I got lyrics tattooed on my arm that say “I am not afraid to walk this world alone” when I was younger and now I’m paralyzed and can’t walk. I totally get how Chris felt! 😂

[@BarbetteKjostad]

Stay strong and that is a beautiful saying.

[@KimmeH120]

I love when Chris tells a story 😅 His facial expressions were killing me!

[@sngray11]

Two things about your lemon tree. It can take up to several years for lemon trees to bear fruit, so depending on how old your tree was when you planted it, will determine when it will finally fruit. Also, you need to give the tree extra nutrients twice a year. Also, you don’t want the branches touching other things (like the fence) while it is maturing. So it will need to be properly trimmed by an arborist.

[@SamiGoode]

I think not vlogging that trip was very healthy, and I am nothing short of proud of you for putting down the camera to really enjoy Disney with your family. You may vlog your life for work, Jessica, but work does not have to be your life. ❤

[@Treesah0416]

The lemon tree while maturing can’t have their limbs touching anything. The reason why it’s not producing is because it’s limbs are touching the fence. ❤😊

[@JesssFam]

WHY HAS NO ONE TOLD ME THIS!!! Ahhhh 😅 if I were to cut them would it work? Or would that also be counter productive? Thank you for this information at least 🥲

[@jennifermarie5328]

Interesting, I didn't know that!

[@mrs.boz1141]

@JesssFam call an arborist and consult about trimming :)

[@ktelise]

I know it sounds gross but lemon trees really like manure as fertilizer. They flourish with it, so if you have any farms nearby and can get some fresh/untreated/chemical free manure, your lemon tree will thank you.

[@BarilFamily2024]

Omg soo dramatic but also same !!! Such a cool fact

[@whitneybarnes2711]

My sister is plant obsessed and names them. Anyway, she has become very knowledgeable about plant anatomy and knows how to treat them when sick and has told me a long time ago that cutting off stems or branches promotes growth. I thought it was counter productive but the plant is still alive.

[@macimarie0823]

Lemon trees can take anywhere between 2 to 6 years to bear fruit. Give them some food too if you haven’t and make sure it’s in a spot that gets lots of sun! Oh, and I usually find cuties at Walmart!

[@macimarie0823]

I’d honestly love to see how you fit all that in your fridge lol I have a family of three and have to shove things in 😂

[@thefumblingcuisiniere]

Jess, depending on the age of your tree when you planted, it can take several years for it to produce. Meyer trees can take up to five years, so hold in there and you'll be rewarded in another year or two. 😉

[@Gidget2324]

LoL Chris' story about his tattoo made me laugh SO hard. I can't even imagine the feeling he had at this point when the mom was like standing there most likely awkwardly looking at the tattoo wondering why her daughter's name on your arm. I can't wait to see the finished product :D

[@melissalove2463]

I know Chris is not Landon’s biological father but my lord looks wise he could be especially there eyes ! 💞👀💞

[@margaretjoy_stucky]

I love your vlogs, and I am so happy you did take a break and hang out with your family where you can be a mom and hang out. Because time goes so fast that you can't miss one bit, and also, these years are going to be your closest year with your kids, expressly when it comes down to Lila because, in a little bit of time, she will be a grown adult and time will be fast, but you are doing excellent Jess.

[@rebekahkleder65]

Oddly enough onions are my favorite veggie. Red/Purple onions are sweeter and are best for eating raw on salads, tacos, avocado toast, etc. and the White/Yellow onions are more bitter and are best when sauted or cooked. The same goes for bell peppers the four knobbed ones (females) are sweeter and best for eating raw and the three knobbed ones (males) are bitter and best for cooking. If you are eating bell peppers and they taste bitter/sour then you are eating the male bell pepper which is meant for cooking.

[@alyssalombardi1610]

I love that Chris has evolved from plain black t shirts to black t shirts with designs on them 😂

[@chantalfrederick5085]

Im so proud of you Lillia !! I came out at 11 years old to my family I'm now almost 30! Be proud of who you are and never change!

