his back. He sits up long enough to make it through like dinner and some things like that. Took a short walk around the garden with me yesterday. About 10 min.
poppy seeds
Yes or sesame seed maybe. Any way you go all together yummy!
Hi Jessica you guys like exploring, not afraid to get lost I would be thank God for Aaron and your son enjoy 7-21-2023👍🏽👍🏽❤️ You are Jessica what they Call Champions of Mother & Wife and Friend., Enjoy life because we only live once 👍🏽👍🏽
Thank you so much friend. We are afraid honestly of most of the stuff bc we do. It’s a rush for sure and excited that we get to explore it all.
How's Wyett
feeling
So much better. I should get him todo an update. He even walked the garden with me for about 10 min yesterday.
Bowls not bowels😂
Oh my goodness I see it now lol
LIFE JACKETS!!!!?????
Yes the whole time! You do realize the blue thing strapped to us are life jackets right?
@@modernhomesteadalaska I am so sorry. Was looking for the bulky ones. Glad you are safe. Love love love your posts. Glad you share all--especially the bear spray fiasco.
@@modernhomesteadalaska my first thought was that the blue straps were a new fangled suspenders keeping your britches up. Hee hee!
@@patricia.whatelevationarey3239 lol!!! I get it I was not sure if you were not seeing it or what. They inflate in the water.
It isn't worth going that far for (humpies) pink salmon.
Oh yeah we were not actually there to fish. It was learning the boat on the river and checking all our electronics and the sand filters……. You know all that stuff to make sure when we take it for a several days trip to moose hunt we are safe. But they were fresh and firm so they did make for a yummy free dinner. Thanks for watching friend!
