  • Hi and welcome back to The KNeady Homesteader channel. Today, I am sharing with you some of my FAVORITE kitchen tools that have helped me get back into my kitchen, doing the things that I love! I pray this video helps you in maybe finding that one or two challenges you may have, and maybe gives you a solution to it, like these tools have done for me. I will leave as many links down below as I can, but if I can help you find something, just leave me a shout out down int he comments, and I will help you the best that I can. God bless and see you soon!
    My amazon Storefront can be found here.....and I have Lists divided into Categories to try to help you find the tool that I use that you may be looking for. This is my Amazon Associates link, it costs you nothing extra to use it but Amazon does pay me a very small earnings on every sale I get from my link. So it helps me support my kiddos. Thank you ahead of time if you choose to use my links. :)

      You got this Susan!!!! It's just a pivot. That's how I see it now. And my pivot, will help you pivot....and your pivot will help someone else pivot....and so on and so on. One thing I learned, at heaven's door while in my coma.....was that we really are here to learn two things.... love one another and forgive one another. That's all there is! I love you Sister..... we will pivot together!

      Completely agree. I never thought I would have a maid, I was a cleaning OCD. But 4 years in with Rheumatoid Arthritis and Giant Cell Arteritis, I no longer could clean like that. Now, I am so thankful God makes provision so I can have a professional cleaning service. Give thanks in everything! 🙌🙏🙌

    Heather, not only did I enjoy seeing the gadgets that you demonstrated, but I so very much needed to hear what you said towards the end of your video! I also experienced a TBI several years ago and, with God's grace, made it through. It is like grieving the loss of who you were. I recently had to retire unexpectedly due to MS, but right before that I had had my whole kitchen tore out and have not been able to fix it! Your kind words let me know that God sees exactly where I'm at and that He cares. I had just been reminiscing about how I used to cook for the holidays, and was feeling very sad when your video popped up. He always amazes me! Thank you, for your obedience. God bless!❤

    • @TheKneadyHomesteader
      @TheKneadyHomesteader  7 месяцев назад +9

      I LOVE when the Holy Spirit works like that! Then you were one of the souls laying on my heart today to make this video. I am so sorry about your TBI and your MS diagnosis.... this life is full of such suffering and sorrow, but it's all about how we choose to pivot....how we choose to love and live and forgive through all of it. Helping one another. Loving one another. Look at this amazing platform brought us together! hahaha AMAZING! God is so good, and this video was for you, from him....I was just his tool to get you the message. God bless you sis! So much love to you.

    This video was so inspiring to me, it was just what I needed. I just told my husband last night that I wished you would do a video on some of the tools you use in the kitchen and boom your video popped up today. God is so amazing, thank you for doing this. I just ordered the can opener and got one for my dad also. I suffer from arthritis in my back and I have a lot of joint pain so I have been trying to get any and all handy dandy tools I can find to make it easier on me to be in the kitchen and do the things I love. God bless you and have a great night with your sweet children.

  • @sleepinglioness5754
    @sleepinglioness5754 7 месяцев назад +2

    A BIG thank you, Heather for these ideas especially the under cabinet lid opener idea!
    I just discovered a great aid for painful fingers = finger rings. They are great to use when sleeping to prevent your fingers/hands from clenching and causing stiffness and pain.
    It is best to buy them in person so you can try them on (they come in different sizes), or you can have custom made rings at a higher cost, of course. They're usually described as arthritis finger rings.
    Thanks again, Heather. I don't know how you ever managed. My hands were injured in a car accident (not as bad as yours, though), so I know how incredibly difficult it is to manage. You're our inspiration, my dear.

I am so so sorry for the loss of your beloved. Only another widow or widower can fully understand that level of loss. It changes everything! I am so glad you redoing well. God and his tender mercies....and his grace. Thank you Lord for being so close to the brokenhearted.

I hate the fact that you all suffered such a tragic loss, but, so thankful God was able to bring you back to us, as I love watching your channel and you are an inspiration to us all.

    I truly appreciate you making this video for those of us that need these types of tools to help us work in the kitchen. After 7 months of not having a job, my husband finally managed to find one. He was my jar opener so now I need that jar opening gadget. I love the flour duster!

    Love this. My husband shattered his wrist and had the same hardware put in. 10 months later the harware actually severed his thumb tendon, so back into surgery he went to replace the tendon and reattatch it. They also removed the hardware. The surgeon said his bones were a mess and didnt heal right and would likely need another surgery to rebreak his wrist and put hardware back in. Fast forward to about 6 weeks later my husband healed and had no issues regarding pain, his range of motion is for sure changed, he has limitations and things have changed. He uses the can opener as physio 😅, but as he ages i would def consider things like your can opener once arthritis sets in.

