Idea to help with the wet sand issue: Having grown up in CA, I can empathize with those who can't stand the feeling of wet sand under their swim suits. But there is a simple solution - baby powder or baby cornstarch. While in the restroom, just take the time to put baby powder on in those areas and it will immediately dry the sand and make it fall off. Great to do with everyone's feet before getting back in the car after being on the beach too. Blessings, Janell
Papaya is great for digestion. When we had tummy aches as kids, our mom would give us a papaya tablet. Always worked. I still use them as an adult.
We moved into our new home almost 2 weeks ago, and at our age (61 & 65), it was tough. EVERYTHING hurts! LOL Thankfully we had packers and movers, BUT we still had a lot to do. I suffer from fibromyalgia, so I’ve been having hip pain. Everything is FINALLY clean and organized, so all that’s left, is hanging pictures. As tired as we are, we’re so thankful to live near our 2 sons and grandson. Keep up the great work Amy and Greg, and rest when you can!❤️❤️❤️
Jayden is going to be such an amazing addition to the working class and all around great person ❤ she's so amazing and multi-talented!❤
So glad you all had a fantastic Florida 4th of July!!! 🎉❤🎉❤
Amy, I’ve had my herbs and spices on the back of my cooker, near heat for years. I’ve been married for nearly 40 years and they’ve NEVER been ruined.
Amy just commenting before you get out of the kitchen,you should buy some under counter lighting and it makes a huge difference. I have wonderful lighting overhead but off to the side is dark. Just saying
Love mine
Yes, it helps so much!
Any recommendations? Great idea
I agree. Under counter lights have helped HUGE in my small kitchen.
Good advice!
You guys are a hoot and a holler Love the hunt for the fireworks. Can’t wait to see you get all the organizers done. I love organizing.
Amy , your handling this kitchen storage like a champ. I did not realize how big your last home was. I would be crying or buys storage cabinets. You are showing others Love by being the example of '" I can do all things through Christ whom gives me strength" Every thing looks great. Can't wait for the painting to begin✝ 💖
You can get the film sheet you cut yourself frosting patterns to put on your Kitchen windows it let the light come in but not the glare of the sun.
Being in Florida don't forget to water your fruit trees daily. Your home is beautiful!!!
Love what you did with your spices! I love the chemistry you and your husband have together. We have been seeing so much more of him in Florida. We spent the fourth in our pool and just watch our community fireworks. It is always great!
Good morning Amy
What a fun 4th day with your family. When you have nothing planned all of a sudden you can make the best day ever.
You had it all covered from food to fireworks.
I’m glad I / we got to share in it.
Thanks a million.
Have a beautiful and blessed day……great job with spices too😊😊😊😊
Such a fun 4th of July! Loved watching y’all having such great family time! Well, the mango didn’t go over well and I don’t really have a suggestion! Lol! I do want to say the organization plan was fantastic but I personally would not put my spices on the back of the stove several reasons heat and life of spices, but the containers will get messy and require a lot of upkeep… grease and steam makes a lot of upkeep. This is only my opinion because I have tried and it didn’t work for me. But I’m not saying it will not work in your home. Amy you are so blessed to have such a wonderful family. Also Greg is an amazing husband and father! Y’all are perfect for one another. You complement each other! Everything is really coming along really great and you have accomplished a lot. You are definitely getting there!Happy 4th to you and family!
My son was born on July 4th. We have always gone to the beach and vacationed and celebrated his birthday during that time. Yes! It was crowded! But we loved watching the fireworks on the beach. We just rode the golf cart back to where we we’re staying. We always made it a big deal because it was his birthday. I really enjoyed watching your family have fun together. I think you all are awesome parents! ❤️🎉
Your neighbors did a great job with the fireworks which made it festive and easy for the neighborhood. A great ending to a wonderful day of celebration.
It’s an Indian mango tree, still too small yet to grow mango though. Once it gets taller, it will start flowering then producing mangoes. Water it daily though.
A recipe from my aunt: Freeze your fruit (soft fruits work best) and blend one or more together- papaya, guava, mangoes, banana, pineapple, peaches, etc and then blend with just a little canned coconut milk to make a slushy treat.
Maybe your kids would like the papaya blended in with a little bit of other fruit and the coconut milk.
We may try this thank you
You might consider lemon, lime and grapefruit trees. The blossoms smell great too!
