I know you sometimes think twice about showing food prep on Garden Answer ~ but in my mind it fits perfectly. Showing how you make simple, wholesome, and delicious meals using the bounty from your harvest is the icing on the cake. Love seeing the little one learning skills right along side you. Keep doing what you are doing. So inspiring in so many ways. 🌱💝🫶🏼
To all the new viewers, Laura has a Garden Highlight channel on RUclips that she does a video on Sunday and goes over each video from the past week and answers questions.
@@verawallace9055Oh I'm sure people still do yes..she may have mentioned in a past video she was sorta steering away from opening mail videos to more focus on gardening aspect...
Just love this channel, not only do we see you get your hands dirty doing the hard work but all of the fun light stuff like going antiquing with mom and cooking a delicious dinner. You show us just livin life with a family, kids playing in the background and helping cooking. This is by far my favorite garden channel 😍 ❤️
Cutting up marshmallows? While you get the real work done? BRILLIANT! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I can't get over what a good idea that is. She gets to be involved safely, you get dinner going quickly at the end of a long day, and you both get to spend time together. Bravo, mama! Oh, how I wish I could go back in time and not rush, be patient, and enjoy that time more. ❤️
Oh, how I remember the days of frozen pipes! I thank God that we're in a warm home and no longer have to deal with this anymore. God bless you for the care you give to your livestock.
“Calls for one clove of garlic so we’re going to use 4” ❤ My husband and I are the exact same way! We always use more garlic 😂 Samantha Grace cutting marshmallows is the cutest thing! I love when you cook from your garden and show us what you’ve made. Thank you once again for a great day 😊
We need a weekly cooking segment with you and Samantha. Lol. You had mentioned potentially doing home reno segments before but you wondered if anyone would watch since it isn't technically on theme. I don't think you realize how invested we all are in any aspect of your life. Lol. You guys make it all interesting and exciting. Safe to say we're all sticking around for literally anything you want to show us. Lol.
That pretty red amaryllis showed up so pretty in the Hartley. What a winter wonderland with the snow covered trees and shrubs !! Love watching you cook, looks sooo good ! So great hearing all the chatter of your sweet kids.
You know, I remember your recent shopping trip when you found a picture and a frame that you loved together… What do you think about finding your favorite focal point on your property and taking a photo of it when it is snow-covered like this!? You can always find a frame that you love! And it’s very easy to upload photos to a Walmart or CVS… Think about it! This is absolutely stunning! I think this would be something that is more priceless to you than anything else hanging on the wall that you purchased at a store.
It would be nice if you could do a cooking video every week. It was so enjoyable to see you inside where it is cozy and comfortable with your sweet family. It is kind of hard to see you out in the harsh elements all the time. This was wonderful.
This made me chuckle - chopped/cubed up the potatoes with a teeny, tiny knife. Then chopped the small rosemary leaves with a big chef’s knife. What the heck? 😜
Life hasn’t been very fair lately especially today so being able to step into Garden Answer world eased my weary soul! Thank you! And tell Samantha I love marshmallows too!💕
Sorry you got sick, but glad to hear you are feeling better! It’s such a great feeling to get things cleaned up, seeds started, and a yummy meal on the table for the family - all in one day 🥰
Nice recipe the chicken and potato's and salad nice dinner, that so cute Sam helping in kitchen specially when she popped marsh mallow in her mouth so sweet.
Love this kind of videos Where you take us along in all that you do in the day and not just the garden. Gives me a minute of peace watching you and hearing your voice! I’m so thankful for what you and Aaron do!
I can’t tell you how much I love your channel! I watch every single day and follow what you are doing to the best of my ability. You give great instructions and are a pleasure to watch! Thank you for being here!!!!!
Even though you weren’t feeling very well today, you made this all encompassing video as a day in your life of gardening and family that shows the dedication you have to both and to your followers! ❤️
A lot of channels try to keep their children and personal life out of videos. I love being a part of your family❤ Samantha is full on speaking 😮 she's growing up so fast. I've watched your channel since day 1! Will always be a fan of all your content. ❤
For the 1st time, I think, I didn't get a notification for one of your videos. Just letting you know, in case others had this issue. Thanks for all y'all do!
That fireplace complete with table and chair in front of it next to the kitchen area looks so cozy. The white blanket of snow outside makes it even more cozy! God bless your family.
Just wanted to say that I ordered some products from your shop and was very impressed with the delivery turn over even allowing for the Christmas period AND the fact that I'm in Melbourne Australia. I know that I could have got Felco products here, but wanted to support you. Also the sweat shirt is such good quality, and a great fit. I'll be ordering more now I know how good you guys are. My daughter likes the idea that I've become a grandma Garden Answer groupie!. Thank for all the inspiration, been following you since your town house days and my garden reflects all your wisdom.
Perfection! A day with Laura doing all the things and dinner with the fam at the end. The recipe looked amazing and I think doing the shopping in your root cellar and green house is amazing!
Everyone, everywhere is sick right now! I had Covid in November and it lasted 3 weeks and it was awful! I am thankful I haven’t been sick since then and I pray for healing for all the sick people out there this winter! Happy gardening from Southern Illinois this morning. Snow expected here! ☃️❄️
GOOD AFTERNOON - thank you for a delightful video, kids, cats, snow, a husband, a fire place burning, homemade dinner, a light snow fall, and a beautiful Mother that does a host of many things. Love your work, and happy that you share with us. So interesting.
I was so immersed in this video...❤ when you showed the rosemary salt I tried to smell it and put my phone up to my face. 😂 I laughed at myself. Anyone else? Probably just me.
I just love watching the kids grow up. have been watching since they were baby's. My favorite cat is Russell he has chosen you as his pet, and always makes sure you do things right and gives his approval . 😺😻
I love watching your videos! With everything you do in one video, I wish I was young again (70 this month). Douglas follows you everywhere! I haven't seen Cheddar in a while, but on the videos it's hard to see the difference in Russell and Cheddar. I love to see Samantha in the kitchen with you and Benjamin playing.
Oh my goodness, definitely trying that chicken and potato recipe thank you Laura!!! And you had my 12 month old mesmerised watching you cook alongside Samantha! She literally stood in awe for 6 or so minutes! Perfect time for this Mama to enjoy a “hot” coffee! 😂
I love the projects where the kids are in and out, doing their thing. It's refreshing to see parents just living their best lives: they work, they teach, they play, the encourage growth. Lucky children: one who is destined to be a General and one who will be an Artisan. Thank you.
Hi you’re a pro in the Garden :) and I’m kinda a pro with croup and or breathing issues. If you or your family have the breathing issues again bundle them up (don’t over do bundling them up and go outside. If it’s summer head in the freezer it is. The cold air makes the bronchi go down thus breathing is much better. I don’t know how many hours I’ve sat in a chair outside with a child on my lap. 2 of my kids were really bad when they were babies all the way to this present day. My son would take his self outside or tell me we have to go outside cuz he can’t breathe. I’ve passed it on to others and it’s helped their family member too.
I make rosemary potatoes all the time, so yummy. Also recommend adding feta in the roast if you have some. It cooks faster but gives it a nice texture.
Sad to see the Christmas tree go but it is time. Planting is done and a delicious meal to look forward to. Rest and enjoy the rest of the day and feel better! Carole Smialowicz.....🥰😘
By far my favorite channel and utube family ❤ i feel safe when i watch the videos.. nothing happens to make me hurry and mute or turn the channel. Im always encouraged that there are good people left in this world🎉it really has been an enormous blessing in my life😊 im so grateful and thankful for this dear family. ...i keep them all in my prayers 🙏🏻
Just a potato seasoning tip we use is to throw all the potato’s in a ziplock bag and “shake and bake” it to get adequate even coverage of the potatos before dumping them on the cookie sheet. 425 for 25 minutes is perfect for roasting them I’ve found. By the way, using marshmallows with a plastic knife was a perfect idea for the kids!!!

