[@mistystivers5976]

You are so sweet. I just wanted to tell you that. I really enjoy your videos. And today at the end of the video when you were talking about seasons of life and sometimes you have to make adjustments and get the pre packed snacks it sort of hit home. I had just picked up some prepacked snacks for my granddaughter that are the “healthiest” option but still not perfect and had a little bit of unsettledness about it. So it was encouraging to hear you say that. Thank you for sharing what the Lord has been working in your own life.

I do something similar with the yogurt cups! I add a tablespoon of PBFit powder to it and stir it up, then I use it as a fruit dip for apple slices. Sooooooo good!

[@kellyharriman8775]

We rip apart the feeze pops after they are frozen. Much easier and we lay them flat during first freezing process. Spreads it evenly and then comes apart so easy.

[@constancegarcia8053]

Thank you for the shopping trip. 🥰

[@kerrybh4625]

I've been following you for awhile and I wanted you to know that you inspire me so much! Not only to organize and cook more methodically, but also to be a better human in general and not to beat myself up when things don't go as planned. I have just entered my 60's and I can tell you that we are never to old to learn from others. Thank you so much for your comments today regarding the ebb and flow of life. It's so true that sometimes we just need to step back and reevaluate and start over another day. Keep making videos! I'll keep watching!

[@julieparnell8380]

I really needed to hear you say those words of wisdom of being humbled and moving on.. I strive for perfection on a lot of things as well and stuff has not been going as planned.. Moving on would be the solution for now! Thank you!

[@julieyoung2876]

Here too ❤

hey Adaline, I really liked the video and yes, I noticed that you upload videos more often, which makes me really happy. I had to smile a little when you spoke about the critical viewers and I agree with you to some extent. I notice that I react like this when I get the impression that the portrayal of the lifestyle is not authentic. When the content is pretended to be. You did a wonderful job when you talked about why you are currently using foods that you have often made yourself. Really good and completely understandable! Greetings from Germany 👋🏻

[@amandakitubu4672]

I'm new here. Thanks for the encouragement at the end. I'm in one of those seasons, my kids are 3.5, 2, and 7 months. I do my best to give my kids as healthy as possible stuff but right now it's moderation for us. I they to do a mix of home made and convenience items. I get down on myself when we have a stretch of not the healthiest stuff but I know eventually we will get there. Those freezer pops are so good btw my kids really enjoy them.

[@aprilchapman2758]

That was a wonderful discussion about everyone has their seasons and we need to allow certain things because lord knows I judge myself a lot.

[@carolyndymond4065]

I really liked that and she's right.

[@carolwhisenhunt7504]

It might be easier to freeze pops then tare apart to not make a mess. I wasn't thru shopping yet when you left cosco. Lol I was making me a shopping list. Ty for the encouragement. I needed it. I need it often. I'm sure many others needed it too!

[@fabienneroure9995]

Great Costco haul.❤ We love "the Laughing Cow" cheese we spread it on celery sticks and it makes an excellent snack! Thank you for your encouraging message towards the end of your video.❤ Sometimes I'm really hard on myself and should learn to ease-up a bit!❤Wishing you a great week and God bless.🌷🍀

[@Crosbhealach]

Those popsicles are awesome. More costly in Canada though. 10 of them are $7. I wait until they're frozen before pulling apart. It's easier and if you accidentally open one, it doesn't spill on you.

[@courtneycolson2508]

i love the that’s it bars !! they are fantastic :)

[@mistystivers5976]

Love those freezee pops!! Its actually easier to pull those apart after they are frozen

[@marshabrubaker185]

We don't have a Costco membership, but do have a Sam's Club. Great prices inside the store & at the gas pump.

[@ambergoreham]

I recently heard about the Bananza chickpea pasta being super high in pesticides. Please look it up before eating. Your daughters are so cute!

[@nicolp7034]

This morning on my feed I came across that Banza noodles have the highest level of glyphosate in any item tested. I’m researching it but I wanted to pass it on since you had purchased it. 💕 the testing was apparently by Moms across America

[@elaineyutzy9899]

I saw this too and was wondering if someone else had commented. Made me sad because I was prepared to get some at Costco next time.

[@lindagailsch]

Great video & awesome life advise about seasons of life & doing your best.

