Where are the spoons? My baby is 25 now. We have four kids. We started redoing our gardens, and where did I find all the spoons in the garden along with 100s of marbles and match box cars and one lost barbie. Brought back so many memories. Love your videos.❤

[@Insanity_awaits]

That brownie dessert looks scrumptious 😋 enjoy your evening Wads family 💛

[@Kubkevo]

The scrambled pancake is called Kaiserschmarrn here in germany/austria and taste delicious. It's a thick pancake which is scrambled after it got a bit colour. Some add browned butter. But I love it with just powder sugar

[@irenerucker1333]

Cleaning, laundry, cooking, singing and dancing my fav type of video🤗😊...BACK TO SCHOOL IS ALREADY ON DISPLAY HERE IN NJ(school ended 2nd week of June 😩🫤🤦🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️)i like mixing roasted and boiled peanuts together a surprise each bite😁....in my house its forks😂....Meredith🤣⚰️-sing while she sleep

My friend and I use to make scrambled pancake all the time when we were teens years ago

[@carolwhisenhunt7504]

I live around the house happening. My very favorites. Love my bestie Mrs whisk.

[@dvarn59]

So funny that you mentioned that you do know the meaning of “Al dente”. I think we all knew that you did, but every time you say it I do chuckle.

[@karriemb4184]

It might be too hot for your chickens… you might need to put in a misting spray… and chickens love watermelon 🍉!!! Get the rest of the watermelon 🍉 to them !!!😊

[@HillabillyHippie]

I love boiled peanuts! Moved to the south for a while and when I moved back to the PNW, I sure missed those! 😁

[@ashb5733]

That white tank and shorts outfit with the brown belt is so cute! I was hoping you would say where you bought them so I could buy them too but then I found out they were a thrift store score.

[@jennifergross3506]

Look into what you are feeding the chickens try a feed from a more local farmer rather than a national company and more kitchen scraps.

[@alexandracatomio7217]

The scrambled pancakes are what we Austrians call ‚Kaiserschmarrn‘ or ‚emperor‘s mess‘. It has been a staple in Austrian kitchens for hundreds of years.

[@Lois-k9p]

It's funny the kids gets one thing at a time just like my kids did out of the dishwasher 😄

[@michelleh.6363]

Love boiled peanuts from South Carolina where my brother in law would make them! Fresh is best to eat!! Oh the memories! 💕👍😀🐾🇺🇸🙏🏻

Make sure your rooster isn’t harassing your chickens. Because that happens and they stop laying eggs

[@gramcracker1616]

Morning Kim - suggestion: to help with your kid's artwork, purchase a kid's artwork frame for each child. They are front loading and some hold right much in them. Happy Saturday!

[@elaine2770]

Happy birthday Kim I hope I'm not too late, happy to be here as always 3 times a week lol since the last 7 years but I don't always leave a comment because I have my grandkids during the week but I'm always here. Hope everyone is good ❤

[@Liz-bc9pj]

The mashed pancakes are called „Kaiserschmarrn“ in Germany and Austria. Some have it for Lunch but it is also a dessert.

[@kcurious8444]

APPARENTLY, hanging with Kim and friends is a great way to start the day.

I’m reminiscing! In 1987 when I married and went to fill my registry at the local department store, I discovered dish patterns to be in the hundreds of dollars for just one place setting. Then I spied the “Heartland by International” pattern that is same as the cheese cutting plate Kim showed here. Farmer and wife and all farm animals, this was so ME and so I acquired most everything they had: Dishes, platters, potato bin, etc. is so cute and now considered “Vintage”. O Mi ❤️!

[@shanimarais9695]

Please tell me that's your daughter in your profile pic??? I'm almost 50 and the lady in your picture looks much younger than me!!! 😂 if it is you in the pic and you got married in '87, PLEASE TELL ME HOW YOU MANAGE TO STILL LOOK THIS YOUNG AND GORGEOUS!!!!

