Psalms 19:1. The heavens declare the glory of God, the skies proclaim the works of his hands. What a beautiful and emotional experience. 😊
So happy to see that this family aren’t one of those people that hid in their homes with drapes drawn quaking in fear, fasting and praying for deliverance from evil. Good for children to see this completely natural phenomenon untainted by fear of some supernatural threat.
Oh Jessica, I am moved to tears by this video ❤. I was so happy to see that Adam got to be home with you to enjoy the fruits of your labor, and God's! You outdid yourself! Your kids are going to remember these moments with you. You are an amazing mother!!!❤
What a SPECIAL video. For those of us that weren't even in the line of a good view, your video gave us a EXCELLENT recap, THANK YOU!!! YOU are a PRECIOUS SOUL for making such sweet memories with your children and a gift to us viewers for letting us watch. A Double Thanks! ❤
Jessica, your ideas for the food that day were brilliant! You are such a fun mom. Your kids will remember that day for the rest of their lives and Hannah can look back on this video to see what she missed, lol. Great way to start my Sunday morning!
hannah didn't miss it. she was right there in the mix. she won't remember it, but she was there! 🙂
I missed viewing the totality because I was trying to help my daughter see it (she didn't). It was super eerie, the birds stopped chirping and the street lights came on. Temperature dropped like crazy right around totality. It was one of the strangest yet coolest natural events I've ever witnessed. (SE Michigan here). That was really cool you made special foods for the event!
We had a full view of the eclipse here in north Texas and what an amazing display of God's handiwork in the Heaven's ...
2 Tim 1:7, 'For God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, of love and a sound mind."
So many fear mongers here on YT ...
Guess what? We all know there was no EMP, no power outages, and the sky didn't fall.
I walked the farm as the eclipse was taking place; it got dark, temp dropped, a slight breeze, birds chirped and the experience was just like you said, Jessica; very spiritual.
I felt an amazing peace as I prayed to the Lord ..what a blessing to be able to experience such greatness from the Him.
Thank you for sharing your family's experience and may the Good Lord bless all of you.
Sending love from north Texas!❤
I think you did a fantastic job making ‘eclipse’ food! Great imagination!😊
Your children will always remember how special you made it for them.
We live in Northeast Ohio, and the eclipse was such a beautiful experience to share as a homeschooling family. The real life science lesson, and just the majestic view was something we cherished sharing as a family. Thank you for sharing your footage, it brought us right back to that moment... just awesome.
YES on the spiritual part of the total eclipse. I got teary, heard myself say, 'Wowww' a dozen times. Phenomenal.
Jessica, you are an expert at not wasting anything! I have learned so much from you about using the little leftover bits. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Back in 2017 when we had full eclipse in my town, it was like you could sense the glory of God . To think the God I serve is behind such a grand event!
We drove 18 hours to see the eclipse and how you described how you felt is how I have felt both times I’ve seen it. It’s a very hard to describe feeling. Magical
This is special family time. Jessica, you brought science to life for your children 😊 thank you for sharing
This was the best eclipse coverage that I have seen. I love your heartfelt description of it from a mother’s point of view. And Gabriel’s footage was great! We were cloudy & in Minnesota so couldn’t really notice any difference.
Thank you really appreciated joining you on this wonder filled occasion. 😊
Thank you so much for showing your family fun, food and eclipse pics. It was rainy, cloudy and cold here in Tenn. Our family got outside acting silly, oohing and awwing, pointing and mouths agaped but saw nothing. I love solar stuff and set my clock when I can and run out and see the space shuttle go over at night. Have a great Lord's Day today as well!
We were in Chicago for a family gathering for the eclipse. It was probably only about 90% there, which was hardly noticeable without our solar glasses. But, 20 minutes before the 90% being in Chicago, I pulled up our Ring Doorbell camera from back home near Dallas. We all watched in awe as the camera changed from full daylight color to black and white night vision as the 100% total eclipse happened. We could see the streetlight across from our house come on and saw the neighbor's headlights shining. I think it lasted about 3 to 4 minutes here in Texas. Very cool. At least I knew lots of friends and my brother-in-law would share their pictures on Facebook. Just like your family, we NOW know why a total solar eclipse is such a big deal.
