I love how you mix it up. I'm not a fan of the vertical format either but, I'm really old. Just call me boomer. 🤣

[@rnorth9286]

I love your recipes. 🤗Keep 'em coming and continue to inspire us in your own special way. 😋

[@tomithot261]

Love your style, and have enjoyed getting to know you ... Ben, Odie, and Hopper. I started watching you after you added Hopper to the family. Has been fabulous to watch your creative way of taking old favorites and making them healthy vegan ... enjoyed watching your success as you have gone whole food and added exercise to your life. Keep walking following the path ... your speed and with little side trips. .. take ,

I really appreciate the love and support. It's folks like you who really keep me doing this. Thank you so so much. Honestly, it's everything to me.

11:27 Seems you are much mor excited about the content to come! I am happy you found motivation and inspiration again! Lots of love and hoping to see some videos from you soon!

[@MultiArtisme]

How am I not following you on The Gram? Oh, well, this too shall pass! 💚

[@sandraosbourn8535]

Your recipes are great, I love how even non vegans like them. I am not a fan of the tic tok formats personally, I tend to like longer videos. With the holidays coming up any advice on meals, snacks or treats that anyone would like would be helpful, even some vegan dog treats would be awesome.

[@paulatyler5998]

I am glad to see that things are looking up for you! I enjoy these personal talk videos sprinkled in to your recipe videos. We have literally made all your recipes! We are trying to lose a bit of our covid spread but will always make any recipe you come up with! Love your pups and you and Ben!💞

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Thanks, Paula! Y'all have been the best since the best since the beginning. I truly appreciate it. I'll pass on the love to Ben and the pups!

[@Westlife344131420]

I love your recipes, your videos! I love the vlog style. It's okay to try and figure things out! We're here for you 💕

Thanks so much for watching, and for taking the time to leave such a sweet comment. I truly appreciate the support. Thank you!

Hi Michael! Nice to hear the update. I’m also surprised you’ve had Hopper for a year, time’s really flown for me too. Glad to hear you’ve rediscovered your passion for cooking and videos. From my perspective, living healthy has got to be better than focusing on weight loss or body changes. And trying to force something, in my experience, doesn’t work and tends to backfire. Recognizing limits is important too. We can only do what we can do; managing rather than trying harder (hence inviting pressure and sense of failure) is key. I’m one of your Instagram followers, but I admit I don’t go there often. I’m just plain confused and frustrated by the format of IG overall. Yes I’m old, and I don’t mind that. I just want to watch videos that interest me. I’m not a kid in an arcade, enthralled by all the jangling sounds and flashing lights, wanting everything new every few minutes. I wonder how the demographics of your YT and IG followers fall out. I do know, you can’t please all the people all of the time. I don’t even know about the vertical format and shorts you’re talking about. For me, I’m not interested and would not pursue. I very much enjoy your longer, more personal videos. I like the straight up cooking, the What I Eat in a Day, and the taste tests with Ben. Also enjoy your pups. Really glad to see more of you here recently, and hope this means things are taking a turn for the better for you generally.

You're killing it Mr. Monson! Me, Stanko and the gfs are gonna try making one of your recipes later this month lol

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Thanks, Aron! I would be honored if y'all made a dish! I don't miss being in the classroom at all, but you and your peers really made the job fun. Thanks for that. And I'm loving the music!

[@aron7973]

@@MonsonMadeThis thank you, it's still quite a learning process lol. We'll tag you when we make it!

[@sheetalkumari33]

I love all ur videos Keep up the great work

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Thank you so much.

[@ellarae6450]

A belly band to prevent the spraying and marking could help Hopper. You could take it off when he goes outside.

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Thanks for the tip!

[@margarett_b]

10:50 I am totally not into TikTok or Instagram videos and I love longer format videos so be assured, I'll be there watching your content :D

[@sddavis9874]

Loving the update. ❤️ Personally, I like the longer format. I wanna see the steps & hear all the commentary.

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Thanks for watching! I like the longer stuff, too. It's more fun to make, for sure.

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Thanks for the follow on Insta! I appreciate it. So sorry to hear about your buddy. We lost Tuffy about a week before lockdown, and it was really tough. But we were happy to find Hopper after some time and processing. We appreciate the love and support. Thanks, again!

[@beverlymummomiller338]

I’m not a coffee drinker. I drink teas. I am curious about the taste of this coffee. Is it strong, or mild and mellow??

[@MonsonMadeThis]

It's very very mild. Exactly like tea. No "coffee" flavor at all. It's almost caramel-y. They have a sample box that's great for trying it out.

[@beverlymummomiller338]

[@plantaetivoli1178]

you're just adorable and perfect

Not a big fan of IG either. Love YT tho.

I get it. I appreciate your support here for sure. Thanks!

Please forget the tictoc(sp?) nonsense. :-) Whoever wants that can go elsewhere.
