Yes!!!! It's a must on the 🍍 core and peeler! I have one but I keep it down in the Florida keys where my family spends a lot of summer months! We eat a lot of pineapple in the summer and it's the best! I always use it and it works flawless every time!

[@brendaklepper7286]

[@margaretbartlett5404]

Thank you so much for sharing your get togethers with us all. I just love watching everything you and you mom does.

[@carriem7832]

Can’t find the BBQ sauce thou.

[@Pznluv6]

I got the pineapple corer from my daughter's school fundraiser and it is great!! It makes it easier to want to eat more pineapple.

[@stuckinmopro8533]

I was married in the late ‘70’s when Post It Notes first came out and I was thrilled with them! I used them for everything but particularly for labeling which food went into which serving dish for parties and holiday dinners. To this day everybody teases me about using them but because they make planning so much easier I’ll never stop. Tell your mom that we smart ladies have always been ahead of the curve, lol!

[@heathere.6557]

I love that you make allergen friendly foods and talk so openly about it whenever you guys do get togethers! Some people make it seem so inconvenient to have to accommodate someone with allergies at parties. I love that you're helping to normalize it and show how easy it is to make sure no one is left out!

[@madgevanness4011]

Love the tip about doing the allergy free version first.

[@ilovelucytheboston]

I love it too! My Dad refuses to acknowledge sensitivities and allergies.

[@analopez-zi4gb]

I love how excited your mom was for the extra large containers! Mom goals 😂

[@robynm7221]

That's how I'd be if I was to get that gift from my hubby or family🤭😁❣

[@ami_martin]

I waited the whole video for that part after seeing your comment 😂 I remember her mentioning she wanted them in another video, and her excitement did not disappoint!

[@faith7894]

I've said this before, but I'll say it again, I just love watching content that you make with your mom and dad. I can tell how close you are with your family and I can feel the love between you all and it just warms my heart.❤ Thank you!

[@kaseybridges5184]

I dream of being as organised as your Mum is! 😀 & you two are like a well-oiled machine with the cooking! 👍 I love that your whole family comes together to celebrate 🥰 i miss that! I’m a cple thousand km away from my children,it’s hard when it’s their birthdays 😬 I hope you all enjoyed your parties! 🤗 Oh & props to your Dad for doing all the house cleaning! 😀🥰

[@margaretbartlett5404]

They are like a well oiled machine together.

[@malibu405]

Exactly and I loved that Fad came to help and little hands were welcomed to help as well... so important ❤ Grandson and Grandpa "Ice moment"

[@terrymcgreevy939]

Is it just me, but I love how Becky's mom enters the video, so happy and cheerful.

[@aspen6290]

Watching videos of you and your mom prepping and cooking together reminds me of the days long ago when I would help my mom cook and prep big dinners. I loved those days because it was our time to bond together. I’m the only girl in the family so it was just a given that I would help her. I learned so much about multi-tasking in the kitchen from her and how to season food by taste, and not by a recipe. She just knew from instinct (or maybe it was years of experience) how to time an entire huge meal to come out all at once - Something I definitely learned from her. We’re a Mexican household so time in the kitchen was a HUGE part of our life. So much was learned in mom’s tiny basement kitchen. 💕❤️ So much love always went into making every meal, just like you and your Mom! These experiences you have with your beautiful mom and family will become fond treasured memories throughout their lives. My mom is long gone (as is my dad), but when I cook, especially if I can get my daughter to help, I feel the love and presence of my mom in every taste and in every wonderful aroma that fills the house. God Bless you, your mom and your entire family and thank you for another wonderful video! 💕 P.S. your dad absolutely ROCKS!!! I love how he helps! He and your mom are an awesome couple!

[@tracystuder5910]

Your dad is AWESOME! Love how he is so willing to pitch in!

[@robynm7221]

He's the absolute best❣ I like watching him hop in & help Susan & Becky & I'm sure the rest of his family too❣ He's the bomb of a Dad❣🏆

[@rubydelack7993]

I really miss my Parents. After they and my Aunts and Uncles, Grandparents passed away things really changed. They were the glue that held the Family together! So wonderful how your parents celebrate life 🙏❤️

[@laurieschmidtke7497]

That must be the way things go.. same thing happened in my Family. Cousins moved away after their parents passed. Now I have cousins I have never met. If I won the Lottery, I would have a big party and get us altogether again!