It is always a treasure to make lasting memories with your kids.
Thank you for letting me enjoy the eclipse with your family, Jessica!
Thank you for how to cook without dairy. It is beautiful to see the love you have for your family. God is helping you with everything
Thank you so much Jessica for showing those of us that were not able to see the eclipse in totality, what it was like. How very exciting. At the end when you dhow Elizabeth, I cannot believe how much she looks like you. ❤Thank you again, Dee from NZ ❤
As you described the eclipse and showed footage I felt what you were saying. God is so good to give us such experiences with His creation and use it as a means to connect our hearts with Him.
I’m 57 now and I still remember a total eclipse in Australia when I was about 11
I did see the full eclipse here just north of Dallas but i have to say you did an AMAZING job capturing the experience for those who didn’t have the pleasure of seeing it!! Your family is absolutely beautiful!
The magnificence of our Creator.
An eclipse is a visual reminder of our connection to all living creatures on earth. This one earth, one human having a spiritual experience in this single lifetime.
We cannot waste it. So whatever dreams we have, we should honor them. Be grateful to open our eyes every morning, and make loving choices.
Thank you for sharing the eclipse and your recipes! Here in So Cal, we are near the beach, so we didn't experience any of that. I'm glad your children got to see it first hand. The older ones will remember!
🌖 HOW FUN to have these great plates to celebrate the Total Solar Eclipse - and it helps to reinforce what a Big Deal was that event. Awesome.
Jessica, you put together a fabulous Eclipse meal. I loved when the little ones were surrounded you while you read about the Eclipse. Beautiful memories were made! God bless.
What a great memory your family gets to share. I was in a total eclipse about 45 yrs ago and it was amazing! I live in Saskatchewan and we were suppose to have about 45% visibility on this one but we had heavy cloud cover. So thanks for sharing your video footage!
Lovely Ms. Jessica, I used to run Sunday mornings (after Church Service) to come and watch your videos.
Now, I take my time and wait.
Because, I’ve noticed that your videos CALM ME.
So I save them for when I’m a little bit unease. Weird! But true! 😊
This happens with a Bird lover (Ms. Jo Alwood) I follow, too.
Your voices while you narrate or explain the video, is just so calming and relaxing.
I’m filled with so much joy and peace, just listening to you and watching you while you’re cooking and preserving food.
Your thoughts on the Eclipse were so much like mine.
I was so amazed!
I just worshipped God!
I couldn’t do anything else.
I recently lost the love of my life, my 81 year old Auntie.
She absolutely LOVED Moon Pie Cookies.
So, Once again, thank you so much for your videos!
May Adonai bless you and keep you!
May Adonai bless your beautiful family!
❤️❤️❤️
What a wonderful way to bring science alive for your children, celebrating with food and fellowship for the day. They will remember this their whole lives. I'm in Indiana and was amazed by it, wasn't expecting it to be so spectacular. Blessings!
Loved your fun food ideas for blessing your kiddos with good memories of the special experience. Thank you for sharing your eclipse footage and experience. We were only at about 80% so I really enjoyed getting to see what totality looked like.
My husband and I traveled to my sister’s in central Ohio, just outside of Columbus. It was such a great experience. The chill in the air, the darkness, the birds suddenly going silent, it made my soul sing.
I live in southwest Michigan, we didn't have a total eclipse, but it was very interesting, it got quite close , and it did get much colder! We noticed it, I went inside to grab blankets, and the house was pitch black, , looking outside it was kinda a dark ish looming light.... very strange, I enjoyed it immensely. Thank you for sharing your very awesome pictures, and your video. ❤❤
Totally agree with the memories, we don’t always remember gifts but we remember who we were with and what we were doing and especially what mum made. Loved seeing the footage, where I live in England we didn’t get any of the eclipse where we are x
Gabriel got some great shots! What a fun video.
