Kim, a tip for you. Put your burger meat in a gallon freezer bag( I do a pound) and flatten it out! It saves room and unthaws within 20 minutes in a sink of cold water!

[@4evermydoodles]

I cook my hamburger& onion up ahead and freeze it in like 1lb. ish bags. And we grill hamburger out on the grill and grill up a lot extra then freeze them them. That way when we decide to have hamburgers or taco’s or whatever your hamburger is already cooked. So simple and time saving 😀

[@orietdiamond4185]

You are so amazing, such high energy and such a good wife and mother; and you always keep your sense of humor!

[@jennifertalley4988]

What an awesome way to start the day along my cup of coffee. Absolutely love your personality.

[@thewadsquad]

So glad you enjoy hanging out!! ☀️

[@jeaniegallo4693]

Throw what is left of the rotisserie chicken bones and the liquid from the container into your instant pot and cover it with water. Add salt and pepper. Hit the soup button. You'll have a batch of really good homemade chicken stock. Toss in some rice or noodles and carrots and the leftover meat and big batch of fresh chicken soup. Or toss it in containers in the freezer and you've always got some stock on hand. I consider it a free meal .

[@sherryhallmark8147]

I save the skins of onions and the bottoms of carrots mushroom stems etc. and throw them in the freezer during the week and add that to the rotisserie carcass and water in the instant pot and it gives us a nice golden hue to your chicken stock.

[@emlockhart-j3b]

Have you done a fridge tour? 😂 i would LOVE to see how you organize your fridge with all the food! I’m terrible at just throwing stuff in there and forgetting about it.

[@carmenwashington391]

Yes! We are on the other side of the bay... 👋 from Riverview! We use the cypress creek co op and they have had the pink pineapples!

[@gertrudelawrence6791]

Yes, vinegar works on dried up slime as well. I have taken slime off clothes that has been washed and dried already.

[@thewadsquad]

Good to know!!

[@honeykenzie0762]

I've also been really proud that my kids like fruits and veggies. I like to try new things food wise so they are pretty open to healthy foods

[@carriecunningham4677]

Frozen grapes are the best. I just put some in a snack size ziploc and throw in freezer. The kids will love them too!

[@rebeccamyers990]

We love frozen grapes! We also put them in snack size bags, freeze them, and throw them in lunches. They usually thaw by lunch time.

[@tatianaburgos9320]

Hello! Yeah, pink pineapples were an “experiment” that took several years to develop and it seems to be GREAT. Also it was developed in Costa Rica (my home country) ❤️

[@stefaniebenson2949]

I find that if I soak my fruits and vegetables in water/vinegar, they last a lot longer. And if you wash your berries and store them in a container with paper towels, they will last at least a week.

[@SillyMeKimmieG]

I love neutrogena rainbath. My favorite scent is the ocean mist.

[@nancycolbert2703]

My grocery list is on my cell phone. I have categories for each store I shop in. I add items when I realize I am out over the week. Then when I go shopping the list is ready on my phone which always comes with me. I have found this helps to avoid the dreaded " I forgot".

[@Mysticsoul77]

Salt also works as well. You let the salt soak it up and vaccume it up. It saved our carpet when our daughter accidentally opened glitter glue over it. The rotisserie chicken only last until the next day after buying it.

[@emilyreichert7306]

My mother in law got us a Costco membership for Christmas and this has me SO excited to go shopping! Thank you for adding prices too, definitely helps figuring out what to get where. Happy New Year! Can’t wait to spend another year with you and your fam :)

[@donnamanitu8673]

You'll love your membership and just like Kim says if you find something that you like at Costco go back and buy several. I fell in love with some potato skins that are gluten free and now they are out until the 5th of next month. With your membership Costco will take anything back as long as there is at least 51% remaining of the product. It can be medicine and food which has helped us to try out new brands. For the clothes since there is no changing room I will buy something in 2 sizes and take back what doesn't fit. They also take back many other things and read thru the benefits as we use the Travel department and at the end of your trip you receive a Costco Cash Card.

[@thewadsquad]

Oh no way what a sweet gift!!!!

[@sunshinebakery_melinda]

What a awesome gift!!

[@AndreaRuralMN]

You talked about being out/low on chicken stock. Have you tried making your own with the rotisserie chicken bones in your pressure cooker? I do almost every time I get one. Just put the bones in fill to max capacity with water, salt, maybe some onion and celery scraps and cook for 1, 2 or more hours. Strain and freeze, or I pressure can mine. It's easier to make than it sounds....

