Re-watching, re-listening, re-reading are comfort habits. There's no anxiety of 'what's going to happen next?' or 'Am I going to come across a trigger?' Some media doesn't do well on repeat but some do very well.
For some perhaps, and they should get help. For the rest of us it's just because we enjoy a particular thing a lot.
I feel this. There was a time where I wouls watch Ever After on repeat 😅
Yeah I pretty much watched nothing new for the whole lockdown, I only wanted stuff I knew. Re-runs are the comfort food of television.
So very true, I have my set movies and books that I watch or read again, specially the ones that come in book sets, Mom and I would go back to the very beginning of the book series each time a new one came out for the set back then book series took time a new one would come out at least every 18 months, as soon as we spotted the hardcover books on the shelf we would dig out the books for that set because we knew that by the time we got to the last one it would be out in paperback lol. It never fails me re-reading the books even though I know them inside and out, I sometimes get the order mixed up or I read something and it surprise me that I had totally forgotten a section.
For movies your eyes can only register so much of the onscreen information and so when watching you spot something that you missed before, like an plain flying across in the background when the story is set back in the early Romain times 😹😹😹or seeing a medieval soldier wearing a Rolex 😹😹😹 and another who has a pair of ray-bans tucked into the front of his romain soldier uniform 😹😹
I love playing movies when sewing or working on some project because having watched before I can just listen until the really good parts come along and you just have to watch it.
"Every day is a lesson and everyone you believe to be more normal than you, is a teacher" definitely hit home for me. Realized in the last few years that I am, indeed, autistic, and that I have actually been imitating others like crazy my entire life and "normal" people DO NOT NEED to do that... for so long (like basically everyone else autistic) I thought that others just struggled along better than I did. I was just bad at it.
“I thought that others just struggled along better than I did. I was just bad at it.” ❤ These are all my teenage depressions. (I didn’t know then that it was depression, nor that I’m autistic as well.)
I came to find the "yes, I too am autistic" comments and I was not disappointed!
-also autistic
-also the least normal sibling
As a neurodivergent (ADHD) I spend much of my time masking. I like it much more when I'm around other neurodivergents and I don't have to mask. Luckily for me most of my coworkers are also neurodivergent.
Someone who loves making all the fancy food but not having the parties is called...a caterer!! 😁
I said the same thing, in my head. Lol
Hi, I think I'll pinch that if that's okay. It's that good. Yours, Ann
I was coming here to say that. 😊
As a person who has never felt normal and loves re-watching, re-reading, and re- listening, I feel so understood! Also, I love pavlova! It is fun and easy to make.
👍
The Aussie in me is reminding you that WE invented it ;) (and in case anyone reading doesn't know, this is a hotly contested topic between the kiwis and the Aussies and no neither of us will concede). Such a fun desert and so easy! It's great to make if you've used a lot of egg yolks in pasty and just have the whites left over
Kiwi here....come on now, you know we invented it ❤
"Short story even shorter: I was watching Great British Bake Off yesterday, they made a Pavlova, and I was like mmmmmmmmmhmm. It feels like time to do that again." Soooo...you could say it was a *Pavlovian* response. 😆
Okay this comment is not getting enough love. 😅
😂😂😂
OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHH!!!!! 👏👏👏
"All my things have worn off, but I think that's a fourth a cup." I have no idea why this particular sentence made me laugh so hard, but I really needed it. Thank you for that, truly
Me too. Jello yuk!
I find it weird that Americans say "a fourth" of something, instead of a quarter. Each to their own. No shade here.
@robynw6307 As an American, I find it annoying that other Americans do this too!!
I liked your Deep Thoughts ™ segment. As someone coming from the "former gifted kid diagnosed with ADHD at 30-something" camp, I spent my life trying to be like everyone else and it left me with no real understanding of my own brain or coping strategies to function alongside all those "normal" people. It's exhausting. I've been trying to unlearn those rules about life and watching your videos has been a help actually! I really appreciate that you just do projects the way they make sense to you without freaking out too much about not following the "right" way.
I love to hear that!
That was an absolute delight to watch. I'm from Australia and we consider pavlova our national dish but I think that will forever be argued.