[@SherryOram72]

The pineapple corer/slicer is a game changer! I really love all of your videos, especially with your mom. Cheers from Montreal Canada 🇨🇦🍁🤗

[@mitchellgarets9099]

I came to say the same thing - it was pretty cheap, so easy to use, and makes the best pineapple rounds! 🍍

[@sheridawn5314]

Agree!! The corer slicer is amazing 😻

[@persiusk]

I agree! Mine just broke after years of faithful service. I totally recommend getting one.

[@sB-wl4bp]

Your mum is so organised! I love that she has everything labelled and ready to go. I'm having a party tomorrow and I'm.using these tips. I'm hoping the weather holds up good here, its been nice and sunny in London ' touch wood!!

[@KathyW5]

I live north of Becky in Washington State and she must have taken all the sun available because we didn't get it up north.

[@tammyrexroad8020]

Go Dad! Way to help the ladies out!

[@beckypiel345]

I just love your mom….and I also love her tight organization skills….I thought I was organized until I watched your mom. I’m learning, thank you!!!

[@robynm7221]

I want a Mom like Susan 🙆‍♀️❣

[@Kight213]

My mom passed in 2015 at the age of 93. Seeing you hanging with and cooking with your mom, sure makes me miss my mom. Please tell your mom Happy Mothers Day for me!!!!

[@cortiz3927]

Wow, Becky and Susan, y'all are wonderful, amazing, and so energetic! Susan, I love how you are so ORGANIZED: pre-measuring all the spices, your rectangular-shaped measuring spoons, your printed timetables, your various prep zones around the kitchen with accompanying recipe and all the ingredients layed out, your hack for using a pastry cutter to cut up cooked ground meat, how you cut up the cantaloupe in your hand, how you had such forethought in buying the extra aluminum trays, and all your lovely white food display trays, plates & bowls and corresponding post-it notes. I'm impressed with how y'all are so efficient and productive with prioritizing when to cook or bake items. Becky, that's so great how your Dad was kind enough to help sweep, vacuum, and mop the floors after you and your Mom were on your feet all day cooking and baking. And, that was wonderful of him to be so creative with the butterfly cake. It's also great that your Dad and husband help clean up after the party - that shows such gratitude! I especially loved hearing y'all praying over the food - in Jesus' name! Becky, I love how you're always so upbeat, talkative, and articulate. God Bless you for sharing all your God-given skills, talents, and abilities with us.

[@elisabetlesteve5898]

I absolutely love the relationship you have with your mom. She is amazing. I wish her a happy Mother’s Day and the 4 members a happy birthday.

[@jaylenetennier6105]

I just love how your whole family pitches in. Makes it look stress-free and organized.

[@joniwasson2866]

My aunt is turning 90 next month and we will be having a pot luck and celebration. You have given me some great ideas to take. Love it when you and your precious mamma get together. I have not heard anyone talk about the galloping gormet in so long. We would watch that show all the time when I went to visit my aunt and gram. Thank you for the tips on the onion!! And what a great idea on sprinkling powder sugar. Thanks ladies.. and Happy Mothers day to you Mom.

[@momintexas4131]

I adore your mom. Your relationship is like my Watching my mom and I. Sadly my mom passed way back in 1988. I love watch you both. Give your mom an extra big hug from all of us!

[@renitahebner3084]

Oh my......I love your nephews hair❤️ It’s sad to see your sister move. My sister moved away 20 years ago and it’s been hard. Love your mom. It makes my heart happy to see you hanging out and helping your mom. Cherish these days. Tell you mom happy Mother’s Day and God bless.

[@aprildawndeasis3801]

Hi Becky, I'm from the Philippines. I just wanted to say that I'm so grateful for your videos and your silliness and your smile. I'm a great fan and I've watched since you first started your gardening videos. I almost always buy the stuff you recommend even the bel'olio olive oil lol except maybe for the ones that aren't available in our country. But anyhow, thanks for putting yourself out there and I really appreciate you. Thanks love! God bless and happy mother's day to you (tibro and orbit)

[@lisas4453]

i just love your parents and your dad, my goodness, who knows of a man who's actually willing to help let alone help clean and will actually take the broom from you to take over...I haven't met one who is willing...God Bless him!

