Claire’s story about quitting being a brownie is peak perfectionist energy: having the character flaw of wanting to quit something if you don’t see yourself as having an immediate talent for it.
Yes, that was completely me. The first thing that I discovered that I was truly bad at and wasn't going to be able to become good at was volleyball. It was 7th grade. I hate volleyball. Lol.
Well, in this case proably not so bad. Once you get into the territory of sabotaging your competition or cheating, you get a problem. Or rather, as long as you want to be perfect by getting better at what you do, its fine. If you want to be perfect by winning everything, than it is unhealthy. There is a fine line between perfectionism and narcissism.
@@WorldOfSafari Being a perfectionist doesnt usually lead to actually becoming perfect though, it usually leads to not doing anything because you won't get it to be perfect (ive been putting of auditions because I didn't want to embarrass myself for not being perfect, when in reality you really can't ever be perfect) and so you shouldn't try at all. Also often gives you depression

"I don't know who took this out" - gabi please refer to the 65th episode of it's alive, where a certain lumberdad utilized said pot for "master stock".
Exactly. Everyone says Sohla was responsible for it being dirty. No Claire cleaned it and then Sohla exploded butter in it lol. The microwave was pretty clean when Sohla used it and so this episode was definitely filmed before the muffin episode.
When she mentioned it was dirty, I was curious if they were gonna show her cleaning (and clarifying the muffin video) I’m so happy they did. The continuity on this channel is flawless

siri H I, myself, have a difficult time hearing and I wish that more content creators actually included decent captions instead of the auto-generated ones! Especially with cooking videos- since many of the phrases are in French or they’re technical terms, so the captions are often way off.
siri H if you have good hearing, I would sincerely encourage you to write a transcript for people like me, so we can enjoy the entire video instead of just the rough approximation we get with the captions! I don’t speak for the entire deaf/HoH community, but I do know that a HUGE portion of us would WHOLEHEARTEDLY appreciate it if you were to do something like that. Thanks for pointing out the huge need!
Claire at the end of the day: I'm feeling confident. *THE NEXT DAY* Claire: I don't have a great feeling... Man, I swear, the editing is spot on. Perfectly captures the roller coaster that is Gourmet Makes.
Producer: "How do you feel about the way you treated your friends?" *Spongebob meme* Claire: "HoW dO yoU FeEl aboUt thE WaY YoU TREateD YoUR FriEnDS?!"
The way she said "the person who won sold 342" you can tell she still remembers the exact number after all this time and she's still just the littlest bit bitter
@@destah3269 Life's failures can be significant in one's life. I remember placing 3rd in my 7th grade spelling bee, and I still remember who placed 1st and 2nd and moved on to county as well as the word I misspelled and who was giving out the words. However in those years of my life spelling bees were important to me. I participated in them throughout elementary and middle school and placed twice on two separate occasions. So let Clare remember the girl scout cookie competition. No need to sound condescending.
I love the relationship between Rhoda and Claire. Rhoda is just this perfect angel that can do no wrong to Claire and vise versa. Claire looks genuinely happy every time Rhoda walks into frame:)
Rhoda is the producer/director of this show isn't she? That would make sense as to her character towards the "talent" of Claire. (edited to fix Rhoda's & Claire's name)
I feel like BA has realized that we don't want Claire to be sad for our entertainment (at least not too sad) and I like that she has been doing lots of these that she actually enjoys and is good at :)
i would like to say that all lemon cookies are severely underrated and that they deserve more appreciation and i don't care that i am 2 months late, i need to say this
@@lucyla9947 idk what a lemon up is but there are sandwich style lemon cookies that BLUEBELL made into an ice cream and it made me want to live my 600lb life🥴😂
@@Cynful033 a Lemon-up is a Girl Scout Lemon cookie made by Little Brownie Bakers (one of the 2 Girl Scout Cookie groups in the US) it's like a little cookie with a faint Lemony flavor, it's rather tough and like a tea cookie.
Roderick Nguyen the Girl Scouts is basically like a club you learn stuff and have fun and it isn’t a competition, Gourmet Makes is also for fun and it shouldn’t be judged too harshly because it’s just for fun but Claire tries so hard and frustrates herself as if it was a competition which I found funny lol
Dan throwing things at Claire is getting more interesting now that she’s getting some defence hahaha I think he’s secretly been improving her hand eye coordination without her even realizing it cause she catches so much more now instead of just panicking when something comes flying at her
@@TurtleWhiskey I agree with you on that part, to clarify: the people who are called in, are more themselves than they were 4/5 years ago. I have the feeling that I'm getting to know their "real" personality more (like how they would act off camera) . Before I always had the feeling that is was a bit distant. I appreciate you sharing your honest opinion in these toxic times.