100% New Zealand 😋
Agreed. I'm Aussie too, and pavs are definitely from here. 😉
This spread is literally so beautiful and whimsical with the dishware! It reminds me of a tea party! 🥰
As an avid watcher of yours from New Zealand this was such a cool video! A Kiwi lady came up with the dessert and named it Pavlova because Anna Pavlova was visiting the country at the time!
You should definitely come visit NZ!
Obviously, us Aussies will fight you on this. But that's our jam.
You can have the jam. We created pavlova.
@@mamaspatch ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Pavlova is what I make every Christmas, so yum. Christmas in Australia is hot so pavlova is perfect dessert.
I also "make" pavlova (covering the pre-made base in whipped cream, strawberries and a crushed up Flake counts, right?)
@@petabaigent - I will allow it 😂 the crushed Flake saved you - brilliant idea
@@petabaigentyes. Honestly, there’s so much else to do and the Woolies/Coles ones are pretty dang good so why not!
I once made a pavlova bar instead of cake for my birthday. A lot of fresh fruit, cream pat, whipped cream and grated dark chocolate. Some of my relatives had never seen a pavlova before, but it didn't stop them from eating 2-4 pavlovas each.
That sounds amazing!
Life lessons and baking with Charlie. ❤
As a lifelong student of the How To Be Normal school, this was very relatable.
I love rewatching/rereading/relistening(?) to my favorites.
My grandmother used to make a similar green Jello salad (so gross) but Jello in general doesn't give me texture issues.
That looks delish! FYI All eggs can be set on the counter for a few weeks IF the natural protective coating has not been washed off. Which leaves out store bought eggs. If you purchase eggs from a farm stand ask if they have been washed. If washed in water they have to be kept cold.
You can leave things on the counter as long as you don't live somewhere where it's hotter than hell 🤣
Hi, Thank you. I just learned something new. I really appreciate that.
I guess for the stores, if you don't wash the eggs the risk of deceases is to high, but if buy them off of someone who is growing their, own so to speak, you can wash them yourself before opening them? Plus you know where they come from. (And no, not from the hen, for all comedians that might read this, but I claim no copyright so feel free 🙃😉😊.) Yours, Ann
You can store washed eggs in room temperature if you turn them over every other day. I’ve never tried, though.
You can leave any eggs on the counter, washed, unwashed, they don't require refrigeration and will keep for weeks.
It's the cornstarch and a splash of vinegar that makes the inside stay marshmallowy, hope this helps, x
Yes cornflour and vinegar - but also whipping the whites in a COLD steel bowl (never plastic), and whipping the sugar until you can't feel the grains when rubbed between your index finger and thumb - it takes much much longer than you think!!
Lots of love from New Zealand ❤
And the water helps the sugar dissolve 😊
@@cheekyb71Hi, Can you do that without overwhipping the egg whites? Yours, Ann
@@annlidslot8212 absolutely you can, I've been making pavs since I was little and have never overwhipped them yet. Just make sure you're using caster sugar - smaller grains than standard white - and only add 1/4C at a time 😊
@@jessicaneal8553 don't put water in a pav! Absolutely not
I was unaware you also made cooking videos and I am SO EXCITED to have them on the rest of today!!
Aussie here and this is what we have at Christmas every year in our family. Everyone gets their own portion (either mini pav’s or a portion of a big one) and we put our own toppings on. You can also get them pre made and pre decorated from Coles and Woolies for cheap if you’re in a rush.
But nothing beats fresh cream and fresh fruit on top of your pav.
Your description of trying to learn to be normal…you could be describing me. I’m one of 9 children, homeschooled, and that was my exact experience!
OMG my family makes a version of that lime jello dish and I LOVE it! It's with sour cream instead of cottage cheese though, but really similar. It also has pecans, maraschino cherries, and pineapple. Sounds terrible but it works for some reason. We call it Holiday Salad since we just stated making it at any holiday we could. 🤣
My grandma made one with cherry jello, usually with walnuts and apples but sometimes with marashcino cherries and canned fruit salad. The other one that was actually awesome and I have made a few times is grated carrots in orange jello. I put it in a brain shaped mold once for Thanksiving potluck, my nephews thought it was awesome.