    Thanks for this video. I am wheelchair bound and I found that just a wire clothes hanger with a loop big enough to to go over my cabinet knobs and the other end is just a hook so I can pull my spice rack to the front of the cabinet so I can reach them. My rack is just a little wrought iron double shelf that holds the spice bottles perfectly. I opened a drawer and put the jar opener under the drawer to open my jars. I can't reach it if it's under the upper cabinet. Drawers usually have a space under the bottom and this works well. I use an electric can opener and I also have a battery operated one. I also have a cutting board that fits on my lap and I can carry things, chop things, and do small jobs at a comfortable height. Maybe my things can help some one too. Love you and your videos.

    Thank you, Heather your video did help me tremendously. It inspired & encouraged me. When I got divorced, I felt I had lost my identity because I was no longer a wife. Then I lost my mom in 2021, so I was no longer a caregiver. That was another facet of my identity that I felt I lost. However, I just purchased her house. So, I'm struggling to find my identity again. I came across this video this morning & I want to thank you because these "gadgets" would be amazing assets to my kitchen, as I broke my finger on my dominant right hand just trying to do something around this house & I have arthritis. So it has been a challenge to do the basic things around here. Again thank you so much! : )

Keep smiling 😊 God loves you and so don’t I .

    Thank you Heather, for sharing these great tools, even for us that are just getting older and body parts are getting tired.
    Just wondering about the oil and vinegar dispensers. Do they seal shut, to prevent bugs getting in? Sometimes in my kitchen these little buggers appear out of nowhere!
    Bench scrapers are the best, aren't they!
    I'm glad you related the challenges you're still having, though it makes me sad to see. Your smile makes us forget you still struggle in many ways. May Jesus continue to give you strength, joy, and complete miraculous healing, from head to toe! ❤

    God only knows how much I needed to watch this video. I suffer from degenerative arthritis which has progressed quickly and has made so many things I love to do truly difficult. Handling my canners and even removing casseroles from the oven have become a hard and dangerous task these days, so I’m so glad you shared these items that will make things much easier and remove the sense of feeling that I won’t be able to do these things on my own. Thank you and God bless you Heather, may the Most High continue to use you through this platform that has made a huge difference for so many of us. Truly grateful❤️❤️❤️

    My dad bought a meat locker/butcher shop more than 40 years ago that had been closed and put the butcher block in their kitchen. When they moved, it was so heavy that they just left it. I really miss it. It was wonderful. I enjoyed this video because I have some health challenges. Several years ago, I watched quite a few RUclips videos about kitchens of the 40s and 50s where they had sit down workspaces. I revamped my kitchen to make some spaces like that because I’m short and regular countertops are too tall, which makes working in the kitchen burdensome and less fun. Having workspaces at the right height, and the right tools, makes all the difference and the world. It’s nice to see more options for making my time in the kitchen even easier.

    @laurieclarkson9180 6 месяцев назад

    It really resonated with me when you were talking about suffering from anxiety and how baking bread and doing things in the kitchen were a way for you to cope with it and after your injuries, one of the difficult things was not being able to be you or feel like you and not being able to cope in the way you were used to coping. I was actually in deep thought about that the past few days. I also had health issues that took a long time to recover from and financially, I lost everything. I got married around the same time and at first everything seemed fine, but I soon learned that I was in a financially abusive relationship and had zero autonomy, no help gaining my independence, no access to money etc.. and I didn't realize how I used things like my car, my phone, or money to cope or self-soothe when things got rough. We all call a friend when we're angry or depressed and afterwards we feel so much better or if we're in a fight or situation we don't want to be in, we can get in our car just to take a drive and get out of the house or we can use money to buy ourselves a nice birthday present or just spend a day shopping and I never realized how much those things helped me cope until I lost them. So I really teared up when you talked about losing coping mechanisms and it's horrible because you feel so stuck like you have no where to turn, but also like you mentioned, when you feel like you have nothing left and no way to cope, you turn inwardly to your faith, changing your mindset and getting resourceful like you did here with finding gadgets that could assist you! Bless you, you beautiful soul! Your videos bring me so much comfort and I have learned so much from you over the years and it warms my heart to watch your journey of growth! It is so inspiring!

    Thankyou, Heather, so much. I have fibromyalgia and osteoporosis, and l do miss the old Bev, who was a drumming bunny, with no Off Button. (Need a hand? Bev'll do it. Need that wardrobe shifted? Bev'll do it.) I planted trees, and dug the holes in compacted clay as hard as. But not now. Inside, l am still me, but my body just won't/can't do what it used to. And yes, l have found asking God for inspiration and advice has been so good. Like l say to Him.... He got me into this, so He must know the way out, over, around or through it. And He does. I had a jar opener that worked the same as your can opener. Absolutely wonderful, as l had had a "mystery virus" that took all the strength from my arms, hands and fingers. After a year or so, it finally met a lid it couldn't open, and busted a gasket trying, poor thing...but it was good while it lasted. Haven't seen one since, sadly, but thank God my hands etc have vastly improved over the years... Thankyou for your encouragement, and sharing these great ideas. Love to you, and God bless. X0 ❤🫂