Actually this episode was most likely filmed before the episode that Sohla used it for the muffins. Sohla says in the video after the butter explodes, I shouldn't have used this as Claire just cleaned it, shes going to hate me. This is definitely my thought on it as the microwave was clean when Sohla put the butter in to soften it.
@@tomriddle5390 Yup I'm pretty sure that's what they meant. They're saying if Claire sees that Sohla made a mess after Claire cleaned it and after she said she doesn't go there, it will be a little embarrassing ^_^'
"I'm going to let them set overnight so more of my friends will be proud of me" -honestly the validation that Claire needs in all of these Gourmet Makes
Sohla: "I don't go over there [to the microwave]." (Sohla then proceeds to ruin Claire's nice clean microwave in the Pro Chefs Bake Muffins without Measuring Ingredients video at six-and-a-half minutes in)
Actually this was filmed before the muffin episode. In the muffin video Sohla says "Claire just cleaned the microwave" after she had her little accident inside it.
TM06 but if she says in the muffin episode that Claire just cleaned the microwave and we see her clean the microwave in this video that means it was filmed BEFORE the muffin episode, which is what the original commenter was saying
I usually have this tradition where I eat the snack Claire makes while watching, but unfortunately we don't have Girl Scout cookies here in my country (Philippines). Anyways, so grateful for this video keeping me a bit sane in these trying times. (:
Ohhhh noooo! No Girl Scout cookies! Hopefully you can make them for yourself now. Be warned without the end of the box to stop you lol they can force you to eat way too many lol and the cookies do this all by themselves lol
Claire: "I really don't want to temper chocolate" "I am afraid of doing it" "please tell me I don't have to temper chocolate" . . . Also Claire: "Guys, can we do Cadbury eggs" . . .
Yeah, but the eggs start to melt if you look at them the wrong way, so there's no way they're tempered, and they have an obvious seam, Claire could knock that outta the park no problem
@@schwig44 For sure, they totally do be melting even just thinking about buying them . . . but the company's "official" statement is that the outsides are made of a tempered chocolate mold . . . so I guess we will have to wait for Claire to unlock the truth for us
i love how excited she gets whenever she sees rhoda, and gaby is so sweet. i could go on and on about everyone; the crew is so wholesome and playful. it makes my heart happy watching all these. :)
the fact that Claire saw selling the cookies as a high-stakes competition is, in fact, not surprising at all
Lol to be fair you do get prizes when you sell a certain amount of boxes
"did you win?" LMAOO

*when other people help*
Clare:
*when Rhoda helps*
Claire: Rhoda, hi!!
I want Rhoda to be my mom ;-;
So I wasn't the only one who noticed that lmao
was waiting for someone to post this haha!
for reallll like she's so upset that they're forcing her to have help but then Rhoda pulls up and it's a whole different story
It’s pretty rude honestly
Rhoda is literally an angel please don’t ever let her go Bon Appetit
That's the moral dilema of Rhoda... she so nice I wouldn't want her to go, but would you be able to kept her "captive"? ='(
at this point, is "going bon appetit" positively connotated, though?

Desta H Are you ok?
@@ilovesparky13 I don't think he realized that he was responding to a comment on the video and not the video itself.
@@destah3269 so why are you still even watching? gtfo
@@destah3269
Lmao, you only leave negativity on here and talk about how many languages you speak.
You suck
You cannot make Girl Scout cookies better
*Opens half eaten box of cookies* Camera guy: “I don’t know anything about that” 😂
😂
*cut to the muffin baking video*
Sohla: oh no, Claire JUST cleaned the microwave
Exactly. Everyone says Sohla was responsible for it being dirty. No Claire cleaned it and then Sohla exploded butter in it lol. The microwave was pretty clean when Sohla used it and so this episode was definitely filmed before the muffin episode.
Haha I laughed out loud when she started cleaning. Like nooo it will all be in vain 😂
When she mentioned it was dirty, I was curious if they were gonna show her cleaning (and clarifying the muffin video) I’m so happy they did. The continuity on this channel is flawless
Exactly what I was thinking haaaha
Desta H no need to tear down either of our brown queens :(
“The girl who won sold like 342!” V.S my experience: I sold 358 boxes, but the girl who won sold 1,587 boxes! THOSE GIRLS WERE FIERCE AND VICIOUS!!
