Best part of your video was the little guy saying "Hi friends" what a sweetheart.

[@Jport3]

Is there ANYTHING you CAN'T do?!? I think not!! You ROCK at EVERYTHING!!!♥️🥰 THANK YOU SOOO MUCH for zooming in and showing us how to debone and clean it up!! Your grand babies are sooo precious!! 💞🙏🏼💞

[@joanczarra-jn8ov]

How wonderful would it be to have this lady for a neighbor!

[@debbeasher-k4764]

Adorable GrandBabies....See ya next time. Delicious recipes. Great deboning instruction. Bless you and your family.

[@candacekraut5050]

Renee you are such a blessing to your family and friends. Your friend with the back pain will really appreciate your kindness!!!! Also I keep winter gloves right by my deep chest freezer. It makes a big difference when you digging in freezer for stuff.

[@shirleymorgan9254]

Your little grandson is so adorable. Thank you for sharing.

[@shirley1838]

I so enjoy you!! You enjoy cooking and feeding others, like I used to do. You've got the nicest family 😊 God bless you and all of your family. ❤

[@conniealmeida3373]

Your grandkids are so precious. Hi there little ones always enjoy your videos. I learned a lot from you.❤

[@tamaraameling1289]

I keep a magnetic hook on the outside of my freezer to hang a pair of gloves on. Once my hands get cold I seem to be cold all over and have a hard time warming back up. I hope your friends know how lucky they are to have you in their lives!!!

[@Grammysgarden]

What a helpful video. I have cut up chicken for lots of years but never knew how to cut that thigh like you do, thank you. And, your grand babies are precious( I can tell they are much loved) have a blessed day❤️

[@osmadchlo]

I really enjoy watching you in the kitchen! It reminds me of the things I don't know or just haven't thought of. Your tips and hints are like diamonds! I never knew how easy it is to debone a chicken thigh!

[@DianeC.]

Yes I really liked how she did that!!!...🦋

[@virginiaallisonpeck2517]

I just love that beautiful gas stove…❤❤❤ you are a blessing, thanks so much for your educational cooking 💖👏🏽🫶🏼

[@pengle]

Great video. Nice to see the reality of day to day freezer use. For applications of paprika like you used on the chicken or for maybe potato salad, devilled eggs, etc. - I keep some in a salt shaker. Very easy to use and control where it goes.

[@WillowsGarden]

Hi Renea and John! Everything looked amazing. Thanks for sharing and have a blessed night!

[@heathernotzdaniels6350]

Years and years of watching my grandma break apart chicken carcasses just came flooding back into my brain. I'm not sure she ever bought already cut chicken as she could always get a better deal on whole birds. Thanks for the reminder of how easy it is to get down to a boneless thigh. 😊. Good lesson today, lady!

[@martyvandy5154]

Hi! I watched the video with you and your Mother cooking potatoe soup, that was awesome! That was my Mothers’ go to when any of us got sick, and of course I’ve carried it on with my family. I’ve never put anything in potatoe soup but potatoes, but I’ve got to make your receipe. Thank you and your Mother so much.

[@leannekenyoung]

WOW RENEE YOU ARE INCREDIBLE!!!!! Thank you! I’ve never seen anyone teach with such skill and patience! These are skills everyone should be taught but sadly very few know how. It’s too bad butchers these days don’t take as much pride in their work because I’ve purchased boneless skinless thighs with the bones in and with so much fat there was hardly any meat I found them disgusting but yours look beautiful!!! Thank you for sharing! I’d be making broth all the time if I could manage to do what you do! I sure will try! Thank you! 🥰❤️🙏🏻🇨🇦

[@DianeC.]

Hi Renea!!! I liked your video but have to watch these long ones in parts. Your freezers are sure full. I only have 1 big one down the base that I need to clean out. I enjoyed everything you showed us today. Thanks!!!...Great video!!!...🦋

[@patriciahartless2095]

😊Happy Thursday , Mrs. Renea , Mr . John And Family 😊 . You Have Such A loving Family . God Has Blessed You So Richly . The chicken and rice with the veggies . Looks so delicious . Thanks for sharing . I'm always glade to see . Your Precious Grandbabys .

[@sherylmoss3223]

You are just so great. I love watching you.

[@wendysstitching4849]

Good morning! You are such a giving person. You live to cook and you always find a way to share. So sweet

[@vickidolph1581]

I love you Renee….but….I have to admit….when Gus shows up in your videos…he steals the show! 🥰🥰🥰 He is adorable!!! I love to hear him say ‘Hello Friends’!!!❤❤❤

[@MsVcraft]

I learned something today. So happy I know how to debone a chicken thigh. Love your channel

[@marilynmcclintock2974]

Very nice video. Thumbs up. Grandma Sue in central Indiana

[@peggysmith1489]

You should wear some thin gloves to go thru your freezers. Hands don't get so frozen. I use a clean pair of garden gloves with coating. Love your videos.