[@AmaliaMagenCohen]

The videos with your mom are my favorites. It’s so calming to watch you two cook together.

[@yolandacooks695]

Love the gift. I remember her saying she liked yours 🤗

[@robynm7221]

Wher can you get them? Once I'm back on land I want them too❣

I just love how organized your mom is.

[@athenahiggins4569]

The view from the kitchen is BEAUTIFUL 😍

One of my favorite party punch is Gallon of Hawaiian punch a Gallon rainbow sherbet and a 2 liter of 7up. Is so good

[@debracoulter1250]

All of the food looks really good from both days. The desserts were very nice. I love how the kids cakes looked.

[@kimberlee2469]

Your mom has the most beautiful smile. That's where you get it, Becky!

[@milliefromthebronx19]

Just love when your mom is a guest in your videos.

Yay Becky video 🌺🌸🌻 Perfect present for mum !

[@wandadunaway1488]

Becky I love watching your channel, but I also love watching you and your mother together. Thanks for blessing others with your down home fun and great ideas.

[@marysmith4240]

LOVE all your videos, but I especially enjoy the ones where you undertake labors of love with your Mom! ❤️

[@marestar64]

You make preparing for a party look so fun! And you make it seem so stress free. Being organized is the key. You all have this down pat!! It was enjoyable to see your mom be so joyful of her gift.

[@MyCoastalGarden]

Food processor is a must for hummus! I also gently warm my olive oil then take it off the heat & add my fresh garlic to the oil . Elevates the hummus! Try it!

[@jomarie6860]

Your dad is using a dust mop. I love them! Best ever for wood floors.

[@chantaldutchgirl8216]

So nice to end the day with the relaxing Acre Homestead video's. I ♥️ all your video's. Happy to see your garden again. 🍅🥦🫑🍆

[@toniastownhousegarden7878]

You're momma is so sweet. I say it every time I see her. 😊

[@tiffanyfelkner8995]

I was thrilled to see that you all tried the ham roll ups! That is an oldie but a goodie. It was made for the weddings of my parents, my brother and his wife and also my wedding. We all had small weddings with just friends and family and all the food was made by family and friends. These always remind me of love and my Grandma. I can see her rolling those pickles up and telling all the stories. They are so easy to make and delicious! Thanks for taking us along for the prep and party!

[@JK-es7iz]

Your Mom is so sweet! You are very lucky to have such wonderful people in your life ❤️

[@bmbc100]

A good dip for fruit...2 blocks of cream cheese....1 large jar of marshmallow cream....mix welll and serve wirh fruit

[@TheBirjo]

I was crying in my car last night because I'm away from home and having a bad day when I saw that you had uploaded. Watching you and your mom and your family was a balm to my aching heart.

[@debbitaylor77]

I love the pineapple cutter. I don't cut tons of pineapples, but it really does make things easier. After I get it sliced, I take a knife and go down the side and make it into chunks.

[@jodiew3797]

I love that your mom has Penzeys spices. They are my favorite! I really like watching you and your mom work together! Happy Mother's Day!

[@HLS70]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BECKY'S MOM! ENJOY YOUR NEW CANISTER SET! CANT WAIT TO SEE YOU USE THEM!🥰 I so enjoy your cooking times together!!!

[@sarahwilson5381]

You and your mom are so wonderful. I always feel like I really am hanging with you. Also, the view from your mom's home is breathtaking. I wish your family many continued blessings.

[@Mrsintherainbow]

I am a professional cake baker next time put the cream cheese in first and whip it a little. Then add the heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla and beat to stiff peaks. Much easier and a better texture than folding in the cream cheese. The butterfly turned out cute!

[@heartsdreamshomestead8930]

I watched an MI gardener video today about growing ginger and he suggested using a pot with a very large width/ diameter because the ginger root grows outwards in pot not downwards

[@loldale8475]

Love love love these birthday party videos so good to watch the prep and moments of the event. Your mum's excitement at the end present was priceless.

[@Maryannandemery]

Love this so much! I don’t ever comment but you have such a good heart and I’ve been gardening and growing into the person I want to be. You have help me tremendously with that so thank you.

