I must compliment. You are the first homemaker your age group that actually topped off your strawberries correctly. Every other one I see cut the whole top off taking good strawberry meat to the garbage. Your pies look fabulous❣️
That front page ? Thumbnail ? Is the prettiest I have ever seen 😊😊
Thumbnail, yes! And thankyou! I'm known to spend hours on my thumbnails for better or worse.
Agree 🍓 ❤😊so cute!!
You and your friends always have the best parties.
Oh my gosh miler in the background saying “mom- happy?” Is just ADORABLE Megan! Your such a good mother❤
Whenever I make jam, especially when I can it, if it sets well it's jam. If it sets medium it's pie filling if it's not set well I use it for ice cream topping. For years my family thought it was 3 different recipes. It all still tastes great. I find that the more relaxed I am about it all the more fun it is to do. It's always a hit anyways.
Hey, you know what? Store bought jam has just as much sugar (if not more), but lots of other very questionable ingredients too! I love making jam❤
That's right! That's what my mom says!
In the UK all ingredients have to be listed and so you can see what it contains - store bought jam only usually differs as they use pectin to make the jam set. A way to avoid the use of pectin is to use slightly under ripe fruit as they contain more natural pecin!
A moms only pool day sounds amazing because you never get to enjoy it while watching littles and keeping them safe. We live in AZ, and I told my hubby that next time we hire a sitter we should just go over to our HOA pool by ourselves.
I love walking around and looking at houses with my baby too. The new housing developments are my favorite
Loved this! Picking strawberries is so much fun! Spring/Summer is my favorite season.
I was watching this video last night (6/13) just before 10 pm and halfway through my water EXPLODED! I had baby number 4, a boy at 11am on June 14th! My children are girl (6) boy, (4 - almost 5) boy, (3) and now another boy to join the crew!
I have no clue if you'll see this, Megan, but how fun to see how similar our little families are!
Great video!
Congratulations to you ❤
Congratulations ❤
Greetings from the middle of Nebraska! You girls sure do know how to throw a party! I love that you were able to get away and somewhat relax...you deserve it!! The NY jersey outfit is darling!! I hope Josh appreciated your support!! The strawberry picking and all your recipes look amazing!! You are such a blessing for your family!!! God bless al of you!!!
I'm about halfway through reading Annie's Day of Light and want to thank you for recommending it -- it's such a great story and gives such a window into Mennonite life in the first half of the 20th century. :) Blessings on your week!
Love love love going to the Amish bulk stores. Ive not been to that particular store but it will be a perfect stop for us when we're in town
I had to watch this one twice 😀 because it was just that good! I love that you and your friends make intentional plans to celebrate each other 💕
What a beautiful pool party setting!
Loved this. Great drink ideas! I know we don't see everything, but you seem so organized! That's something I'm working on. As a homeschooling mom of 4 I could definitely be more organized!
Wow, what a beautiful set up for the 30th birthday party. How fun
I love how whenever Evonnie makes a friend, they hold hands, adorbs!! 🥰
Megan, the pretend drive up window scene was so adorable. You're so creative :)
Enjoyed strawberry day. The pie looked so good!!
Loved seeing the Amish bulk food store! The kids looked so happy to get their drinks! All the strawberry things looked amazing. I have really loved the Walmart delivery service if you arent wanting to get out. Looks like you are all having a great summer.
I should maybe try it!
I love that your community or church or whatever does baseball❤. Y'all are so lucky to live in a place that isn't too big and you get lost in the crowd.
Megan I always enjoy watching your videos. You’re so inspiring☺️
I love strawberries and all the recipes look/sound so amazing🍓🥧 the pool party and all the decor looked so cute and fun!🍍🥥🏖️🌺
One of your best videos, thanks for the ride, it was awesome
You are the ‘hostess with the mostest’! So creative. Vonnie is the best big sister! Love your ‘feelings’ chart. Makes us all stop and think..Great mama! 🍓🍹
I find your videos to be so peaceful
Yay excited for the summer videos! ☺️☀️
This was a beautiful video! My kids just finished their baseball/softball season....I love going to games too!! Your outfit was cute! 💐
Love this video it was so cute the food the drinks the pool party. Everything looks so good. I love those Amish stores love watching your family. See you in the next video. Have a blessed Thursday night.❤❤❤
Was waiting for your new video! I’ve been a follower for five years now ❤ love your videos and you inspire me to be a better mom!
Every Thursday!!!
Absolutely killed the thumbnail. So pretty!🎉
Thanks for all the recipes and links!
I love chatty videos from you!! I am just as chatty and particular and it just makes me smile :) I feel like I’m right there in the room with you as you chat about random things. So fun 💚
Beautiful video Megan ❤ Super cute pool party ideas! And RED is your color girl! I love your pool party dress!
