HINT- when making your vanilla make a slice in your bean length wise to get a better flavor. Thats what i do. I make 2 kinds one with dark rum and vodka.
@@ouralaskahomestead I tried spiced rum one year, wasn’t bad but it wasn’t great either. 😄😄 Getting ready to do rum balls for Christmas. I do those about 2 1/2 months ahead. make them put in sealed container till Christmas.
The nice thing about shopping at Costco is that if those shovels ever break, you can return them. Lots of Alaskans buy their generators from there for that reason. Lifetime return no questions asked.
Shopping with baby at this age is the best moment ! I just went to Costco today to shop with my family and my baby was sitting like this , I love this moment so much , and I realize time fly so fast that my older boy is just walking and hold hand instead !
I was completely floored when you were mixing the vodka with the vanilla beans. I had to go to my wife to get it explained. Great way to make vanilla flavoring. Thanks big time for sharing your experiences.
I am experimenting with using rum to in my vanilla making. Not as dark as my vanilla made with vodka but good favor. Gives a different flavor when baking.
My parents would go grocery shopping every six months. My dad was a Mennonite and my mom was English. we raised our own food and we had a big mennonite farm and farm animals. We milk our cows and goats and we had chicken and turkey and duck for fresh laying eggs and we had 2 acres for a large garden we grew our own fresh fruit and vegetables. We made our only butter and cheese and yogurt and ice cream my dad and five brothers would go hunting when hunting season open me and my three sisters and our mom would go start picking fresh fruit and vegetables from the large garden and we would start peeling and cutting up the fresh fruit and vegetables and we would be canning up the fresh fruit and vegetables and we would put some in the freezer to last all winter. We would plant in the spring and we would plant the fall fresh fruit and vegetables so we can have for canning.
Most people wouldn't survive on their own. We grow our own vegetables, have blueberry bushes and fruit trees. We also have a lake for fish and plenty of ducks that lay eggs. We also have free range chickens. We trade a farmer every year for a side of beef in exchange for our fresh sand we quarry as a business. The only thing we buy is milk and cheese from the dairy two miles from our house. America needs to learn how to use whatever area large or small to garden and plant fruit trees, learn how to can. Something needs to change with our attitude and culture towards food.
don't forget to be happy and grateful for all your blessings, you have a beautiful family, home, future. Don't let the stress ruin the moments you want as memories 20 yrs from now.
Now with vanilla beans off old bottle when done you can take the beans and cut them open and get beans out and add it to sugar and let set for awhile and it will change your baking
Just a quick suggestion. I have been making vanilla, coconut, coffee extracts for years. I found that cutting the vanilla beans in half lengthwise makes the vanilla stronger and darker. Plus, you can reuse the beans over 2-3 times just add vodka. And never drain the bottle leave about 1-2 inches in the vodka bottle. Good luck this winter.
Baby Rowan is adorable, first and foremost. Your haul was huge, the freezer being such a great purchase for you. As for your vanilla-vodka…..my jars are 4 years old now. I use a lot of vanilla but still, I haven’t even used 1/2 of it yet! Take care! Great video.
Great job at Costco, I know you still don’t have water but you’re looking a lot better this you than last. You’ve done a great job so far getting prepared for winter. Rowen is adorable, such a happy baby. Sorry. I missed your live today, I did just watch it. Great channel, always look forward to the next one. Thanks for letting us into your lives.
babies are so cute at that age when they are trying to find their voice. I can remember my 4 and I miss it so much. I lived in Alaska for 7 years back in 85 when I was stationed at Elmondorf AFB. I am retired now, but loved the Summers in Alaska.
Howdy guys! Just joined you for your live. 🤘 Now a new vid. 👏 Also, i'm not sure if you know this, general rule when it comes to frigerators and freezers. If you lay them down on their side, they have to be in the upright position for the same time as it layed down before firing it up.
Hello lorri omg 😲 well that was a lovely surprise seeing you and Cody and beautiful Rowan out doing your Costco shop you made my night what a sweet little girl she Is you are blessed you have just reminded me I think I'm due a new freezer as well mine is leaking take care now.👍👍👋👋❤❤❤
I came across Becca & Levi’s Alaska channel somehow and they mentioned your family so I came here and subscribed to your channel and turned notifications on. God bless you all.
I would’ve waited until the Coco and the chocolate chips were totally empty from the jar. That way you use the older stuff first if you keep topping it off the older stuff never gets used.
I just found videos about huge hauls at Costco, Azure & Walmart in Alaska...OMG! I can't imagine...BUT the baby really made me so happy. My "baby" just turned 51 & no grandchildren.. I will subscribe & watch your homestead & angel grow. I am in south Georgia so your scenery is awesome also. Wish you & yours all the best~
I have the same freezer and love it! You will be surprised how much you will be able to fit in it. Not a bad haul for 6 months. Consider hitting the Costco business center to pick up bulk tomatoes to can.
WOW - the planning & calculating for that trip must have been a lot, not to mention the cost, YIKES. Looks like you've got that down to a science. That must have been a long day. Good job on the deals too. Looks like you're pretty set.
Good stock up haul and only bought one thing off your list good job. Yes that freezer will be easier to keep organized. Glad to hear you have friend close Becca and Levi your little ones will enjoy growing up.
