[@MrsAlmaTrumble]

Asking y'all to please continue to pray for my hubby and I. He goes next week to a Pulmonary specialist to see if he can have surgery to remove a large hernia removed that's pushing against his right lung. He's on oxygen 24-7 due to Covid damaging his lungs. Thank you in advance. God Bless.

Kim, You're a mother like no other. Alex and your family are so lucky to have you. Take a bow. Thanks for sharing as always.

[@antoinettemarie-stautertri4010]

My husband lost his job in November, and having a small stock pile saved us. Especially during the holidays. Thankful we have both our parents close by, so they've been a huge blessing helping keep everything positive for our 2 kids.

[@twinklbloo5743]

My prayers are with you and your family. Thank goodness for having family nearby. All will be well ~ sometimes difficult of course I have been homeless with my little ones so I understand how challenging life can get. My kids are adults now and know together you can get thru it. 🙏💙

[@wallashakalla]

Sending good vibes your way. I’m in the same boat except my kids are grown and moved out. We are still recovering from my accident last summer (shattered my elbow), where I was out of work for 4 months. We’ll get through it, I have faith

[@jezzlynnnoparticularniche8019]

Since I found Kim's channel I've laughed so hard at some of the things you say. I absolutely love The Wads. Don't stop I appreciate your hard work. Have a beautiful wonderful day😊✌️👍

[@maryinmichigan2626]

Kim! You look so pretty today in your NEW Pink sweater AND your earrings! Woman across the room! Loved your meal planning and recipe ideas. I always did this about a hundred years ago while raising our three kids. I did it to stay on budget and kept at it which helped us save without realizing it. I mean we had three no stop eaters, but staying within a meal plan and shopping accordingly helped us $ave. Thanks for making my day, Kim! Everyday!💕

[@amyomalley1041]

Best way to kick start a Saturday is with Kim!

[@amandatransformed]

I LOVE that you post your videos in the mornings for me. I get to have coffee and Kim content before the kid gets up. It feels like self care. 😂

[@aimee2234]

Well I'll be! I a designated party person stayed up to sleep in and woke on Kim time. Happy was achieved and we saw a mighty haul to feed the masses. Thanks for sharing a glimpse behind the curtain, Kim and be blessed my Wads family and friends. YOU matter and are loved! xoxo

[@kathykwilliams6457]

Yep, me too at 65! I was very organized until I became disabled. I'm slowly but surely purging my home of the things I don't need. I just need help with the getting it out of my house.

Your videos are my "feel good" moments of my day. I play them exactly when needed. Thank you for sharing your life and family (including Little Wolfgang!). I love watching him grow!

[@supawaffles9]

When I make stuffed peppers, I cut the Bell peppers in bite size pieces and make it into a casserole. I can add more bell pepper that way as well as different colored bell peppers! So good!! I use 1 packet of knorr Spanish rice, cook as recommended and add a 8 oz can of tomato sauce. Brown 3 Johnsonville sweet Italian sausages and crumble. Once sausage is cooked lightly cook bell pepper and add to the rice. Dump in a casserole dish and top with cheese. I use mozzarella and bake until cheese has browned. This is for a family of 4 so adjust however you need. Quick meal!

[@anastasiadavis08]

I’m trying to convince my extended family to start a themed once a month dinner! Every time you mention it, I just think that is the most fun thing ever. ❤️

[@MommaLousKitchen]

My cousin does movie themed dinners, pretty cool. Menu printout and all lol, creative movie themed named foods ect

[@sandymyers1182]

I had to laugh when Kim was at the table writing her grocery list. Years ago, I was doing the same thing, writing the list from the recipe. I got to the store and one of the things on my list was ‘water’. 🤪

[@joeysturm]

I know this isn’t a cooking video but I just have to say after watching Kim for the last few years when I cook dinner and I don’t have certain ingredients or enough of this or that, or I think such and such would taste good added in…I can hear her in my head saying “it doesn’t matter! It will be fine!” She has made me so much more confident in the kitchen and as I try to teach my teenagers to cook as well!!