I also make the strawberry freezer jam. Yesterday, I ordered the book you suggested...and it arrived TODAY! Looking forward to starting it soon!
I think that red colour looks so good on you Megan! ❤
Megan, thanks for sharing these places! My grandparents took me to all of those places when I was little and it brings back great memories
Great video!! And the kiddos are so adorable! And that strawberry pie Yummy👏🥰
That Nutella frappe looks AMAZING! You and your friends sure do spoil one another (in a good way) at your get-togethers! It seems like you all have such a great time and put so much work and thought into the decor and the food!
Using a baby carrier on your back (baby faces back) is such a life changer when u have many kids. It feels like a backpack and the babies are often (not always of course) happy there when they aren't playing on their blanket. I wouldn't have survived my 4 kids without.
Love strawberry season! Your pies look delicious! I grew up eating strawberry pies, but my husband and kids aren't fans, so I rarely make them. They do love a good fruit pizza with lots of fresh strawberries though! (I have one chilling in the fridge) 😋
To carry your drinks....in the grocery store they have cardboard wine and ? Maybe beer holders. When I buy Seltzer water, i put them IN in the free cardboard things with a handle and they ring it out. Then I reuse the cardboard thing for all my drinks, spraypaints, shampoos, etc.
Another great vlog! That pool party set up was stunning!
So many pretty strawberries! I was supposed to go strawberry picking last week but the place cancelled because they weren't ripe yet! I am glad that they were ripe where you went picking!
Gotta love watching those ball games. Those are fun. I used to watch my brothers and my dad in their softball leagues (and I played softball myself).
Moms only pool party sounds great! I hope your friend has a great 30th birthday. I used to wear headbands like you are wearing here as my "headcovering" for a few years before I decided my long hair was my covering. Love how yours looks! Pretty!
hey girl- loved the video!😁 yummy jam🍓 always enjoy seeing the kiddos😊 y'all have a blessed weekend🥰
Hanks for sharing your family, I love watching ❤
Wow that pool party looked amazing 😊.
I loved I mean LOVED your thumbnail for this video. Idk it’s just so cute!!
The pie looks yummy! I make strawberry pizza when strawberries are in season. It is sooooo good! Thank you for the video! God bless!
Loved this fun summer video!
I don't love coconut water either, but I haven't been drinking nearly enough water lately and started topping my big "mom travel cup" (about the last 1/4) with Target's brand coconut water. It's been really pretty good watered down like that and it's got me drinking more water.
I got "Hope's Table" last month as I had heard you and Lynette Yoder recommend it. We have made many of the recipes and have LOVED all of them so far! Thank you for recommending so many lovely resources for us homemakers!
Every time I watch your videos, I wanted to come back to Lancaster!! It one of our favorite places to be!
Seeing Josh take the rest of the pie to eat out of the tin reminds me of my grandpa. On Thanksgiving, my grandma would make him a whole pumpkin pie for himself. She served it whole in the tin. She made a second pie for the rest of us. He would eat the whole pie in one sitting (after eating his Thanksgiving dinner!)
haha
Emotions for strawberry season😅❤HAPPY.
Homemade freezer jam is da bomb!!!
I made raspberry jam. Talk about drooling.
Jam filled muffins!!
I made the Kale salad and it was a huge hit! Even with those who don't traditionally like Kale.
I love your bedroom window coverings!
I’m excited to try your spicy chicken tenders recipe! Thank you!
I use the same recipe and I always triple or quadruple the recipe and it always turns out great for me! I probably make strawberry jam two or three times a year but I usually use frozen storebought strawberries because I don't currently have enough strawberry plants of my own. It works great!
Fun to watch!
I really love your colorful thumbnail in this one!
Loved this one ❤😊
I love Wendy's breakfast. Swiss cheese with an egg and bacon on a croissant. Really good sauce. Highly recommend it. Get the potato things too. I still have "Hope's Table". It's really nice, where I live there's an outreach church that comes here. It's really nice.
i used to make jam the old fashioned way. fruit, sugar and cook it down 'til it's the right consistency. it was so delicious!
That is making jam - what Megan has made is not jam, more like a fruit puree. Lemon juice helps with the setting, no need for pectin.
Hi Megan gosh I remember the strawberry pie last year while Josh was painting what a difference a year makes. Pool party looked amazing how lovely for your friend I love the way you all take food flowers and drinks. Although we tend to say Jam or preserve in UK the fact you blend your fruit does make it a jelly, we leave our strawberries chopped. I just love the tunnel bridge you drive through it reminds me of US movies it’s so quaint. Have a great weekend xxxxxx
Megan, I just found your channel a few weeks ago and I’m so inspired by your beautiful homemaking skills and creativity on your channel! You have such a gift! I’ve been trying to be more intentional to live as my grandparents did (in small doses) and I also love your faith content as a Christian myself!
