    My heart aches with yours. My son is currently deployed to that part of the world. Not knowing what will happen from day to day is difficult. It was much easier being a military wife that it is being a military momma. We didn't have children during my husband's time of service. My son and his wife have 2 babies. I think that is what makes it harder. This is the second deployment in less than a year. We know to expect these things but this one is a little more difficult. Your emotions help us all see how big this is and that people really do care. Thank you for not hiding your emotions from us. It was a special gesture that is appreciated. God bless!

      Hey Skye Girl...you''re Simply Cherie's friend. Thank you so much for stopping by. Yes. I think maybe we are. It was tough watching that video of that poor man asking for help for his people. I was like, please God, let them close the skies over Ukrane. They did not. I just kept thinking about the poor people. My husband was trying to explain all the repercussions with that and all I could see was the families, the children, and the elderly. And of course, I have no answers. Just tears. With you being a person in the skies often, you probably know more than I do. Thank you for understanding.

    Hi Denise. Sending you encouragement. I loved this video! For some reason, the sounds your bags made, the sounds of you cleaning and sanitizing, and sealing the chicken in bags was very comforting, along with your beautiful voice. I was a bit tense as the video started, but I felt like I was at home with my mom while she worked in the kitchen, with those comforting sounds she always made. I miss her so much. Thank you for all you do for us. God bless.

    I’m so sorry you are feeling upset. It means you love and care. I’m upset as well. It is so much to deal with COVID-19 and all the political unrest. I’m Jewish and any time political upheaval begins of any kind or civil rights are violated, it effects me because of the Holocaust. I get very scared and then I try to ask myself”What can I do?” We have a donation program to Ukraine through my husbands work. But I’m also going to contribute to a local woman’s shelter for woman’s history month. Sending you some positive energy.

      @@homemakingwithdenise It looks good. Many base foods, fruit and veggies, if we in America eat the fresh food, the canned and shelf stable items can be sent to Ukraine, rather than like donating (disaster capitalism). Every one eat a bit less, be mindful of waste, cook base foods, etc. have the "savings" spread across the world. I do not if that works or not. But if it does even the poor, can help them and end up helping themselves too. (I think the govt makes puts aside foreign aid in the form of food but maybe if there is excess in the grocery store supply chain of boxed and canned items that maybe it would keep the cost of foreign aid food down or if the govt goes to these manufacturers, maybe that will drive the price down? That is what I am hoping.)

    Denise, your reaction this morning to the world we all find ourselves in was not dissimilar to how we all feel. Things are so out of control and there seems little we can do ourselves. I've learned that personally, doing what I can where I am for those near me is important. Giving to local food bank, donating to organizations that I can trust to help those suffering, etc...You are doing a service teaching others to prepare for hardships that may or may not come our way. Frugality in meals, keeping a home in order and caring for it to provide a place of refuge for family, visitors, you do this and do it well. It matters. It all matters. And we pray... Bless you, dear lady.

    "I just don't know" is a phrase I have been using a lot lately with my own daughters who are 11 and almost 13 and with my middle school students. "I just don't know" and really don't have suitable words for my feelings because it is such a terrible mix of sadness, anger, and anxiety.

    I have been going through RUclips videos to rediscover old recipes or depression recipes. And have learned how to make my own yeast. But also found out you can freeze yeast. I put mine in a Ziploc bag. Every time I find it I purchase at least 1 3pack. And add it to my stash. I also have discovered how good Salmon patties are. And makes quite a few from one can. Or a good quick to fix item for unexpected company or snack with a dipping sauce. And Tuna noodle casseroles. 😄 Haven't made that in years. But are things I'm adding to my pantry preps. And I am getting a hand crank wheat grinder soon. In our preps we forget that potatoes can be used just like flour. For breads doughnuts even candies.

    I am so thankful that you expressed your feeling about what is happening to people just like us. Families who love each other. I don't see how they can get through this. This is the first time I felt like I wasn't watching a cooking show. I was sitting in your kitchen with you. I am of Lithuanian descent. The only reason I was born in the US was because they did that to my family of origin a long time ago. They were farmers. So many people forget, or they just don't care. btw, I love the way you greased the heck out of that cake pan.

    You might want to check the shelf-edge price labels in the store. Where I am, the price per ounce, pound, etc - is already on that label. That's what I use for figuring out the best price. Sometimes, what's on "sale" isn't the best buy. And I'm with you on the heartbreak of what's going on in Ukraine. Your tears are shared by many.

  • @debbyjo123
    @debbyjo123 2 года назад

    I totally understand about using those digital coupons. My Kroger told me if I go to the service desk they will give me the discount w/o loading the coupons. That was awhile ago so they may have changed their policy, but you might ask them if this is possible for you. I don’t know, but wanted to mention that in case it would be helpful for you.
    Yes, I agree with you about the ‘world’ situation. It’s all so unnecessary and heartbreaking. I have a friend in my Bible Study that is from Russia and has family in Russia AND Ukraine. So, we get updates at least twice a week… she is beside herself and feels so helpless as you can imagine.
    Wish I was eating one of those cinnamon rolls!! 🤣
    Thanks for another video.

    Yes. I remember Vietnam as well. The news gave us the soldier death counts everyday. And the War Journalists over there had short video and comments on events everyday. We have been through hard times in our lives. But nothing like experiencing war or bombings in till 9-11. My heart breaks for the people of the Ukraine. To have to leave all behind. And only carry a small bag or luggage with wheels. To get to the border on foot in sub zero temps. Just can't imagine!!
