Homemade Chapstick, Beef Roast and Marzipan on a Wood Cookstove

[@jenfa582]

I loved the memory of your Dad! ❤ My Dad passed away 15 years ago and I also do things, that remind me so much of him! 😊

[@mumsie2739]

❤🙏❤ Thankful you are beginning to recover, Chelsea! I've had pneumonia...have never been so sick for so long! The recovery is slow so please rest when needed.

[@marykoufalis7666]

When I got pneumonia I was out for a full month.. It was a long recovery back to health.

[@Margo5050]

Yes. Go rest. We will still be here.

[@jo-annjewett198]

I have had a skin care business for 12 years. This morning I made about 55 chapsticks (5 different colors and flavors). It it my own recipe I developed.

[@79PoisonBreaker]

Always a good day when I see Martha at work .

[@m.rebeccabyrd739]

Bless your heart, even with recovering from pneumonia, you've still got great energy. I wish you could can some and send it to me, lol. I'm glad you're on the road to recovery -keep it up! ❤

[@RobinMarconeCassidyRN]

Feel better Chelsea! Seeing alot of it here in the states in our Emergency Room where I work. My daughter who is also a nurse is just getting over viral pneumonia and your right, recovery takes awhile. Thanks for another great video! 💓

[@melissafields3376]

So wonderful to see you getting better. Take it easy, don't rush. We will still be here ❤! Sending many blessings to you and your family.

[@annmariemitchell2532]

So glad you are on the mend. Your marzipan squares remind me of cherry Bakewell cake. My great aunt made this a lot she used ground almonds instead of rice flour. Thanks for giving me a memory of my great aunt. X

[@shawnrecore6515]

It is so nice to see you back. To say the least, I've missed you. Please continue doing what you are, resting and taking care of yourself. Sp good to see you 😊

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Thank you so much!

[@johnensminger7675]

Glad you are feeling better enough to get back to the kitchen! 😊 Thanks for sharing your life with us and your family and ideas..as usual!

[@LanaiDebbie]

So glad you are on the road to full recovery! Continue to do just what you are doing…rest well!

[@deno.520]

Wow! I never knew how simple it was to make chapstick!

[@teeshebas2478]

Give yourself a lot of grace when recovering from pneumonia… I always find it takes me a good 6 weeks to get my full energy back after a bout. Your roast seasonings are similar to a mix that Kardea Brown makes. Hers is equal parts garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. I always make a big batch and store it so I just have to grab one container for seasoning my meats. ❤

[@kaybusby7507]

Great to see that you are feeling better. Chapstick looks wonderful and easy. Thank you for sharing. Rest and enjoy your supper

[@Chickens0825]

It's always a blessing to have you share your knowledge and wisdom with us all! Praying for healing from your ammonia!

[@leafgreen9099]

Glad you are recovering. This is a hard time of the year to get sick with all the preparations for festivities - and you don't get sick pay, doing youtube! I wish you well and thank you for continuing to provide us interesting videos all the while.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Thank you for commenting on that. KZbin is wonderful in so many ways, but the channel sure does take a hit when we don't post all the time.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

I love the chapstick idea, Chelsea! Thanks for sharing how to do it. I’m glad you are listening to your body and resting a lot, everyone wants you to get well. Love and hugs from down here in Idaho! ❤

[@camicri4263]

So happy you are better! Praise God! Take care! Blessings!

[@KAStodgell]

You look good after being so sick. Loved this episode. I really like the lip balm. Glad to hear you are listening to your body. Great roll model.

[@cindyupton7357]

So glad to see you feeling better.

[@iartistdotme]

I missed you and your sweet smiling face - so glad you are feeling better and up to doing some things. These were all fun projects that I need to rewatch to determine what one to do first. Probably the dessert!

[@candacebradley7335]

Pneumonia is bad took me a couple months to recover had an awful cough. Becky from ‘Acre Homestead’ is recovering from pneumonia also. Glad you are on the mend Chelsea.