[@carolfinn4027]

That was great! Love the French accent. Those lids for the food storage containers were something!

Baked potato bar is pretty fun. You can load 10lbs potatoes in a roasting pan and make a topping bar. Chili , sour cream, cheese, cooked broccoli or mixed veggies, taco meat, just anything! Salad or soup can round out your menu. Cheers!

[@momjlhendo]

Watching this while deep cleaning my office! Had to rewind a few times-but this was my favorite "Visit with Kim" to date. Loved this video and so appreciate all that you do to encourage us!! Also enjoyed seeing the "cameo" appearances by the family. Definitely gonna try a couple of the recipes!

[@CindyKinney]

Thanks for the tip about precooking the peppers in the microwave for 15 minutes. I have only made stuffed peppers once and they were pretty much raw. My husband gave an immediate thunbs-down for that. Thanks, as always, for the fun and entertaining time spent with you.

[@amixeblu]

Back some 47 odd years ago when my parents broke ground on this house, "they said" that if you wanted an excellent lawn and productive soil you needed to plant potatoes. Back then we had 1 potato (famous) in Belgium, called the "bintje" and you could fry it, and cook with it, it came out really nice. I think you guys' Whole Foods sells them and really big ones too. Back here you can no longer get them, what 40/50 years all changes right? So my dad had potatoes 3 years in a row before he got infested with beetles. Ugh. No more potatoes after that, but you should see all our plants and rose bushes out here right now? Supreme!

[@sylvettemaricot3836]

I do think you're on the right track for getting your life together. It's always amazed me the difference between your grocery shopping and mine. I do envy you for being able to get strawberries. I'll have to wait until may/June. Bonne journée Kim et bon appétit

[@audreysuzzane9278]

I’ve been using Macro Friendly food since last summer. You made one of the cake recipes and I was sold! It really has been a game changer. The best part is being able to easily plug the meals into MyfitnessPal

[@bridgetteurbano1440]

What a fun way to start a Saturday with a cup of coffee and your video! You just crack me up!

[@suziebuckingham9053]

Kim, the best way to have back stock of items is to buy 2 when they’re on sale. Then when ever you empty the first one, you put on your shopping list. Purchase one, and you will always have the extra in the pantry. Yes, a rubber mallet is the easiest way to put the ring on, then add the screw on lid.

[@donnaluzier4299]

Love the sweater Kim, it is beautiful and the color looks great on you!!! Hope Wolfgang is giving you a bit more time to do things. My daughter and her hubby had their first 6 months ago. She is such a wonderful blessing. I sit for her 2 to 3 days a week, bring a me such joy!

[@darlajustice3572]

I use food storage buckets too. I have 4 buckets of sugar. One with of each flour. One of rice. I stock up everything you would ever need. Enough for a year or so. i put bay leaves in my flour buckets. Love watching you. You make me laugh and give good ideas and meals.

[@lauraw9657]

I've lived in Florida my whole life and I keep a bag of flour I'm using in the refrigerator and extra 5lb bags in the freezer. Flour has a tendency to go rancid quickly in Florida. I hope your storage option works.

It is so nice to wake up and see you have a new video posted. It's just what I need to "get my life together". Love you positive energy. After watching for for years, I got a Costco membership and I went yesterday for the first time. Aussie bites rock, as do those Heavenly hunks. I also got those kodiak cakes, I'm so excited. I feel almost like a regular person. Thank you. You rock!

[@TheBrittbrat2341]

We went to the strawberry festival a few years ago! It was nothing like how I remembered it as a kid and it was so expensive crowded hot and expensive lol The dog show was fun for the kids, we always get a strawberry shortcake but we end up leaving and just getting some Strawberries from the locals 😁 The parking is insane too, I'm going to miss going to Clearwater/Safety Harbor since both my grandparents have passed away 2019 and 2022. So many memories I learned to swim at their house and we used to go to Philippe Park every other weekend.

