Is it just me or do y’all love the cooking with Laura

[@Bamboo4U2]

Not really. I'm cutting her some (well-deserved) slack because she's carrying around a kindergartner. I subscribed for gardening, which is her area of expertise, not cooking, but she did add in that greens arrangement so, meh. Okay. Winter, gardening, tough topic. I get it, but the cooking thing? Nah, plenty of other cooking channels out there.

[@JuanGonzalez-lc4xx]

Your rude your literally over exaggerating but like I said there’s other more gardening videos bye !

[@katedorman7042]

@@Bamboo4U2 , I actually agree with you. What I DO like is seeing Laura and her family just being a family in their home, which includes meals. Kindergartener made me laugh out loud.

[@GardenMinistry.]

@@Bamboo4U2 As a newbie gardener (and chef) I like to see ideas on what to do with my veggies once they're harvested. This is a special skill to share, and I think it brings everything into perspective. Laura has some great ideas, like when she harvested rhubarb and made a dish with it, I never knew what it was for until that video. Now I'm more inclined to give growing rhubarb a try. So for some of us it's actually quite helpful!

[@marilynbentley8015]

I absolutely love her cooking videos! I'll take more of them until the season starts up again! Oh, and when ever she wants to in the summer also!! If people don't want to watch cooking she makes it very clear what her videos are about. I suppose a person could consider just not watching it????🤔

[@brief402]

If you ever find yourself not using all of your tomato paste before it goes bad, a trick I learned a few years ago: you can actually take all the tomato paste in the can, seperate into tablespoon portions on a baking sheet and FREEZE. Pop them in a bag when all frozen, then you can pop them in any recipe you need and they are already portioned!

[@susandermond9254]

I needed that idea!

[@Gigi-fv9ky]

That would also work for the leftover coconut milk and chicken stock, too. 🙂

[@jenniferwalsh6568]

Omg! Thank you 😊

[@caroleprete2367]

What a great idea! I can’t wait to try it.

[@barbw.7183]

Or just buy tomato paste in a tube.

[@coolrn1967]

Am I the only one who would’ve thrown in that last piece of butternut? Lol. Looks so yummy.

[@deb9024]

Your mom has such a beautiful smile 😊 🌺🌸

[@claytoncomeaux414]

Mom's positive attitude about everything always welcome moments.

[@Gigi-fv9ky]

Laura's mom always makes me happy whenever she makes an appearance. I can only imagine what a blessing she is to her family and an amazing role model for everyone she comes into contact with. She should have her own YT channel, or, at least make frequent appearances here while Laura recovers from birth.

[@deniseb2571]

"Mom said yes!" 🥰

You are hands on Girl...,due date is around the corner and you are active. Good on you! Enjoy watching your videos, esp when the whole household are in it! Keep healthy and safe.

[@vedajanbaker8518]

Oh goodness, Benjamin is so adorable! Thanks for continuing to film and allowing us to be a part of your family. I know it is so difficult but even two weeks away you keep plugging away. Thank you!

[@danielleshakeshaft6008]

I love Aarons face when she mentions how many plants there are at the garden center. Thats the same face my husband gives me when I say I'm just going to look at some plants lol.

[@ccee7184]

I am glad someone else noticed his face (and raised eyebrows). He didn't need to say a word!! " )

[@heathermireillekoester7856]

I loved the "behind the scenes" shot of the plant arranging aftermath. Keeps it real. Thank you for not having to maintain a perfect facade.

[@acerone10]

Open the kitchen door and with the leaf blower, blow the debris out the door. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jetfuelgirl]

Im shocked! Shocked at how much energy she has this late in the pregnancy, I remember not being able to stand for more than 15 mins. She is just amazing! When I grow up I want to be her.

[@kellys5315]

She's pretty active regularly, so I think that helps her be able to keep it up to a somewhat normal level even this late in her pregnancy. Compared to her usual tasks/activities she is way slowed down right now, but that's still more than most of us are used to.

[@lorrainecourtney4589]

Right? 😄😄😄

[@NoOneHere2Day]

It's a 23 min edited video. She's probably resting the rest of the day.