[@TeresaStuart-l5e]

I'm just finally feeling slightly better after getting pneumonia myself. My Dr. said it's the year for pneumonia. They're calling it walking pneumonia🤒😷 I had to get an inhaler. 😷 Rest up 😊

[@crystalolson4497]

I ordered your cookbook and can't wait to receive it to try and make some new recipes...thank you for all you do

[@Ni8390ki]

Glad to hear you are starting to feel better. I am also recovering from pneumonia and agree that the recovery is unlike anything I have experienced before with colds. ❤

[@charoletteyanos5825]

Love the ChapStick idea. Thanks for showing us how to make it.

[@GrowCookPreserveWithKellyDawn]

It's good to see your smile, friend. I'm glad you're feeling better.

[@janeweldon8874]

I’m glad you are feeling better. Slow and easy does it I have also had pneumonia and it does take a long time. ❤

[@user-de6em7rg5f]

good to see you today prayers for a healing God Bless!!

[@leopardwoman38]

When Ihad pneumonia, it took a long time to recover even after the antibiotic. A friend told me about an herb called Yerba Santa. After I took the herb in capsule form, it cleared up my lungs really fast. I keep it on hand now so if I feel like a cold is moving down to my lungs I can stop it before it gets there. Glad you are feeling better. 😀💕🌸

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Thanks for the tip! I'll look into that.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

I wonder if oil of oregano would also help? It’s a strong herbal antibiotic.

[@samueladams389]

Tip, i have been using an old coffee grinder (the one you crank by hand with the crank on top) to grind my pepper instead of a mill. Much faster and less effort. works great and easy to adjust from fine to coarse.

[@PatriotLynnieLou]

Thank you for the chapstick recipe as we need it in our winter months as well. Glad to see you back and that you’re on the mend. Keep resting up and praying you’re 100% soon. ❤️🙏❤️

[@garden_pink]

I'm So glad to see you feeling better. Sending many blessings to you and your family.

[@karenfaber4025]

Ive had pneumonia so many times, hate it! Feel better soon!

[@patriotsweetie]

Chelsea I’m so glad you are recovering. Will you share which company you got your chap stick kit from here in the states. Thank you so much for sharing. Have a safe and Bless week.❤

[@brianandtamiolson2330]

You sound and look soooooo much better. You are such a beautiful soul❤️

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. ❤

[@annb6532]

You look and sound so much better! I’ve had pneumonia multiple times and recovery is not fast. Thank you for always sharing your real life❤

[@SpaceLanderGirl]

It nice how you associate that treat with your dad so you think of him every year while you make it. Hope you feel better soon.

[@lynsmith2698]

Wow Chelsea…..you got a ton done in a short time. Glad you are taking things easy. You are so blessed to have a family who looks after you and themselves. Take care friend 🇨🇦❄️🌷

[@cathykillion6544]

Thank you for posting. Praying for complete healing. 🙏

[@DebYoung63]

Glad to see you and praying for your recovery ❤.

[@jo-annjewett198]

I have had a skin care business for 12 years. This morning I made about 55 chapsticks (5 different colors and flavors). It it my own recipe I developed. I love homemade chapstick. I use the same brand of tubes. You sound like you are feeling better❤ I always cook my roasts frozen too. Just onions on the bottom and then garlic salt, pepper and a bit of water on the bottom. Low and slow!!

[@Basswife26]

I just asked Chelsea, but maybe you can help… I’m allergic to coconut, what can I use instead of it? Or can I skip it?

[@cynthiafisher9907]

Maybe tallow? Hi AC! We’ve been missing you on J&Z on Saturday nights.

[@JuliaCarr-t5j]

Glad you’re on the mend

[@jolinbarilla2229]

It was wonderful seeing you today. I'm glad you are resting 💓

[@sandrad682]

Sorry you've been sick. Seems like people are getting pneumonia a lot this year. Do take care of yourself and rest. We like seeing you but we like seeing you healthy more.🌼

[@tanyapayzant5261]

So glad you are on the mend. I haven’t had marzipan squares in YEARS. I’m definitely going to make them this yr. ❤️🇨🇦

[@cindyparker9920]

So thankful you are feeling better. Do what they tell you. I’m like you and didn’t slow down and ended up in the hospital.