Showing how you make simple, wholesome, and delicious meals using the bounty from your harvest is the icing on the cake. Love seeing the little one learning skills right along side you.

YES the Farm to Table parts are so inspiring. ❤ I always love to see children involved and inspiring them for the future ❤ God Bless!!
Totally agree
I just like that the cooking isn’t complicated. 😂
AGREED😍
❤yep I agree as well
When Samantha was singing my dog got so excited. He thought a kid was here to visit. I had to show him that no one was on the porch. 😂
Your doggo is so darling!
@@freedomofreligion3248 thanks, his name is Boone.
Love it 💕
Oh how sweet. I started cry because I thought that was so sweet 😂😂😂❤
Awe that is adorable ❤

I love the Sunday recaps!
Thanks! Good to know!

I wonder if people still send her gifts, used to be one of my favorite videos along with bulbs planting
@@verawallace9055Oh I'm sure people still do yes..she may have mentioned in a past video she was sorta steering away from opening mail videos to more focus on gardening aspect...
LOVE Douglas!!! Mr Personality!!😊😊

They do a fantastic job. They all seem so hardworking and kind. Lovely family and extended family.
Totally agree. This is my favorite You Tube Channel. Everything is right in the world when I escape to Laura’s world!! ❤😊😘❤️🕊🌸🪴
Same
Everything looks so beautiful covered in snow ❄️ Samantha cooking with you was the sweetest thing ever ❤️

Mmmmmm! I love listening to all the sounds of your family in the house while you're cooking.❤ So sweet!
Oh, how I remember the days of frozen pipes! I thank God that we're in a warm home and no longer have to deal with this anymore. God bless you for the care you give to your livestock.
Love the cleaning up, planting, and especially the family being together at the end of the video.
“Calls for one clove of garlic so we’re going to use 4” ❤ My husband and I are the exact same way! We always use more garlic 😂
Samantha Grace cutting marshmallows is the cutest thing! I love when you cook from your garden and show us what you’ve made. Thank you once again for a great day 😊
Totally so agree on the garlic part! Can’t have enough yummy garlic! 😊
Such a cute family to watch for sure!
Thanks for having us to dinner!!! Fun to see the family having a "together" meal!