[@sheilaholmquist6648]

The pickles with cream cheese and ham, here in Minnesota we call that Minnesota sushi 😁😁

[@TheKellyGreen]

Yes!

[@kaydoodle9671]

ABSOLUTELY! My vote is YES for the pineapple cutter. We have been using one for about 3 years. It's great for us!

[@northtexasdude]

saw a pitcher of rosemary cucumber water in the background. Never thought to put my garden rosemary in water like that. So I just did with lemon! Thanks for the inspiration!

[@deeferry6520]

Fab video Becky, loved all the food. If you want to take the RAW taste out of onions, drizzle them with lemon juice and leave for an hour or so, it completely changes them. Thanks for sharing x

[@aoconnor5219]

I love my pineapple tool. You have to make sure you go down straight so you don't come out the side on the bottom. Huge time saver. We eat a ton of pineapple and other fruit.

[@LVT2314]

Reminds me of many gatherings, and all our cooking together as well. The years flew by, keep getting together fun fun .. everything looked delicious!

[@annabelcarter5266]

This was such a fun video! Your family is totally awesome! Your mom had so many tips and you can tell her home is a welcoming place for all. Happy birthday, Mom!

[@minovermatter]

I don't live nearby any family (they're all abroad!) so its just me, my parents, and siblings. Watching videos like these where you're prepping for family parties makes me remember travelling to see my own family, and that makes me happy! (P.S: with the hummus, about the water for the chickpeas! The name for the water is 'aquafaba' 🥰)

[@kaseybridges5184]

I don’t live near my family either,but i’m the one that’s abroad 😄 It’s tough on birthdays etc tho 🙁

[@dianecuthbertson2686]

You can use any liquid (Aquafaba) from pulses, it’s also a great substitute for egg whites, making meringues etc

[@jandegrand6189]

Hummus gets creamy in the food processor by adding some ice cubes along with the aquafaba (sp?). I sprinkle sumac on it, too, which I get at the International Market on 99th. It's a small market with some interesting food supplies. Enjoying your show.

[@silviainthislife]

Thanks for the process video, it's quite helpful. The garbanzo water is called aquafaba.

[@tiffanymengor217]

I made your meatball recipe for dinner the other day and they were amazing. My husband and kids went crazy over them

[@stellanicholas2335]

The liquid from the chickpeas is Aquafaba which has amazing qualities it is also an egg substitute for vegans. Wondered if you could number your videos because it is difficult to find the follow-on one such as these party prep ones. I love your work, you are incredible xx

[@jsmith8904]

The liquid from the canned beans is aquafaba and it also can be whisked up and used instead of egg whites. Love you videos, especially with your Mum.

[@lisamartin3346]

I’m one of the younger ones in my extended family. My aunts and uncles and even some of my cousins have passed away. I live out of state and many cousins have moved to FlorIda so there are no big family get togethers anymore. ☹️ I miss them. You are so lucky that your family is still around. The food looked great.

I have the pineapple cutter/corer and it works great! But more importantly I NEED to see the outdoor view from your parent's place! The little glimpse I saw was amazing!

You asked about the pineapple cutting tool. My wife has been using one for a couple years and it does a good job. It has a few drawbacks but for the most part it does a good job.

[@anidaralopez5676]

Yes, I have one of those pineapple cutter/corer. It's great if the pineapple core is straight and even throughout the pineapple. The least bit off or curved and it's not so easy. Just watch that the pineapple you buy isn't shaped weird.

[@courtneybernard1153]

Love your moms reaction at the end! So sweet :)

[@pattybedolla5610]

The slicer your talking about is wonderful and works great

[@coolgirls4855]

🇮🇪Was waiting for the 2nd part. Really enjoy your videos, love to you and your Mom ♥️🇮🇪

[@sefm87]

I didn’t catch if you used canned or dried chickpeas for your hummus. It’s an extra step, but I find the texture of hummus from dried chickpeas is better and smoother than when you use canned chickpeas. (I use Alton Brown’s Slow Cooker Chickpeas recipe to prep the beans.) If you typically use canned, some day when you have a little time to experiment, you might try the dried and see if you think so too!

[@MommaLousKitchen]

I can't stand water, but I'll do cucumber/lemon or add rosemary too and it's great, especially after yardwork.