[@PeggyKeilitz]

Glad you are on the mend. The healing process is so frustrating because all you want to do is make up for lost time (bad idea). I had RSV Pneumonia for 4 weeks and started my healing by going out in my garden where I live 10 months out of the year here is AZ. All I could manage was 10 minutes at a time on my feet, sit down 15 for maybe 2 hour intervals twice a day. I was determined to increase this time as I went along, by the end of the week, I was 15 minutes busy work, sit for 15 still 2 hour intervals twice a day. I am 70 and was slow going so took me 4 months to get back to normal. Probably would have been sooner but I kept pushing beyond what I should have done. Point being, listen to your body if it says "I'm tired" then go rest. I kept telling myself hush, just 10 more minutes and regretted it the next day. That was 3 years ago and I am back to my old gardener self.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

It is so frustrating to want to do more when you don't have the energy.

[@Susan-n3o3e]

Another great video. I’m glad you’re feeling better but I hope you get all better. I had pneumonia several years ago it took me a long time to get over it long time. I didn’t have no energy for a long time but I hope you’re better.🙏❤🙏

[@LittleMountainRanch]

It’s really an awful illness.

[@cathyclark-p3w]

Thank you for sharing 😊 take care and rest well.

[@jeanbrooks1617]

Wonderful to see you looking so lovely. Love the chapstick demo. Jean Colorado USA

All of my favorite KZbin ladies have had pneumonia this season! You poor things! Glad you are feeling better.

[@sarahshaw1598]

Hope you feel better

[@carolinelarkin1923]

I hope you feel better soon. As a Brit, I think the marzipan squares you made is the same/similar to a Bakewell Tart here in the UK

[@lindastrous5243]

Thanks, feel better

[@SoItUp]

Glad to see your feeling better! 🎄

[@theresamoshier1768]

It is working now

[@inspiredclips8245]

Thank you!!!

[@4677-l5l]

Please be careful. A sister has double pneumonia and she watches you from another state. These look easy enough to make so I am thankful for your showing how it is done!

[@francelanoue1292]

Take good care of you! Get some rest! ❤❤😊

[@susaninthehouse768]

When i had pneumonia, the thing that helped me was eating 3 meals a day plus 3 healthy snacks that had good protein.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

Thanks for the tip!

[@elizabethlink3993]

💚Blessings for a continuing recovery, Chelsea. I'm wondering what kind of roast that was? Your Marzipan dessert sound's so delicious, what a lovely memory of your Dad. Curious as to why you rarely use a spatula to scrape your bowls🤔? I'd want every bit of that raspberry jam! 💚

[@LittleMountainRanch]

I just use whatever I already have dirty instead of dirtying another dish. Inside Round.

[@SharonHenscheid]

Get well 🙏.

[@jdman-ohio]

Chelsea I hope you feel better soon. Another great video and that roast i am sure was great. PS. your beautiful even when your under the weather.

[@DavidSmith-bw3bk]

You are right, pneumonia takes its toll on the body. I had pneumonia in 2023; I well recall how exhausted I was. I was drawn to lying down during the day. I am very active from predawn to nighttime. I make my lip balm, but would like to make the chapstick. Lee

[@janisgriffin7278]

I have had Pneumonia before and know it took me three months to totally recover so please please take good care of yourself and rest🙏🏼💙♥️❣️♥️

[@LittleMountainRanch]

I could see that. I was flat on my back most of today after just a little work. Terribly frustrating.

[@monikajarsch7766]

I made the same experience and developed a special tactic during the first days and sometimes weeks after a severe illness: do some work for half an hour, then rest for half an hour. When feeling stronger, one can always adjust the intervalls. 🙋

[@dawnrodney7032]

I am so happy to see you are feeling better! Can I ask what is cow butter, is that regular butter???

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Just regular butter

[@heatherreeves4766]

I hope you feel better, In England, we call that bakewell tart .

