A bit of sugar is often used in tomato dishes because it cuts the acid taste.

[@In_Craigs_Eyes]

Matt is an amazing cook but boys those portion sizes are insane 😂❤

[@trevisyoung802]

Hope you both feel better next week. Also, feeding moldy bread to any animal is very dangerous. Even if it is a little mold, it can be very toxic esp. to small birds.

[@karenmiller1726]

If there was an award for the best Yorkshire puddings Matts would win hands down and be in the Guinness book of records!😮😊

[@tejida815]

Sometimes you guys are too hard on yourselves. It’s good that you’re not stressed. ❤your hydrangea.

[@lisatownshend7867]

Matt needs his own cooking show

[@maureen14]

Love that idea!

[@karenchambers7231]

I agree a cooking show with Matt would be great 😊

[@rhondao1]

Oh making Christmas chains. We did that with my mom every year as kids. Miss those traditions.

[@MarionTindall]

Hi Elliot and Matt the way the world is you make me so happy with your fun love the end when Matt tickles you 😀

[@FronaTressler]

Just take a day at a time and don’t fret about small things..enjoy..live..love❤

[@Charlotte-fs2gs]

I'm sorry to hear its been a tuff few weeks for you both, I can relate to that most of the time. I just wanted to say that your vlogs are nice and calming, I suffer with severe anxiety and your vlogs really help me. Have a great week 😊

[@the_oslovian]

Don't feel bad and be to hard on yourself Elliott, this sounds like most of our lives I think, work takes a lot of time and just everyday chores etc. Add children into the mix and you have 0 time for reset or similar... We are just humans we try and do our best and just go along as good as we can ❤❤

[@nonna-non]

I've seen the exact Thames video! I was born in the late 60s ... we got a walnut, a satsuma and some copper coins in our xmas stockings, and on a good year, a finger puppet or small locally made wooden, tin or felt toy! Happy days! Consumerism is mad these days ....

[@ElliotNMatt]

I loved the ladies in that video! I want more of them not modern celebs! ❤️

[@DebbieH5731]

3 bottles of wine in one night?!?!? I'm shook Matt, no wonder you needed sunglasses the next morning 😅😂😎

[@annkarpinskireddog]

You can live the life they had now just ignore the consumerism you have a beautiful life the best you two are so 🌹 lovely

[@ElliotNMatt]

So true!

[@pattytramonto3103]

Awwww, Elliot, you are such a sweet soul. You guys will be amazing dads!!

[@ElliotNMatt]

Thank you so much!

[@karenchambers7231]

O sweetheart I'm so sorry you've been in tears, I'm sending you the the biggest warm hugs

[@SonyaM7]

Goodness me Matt, your fading away!

[@ExcitedOpenings]

You're welcome, anytime. ☕️ and thanks for the vlogs, I enjoy watching. ❤

[@ElliotNMatt]

Yay! Thank you!

[@susanfritsche8587]

Excellent vlog, we need smell a vision! I love seeing Matt cook❤️ you guys need to write a cookbook, I would certainly buy it. Have a wonderful week ❤️

[@laurac8659]

I hope this week goes better! ❤ Enjoyed the video 💚💛💙🧡💜👍

[@SonyaM7]

We are in the second month of Spring here in New Zealand and we have just had floods over the weekend…. Such a wet winter that’s shown no signs of letting up yet

[@WendyDonaldson-ld1jg]

I’m sending hugs to you both! Take your time with your reset, less pressure, better chance of success!

[@BVking509]

Diets your best off doing week days and relaxing it at the weekend, a month just drags. Also making a line graph and marking it every day works. If you go full out you put it back on. Veggie smoothies kill hunger too

[@amirfamilyuk]

Hello lovely people, we love watching your channel. Love all the lovely dishes you make. Your vlogs are always uplifting and I find them extremely relaxing especially after a long day at work. We also love all the house tours you do and have inspired us soo much. Keep up lovely vlogs and stay happy and blessed always ❤😊

[@ElliotNMatt]

Thank you so much x

[@stephenjohnson7288]

We have a cat just like Rory...his name is Woody...he's a love bug! But he is also about 3 times his size!!

[@annkarpinskireddog]

Nice treat Elliot awwe happy matt❤

[@thinkathought]

In the US, "take-away" is called "take-out". "Hoops" are called "spaghetti O's". Love your videos!

[@clairegreenaway9653]

Just recently found your channel!Really enjoying it, you are both lovely 🥰

[@ElliotNMatt]

Welcome! Thank you so much x

[@displaystortford]

You should put your slabs at the end of your driveway. I’m sure someone will take them…. Reset next week, never put pressure on yourself, things will happen when they happen 😊

[@barbaramccarthy7889]

Hope you have a better week. Really enjoyed the drive in Wales. Beautiful!

[@ElliotNMatt]

Thank you! You too!

[@traceycollins8741]

Hope you feel better soon

[@RossDriscoll]

With the area behind you greenhouse instead of using weed membrane use cardboard. Save any boxes you get, removing any tape and labels, open them out and lay them on the ground overlapping. Then put the bark on top.

