We love you and your wonderful videos! Your dinner looked so delicious 😋 ❤

[@thebutterfly1356]

I read a comment from a lady who posted on your last video, wgen you got your new ipad. She said she could no longer relate to you or your content because you buy things and go out to lunch!! I thought that was really unfair. I cannot relate to you at all. Im 54, single, no children. Im vegan and dont live in Japan BUT i really enjoy watching your videos. I watch a few youtubers from Japan. I find it fascinating how you live. Cooking everything from scratch. Making so many dishes from scratch. Hiw much detail you put into everything you do. I am planning on visiting japan next year (from the UK). Im glad you can have nice lunches with your husband and get nice treats.. Times are tough for lots of people at the moment but we shouldn't be envious of other people. You work hard on your videos. I cant wait to do some shopping when i get to Japan. All the little dishes you show are adorable. I especially love the Crane dish from New Years Eve stuff. I hope they sell them all year so i can get ine 😃😃😃 Best wishes from Tracy 💚💚💚

[@donia1]

❤❤❤ that's very kind of you. People are people and no one can please everyone. I don't relate to alot of this myself but it's incredibly interesting and teaches me about the culture.

[@dolivier]

Linna please don’t listen to the hateful people who say things behind their keyboard, we love your videos and I’m happy to see Apple stuff. Love Apple 🍎 Diane from Rhode Island USA ❤😊

[@livingwithjoy89]

They are my favourite chocolates too Linna! I hope the boys like them.

[@Violet_crymes]

Thank you again for sharing your life and family with us! Don’t let the negative people get to you. ❤

[@lauriestill7749]

Thank you for a great, relaxing video to help me start my day. Your videos are a great way to motivate me to do all the mom things that are ahead for me to do today.😁

[@LinnainJapan]

Salute to all mommies 💪🥰

[@andersonomo597]

*LINA* @3:40 - those cream-colored silicon spatulas are my absolute favorite, especially the small size. So handy to get every last bit out of a bowl or pot or jar, you can stir a sauce or roll an omelet without damaging non-stick pans, they're one piece so very hygienic, flat and small so they don't take up much space. I have several and they're the tool I use more than any other - got mine at Daiso here too! Cheers from Oz!

[@morganwalters4709]

I so look forward to Wednesday and Saturday when I know a new video will go up. Because of you I have been inspired to be more thoughtful of my kitchen and what goes in and comes out. I find myself taking a breath each day and sitting down for a moment to regroup, make a list or just take in a deep breath to center myself to finish out my day strong. Your family is incredibly lucky to have you!❤️

[@LinnainJapan]

I am so glad to know that! Taking a breath at the end of the day really helps a lot! No one give us holiday, so we have to get it ourselves 😆

[@anniekinsmishkamouse7575]

So glad you are continuing to vlog. I especially like Kaldi. I love shops like that. I tried the chicken dish using local citrus marmalade and a bit of sweet spicy chili tai sauce instead of spicy hot chili. Dad and I cannot take the heat like you.. lol The marmalade was a bit tart from the citrus rinds and balanced with the other ingredients. Thanks so much for sharing the recipe. Edit- oh I will use the mango jam when I make it for just myself!

[@LinnainJapan]

Nice substitution! Thank you for letting me now ❤️

[@kerryquinn6218]

Thank you for your video, I am so happy to see that you are continuing with your productions. Best wishes from Northern Ireland.

Thank you for your videos, we've currently got a storm in the UK and the wind is frightening but your videos are helping me to keep calm ❤

[@davidbarnett9312]

You decided hubby needed to go on a diet. lol. You have a wonderful sense of humor. Thank you for another episode in the life of your family. It is my contention that the wife is the glue that holds the family together. Wherever the wife is is home. You are an excellent role model. Keep up the good work and the great episodes. To me, they are very peaceful.