I actually found that candle! I bought it for my daughter who loves books and is a librarian 😊 It smells exactly how you think it would, just like book paper. It’s amazing!!💗

[@piggylicous1]

Kim, I love your videos and really feel like we are friends lol, so I just wanted to share my big news with you… after 5years of marriage my hubby and I are finally buying a house. My dream house! It’s a 120year old colonial! I feel like I’ll finally have room to implement some of your organizational ideas and have room to start mini homesteading like you! I’m so excited! Please do more homestead videos, you’ve inspired me so much and I do sour dough now because of you. Have a fabulous day girl!

[@thewadsquad]

Oh yessss 🎉🎉🎉 congratulations!! Sounds like an absolute dream!!!!

[@GoFishOffice]

Another great video. Looks like a great pineapple 🍍. Watermelon 🍉 can be frustrating to pick out. I love taking you along with me to listen to while i do my daily tasks. Keep up the great work my friend ❤

[@helenarados6767]

that made pancakes called Kaiserschmarrn on German… It’s popular in Austrian Alpes especially in winter days

[@gabak1292]

If you like the scrambled pancakes, maybe you should look up "Kaiserschmarren" it's an Austrian dessert very similar to your pancakes and easy to make. By the way, the scrambled pancakes will taste even better with a fruit compote, fruit sauce or apple sauce!

[@claireyoung3622]

I’m telling you now I have learned more about cooking from you - specifically cutting fruit and SEASONING with my heart. 🎉

“Listen I know I talk about Disney a lot. I’m not really a Disney fanatic”, she says while filling her key west essential oil diffuser with water from what looks to be a Cinderella mug 😂 I think you’re in denial Kim!

Chickens lay for 10 months, stop, go thru a moult, then start up again after their moult. Their eggs will be larger too, when they start laying again.

[@jenniferhenrich2852]

Hi there party people! I am also about to celebrate my 69th birthday on July first. Up here in Canada it seems that the whole country celebrates with me every year. Fireworks and everything.

Good Morning Kim ❤ Love from Kansas 🌾🌻I love the idea of Summer. I don't do well in the heat anymore but I love it for people who do enjoy. I also try & enjoy each season bc there's beauty in each. Retail pushes the seasons inregards to clothing & decor. It"s just how it is 🌿🌺

Ok Kim! Could you do a video on how to get a sourdough starter going???? It is my personal goal to make a sourdough bread for the first time but it’s SOOO confusing to me 🤣

[@carriechinn8104]

Pinterest taught me.

[@karenbomar5074]

The perfect way to start my Saturday watching you clean,cook,sing and give some great tips😊 I love watching your kids pop in and out of your videos. Keep these moments in your heart. Someday you will wonder where all these moments went 😮🥺❤. My kids are grown with kids of their own. Ahhh the circle of life!

[@trishgels]

Ty for keeping me motivated to stay busy! About the chickens, we figured out that 1 of our hens was eating her eggs + another hens, & sharing it w/1 of the roosters! We figured it out bc they make unique sounds when they're laying an egg. Look for signs of broken egg shells, or maybe eggs laid somewhere randomly. I read online that it won't harm them to eat their own eggs, especially the shells. Still, I think it's weird, & I'd rather not have a chicken just recycling food & eggs... Maybe it's the heat? Hope they start laying again soon, & you can figure out what's going on

[@Maiju86]

When you are having surprise guests over and your first reaction is not panic cleaning the whole house, you have your life together! I am jealous! I would have a panic attack and refuse hosting. 😂🙈🙊

[@samanthainthestacks]

19:07 I have to say, pre kids vs post kids homes are wildly different in my opinion! Kids are just messy creatures lol

[@moimarliekemoi]

The ‘pancake’: i know you have Dutch heritage (I’m from the NL’s) but this kinda looks like Kaiserschmarren! From Austria.

[@nickspangler5508]

Your dessert looks so good. I'm a sucker for anything chocolate peanut butter, especially Reese's. That's my favorite candy.

