Good morning everyone looking around at all the stuff on I there’s always socks everywhere yeah there’s always socks and it’s never the same person’s twice sometimes yours sometimes you sometimes which always sucks um anyway that sucks good morning everyone day seven can’t be can’t be that is that is wild I am

Heading out actually I really need to go I feel like I’m in my 2 three best I’ve got like flare jeans on the I don’t know what it is about my outfit but I feel like it’s me in 2003 nice it’s bizarre like I’ll see people like really really like people W

Fashion forward and it is exactly what we were wearing I’m like like back then I’m like oh my gosh it’s like freaky pretty sure I’m wearing exactly what I would have worn in 2003 either but I never changed came back I’m still just I was just thinking this must be what people

Like did any of you guys if you’re older than we are is this how you felt if like you know when the 80s came back and you were like oh my gosh that’s what we were wearing or when the 70s not when they yeah cuz they’ve come back well it’s

Funny I just talking about that and we were like you know everyone always says oh it’s you know everything old is new again and it comes back and I’m like yes but to a certain extent I’m like you don’t see people with like big beehives like I don’t see the like that ever

Coming back I don’t see like people wearing like poodle skirts again like you know that’s a good point comes back in certain so much like flapper dresses come back like of you know I mean like it’s not like you’re going to see exactly the same thing again but like there’s a lot of

90s stuff that’s really big right now it’s ’90s have been big for a while I think now we Tyler we’ve moved into the 2000s that’s what I’m trying to say and that is insane yeah yeah that’s why I’m planning on wearing like you know carrying my club around I’m going to

Wear my like uh saber-tooth tiger tunic because I figur that’s coming back the caveman era caveman era is coming back soon so we’ll call you Tyler Flintstone and I’ll wear my fanny pack well those those are back those have been back for a while maybe they’re on their way out I

Don’t know it is very cold I don’t think I have a warm enough this is more like a you know sweater jacket thing swacket shacket wait well anyway um so got my nails done like bright red this was like the perfect tone of red that I wanted so

I’m very happy I feel like sometimes when I get red nails I go too it’s like too deep of a red and it doesn’t I don’t know with my fairer skin I feel like it doesn’t quite look the way I want it to look so very happy with this red um for

Those that are curious I would give you a color but I don’t it’s not like a nail polish it’s a dipped powder so it’s I mean I there is a color but it’s like a specific powder you’d have to buy and anyway so heading home need to warm up

So cold anyway shout out to my nail tech Eric if you’re watching hey thank you so we have these water bead like sensory bin kind of kind of thing that we bought I’m not even sure where we got this I don’t some craft store I don’t remember

Um but these they’re the water beads that come and it look like a little tiny pack of sand and then you put water in them and then they expand and they’re like so much fun to play with I know some people can use them like use them

Like for plants and that kind of stuff I’ve seen people use them so that way the they just continuously stay watered I don’t know anyway they have a lot of stuff but they’re for kids this bin is for kids and it’s really fun to play with but we’ve realized and we’ve had it

For maybe a month now and they’re starting to get a little bit slimy me and we have a bunch of toys right there you can see them in the sink and both the toys and these beads are starting to feel really like slimy so I’m going to

Put them in a colander here I’m going to put these in a colander and really rinse them and give them a really nice uh like just with cold water really rinse them off really well hopefully that’ll get rid of the sliminess and kind of freshen

Them up a little bit cuz gii loves to play with these they’re too Felicity is too young for this cuz they’re just she would probably eat them but Genevie loves it and we’ve decided that we’re going to store all the toys away from this cuz we all kind of had them in the

Same bin it’s got a lid on it and I think that’s probably probably part of the reason why the toys are starting to feel a little bit slimy it’s kind of like a water table like we have a water table we use during the summer if we

Don’t get those out of there they start to feel kind of icky um anyway so we’re going to I’m going to clean all the toys too and then have them stored separately and then hopefully they’ll uh they won’t be like that and when she wants to play

With them they’ll be there but anyway uh hopefully this will sort of uh reinvigorate these water beads cuz they I’m not going to lie they’re pretty fun to play with even for me slimy but satisfying okay we are at the library took them I took the girls here just

