I apologize for my long absence. I was really sick for a few weeks, but so thankful to be all better now, and back to my routine!! Thanks for watching my channel! xo Rachel
I'm happy to say that I've noticed you seem to be a lot happier in Tennessee, not that you weren't before in California, but you seem to be a more relaxed happy if that makes sense. 😀
Hola chica! I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! I liked your recipe for the tacos. I am Mexican and something that we do to add a little more flavor to refried beans is that we put a little olive oil in the pan, heat it up and add chopped onions, like a quarter of an onion for 1 can, and like 1 clove of garlic. Let them stir-fry a little, and then once they're nice and sautéed add the beans and mix together. So good! 👌🏽 Thank you for all your videos. I really enjoy watching them! 🙂
Loving the sound of your garden plans and chickens. The wildflower idea for your property is going to look gorgeous and bring pollinator's. Glad your feeling better. My daughter just recovered from covid and so many people have had the Flu this season. Sooo looking forward to spring and warmer weather.
I was born in Nashville, raised in GA, and currently live in AL. Until you kept saying "forest," I didn't realize that southerns don't really use that word. Them there be the woods, Rachel! 🤠 But forest sounds much more whimsical!
It is SO good to see you back Rachel!! I hope you and your family are feeling better ❤ Thank you so much for sharing such beautiful and uplifting content!!! Cannot wait to see GARDEN SEASON 🪴
Great to see you back, Rachel! I will also be planting seeds and flowers soon here in PA. Your video inspires me to get moving on the cleaning, trimming, etc, that needs to be done in preparation for gardening season. Would love to see a weekly video post by you. Your lifestyle is very similar to mine - natural, outdoorsy, active, and music-loving. Peace and health to you and yours!
Hi Rachel! I've been watching your channel (from Hungary) since your older son was little. 🙂 I love that you are so conscious about your self-care as well, beside other tasks. It's such a huge inspiration and motivation for me! I wish I could do it as regular as you do,cause it's so important! Thank you for work,here in RUclips! I wish you all the best! 🙂 Greetings,Eszter
Glad to see you're back! Your family is so sweet. Can you do a video on your hair care routine. Maybe, also what you have used to help grow your hair back healthy :)
Hi Rachel , you can add little oil in that potato like take out potato and then add oil and spices then add the same texture of potato its a India dish (aloo (potato) bhuna (rosted)) every home have their own spice a style but yea this is all we grow up having this easy a simple. And you can skip mayonnaise and add yogurt along with mint etc everything remain same. You can add a sprinkler spice mix (can be added to any thing) coriander seeds, cumin seeds, whole black pepper, and salt roast all of it without any oil and ground it in coarse
I've been following you since before you were pregnant with your first, i'm 25 now and love catching up with your videos from time to time. Love your content x from Canada (also i watched an episode of berenstein bears the other day for fun and then you were reading that book)
Love this song!! Im a big fan of David and AiiLA. David, I hope you travel overseas to make your music video for this song. I can see the most beautiful music video with this song. Thank you for such a happy and beautiful song!!!
M severely craving beans n potatoes. I made chicken n beef taco but it’s not hitting the spot for me today. M not getting the satisfaction as my mind is stuck on beans n potatoes. This will cure that itch
@@racheltalbott hi, ohhhh, okay. You bought the same one you had before, (same model)? I'm gonna buy what you have..it's looks like it really cleans well....
Do you mean the products that pop up during the video? I was experimenting with those today. I might be able to change the placement of those. I will look into this. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
@@racheltalbott ya Rachel.. Just a suggestion.. Earlier the products would appear and leave which is good.. We would know that the links are available... Now its just stuck on the screen / on the video and it covers up a lot of the video and obstructs the video.. We don't need them pinned I suppose :)
No. Not at all. He was filming this video haha He was working outside all day clearing the forest before we started filming, but we just didn't capture footage of him this time. We used to use more tripod shots, and be in each others videos more, but lately we've been filming each other and getting more hand held camera shots. He literally does everything from cleaning, cooking, yard work, and we work on our business together. We're very much a team with everything! I will try to capture him in more videos soon. xo
Watch "dairy is scary" a 5 minute video on how dairy cows and calves are treated for people's taste pleasure then watch "the best speech ever" Gary Yourofsky. If you are against animal abuse you would be and promote veganism not vegetarianism and be a voice for the animals in hell, being treated worse than our worst criminals. I cannot judge, as I was paying to hurt animals all my life. I can only tell others as noone told me, I person can make a difference. Its 2024. We can no longer plead ignorance for our victimful pleasures caused by being speciesists
Not sure if it's just the mic quality or the way you're angled when speaking but it makes it really difficult to watch your videos with the 's' 't' 'e' being so harsh. I find myself always needing to turn your audio down significantly compared to other videos because tbh, it hurts. I like your content but it's definitely something I've noticed and after not watching you for a while, coming back just reminds me of why I had to stop. I never noticed as much when it was just your music that was too loud compared to the vibes of the video, but the vocal audio is too harsh ignore. Hoping for improvements soon, thanks
Hey there. I appreciate you letting me know. Such a bummer to hear you had to stop watching because of that. I wonder if other people feel the same? 🙁 I guess I need to understand the complaint to know how to fix it… is the audio (in general) louder than other videos? I’ve been told before my audio is too low… Or is it possibly just the way I speak that you don’t like? I’ve been told my s’s are harsh when I speak into a microphone, and there’s not a whole lot I can do about that, except maybe go to a speech therapist. 😕 ooor maybe there’s a setting on the mic I can use to reduce the harshness. Possibly record farther back. I will experiment. Hopefully I can resolve this. My hope would be for these to be relaxing and not grating.
@@racheltalbott Just my two cents, Rachel. I'm a musician and always felt I have very "tuned in" ears. I've never had any problems with the audio in your videos or heard any mic clipping. I listen via my TV, Google pixel earbuds, another type of headphones and just my phone speaker. I was trying really hard to understand what they are talking about as well but couldn't hear it! It may just be the way you pronounce certain consonants which you can't help and shouldn't have to change.
@@racheltalbott Oh I don't think it's the way you speak at all, I think it's just an audio issue to be honest. Perhaps a new mic you started using, or a new way you've recorded your voice overs for the past... well I'm not sure how long since it's been quite some time. I guess the best way I can describe it is, think ASMR videos where they speak in a whisper, except for turn up the audio on that significantly to where it's too harsh for the ears and is no longer pleasant. Just based on some quick googling, it looks like there might be ways to adjust your plosives and sibilance depending on which software your use or even just the mic you're using.
@@arabella5871 We definitely aren't musicians here, but from what I've quickly googled, there seems to be an issue with sibilance and plosives that might just be due to her mic or the audio adjustments she's making when she's recording her voice overs. I just skipped to a random spot, 1:02 to 1:08 and you can hear pretty strong examples of this. In this case, I would need to turn her audio down and then readjust once I move on to someone's else's for it to be comfortable.
Meant to add, a great example would be the first 30 seconds of your "garden work" section of the vlog. Or even in the intro where you're talking about recipes and spring. Please let me know if this makes sense@@racheltalbott
Great video but with all due respect - You lost me when you mentioned Farmer Wants A Wife.... HUH??! What is that show?! Research shows that people who watch reality TV develop feelings of entitlement and self-importance... NOPE! I follow my pastor's advice and I DO NOT watch any reality TV. AND according to scientific research - watching any reality TV can be just as addicting as drugs! Uhhhhhhh NO!
Girl you really should relax Rachel can relax with a show every once in a while if she so chooses. Your pastor should focus on teaching you less about reality TV and more about passing less judgement
I apologize for my long absence. I was really sick for a few weeks, but so thankful to be all better now, and back to my routine!! Thanks for watching my channel!

