    The final Advent sleigh was brilliant! 😂 I hope I win the lottery next year and finally succeed in getting an Advent calendar! This video comes out on Dec. 28 but its no less joyful to share how your family spent the days leading up to and on Christmas day❤. 🎄☃️🎁. Sandi, your channel has filled different needs for a variety of different people around the world, how could we ever show you our appreciation for sharing your life and family with us? I hope we earn that trust with respect in return. Joy and happiness to everyone for 2025.

    31:57 Yay! I was wondering if Sandi had kept the Billie girl, from the current market lambs' group.
    It's a challenge to find a favorite, in the brief moments when she is weighing, selecting and moving the groups around in the smaller barn.
    I love to see the Billie and Tunis girls when they are newborns. And I know Sandi still tries to keep the biggest and healthiest, as future mothers in her herd.
    But still...the Billie girls are great moms- and quite prolific as well (Bella comes to mind)!😅

    Jess, the reason you mix the dry and wet ingredients separately is because you need to evenly distribute the smaller amounts of the other dry ingredients so you don’t bite into a pile of salt or baking powder. It’s happened to me before.

    • @janisedenton4242
      @janisedenton4242 18 дней назад +10

      Yes, and I run it all through the sifter twice. A big bite of cloves makes your mouth numb for hours! 😮 Congrats on the Dean's List! And lambing is over! ❤❤

    • @jooleebilly
      @jooleebilly 18 дней назад +3

      And you have to mix the wet ingredients REALLY well so you don't end up with a big egg-yolk in one cookie. Since flour is pre-sifted I don't do that, but it's still a good idea! If I still had a sifter I'd do it, especially as a way to mix the flour, salt, and baking soda and/or powder. And never over mix the dough. Only mix it up (with a spoon, not a mixer, please) JUST until the dry doesn't show. If you overmix, you'll throw off the texture and get tough cookies. Overmixing can be disastrous. Unrelated, but I once was mixing whipped cream in a Kitchen Aid and forgot about it. By the time I remembered, I'd quite literally made butter! But I couldn't use it because it already had XXX sugar and vanilla in it. It went nicely with scones, though.

    Wonderful things are happening to my other favourite sheep couples!

    We had rib eye steak and a baked potato bar for Christmas Eve dinner, and it was great!!! It made everyone happy! It included lots of cheddar cheese, sour cream, bacon, butter, broccoli, and chili, gingerbread cookies, and hot chocolates!!

    REQUEST? If you are able to would you & Jess do that same place once every season?? You know, show us the spring, summer, & fall BUT, also get to hang out & chill together. Just give us that "Canadian Gilmore Girls" vibe/ feel while you'se can? My youngest is the last one still home & he's about to get married. You could say that, I'm really feeling this up coming empty nest-ness? 😂😂❤

At 62 yrs young, I still watch it. You are the coolest in what you do. I am so glad you had an amazing CHRISTmas. Happiest of New Year to All the Brock’s 🥂🍾🎆🕛

    When I dod agricoulture highschool with horses for my part I pickes a school horse tobe the "owner" for each christmas. We did all chores and training them during the holidays. I loved christmas morning all the days becouse we went out riding in the dark and snow and cold and it was so quite and no one awake yet. Sometimes someone took the sleigh and tourshes when we went around the village

Wonderful video Sandi, comprehensive as always, but it was nice to see the Brock family get a chance to relax and spend family time. You are usually always constantly working. Growing up on a dairy farm myself, I totally understand that. Morning chores always had to be done first... So good to see Jack again!
