I think it’s safe to say that each recipe will feed HALF the amount of people you would normally expect it to. They all eat off dessert plates rather than dinner plates.

Re: Ellie & Jared - Views Are Stale - Tesla For Sale | Part
I've not been watching their vlogs at all lately, but I was just watching the Thanksgiving vlog and it will never not crack me up how excited she gets to "let" the boys play with toys that were once hers. I love Jackson's shade toward Ellie lately "Is it old and dirty?" I cracked up.
Also, I saw on Jared's twitter lately where he said something about her being in her robe all the time. I'm thinking that as the kids age and start casting more shade on Ellie, these vlogs might get more entertaining.

Re: Ellie & Jared - Views Are Stale - Tesla For Sale | Part
I have never even heard of "bottled tomatoes"... Is that a Utah saying? My mother and i CAN tomatoes (and various other veggies, green beans, lots of pickles..) which aren't really in a can but in mason jars, is that "bottled"? I had very low expectations when it came to the recipe book, seeing how grossly uneducated they ALL are and that they were going to be in charge of copy editing themselves. They REALLLLLLY should have shelled out a little cash and hired an editor with cookbook experience. Or at least looked at another cookbook to see how recipes should be printed and what all information they list. But these are the people who were confused as hell over people wanting a REAL sizing chart on Bollie not just a XS = 2/4 chart.

There's no nutritional information on the recipes either, is there?

Re: Ellie & Jared - Views Are Stale - Tesla For Sale | Part
I have no idea but based on the fact that they don't even list how many servings each dish is, i doubt it. Did they include the little time frame things? Idk what the technical term for them would be but the little blurbs that say "prep time 20 mins, cook time, 15 mins total time 35 mins..." bc that is an important bit of info for me when im meal planning.lmmomSD wrote:There's no nutritional information on the recipes either, is there?

Re: Ellie & Jared - Views Are Stale - Tesla For Sale | Part
Oh, and when my mom put up tomatoes, we called it "canning" them, even though they were in glass jars.
"Bottled" tomatoes must be a Griffiths thing.

Re: Ellie & Jared - Views Are Stale - Tesla For Sale | Part
I'm picturing someone having no idea what that means and being like "bottled tomato??" and dumping in a bottle of ketchup Or going to the grocery store and asking if they have bottled tomato.. (bc wouldnt most recipes call for 1 16 oz can of crushed tomatoes, and if you had your own canned, you would just use yours and crush them like they are saying too? People who have canned tomatoes would get it, but people who don't won't have a CLUE what they mean.)lmmomSD wrote:Oh, and when my mom put up tomatoes, we called it "canning" them, even though they were in glass jars.

Lol I think someone said this when Tommy was born but I just finished rewatching Full House and went right to Fuller House (I tried watching it when it came out but it seemed too extra so I figured it might help to rewatch Full House) and I think it’s so funny that E+J’s kids share 2 out of 3 names with DJ’s kids and in the correct order. Even still I feel like Max reminds me of Calvin anyway so it works out

If you are publishing a cookbook on an INTERNATIONAL SCALE you should NOT use regional slag, or if you do you really need to explain yourself in detail.

Re: Ellie & Jared - Views Are Stale - Tesla For Sale | Part
This is why I think it’s funny when people try to argue that Jared could find a decent job with his YT experience. A lot of the projects he has worked on aren’t exactly impressive. He’s no smarter than the rest of them. Suddenly it makes sense why he wasn’t accepted into his program, and ended up selling cell phones.Playsinrain wrote:If you are publishing a cookbook on an INTERNATIONAL SCALE you should NOT use regional slag, or if you do you really need to explain yourself in detail.

If you Google "morning milk" all you get is articles about drinking milk in the morning, or on an empty stomach.Catface2 wrote:Who the hell calls evaporated milk morning milk?

Ellie & Jared - Views Are Stale - Tesla For Sale | Part 41
Penny is in Ellie’s IG story today and (surprise surprise!) they are taking family photos. Funny how Penny only seems to matter during photo days and seems to be missing most others....
I smell a pregnancy reveal in the future.
Oh, and E&J are out to lunch with B&J and Ellie says they actually have their wallet for once and are going to pay. She even acknowledges that B&J usually pay because they “always forget their wallet.” It’s cute to be irresponsible and take advantage of others in their world.