Honestly it’s one of our favorite things to do CU there’s a lot for them to play and the kids are is awesome and then we I mean our books are always overdue so we always need to return and then check out some more ones yeah they love it which is so cute

Okay we’ve got cake pop and some lemon loaf me and lissy are sharing we had fun at the library but we are definitely as definitely nap time okay I just got to uh a big box hardware store we I went yesterday like I said to get that paint

And we have a local hardware store that’s like a locally family-owned kind of thing which I always try and go there first but every once in a while they don’t have exactly what I need they have like 80% of what I need for almost every project but there’s just some stuff they

Don’t have or they’ll be sold out or whatever so uh I have to get um a couple things I need to get an 18-in roller for the floors of the garage I figure that um I have the the handle and stuff like that but I need an actual roller cuz

That I figure it’ll be a little bit faster and easier I need to get the actual garage floor paint and I know they have that here um I need to get a couple other things too I of look at my list but um like I said anytime that I

Can support a local business I always try to but every once in a while they just you know you got to go to The Big Box store also I was thinking about it um I I always carry like a just a normal porcelain mug when I’m driving not not

Always but a good majority of the time and I was talking to our editor Justin and he said he does the same thing all the time and I’m like good I’m not alone does anybody else cuz I’m like if I’m going like for a long time or if I’m

Going to be but if I’m like you know just running up the street or something like that and I just I’ll just bring my coffee mug with me cuz I like drinking out of a porcelain mug more than I like drinking out of a to-go mug so sometimes

I bring a actual travel mug but a lot of times I’ll just bring this am I crazy am I alone just just me and Justin is that it I also just remember my brother Austin does the same thing with the mugs so the three of us do it are we

Alone but you know what I’m pretty sure all of us are batting 1,000 I think I don’t think any of us have ever spilled any of it I need some wood to go knock on hold on I’m editing yesterday’s vlogmas right now and I realized I was

Talking about the 300 workout and I just wanted to show if anybody’s interested in doing it I’m the kind of person who when when I go to the gym not as often as I should but when I do go I like having like a plan not just going in and

Wandering around like H maybe I’ll do that maybe you’ll do that so for me like having a workout plan is awesome so I’m just going to show you really fast what um what I’ve been doing for my 300 workout there’s the specific 300 workout and you can find that anywhere if you

Just look it up um but this is the one I kind of modified it a little bit and I’ll show you what I’m what I’m doing and I’m telling you man I am so sore like today head to toe I am sore I mean chest ABS back legs everything is so

Sore so like this has really got me excited and as somebody I mean if I can only get to the gym two three times a week I’m sore for two or three days after so it’s kind of awesome having you know something if I don’t get to the gym

Very often like this is kicking my butt and I feel like I’m getting a really good workout when I do it so let me show you what I’ve been doing I wrote it down here CU I figured it’d be easier for me to just kind of show you so the original

300 workout is 25 P so you have 300 reps so it’s from the movie 300 you have 300 reps it’s a whole thing anyway so the original 300 workout is 25 reps of pull-ups barbell deadlift with 135 lbs 50 reps push-ups 24-in box jumps which is where you kind of stand there and

Then like do a jump up onto a box floor wipers which I had never heard of and I looked it up and I didn’t like them you basically lay on the ground with 135 lb barbell above you and you’re just kind of holding it there and then you’re

Doing like bicycles not bicycles but you’re like hold on so you’re doing like this so like you have the barbell ahead of you you you’re just holding it up and then you’re like doing these leg lifts anyway I tried to do that hated it hurt

My lower back so I stopped doing that so I’ve replaced that the single arm clean and press with the cattle Bell I’ve done those before I’m not a huge fan I did it once this time I didn’t really like it either so I kind of replace that and

Then you end with another 25 Pull-Ups so that’s the original 300 workout and then here’s my modified one this is what I’ve been doing I’ve done it seven times so far and it is killer so I do the 25 pull-ups I do the barbell deadlift with

135 lbs that’s where I just have the bar and you know it’s just a a regular deadlift 20 uh 50 push-ups and then I do instead of the box jumps because I don’t like doing box jumps I do the decline leg press the one where you kind of like

Lay down um and push the weight up hold on let me show you this machine here I do 50 reps on this then I do 50 reps with an ab roller then I like I said I did that once I don’t really like that so I’m I don’t really like that so I

