Random Stuff - Stock, Nice Rice, Beaches, Bonus Soup, Comment Positivity, Too Good To Go

From Eva's point of view, you're digging around and barking at rocks too.

Thank you especially for the Seatown section. I have cerebral palsy which comes with very poor balance, and some of my favourite childhood memories are of someone sitting behind me on the beach so I could have free hands to play around in the sand or gravel. Really appreciate being up close and personal with the beach again - wheelchair wheels hate sand and I am not easy to "throw around like a sack of potatoes" anymore!

Eva barking at stones will never get old.

I love how totally normal your videos are. No fluff, no fake drama, just shrimp videos. I appreciate that

I recently picked up a Too Good To Go "fruit and vegetables" bag from a supermarket near me. It was really good value, the bag was stuffed, and the stuff inside it was decent quality. BUT: among other things, the bag included about 15-20 bananas, give or take, which were all still edible, but clearly would not stay good for much longer. I live alone. Even if I make banana bread or something, then I have entirely too much banana bread on my hands. For the next couple days, I sounded like the weirdest drug dealer in the world, because I hit up everyone I know with "hey, do you like bananas? Do you want some bananas? I have so many bananas, take some! Take some free bananas, why don't you"

For some reason, the fact that you actually print out comments instead of either saving screenshots or reading them directly makes me really happy

That's not paella, you can only make paella in the champagne region of Japan.

I've been going through a lot with my anxiety, physical illness and PTSD lately - thank you, as always, for helping me find safety in the mundane, normal, simple parts of life. I'll never be able to put words to the soul soothing feeling I get when I click on a video and hear you just start to talk through the process of making a nice chicken stock. The beach segment with you sifting through the gravel and Eva barking at rocks was also wonderful. Always love to see Eva in her little coat 😍

I would have been perfectly happy to watch the too good to go review in a seperate video. Personally I found it quite interesting.

Inspired by Shrimp, I too have began collecting "veg bones" in a freezer bag for stock use.

I'm not in a position where I could care for a pet, so watching your doggo go diggo is a vicarious pleasure for me.

Great Video, I work for a large stock producing company in the UK and I am also a keen home cook. Dishes have names and some are linked to certain areas of the world but everyone of them has been born out of trial and error and the ultimate goal being flavour. Using all the leftovers like you do and using that flavour to enhance any dish is a cooks dream despite wether that dish has the right name or exact ingredients. Use everything, create as much flavour as you can and enhance anything you can, if we all did this the world would be a better place. Amen.

I was so shocked with what you did with the broth+currypaste+gochujang that I, at 12:41 at night, went and made it. I happened to have some stock already home made, and the above items. Holy cow.

Besides everything that is "wholesome" with you vids you have really helped and inspired me in cooking.Nowadays I can make very much with very little and it has made a serious, real impact in my food budget because I just wanted to try some stuff myself "Can I survive for a week on 100 swedish crowns (ca 7 pounds)". I can, some meals might be boring but it makes me think about money in a different way.

I think Eva has learned the game very well, she sees you barking about rocks, so she’s just returning the favor!😂

You're one of my favorite comfort YouTubers thank you for being yourself. The wide variety of things you do and are interested in inspire me it makes me want to go do things.

That was amazingly fun and satisfying A.S. as a wheelchair user I can't get to some of the walks you featured. It was very enjoyable to enjoy your company without banging music, rather the natural sounds and a pleasant voiceover. I loved the random nature of this one and watched from beginning to end, which I wasn't expecting to do. So I'd love to see more of this sort of content. Hope you're now fully recovered. Kind regards,

Quick tip for long-term stock storage - reduce it by 1/2 to 3/4s by gently boiling it in a pot to save on storage space. As long as you know your reduction amounts you can always add the appropriate amount of water back in. Also, store it in many small containers (or freeze in ice cube trays) to make it easier to dole out. I inevitably have liters of stock once every few months, and it's much handier to store in multiple 250ml deli containers (that I don't even necessarily use all of in one go due to reduction) than into one big ol' container you'd have to take an ice pick to.

Talk of a multilegged chicken reminds me of the old joke. Scientists have crossed a chicken with an octopus so everyone gets a drumstick. Does it taste good? They don't know. No one has been able to catch one.

one of my best experiences of too good to go was when i ordered a bag from a small petrol station morrisons, the bag was heavy, contained 4 mini tomato and cheese pizzas, a bag of mixed leaf salad, 2 containers of tuna and sweetcorn sandwich topper and 3 various potato prepared products, in a combination with my regular shopping and stuff i had in cupboards, lasted me almost a whole week as a university student when i first got it i was a bit overwhelmed and nervous about wasting any of it but it lasted long and was fairly satisfying in the end my main problem/worry with too good to go is the amount of choice you get, i could've easily gotten something like what happened with shrimp in the video, i do not regularly eat meat like pork or beef, sometimes chicken edit: the morrisons was walking distance
