It always warms my heart everytime I see you with little B. You're a loving father and always take the opportunity to patiently teach your little girl everything she needs to know. You consistently engage her in play, creative activities and introduce her to the joys of camping and travel, creating memories she will always look back on with immense happiness, remembering fondly her beautiful father and his unwavering capacity for kindness. Matthew, you truly are a very special human being!🥰

Brooklyn is going to have such beautiful cherished memories of her childhood with her dad, you should be proud of yourself matthew ❤

Thank you 🙏

You SHOULD be proud of yourself. You are making the best life for yourself and for your daughter. A bike ride in the park together while dinner cools off - who else has the time or energy or proximity to a park to do that with their kid? Bravo, Matthew!!

Matthew logic is one step removed from toddler logic, and I love that. Pitching the uncooked pasta box into the fridge...LOL. Watching Brooklyn choose her colours was great. AND she was correct that 5 cookies worked. You have built a wonderful home for yourself and Brooklyn, and you have built an amazing community of Nomads. you should be very proud of yourself. I'm proud of you.

I love how the video did come out on a Monday! I had to stop Sarah from mowing the lawn to watch your reaction. You are so welcome my friend. Penny loves her newly decorated eating space. She looked happy for sure. Thanks again for always being positive.

The simple things that we do with are kids are memories..you are a wonderful Dad.😊😊

To ripen fruit/avocado, place it in a paper bag & put it in a warm (not hot) place. Usually, it will be ripe by the next day

Saw your little air fryer and went and got one today. Perfect for singles like us.

Hello Matthew. Wow I can’t believe it’s been almost a year since your surgery. Have a great week!

Hello Matthew and Miss Penny.

Loved seeing you spending time with Brooklyn. Thanks for sharing .❤

Excellent day. Glad you can mark something off the book. Yummy dinner. Isn’t it awesome when kids are big enough to help. ❤❤

Standard milk is code for not homogenized. Back in the day we used to get milk from the milkman and cream rises to the top, hence shake it to combine.

Hello Matthew and Penny! 😊😊❤

Hey Matthew, you can eliminate the seasoning extra step. Cool the macaroni, drain thoroughly, then put in the Mayo and seasoning and just mix in the macaroni. Save the extra bowl cleaning mess.

So, I loved today's episode of Creative Cooking with Mathew! I always pick up interesting tips. And great job multi-tasking!

Use ice cubes to cool the pasta. Just a few, they will melt some, shake and empty

I add sliced olives and imitation crab chunks to my pasta salad. ❤

Cool time lapse at the end 😎 Love watching you install/build/wire stuff as I don't know how to do any of that. Happy to see quality time between daddy & Brooklyn 🙌

You are such an amazing father ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hey Matthew and Penny

Matthew - my dad had a huge back fusion back in the day. Not to worry you but there were certain things he never really got back to (like a good golf swing). That said, he was pain free afterwards once he recovered. It’s probably going to need a mix of realistic expectations and the belief you can be pain free. Good luck!

Hi Matthew and Miss Penny 🚐🐈🌮🐥⛺️🚴‍♂️🇨🇦👋🌭😀

Matthew You get better results if you don’t rinse the pasta The starch on the pasta lets the dressing adhere better. Therefore No soupy pasta salad !! Just thought I’d pass that info on My cable was out a good part of the afternoon so it came back on just in time to see you. Great day !!! Kiss Penny for me Karen from Florida 🌴💕

Gotta love the mango slices, I love them

A great daddy/daughter day.

Matt you need to put crispy bacon in that pasta salad. Funny but I made one this morning with chunks of cheese and bacon

I just love your mini BBQ set up with that largish grill tray. It’s so useful! Everything tastes better cooked on charcoal!

Ok, so my Siri set a timer for you as well when you asked your Siri 🤭. Obviously my Siri has no loyalty to me 😂😂😂. Another great vlog starring the Pirate Princess with co-stars Miss Penny being the cutest furball and Matthew aka Mr Fixit!

Good evening Matthew and Penny!! I love that pasta salad!! I actually just made some yesterday to go with the hot dogs and burgers I made for dinner!!! I honestly love just getting some by itself after it has been chilled for a day!!

Place avocados in a paper bag to ripen them faster

YOUR A GOOD DAD.....

Love watching your videos. Your humor and honesty are always appreciated. A bright point in my day! A day in the life! 😀

Hi Matthew and Mids Penny, Ray from Wisconsin checking in, luv da vids!!!

Matthew what a PERFECT day , cookies and all!❤ What a great dad you are😊

Hopefully fixing your awning isn’t too far off in the future as it will come in handy being outside during hot sun or rain. Yummy salad and maybe the sticker is supposed to go on Grace to help improve the RC logo on the hinge reinforcement? Love the music and cookies came out great Brooklyn is having great moments with her dad when she visits. Have fun, I’m sure Calgary has several parks that you can hang out in and ride your bikes. ❤😊😊😺

I love love your videos Matthew! Seeing how you are with your little girl warms my heart. ❤️❤

Just a beautiful 🎥.

Very nice video Matthew ❤

Now that you have a freezer you could switch to frozen fruit which is healthier than dehydrated.

OMGOSH your little B is so adorable bless her.

Lovely to see you and Brooklyn so happy in your tiny comfortable home xxx