I;m exhausted from watching you! Loved everything. The girl's table setting at the end was so beautiful.
What a fun idea, mommy pool party!
Thank you for taking me back to the most wonderful holiday I have ever had. Back to Bird in hand and all the sights of Lancaster County. Twenty years ago I had the holiday of a lifetime. We are from Scotland, so this is a part of US very few from my country visit. Many thanks again for this wonderful memory ❤
Try Pamonas Pectin! Game changer! Very forgiving. No sugar needed to set up. And you can buy in bulk.
I love summer! Looks like lots of fun in your family.
Our friend from church made us fresh strawberry jam Sunday ❤
Fabulous video, brilliant fun times in the sun with precious friends and phenomenal food & drinks that are made from scratch 👏 brilliant. Hope your sil had a Wonderful birthday. 🎉
I just ordered your book. I'm looking forward to reading it. I will not arrive until June 27th.
Jam is always fun to make. I enjoy making an apple and strawberry jam as it's less sugar and doesn't require a jam setta.
Love your content😊
My favorite RUclipsr Megan Joy watching your videos strawberry jam looks delicious. Have a great week. See you next Thursday. God bless thank you for always sharing Megan.❤❤❤❤❤❤
We're already eating it! So good, hopefully 3 batches lasts us the year this time.
Another fun video! Thanka for sharing.
The party table was very pretty
Great video today!!! Your children are just precious and I love watching your Lancaster County adventures. I agree coconut water is awful but I have myself convinced that it’s better when it’s fresh from the coconut. I’ve had fresh coconut water and I don’t remember hating it.
Fresh is very good!
I think it's definitely different.
I did especially enjoy this video and may I say with a very complimentary tone “you Mennonite gals can sure be ‘bougie’ “
Teach kids where food comes from. Go visit a local farm. Food comes from farmers wearing overalls who believe in God not from a laboratory with lab workers wearing moon suits. Enjoy real food! 🍓👩🌾👨🌾
I was reading recently how some of my great uncles were notorious butchers in the area. It really is good to see where food comes from and to respect all the hard work and sacrifice that goes into it.
Oh, you have to see her old videos, she grew up on a farm (like me) and they go there because they live close.😊
@@MeganFoxUnlockedSo very interesting! It's a way of life and of growing up for some but completely foreign to others!
ALSO....
Megan, off topic here but do you know how your aunt got that thumbprint painting/picture done? That is so cool and I'd love you know some info if at all possible, so I too could get one done of a loved one's thumbprint!
The music is so perfect.
I always wonder what we are supposed to use sugarcane for 😅 Why jam, of course 😅
Hi, I enjoy your videos. I love the Bird in Hand Supply store. They have great prices. I wanted to try the new coffee shop, but it was not open in November. When I come down in August I will have to try it.
I love love love this. All of it. Makes me question why I'm working a full time job at a computer haha. Lucky Megan!
Wow! It seems high there, in Wisconsin I think it was 1.75 a pound last year... Our neighbor brought us a couple quarts for free yesterday and I am looking forward to picking a punch to freeze!
SO interesting to hear! I kinda think my area is someone it the middle range on strawberry pricing.
Megan....YOU are a Wonderful MOMMY !!!!
You look gorgeous in red!!!! You need to wear that color more often!!
Just bought Hope’s Table while in Cocalico last week when we visited Lancaster. So far I love it! It’s a great book❤ Can you link your pebble ice maker?
Hooray for Thursday’s with Megan!!!!!! I love your summer🍓 videos especially! I get so excited for a new video each week thanks for always inspiring me💕💕💕
This video is definitely a vibe! Bring on summer!
Megan quick question I’m looking for a Modest swimsuit recommendation can you recommend one?
You should try the elderflower suryp from Ikea with strawberries in a drink! Or pair them with lime and basil 😁
Hi Megan, im from there but now live in desert of Az❤ ! Love your channel
Summer fun!
Lotus is the absolute best !!! You can buy your own lotus syrups and make it w sparking water and flavors
I would like the whipped topping recipe. Looks yummy
I grew up calling it Jam 😊❤
Im originally from PA though so maybe thar is why.
I love preserves the most though!
Nice video! 🎉❤
You are so lovely family. God bless you.
The jam looked delicious. I have an almost 7 month old. It does seem like last june was ions ago. This video seems different. I have just been watching shorts but i enjoyed it.
Finally someone else who doesn’t enjoy coconut water 🥴 yet I enjoy coconut in things….. we were a soccer family. Pack up everything and everyone. Meet up with my cousin and her children. Great family time. Sons are adults and they still play with their dad each Friday
I was remembering THAT strawberry pie a year ago.😂
That was so cute how you had the kids pretend your car window was the drive through! It’s little things like that which make a childhood wonderful and magical!
