I am German, and hearing Scandinavians speak it is somehow the best thing ever, it is ✨spicy German✨ and i love it

I also love it😁😁

I'm German and had a long distance relationship with a guy from Arlborg actually, thanks to OkCupid :) and I loved listening to him talking on Danish

“I think the nap took me, really.” Was ICONIC. I can’t wait to use that.

[@marycharlebois6627]

A tip here from the Stitchwizard63: Balloons... maybe Jens knows this... if you’re hand sewing something that is thick, and it is difficult to grasp the needle while stitching, a balloon will increase the grip factor (friction, yah!) and allow you to pull on the needle more easily. I always keep a balloon in my sewing kit for this purpose. 🧵🪡💜

[@lekiscool]

Ooo ooo make a squishy thing with the balloons. Like flour or rice in it, for stress relief. You can use both balloons for the one squishy. Use some expired flour or baking soda.

[@gaelleg3148]

Balls to learn how to juggle ... Skillshare !

[@lauracarriero2774]

I just wanted to share that I became vegetarian yesterday (!!) And today I'm going to the store to buy some food I can actually eat to keep in the house. Dad was not pleased. Ahahahah! Love you xoxo

[@klah11]

Congrats !!! 😁

[@jenniferdouglas-craig1095]

That's amazing!! It's totally normal for parents to not be cool about it. Hope your dad comes around. He prob will in time :)

[@lauracarriero2774]

@@jenniferdouglas-craig1095 I'm sure he will! Thank you girl ❤️

[@priscillajimenez27]

I'm not vegetarian but that's cool. 🥚🥦 Yeah a daughter (6 years old) of my Mexican friend mentioned wanting to be a vegetarian/vegan and he got upset, saying Mexicans aren't vegans.

[@jasonknotts5001]

Dad was not pleased because he naturally knows what humans are supposed to eat, and it's definitely not plants.

[@woolypuffin392]

Make a Stressball out of them. Fill one with flour, knot it up, cut the "stem" from the other so the second can be pulled over the first.

[@Merciaks]

"I think the nap took me, really" 😂😂 I feel that!

[@frappuccino68]

You guys are so sweet. "The nap took me" ... my life in a nutshell, Jens, ... my life!

[@juliamoreno3219]

I love these "what I eat in a day/day in my life/week" videos you make! I re-watch them more than I'd like to admit lol do you ever think of doing another self care routine or spa day video?? I think it'd be amazing! 😄

[@Gittemary]

I am so happy to hear it! 💚 I want to do another one soon where I go over some hair care things 😍

[@juliamoreno3219]

@@Gittemary I can't wait to watch it! 😊

[@thebrainybrunette3553]

You can make a stress ball with the balloons. Fill one with sand, and tie it, wrap the other around it and tie that one. That should last for a bit with minimal use... It's an old trick from working in elementary schools. We used to do that all the time.

[@kingaczarnow]

I got so confused when you showed that you're wearing jeans. One year of quarantine and I forgot that people still wear other pants than sweatpants.

[@Offensive_Username]

Chavs worn sweatpants ages before Covid. Unfortunately. Sweatpants are a pest.

[@juliamoreno3219]

Someone probably already told you this but you can use those balloons as a lid for some of your glass jars 😊

[@psymompa]

Beautiful produce and Tulips.

[@kelderpony]

"I think the nap took me really" 😂 you guys are so cute

[@daisyw.7080]

No one: Absolutely no one; Gittemary: potaaatos (potatoes) Love you girl 😂❤️

[@annajenkins8029]

You can make stress balls with balloons filled with rice/cornstarch- not ideal but maybe a way of up cycling at least?

[@davenadainton4209]

Not sure if u have any newspaper around from your parcel deliveries but you can msje papier-mache bowls and paint and decorate them for your home as an idea x

[@aj9906]

Videos with Jens are always the ones with extra fun on top :) - now my face wants waffles too

[@ExLibris-Alys]

You could cut (slice) the balloons to make them into rubber bands for hair scrunchies etc. Love the tulips, they’re my favourite flowers 💛

[@ajatange4085]

Your hair gives me Hermione vibes!! Love it🔮🧙🏼

[@Megs2Dope]

You can use the balloons when fermenting things to regulate the bubbles.

