Hey my friend! Thanks, yes we're so very lucky like that with the fruit and veggies. They've been getting some great produce lately. The kids are loving taking the different snacks for school too, was such an awesome package to get! Hope you're having a nice evening over there😊
Hi Angie😊💕 Thanks so much. Yes was so lovely and heaps of fun to get some packages in the post, the kids were very excited! The snacks will be muchly appreciated. Hope you have a great day over there xx
Thank you so much again Gloria😊💕 We're enjoying the cookies and sweets very much. The kids took a packet of Nutter Butters each in their lunchboxes today - they're loving it!
I love bananas. Where I use to work people would bring me their bananas that were very ripe. I love them when they get that way. So very sweet... Some days I would have as many as 5. I am so happy for you. Nice haul and congratulations on your gifts. How nice. Take care .💞
I love bananas too, they're best when they have spots and are well ripened aren't they?! I would love people bringing me their ripe bananas too! Thanks so much, yes was so lovely to receive all those yummy snacks (and nori too) in the mail. The kids were so excited! Have a good week my friend😊💕 xx
Hope you are all well and the kids enjoy being back at school. How lovely of Gloria to send the treats for the lunches, bet you all enjoyed them. Great haul also, you have the makings of a good breakfast or evening meal with sausage, eggs, beans and tomato. Have a good week. X
Hey Al! We're all well thanks. Yes was so nice of Gloria to send the snack box, was so lovely to get. Thanks so much, yes so true, we have all the fixings for a great breakfast for dinner meal! Did you manage to get all your onion pickling done okay? Hope you have a great week too😊💕
@@makingendsmeet I'm half way on the pickling, vinegar is about 29p a pint so really cheap, we had a friend who worked on the ferries that go from the East coast to Europe who gave us catering jam jars, about a Gallon in size which are a monster to fill, 🤣, I'm plodding on. X
Thank you for the taste test of treats. I always wonder how they taste, but they are not available here. Except for oreos, which I personally don't like :( As it is, I would probably be a fan of sour patch :D
Hey Gwen😊💕 Thank you so much, that's so kind of you, my kids would love that! I am currently looking into setting up a PO Box. I will hopefully let you all know soon once things are arranged. Have a lovely weekend my friend xx
Lots of yummy stuffs. My favorite oreos dipped into milk yummy. I had some today. Thanks for sharing. HAVE a cuppa and enjoy the day. Blessings.......😊😊😊😊❤
The chicken I probably eat for more than one meal and perhaps add vegetables or some other spices the second time to not make it taste all the same. You can also serve it with rice one time or pasta another or something like that.
Hey my friend! Hope you and your family are well. Thanks for the great suggestions, that's a good idea to add some other veggies or spices to change up the taste... it's quite a large bag, so definitely enough chicken I think to stretch it out for 2-3 meals. Hope you have a good week😊💕
@@makingendsmeet Thanks! I find it so nice to see your world moving towards summer when we move towards winter, it will help me get through all those months of darkness and snow (first frost these last couple days, thankfully, still pretty warm during the day but I put on the winter tires on my bike).
Oh I'm glad to hear that Elin, I will keep you in mind when I film glimpses of our spring and summer and will try to bring you some sunshine🌞 I don't know how you do it (I start to feel depressed if I haven't seen the sun for a couple of days, let alone months)! That must be hard in the dark of winter. Keep safe and warm. Take care xx
That's a great tip... I tried one the other day, they have a pleasant cherry flavour, but they had me buzzing for hours!! Maybe diluting them somewhat would be a good idea in my case hehe!
Very nice haul and wonderful gifts today. The chicken with pomodora sauce can be served with pasta, rice and even risotto. Pomodoro is basically just tomato sauce with herbs added. My mother in law made this a lot. I’ve never had it with chicken, but I bet it’s amazing. You’ll have to let us know how you used it and how it tastes. Was lots of fun watching the taste test. I said right away Chips Ahoy are my favorite. Thanks so much for sharing with us, my sweet friend. Have a great day. 🥰
Thanks so much Tammy😊💕 Yes was so exciting to get some packages in the mail! Glad you enjoyed the taste test, was fun for me too! Everything was delicious... but those Chips Ahoy cookies were extra scrummy as you would say! Hope you're having a nice evening over there my friend. Take care xx
@@makingendsmeet Don’t you just love that word? My grandson told me it’s a thing now. Young people slang 😜Perfect word for beyond scrumptious and yummy! 😊
Hey Theresa😊💕 Oh thanks my friend, you're too kind, my kids would love that! Here's the link to my Amazon Wishlist: amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1FZMQN5OH8KD2?ref_=wl_share
Hi Christina😊 Vegemite is an Aussie food spread made from leftover brewers' yeast extract with different vegetable and spice additives. It has a savory, salty taste. Most people like it spread on (buttered) toast or sandwiches. We love it in our house!
You always seem to get such nice fruit and veg !! So nice to see the goodies for the kids !

