Thank you!!! It does feel like a little slice of heaven. It’s gorgeous and we are surrounded with AMAZING neighbors who we love. We lucked out moving here
It looks so beautiful there in Alaska. I purchase the big green funnel. At first I thought, what am I going to do with this thing? However, I am so glad I have it now. I place a plate under the jar or bag, place the funnel in jar or bag and usually depending on texture I just slowly pour and guide contents into vessel. I purchased a paint brush to sweep all bits into container and then what is on the plate as well. I hope this helps. Have a great trip! From Ontario, Canada.
I was thinking about doing oatmeal, didn't think about adding vanilla yogurt and fruit. Will definitely try. Glad your daughter is ok. Have a great trip.
Haha exactly, went from extreme heat to extreme cold 😅 we got to AZ yesterday and I’m happy to feel some heat!!! I will be sick of it in a few days I’m sure
This works great with steel cut oats, too. Apple cinnamon is wonderful.However they dont last long they turn rancid after a year. I like to eat them as a snack.
Oh that sounds like it would be so good! Yeah we arrived yesterday and it’s hot but I’m happy to feel some warmth 😂😂 my kids keep saying how hot it is they sure aren’t acclimated like they used to be haha
Finally bit the bullet! I have a new freeze dryer! Now….. what in the world will I do with it!?!? You continue to inspire me SO much! I’m planning to do the bread tomorrow afternoon. Thank you for making it seem so easy! Looking forward to having fun with it. Enjoy your trIp! Hugs from Georgia!
I just got my replacement door for my black medium HR it’s the one the dog yanked off the counter ! Running a batch of candy now to see if it works! The unit fell on the floor and dented two corners on the hinge side of the machine !
That’s a good testament to the machine and how well they work and stand up to such a crazy accident! I’m very surprised and happy that it works fine with just a few dents
I have a question a little off topic here. I recently purchased a freeze dryer and have noticed that there is ice behind the rubber seal throughout the freeze drying process. And then it melts and drips during the entire process. Is this normal?
I think it means you might not be getting a proper seal….. but I’m not totally sure I haven’t had that problem before. I’d give a call to customer service they are so helpful with questions like that!
Thanks for your response. I have spoken to customer service and my experience has been not good. They told me this was normal but everyone I know that had a machine does not have this problem. Guess I will reach out to them again. Thanks for your help. Love your videos BTW.
Do you have a place a person can get recipes for all your wonderful MRE"s?? I try to get it during the video but sometimes I don't see some of the measurements.
Ugh yes 😫😫😫 here’s a link to my video how I repaired it, I had to call into customer service and they sent me new parts I installed myself with my husband
Cold oatmeal?!? You’re weird! 😂 I have a problem with “eye” talk and couldn’t handle listening to you describe your little one’s ordeal or what the spot was as I fast forwarded past it and returned to watching when I saw her in bed afterwards. I was surprised to see you had Brian’s (I WON’T say his channel’s name because I’ve seen some of his videos turn into commercials for his supply site and that bugs me) bag holder but you didn’t use his separators for meal portions. I have bought some sideways meal pouches from John-in-Bibs’ store and they are amazing. They would be so much of a saver of space as the bags are gusseted and made to withstand holding water for rehydration. Eating directly from them will save a lot of space and “clean up” time. I know you’re practically in your trip already and it’s too late for you, but watching you use the jars I thought about you packing empty jars for your flight (I hope you aren’t carrying jars on the flight and will be buying some things in AZ). While some of the ingredients used makes me sick 🤢 to hear, I know you like them and that’s ok for you! I would never use protein powder or whey or whatever it was. The flavors sound great 👍! Are these oatmeal MRE’s just for you? It didn’t sound like it was more than a few meals and there are 5 of you. Will you be restaurant-ing along the way 🤔? I’m sure there are some nice cafes and diners that could use the business (or are you driving as fast as possible to get back before the FD’d food runs out?). Have FUN!!
Do you have anything good to say? If not, don't say anything at all. Better yet. Start your own channel and report back if you manage to get a single subscriber.
@cecilylehmann7011 Can you read English? A good part of my post was positive, most of my posts are positive. I referred to a couple other channels trying to be helpful. Did you watch her post from today? Where her family drove from AZ back home? That was ME she gave a shout-out to. Not you, me. Brooke likes me. I give lots of positive feedback. Have a great day!
I commented before I finished the video! Glad your girl is ok!
Thank you!! I’m so grateful too 🥰🥰🥰
Your neighborhood looks so gorgeous and idyllic. 😍

Glad Brea is doing well! The oatmeal looks delicious will be perfect for your trip!
🙏 thank you!!! Yes will be great to have on the road
Following from Avondale AZ. You went from one extreme to the other. It is beautiful there in the summer.
Haha exactly, went from extreme heat to extreme cold 😅 we got to AZ yesterday and I’m happy to feel some heat!!! I will be sick of it in a few days I’m sure
Glad she is ok

@@verdexj160 oh nice! Sounds great
Glad her eye is ok ❤
Thank you me too 🥰
These look yummy😋. I wonder if mango and pineapple would be a good mix. Hope you are ready for temperature extreme change 103🥵 .
Oh that sounds like it would be so good! Yeah we arrived yesterday and it’s hot but I’m happy to feel some warmth 😂😂 my kids keep saying how hot it is they sure aren’t acclimated like they used to be haha
@DIYfreezedry
Expecting 113 tomorrow🥵.
Love all your videos!
Thanks so much 🥰🥰🥰

I’m so excited for you to get started with your dryer! Thanks for watching I’m glad my videos have helped give you ideas 💕💕💕
I just got my replacement door for my black medium HR it’s the one the dog yanked off the counter ! Running a batch of candy now to see if it works! The unit fell on the floor and dented two corners on the hinge side of the machine !
Dang!! Those pesky pets 😆 But I'm so glad you got your replacement I hope it works!!!
@@DIYfreezedry Everything worked great ! Doing some pineapple and mangoes now along with a tray of strawberry yogurt
That’s a good testament to the machine and how well they work and stand up to such a crazy accident! I’m very surprised and happy that it works fine with just a few dents
does this work with cooking up regular Quaker oatmeal?
Yes you could use whatever oatmeal variety you like and freeze dry it! Even the pre packaged flavored ones
Whoohoo can’t wait!
I would use the pineapple juice to cook the oatmeal!
@@brucelarson4283 yum that’d be good!
If you like asparagus, it tastes great.
I love it! Great idea 🥰

I aways have some condensation dripping off the gasket during the process.

Where are you traveling in the RV?
We will be going from Arizona to Anchorage Alaska and seeing lots of places along the way!
👍👍👍👍👍
I attempted an update to my FD firmware, now I have a $4000 brick. Did you not say you had this problem? I would love to chat. Thanks!!!

Harvest right freeze drying company actually discourage the oil less pumps. They themselves say save your money.

Why do you put protein powder in your oatmeal? Are you a vegan? If not, I would just eat some meat instead of processed powder