[@kathytaylor9798]

I made a similar remark above!

[@wendyrossman3756]

Love Aaron’s look when Laura says “ There’s so many plants in here”.

[@dryb3301]

This is the PERFECT channel for me. Gardening, cooking ( specially pasta ) and cats who are crazy. (Sigh with contentment )

"so that people don't stress out." 😂😂😂 We people do stress out waaaaaaay too much! I enjoy seeing your "cooking with the veggies you grow" videos SO much! Love!!! 💓💓💓

[@haileywright7967]

You and Aaron are raising Benjamin to be such a sweet and respectful little boy. The way Aaron had Benjamin wait for your permission to eat the M&Ms was adorable.

I just finished my breakfast and all I can think about is changing my grocery list so I can make that pasta dish ASAP!

[@carolbeatty2468]

What a yummy coffee with Laura video!! So fun to also see Aaron, Benjamin, Grandpa and Grandma as well an amazing peek at the Garden Center. That looked like an awesome recipe and it will be fun to try it. Beautiful arrangement as well and thank you for continuing to inspire us!!

[@Yrutnec1]

That "Benjamin" is so stinking cute! When he said: "Mommie said YES!!!" I wanted to just cry with JOY! To add to the cuteness --- when he wanted "To Share" the good news with Daddy! Totally awesome! I had a question on the Pasta dish....but forgot it as I went back to watch Benjamin again. Never mind! LOL.

[@SisterShirley]

Benjamin is such a sweet boy. He gets a treat but knows there are conditions until he gets to open the bag; has to ask Mommy's permission He has patience; not opening the M&M's until he asks Mommy Shares his joy with Daddy Knows something belongs in the garbage and not on the floor. What a beautiful reflection of his parents love; teaching their son how to grow up to be a wonderful person What a lovely family!

[@joaniekmiller]

Glad she went simple on those arrangements....LOL. You crack me up Laura.. Your energy is amazing.

Is anyone else looking at the placement of the table and knowing there is a toddler running around, thinking "oh my word" when will that all come crashing down?! I would bump into it myself at every pass!

[@raeperonneau4941]

My first thought was that I would run into it multiple times a day. Lol. Grace is not my middle name. 😜

[@latte1020]

lol I was thinking of that was in our home growing up my brothers would end up with stitches running into that! And me! I’m a klutz I’d be smacking my hand against it constantly 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@MsOceanRiver]

Yes, thinking oh his poor little forehead the first time he bashes into it.

[@karendixon401]

I'm deciding not to stress over it.. it is pretty weighty and would take a lot to make it come crashing down.

Aaron’s face when you mentioned how many houseplant possibilities! 😂 That’s definitely the face my husband gives me any time I have houseplants in my sight! I can not resist houseplants!! 😂🤦🏼‍♀️🤣 That pasta looks amazing! Thank you for sharing, even the aftermath of that cute table! Please do another houseplant tour, I really need to take a Saturday and drive up there to get some plants!

Hi Laura! The Creamy Butternut Squash Pasta looks delicious! I went on the site and copied and pasted it into Word and added it to my recipes from your channel The table you got is gorgeous! It fit so perfectly and the blue and white pottery with the arrangements in them are beautiful! I'm glad you didn't add anything to the finger jar. They have a personality all their own. Thank you so much for sharing! And, always good seeing Aaron, Benjamin, Cheddar, Russel and the girls!

Hi Laura, just a couple of cooking tips for you from an old lady family chef😂if you place your cutting board on a damp kitchen towel it won’t slip around on the countertop and you can save on waste by using tomato paste in the tube instead of trying to save a partially used can of tomatoes paste and forgetting it’s in your fridge. I always keep a couple of cans in the pantry incase I need a larger amount for a recipe and I always keep a tube in the fridge and one in the pantry for backup, very easy to use. I love this recipe thank you so much I have allot of squash to use up so I’m always looking for new recipes. Also…..love your site and you and your beautiful family🥰🥰🥰🙏🏻🙏🏻