[@larhumba4233]

Matt wearing sunglasses in the hotel room the morning after looked like Jonny Thompson who also went to Aberystwyth University but a decade before Matt. Next year you need to ask the local bars and eateries if they remember the King's Equerry, now Aide, as a Uni student in the 2000s? 😎❤️

[@jacquiward7017]

Omg ….i am starving now I have seen this ….lol

[@annkarpinskireddog]

Love the smell of new mowed grass

[@annkarpinskireddog]

Also complete with Rory and beau❤

[@hillarygroundwell2807]

Don't be hard on yourselves and you are both looking so trim now

[@annkarpinskireddog]

Awwe bye boys❤

[@annkarpinskireddog]

Love your vids best ever ❤

[@sharpebeaton7787]

Bravo Matt!! We are all here to support you ❤🧡💛💙

[@annkarpinskireddog]

Awwe getting the last of the summer beau❤

[@emilyforster6989]

Love you guys.

[@annkarpinskireddog]

Awwe you did enjoy though❤

[@stephenjohnson7288]

Jeez...your head line makes me faint! You are such a fun couple! Not sure if Hurricane Milton is coming your way...but watch out with lots of water!!

[@annkarpinskireddog]

Awwe Rory ❤❤❤

[@maureen14]

I would think putting bark down in that area in your garden will attract a lot of bugs. I know ants especially love to hide in wood chips and mulch. Also snakes! LOL... Maybe try putting down loose stone, pea stone, or something like that? 💦

[@annkarpinskireddog]

Looks lovely elliot

[@jacquiward7017]

Aww …bless you sending big hugs xxx.

[@bellaD7]

Lovely vlog again. Matt’s Yorkshires are glorious. Please please don’t feed birds mouldy bread. It’s toxic to them. A little in date bread is fine though it is just empty calories to them. The birds that frequent my bird feeders gorge on high energy seed, meal worms, sunflower seeds and fat ball. Have been blessed with fledglings of various birds each year in present house. Our British birds are precious and in decline so am happy to spend a fortune fattening them up and seeing them through winter. 😊

[@JamesParker-g9z]

Love you guys, take care all the best and keep up the great videos 🙏

[@annkarpinskireddog]

Just ordered purdy and figg hope it's everything that you showed I know it will be

[@phineas117]

Elliot. take 1 hour a day. ONE HOUR. and that's for your drawing, or sitting in the garden. or whatever you want. ONE HOUR. the fatigue from thinking "I should be doing this" while doing something else is REAL. ad hoc quom...do what you are doing.

[@annkarpinskireddog]

Mmm Matt fabulous❤

[@maureen14]

I know you're watching your sugar, Elliot, but all those carbs turn to sugar, my dear. ♡

[@ElliotNMatt]

Thanks but its just the added bag sugars i'm counting, below 30g per day.

[@beckyherlinger7883]

Maybe pick just one thing to reset, at a time, versus a dozen? 😅❤😅 ...she wrote before hearing your very smart solution. 😊

[@ElliotNMatt]

lol

[@SonyaM7]

I’ve been using plant based cream or coconut cream in cooking recently, as we have someone staying with us who is dairy free

[@annkarpinskireddog]

Both looking diet good❤

[@jacquelinehunt7794]

We are going through rough times too at the moment it’s hard sometimes.

[@maureen14]

Elliot do you & Matt still like Yankee candles?

[@ElliotNMatt]

Oh yes! Still love them b ut they are expensive so those ones we bought were just as lovely at far less!

[@irenedavo3768]

Would never have Fridge Freezer next to oven !

[@debzhughes5270]

Be careful with the suger free sweets they can give you the trots if you eat to many just a heads up fab vlog as always ❤

[@ElliotNMatt]

Just been having one a night x

[@annkarpinskireddog]

Very fab you are so much a pair could you make a ornamental Matt and Elliot from resin😊

[@tammynash8318]

You be careful with the sugar free sweet as a diabetic I’ve tried all sugar free products and the do have side affects which are uncomfortable causes me lots of gad lol great video

[@ElliotNMatt]

Only one per night!

[@irenedavo3768]

Be careful put bread out for birds! May attract rats 🐀

[@MsFeiji]

goodness gracious, how long has the freezer been out of commission now??? Too long!!!

[@ElliotNMatt]

[@annkarpinskireddog]

It's October I hate it I get all the mishaps then

[@yvonnejane2429]

❤❤

[@annkarpinskireddog]

Maybe pot up some herbs and keep it bark

[@tracylowe9994]

Lots of sugar in naan breads, be careful with rice , chips and naan

[@lindasmith6355]

When do you prune your roses please

[@ElliotNMatt]

In U.K Jan/Feb is ideal

[@jankitteringham8483]

🥰🇬🇧

[@irenedavo3768]

Make Lamb Hot Pot all in one pan?

[@irenedavo3768]

Lamb Stew really?

[@irenedavo3768]

Your hair is long!

[@irenedavo3768]

Christmas is now all presents!

[@irenedavo3768]

Many people starving in World and no one helping!

[@anntaylor4247]

Sadly, many people in UK struggling too.​@irenedavo3768

[@AndreaWilkes-j9r]

👍👍❤❤

[@annkarpinskireddog]

What' a pic

[@clottedscrumpy49]

I had just finished watching this vlog, flipped back to KZbin, and the video you mentioned with the 3 older ladies popped up on my feed. What a coincidence! It was an enlightening half hour with a young Mary Parkinson interviewing these ladies all from different backgrounds. Yorkshire, London and Devon. I live near Exeter but on the East side. I was born in 1949 and Christmas's were similar to theirs though in the 50's and 60's. There was probably a bit more money around for labourers and other 'wage earners' but even then a chicken or Capon was usually only for the Christmas table. I can't really remember when it became an everyday food item. JennyN

[@ElliotNMatt]

Yes thats the one!