Slow and steady wins the race! Wow that is super cheap for vinegar... (cheapest here is about AUS $1.70 for a 2 Litre bottle to compare).
Nice haul! The goodies from Amazon are awesome. Have a great week ❣️😊
Thank you Patti😊💕 Yes they are! Have a fantastic week too!
Thank you for the taste test of treats. I always wonder how they taste, but they are not available here. Except for oreos, which I personally don't like :( As it is, I would probably be a fan of sour patch :D
My pleasure😊 Glad you enjoyed that part. The Sour Patches aren't half bad hehe!
Nice selection of fruits and veggies. Stay well all of you.
Thanks Kathleen😊💕 You too!
My box is 15 dollars
Sometime, if you want, I could send you a Canadian treat / food package
Hey Gwen😊💕 Thank you so much, that's so kind of you, my kids would love that! I am currently looking into setting up a PO Box. I will hopefully let you all know soon once things are arranged. Have a lovely weekend my friend xx
Well worth your $10. It will go a long way added to what you may already have. Good selection of snacks in your box.
Thanks Rosemarie😊 Yes was definitely great value for the money again this time, it will all be very helpful indeed. All the snacks are wonderful too!
I would put the chicken in a slow cooker frozen and let it cook down. Serve over rice or noodles.
then freeze the leftovers for another meal
Great idea, thanks Toni😊
@jennymayo4004 That's smart thinking, thanks Jenny!
Lots of yummy stuffs. My favorite oreos dipped into milk yummy. I had some today. Thanks for sharing. HAVE a cuppa and enjoy the day. Blessings.......😊😊😊😊❤
Hey Judy! Thanks so much. Yes you can't go past the classic Oreos can you?! Blessings to you too my friend. Hope you have a great week😊🍪☕💕
Nice haul

Chips a hoy are the best they used to sell them in Australia and the stopped
Hey Rachel😊💕 Yes they're really delicious!! So lovely to get to try some, I will savour them!
Ys we have looked every where for them same as premium crackers like saladas but better the stopped selling them
Yes I could easily find myself hooked on them, given half a chance!
What a great haul and enjoy all the treats!!!❤❤❤❤❤

Thanks so much June. Yes getting those wedges of pumpkin lately has been great, lots you can do with pumpkin! Hope you get some next time too😊
Looks god
Thanks so much Virginia😊💕
I've added the energy drinks to plain water before as I find the flavor very strong.
That's a great tip... I tried one the other day, they have a pleasant cherry flavour, but they had me buzzing for hours!! Maybe diluting them somewhat would be a good idea in my case hehe!

What do you do with vegemite? Put it on toast?
Yes Vegemite is best spread on (buttered) toast or sandwiches. It has a salty/savory taste (so a little goes a long way). We love it in our house!
What is Vegemite her in U.S. I've never seen it what's it made of sweet or savory?.
Hi Christina😊 Vegemite is an Aussie food spread made from leftover brewers' yeast extract with different vegetable and spice additives. It has a savory, salty taste. Most people like it spread on (buttered) toast or sandwiches. We love it in our house!