Love watching you bake. You always make it look like I could do it too. Didn't see much of your kitchen, but it seems like it's amazing. Thanks for another fun Friday! Big Hugs.
I find great comfort in rereading/rewatching/relistening everything. Drives my partner nuts.
Marscopone mixed with cream makes a good combination with lemon curd if you fancy a less sweet topping. Also, found out by accident, the base pavlovas without toppings, literally last months in an air tight container.
Pavlova is my favourite dessert because it's so versatile. A favourite variation in my home is lemon pavlova...aka upsidedown lemon meringue pie.
That looks amazing! I would totally go and try it and not chat with you or make small talk. Until I tell you it was delicious as I am heading out! :D
Lets invent a very quiet tea party ...where everyone wears headphones, sits at a table and isn't allowed to talk. Just enjoy the food and smiling at others (but only, IF they want)
Oh my goodness yes! Like those silent discos, only even better - everyone brings their book or their stitching and their favorite playlist and just sits around companioning and enjoying a lovely tea.
This is literally me watching the same thing again on repeat and then apologizing to my husband for doing so. Only to have him say he doesn't care and i can do what I want lol!
Whoa, yes please, I would like one, or two, lol. I was crocheting while watching your video today. When you said buffet, I had to stop because I didn't want to miss a thing. You made a beautiful presentation & have lovely China & crystal, which kinda surprised me for someone that hasn't selected furniture, lol. But that's ok, I get it. I'm not normal either. Weirdos & misfits unite! Ty for posting.
The china was passed down to me from the family! I've actually looked at beautiful dishes a lot in stores and rarely end up buying it, cause yeah, not very good at choosing. XD
People with anxiety tend to watch/listen to the same things over and over, because they already know what to expect. It is comforting to already know what is going to happen and not have to worry about surprises.
I haven't had pavlova in ages. I'm definitely in the mood to bake some now. 😋
Anyone else feel a summoning of That Midwestern Mom when talking about jello salads? 😂
I wasn’t sure I’d enjoy non-sewing content, but at 15:30 I’m realizing the way you create is the way you create, whether it’s cooking or sewing.
Brain ran out of words. Enjoying this. Good video. Makes me want to cook.
It was named after her tutu she wore when performing the "Dying Swan". I introduced Pavlova to Nova Scotia. Love watching you.
4:36 I am like this NOW.
Like, my babysitter as a child only had the 1977 Disney Cartoon The Rescuers on VHS tape. It was v much of its time, complete with disco-style, slap bass guitar in some of the cues
We lost touch with this baby sitter for a while but then I remembered this film and I cannot get past the opening credits without completely bawling my eyes out.
"Who Will Rescue Me" has rapidly become a song I turn to when I feel overwhelmed with adulting 😂
Puppy cleanup patrol. We have that too. Gonna make more aprons in the future? We've got a whole pile of cotton sheets we just decided to make aprons out of. Cooking, baking cleaning, gardening, art, we can have aprons for everything. Plus I'm making leather aprons out of two leather skirts I found that were missing zippers for crafting and construction.
I haven't made pavlova for years! Might need to do the "pavlova bar" idea for next D&D game day... Or maybe our orphans' Thanksgiving or something...
I've never had a pavlova and I've only heard of them through the Discworld books*, but this looks delicious! I'll have to try!
*Quote: Pavlovian response: A phenomenom discovered by the wizard Denephew Boot who by ringing a series of bells could get a dog to swallow a whole strawberry meringue
I consider myself normal to the point of being tedious. But I also enjoy watching the same content over and over again 🤷🏼♀️
This probably isn’t helpful but I think we all have things that are “comfort content”.
What an elegant presentation at the end! Pavlova is one of my favorite desserts, because it's just so versatile.