[@SandraMurray-h3p]

Glad you are better. Pneumonia is a tough one. Rest will help....your body will tell you

[@leanncoleman912]

Love your content. I so happened put a roast in oven. I cook mine on both sides in a skillet & put it in oven with half of water in it. Never heard of putting french onion soup in it. Do you have a video of the canning of French onion soup. Ty

[@hangingwiththeholts3804]

Here is her french onion video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/roi1nJSPba6gi9E

[@melissadimoush8196]

So fun to see you and your projects, but that seems like a lot! Hope you’re not pushing it too hard. A long nap is next. 😊

[@jennifermartin5066]

So good to see your smiling face and know that you are on the mend. Wise woman you are to keep things in the slow upward direction, as you continue to recover. Continuing to pray for a full recovery.

[@NancyHowlett]

I enjoyed seeing you back in your kitchen but, take it from me don’t rush it you need your rest, it took me months to recover from pneumonia… at least you will be back to normal by Christmas 🎄

[@susanbell2771]

Glad to see you up and about, but do look after yourself,

[@09echols]

Both you and Becky have been sick lately. I hope you both take the time your body needs to completely heal

[@SuperSunqueen]

Look into mullein teas or drops. Clears your lungs up. 2:09

❤❤❤

[@Basswife26]

Hi Chelsea! For the chapstick - any suggestions on what to use instead of coconut oil due to an allergy? Thank you for the awesome video and Merry Christmas!!

[@LittleMountainRanch]

You could use another oil, but you may need to add a little more wax to help it set up.

[@Basswife26]

@@LittleMountainRanch Thank you so much!!

[@moniquegerken182]

Is there a recipe for the pastry portion somewhere? Thanks!

[@LittleMountainRanch]

The tenderflake recipe which you can find online.

[@zoec3527]

Glad your feeling better😊. Weird, I believe Becky on Acre Homestead had pneumonia as well?

[@cynthiagoodell7842]

Chapstick recipe, please! Didn’t see or hear it anywhere in the video. Thanks so much!

[@LittleMountainRanch]

It’s about half way through the video and in the show notes. 😊

[@JoyfullyOrangeDeborah]

I did not see the chap stick recipe in the notes so I wrote it out of the video. My question is how many drops of essential oils (I use doTerra which are tested safe for consumption) would you use in a single batch? I watched this and subscribed. Many Blessings to you from Deborah in West Virginia! Edit: It was not labeled as the lip balm but i followed the wellnessmama link and that answered my essential oil question.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Around 20

[@CocoaBeans1919]

[@lisaburns235]

Your marzipan bars are very very similar to a bakewell tart in the uk.

[@CrazyCrafter-le9ge]

Get well. Rest.

[@KathyKincaid-t5h]

Could you post the recipe for your chapstick? I am so glad you are recovering.❤

[@LittleMountainRanch]

It’s in the show notes just below the video.

[@sandrasykes3026]

Icing sugar…is that the same as “our”(USA) confectioners sugar?

[@LittleMountainRanch]

it is.

[@sheld4491]

How long do the chapsticks last?

[@LittleMountainRanch]

As long as it takes to use one up at our house.

[@SauerPatchGardening]

Pneumonia really takes it out of you. I've had it twice. Many years apart thankfully, but, most recently in October, I don't want it again..that's for sure. Take really good care of yourself ❤

[@LittleMountainRanch]

It really is just awful.

[@BrendaHewitt-y1w]

❤❤

[@radmilamiljanic5977]

Do take care, please:)))

[@cinm9565]

Flavorings in lip balms encourage lip licking, which is very drying….so your instinct is correct.

[@Margo5050]

Chelsea, be careful. Years ago my husband was horribly sick with pneumonia. AFTER he RECOVERED the doctor told him you are more likely to be sick (immune system down) in the next six months than you would otherwise. Xmas or not NOW is the time to let your body repair itself. My father in law was a laborer and one physically tough guy. He said the one thing he couldn’t “beat” was sleep. Xmas season or not let some of the traditions go this year so you’ll be here for them in the future. My mom was in the hospital at Xmas for surgery and they let her come home a little early on the 23rd for the holidays. I was about 12. Of course my dad was around but I put up the tree, the manger, the window decorations, etc. Let your kids show THEMSELVES they can take over for this one year. Take it easy now not after the holiday. Your body needs to repair itself.