[@SaltySirenFloriduh]

I do this once a week! You can also add 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar to make bone broth. Set it to high for 120 min and let it naturally release 👍🏻 best way to use all of a chicken. Works with beef and turkey bones as well.

[@AndreaRuralMN]

@@SaltySirenFloriduh I haven't tried the vinegar, maybe next time. I also do turkey and beef. We've got 1/2 cow coming soon and I'm getting the soup bones to make a couple big batches 😄

[@nalanihao9044]

For Stir Frys (Chinese) add Oyster Sauce (found in your Asian Aisle). Sometimes I'd freeze the yogurt to get Frozen Yogurt for Smoothies or to each just out of the container. For your cheese and salami tray, you could have Mini Pizzas. Have your kids decorate their own before you pop them in the oven or toaster oven. Use a Prego or other Spaghetti Sauce on the muffin, then decorate w/cheese, salami, pepporoni & olives or other veggies and meat. just a few tips i used with the items you bought.

[@melissaloggins3810]

I use peppers and onions in so many recipes that I have started cutting both of them up, putting them in little bags, then gallon bags, and put them in the freezer. So I don't have to cut them before I cook with them. Saves me time and headache. :)

[@lilliegibson7131]

I once hid treats in my shoe caddy, there is a drawer on it. And I completely forgot about them. Found them a good while later with mold. So pro tip, don't hid treats in your shoe caddy.

[@thewadsquad]

Hahaa that’s too funny! Bummer about the mold!!

[@lilliegibson7131]

@@thewadsquad I was bummed, I hid Krispy Cream mini doughnuts... but it was a sign I didn't need to eat them.

[@carolwoodle2179]

I followed what you did with your fruits and it worked great. The strawberries and grapes last so much longer. THANK YOU

[@jenablochwitz645]

Ohhhh Kim, stirring up the rumor mill with that pregnancy comment (; Also- Pls make lunch videos again 😅 I love hanging out with you there!

after removing all the yummy meat from the chicken, I make homemade broth using the bones. Makes great soup!

[@christinawilkinson9209]

You are my spirit human. I’ve been binge watching all your videos and I just love your energy. We are friends in my head. Haha. Now that I’m typing this it sounds weird. But oh well. Your great Kim. Also I live in Florida too and this weather is crazy.

[@jodilifschitz9591]

I love how you started singing New Kids on the Block! lol. Wow, they were my favorite too. Loved Joey :)

[@adamolupin]

I have to say thank you, thank you! I watched your shop with me to Costco yesterday and your throw away observation, "anyone need an office chair?" made me almost cheer. I'm in desperate need of an office chair and I was dreading the 3 hour long round trip to Ikea to maybe find something. I'd completely forgotten that Costco has office furniture and mine is 20 minutes away. I found the chair you pointed out and I got it. So THANK YOU for saving me a long drive through the snow this week!

For the cucumber you use a peeler and skip every other strip going around the cucumber.

[@KittyBee]

Dec 20 is my anniversary too! Been with my hubby for 15 years 🥰 and I picked up the chicken at Costco and my husband loved it! He ask how I heard about them and I told him "the lady on KZbin that pops up said they are amazing so i said why not?" Lol we need to get more of it!

[@DearDebt]

I love all the fruit. You feed your family such healthy wholesome food. Thanks for sharing as always lady. You seriously crack me up!

Kim, when you leave avocados near bananas, it's speeds up the ripening process. Bananas release something that cause that. I usually leave have near bananas and half in the fridge ☺️

We get burgers once in awhile but not for meals. Thank you for some "Fun Starring Kim" in the morning. Made my day brighter. Have a great one! xoxo

[@LauraBidingCitizen]

Romaine lettuce is actually one of the healthiest lettuces you can eat 👍🏻☺️ I learnt that through a dietician / nutritionist years ago, good job too as it’s my favourite! Tell hubby to be careful with juicing, it’s good for hydration but it actually takes out all of the beneficial nutrients from the veggies, smoothies are better (lots of veggies with an apple / lemon etc!) You mentioned our tastebuds having memories, but what I find interesting is how our tastebuds change so much, what I loved as a kid I’m not keen on as an adult & vice versa lol! Thanks for the lovely video as always 🥰 xx