Just end up doing curls and I do hammer curls which are like where your arms are like this and you’re doing it and then like this um I do 50 of each of those um an incline chest press and then 25 pull-ups again so depending on how you

End up doing it ends up being 350 to 400 reps but um that’s what I’ve been doing and it is I’m really really liking it I feel like it’s kind of got me like reinvigorated with working out it’s like gotten me really excited so um anyway if

You want me to post this anywhere let me know cuz I can if you like having something to you know sort of do and then obviously just kind of like what I did just replace things that you don’t like to do um like certain things like I

Don’t know why like when I do bicycles and stuff like that it just hurts my lower back I don’t know what it is and I’ve tried different things so like just you know obviously change things as as you want but this is a great workout I telling you man it

Is kicking my booty um and one last thing is it takes me about 40 minutes 40 to 45 minutes to do the whole set so if I have a whole hour what I’ll do is I’ll do that whole set and then I might tack

On a couple things at the end um but I was reading like a lot of people who do it like you sort of test to see who can do it the fastest and some people can do it in like 20 minutes 25 minutes you know just depending on a million factors

How fast you can do it but anyway that just want to let you know that is about a 40 to 45 minute workout for me and then if I’m really have a little bit more time I’ll go sit in the sauna and that’s that’s that’s my treat after

Working out okay I just realized I have not like vlogged in a hot minute um what oh okay well I’ve been busy is really why so we went to the library as you saw which was just lovely so I I’ve been spending a little bit of time

Planning for our like holiday party we have with our friends we had I might have explained this a few days ago do you remember but basically we had one in 2019 it was just a mixture of friends we know that didn’t necessarily know each

Other so it was just fun and it was I don’t know we love to host and it was just we loved it so we were excited to do it again like legitimately this year and so we’ve got all kinds of friends coming and so I wanted to plan and cuz

It’s in literally a few days so I’ve got I’ve compiled some recipes I was on Pinterest and Google and everywhere finding some recipes for different things um and of course we will show you what we end up making in this spread and stuff cuz um hopefully it’ll end up

Being pretty cute but I also pulled out cookbooks and I’m like a little overwhelmed because dessert wise I wanted to have like um we’ll have some sort of Christmas cookie will make probably our Thin Mints cuz you can make so many and you can make them ahead of

Time and they freeze well so we’ll make those but I was like I don’t really want to have another cookie and I have a strong suspicion some people will bring Christmas cookies but I wanted to have another dessert that’s maybe one that you can hold like they you know what I

Mean individual ones that’s not a cookie not a cupcake I don’t know let me know if you have any ideas lemon bars hey get a little weird those lemon things we had at our those were really good oh my gosh they were like little pastries with just a little bit of like

MD in the middle so good but like maybe something different so someone doesn’t want chocolate yeah um I’m in charge of the games though and I don’t really know what I’m doing yet but I’m excited about that so I’ve gotten a lot of that planned but I need I wanted to run some

Ideas by Tyler now that he’s home because just get his opinion on a few of the things I’m thinking about doing um and we got to figure out like when we’ll make certain things what we can make ahead also will we have enough room in

Our oven like am I baking too many and then we’ll need to make the grocery list and actually go to the store maybe tomorrow we’ll see um I don’t know maybe may I don’t know oh I don’t I don’t need you to go with me I’ll go you’ll you’ll

Just weigh me down babe I don’t I don’t know how else to say this but no no anyway we’ll figure that out but but it was good it was kind of nice cuz this has been on my plate for a while and I’ve been meaning to actually sit down

For an hour or so and plan it now I feel like we’ve actually got a decent plan in place give or take it will happen either way oh I also was FaceTiming with my parents um and yeah I and yet again year like three that I’ve had our Braun

Family cookbook binder and I always say I’m going to organize that and put like all I need to do is literally organize it and I it’s been years and I still haven’t done it it’s like a 45 minute project it’s 45 minute project like we could have on a Christmas movie and I

Could just spread this all half the recipes in here are ones that I printed once we tried and we were like don’t like those can be recycled I why have I not done it when I decided I’m going to do a project I do it right away and

Definitely don’t wait four years yeah doesn’t sound like you at all anyway so that might be something I try to tackle maybe didn’t no anyway we’ll figure it I got I got big plans you guys okay some of the library books we got we love