Looks delicious! I'm the same with baking, suddenly and randomly I decide I want to bake :D
You could set your desserts up to be shared with your letter carrier and the other delivery folks who visit your house! The joy of making something for a party without having to talk to people :D
Oh man, the green jello salad sounds like I thing my great aunt Edna used to make! There was like, cottage cheese and pineapple in it? I loved that stuff so much
Haha, watching you eat the lil lime jello squares made shivers run down my back! And yes, I grew up eating that lime jello/cottage cheese "salad" - -it also usually had shredded cucumber, apple and walnuts in it...
What fun! I have never been NORMAL (whatever that is!) Watching you makes me feel like there ARE other kindred spirits like myself in this crazy world. Stay just the way you are, you make lots of people so happy
Currently rewatching True Blood because I need to count every crochet stitch in my current project and need something interesting yet non-taxing to watch because my crochet needs my attention.
Your ponderings made me think of this that I read in an article earlier today:
"In my observations of the many parents and children in my life, there is the finest of lines between a “normal” child and one with some sort of diagnosis, such as “anxious” or “on the spectrum”. “If we add accumulative stress to that [quirky child], that quirk becomes problematic and may even become a disorder,”"
And it has made me ponder, what is actually normal?! Oh for a world where our girfts are celebrated and we realise that if we all come out of the same sausage machine then there will be some jobs that never get done!
Acid really doesn't affect gelatin's ability to set, but certain acidic fruits like pineapple carry enzymes that can. These enzymes, to quote the eponymous Alton Brown, "eat gelatin for lunch," breaking down the peptide chains within it and preventing it from gelling properly.
Papaya also does! It's why they can break down meat proteins and cook it without heat.
Alternately throw a work party! All the fancy fare but everyone brings their sewing or helps with a garden project. Sometimes it’s easier to fête when there’s tasks that don’t require punctilious small talk - this may be just me.
my daughter recently discovered pavlova at our local bakery and we have been talking about making our own!! Yours looks divine!!!
1. Comfort movies,shows, music, and books were my saving grace as a child.
2. I've never heard of these but they look awesome.
3. I've had to unlearn many things that I learned from the normal people in my life because they made me miserable trying to "be normal"
4. Cooking/baking for one, I feel I waste so much food!!
Well, that is just the most elegant thing I’ve ever seen. And you just a regular girl. I am very impressed.
Thank you for this tasty bit of chaos. I needed it. ❤
"Tasty chaos" describes Charlie's channel *perfectly.*
Even the not-pavlova content!
You were right about Lady Catherine de Burgh - she was talking about her niece, in the book and in the Colin Firth version of the film! I think Dame Judy improvized😊
Yaaaaas I'll claim I was just remembering the book from that one time I read it then... XD
My adult children will tell anyone that they grew up to original Fantasia, it was on repeat every day in my house, my youngest loved it. He studied classical guitar at university, so it was obviously formative.
I read, watch, and listen, to my favourites.
Pavlovas are absolutely delicious 🤤 also your dishes look beautiful in the end
This is just the best in every way. My sister's cat is named Pavlova because she is sooooo beautifully white and floofy. Normal is overrated, and I'm completely here for the kitchen-table musings. I crave novelty a bit much to have the comfort-watching thing SUPER hard (un- and/or self-diagnosed ADHD comes in all forms, dunnit? (As does diagnosed ADHD, I s'pose)), but I will gleefully admit to rewatching several of your very own yt videos as comfort watches!
Also *there is puppy screen time*.
Truly, every bit of this is great. Yay thanks!
Aaaawwwwww Pavlova is such a cute name for a cat, especially a floofy white one! I love that!
I really likeed this, you cook like my mom always did. No recipe just winging it. Stuff always turned out well for her, too. Me, I need a recipe. Watching mom make bread was both frustrating and delightful. She always made huge amounts and saved some dough to fry for us kids. We were allowed to choose if we wanted butter of to sprinkle sugar on top.Had you ever thought about catering? Then you only need to interact with the host, then book it!😊
I actually worked in catering while I was in college for a bit, and yeah, I really enjoyed getting to set up the tables so beautifully and then scurry away!
I saw your spread and thought "I want a bit of everything" and then you plated up a bit of everything. Chefs kiss!
Yes, please come visit!
Eggs are sold on the shelf, usually same aisle as the sugar 😊 depending how long you want to keep them is whether or not you put them in the fridge.