Yay! You found the utility knife! 🎉
I already watched your vlog, Amy. I hope you had your 1st "July 4" in Florida. I need to go back and watch your videos about moving from North Carolina to Florida. I moved from North Carolina to Georgia in 1990. I went to Florida to explore Walt Disney World in 2010. Within this past July 4 and a tad afterwards, I watched the movies, had a barbecue and watched 3 DVR'd fireworks' specials. I had hotdogs and cheeseburgers with mustard and ketchup. I also had grilled chicken and baked beans. I ate the last of the small "July 4" cupcakes.
Well putting childs issues ahead of your own is the greatest sign of caring i think because at the end of the day no firework display is worth it not been enjoyed at as jaden and broklyn proved more ways then one to enjoy it🎉🎉. Also somestimes i think i need to get a bike lock for the scissors😂 have blessed day all
The mango tree has probably already finished for the year. Ours is and it’s July 11th Welcome to Florida!! We live between Tampa and Orlando. A great state to live in! 🥰🙏💕
I appreciate this very much thank you ☺️
Could you take the papaya to church to share with others? Or put them in a blessing box, if you have them in your area. @amymaryon
You and your husband are hilarious together getting lost that's the sort of thing we do . When we just moved up to our house we ran right past the opening and had turn and go back.We used to get lost all the time my son used to say where are we going we said just a detour and he said nope we are lost it was so funny we got there in the end love your channel.❤ From Scotland
Oh my Goodness Brown Sugar on Sauerkraut. It sounds weirdly amazing, can’t wait to try it. Thank Greg’s Boss
Love that don’t feel
Guilty, do what you can do ❤
That was fun to watch. Thanks for sharing your day with us. It’s nice to see your family have fun. Happy 4th of July. 🎉
The heat and salt will cause you to have inflammation which will cause numb feeling .Nice spice organization! I hope you all have a great week.
Glad to see y’all having fun. Happy 4th.
We have kept two pairs of scissors in the kitchen for many years! 😂 It was such a battle when we had six kids at home! I could never find my scissors!
Morning 3am here and I love watching before I go to bed. Thanks for sharing!!!
Thanks for watching.. good night
I purchased a set of borosillic glass containers with the bamboo lids about a yewr ago. They were origionally intended for my spices but i have different set of glass spice jars in use, pluss the Lord gave me a wooden spice turntable so i decided to use the borosillic glass containers with bamboo lids for my broad range of fruit teas, floral teas, vanilla powder, caramel powder & hot chocolate powder & a range of coffees. It's good to see you & Gregg working as a team on YT. May you all be blessed.
Hi Amy, Papaya is delicious if you blend it up for smoothies mixed with other fruit and also dried Papaya is very good. It is a slimy fruit but used blended or dried it is delicious.
Green arrow at the turn protects the driver turning, the solid green light means you can go but you are taking a risk of getting hit so be careful, because oncoming traffic is still going and not stopped.
my husband feels numb and sore everyday, he is a trailor mechanic so he has a very physical job. But my husband also bike rides so he doesnt feel it so much. Gotta keep active. As you get older its important to stay active and healthy. Great video Amy and Greg.
Jayden is awesome! So helpful in so many ways!
Sprinkle salt and chile and lime or lemon juice on the papaya. I bet your kids would love it. There's a condiment called Tajin. I wonder if you have it in Florida? Really, it's just salt, lime and chile powder. It's wonderful on watermelon, too. Papaya is not my favorite (it does smell weird) but seriously, it is so good for the digestion. I ate slice of it every day when I was pregnant with #3 and it made a HUGE difference in just how icky my gut felt. I would do it again, for the relief. Tell your girls; it may come in handy one day. A couple days ago I was trying to dry a load of towels in my Samsung dryer. I thought of you as I waited and waited and waited....😅
Glad you like there .in Florida . like your home
Some spice racks that are magnetic to go on your freezer for some.
I like going to Ollie’s to get the big spices and just use those containers
LOVE, LOVE, my under the counter lights. Most of the time, that is all we will turn on. Makes a great back drop.
Hi Amy, Greg and family. So good to see some of the kids. I have missed them. Jaden is a gem!
Beautiful fireworks. Love the Maryons.
We had a great time.