Awe that was my favorite tree this year. Just loved those natural colors with a bit o’ bling. I hope to see it again next year.
I agree. I especially loved the large circular orange slices. 🌸
I was thinking that I will have to do a tree like that at my house next Christmas! 💚 So lovely!
May God bless you all this year with great health!

The fact that kids are just playing.. and not sitting on their electronic devices is melting my heart ♥️ love your family
So fun to spend the day with Laura! Feel better.
It would be nice if you could do a cooking video every week. It was so enjoyable to see you inside where it is cozy and comfortable with your sweet family. It is kind of hard to see you out in the harsh elements all the time. This was wonderful.
What a fulfilling day! Samantha is so precious! Both she and Benjamin are sweet, loving and beautiful children ❤
Douglas demonstrating his Pilates this morning. Good job Douglas!❤
This made me chuckle - chopped/cubed up the potatoes with a teeny, tiny knife. Then chopped the small rosemary leaves with a big chef’s knife. What the heck? 😜
That little kitchen helper melts my heart! The chicken and potatoes look delicious. Thanks for sharing.
Life hasn’t been very fair lately especially today so being able to step into Garden Answer world eased my weary soul! Thank you! And tell Samantha I love marshmallows too!💕
Gosh I never thought about going outdoors to do yard work in the dead of winter, but I like that a lot.
I❤your family. Benjamin waiting at the table for your yummy dinner, so precious 🥰
Sorry you got sick, but glad to hear you are feeling better! It’s such a great feeling to get things cleaned up, seeds started, and a yummy meal on the table for the family - all in one day 🥰
What a treat to be able to go to storage and collect items for a meal! 👏🏼👍🏼
Nice recipe the chicken and potato's and salad nice dinner, that so cute Sam helping in kitchen specially when she popped marsh mallow in her mouth so sweet.
Love this kind of videos Where you take us along in all that you do in the day and not just the garden. Gives me a minute of peace watching you and hearing your voice! I’m so thankful for what you and Aaron do!
Thank you for NOT editing the kids out of this! I love the posts that include the whole family best..
I can’t tell you how much I love your channel! I watch every single day and follow what you are doing to the best of my ability. You give great instructions and are a pleasure to watch! Thank you for being here!!!!!
I could watch Miss Samantha Grace cut up lemons for hours 😂 She is absolutely adorable! It’s hard to believe how fast she’s growing!
The kids are growing up so fast. Bless this family, I love them so much 😊
Oh my goodness! Look from inside the Hartley outside at the snowy scene. Absolutely stunning!
love this mix of fun in this video! i love your cooking videos too
From the "smell it!" To the "oh hoo ho yum" sound effects! Love how you react to delicious food lol that's how I sound when I'm in the kitchen
😂❤That cute, fluffy, silly Douglas, and cute little Russell and of course the elusive but equally cute Cheddar.Love them.❤❤❤
Even though you weren’t feeling very well today, you made this all encompassing video as a day in your life of gardening and family that shows the dedication you have to both and to your followers! ❤️
I always absolutely love the cooking videos you do! It’s so fun to see what you do with the produce you grow. Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤
I love watching you cook with your own harvest. ❤. Samantha is so cute. She resembles your mom. 😊
So nice to have that produce available on your beautiful acreage!
I love the meal prep and family portion. ❤ I love how you gave Samantha Grace her own little set up. So sweet.
The shelves Paul made look sooo good! Everything's so tidy. That's gotta feel good🤩
I love seeing you and the kids cook in the kitchen! Thank you for sharing every day home-life stuff!
A lot of channels try to keep their children and personal life out of videos. I love being a part of your family❤
Samantha is full on speaking 😮 she's growing up so fast. I've watched your channel since day 1! Will always be a fan of all your content. ❤

A fountain would look and sound so nice in greenhouse ❤
Warms my heart to see you all sit together, at the dinner table, enjoying a meal. Love it!
When someone else does the cooking it always looks easy. It's too soon to start seeds here so I enjoy watching you.
That fireplace complete with table and chair in front of it next to the kitchen area looks so cozy. The white blanket of snow outside makes it even more cozy! God bless your family.
Thanks for sharing the recipe and a little of your family dinner time. That was FUN! 👍😊
It is quite a sacrifice for you guys to allow us into your lives as you do. Bless you and your husband. The children are used to it!
I never expected to see roses being trimmed in the snow. 😮 Got a good chuckle this morning. Always spreading joy!
Just wanted to say that I ordered some products from your shop and was very impressed with the delivery turn over even allowing for the Christmas period AND the fact that I'm in Melbourne Australia.