[@audibleedibles9222]

The balloon thing confused me! But, I was thinking you could use them as food storage covering? Not sure if they are completely food safe 🤔 but like you would use silicon or beeswax wraps? Alternatively use them as “to go” storage for liquid products. I’m guessing you possibly use soap and shampoo bars but if you had a liquid form of something could be a way to store things? Just some random ideas that popped into my head. Love your videos ❤️

[@redcurlvegan]

You've inspired me actually to start my own channel, thank you so much 💚

[@mimblewimble12]

Your hair looks stunning! It's giving you mermaid vibes 🧜‍♀️

[@karinamauren6229]

My friend used left over balloons to cover open wine bottles if she did not drink them up. As I don’t drink myself I am not sure how well it worked or if it might offend someone, but she seemed satisfied with the result :) that way you can also use the balloons several times until they eventually break.

[@LilLilacc]

you can put sand or cornstarch in the balloons to make stress balls!!

[@hilaryjeb]

I just found your channel today. Loving it! I'm studying my MSc. Environmental Engineering in Scotland and I am so inspired by your videos. I've been wondering about the environmental impact of houseplants (I also don't want to know bc I love them) XX

[@madelynarihara6040]

Hello! I love your channel. I’ve been searching though your videos trying to find more tips on ways you preserve your food to help make it last longer. I saw you slice carrots and keep them in water to keep them fresh longer and was amazed! Because of the pandemic I try to go grocery shopping for one or two weeks at a time, but then I’m normally rushing to eat the food before it goes bad. If you could make a video with whatever tips you have (for example what you should or shouldn’t put in water, what should go in the fridge or stay out of the fridge) it would be really helpful! Thanks!

[@jenniferdouglas-craig1095]

I really love these vloggy, full day vids!! Thank you :) Oh and I'm def going to make that curry pasta salad, yum!!

[@neta565]

Love the curly hair! It's so cool!😀

[@walkwithtomo6708]

I love this series! I'm learning the idea of sustainable living a little by little through watching your video!🥰

[@sprinkledrainbow7251]

Maybe you could make stress balls with the balloons. Just add flour and squeeze the stress out. Also, I adore you!! Hugs ❤

[@ellidecker5088]

You could use the balloons to hold any microplastics or other small waste things when you put them in the garbage? It's not perfect but it could be helpful to keep microplastics contained

[@AD-jj3hd]

I would suggest giving the balloon to somebody that would use them anyways. I got rid of some I had from god knows when on my buy nothing group

[@jemma50]

Always fun to watch you, Gittemary! :D ♥

[@marycharlebois6627]

Amongst other things... ya just gotta love a man who helps with the dishes and a woman who rescues the single sad lonely looking beet at the farmer’s market. The waffles looked amazing... I am looking forward to seeing you make some Aebleskivers one day. This was fun and full of cool energy. Thanks and have a great day.

Waffles should look like a flower and then turn into heart shaped pieces when being pulled apart ♥ I'm German living in Scotland and been learning British Sign Language, very beautiful but also challenging to learn.

Carrots are best to store in the water in the fridge, otherwise they go soft. I once made beeswax wrap myself and after a while it started to crumble - is it the same with store bought wax wrap?

[@annamoneymaker9594]

Have you tried the overnight towel curling method? I think you’d enjoy it, it worked so well for me !

[@creaturespuppet]

I love the LikeMeat nuggets so much they are my all time favorites from all the ones I've tried. But I wonder why they have them in a paper packaging in Denmark but in Germany they sell it in a plastic packaging wrapped in paper? That's so strange to me like it doesn't make sense when they sell it elsewhere without plastic

Omg those balloons 😱 I already have a really weird feeling about Frankful. Mainly because I'm bombarded with their "We're eating taaaaacos - we love the cliiiiimate - yum yum yum" song, and it's just so cringy (and off-key - yikes), I get so annoyed whenever it plays. And I feel like this is the perfect way to NOT make people want to try your products 😐 But hey if you have some recommendations, I'd love to hear them 😘

The pea guacamole is been the number one example of europe not having good mexican food

[@Gittemary]

While it might not be as good, and like.. ofc it isn’t guac is ✨king✨ but most avos here are imported from Mexico and that comes with an incredibly high carbon footprint + the increased demand for avos in Europe have had detrimental effects on farmers’ communities in Mexico - so while it might not be as good, I think it is worth it ☺️🌿