Sandra Boon books we own quite a few but that’s not one I’ve read this one was just a cute like night timey one Baron Mouse time for bed this one looked so cute a winter walk in the city it literally just goes through like counting but it’s just wintry and I

Don’t know why but this just made me smile it reminded me of a snowy day I love that book so much then these slide and SE books we are she really likes these and then XII picked out some really cool kind of old school look how old

School this one looks Mickey and the beanock some other Disney one she just had to have this Halloween one we were in the Disney section just by happen stance and then we got a Bluey book what else we got oh five little ducks that’s a Lizzy one and then I

Wanted to read her this one my teacher is a monster it’s cute hi P hi handsome you wag that too mm all right dinner time we’re doing bath time before dinner cuz it was the only way it was happening you can hear that going on right now we’re doing

Salmon lentils and Brussels sprouts for dinner we have got brussels sprouts so I just trimmed and haved all of these and I just have olive oil salt and pepper we have another fancier version we do with these honestly typically when Tyler makes them with balsamic and there’s

Like a whole process but um I was craving brussels sprouts I’m the one that put this on the meal plan and I just want them as they are sometimes we’ll drizzle a little balsamic the last few minutes just to give it a little bit of that cuz I do like that flavor too

But I am a huge brother brussel sprouts fan um I am working on the lentils right now the Brussels sprouts are already in the oven this is one of those dinners that timing wise it’s not going to work out great because I’m doing the salmon

At the end and it’s a recipe I’ve never tried but some of it was just like the lentils are a little more involved that I realized and I even found a different recipe to use and it’s still a little more involved so I feel like not everything’s going to end at the same

Time which always stresses me out and I’m like Jessica it’s not that deep so um I need to get to work on the salmon but first I need to had the lentils to the pot Okay so we’ve got the lentils going um I can link the recipe I’m using

We’ll let you know in this Vlog if they’re good or not it called for like Italian seasoning some turmeric onion um salt pepper you know um but we did not have in it called for and we were totally out so I’ve added it to the grocery list but that might affect how

It tastes I guess we shall see now this is the salmon recipe that we’re making from Ina Garden modern comfort food um it looks so good TBH it’s more involved like I didn’t realize a food processor was involved I’m like so we’re going to do it because we have all the stuff and

I I’m just craving this kind of salmon with an aolia it just sounds so good but like I said it I don’t know I don’t think it’s that difficult but it’s just one of those recipes that’s very specific like do this for 3 minutes then

Let it rest for 3 minute like it’s very particular so I’m going to have all of my attention on this here in a few minutes really once I get these lentils to boil it’ll simmer and I’ll put a lid on it for quite a while so I’ll have

Time to focus on that the Brussels sprouts are cooking and we’ll just have to keep them warm um because they’ll definitely finish before I think it’s going to be pretty good I really hope it is cuz I’ve got high hopes Jessica and I went upstairs for 5 minutes Jessica had just finished

Dinner and if this isn’t a metaphor for our lives at the at our current season of life I I don’t know what is what this dog I don’t know this has happened like three or four times in the last like two months I don’t know if the trash can

Doesn’t close all the way but it it automatically I don’t know if he’s figured out how to open it himself I I really don’t know I need to set up like a camera and just see what happens he gets into the trash and gets everything all over there was obviously

The the like the paper the butcher paper from the salmon tonight and I think that’s what caught his nose and now there’s all this oh Pinocchio what are we going to do with you buddy what do you have to say for yourself young man Pinocchio why would you do that

Pinocchio why did you do that guilty guilty all right here it is I am very curious to try all of this Welcome to The Cutting Board I’ve got a new purse you guys is it cake oh interesting yeah okay so I’ve been using my uniel purse if you saw it

Was a vlog on my channel not too long ago I did like a what’s in my purse I thought I’d ordered this a while ago on Amazon I went back through my orders I was like oh I didn’t so I ordered it for real this time because I am really into

Hounds tooth right now is this not the most 1998 purse you’ve ever seen you can do it crossbody it also came with a like just shoulder strap so it’s shorter which is what I’m going to do right now it’s the perfect size to fit my phone whenever I get it