How do girls even become Girl Scouts? I was little and remember I thought it was some secret cult thing because I never found the “entrance”.
Giving Claire a sash and art crafts was such a good idea, she is so therapeutic to watch.
The most impressive thing was that she was able to write “test kitchen” without running out of room at the end
i was sooo impressed at how good she was at decorating the sash she wasnt lyign when she said she's good at arts and crafts
Of course she nailed it. Who do you think she is, John Mulaney?
@@Tobascodagama HAPpy BIRThday
she is so perfect i cant even deal
Claire: “if you were going to get a badge for something, what would it be?”
Delany: *panicked silence* “....I’ve accomplished **nothing** in my life!
(Much later) Delany: “I would get the leisure badge.”
Claire: •mortified expression•
Aw how nice of you to write subtitles for people who can't hear....
Siri H that’s rude 😑
siri H I, myself, have a difficult time hearing and I wish that more content creators actually included decent captions instead of the auto-generated ones! Especially with cooking videos- since many of the phrases are in French or they’re technical terms, so the captions are often way off.
siri H if you have good hearing, I would sincerely encourage you to write a transcript for people like me, so we can enjoy the entire video instead of just the rough approximation we get with the captions! I don’t speak for the entire deaf/HoH community, but I do know that a HUGE portion of us would WHOLEHEARTEDLY appreciate it if you were to do something like that. Thanks for pointing out the huge need!
Notice none of them said cooking badge?
Sohla: I don't go over there.
Also Sohla: *explodes an egg in the same microwave in a previous episode*
Hahaha
Claire at the end of the day: I'm feeling confident.
*THE NEXT DAY*
Claire: I don't have a great feeling...
Man, I swear, the editing is spot on. Perfectly captures the roller coaster that is Gourmet Makes.
I actually love being able to “see” the personalities of the camera crew !! Makes me happy
ұйұұүұүғ
Producer: "How do you feel about the way you treated your friends?"
*Spongebob meme*
Claire: "HoW dO yoU FeEl aboUt thE WaY YoU TREateD YoUR FriEnDS?!"
lol she is such a mood
zejdi januzi I’ll drink to that 🍺
Lol. Claire interacts best with her friends on her own terms. Don't force it. X)
I just laughed so hard omg
blm
Claire is the member of the group project who volunteers to do the whole thing and gets annoyed if you try to help
The way she said "the person who won sold 342" you can tell she still remembers the exact number after all this time and she's still just the littlest bit bitter
Claire is a teeeny tiny bit of an overachiever.
Desta H dude chill
@@destah3269 Life's failures can be significant in one's life. I remember placing 3rd in my 7th grade spelling bee, and I still remember who placed 1st and 2nd and moved on to county as well as the word I misspelled and who was giving out the words. However in those years of my life spelling bees were important to me. I participated in them throughout elementary and middle school and placed twice on two separate occasions. So let Clare remember the girl scout cookie competition. No need to sound condescending.
I love the relationship between Rhoda and Claire. Rhoda is just this perfect angel that can do no wrong to Claire and vise versa. Claire looks genuinely happy every time Rhoda walks into frame:)
I just want someone to light up when they see me like Claire does with Rhoda.
rhoda's quite pretty
Rhoda is the producer/director of this show isn't she? That would make sense as to her character towards the "talent" of Claire. (edited to fix Rhoda's & Claire's name)
Scott Cress why did you edit to fix rhodas name but not to fix Claire’s?
@@henriyeung05 😄 because I'm an idiot. Thanks for looking out. 👍
I feel like BA has realized that we don't want Claire to be sad for our entertainment (at least not too sad) and I like that she has been doing lots of these that she actually enjoys and is good at :)
Yes! Completely agree! And they've finally gotten the message!
Claire's engagement ring is stunning
Claire in 2030: now lets move on to temperi-
Delaney: okay claire what about the best demin jacket owner badge
🤣🤣
Canadian tuxedo badge
I'ma put it out there: The BA test kitchen is full of the sweetest people ever.
Agreed
Yes ♥️
@TheRadetzkyMarch Who hurt you
@@screamingintothevoid6031 its actually brad in disguise, we all know brad and delaney are mortal enemies
True, it’s a highly likable crew
Claire said, “did you win?” And I IMMEDIATELY knew: she was THAT girl in the troop. 😂
(Still love you, Half Sour.)