[@AcornHillHomestead]

OMG I thought we had alot of frozen foods! 😳 I finally organized my upright in large bins. Now my cheese, veg, fruits, meats are all sorted. At least for now. 😂. I can look at the bins and know what I need to buy or make. The chaos was driving me crazy. My mom used to make cookies for her Red Fox squirrels. LOL they would come to her kitchen screen window looking for more. Adorable. We had squirrels every morning coming on our front porch for nuts. So much fun!

[@ShelbyBunten]

All I can say is your a true hard worker with a giving heart❤️ Shelby

[@annamariekorte7259]

Took a trip to Amish store close to my home. Stocked up on bulk spices to make the mixes you suggested. I think they would make great Christmas gift in small jars. Along with a hand sewn Japanese work apron & A couple kitchen utensils.

[@JavaMomma1220]

Good Morning from cool, crisp Middle TN🍂🍁

Oooooh❤when are they gonna invent smell-a-vision 😢…😂what a cuties your grandchildren are stay blessed always ❤

[@sandraalsayyad4214]

Wow! I want to shop your freezer!! I need to can veggies and meats because I can store them on the shelf. I love your channel.❤

[@vickymyprayergarden6846]

Hi Renee !!! You're amazing ! All that good food cooked and ready to heat up and serve ! Your daughter is one lucky girl getting all that from you .. Can I be your daughter too !!😆😆 loved the video ! Thumbs up

[@cwgmama]

Omg. I am looking up your recipe right now for your jumbo peanut butter cookies. I am craving something sweet. Thank you for showing us your 2 freezers. I see a whole Lotta love you put into filling them... Rene You are amazing!!! I could watch your channel 24-7... ❤❤❤

[@libertylady64]

Hello my friend! Just found your channel and I love what you do! Thanks for all of your hard work and your advice and your yummy recipes you share with us!

[@LittleVillageHomestead]

Welcome to my channel.

[@dianneD27]

Renee you make me so happy 😃

[@kimbesore3401]

I think my hubby and I have just about as much freezer food as you do, but I don't even know what's in my freezers anymore. I think they should design a freezer with a drawer that pulls out at the bottom, so we can always use what's on the bottom (the oldest foods) first. If only....LOL! Thank you for the tutorial on how to trim the chicken thighs. Wonderful info!

[@cynthiafrance6741]

so fun thanx for sharing have a great night

[@rosemaydaley3208]

thank you sharingh i never knew about rinsing the rice great tip

[@gloriachambers3272]

Always rinse rice it has arsenic on it. This is natural occurrence so doing it is for your health.

[@onThisJourney]

You whipped up a great meal!!❤

[@lowespringacres7838]

Sometimes I can get the chicken quarters for .29 lb! Also then the bones go for stock; win win! 😊

[@313girl5]

Good morning Renee, Have a blessed day❤

[@melodyshomesteadlife]

The chicken thighs looked absolutely delicious!

[@citygirlhomestead]

that squirrel was cute though you have to admit and it was bigger than him Tom and I laughed too it was to funny I need to go thru my freezers as well went thru one last weekend need to go thru the other 2

[@phylliswilson7679]

Have you considered labeling your bags on the bottom. That way you can tell what's in them without pulling them out of the freezer

[@LittleVillageHomestead]

That is a great idea....

[@diannaross4927]

My freezers looks like yours!Hugs to you!

[@patrobosky4641]

I love watching your videos, I learn so much. I have apple canning question though

[@ClickinChicken]

your cutting board rocks and rolls like mine! it's missing a rubber foot!

[@LittleVillageHomestead]

It is missing something. Lol

[@lowespringacres7838]

Your flowers in the very first still pic sure are pretty.

[@ClickinChicken]

That is a true IDS freezer. (the IDS building is in down town Mpls). That was the code for which freezer Mom wanted me to put an item downstairs in. The other was 'chest' freezer.

[@ruawakeyet8050]

Hey Renea I have the same freezer as you have. We both have the same problem Ice is building up around the top. My repair guy said to try Vaseline on the lid edge where the rubber seal is I spread it thin. It works But the suction is strong when you open it . Hope that helps

[@meganstokely3149]

Hey Renee your grand babies are so adorable I just love watching you interact with them you are so patient I just love seeing them on camera and thank you for sharing them with all of us have a wonderful day and stay safe and bless you love always your buddy from NC Andrea

[@LeeBrockwell-gz5ly]

Hi Renee Me And My Mom Watch Everyday And Just Love You And Your Family Your Grandbabies Are Precious We Sure Wish You Were Close We Are In VA My Mom Says Gussy Boy Just Melts Her Heart ❤️ Love Ya And God Bless

[@evelynpol8014]

Wonderful job with cleaning out the freezer. Question. How do you keep the onion from stinking up the whole freezer. I double bag them but they still stink Thank you for all you do!