In Germany, too, eggs are sold in their "original state" (= not washed with soap or even harsher things), so they keep their natural protection againt all these bad germs and don't have to be kept cool immediately. Though: if you put your eggs in the fridge, you have to keep them there afterwards.
HD -- 80 of them.
I listen to songs on repeat, all the time, especially when I'm working on something.
WoW! Fancy!!!!
Those look so delicious! 2 of my favourite shows are GBBO and GB Sewing Bee & I 100% have watched them on repeat. haha.
"Normal" is over-rated! You do You - that's what we're here for!!
You described masking perfectly. Neurodivrgent people do it a lot. And my brain is a file cabinet also
My oldest son however his brain is more like Hermione's beaded bag.
Don't take them out of the oven right away, leave them in with the heat is turned off and the door ajar for about 2 hours or overnight to dry out. My mother used to make them in the evening and after an hour turn off the oven and leave them till morning to dry in the cooling oven! They were always perfectly dry!
I have a few series of audiobooks I revisit all the time. They reduce my stress, while still giving me a story that I know I will love. Definitely in the re-watching/listening camp.
I *believe* (could be horribly wrong) that the dessert Pavlova was invented in honour of her going to New Zealand, pretty much the same as the peach Melba was named in honour of a visit from the opera singer Nellie Melba. (Again, could be very wrong)
So many things I've never heard of before - creme pat, langoustines, pluots. But as an Aussie, pavlova has been a part of my life virtually since birth. I'm now 64. Fun video. To cut the sweetness, my family usually serves ours topped with plain whipped cream (ie no sugar or vanilla added), and fresh (unsweetened) fruit like strawberries or kiwi fruit or blueberries (or a mix - you can make some lovely patterns on the top), and sometimes a drizzle of passionfruit pulp.
I’m an aspie and idk if you are, but you are sooooo like me 🤣 I’m also English, so you might be interested to know, there’s a new series of Bake Off currently showing here. Also, my autism compels me to find out alllll the things, so I discovered that pavlova originated in Australia! Who knew? Not me anyway 🤣 I also discovered that the reason I like watching sewing videos while I sew, is because it’s about the level of socialising I can handle - I feel as if I’m doing something with someone, without actually having to have a person in my space 😂 I also wing things all the time, I’ll get a pattern and I don’t think I’ve ever not gone off piste somewhere at least, which makes me really enjoy your way of sewing. My only grumble is that you haven’t made enough sewing videos so I have to rewatch them, so chop chop young lady 😂 I simply adore the way you call it Joanne, and not Joanne’s (not sure of the spelling of that name now I’ve written it down, oh well) because that’s exactly how pedantic I am too 😅 The rewatching/re-listening of things is also an autistic trait btw. I wonder why spellcheck allows me to write rewatching, yet not relistening, how bizarre! I’d like to see you make a circular dress, I believe it can be done, and it seems just your cup of tea, with your penchant for circular items of clothing!
I'm watching the new season of GBBO and loving it (we get a new episode every Friday on Netflix here) - best time of year!!
I have been having the interacting with human beings problem as well. We have a neighbor who is a single 65-year-old man, and I mentioned to him that maybe if I cooked extra of something I could bring him over a meal sometimes. Every time that happens, I end up not doing it because I don’t want to see anybody. Luckily, I was very vague in my promise lol.
Oh my goodness, I feel this! Anytime I tell someone that I want to bake more but I don't have anyone to eat the stuff, they're like oh well just go give it to your neighbors or go to an old folk's home or to a fire station and give it away, and I'm like... yeah, but then human interaction and all that, soooooo.... nah. XD
I've noticed that if you are not like everyone else you are interesting. That should be the goal.
Good morning from New Zealand pavlova is a non-negotiable fact for Christmas lunch whose leftovers are fiercely fought over for breakfast the next day in our house
If you get chickens, then you too can store your eggs on the counter. That's what we do. They're good on the counter for about 2 months
We in Belgium and almost everywhere in Europe always use unrefrigerated eggs. I have chickens myself, and I am sometimes tempted to wash the eggs. But if you do that, they have to go into the refrigerator. You can keep unwashed eggs fresh for about 21 days outside the refrigerator or in the refrigerator. You should store washed eggs in the refrigerator because a protective layer is washed off that ensures that an egg remains fresh or not.