No need to apologise Rachel. Good video! Love your content. Hope you have recovered well.❤
You don't have to apologize! We're always here ❤
I'm happy to say that I've noticed you seem to be a lot happier in Tennessee, not that you weren't before in California, but you seem to be a more relaxed happy if that makes sense. 😀
Aww i love how the dog just stays at your side 🐾 🥰

Hey Rachel, what's the name of the device you used to whizz up the sauce? It was a great, small size! Thanks!
Magic bullet ❤️
@@racheltalbott thank you! I'll have a look xx
Hi Rachel, it that the New Shark Steamer ? Glad you're feeling better 🤗
It’s the same one I had before, I just bought a new one after moving here.
@@racheltalbott hi, ohhhh, okay. You bought the same one you had before, (same model)? I'm gonna buy what you have..it's looks like it really cleans well....
@@dawnnash5301 yup. It’s amazing. I think all of the shark steam cleaners are supposed to be great!
@@racheltalbottI'm def gonna get it !!! It looks like it really cleans those floors well and I have wooden floors.. 😀
👍
Did you know that the ads on your videos cover up the closed captioning? That's frustrating for those who need accessibility.
Do you mean the products that pop up during the video? I was experimenting with those today. I might be able to change the placement of those. I will look into this. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
@@racheltalbott ya Rachel.. Just a suggestion.. Earlier the products would appear and leave which is good.. We would know that the links are available... Now its just stuck on the screen / on the video and it covers up a lot of the video and obstructs the video.. We don't need them pinned I suppose :)
@@kavyaprahlad ahh gotcha. Ok. That makes sense. I will adjust
@@racheltalbott yes. Thank you so much for listening to your followers.
I cannot believe how big your sons are getting 😢 time really does go by too fast
Your hubby used to do alot more before, notice you doing it all now😢
No. Not at all. He was filming this video haha

Calm down. People can watch what they want.
lol wut
What do you think you're watching now? This is literally reality TV. You should probably turn this off too.