Hi I just happened upon your video. Well mostly because of this video. Between the Costco ,and the cute baby, I also watched your jam video. Very nice. This ole grandma can't pass up cute baby cooing sounds. All of mine are older. So anywaysi really like your cure lil family, that I decided to stay lol. So new subscriber.
I you have a dehydrator, then you can dry the vanilla pod once you are done with them. Grind them up an you have vanilla powder. Great in dry-mixes or mixed into sugar for vanilla sugar. I don't know if vanilla sugar is a thing in the states but it is here in Europe (or at least Scandinavia).
High quality vanilla beans and the cheapest vanilla make awesome vanilla extract. Put it in a cool dark place and leave it be for a while. The longer you leave it the better. My sister makes it for the whole family.
Hello, I'm from North Central Iowa and I was blessed enough by God to be able to do 80% of my winter stock up this month and will finish it the beginning of November. I also was able to restock my emergency items in my pantry. One thing that I'm getting next month that is not on my stock up list is going to buy powdered milk, Hershey's Coco, sugar. Iam going to make 2 big coffee cans full of homemade hot chocolate as Christmas gifts.
Hi from Wisconsin. I saw your Rice Lake shirt. We live south of Eau Claire. They now have a Costco. This is the first time we watched one of your videos.
I’ve been making vanilla for a while now and it works a lot better and it’s deeper, richer flavored when you cut the vanilla beans in half…, also the beautiful seeds come through in like your pastry creams, frostings, etc😊
thank you for sharing your shopping trip . To be honest , I did enjoy it . Your coming into winter and Australia is coming into summer . It's between 35 and 40c at the moment and summer starts on the 1st Dec , so we are going to boil this year .
Rowan is growing into a cute girl! and getting more and more vocal! Costco is a nice store to do family shopping, on not more than a monthly basis. The store is too large for me. We had seven children and used only cloth diapers. Yes, the washing machine did have to work on a steady basis. Times have changed, drastically!
Not sure if you know about this or not but there's a program in Alaska where you can get moose, caribou,etc.. it's run by Alaska Department of Public Safety (DPS), it's called the Roadkill Program.. if someone hits game and your on the list they'll call you to go get the meat so it doesn't go to waste.. it's a good alternative for people who don't hunt but want meat or werent successful on their hunt 🙂.. i have the same freezer and use it for berries and veggies.. i tried using it for meat but noticed it was too heavy for the drawers.. overall though, its a great freezer and way easier to use than a deep freezer.
I was stopped by an elderly woman who asked why my grandson had elastic bands on his wrist and arms and told her that there are not any he’s just chubby. So seeing you’re little one with the same rubber bands made me laugh 😂😂😂😂😂
And I buy diapers the same way 🤣 it’s just so handy to always have plenty! I have noticed all my babies have stayed in size 3 the longest ❤️ you did great on the sizes I would say!
This is truly eye-opening. I can't believe that these products are cheaper in Alaska than in the cities of Canada. There is incredible differentiation between Costco's from country to country. Did you know that on a trip to Britain I learned; that you have to be a Lord; Doctor; Barrister; Governmnet or emergency Service worker; etc. to even get a membership at Costco? I never can figure out how these huge corporations justify such huge differences. That shopping excursion would have cost triple at a Canadian Costco!
If you want a more robust flavor profile and color, make sure you split the bean before putting it in to your liquid. It'll still work unsplit, but I've found it's much better if you do!
Hi Beautiful Family,you got some Gd items Shopping, your Baby Girl is Absolutely Beautiful. Thank You for Sharing your Amazing Life's , till the Next, Stay Warm and Safe 🥰🥰🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴
In Greece make sawer cherry liqueur 1 kilo cherry 1 kilo sugar 2-3 glover and 2 stick cinnamon 40 days in sun in glass jar move the jar few time a week and is ready
When we where kids, my parents worked and we had a little farm with animals, and we did grow good for the animals for wintertime, we where 7 children, then they where ready we take them to Butcher them and we had to take 1/2 at the time at home so a Butcher Came to cut it all to pieces yo put it in the freezer, so yes ik like the idea ❤
at least in Alaska if you run out of freezer space, there is always outside to store food in until you have room in your freezer (I do it all the time). For the vanilla, you can reuse the vanilla beans too! I know they have to sit for a while but at least you can keep reusing the beans
I went camping (big trip, lots of people, long story 😂) and took a chest freezer, and an upright one. Had bought a generator to power them, which died on day one. The fod in the upright stayed frozen far longer in the upright than the chest freezer, which surprised me, but there you go.
If you make homemade ice cream, a little bit of the vanilla infused vodka will keep ice crystals from forming when you freeze the ice cream, especially if you do not run it thru an ice cream churn, for a creamier result.
Our plans are to scrape the old beans from our older batch of vanilla and use those in ice cream this winter! We love ice cream and are so excited to try making it ourselves. Thanks for the tip
I think you guys did great with your Costco buy. I think California prices are higher than Alaska. Love your freezer. Was wondering how do you guys afford to live in Alaska when either of you work?
HINT- when making your vanilla make a slice in your bean length wise to get a better flavor. Thats what i do. I make 2 kinds one with dark rum and vodka.
I think rum makes for a really rich flavor. Ive used bourbon before also, gives it a hint of caramel.