[@LinnainJapan]

Thank you ❤️ I can totally agree 🥰

Thank you for your videos Linna. They are helping me so much with my current stay in hospital due to an autoimmune illness. I love seeing your videos come up in my notifications. Much love from a friend in the uk 🇬🇧 ❤

I am so sorry to know that you are in the hospital 🥲 I hope you will stay strong and get through it 💪 praying for you ❤️

Get well soon. X

[@JQuaylin]

It's amazing how different our packaging is from yours to ours here in Australia. We have bags of carrots but they are quite thin and maybe 8 or 10 in a bag, potatoes are in bags usually of maybe 20-25 depending on the type and you can buy some loose for individual purchase. Also we have loose apples(pay by the kg) and or bags of apples maybe 8-10 in each bag. You seem to be a bit more appreciative of a perfect apple or pear there and I think when sold with such care people do value them more..much less waste..I also value the way your meat is prepared and sold, so efficient and looks good. Australia is great but we are not very smart with the produce side of things.❤

[@donia1]

Same in the USA and the prices are wonderful where she lives. USA waste so much and It's hard to get good produce and to find it is costly if you do, even the farmer market in the summer

[@LynnHewitt]

Hi Linna, ive never commented on one of your videos before but i just wanted to let you know how much I look forward to and enjoy watching them. I've especially enjoyed the ones where you mention that you decided your hubby needed to go on a diet 😂 you are so funny. Love and best wishes from your friend in Northern Ireland ❤

[@LinnainJapan]

Haha 😆 but I am serious! It is for his health 👍😎

[@lauriewoldman2842]

I always enjoy watching you cook, I have dishes I plan to make someday soon. Thank you Linna for another relaxing video

[@user-xh5wx2nk1b]

The price of the Romaine lettuce was unbelievable. And. It was a large head. So many of the veggies are really good prices and they look so fresh.

[@lindabader-acosta7808]

Another great video Linna. I always look forward to seeing your new videos, so wholesome and wonderful. And I also like seeing the cooking, gives me inspiration to try and recreate.....sometimes to the best of my ability living in rural Minnesota where I lack access to some of the foods you can get up the street. Looking forward to seeing your next one. Until then, continue to enjoy your life AND your family. *big hugs*

So glad to see you again. Thanks for letting us visit. I am always amased at the food in your grocery stores. Here in Costa Rica we are limited as to what is available. It wasn't that good in the states either. I saw the empty shelves though. Here, we always have plenty even during Covid. You are such a good mother. Your boys are very blessed. Thanks again Linna.

[@LinnainJapan]

It’s so sad to know that 😥 I hope you have better groceries line up soon 🙏

[@LeiaM78]

Hello Linna! I usually comment rarely on videos I watch, but this time I felt the need to do so, to let you know that your content is really nice and relaxing to me and I am waiting for it with anticipation every time. It is nice of you to let us in your home and share your daily life. I love grocery shopping my self for my home and also buy nice things for it, so I feel very good when I see you doing the same!! I would like to ask you and anyone else who would like to answer, about the lotus root. I live in Greece so lotus root is only available in deep freeze in Asian grocery stores. My question is this, the taste of a lotus root is only sweet? And where can I use the deep freeze ones other than soups? Thank you and have a nice day or night everyone!!

[@LinnainJapan]

The lotus roots is really naturally very lightly sweet, almost earthy. You can also defrost it and use it in stir fry, blanched and use for salad.🎶

[@LeiaM78]

Oh wow! I hope you keep yourself safe and warm in your house 🏡 Do you have enough food to survive?

[@francisinghels9765]

Try a marinade for vegetables with apple cider vinegar; healthy and sweet without added sugar. A dressing with argan olie, cumin and orange juice; the best with carrots.

The meals looked very yummy! What a good idea to use up the marmalade the family doesnt like, too, in that pork sauce. Good thinking, Linna! I always enjoy seeing your finds a Kaldi. We spotted on on our recent Japan trip, but i didnt get to go back for a look. We discovered Daiso has come to Australia this week though, so that was exciting for us. So many useful finds. Have a good week, Linna and family. Take care. ❤️