I have the same clear containers with the wood lids and I keep them on the top of the stove. All is well
The spice drawer looks great! ❤
Happy 4th 🎉🎉 Have a wonderful week 🪻🌷🪻
Hi Amy, to help with the papaya, I cut them in half, scoop out the seeds and then squeeze some fresh lime juice and eat with a spoon.
I'll have to try again
I wish you were my neighbor you're so motivating and I would have you come over and energized and motivate me with my spices in my organizing and then I'd have you pray over me and I'd go to it thank you for all your encouragement and all your sharing
If a fire ever broke out in your home, it is safer for the kids to sleep with their doors closed. It may be wisest to have sound machines in each of their rooms instead of a shared one. Though everyone thinks it won't happen to them, it happens every day. And the safer you can keep your family the better.
Hi Amy , papaya is great to aid digestion and you might like it better if you dehydrated it , I don’t have a tree in my yard so I buy some fresh but mostly dried then I make a nice trail mix with it
I am from Sarasota, alot of people take their boats in the bay to watch the fireworks! It is so cool! You will love it!
We wanted to but are so unfamiliar with where to go ..next year
Muriatic Acid is what you use on pool to remove the calcium build up!
We tried that
@@amymaryon bummer…. I had horrible build up and it took it right off! Was it in liquid form? And a wire brush?
Yes and we did ..i think he is going to replace them
It's probably an old thick build up. Homeowners rarely have the patience to do the acid treatment over and over again to get the layers of old scale off. If it's fresh scale, cleaning it with acid, would bubble up, dissolving the calcium. Similar to what happens when you use hydrogen peroxide on a wound.
Hey Amy. You can roast papaya, Martha Stewart recipe. If you google there are health benefits. Also could be added to tropical smoothie with pineapple, mango etc. You could prepare and freeze extrafor the winter. The roasted recipe sounds interesting. From Toronto with love ❤
That does look like the leaves of a mango tree but they take a very long time to produce fruit and that looks to be a fairly young tree. I would suggest giving it some fertilizer or food for fruit trees.
I also wanted to make a note that it’s too bad that no one liked the papaya because it’s excellent to help with digestion issues. The enzymes in it help break down foods that are dense and hard to break down.
Good morning Amy.. Great vlog as always. Loved it. In your spare time my Mom and I need you to come and get us organized. Lol. Have a great day. ❤❤❤ Carolyn and Jackie.
In PA we all put apple cider vinegar and brown sugar on our kraut… amazing on hotdogs!!
Our son-in-law accepted a job in Florida last summer. They, with their 3 daughters moved to Winter Haven, and we went for the 4th of July. July 3rd there was a waterski show and fireworks. It was great and everyone seemed to be having a good time. It seems that there's so much free things for kids to do. Oh, and we're from Louisiana and while it was hot in Florida, it wasn't sweltering like Louisiana.
Great video!! Love your new home it is so beautiful 🇺🇸🌻
Thai Green Papaya salad is delicious.
The moisture would also get into your spice jars while you are cooking if you store at the back of your hob! Spices look great in your draw😉
A suggestion Amy, in your spice drawer put them in alphabetical order😊
I like the way you did your seasonings. Some I use often but I still like them all put away
I'd buy the white labels and stick them on the other side😊
I was told that sometimes trees only flower and fruit every other year. Also sometimes you need a male and a female tree. And sometimes you need to self-pollinate if they don't get pollinated by the bees
Good morning from the Nederlands...I love your video's.
Found 70 is lowest to run air to get best results. Seems to feel cooler and less stress on the unit. Also heard run unit no more than a 20 degree outside difference
I lived in the Philippines for a year...and we ate our papayas once they turned yellow. They were much larger, too.
Publix is my favorite to shop at especially for their buy 1 get 1 free deals. 😊 Hope you have a wonderful week Amy. ❤❤❤❤
If you want to put your spices on the back of your stove just do it.
It’s an Indian Mango tree. Still too small yet ( recently planted perhaps) . Keep watering daily. Once it gets taller and starts flowering, it will produce mangoes. I have a mango tree in my garden. Fruit trees and all are Gods great blessings :) take care.
Oh thank you for this ☺️
Amy, the one thing I could never handle during 4th of July was the traffic so we we very lucky to move to a place where we could actually enjoy fireworks right in our front yard. ( we still lived in the country but we could see our town’s fireworks from our lawn) so it was wonderful) The kids loved it too
The scavenger hunt was a great idea!
I love your Mom coffee mug. Happy 4th to yall!