@@tmoomoo42 trial and error. Thanks for sharing, now I’ll know not to try that 😂
That's what I do too. It releases the inner part of the bean.
I clicked on this video only because of the baby. God bless her little soul. Precious 👍🙏
Me too. So cute! 🫶My daughter is 10 now, i miss those wonderful baby time. ❤
She’s adorable. Makes me smile with her jabbering. Like she’s trying to out talk mommy.

I am experimenting with using rum to in my vanilla making. Not as dark as my vanilla made with vodka but good favor. Gives a different flavor when baking.
I’ve made my vanilla for years now. Definitely worth it.
I've had the same 4 ounce bottle in my pantry for like 5 years, I never knew people could use that much.

When I make my vanilla I cut the beans open. It just adds more flavor 🙃🤗. Just slit down the side….Mmmmmm
I was coming to comment the same thing.
@@rrenda1 Me too!
Nice stock up trip! Love the new freezer. Rowan is getting so big. Thanks for sharing.
It’s so hard to judge what you need for that long, but looks like you did very well! I love seeing and hearing that sweet baby! Adds a real life feel.
Now with vanilla beans off old bottle when done you can take the beans and cut them open and get beans out and add it to sugar and let set for awhile and it will change your baking
I love when babies talk,they are so cute 😊
I just finished watching your live,and now another video. 👏👏👏👏😂😂😂
Your wee little baby is absolutely adorable. ❤❤❤
Great video good shopping haul love hearing Rowan taking she is growing so fast 😊
Make sure you get a door alarm for the freezer. Lots of people have lost all their stuff when the door did not close properly.
Ugh, this has happened 2 times to us. The alarm should be an automatic add on for a freezer
Beautiful child, and her talk, bet has Big Bad Wolf wrapped under her little fingers. Keep you all safe in your new home.💐👌🇵🇷

My granddaughter Romy is around Rowan’s age she is very vocal too, it’s joyful to hear x
It feels so good to have everything stocked up for the winter!! We live in the rural Idaho mountains and we do the same thing.

I don't know if vanilla sugar is a thing in the states but it is here in Europe (or at least Scandinavia).
I used to make a tincture with vodka and echinacea plants. It makes a good antibiotic.
I really like your channel. When I make vanilla extract I cut the vanilla beans in half length wise which makes the vanilla extract a lot darker.
Love your adorable baby!!!!
It’s the baby for me!!! 😍❤️❤️❤️❤️
You should grab a food saver vaccume sealer, it's great for salmon, moose, and dry goods. The food lasts much longer.
High quality vanilla beans and the cheapest vanilla make awesome vanilla extract. Put it in a cool dark place and leave it be for a while. The longer you leave it the better. My sister makes it for the whole family.
I really admire y’all,being young and have a beautiful family,you seem to have a great life,,cold but happy couple.

I would have used all my old cocoa and morsels before I put the new stuff in the jars. Always best to use the older stuff before the new.
You are a wise woman. You live and you learn.
@@ilzitek2419it's common sense
I think you should have wrote a list of what you need and how many items. It seems like you have done a monthly shop and not a winter stock up.
I feel that goes for everything and clean the containers as well.
I use the vanilla beans twice, so the ones you just finished with throw in your new bottle! With love from STL!
And I buy diapers the same way 🤣 it’s just so handy to always have plenty! I have noticed all my babies have stayed in size 3 the longest ❤️ you did great on the sizes I would say!

Best to score the vanilla beans before adding to the vodka...
Rowan is so cute.

Wishing you guys the best of luck! From India
Thanks for the video .
The vanilla beans should be sliced in half and you also need to make sure that liquid is always covering the tops of the beans or mold could grow.
She said mommy you better give me those sweets lol 😂
If you make homemade ice cream, a little bit of the vanilla infused vodka will keep ice crystals from forming when you freeze the ice cream, especially if you do not run it thru an ice cream churn, for a creamier result.

For some reason, they never answer that question.
They have said they are living off the sale of their home in the lower 48. And also the small amount from utube.
Dad stands around, and mom does all the lifting
Hope you make It good thru the winter,hello from Spain
Usually, when vanilla is made, it needs to sit with besn in the vodka for a few months or more in a cool dark area. I could be wrong
Yes, that just vanilla vodka!
If you get a bottle of white wine mix with vodka grate one orange large leave for xmas lovely good luck to both
Have you got good drainage around your house before the ground gets frozen? I hope you get your woodshed completed before the first snow.
Hi guys. That’s actually not bad price for 6months supply.
Thanks taking shopping trip