It's like her 'Did I get an A?' after playing that game XD
i would like to say that all lemon cookies are severely underrated and that they deserve more appreciation and i don't care that i am 2 months late, i need to say this
AGREED THEY’RE SO GOOD
I actually don't really like the Lemon Ups, mostly because in my Area we had another, better Lemon Cookie before it was replaced with Lemon Ups.
@@lucyla9947 idk what a lemon up is but there are sandwich style lemon cookies that BLUEBELL made into an ice cream and it made me want to live my 600lb life🥴😂
@@Cynful033 a Lemon-up is a Girl Scout Lemon cookie made by Little Brownie Bakers (one of the 2 Girl Scout Cookie groups in the US) it's like a little cookie with a faint Lemony flavor, it's rather tough and like a tea cookie.
Claire: what would your badge be?
Gaby: *looking at Claire’s mess*
Patience
this gives me life xD
Lmao at Claire asking a former Girl Scout “Did you win?” Now I understand the mindset she’s in with these videos
NicoNiikon Twitch wait I don’t get it
Roderick Nguyen the Girl Scouts is basically like a club you learn stuff and have fun and it isn’t a competition, Gourmet Makes is also for fun and it shouldn’t be judged too harshly because it’s just for fun but Claire tries so hard and frustrates herself as if it was a competition which I found funny lol
@@niconiikon7007 so true haha!
Never in the history of fashion has an article of clothing and a human being been so perfectly matched as that Girl Scout sash and our Claire.
Based on her interactions with Cosmo Music, I'd say Claire has shown that she's great with kids!
when did cosmo come here?
halfsoursaffitz he visited during the sour patch kids and the warheads episodes, i believe
Dan throwing things at Claire is getting more interesting now that she’s getting some defence hahaha
I think he’s secretly been improving her hand eye coordination without her even realizing it cause she catches so much more now instead of just panicking when something comes flying at her
she's actually really good at catching too!!
she becames a natural outfielder!
i like ur pfp
I love how the show is getting more and more personality, the whole channel by the way. All their characters are showing more and more! Keep it up!
I want them to finally make a video of Brad teaching her how to drive stick shift
Started with Brad’s Its alive series
@@TurtleWhiskey I agree with you on that part, to clarify: the people who are called in, are more themselves than they were 4/5 years ago. I have the feeling that I'm getting to know their "real" personality more (like how they would act off camera) . Before I always had the feeling that is was a bit distant. I appreciate you sharing your honest opinion in these toxic times.
"This could not be easier by the way. I could do this blindfolded."
**checks length of episode**
Awe.. I'm pulling for you, Claire
Well in this case, it was more of a long process for three different cookies rather than Claire having problems at any point.
@@howler109 Yes, agreed. I was relieved to find out that was the case.
Linz _ zee y was i thinking of commenting that LMFAOOO
Ahhh the same comment that gets posted each time
Chris’ amazement at the caramel channel is adorable and needs to be talked about more
14:40 It's worth revisiting if you didn't notice it. He's so sweet and genuine
Claire: "That microwave is a disgrace to the test kitchen"
Sohla: "I don't go over there"
Lets just hope Claire doesnt watch the muffins episode...
Actually this episode was most likely filmed before the episode that Sohla used it for the muffins. Sohla says in the video after the butter explodes, I shouldn't have used this as Claire just cleaned it, shes going to hate me.
This is definitely my thought on it as the microwave was clean when Sohla put the butter in to soften it.
@@tomriddle5390 Yup I'm pretty sure that's what they meant. They're saying if Claire sees that Sohla made a mess after Claire cleaned it and after she said she doesn't go there, it will be a little embarrassing ^_^'
@@NASYA767 Oh I get that. That is not how I interpreted what she wrote and that could very well be what she meant.
@@NASYA767 Fortunately, Claire revealed she doesn't watch like any of the videos barely so I think we're good.
@@AkaneTaicho Unless someone tells her about it or she reads it in a tweet or comment XD I don't think she'll be too upset anyway, might just be funny
"I'm going to let them set overnight so more of my friends will be proud of me"
-honestly the validation that Claire needs in all of these Gourmet Makes
Sohla: "I don't go over there [to the microwave]."
(Sohla then proceeds to ruin Claire's nice clean microwave in the Pro Chefs Bake Muffins without Measuring Ingredients video at six-and-a-half minutes in)
Actually this was filmed before the muffin episode. In the muffin video Sohla says "Claire just cleaned the microwave" after she had her little accident inside it.