[@TM-he3yh]

Love stalking up with quality ingredients at Costco ❤️❤️❤️

[@danbowers8346]

Wonderful wonderful advice at the end today! Thanks for the encouragement. 🌷

[@chrishingson3064]

That's because those little yellow tomatoes taste the best they have a different taste I love them too❤

[@zoeivanov3656]

what helps me keep track of my groceries and pantry is to put my latest grocery receipts or alternatively a list of what I purchased on the fridge so I know when I bought it and that I need to use it up

[@MandaKaye615]

Something I’ve found very helpful and is my preferred way to shop and meal plan if I’m able to get it done before hand is the day before going shopping especially for a big haul or for the main items for a couple weeks or month is to first go through my pantry, cabinets, fridge, freezer, deep freezer, anywhere food is stored and check the dates and make sure everything is good and toss what isn’t. As you’re going through your items make a food inventory sheet listing what you have in your kitchen and no you don’t have to list every single thing but mainly items for dishes like elbow macaroni, angel hair pasta, cream of mushroom , etc and take note of items in the fridge especially that need to be used up like lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, feta cheese etc and then when you get to the store and are seeing what’s on sale and everything you can use both to help guide you like if ground beef is on sale this week then maybe do tacos or a taco salad to use those Vegs or grab some chicken to make grilled chicken salads etc. personally we have a few regular grocery stores here and no bulk places like Costco so I like to go to the store websites and look at their weekly ad with sales and coupons that match both digital and paper. Also another tip is I usually try to use all the item or items I can up when meal planning for example we like to dice and put green pepper in our spaghetti but I don’t usually use an entire green pepper so depending on its size I will use halfish in the spaghetti and other half in meat loaf so I will plan on cooking them both the same week and I know most people probably use more then us with the peppers but I was just using an example to show using ingredients in multiple dishes for the week to help use it up and reduce waste and save money !

[@kaymarie5182]

These are my favorite type of videos ❤

[@jessiefoley4522]

Throw the thicker asparagus on the grill with olive oil, salt and pepper - it tastes amazing and holds up to the heat

[@kathylaho3344]

Gallon bags at Amazon are less expensive and you get 90 for $20 however quality isn’t as good as ziplock and they seem smaller

[@kathylaho3344]

I have both Costco and Sam’s however I find that a lot of what we use are less expensive at Sam’s but I still use Costco for a lot of food items❤

[@DianaTorez]

Omg I’ve never seen that kind of cove but I was trying to find a soda that’s better for you and that’s when I stumbled upon cove at the fresh market and I fell in love with it it’s so good.

[@carmenn5609]

Wow, Thanks for pointing out some brands that are clean foods, I will look for those when shopping. I like those red and blue coolers-where did you find those?

[@Livingapeacefullife]

I love those deebee's popsicles I go get them every month

[@joanwoodruff7602]

When you have that many fruit pops to tear apart, using scissors to cut down, the perforation helps me not to tear into the bag

[@debbieglander408]

Is it the corn acid added to the corn?

[@kayburris8464]

Great video.. as usual..

[@nicolas5287]

Golden kiwifruit are much sweeter than green. And were created in New Zealand

[@silviamagda]

I don't like them. I like the green ones. They grow here in Spain too.

[@theteachingmom]

My husband always asks me the same question when i get home from shopping!!

[@Mark-js5pj]

Adaline, my wife and I found your channel today and absolutely love it and have learned a lot in just a few hours, especially your pantry at your new house in Texas. But unfortunately, and we have seen this on other KZbin channels. We have subscribed to your channel 5 times today and have been unsubscribed by KZbin five times. You might wanna keep an eye on your subscriptions because we think you’re not being Treated fairly. Please keep up the good work and we will keep on subscribing to you.

[@amykemerink1246]

$3.89! Ahh wow. I just paid over $10 at Costco for the exact same container in Canada 🫠🫠

[@michellerobillard4067]

do you have any ideas on how to make a snack bar or ball that doesn't have any oats, oatmeal or coconut in them I can't find any and I'm allergic to All coconut ,oats and oatmeal no matter what it is I used a chap stick and didn't read what was in it and my lips swelled up and I sounded like Donald duck or daffy duck and had to take 2 benadryl to get back to normal so do you have any ideas for me dosn't have to be organic we do eat junk food as most people say

[@lisak2100]

I heared you can put the Popcorn in the frezzer and it will not get bad 🎉

[@iamwhoiamd7056]

A great video honey.

[@tammymeek8930]

All seltzers or like bubbly taste like salted water to me. I wish i could drink it

We have a Sam's Club Membership & now we are thinking about getting a Costco Membership too. How do you like Costco? And anyone has both Sam's Club & Costco Membership? 🦋

[@AdalineZook]

I’ve went to both for years, we decided about two year ago to just stick with Costco! They tend to have more healthy options & gluten free options ☺️

[@carolwhisenhunt7504]

I really love them both. Cosco here is more pricy but they also have more healthy items I think. I like sams better but there are several things that cosco has that sams doesn't have so I shop them both. It's worth have both memberships I think.

[@msbuttafly112]

@AdalineZook Thank you so much for your response! We are a gluten-free household because I have a gluten allergy/intolerance. 🦋

[@msbuttafly112]

@@carolwhisenhunt7504 Thank you so much for your response! 🦋

[@TM-he3yh]

Use kitchen scissors instead of tearing apart the fruit pops.

[@AdalineZook]

Smart idea! I’ll do that next time!

[@katouminou251]

Freeze ur fruit pops before u seperate them ;)
