    Watching from the UK, I was always taught to pull the rhubarb sticks not cut them, that way you get more regrowth! 😊

    One time about sixty one years ago, we had a fierce snow storm. We lost our power and my oldest brother was somewhere out in the storm. No cell phones then. The rest of the siblings were all pretty young and very worried about our big brother. So my mother got to work and made a big pot of blackberry dumplings on the top of our wood stove. They really cheered us up. The next morning Jack came strolling in. He had spent the night riding the snowplow until he got to our house and the driver let him off. I never make blackberry dumplings that I don’t think about that long ago night. ❤️

    Y’all are one amazing family, I love how you don’t get any back talk from the boys when you ask them to do something that’s wonderful parenting. Mark is such a wonderful father and husband he jumps in wherever needed, his mom did a fantastic job raising him. I love how no one complains about any meals or snack you prepare. This video was amazing thank y’all for sharing it with all of us. God Bless y’all! Hi Luna!

    That rhubarb is amazing! I miss it so much because it’s too hot to grow in southern US. My favorite pie is strawberry rhubarb custard with four eggs and half a teaspoon of nutmeg. Delicious! I have fond memories of making banana boats in Girl Scouts growing up. Have you ever made dough boys? You wrap raw Bisquick dough around a stick and roast it in the campfire. When the biscuit is done you slide it off and fill the center with butter and jam. Yummy!

    Hi Lauren I feel like I can offer a banana boat tip to prevent the marshmallows sticking. Instead of cutting through the skin into the banana, peel one side of the banana, but leave it attached then cut the banana and stuff it and then cover the marshmallows with the peel before you roast them. The marshmallows don’t stick this way! It looks like yak had a blast this trip

    I enjoy your videos. We live in fairbanks. I saw the best salmon your husband was cutting in the video. The backbone salmon meat is best part for salmon Pattie’s or salmon pie. Just spoon off the salmon meat from the backbone. The salmon head is also the best part to boil for soup stock and can be eaten. Inside the cheeks after baked or boiled have great cheek meat and soft cartridge. And is loaded with omega 3.

  • @mary-lynnberti7081
    @mary-lynnberti7081 Před rokem

    We are off on a week long camping trip here in Manitoba. One of our campfire "core memory" foods is bannock on a stick. We wrap bannock dough around a cleaned stick and bake it over the fire. Served with butter and jam or sprinkled with cinnamon sugar. We also use bannock dough in our pie irons with apples and cinnamon in the middle. So good! We also love quesadillas for a camping dinner!

  • @SusanMatthews_TiteChatte

    Good Afternoon Hamm Family ❤️
    It's a sunny 86°F here today. A hot, yet beautiful change from the thunderstorms we've been having. My brother-in-love's (Jon) cabin, about a mile away, lost power for a couple hours when lightening hit the transformer just before our electric compnies transformers start: two different providers ⚡
    I'll trade your cold, windy days for our "need to find Noah's blueprints" deluges and "hotter than the Sahara" temperatures of late. I'm either going to drown or melt 🫠
    Kite flying is so much fun. Haven't done it in years. I had a dragon, an octopus, a box and the standard diamond kites. My Mark would like the plane kite 🪁
    Yummy salmon. I made Blackened Cod last night. What I wouldn't do for some fresh fish... it hits different. I learned something knew. Never knew young King Salmon were referred to as a Jack. I always pay close attention when Mark dresses a fish. I'm used to mostly freshwater fish, like Largemouth Bass, but it's been awhile. Used to fish with my Dad on the lake. I could bait, catch, dress and cook what I caught. Mark is refreshing my memory. That is a beautiful filet of salmon, btw. Do you ever eat the head and/or cheeks? It looked like the cheeks had been removed. I love that y'all feed the carcasses to the Eagles. Eagle-cam rocks 🦅
    New fear unlocked... dive-bombing kites. Watch out Dad 😯
    The sun peeking through the clouds makes everything look serene 🌥️
    Mmmm... sausages... perfect for Bangers and Mash 😋
    Love the flowers 🪻
    Awesome to see the stocking of salmon young into the waterways. I've seen bass stocking 🐟
    Pretty sea glass. I need to get me some to craft with 🖼️
    I haven't seen too many sea otters in the wild, but they are cute. We had some very mischievous river/lake otters that hung out in the lake. One scared the bejesus out of me and my sister. He brushed up against us under the water and we both thought we where going to be an alligator's lunch before he pop his playful head up out of the water. Silly little bugger hung around for a good 15 minutes or so before swimming off 🦦
    Love seeing the boys fishing with their Dad, one on one and as a group. Makes me remember those special times with my Dad. Plus, the lessons learned: "Feed a man a fish, he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish, he eats for a lifetime" - women too. So happy you got the boys on camera. Good memories 🎣
    Okay, what did you pour over the salmon?? Ask Grandma. I need to know 🧐
    I'm glad Everett enjoyed his mussels 🦪
    I have to admit, I've never purposely eaten rhubarb. I ate a Strawberry pie once that I later found out had rhubarb in it, but all tasted was strawberry. Rhubarb looks like celery. Is it bitter before being cooked with sugar? The cobbler and griddle pies look delicious. I'll have to try both and get some griddle irons. Some of my favorite memories around food are: Sunday breakfast feasts at my Memaw's (Mom's Mom) and eating watermelon and homemade ice cream at Grandma's (Dad's Mom), both while visiting in Georgia; Sunday pot roast at home with my folks and sisters growing up; cast iron chili, s'mores and popcorn made in and around the campfire during our annual fall reunions. Great memories 🥰
    10pm and daylight... my brain is confused 😯
    No salmon shall be wasted. I'm surprised the speargun doesn't do more damage 🐠
    What a beautiful day for an adventure: boating, exploring the beach and the water. Do y'all ever eat the seaweed/vegetation? What type? How? My friends and I used to hunt for sand dollars (shark teeth and shells) at St Augustine and Fernandina Beaches and Talbot Island in Florida. So much fun. We released the live ones, but the bleached white ones were collected, most 3 to 4 inches in diameter. There was a man who made/sold art, jewlery, trinkets and such who would sometimes buy what we collected. Good memories and fun 🐚
    Rain or shine, wonderful memories are made. Exploring the tide pool is so much fun to do as a family. Lots of cool finds and critters 🐙
    Great artwork guys. Love the kitty. Is that Miss Luna or Miss Rose 😺
    What a beautiful... sunset, sunrise... I don't know, but the sun finds Alaska so beautiful that saying goodbye is not an option 😶‍🌫️
    Thanks for sharing your meals. I haven't made biscuit donuts since Bry was small. I'll have to now. That teriyaki salmon is making my mouth water 🤤
    All I heard when Mark suggested Everett put on shoes was: "if you're not barefoot, then you're overdressed" 👣
    What game was Grandma playing? Not pictionary... before that 🃏
    Banana boats are great: peanut butter and jam, s'mores-esque, Reese's, with a honey drizzle, etc. Mmmm 🍌
    I love that you think of work, and with that, your followers, while enjoying family time, but I love it even more when your main focus is family time. We can wait 🤗
    Question: what ever happened to the boat? I remember y'all were having issues with it last time. I don't remember seeing it this time 🛥️
    Thank you for another great video, and congratulations on hitting 40K. Awesome 👏
    Take care. Yah's Blessings ❤️