The complete season is like the all season . Some have labels that just say all season
Hi Amy, spice jars are amazing! When you refill them, tap the base of the jar against the counter and it will compress for you so you won’t need a knife :]
Mango trees grow really huge and that’s when they flower then bear fruit
Good morning! It’s great to see you getting settled and exploring.
Good morning
I love the outfits you wear...they look so cool!
Yes I’m sore as well , starting a health journey and exercising. Y’all are color on a matching scale .
Oh Greg. Lol. I just know this whole pool will be different in a few months. Good going! Nice to see him have a project he seems to enjoy. More than mowing.
Looks hot down there guys
so fun thanx for always sharing , good night
My spices and baking spices like cocoa, i put them in half pint mason jars with the screw on lids. It works great.
I just ordered a commerical hot dog roller cannot wait for it to come in
The hanging baskets on the inside of your pantry door that I mentioned yesterday, would be great for your seasonings that you don’t use as often or your bigger containers plus your extras!
Yes i may do that. Thank you
Squeezing lemon on your papaya brings out the sweetness
For the Papaya: cut in half, scoop the seeds out and drizzle some lemon juice on top. Then eat with a spoon. And it must be ripe, a little bit soft.
Papaya is really good for heartburn!
Chilli Spice Mix, Fajitas Spice Mix, your Salad Dressing Mix, Indian Spice Mix like Garam Marcela. I try and make all my spice mixes because they use up my spices much faster. Yes recessed lighting is no good for under cabinet seeing. I was so surprised how big your great room is. Hugh house and beautiful.😊
Put lime on the papaya 😍😍👌🏻
I really like seeing your iPad clock on the counter. For me it's enjoyable seeing the time pass as you speed up the video when you are doing things. To see how long it's actually taking you to do something. HAHAHAHA, I know that is totally weird.
For the papaya, it's a natural stomach acid reducer and helps greatly for relieving heartburn. You can also freeze it and put it in smoothies if you don't like the texture of eating it fresh.
I understand completely about the time things ..we will have to try that thank you
Papaya smoothie is good. Papaya, evaporated milk or water, and sugar to taste.
I'm opposite of everyone, I keep my spices in a cabinet next to the stove, 🤷🏻♀️ but I use them on a daily so they are not there long enough to get bad from heat, which I see you use yours on a daily too, so that's my opinion on yours if you want to keep them on the stove I don't see a problem 🤷🏻♀️
Mine are in the cupboard next to the cooker too! I find it much easier but then I don’t have many drawers in My kitchen, I have cutlery in one, pans in another and towels and aprons in the last.
Hi Amy, yay you tried papaya. Those you cut aren’t fully ripe yet. Place in brown paper bag to help them along. Once ripe the best eaten with a spoon- straight out of the skin once you scoop the seeds out.
That tree looks more like avocado. Can you take a closer picture/look of the leaves?
Amazon has a spice rack that has magnets, I put mine on the side of my fridge and love it
PS You've done a lovely piece of work with your new spice set layout.
You all need to get Florida Resident Busch Gardens year around tickets. The price for the year for Florida residents is the price for visitors one time visit. Also, check out the Barnum Bailey Circus Mansion and Museum down in Sarasota. By the way U turns are legal in Florida unless otherwise designated
Thank you 😊
My boys have autism and my youngest daughter has sensory modulation disorder. We always have to think hard about what we are gonna do. We do a lot more in the spring and fall/winter and way less in summer cause they hate the heat and my daughter gets car sick and the heat makes it worse. You just do what ya gotta do and like you say we just do what works for our family.
FYI, squeeze a bit of lemon or lime on your papaya, also another user friendly option is to mix into a tropical fruit salad your kids might like it that way better.
This is hilarious, we recently moved and it's taken us three weeks to figure out
The roads😁😂
Amy, I’ve kept my spices by the stove for 30 years and have never had a problem. The only thing you want to keep away from the stove is oils.
Good morning sweet lady. hope your day is wonderful...God bless the family.....Vickie
Thank you Vickie 😊
Once again I reached the end of your video and asked my husband if we could move to Florida!!!
Lol it's nice here.
Green arrow you are good to go. Green light , no arrow you yield to on coming traffic. Oh my gosh kudos to Jayden and Brooklyn that was such a good and fun idea. Wow making incredible new memories 🎇🎆🎇!