[@julieguenter3283]

I love your videos, Renea. There is something so sweet and calming about the way you interact with your family and viewers. Hope you have a wonderful day. ❤️

[@shodson314]

Thank you so much for showing breaking up the leg quarters as much as you did. We like boneless skinless thighs but they are way too expensive, now I am confident I can make my own! 💚💚💚

[@lindagraff2484]

My mother taught me how to cut up a chicken, she never bought chicken pieces. I too Need to get in my freezer, and get stuff out of there. I saw chicken legs and thigh pieces on sale too, I should make some freezer meals with those. The best sale I can get is $2.99lb.

[@joanczarra-jn8ov]

What a cutie pie

[@lindavanord5606]

Please tell me how you do the single servings of sweet potatoes. I just bought sweet potatoes yesterday and want to prep them for meals for my freezer and thank you

[@LittleVillageHomestead]

I cook them and mash them and use a large ice cream scoop to put them on a tray and flash freeze. I have to do more so I will include that in a video.

[@lindavanord5606]

@@LittleVillageHomestead thank you and looking forward to the video

[@debbiealtman5373]

I’m in hog heaven. I love smoked paprika on my chicken and a few other things. I try getting the smoked paprika when I can and stocking up on it. I use it a lot.

[@PinkSlippers70]

Renea...last week I was going through my upright freezer and a bag of frozen salsa fell out and landed on my toe....it broke it ! so freakin painful...all I could think watching this video was omg, something is going to fall out , I love ya, be careful

[@gretroman8235]

Have you ever made oven baked rice? When I roast chicken, I put the rice, chicken broth, and afditiobs in oven covered casserole for 30 minutes. Perfect fluffy rice. I add mushrooms and frozen peas near the end for rice pilaf. I have never used a rice cooker. Grand babies are adorable. Busy grandma cooking cook wholesome food.

[@LittleVillageHomestead]

Yes I have and rice baked in the oven is perfect everytime.

[@rebeccastaggs5623]

I love the dinner plates you eat out of. Where do you get them?

[@angelamockler6928]

I love all you videos and have often noticed how sharp your knives are without sharpening them. Can you tell me what brand they are? Thanks!

[@lowespringacres7838]

Your freezers look like mine except I have 3...apparently I really like to hoard food!

[@teresabrady4717]

How do you prepare your potato wedges for the freezer?

[@pepperderr1388]

Your grandkids are cute. How many do you have? I get chicken leg quarters and separate the leg and thigh but I never deboned a thigh. Thanks for showing me how. Have a wonderful day!

[@LittleVillageHomestead]

I have 8, but 2 live in Georgia.

[@wendysstitching4849]

I am thinking about getting a wood cutting board. Is it hard to keep it clean/ sanitized? Not sure how to clean a wooden board

[@AcornHillHomestead]

They are actually better than plastic. There are great YT videos for cleaning and seasoning them. Its easy.

[@wendysstitching4849]

@@AcornHillHomestead thanks. Will watch some videos

[@bonniemacdougall4589]

Which freezer is the best, do you think, chest or upright? Thank you. Hi from Oregon.

[@LoveMyCoffee10]

Renee, my Sunporch is not heated, however it is enclosed like yours. I live in the Northeast, I keep my purchased cans of food i.e. soups, veggies, in it. It's 20 degrees out, will the cans be safe? I'm challenged for space. Thank you, new at all this...😂

[@rosemaydaley3208]

good morning

[@michellepopulus8295]

Hi I am new to watching your videos just wondering have you made a video on making chili if not do you think you can make one and if you could make one about what you can and cannot freeze it would be greatly appreciated thank you

[@donnabradshaw5200]

How long do you think you could "live" on what's in your freezer? So many people are doing the clean out the freezer challenge. I've always wondered how long you could go with all the goods you have.

[@LittleVillageHomestead]

Oh my goodness, I would say at least a year between both freezers. Just the hubby and I that is.

[@tracylhancock8478]

None of those links took me to your Amazon store and I can't get it to come up under your channel name....how do we get to your Amazon store?

[@patriciacarson6566]

Hey Renee, I know you have a roaster oven So I Was wondering if if there was a specific reason. Why you didn't use that? TO, cook your tomatoes Down in? Can turn it down really low and cook them overnight and they won't burn. And cost less to Use then running gas stove overnight or even several hours. Just wondering I do love your channel and love what you do.. Take care, stay safe, and god bless Yaw

[@LittleVillageHomestead]

I do have a roaster oven but it is huge and I really don't have much counter space.

When you dated the chicken thighs. Thought heard you say 9/23. Watching today and its the fourteenth..maybe i was wrong .if so im sorry.

[@lindajohnson9101]

I believe she was putting the month and the year, not the date on the package. For a moment, I thought the same thing.🤷‍♀️🙂