Samantha is a mini me...( Meaning u).....cant wait to see her grow up & learn so much from u. ❤
Dinner looks delicious! Fresh herbs makes everything better. Loved how Samantha helped with marshmallows😊
Perfection! A day with Laura doing all the things and dinner with the fam at the end. The recipe looked amazing and I think doing the shopping in your root cellar and green house is amazing!

Happy gardening from Southern Illinois this morning. Snow expected here! ☃️❄️
Looking yummy ❤PEACE AND PEACE WITH BLESSINGS 🙏
GOOD AFTERNOON - thank you for a delightful video, kids, cats, snow, a husband, a fire place burning, homemade dinner, a light snow fall, and a beautiful Mother that does a host of many things. Love your work, and happy that you share with us. So interesting.
Awe, so awesome that you had help in the kitchen. I got those same ‘knives’ for my great niece for Christmas! ❤️
It's so beautiful where you live with the snow. You're doing a great job teaching Samantha how to use a knife and showing her to cook.
First time seeing someone do yard work in snow.... oddly satisfying 😂😅
I love how Laura cooked and ate her dinner in her jacket! I do that often and don't even realize it. Life of a busy mom..or dad! Peace and blessings!
I was so immersed in this video...❤ when you showed the rosemary salt I tried to smell it and put my phone up to my face. 😂 I laughed at myself. Anyone else? Probably just me.
Good to see Samantha feeling better and doing well. She's a good little helper! The dinner looked wonderful!
I miss having a cozy fire. Yours looks so nice. The house I living in now doesn't have a fireplace. The supper looked tasty as well.
This is the first video I have seen since Paul built shelving. Very efficient! Good job.
Perfect natural colors for the Hartley!
What a cozy picture, with snow outside, family inside enjoying time together around the table. Thanks for sharing!
Dinner looks delicious,Fresh herbs,Love Samantha helped with ,👏😘
Everything is so pretty!
I just love watching the kids grow up. have been watching since they were baby's. My favorite cat is Russell he has chosen you as his pet, and always makes sure you do things right and gives his approval . 😺😻
From snow to dinner ❤, Everyone and everything just complements each other , great family 🎉😊…
And we loved seeing your beautiful family enjoying the fruits of your labor!❤
What a sweet family.
I love watching your videos! With everything you do in one video, I wish I was young again (70 this month). Douglas follows you everywhere! I haven't seen Cheddar in a while, but on the videos it's hard to see the difference in Russell and Cheddar. I love to see Samantha in the kitchen with you and Benjamin playing.
Mary! I am also turning 70 years young this month. Happy Birthday to us! (I am also Mary!)
Wow! All in a day! Loved watching this video! Love you guys!❄️🌿🎄🍋🥔🧅🍽️
Hope you are feeling better loved seeing the garden coated in snow and that chicken dish looked yummy I must try making it !!
Pleasant day with a little planting a sweet moments for the whole family!❤
Great video, Laura. You’re a Jack of all trades. I’ve learned so much about gardening from you. Thank you for that. 😊
Oh my goodness, definitely trying that chicken and potato recipe thank you Laura!!!
And you had my 12 month old mesmerised watching you cook alongside Samantha! She literally stood in awe for 6 or so minutes! Perfect time for this Mama to enjoy a “hot” coffee! 😂
It’s the cream and fresh lemon that makes it🌸
Laura, I absolutely ❤ the family videos. I feel so included 😊 when you take me along!
I love the projects where the kids are in and out, doing their thing. It's refreshing to see parents just living their best lives: they work, they teach, they play, the encourage growth. Lucky children: one who is destined to be a General and one who will be an Artisan. Thank you.

Precious; thanks for sharing your day!!!
Your kids are just adorable.
Your gardens are so beautiful in the snow! Please do a walk through video whenever it snows! 🙏 That never gets old! I am here in Florida
Nice video for a winter morning. How great to be able to feed your family from your own harvest!!!
I loved Benjamin’s “Ooooooo” at his dinner plate. ❤
I make rosemary potatoes all the time, so yummy. Also recommend adding feta in the roast if you have some. It cooks faster but gives it a nice texture.
I think you have a chef on your hands! Awesome knife skills! ❤