    I loved, loved this video! Could you pls tell us what you put in your stir fry veggies that was in the jar that you added. I would like to try making this. I really enjoyed watching Mark fillet the salmon, it looked so easy when watching him. Ive tried a couple of times and I ended up with quarter-sized pieces of fish, from a good sized lake perch. Hahaha. At least I tried! It would be nice if he showed a tutorial on filleting fish. I sure would watch it. Thank you for this enjoyable time with your family!

    So many wonderful things in this video, salmon fishing, looking for sea glass, the discovery bucket and on and on. Loved watching the eagles grab up his dinner.
    Always loved fishing in my grandpa's pond, bringing back the catch for the adults to clean and having a huge fish fry with hush puppies and other great things grandma cooked up.
    I, too, wish I could have been on the quite beach with no one around but the kids for some quite time and reflection. It does wonders for the body and soul.
    Wonderful family time without tv, cell phones or video games. Back to the fun of conversation board games.
    Thank you for sharing such a wonderful family time. I so enjoyed your fun

    Jo Hubbard..SW VA.. As I watched this episode, I realized just how much I enjoy your videos….. the pure enjoyment that your family has together and love you have. I love your cabin videos…. And the sea glass finds..lol. Thank you for sharing. By the way I make strawberry and rhubarb cobbler (freezing the strawberries and rhubarb so I can make it in the winter also) I’m sure your raspberries would work as well. I use a cup of self rising flour, 3 tablespoons solid shortening (the more you use the more crumbly it is) a tablespoon of white sugar and enough milk to make thicker biscuit consistency. Use 2 teaspoons or a small cookie scoop to put the batter on top of the fruit. Bake 350 degrees until a beautiful brown. Delicious.

    My memory food is Graham cracker cookies dipped in chocolate. My grandmother always had them in a lovely tin canister on the counter in the kitchen....they were ALWAYS there. They're not expensive cookies, but when I see them in the supermarket I always think of my late grandmother 😊 Your cabin area is absolutely beautiful!! Your boys will definitely have wonderful memories when they're older 💖🙏🏻💖🙏🏻

    We make our "hobo pies" like pizza, using pizza sauce, pepperoni, and mozzarella cheese! They are delicious!

    Your cabin trips remind me so much of family trips to the north shore of Lake Superior as a kid! No salmon but plenty of lake trout, herring, and whitefish. And wild rice everything! And berry pies especially blueberry and raspberry. I remember woods coated in lupine and collecting rocks on the beach. So many core memories! I know your kids will look back on this fondly.

    Such a great trip! Lots of lovely family fun together and whilst the weather wasn’t as warm and sunny as you’d hoped, still a lovely time away.😊

    Hi Lauren - your cabin trips always brings me back memories when me and my sister spent time with our Mom and Dad travelling and visiting new places and sometimes familiar places during our school holidays. I so love the way you and Mark are raising your four boys to be all rounded in things pertaining to life and godliness. With love from Vancouver, Canada.