[@nicolebryant2419]

I’m glad you took a break from filming to concentrate on family. Life goes by to fast, slow down and be part of life through your own eyes and not the lens ❤

I love how Chris is always in black but in black with disneyyyy

[@AE-nh3dn]

Canned vs frozen. Depends on the veggie and what I’m doing with it

[@THEmomfriend96]

Definitely prefer frozen veggie over canned! I think canned veggies taste weird 😅

[@erikatripp3072]

Exactly! Canned vegetables have a can after taste. They also add a lot of salt to some canned vegetables.

[@stephaniewright340]

Chris reminds me of how my husband use to be ...before he got really sick...now its all just memories...enjoy these days Jess ..cause it goes by so fast...

[@elephant1871]

awwww i’m so sorry! i understand (to an extent) bc i was really close to my grandma and until she got cancer i was able to tell her everything a play with her and then (it happened really fast. like she got cancer and like 6 months later she passed away) she passed away. i miss her everyday and i understand your pain!

[@taylordawnn]

Aw I am so sorry🥺😢🙏

[@TR210531]

My last 2 tattoos I have found mad rabbit healing gel. Heals like super quick. You use it after washes and if there’s itch. I’ve gotten a honu and the flower from tangled. They healed so well with it. So much better than my foot tattoo.

[@lolagutierrez3948]

Frozen veggies always!!! I mea prep and frozen veggies are a MUST BUY when I shop for groceries

[@bdhesse]

Just a heads up: when things are fat free, they substitute the fat for more sugar (for flavour), which means fat free options are always higher in sugar than the full fat options. Sugar is way worse for you because your body will take the fat in foods and burn it as energy, but sugar can't all be burned immediately, which means it is turned to fat inside of you. Sugar that is turned to fat inside of you is not immediately burned, it is stored. So it's way healthier to go for the full fat options and look for sugar free or low sugar foods than it is to go for low or no fat options.

[@maddieranee3090]

Agree on the cuties! Cuties are also seasonal so that’s why you can only find them at certain times

[@Noa_Gray]

Your family makes my days, thank you for the amazing vids…. You put so much love and effort into your vids and I just want to appreciate that ❤

[@mistykeys8011]

Frozen always. It tastes more like fresh. Also, in the canning process, the product is heated to a high temp to aid in preserving the canned product. That process heats up enough that it destroys the vitamins and minerals in the process. Frozen usually tastes better to me. I grew up eating vegetables straight from the garden. I can taste the can with most every kind I’ve tried.

[@jodeesmith1685]

Lemon trees 6 years old to produce, also needs the correct fertilizer. With that being new ground with no good top soil, find some good lemon special fertilizer. Find a garden center in your area who would know what to do with new build ground to get your tree on track for doing more than leaves. Good luck. The tree is beautiful.

[@EmiPie93]

For my veggies being frozen or canned - it depends on the vegetable. I could sit down with a drained can of green beans with a little bit of red vinegar poured on top & eat the whole thing myself- but I prefer frozen corn & peas. Just frozen. not thawed or cooked lol

[@ivysteck1094]

I m so thankful for families/ you tubers who are so nice and you do understand you can take a break I just feel you are one of the best moms ever and you give your kids what they deserve my names ivy I'm 9 days older than the twins and ❤u guys u make my heart whole from london

[@sylvialovesxo9315]

What I've learned from my dad that has 5 big lemon trees is to plant them into the ground when it's a full moon to have them grow big with lots of lemons and very juicy

[@andreaw.5610]

It’s a 10 is amazing. I have fine hair and have used it for years to detangle after I wash my hair. Good choice!!

[@walk3rrrrrr894]

I definitely choose frozen over tinned veg any day , i dont know why it just tastes better ... btw i love watching you !💜

[@crystalmilvo5229]

Frozen for sure!! I think it's less preservatives 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@msshadows]

That grocery shop is just like mine. Solo mumma of 5. Crazy wild, hope I get through the week, is this enough sanity saving bits. I totally feel you. I just can’t stop laughing thanks Jess.

[@heatherbrooks7189]

Lemon tree You can also do Epsom salt at the base of your tree. Epsom salt is magnesium. It allows the treat or plant to make energy essentially which creates sugar giving you a sweeter fruit off of your tree.