You made such a special day for your kids! Good job, Mom. I felt the same about the eclipse... How great could it be? We had a partial eclipse here in Maine a few years ago and it was not that exciting. My husband wanted to drive the two hours to totality to see if, so we did... We found a spot off a side road with mountain views of the White Mtns. And WOW...I an still speechless recollecting it. It blew me away. It was so AMAZING and I did tear up. My kids loved the experience too, even the three year old! I'm in awe of God and his power.
I totally understand the spiritual connection to the eclipse. We live in Texas and were able to experience it as well. I was able to watch it with my husband, children, mom, and grandmother. Probably grandma’s last one. So, that was super special. Thanks for sharing your experience!😊
My 3rd eclipse, folks in Tx said the same thing "I get why you people travel all over to see eclipses" so marvelous for you to show the darkness and 365 sunset, just seeing a picture of an eclipse doesn't do it justice. It is a spiritual, visceral experience of the power of the natural world. After I saw my 1st I said - when can I see another!!!
Jessica I love the way you create and do all of these recipes yourself. You are so very creative and health conscious. It all looked delicious.
We drove a few hours in 2017 and it was amazing. We knew we wanted to experience it again. Lucky for us my sister moved to Texas 2 years ago. We drove 22 hours to get to her house this time. So worth it. Such an amazing experience. In 2045 it will go right over us, if we stay where we currently live. Can't wait to experience it with my future grandchildren.
Thank you do much for sharing your video of the eclipse. I live in Ontario, Canada and we had about 97 percent. It confused my dog and cats when it began to get dark. But it was cool to see. My grandchildren loved it but wished we had totality. They too enjoyed your video. Especially my granddaughter who loves watching your videos. She is 5. We watch all your videos together.
I'm like you, i thought that i had seen a total eclipse, but after seeing one, realized that i had not. In Indianapolis, it was a perfect 75°, and during the totality, it dropped to 67°. Absolutely amazing and a miracle of God. I wondered why there were license plate from many states on the roads. But i get it now!! Couldn't help but think of the ancient people who would surely wonder if the world was ending.
Thank you for the video! Happy Sunday to all 🩵
Thank you for showing the eclipse. Where I live in Toronto Canada we weren't in its pathway. All though I did see it in 1960, exactly 1 month before my 15th birthday. It was awesome.
We drove several hours because my husband had been waiting since he was a young boy to see a total eclipse. One of our grown children joined us and it was just as you described.
Thank you for showing and describing the total eclipse. It’s definitely something that I would love to experience with my family. Your food looked amazing, so much thought and love had gone into it 💕
Wow! I never even thought of making food or snacks for the eclipse. All of that looks great! I bet this was a cool learning experience for the kids about the earth and our solar system! I'm in CT where there wasn't totality but we had about 95% sun coverage here. On another note, I saw someone in the chat on one of the eclipse livestreams making fun everyone who was getting excited about the eclipse or traveling to see it, saying big deal we've had those before. But with all of the chaos going on in the world right now, I found it wholesome to see everyone joyful about something, even if it was "just an eclipse". People all over the world were tuning into the livestreams, so it wasn't just the U.S. joining in the excitement. Everyone (except that one person) was happy! I don't know why that would bother anyone. 🤷🏻♀
You are adorable! Please don't crack your eggs on the edge of ANY pot, pan, or bowl. Only on the counter. Great recipes 👌 & they look so good for the eclipse. Every Homesteader l watch does your pantry challenge. I love it! ❤️ God bless you all and ☦️ many ☦️ 🙏🏻 prayers. Nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and Eucharistic Minister ☦️ 🙏🏻 ❤️ 💙
What's the issue with cracking an egg on the edge of a bowl?
You can end up with shells in your bowl. Cracking on the counter will guarantee you won't. + every chef I've ever watched cracks on the counter. They freak out if you don't. It's almost a sacrilege to them. Lol
Good afternoon my dear friend, what an awesome job you did on the food, what fun for the children and Mom and Dad too!! Beautiful footage of the eclipse by Gabe, it certainly was an incredible site to see!! Have a blessed week!
What a gift for your family!