[@talkingwithtia8045]

First, I tried boiled peanuts and I can't take the texture. I moved to Georgia 15 years ago and it's still the texture 😅 second, we lose forks( kids put them in the Trash) third, Halloween and fall things are out. School is already out and picked over GA goes back the first week of August, and teachers we will start in a couple if weeks.

[@Patricia_Small]

@thewads You made Kaiserschmarrn Classic south German-Austrian pancake thing! Means something like "kaisers mess" -- story is a chef messed up the Imperial pancakes and the emperor loved it anyway.

[@tammyt6193]

I can SO relate to the spoons! I was constantly buying cheap spoons because I'm convinced my kids threw them away with their paper plates. My kids are now 38 and 32.

[@anniebourne7143]

You look beautiful today. Such a joy to watch, beautiful family too.❤ My 23 month old grans daughter was trying to talk to. Wolfgan in the video.

[@NTBT87]

You should look into "Kaiserschmarrn" recipes . Germans like to eat it - comes originally from austria (Österreich) . Greetings from Germany to you and your family ☺️

[@noeleenbyrne5197]

Here in Ireland the shops have the back to school stuff already, the kids only got their holidays YESTERDAY! (28th. June) It's the same every year!

Oh no! There's prepared and then there's crazy!

[@jamihurd2222]

I have been having the exact same problem with my bread I wonder if it’s because it’s hot out, because I have not changed anything else! 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@courtneysinthekitchen2696]

I just went to my silverware drawer and we are out of spoons, I checked everywhere we can only find 2 of the big spoons but have an obnoxious amount of forks. 😅

I'm suprised that you called them scrambled pancakes and not KaiserSchmarnn since you lived in germany ahaha ^^

[@Cathy1223]

We had missing spoons and forks and socks with kids! I wish I had a big jar like you have for kitchen utensils! I probably would end up adding to my already too large collection!

[@donna8212]

Awesome video Kim! I agree, the shorts look very nice on you 😊. Enjoy the weekend! 😁🕊️

[@KatyRichardson-ly5dm]

Definitely trying the scrambled pancakes! My kids ask for them to be cut up anyways, this would save a step!

[@nancyfarkas3592]

I really don’t think kids forget what they learned barely three months ago. Kids spend months in school. They need time to just be kids without worrying about school imo. As long as kids are active during the summer and not on devices they still learn plenty.

[@bossmama7069]

During the summer, just let then be kids. When I was in school we didn't do anything extra and I loved it. I hate how people think they still need to make sure kids learn during the summer, reading, math, etc. Summer break should be summer break. If they want to read, sure, but don't make them. It won't put them behind and they wont feel behind or need to catch up. Alot of teachers feel the same and most of the time the first two week of school is easy so that kids can get used to it.

[@habeebideemashayish2750]

Honestly, I've had people say that they're afraid to touch anything in my house because i have ocd and keep it a certain way. I've learned to stage a small new before i have guests over. 😅😅😅

[@Handschug7]

I just looked it up, chickens can eat bell peppers. Just not the stems, leaves or flowers, they're toxic.

[@Debbpink]

Happy kids come from messy homes!! My closet is a piled up disaster! One day I will clean it out, and donate it all!! Happy 4th of July!!

[@Kiley_and_the_Hendersons]

I’m right there with you on the spoons! I can’t seem to find more than three in my house! I only have two teen boys! 😂😂

[@craftmom5302]

Your chickens are probably pretty so you're going to want to get like a dog kennel to put them in for a day or two of course you going to want to put food and water in there too obviously I know you're not inhuman by any means but one chicken stop laying it's normally because they're Broody so I would just put them in chicken gel for a day or two and then it should take care of it they should go right back to laying their eggs or they're missing a vitamin so you might want to save some egg shells clean them before you save them then once they're dry grind them up and your food processor and you can feed them back to the chickens

[@waterbuckethomestead]

The brownie dessert looks delicious! Happy birthday, Kim! 🎉

[@johnnawalker4474]

Love that you have them read AND have fun during summer. Most schools start back with review, so they shouldn't be behind. We expect some summer learning loss.