[@rebeccakillough3501]

I almost always get canned vegetables! But when we get a deep freezer for our garage I plan on getting more frozen veggies!

[@kadiecarrell3959]

Roll citrus friuts on the counter befor you peel them it makes it so much easier and absolutely frozen veggies except for green beans then they have to be fresh and in the oven to cook

[@Shauna_Wili]

Cuties are literally marketed for easy peeling. They would say it on every commercial.

[@sarahbeena]

As a illegally blind indiviual, I perfer frozen veggies because it takes longer for it to expire and is easier to cook with.

I like frozen over canned. Another weird huge thing that people argue over is how they make their spaghetti!!! I just found that out and I was shocked at how crazy people got 😂

[@austinkretchmer6968]

I got a lemon tree 5 years ago now and 2022 was the first year I got lemons. It take at least 3 years to start producing fruit. It will bloom but not necessarily make fruit. Takes a lot of research and love and care.

[@shellyrands9784]

Hey Jess! You are allowed to have fun family time and breath for a bit! As much as we love you all you do have a life! So happy to hear you had fun!!❤

[@melissagreen1117]

So glad you got quality family time. My guess was a new tat for Chris.

[@nataliagonzalez4473]

I'm sorry but when he said his tattoo hurt it made me giggle. I have many tattoos of all sizes and they were maybe a little sore but never like hurt! Maybe I handke pain better. No hate! Promise! Can't wait to see the final results!!! P.s. we go through 3 packs of Strawberries in 2 days! And it just my 3 girls! How do you make them last??? Also aldi grocery store sells cuties

[@KS-xu7ih]

The lemon tree needs to be pruned and then it takes 3-5 years for it to fully mature to get good lemons

[@MeganKimball74]

Does Chris ever use Tegaderm for his tattoos? I got a tattoo yesterday (February 8th) and am trying Tegaderm out for the first time. I’m not sure if I’m a fan of it yet.

[@kerriryan3627]

Chris secretly goes and visits his sons in Southern California! Does Chris goes to school events or sports events with sons in Southern California? Does he take one on one time with his real sons?

[@AmandaPickles]

When it comes to the veggies I go with frozen especially with corn because you can take some out of the bag and put the rest away but out of the can if it’s not finished you put it in the fridge and usually forget about it and I hate wasting food 😩

[@melissalove2463]

I got a bag of frozen corn…………… Ok let’s start a war ! 💞😂🤣😂💞

Frozen veggies have more of the nutrients still in them and taste better 😊

[@ashleystankovich354]

You are not alone when it comes to the oranges! All oranges other than cuties are so frustrating to peel!

[@pennyferguson9839]

Frozen veggies all the way..don’t want all the sodium in the canned..plus the frozen just tastes fresher.

Just wondering if the podcast will resume again? Or are y’all done with podcasts now? Really enjoy listening to them.

[@babagirl8510]

A lemon tree should be 6-8 ft part from a wall so it’s roots can spread out and the branches can also spread out that’s why it’s not producing anything also you should check the amount of water your pouring and lastly I don’t think the tree is big enough or ready to produce it matters on how long you’ve had it. Exposure to cold is a common reason for lemon trees to lose their blossoms without bearing fruit. Lemon trees do not tolerate much cold, and are generally more sensitive to cold than they are to heat

[@clogger024]

Idk if lemon trees are like peach trees lol but my peach tree I planted I think took like 3 years before it produced peaches. 🤷‍♀️ so maybe in another year or two???

[@sarahandrea7232]

Def the bagged corn! Idk if anyone else did this but we grew up eating frozen corn. We never heated it up! Lol!

[@createwithclaire7740]

Our lemon tree in our backyard sucks too. It took YEARS for lemons to grow and then they grew these HUGE “lemons” turns out we had sucker branches that needed to go. Now we rarely get any good lemons. Complete fail. We share a lemon tree with our neighbor in the front yard and that one produces perfect lemons. 🤷‍♀️

There are different thickness of skin due to what kind of citrus you have. Oranges have the most thick skin. Than you have satsumas, mandarin, clementine,grapefruit.