Back I even tried by the way to get on Verizon and like try to figure stuff out and it was trying to text a code to my phone rip I’m like you guys so I think I need to go into the store or call well

And the other one the other one is being shipped it’s just taking forever I don’t know what there’s no update so I’m like I don’t know anyway we’ll get it figured out I know first world problems phones will survive anyway that aside whenever I get my phone back but like a slim

Wallet a phone like I almost said laptop Keys what am I even talking about I don’t know lip balm Keys would all fit anyway there’s a zipper I feel like that’s the kind of burst You’ see like princess Dy wear yes yes exactly I got to figure out how to attach this but

It’s so cute it’s like actual like cloth there’s like a little Shimmer in the black part which I didn’t expect actually feels pretty darn well made I have to say um so I just wanted to share that because I’m very excited I’ve been waiting for this for a month because I

Thought I’d ordered it I never did um why do I not know how to do this though is it you like put it in and then oh I see look at that you guys come on obviously H there you go you can do it through the thing and then through

The thing I got to puncture it through but anyway I excited I hope you guys love it as much as I do it’s just giving me all the Vibes you’re right Princess D which reminds us when we’re through with the morning show this season 3 we’re on

We need to watch the crown oh my gosh um hey okay I have a topic of discussion tonight okay I was thinking the other day when I was at the post office and it was absolute chaos December 4th 5th whatever day that was and I was like how

Was it already this busy it was crazy I was looking around inside and then I came outside I had two realizations two very different realizations one I was waiting in line for the selfs serve kiosks that they had there I don’t know if any of your guys’

Post offices have that really nice um the line for the actual people to help you was probably 20 deep like 20 sep okay 15 okay it was long like I was like glad I don’t have to go on that line so I’m in a line of like four people for

The like six self-service kiosks so I’m waiting and my normal self would have well what would you have done if you’re waiting in line what would you do what I thought we were waiting for them to answer no no them too you two what would you do

You’re waiting in line at the post office like door of the Explorer all I’m there for I had already dropped off the packages because they were like already done I’m waiting to just get stamps so there’s nothing in my hands what would you do I assume you would look at your

Phone right so without having a phone I’m like looking at my watch I’m like there’s nothing look at on here yeah so then you just start to people watch and I had this moment where I was like this is what we all used to do and maybe some

Of you guys still do maybe you’re better than me in a good way and you don’t look at your phone you know what’s funny so literally I am working on that right now because I notice exactly if I have 30 seconds I will pull my phone so I’ve

Been really trying a lot recently to do EX that to just leave my phone in my pocket and just look around just be like where what am I looking at right now where am I like be in the moment even if it’s something stupid like at the post

Office and just like observe my environment and it’s so funny because even just the couple months I’ve been trying to make this appoint to do this you see the craziest stuff and everyone is looking at their phone constantly anyway so anyway that’s funny that you were kind of forced to do this

Because I’ve been trying to do exactly this I I like to think it’s God like hahaa see but yeah I didn’t discover anything crazy it was just that even in those few moments I’m always looking at it so it was kind of refreshing it made me realize

How not often I am in the real world and you know what I mean and it was kind of not scary but kind of sad to be like even these dumb moments like that don’t really matter in life you’re just standing in line you’re not talking to

Anyone you’re not but you’re just we’re so in the virtual world I know you guys are watching a YouTube video I watch YouTube we we’re all doing the same things but it was just one of those moments so I want to try to once I eventually get my phone back I would

Like to try to be more conscious of that too yeah do you guys ever look at your screen time oh if you take your screen time for a day and times it by 365 or take your week times it by 52 weeks in a year tells you how much of a year of

Your life you have spent on your phone and then you multiply that by 30 40 50 years like well there’s my I spent four years of my life on my phone like it’s it it’s terrifying well and so again not to brag but that’s one thing I really

Really work on is is not is in you are actually really good at it but it’s really hard because like I don’t spend much time on my phone I’m I I feel like I’ve not gone wood I’ve gotten really good about not spending time on my phone

And most of my time is just like the maps on my phone when I’m driving places that’s one thing I talked oh you just edited did wait was that today yes no it was yesterday but it adds to the screen time and so like my my average sced time

