Quick tip for those hair ties to save you having to buy new ones because they stretched out! Just put on the kettle 2 cups of water and boil it. Add your stretched out scrunchies to a heat proof cup or bowl (cover with water completely) and pour the freshly boiled water on them. Then like magic they are no longer strechted out! Just take them out with some tongs or chopstics (they'll be warm) and leave them to dry/cool on a paper towel. Once completely cooled on their own they're all set to go!🎉

Two tips that will massively up your bobby pin game if you don't already know them: 1) Put them in with the bumpy side against your head. It seems like it'll be uncomfortable, but I can't feel it at all and I have a super sensitive head. 2) Try to always put your pins in so two (or more) form an interlocking X. You should feel the second one lock into place and hold the first one. I was able to eliminate bobby pins slipping out with those two tricks. I've never tried since I haven't needed to, but I also know people who swear by spaying their bobby pins with hairspray to make them non-slip!

Hi Becky. As someone who suffered from dry and chapped lips for most of my twenties (I'm now 54), I'd like to tell you that I was using a minty lip balm for absolutely ages. I was then told (by a dermatologist) that you are not supposed to put anything minty on your lips as it dries them out and irritates more than most other items. Being Swedish, I moved to the UK in 1998 so could no longer buy my absolute favourite lip balm (which is Försvarets Hudsalva - if you can find it in the US, I'd recommend you buy it) but I am currently using Elizabeth Arden's 18H lip balm and also Nuxe Honey Lip Balm. I can see in this video that your lips are chapped and I also know that you made some minty lip balms for yourself (and also gifted some). Please try lip balms without any mint in them and see how you get on. X

I have only just discovered your channel in the last week and now I'm just binge watching 😊 I live in the UK so I sometimes have to stop watching and Google some of the things you talk about (you say cilantro and here we call it coriander and your all purpose flour is our plain flour. Then there's the measurements. You have quarts and gallons and we have pints or litres. There are many differences but I love watching you. I'm 72 years old and I love baking but have never liked cooking meals (luckily now my son is grown up with his own family so it's just me and my cat Mighty now) but watching you cooking all of your meals etc, it's inspired me to batch cook and freeze meals for myself. I absolutely love your house and your kitchen is something I dream of.

Hi Becky and everyone. I just saw a way to change maple syrup to maple butter. Very easy and increases the volume of syrup a lot, thus an economical thing to do. Just heat the syrup on the stove to 214°F. Then put the pot in an ice bath, cool down to 100°F. Using a stand mixer, whip it on high for about 25-30 minutes. It will change texture, and be very foamy, it will not change back to a pour type texture. I am sure there are lots of instructions on the internet for this, if you want to see it done first. Just an idea. I think honey butter is a good idea also.

Hey Becky, chickens often don't lay if the weather is too hot or too cold. So, maybe they're not used to your newer elevation, or their coop needs insulation? Also, my chickens are twice the ages of yours , same-ish breeds, and they still lay plenty. A lot of homesteaders call a chicken "old" at 4 or 5 years, but after raising chickens for over 50 years, they might lay less, but don't stop.

When ever I have green onions I put the leftover roots into water on my kitchen window sill and they grow great. I change the water every three days or so and trim the greens as they grow. Makes me happy to reuse

Friday dinner is a great and fun thing. In Jewish families (and it doesn't matter if they are secular or religious) this is a regular custom. Every Friday they do a special meal with lots of special dishes and different types of salads. It can be with traditional dishes for every family or try new dishes and different foods. It's really fun and I really recommend you do it. :)