I love meringue. In the Netherlands where I grew up, they had hazelnut meringue, which was a really big cake that you could eat with 6 people. There were caramelized bits of hazelnut on the outside, and a coffee/hazelnut creme on the top. Delicious. Unfortunately, it is not available where I live now. But lemon meringue. Yum.
It stalls at 215 degrees bc 212 deg fahrenheit is the boiling point of water. The temp wont rise again until the entire mixture is boiling, all that time is getting enough energy into the food to get everything boiling. The temp is a bit higher bc thanks to colligative properties, the other non-water particles interfere with the state change process, raising the boiling temperature as compared to pure water. And that is from high school chem 2, not being a chemist...thats what i recall. Long story short, the long stall on temp increase is absolutely right and doesnt mean anything is wrong! Thanks for finally giving this particular chem lesson a tasty life application!
It's like a tea service. Super aesthetic! 😍
so fun!! Thanks for sharing your beautiful spread with us!
With all the chaos and hate in the news I had to take a break. I watched the new season of GBBO too and I fell in love with Saku. She is soo adorable she makes my heart happy.
Yes, she's so lovely!! This season is such a delight - bringing me joy every Friday!
OMG! That looks so good 🎉🎉! You’re an inspiration, madam, I have to say. Thank you for showing us the way.
Enjoyed this so much! Doing a hard binge on a lot of your content bc found you yesterday before going to sleep. You're such a joy! I'm enjoying it all. Thanks so much!
One of my favorite treats when I’m avoiding sweets are homemade gummy bears which are essentially lemon juice and gelatin.
Your comment about citrus impeding gelatin makes me want to jump down that rabbit hole to investigate.
I always thought Pavlova was Russian, so I learned something new! Your presentation was exquisite! 👌🏻
I enjoy your Tangent. It makes for an interesting watching.
The main difference between merangue and pavlova is that pavlova has cornflour (cornstarch for you Americans), vinegar and vanilla.
But I love the idea of a pavlova bar, that'll go on the Christmas day dessert roster! ❤
Cooking and baking without a recipe/pattern. There’s a rebellious theme going on here.😊
I sometimes make things and go bring them to my neighbors just so I won’t turn into a total recluse and hermit . Plus I also hope that there’s a fire they’ll bang on my door on the way out.
I think you should imitate those of us who pour the yolk in the other half of the shell instead of in your hand.
What you said about feeling different etc is a close match for my experience as an autistic person.
You seemed like you're having best fun in a long time. I love desserts so I'd like the baking content once in a while. But I'm curious what's your next comfy, easy dress/blouse creations will be. Gonna make pavlova roll/meringue roulade now cause that's my fav way of making it ^^
and yeah I did yawn :D
I love meringue roulade. No fresh strawberries so I will have to use jam.
That was an absolute delight to watch
Saw this on bluey and now saw your video :) now I have courage to try myself
I watch things over and over ALL.THE.TIME. I can't even count how many times I've watched all the episodes of Mythbusters from beginning to end. I've never been normal, but I was also stubborn.... so.... yeah....
HIGHLY recommend going to New Zealand. It was one of my favorite experiences!
Pavlova is lovely, but I haven't tried to make it yet. It's been on my list!
I love the idea of a pavlova bar!
This was lovely. Thank you
I love Pavlova! I first found out about it by watching Bluey with my daughter lol it’s a really easy treat and delicious
I know how to make both jellos. The "cherry" one is actually strawberry and raspberry. I make it every thanksgiving and Christmas.
Kiwi here. Loved watching u making ur pav ur nana would be proud
Looks delicious! I agree, I just want to make a couple of something, not a whole batch. I also would be doomed to eating it all myself since hubby won't eat desserts. I don't know what's wrong with him, lol.
oh wow 😊 this is such a great show 😂 we got to do this again ❤❤
My family also makes the cream cheese jello thing! I've never liked it but my sister does and still makes it every christmas