@@GreenMagicMachine We need a Wiki with the complete timeline.
TM06 but if she says in the muffin episode that Claire just cleaned the microwave and we see her clean the microwave in this video that means it was filmed BEFORE the muffin episode, which is what the original commenter was saying
@@abcdeninisse oops meant before the episode
@@GreenMagicMachine which is what they were saying. You disagreed in order to agree
Gourmet makes idea: little debbies - zebra cakes, cosmic brownies...
Yes, please!! I've always wondered how they get that texture for the cosmic brownies
Oatmeal cream pies and that peanut butter bar thing, too
Especially the strawberry shortcakes 🤤
Can I just say… little Debbie brownies are so good for being packaged snacks?
She made them on her main channel btw ❤❤❤
Wow, did not know I needed this until now. You already know I’m gonna be binging these episodes during quarantine
Yayy finally 🤸🏽♀️
Welcome to the cult
You, my friend, have been missing out!
oh my sweet summer child
It’s always so hard to tell if Chris approves or disapproves of something for about 5 solid seconds
Claire's definitely a bit of me: whines because its tedious - doesn't truly want help because perfectionism level is too great
Preach.
definitely need a tour of the kitchen and the dish pit
shout outs to the DJ's out in the pits. you're the heart and soul of every kitchen.
“how do you feel about the way you treated your friends?” lmaoooo
Ooknbtum dgyvjun !
yea she was rude AF. I need some Brad Wholesomeness after that.
She’s the worst!!

Claire: wants to do everything alone
Rhoda: comes along
Claire: RHODA I LOVE YOU PLEASE HELP
God, I love them both
I usually have this tradition where I eat the snack Claire makes while watching, but unfortunately we don't have Girl Scout cookies here in my country (Philippines). Anyways, so grateful for this video keeping me a bit sane in these trying times. (:
That's so wholesome! You can take this opportunity to try the recipes our so you can eat the cookies too.
I'm gonna use Claire's recipe cause we also dont have GIRL scout cookies here
That is the cutest idea. Most of the stuff you can’t get in NZ
Lana Signal i have the same problem! i live in iceland and ive never tasted most of the things claire makes!
Ohhhh noooo! No Girl Scout cookies! Hopefully you can make them for yourself now. Be warned without the end of the box to stop you lol they can force you to eat way too many lol and the cookies do this all by themselves lol
Makes perfectly good peanut butter.
Squeezes oil out.
"This is too dry."
Uses even more oily peanut butter.
RIP, dude
Can we talk about how smart Gaby is? She's seriously brilliant af
I have never related to Claire more than when she anxiety-cleaned the microwave (and then showed off her efforts).
Same. That deep breath in and look of absolute dominion over her environment and world right-setting at 38:11 says it all :D
Anxiety management, I can relate!!
Claire: "I really don't want to temper chocolate" "I am afraid of doing it" "please tell me I don't have to temper chocolate" . . .
Also Claire: "Guys, can we do Cadbury eggs" . . .
Yeah, but the eggs start to melt if you look at them the wrong way, so there's no way they're tempered, and they have an obvious seam, Claire could knock that outta the park no problem
@@schwig44 For sure, they totally do be melting even just thinking about buying them . . . but the company's "official" statement is that the outsides are made of a tempered chocolate mold . . . so I guess we will have to wait for Claire to unlock the truth for us
Best way to clean microwave interior:
Half white vinegar, half water in a bowl
Microwave 4-5 min to make vinegar steam
Wipe!
Tnx for the tip!
Claire: “This could not be easier. I could do this blindfolded”
Me: **checks time on video** **35 min left**
Rebekah N it’s usually at least forty so I think this one won’t be that hard
When it’s 50 minutes, we know she can do it with her back turned😂😂
🤣
Last video was also that long and she made tuna melts and had a pizza party so...
Avery Cee yeah usually it’s a lot longer than 35 min if it’s a hard one
Claire: i dont wanna temper chocolate
Also Claire: hey guys can we do Cadbury eggs...
@@destah3269 so are all ur comments
Desta H rahh your expression your annoyance on everyone’s comment 😂
0:17 “I don’t know who took this out and left it out!” Ummm... looks like the pot Brad used for master stock.... 😅
Gotta love following the BA test kitchen continuity timeline XD
lol. Right?
i love how excited she gets whenever she sees rhoda, and gaby is so sweet. i could go on and on about everyone; the crew is so wholesome and playful. it makes my heart happy watching all these. :)