Is like less than an hour a day which is awesome but I also work on a computer comp all day long I work you know I I always have the TV on so like those screens are still screens they’re just different kinds of screens so it’s not

Really any better you have an addiction it’s TV if I have one it’s definitely my phone without a doubt hands down um but yeah I want to work on that I think this has been I read that book how to break up with your phone yeah really took a

Lot from it mentally but then didn’t apply much so this has been a nice little it’s funny that was it two days ago we talked about waking up at like 5:00 A.M I read a book probably in again I’m a pretty positive person probably the worst book I’ve ever read in my in

My entire life it was called the 5 a.m. club and it was the most weird like I’ve read a decent amount of like self-help kind of books and this was like I can’t I don’t even know what it was anyway it did not inspire me to wake

Up at 5 a.m interesting I kind of like to read it because sometimes you and I have differing views on books so it was sort of this weird like he tried to like create this weird storyline where like these people met at a conference and then like at the end they got married

And like there was some guy who was like a fiction book or was it yeah but it was like this guy was like 70 years old and had a six-pack and he was like teaching these young people and how to wake up at at at 5:00 a.m. every day and but it was

All just them like talking at each other these weird like well do you know what what this person said and like talking like random meant to be self-help but in but they were talking quotes of other people it was horrible it was horrible that does sound interesting read it cuz it

Was the most fascinating terrible book I’ve ever written um but the um uh the guy Robin Robin something anyway if anyone else has read that book am I crazy this was a couple years ago I read it has anybody else read it and if so

Let me know was it called the 5 a.m. Club the 5 a.m. club or I remember when you finished that and I said was it good cuz I was curious about it and you were like no well more importantly do you have a book that actually inspired you

To get up at 5:00 a.m. actually I would love to read that because you know yeah we’ve already talked about that any you had a key word for today my other well that yeah we getting part of it so my second realization was hi bud hi buddy

Hi my ANS and buns anyone curious this is not a b collar it is a GPS tracker cuz we have a little sniffer and he loves to slowly sniff himself away from the house if he gets out he does he like hardly ever gets out but and he never

Runs away he just but the few times he did when was younger like I mean slowly meandered it was very scary so yeah it’s called a whistle it is amazing um there’s an app that like would alert you if he’s outside of your like GPS Zone and it’s a couple vlogmas ago my

Brother’s dog um I think what did I say my dog’s brother got lost my brother’s dog and then uh but anyway that he his dog now has a whistle yep so anyway highly recommend um okay what were we saying okay my other realization this is dumb it is truly dumb

So we live in a climate that has four seasons Indiana it we have a typical winter with snow it’s cold not anywhere near as cold as like farther north like Canada and stuff but it we have very cold Winters and um my reason for saying that is one

Realization I’ve had is that people in Indiana will hold off so anyone I feel like that has true Winters will hold off as long as possible before actually pulling out their real winter coat I’m walking around I’m not wearing one I’m wearing like a sweater whatever I’m

Getting away with whatever I can and I W looking and people are in like shorts and like hoodies they’re in all kinds of is he being needy just go ahead keep talking so anyway I was like whatever whatever we’re just talking so he thinks for talking I love when he does that

He’s like come on more more more I’m going start doing that to you give me a massage just keep doing it you’re such a good boy P any anyway it’s just funny to see like people just getting away with as close as possible to a coat without it

Actually being a coat and then we all like decide fine it’s cold enough I wore a t-shirt yesterday cuz I couldn’t I’m like I I’m waiting until the very last minute I also feel like when I was a kid I would wear like a shorts and t-shirt

Outside cuz I was trying to be cool you know what I mean oh yeah it’s like wearing book on one shoulder when you yeah so then I got older and I started wearing a coat like cuz it was like oh it’s cold and then doesn’t make you cool

To not wear a coat but now I feel like I’ve gotten to the point where I don’t wear a coat because I’m like I don’t know why I feel like Indiana Winters are bad but they’re not really all that bad so a lot of times I you know you’re not

Going to be outside for an extended period of time you’re like I’m just going in and out yeah so a lot of times I’ll just wear a hoodie or something and I just feel like his job yeah I also always think about like okay well it’s

Not as you know it’s much colder in Alaska or it’s much colder in Norway and like when I have that mindset I’m like that’s not so bad well that’s an interesting mindset cuz we ain’t in Norway yeah but I don’t know I feel like having that mindset I’m like it’s not so