Our eggs are $7.00 for a 12 pack of store brand. I got chickens in April. They are so much fun. The each have different personalities. ❤️ They are the easiest animals to care for. I love my girls.

[@laurenmac4655]

Chickens are easy and the best! And besides eggs, you can give them most of your kitchen scraps! Cutting back on your garbage waste. For example, when I clean and cut my strawberries I give my chickens the tops.

[@lindamcdermott9980]

Only in to the first few minutes….. fascinated by those earrings! Just figured out what they were! 😄

[@thepuglady3931]

It’s crazy how much prices have increased at Publix!! One our favorite treats is Heath bar cookies that we decorate with buttercream icing so I buy a small container of Publix buttercream icing. In early December it was $5.99. In late December it was $6.99. Last week it was $7.49! I was shocked!!!

You can warm up those gamma bucket lid rings in warm water and then they just pop on. I was riding the struggle bus with mine until I learned that.

[@reneehenrich3514]

I’m on the west coast and am horrified for what the rest of my day will bring because I can’t seem to go back to sleep! But I saw that Kim uploaded and truly, truly thought…ooooh a video?!? So, you know, keep me in your thoughts today. I will be dragging.

[@susan-almosta_farm8823]

I've been keeping bulk foods in 5 gal buckets with the gamma lids for a while and just wanted to throw some advice at you. When I first pick up my flour and rice or any whole grains, I put them in the freezer for at least 3 days but usually a week, take them out and let them thaw for 24 hours, then put them in the buckets for storage. This reassures that anything in those bags that might hatch won't. Years ago I lost a whole bucket of flour due to weevils. It's sickening to think they are there, I know. 🤢

[@sarahpipes3930]

I wish you could see how my 1 year old sways when ir intro music comes on. Gets me everytime. Sending strength your way with your new baby. Lack of sleep is no joke. 😬

[@Dorrie519]

Kimberly, I am watching this well after it was posted, but...I know you have an upright freezer in your garage and a small fridge outside in the outside kitchen. Do you have another refrigerator beside the one in your actual kitchen? Have you ever thought about purchasing half a cow butchered or even half a pig? We do that here in Pittsburgh PA. My sister and sister-in-law and i split a whole cow. I do have a medium sized chest freezer to keep my beef in. it lasts us almost a year!!

[@ravenbrown7053]

Totally love your channel! And I think you are a lot more "together" than you are feeling- thanks for all that you do! ❤

[@DragonflyArtz1]

I think the thing I liked most about your "Meal Planning" Folder is the fact that they all looked the same style. Do I $10. a month like it? No. So I'm going to have to mock up my own Template in the same fashion. Man I miss Florida! Seeing you clean and stock your outdoor Kitchen Mini Fridge- while (here in Colorado) we are sitting in 2' of snow! Love the Stuffed Peppers! Mmmm.

[@teeandkids937]

I agree but wanted to say that it’s not because they’re fancy but because she gets NEW recipes every month that make it 10 dollars worth I do believe haha

[@SalLeeHolland]

I buy those storage buckets at Home Depot, and ask them to put the lids on for me. They will do it! As for eggs, with the price or can't even get them, I freeze some. Take those muffin silicone things, and take one egg at a time and break the yolk and stir it with a fork. Put each egg in one. (note they pop off so easy after frozen) Placing them on a cookie sheet. When you have the amount you want, place the cookie sheet of them in the freezer. Once frozen take them out and pop off the muffin part, and put them in a Zip Lock bag. Great for adding to foods after thawing. Just take out the amount you will need for a recipe, and thaw over night in the frig. They are great for baking and in dishes. If you don't break the yolk, it will give you a different texture you don't want. Doing this you will have eggs when the store is out! You can also use them for scrambled eggs, but I like them for other things.

[@vickylynn5536]

At the end of the day your trying to be prepared for the week ahead. And your "Final Destination" scenario I love it and out of all 5 of the "Final Destination" movies that is the only death scene I remember......
