  • My sister Hannah has arrived all the way from Paris France to show off her cooking skills, snowshoe, ski, craft, ride snow machines, pet the animals and sweat in the wood fired sauna! It was a perfectly relaxing visit at our Alaska cabin. That is...until something went terribly wrong...

    @aelaan12 Год назад +3

    Absolutely stunning, what a great time to play in the snow. Regarding the eggs, have you ever tried to put a lid on top of the pan and turn them even lower than what you had? The yoke will get cooked by the steam coming from the bottom. Keep the lid on there for 1.5 to 2 minutes. Take the lid off over the sink because it will have condens on it. I like that a lot since the bottom of the egg (the whites and some of the yoke) are yummy from the butter and the top is great with a little black pepper and if you dare.... cumin. It is best to put the cumin on before you put the lid on the frying pan.

I thought you were strong but she was carrying Norman like he weighed nothing. Also her and Norman must go skiing a lot they were so in sync the whole time.
    Hannah seemed so nice is there anywhere we can go to see the recipes she used and get more instructions? Or maybe share some of our own. I used to make these pepper Jack mashed potatoes that were so good.
    Your egg flip was so amazing but I think Hannah may have taught you that. Lol I can’t wait til the next episode so I can see what happens next. You really left me on a big cliff hanger this time. But at least I know you’re safe since you uploaded this video.