Bad yeah I I know I definitely am of the camp of if I’m running in and out but then I always have my parents in my head like if you get in an accident you’re going to want a coat so I always bring it whether I wear it or not I bring it

To the car and the girls always have their coat see then there’s that like you can’t especially with like the younger babies you’re not supposed to buckle them in with their coat so you have to bring them into the car without the coat Buckle them in so they’re safe

Then when you get them unbuckled you got to put the coat on to get out and it’s like oh my God and you’re just like running into the house so half the time we’ll run in wrap a blanket around them if we’re literally running from our car

10 steps into Nana’s house yeah well I remember I did that one time with my mom like where’s where’s her coat I’m like well technically you’re not supposed to have a coat anymore and so you know like I’m literally going from your driveway inside the house like so I’m not going

To put the cat on like and we’re talk we’re talking like 45° not like negative five you know what I mean Fahrenheit anyway we could go on and on but yeah it was just kind of a funny realization I’m like yeah I bet it’s even crazier when

You get farther north where they’re it’s just crazy cold they’re like they got tougher thicker blood yeah they’re hardened people there that’s right we was talking about in Chicago there are hardened people in Chicago they have to deal with those those Winters see there’s part of me like in Chicago I

Almost feel like when You’ got big time Winters you just embrace it right off the bat because you’re like I’m outside waiting on a train for 30 minutes so you go to the full-fledged long coat right away cuz you’re like I’m not messing around I’m not I don’t want to be cold

So I’m just going to go all in so anyway yeah these are my important realizations I’ve had in the past week I haven’t had any I have had zero thoughts anyway the situation oh we didn’t talk about dinner it’s not one I’m familiar with um Robert California um from the office Bob

Kmus what was I just going to say oh dinner thoughts loved it I loved it yeah the really the aoli made it I mean I mean everything was really good but I I kind of just mixed everything together I’d get like a Brussels sprout some lentils and then some salmon all in a

Bite with the the Brussels sprouts were perfect is they just had to stay warm for too long cuz I was trying to finish like I told you and we were also getting like Felicity and dealing with anyway yeah the brussel sprouts were perfect I will link that recipe I’ll link the

Recipe like these are all from certain blogs like they’re not going to be on our site but um cuz the Brussels sprouts was the most simple but if you’ve never done it that way I thought it was perfect um the lentils were pretty good

But I don’t know that I need to do that recipe again but if you need a basic good like flavored lentil recipe I would say it was good it was like 20 minutes one pot um anyway the salmon itself again had to wait for too long before we could

Actually eat it so I think it would have been a little bit better um but yeah that aoli I would make 10 times over did we talk about the salmon though that we got fresh salmon yes well you tell it cuz you were there I heard long story

Short we we always buy frozen salmon and then we thaw it and we use it that way that’s the only that’s what we’ve always done this time though I went to the like the seafood counter and got salmon I don’t know why this idea we used to go

To the deli counter to get like our you know lunch meat and that kind of stuff but going to the Butcher and like asking for salmon I don’t know why that idea never occurred to me me either I know well and I it didn’t occur to me I get a

Little freaked out when there’s like do you call it skin on the salmon still you can just ask them to cut it off well and a lot of times I’ll buy it and I’ll fillet it at home I’ll just kind of take that off at home um but they but I mean

When you can just ask them to do it and it’s no extra charge and it’s fresh I mean that’s so so so the salmon itself it was good but they only really made it we’re a sauce Family yeah definitely a sauce I’ve always said I’m going to make

A shirt that says like more sauce more sauce more sauce or something on it like eventually yeah that would be very much on brand yeah I’m a very yeah even you we we like sauce as a family but I am like too I like sauce but I don’t put a

Lot on it like I like it with it but I’m I’m not apply applying like it’s makeup I’m not applying a big thick layer I’m in it for the sauce you are in it for the sauce I could eat cardboard with sauce on that’s just what I like and you

Can all leave me alone Everyone likes what they like just leave them alone anyway uh anything else important to say we’ve been talking for a long time all right well if we think of anything else we’ll see you guys tomorrow getting closer guys see you tomorrow you didn’t deny It