It was a spiritual experience, and what a gift you gave, to celebrate it and serve your family in such a beautiful way. Thank you for sharing 🙏
Beautiful family and great video! Thank you for sharing. God's blessing over you all
In the Jewish tradition when seeing an unusual natural phenomenon , we say Psalm 104 and bless God, who performs acts of creation and whose might and wonder fill the world
Another wonderful video! I enjoyed seeing all of your amazing fun foods and hearing about your experiences. It got dark here in Alabama too, but not as dark as some places. Gabriel's video footage is amazing! He really did a great job capturing the eclipse. During the eclipse and darkness happening, my mind went straight to Good Friday when darkness fell as Our Savior was dying on the cross. Thank You, Jesus! 💜💜💜
We are in Southern Indiana and had totality too and it was so cool! We spent the day on the riverfront of our little town. Everyone had a great time.
We were only 93% where I live in NW Indiana and it was still awesome! I was apprehensive about the eclipse and at the last minute got glasses for myself and my husband. We both watched separately because he was at work, but talked on the phone a few times throughout and I agree with you Jessica, it was an incredibly emotional experience on a level I can’t really put into words.
I did see the total eclipse from Montréal, Québec, Canada 🇨🇦. Absolutely amazing!😮😊
We experienced totality in 2017 and you described it exactly: it was surreal and other-worldly, and also very grounding and spiritual, all at the same time. It still gives me shivers to remember it; amazing.
My experience was about the same: surreal and spiritual. I remarked to my husband that I finally understood why ancient civilizations saw these as harbingers. We also saw the same prominence in my husband’s electronic telescope. I don’t know if you can zoom in on your photos, but towards the end of totality, there’s another prominence on the upper right side.
Thank you for this. I had to work during the eclipse and though I was on the outskirts of the path of totality we had complete cloud cover here in East Texas. So glad to have gotten to see it through you and your lovely family. Again, thank you so much! I got to see the one in 2017 as well (we were in another state then) and also happened to be able to see it through my husband’s welding helmet lens! It worked! It was amazing. Awesome memories.
I love that you got to experience this. I don't live in the path of totality but I enjoyed seeing the moon shapes that formed in between the shadows of leaves
Thank you for the footage, and your explanation of the eclipse was amazing. You put into words probably what everyone was thinking. You can definitely see the dim lighting all around you. It looks like everyone was indoors with just a lamp on ( only it was outdoors)
Please don't throw your original recipe card away. Some of my most cherished recipe cards are the ones dotted with smudges and stains. I feel closer to those who gifted them to me. Someone will want the originals, I promise. 🙏🙏 ❤❤
Oh yes, someone will absolutely want them!
I agree!!
I agree! My mom passed last April and I have her handwritten, dirty, stained recipe cards. Some of them I can’t even read. That doesn’t matter to me at all! I miss my mom 😢
You are so lucky to have those cards. Being that my mother was blind. I have no cards. And they didn't use cards in my grandma's time. So I have no family cards at all. 😢
@@raynonabohrer5624 I'm so sorry, but you can make some of your own and start a new tradition for your family. ♥️
Blessed Sunday, Jessica and all! I just loved how you made the eclipse into such an educational and memorable event for the whole family! My oldest is 44 and she still talks about every New Years Eve where my husband and I spent it with the children and made fun foods, danced and celebrated as a family. Have a wonderful week.
Thank you for sharing your eclipse experience. We were no where near totality here in Hawaii, so it was really special to see it.
We saw the Eclipse of 2017 in Kentucky. We saw this one in Meadville, PA. The crowd at the park was most pleasant, cheering at totality and the diamond. We enjoyed a picnic with our daughter and son-in-law. 💙
This was amazing Jessica. Ty so much. I totally get it being spiritual. You're an amazing mom.
Happy Sunday! Good morning family! ❤️🙏❤️🙏☮️
Good morning!
Wow Jessica! I imagine experiencing the totality with your family was surreal. I can understand how spiritual it have felt for you.
I'm in Florida at we had about a 70% coverage and that what quite surreal and amazing too.
Many business to you as always💞
Making precious memories with your beautiful family. Love this video ❤️
Good morning! You are such a good Mom! Hope your husband knows what a treasure he has!
