You could always stick bananas in the freezer for smoothies (if there’s space), that way, no need for ice cubes. Unpeeled, Chop it up in a container,freeze it overnight or couple of hours. Also great for making ice cream or a smoothie bowl 😊

I have got to say after a night of staying awake with adrenaline from all the storms in Texas. I live in Kentucky but my husband had to travel to Texas yesterday that's put him right in the middle of all of those tornadoes. I stayed awake and watch from home for tornadoes that would come near him to warn him. He finally got a hotel I let him sleep while I watched for tornadoes and if one was in his vicinity I would call that was our emergency action plan. Not a very good one I must say because there were tornadoes everywhere last night in East Texas. My husband is safe and I set down finally after a long night and watched your video to unwind and had an adrenaline dump. I got to say this video was the most relaxing thing have ever watched in my life. I watch you guys every Monday.

Love you guys!!!! Thank you for hooking me up with AG! As a single mother of two, winegrowing farmer & sailor, I wanted to return the favor. “Desert Essence Relief Spray” is my answer to all skin irritations, burns, bites, dry skin and relief for so many other things! I buy a dozen at a time always having a bottle in every place be it the boat, tractor, truck or purse(always an extra to give away as well). If you can spray a bite once it occurs, keep from scratching it for 10-20 minutes, you will forget it even happened & no bite will appear. I hope you can find some for your family because it’s been my miracle spray raising two munchkins now teenagers be it land or water. Now for a natural repellent we use (even as deodorant) dōTERRA TerraShield outdoor blend is the best. We spray our ankles, shoes, jackets, hats or vulnerable exposed skin when out in the thick of it. Biggest lesson is coconut oil after bathing it helps keep skin well nourished so it’s harder for insects to bite moisturized vs dry skin. Last but not least, GARLIC is your best friend! The more you eat the less likely the little buggers think your a meal. PH & blood type seems to be the way insects see us humans as delicious. Hope this mommy wisdom helps your family as it has saved mine❤️⛵️🏴‍☠️ Cheers & Fair Winds

Look. I totally get what you're saying but the whole "driving your car is more dangerous" thing is bogus. I mean....apples to oranges. Driving your car is more dangerous because of the number of interaction you have with other drivers and the number of times you drive. Just because as a human you're less likely to get bitten by a shark isn't a worthwhile statistic because the average human doesn't interact with nearly as many sharks as they do cars. It's like someone saying that the Moon is a safer place to live because it has a lower mortality and crime rate.

[@dadadit]

Not sure baiting sharks is a good idea. I believe in 2018 a young girl was killed by sharks while swimming with her parents, in the Bahamas. Teaching sharks to come to your boat for food could put your children in danger. Swimming with sharks, I get it, baiting sharks? Nope. up north we don't bait Bears for the same reason. And by the way, nurse sharks are harmless, there are some much more aggressive sharks in the Bahamas.

[@eternaltidesphoto]

As a marine biologist, can confirm, baiting/feeding sharks alters their behavior. Altering animal behavior has negative consequences that last for generations. Plenty of research on this subject. With such a large youtube following, it's sad to condone this behavior.

[@KhouryNatalie]

Agree, very sad to see the shark baiting. I wonder if they would put candy in a bucket or on a string for Lenny? It’s also teasing them, I think it’s cruel.

Please help me understand. I had a friend who lost his eight year old boy to sharks while swimming off their sailboat, and I've read and heard of numerous shark attacks on swimmers and surfers for years. Why do you risk your sons life this way. It seems to me it's about the law of averages which supports your bravery, but it takes but one freak accurence to shift forever ones response to the temperament of sharks . You know there are plenty who feel as you about their wild pets who've attacked them or their friends.

[@jerrybow8779]

There are only a few species of sharks that are capable of killing a human, 99% of shark attacks are mistaken identity. I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t wouldn’t be swimming with great whites, bull sharks or hammerheads around
