An additional hack for tomato paste is to put the remainder in a zip freezer bag and smooth it out prior to putting it in the freezer. When you need a little bit for a recipe you just break off a piece of it and throw it in the pot. Super easy ;)

Kathryn is just so genuine, upbeat, and validating. Never thought a cleaning tips/hack channel would also be such a great thing when my mental health is suffering. Thanks Kathryn!!!

[annecurtin]

Thanks for being here for all of us - you are loved in this community!

You know what girlfriend? It's about time I tell you how much you mean to me. And I don't just mean your content that is always fun and clever. It's YOU I need in my life. All the energy and joy that you show just inspires me. Are you always this positive or do you save it all for us? Well either way it is so appreciated. Thank you for being you!

Love Irish Spring ☘️ and have been using for years on my plants to stop deer from eating my hosta. You actually don’t need to grate it (although it does make it look prettier). You can slice the soap bar 🧼 with a chef knife and, depending if it’s sliced length or width side, it will crumble for easier placement around plants or borders ;)

Thank you for the hug. I needed one. Since getting sick and trying to do everything besides working 12 hour work shifts, few brighten my day. I am a single parent and every hack that works is something I appreciate. So thank you Kathryn. Also your bloops make me smile just as much as your outstanding videos. Air hugs.

I love her upbeat personality. Those dresses look amazing on her!

I use the two-side can opening trick for refried beans too!

[SoulfulZenStories]

I can listen to Kathryn all day. Sometimes I binge watch her videos because she her energy is so beautiful and her content is so comforting. She’s a beautiful person🤍

I used to watch this channel constantly back in the day.
It's so cool to see it's still going strong and looking better than ever! ❤

The shaved Irish Spring soap hack can also be used to prevent deer and rabbits from eating some of the perennials around your yard. I take a bar with a vegetable peeler and just walk around the yard spreading the curls around the plants I want to protect. Works great around hosta.

So glad you mentioned the neck/waistband hack. This works well in places without change rooms. People look at me weird when I do this but it never fails. Amazing channnel!!

I always use that pants hack. I also buy 95% of my clothes at the thrift store on on $.49 day.

Love the Hawaiian roll recipe! We made a variation on that yesterday for mothers day dinner. Bbq chicken, thinly sliced red onions, shredded mozzarella and chedder cheese. Top with melted butter seasoned with garlic salt and a little dry ranch mix. Bake till cheese is melted. So yummy!

[junefont]

I love every single hack you bring to us!! I knew the one about the pants as my dad did that for years as his go to method of measuring lol. He put the pants around behind the neck to place to two parts in front so he could see in the mirror. I am not crazy about Nutella, but you sparked an idea of making those pastries with a little apple pie filling or other fruit filling. Easy dessert option to go with some vanilla ice cream! Oooohhh I’m hungry now!! Love ya sweet friend…your hugs are truly the best!!

Hi Kathryn!I have used the colorful "food umbrellas" as protective covers OVER my flowering beddings plants in my garden. The mesh panels allow water to sprinkle in, whilst protecting the delicate blossoms. My plants grow faster and better with just that little bit of protection and they peek through the mesh as well. When more sunshine or water needs to get in, or the plants grow taller, I simply tip the little umbrellas back. You can pin them down more solidly with wooden or plastic chopsticks, plastic untensil handles ( You can also add a label of what they plant is onto the handle or stick or a cute saying.) If they are worn out after one summer, it is such a low cost for protecting your expensive plants and growing seedlings. PLUS they look pretty and darling too~

You are so loved and appreciated Kathryn!!! ❤

[sarahochoa]

Love that you kept the fail at the end!!!! Thanks for making me smile today Kathryn!!!

[kathypalmer]

I love your videos. Your energy is contagious. I've been doing the tomato paste hack for decades (I'm 61 & started learning to cook at 7).

A variation on the Kings Hawaiian rolls is use 1000 Island dressing, Swiss cheese, corn beef & sour kraut. To with garlic butter & sesame seeds. Instant Reubens ❤
