[@cindysoule1014]

mint oreos are good anything mint is good.. love hearing frosty . we had at one time turkeys , chickens , ducks and meat birds.

[@moakley60]

I would make a pasta sauce with those tomatoes. 🍅 (I made this comment before the video was over. I see that is what you did with them. 😊)

[@moakley60]

That big container of protein is a nice item to get!

[@suzanneharris7473]

Wow I am amazed by all of the fancy expensive appliances, I guess the food bank gives you the extra money to purchase all of the other things.Just noticed everything you have each time I see even more stuff.

[@mamabairds]

@@suzanneharris7473 I'm good at bargain shopping!

[@agabaga12]

Those potatoes can make really cool extra long fries. Dinner looks great. We love mushrooms, onions and pepper sauce with the steak

[@rosalitamarie8836]

It's not just foods that may be thrown away that are donated to food banks & food pantries. It's also monetary donations by businesses and individuals.

[@DvLnDsGyZ]

Tip for homemade pasta sauce - add a couple tablespoons of butter and a bay leaf 😁

[@imalexsange]

I mix in my protein powder into 2 cups of coffee (24 oz.) It gives you great flavor and no milk/cream required. I then add 2 more cups of coffee during the day.

[@kathrynbroome5966]

hi ty for the vlog hun but best not to taste the potato with the spoon and put it back in the pan if you have anythign going on you can spread it around xxxx

[@tammybultmann1035]

As soon as I saw the Mint Oreos, I thought ICE CREAM! That would be so tasty

[@mariagar5758]

Very 😊nice recipes n family friendly! Great channel thanks for sharing enjoy your weekend, take care 😊

[@lindabarnes4128]

I learn so much from you!Your informative videos are very entertaining too. There's just something special about you and your family that makes me feel happy and motivated. Thank you for all the hard work you do to create content. I look forward to what I will learn next.

[@lswest1569]

What a yummy looking meal! I could bury my face in that pudding fluff! 😂 Thanks for a creative , fun video. 🙂

[@victoriasprague7014]

People that has high blood pressure use salt substitute instead of salt

[@CAJST-dh3oo]

Very nice food pantry haul! I hope uouvare sll doing well. Happy Friday! 😊

[@trishthedish2790]

Boy that’s awsome great I learn from you thanks have a great weekend!!

[@rachaelsupadventures]

Good evening pretty lady ❤ Great recipes! You got some really nice things to feed your family!

[@sallyapplegate4591]

I’m so glad you made spaghetti sauce!!! I was thinking that would work!!! Yummy dinner and dessert!!!! 😊

[@kimrector8230]

Have you ever made bread pudding you use raisins in it

[@mamabairds]

Oh yes, that is so good!

[@glendabenard3772]

That's a really great food haul. We no longer have a drive through food pantry. Only every three months commodities. Y'all are really blessed there.

[@Amtrak.taz.]

You need to move to Cleveland. I have about 15 food pantries with in two miles of my house. One pantry has all the leftovers from a local grocery store. That has a restaurant in it. I used to eat there years ago. It would cost me a small fortune. Last time I ate there I spent over 20 dollars about 6 months ago

[@momfromcc2934]

Good choice picking the steak. We all need a nice treat once in a while.

[@NannyTam]

Great premiere, Carolina! Thanks so much. Steak looked awesome!

[@mamabairds]

Thanks Nanny! It's always great to have you there!

[@micheleapplegate3473]

I had a porterhouse steak from our local food bank earlier this week. It was so appreciated and I always say it taste so much better because it was free 😊

[@carlasworld8571]

You have a good food bank , your hauls are so much better than the food banks in my city. But something is better than nothing when you need to fill in the gaps.

[@laurawilson6389]

Miss turkey was trying to out talk you. I love the smell of bacon and onion cooking.

[@susandouthitt2961]

Great job!

[@tinawoolmore5328]

do you still volunteer at the food bank

[@mamabairds]

Yes, when I can!

[@HollyHobbie-ll8nq]

Dessert looked yummy. Hope you all enjoyed the meal.

[@mamabairds]

Thanks Holly! It was a great dinner! Husband enjoyed the dessert as much as the kids!

[@kathymetz9964]

Can it Make a bunch of spaghetti sauce

[@heatherfreer6813]

Do you still have your cat?

[@mamabairds]

Yes, I have 3!

[@carolbreeden8854]

It's nice to get a treat of steak. I know sometimes people look at a person when they buy steak with their food stamps, but we don't do it all the time. I'm glad we have stamps and the food bank. But sometimes person can't get ahead cause if you get a raise in your income they cut your stamps. But all in all its a blessing❤❤loved your cookie fluff

[@sherikubishta7326]

Sliced tomatoes? I'd chop and freeze for cooking with...

[@dorisdonnelly9669]

What a yummy dinner . Love your dessert. Did you get any of that steak . I saw you mentioned the kids and husband . What about yourself .

[@merediths9667]

Hey Carolina! Hope y’all are doing well! ❤

[@sherryevitts4744]

Just FYI , the don't double dip is not only for germs. Saliva can break down certain foods, like pudding will turn soupy.

[@marypritchard6182]

I have started using the food bank by me twice a month

[@lisajimenez8639]

I love your concept of your channel so much, but I have a hard time watching the lives because you spend a very long time talking to everyone joining in and by then I have totally lost interest. Just wanted to give feedback.

[@NannyTam]

Hi Lisa...this wasn't a live. It was a premier, which means Carolina was in the chat with us while we all watch the video together. 😊

[@lisajimenez8639]

Sorry, was talking about the lives! Love Carolina!

[@ivorymilton9017]

​@@lisajimenez86390:07 I have to skip over the hello to each person

[@NannyTam]

@@lisajimenez8639 Oops, my mistake...I thought you were talking about this one. So sorry....

[@mamabairds]

I get that! I think the LIVES are better if you are there at the time and I'm able to talk to you. I like saying Hi to everyone and taking the time to talk to them and get to know them better. It one of MY favorite parts about my LIVES! I totally get that being hard to watch on the replays though! Thanks for the feedback!

[@laurac5451]

I got a dump and go five ingredient cook book I think the recipes are o.k. I would always add a salad if I have no imagination or a lot of vegetables very heavy on meat and whatever else she thinks makes it taste better.

[@chuckvenable4409]

Are you kidding me 😯 Bragging about getting free handouts !!!!! What the heck is wrong with you ? One thing is needing a little help, but to brag about it is WRONG!!!!!

[@mamabairds]

How am I bragging?

[@charlottedouglass8869]

I think the thing that bothers me about you & your channel is that your husband works, you don’t. Most families both adults have to work to make ends meet. Why take from the food bank when there are so many people going hungry?

[@mamabairds]

KZbin is my job! Still can't afford groceries at their current rate.

[@mamabairds]

All the comments you leave are negative and the same narrative over and over no matter how many times I answer. Why do you even watch my channel?

[@elizabethpitts2444]

She does work. She raises her children, takes care of home, and homeschooling. That is a full-time job. Imagine wasting your life worrying about other people's choices for their family.

[@paulawinstead5660]

dear charlotte: I do believe you should direct your discontent towards our government and the illegals who are getting $15,000 gift cards(NYC), free food, free medical care, free housing on YOUR dime(and ours also) but yet you want to chastise an American citizen and her hubby who WORKS and pays taxes? Shame on you. You may be miserable with how your life is going but you have no business judging this lovely lady who is obviously NOT miserable.

[@bridgetbowman2229]

This is one of the most ignorant comments I've seen yet.