Thanks, Jessica . It was raining here in Bristol Va. I have really enjoyed your video. I remembered 2017, and my precious husband came to my job, and we shared eclipse with my coworkers . Aww .God is absolutely awesome!! Have a great week.
Thanks for sharing this footage. I was in the path of totality as well but the clouds completely covered the totality portion of the eclipse. I got to see most of everything leading up to it and experienced the couple minutes of darkness. Very neat and a reminder of the beauty of creation.
Hey! Another Purposeful Pantry fan. I like your "nevertheless she preserved" tee shirt!
Such clever eclipse food! How fun!
You are such a good momma! I love your love ❤️
Thank you so much!!
Thank you, Jessica, for sharing your eclipse experience. Here in Southern California, we saw nothing. I think it is so cool that you created a whole event around the eclipse for the kids. Like a party! What a fun mom you are!
Such a creative wonderful, memorable day! You are amazing ❤❤❤❤❤
In totality you can hold a cooking sieve out in the dimming sunlight and look at the shadows cast on the ground. There is a tiny eclipse in every shadow/light made by the sieve holes. It is so cool to see the wonder of nature. Here in Florida we got to witness it again and once again we are reminded of the wonder and glory of God and all his creations. Where the leaves made dappled lights on the ground, there was a tiny eclipse in every shadow/light and where there was sunshine on my granddaughters skirt while she stood in the dappled light, there was a bunch of reflections of the eclipse also. Pure magic. My granddaughter was looking for unusual ways to make pies to celebrate your son's one year birthday. I'm going to make a bunch of your moon pies for her sweetie pie themed birthday.
This is such a special experience. I loved how you did the foods and your amazement of the eclipse. Thank you for sharing your amazing day!
I love all your recipe ideas for the eclipse! Fun memories for your kids. We watched it here in Ga through x ray film even though it wasn’t a total eclipse for us. Still it was fascinating!
Hi Jessica. I agree-this was the best total eclipse coverage I have seen. We were able to witness 100% of the total eclipse from our back yard (NW Ohio-outside Cleveland). It was an amazing magical moment! Gabriel's footage was excellent-better than what I was able to capture! All that spread--you outdid yourself!! Thank you so so much for sharing this special occasion. Be Blessed. Hugs.
Thank you for sharing and bringing us along for this happening 🤩🥰 So good food ideas, and the eclipse was cool to see too 😎
Love and blessing from Johanne, Norway 🇳🇴
I agree with your feeling of totality. I got to drive out to OH to visit my son during that time. It was truly magical. Thanks for sharing your experience.
I loved watching the eclipse so amazing.
I watched the 2017 eclipse! I was lucky enough to be almost perfectly in the middle of the path of totality, so it was pretty amazing. This one was only a partial eclipse in my area and I was at work so I didn't get to watch it. Looking forward to the 2025 one though! I know my father in law will travel to that one, so perhaps we'll make a family camping trip out of it.
Thank you all the way from Australia x
The next eclipse in 44 will only be seen in the Dakotas and Montana. Plenty of time to plan that one! Great vacation time! You really went all out with the food, how sweet for your children to have such a special day with the whole family!
Brilliant video. Loved the food. Thank you for sharing the eclipse. We were partial here in WA...and even at that cloudy. Great footage and sharing your experience and feelings. God bless 😊❤
I agree with you we live in Michigan and I felt like you so spiritual.
Marvelous fun! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your family and day with me.❤
You are so welcome
I absolutely loved your coverage. Thank uou Jessica! ❤
You are all so blessed to be able to experience it. We had total cloud cover in our 92% region. So disappointing for our 9 year old.
Watching this was a wonderful way to begin my Sunday morning. A thoughtful way to share this event with your children and an awesome fun science lesson Incorporating the sun and moon themed foods not only gave them a fun lesson in science, you made a memory for your family they will not forget. The way you take care of your family is such an inspiration! Can't help but have a happy heart watching todays adventure. Thank you!
Thank you for the experience!
Jess! You are an inspiration for many of us! Loved the food menu
Thank you so much!!
What wonderful parenst making memories!
