I could watch and listen to you explain things for days. I have learned so much from you and for that I am grateful.

It’s really inspiring to see someone who shows so much of the “real life” side of things. When I watch other KZreadrs, it can be a disheartening when it seems like they dedicate every waking hour to their home steads. Watching your videos, seeing how you manage to do all this and work full time and have so much going on in your life, makes me feel like this is something I could actually achieve myself one day. Thank you for all the inspiration!!

Becky: Not sure you know but... It is not recommended that you blend your soups in any blender with the center top on. Why? you ask... (I learned this from a professional chef,) You can build up so much pressure inside the container it will blow off the top and spill hot soup everywhere, including on you. So take off the center top, cover it with a couple layers of towel and your hand-- then blend. Your tomato basil bisque looks yummy!

I think it’s the rule for anything but a Vitamix, so anybody who tries this recipe and has another blender, don’t try this. Also, don’t fill it as full as she did. Or use an immersion blender, even better. Vitamix is in a different category than just blender.

That looks so comforting. Thank you for sharing!

This is the first time commenting. I usually watch on my smart TV and don't have the option to leave a message. But I just wanted you to know I look forward to every video. I've been gardening for the last 10 years and I've learned so much from you. Because of you I did do a bit of canning, never had the nerve to do it before. Thank you for all your content.

I find it easier to just melt the butter in the pan before putting in the grilled cheese rather than buttering the bread. That way I don't have to worry about having cold butter.

Thank you so much for this! I love all your videos!!

This was so comforting to watch! Thank you

Also, today officially marks me watching all of your videos! It took me a little over three weeks!! Thank you for all the hard work and amazing videos!! You have inspired me so much!!!

I made roasted tomato soup in the heat of August when I had tomatoes coming in every day. This makes me want to pull some out and cozy up with grilled cheese but at 39 weeks pregnant tomatoes are amplifying my crazy heartburn.

I've been binge watching for over a week and absolutely love all you do!!! Thanks for sharing!! FYI, I put a little mayo on the outside of my grilled cheese, instead of butter and it's SO delish!

I'm not much for these collaborations but I'm working really hard on soups right now. Health issues along with my already difficult lactose intolerance (i.e. no dairy) have brought me to this point. I enjoy watching you cook because you add those tips and tricks that really help me. Anyway, I at least started all 30 videos and was underwhelmed. Crab Bisque??? Weird. The only one I loved was the Dump Soup (a.k.a. Stone or "Garbage"). It was great to see all their refrigerator come out to the cutting board, and they did a good job telling me what order to put things into the pot. I doubt you ever have that much-unloved produce, but it would still be fun to see your version of Stone Soup. These people missed the true heart of soup which is simplicity. Your tomato soup is just that. Basic, whole food, and I'm sure awesome.

Thank you so much. I’ve been binge watching your videos. I love them all.

I look forward to all of your videos! Can’t wait to try your recipes!!

You use fresh ingredients and keep things simple. So Becky, thank you so much. I will be trying this recipe today, since I have my fresh tomatoes from the Garden that because of you I started, and all the other ingredients that I need for Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese.

The soup and grilled cheese both look absolutely delicious! I’m going to have to try your recipes for both. Thank you for sharing!

Looking forward to trying some fig preserves on my grilled cheese in the future. I like adding a little bit of smokeD Gouda to along with other cheese which adds just enough smokiness to it. But one of my favorite grilled cheese had provolone, medium cheddar and a cheese I can’t begin to pronounce or spell. It is caramel color which is a good clue you have found the right one since I have never seen another that color. I found it at Wegmans but I don’t think that store is on the west coast. And the final thing I added was thinly sliced apples. There is a mild caramel flavor to the brown cheese. For me this was a great combo. Once winter sets in it would be great to have a grilled cheese challenge using any cheeses except American to challenge everyone’s imagination.

It is so wonderful that the other channels are starting to recognise how great your content is. Come on Josh, camera time! 100k subscribers was the limit!

The Vitamix makes such a huge difference with tomatoes. Why bother skinning them with the Vitamix? It’s super smooth where the hand blender leaves a chunky skin texture if you don’t remove the skins. I got a Vitamix for christmas this year and was hoping that when tomato season came my suspicion that the skins would be smooth and unnoticeable would be true and it was.
