    In Madrid there's a sweet company called Mallorca that used to make fruit sorbets during the summer. They would get huge oranges and lemons, cut off the tops and hollow them out. They would freeze the shells and put sorbet inside , put the tops back on and voila, fancy dessert. It was really neat to eat orange sorbet from an orange. I've been dying to try this myself. It would be a show stopper to serve a bowl full of lemons for dessert and have people delightfully surprised with lemon sorbet. Might be a good palate cleanser after a heavy fall dinner.

    I just wanted to tell you that you are making a difference with these videos. My 8-year-old daughter has watched a few with me recently and now she's asking if children can volunteer at the food bank. Thank you for shining such a positive light.

    I don’t have a food bank close to me! There is one at a church 30 min from me. It would be nice to volunteer. It would be good for my kids to see how it works and what a blessing it is!

    You have such a wonderful channel… really enjoyed learning about some new recipes… I have lots of chickens and I love them but I have way more eggs than I can sell so I donate them to our food bank…

    A Sheepherder (sheep herder) loaf, also called shepherds bread is a dense bread, traditionally made in a cast iron dutch oven, and it’s delish! 💜
    Those balsamic onions are delish, they’re pickled with a bit of sugar, so they’re sweet n tangy (delish on sandwiches!) I don’t believe they’re cooked before canning, so not caramelized in that sense.
    Btw, I still get sooo amazed by just how fabulous your food bank is, I so wish all of them were like yours, it would be truly wonderful and such a blessing to so many people

    Great idea for the watermelon. I just canned limeade and lemonade concentrate. Very easy to do. I had a case of limes and lemons given to me. The concentrate was the only shelf stable food I could think of. Lol. Thank you for sharing.

    I really like your videos. There are so many teaching moments I see. Gideon has had his shoes on the wrong feet for the past 3 videos as well as his shirt on backwards. A gentle reminder every time will correct that in no time. I wish you all well.

    I really need to try watermelon lemonade ❤️ I’ll probably forgo the sugar all together if possible and just add stevia when I make a pitcher of it. I’ve seen the recipe for strawberry lemonade but never watermelon. Sounds delicious
