Pleasant words are a honeycomb, Sweet to the soul and healing to the bones. Proverbs 16: 24 This channel is a legacy for my children. I hope they will find comfort in watching these videos when I'm gone. Y'all can come along while I share stories about my life, cooking, and baking. My channel is " Helen Can't Imagine" because I have aphantasia.
Banana pudding is one of my absolute favorites! I never had it until we moved down South and now it’s a staple of every holiday. Your’s looks amazing. Delicious! ❤😊 🍌
Lovely story, Helen ❤ TFS it. How talented your daughter was at such a young age! I can tell how proud you are of her 💕. I love the yarn scraps container 😊
I love this. I’m originally from New England. I enjoyed the story so much. Your daughter is so talented, and so nice that you have all these pieces that she worked on. Amen. Kindness matters. I’ll get my pages done tomorrow. I’m a little behind. Have a wonderful blessed night. 🥰 ❤
Aw, thank you, Donna. We loved New England. All my ancestors are from the South except for a line that comes out of Connecticut. I enjoy her knitted and crocheted items in the winter! Kindness is important. Yes, I need to do the friends prompt and I'll be caught up.
What a great meaningful page!! Your daughter was surely gifted to be thinking so creatively at that young of an age. Good job momma for supporting her with her dreams and ideas. Thank you for sharing!
Aw, thank you Gwen. I don't know where she got the idea about sheering a sheep! But, of course, I enjoy all those knitted and crocheted items in the winter!
Aw, Panda, you're so sweet. I like making cooking videos. I've been wanting to make this banana pudding for a few months. Hopefully, I'll feel more like cooking! I know I have enjoyed eating it. I'm glad it made you happy!
@Sarcastically60something, Thank you. I loved doing it. In fact, I've loved all the prompts! They're so much fun! Lori June, am I correct on your name? I'm trying to learn everybody's name!!!
@@helencantimagine yes! Good job’ and I too love this challenge it is fun to have a prompt and wonderful to see everyone’s perspective and creativity. Happy happy crafting Helen!
Thank you so much for sharing your fun family story. Wow, it sounds like she was in quite a lot of movies! That is really exciting! Thank you for sharing!
Hey Gwen, I was happy to share her story. I never knew about her until I started researching my family tree. I've enjoyed doing these artisan journal pages.
Hey Panda, Thank you for coming back for a visit. I'm doing fine. How are you doing? I'm sorry I haven't cooked in a while. I've been thinking about an easy dessert. What keeps coming to mind is: break apart an angel food cake into bite-size pieces, layer it with strawberries (fresh or frozen), and layer it with whipped cream or cool whip.
@@helencantimagine I'm doing well, ma'am! Don't worry about the cooking; it's your channel, so do what you like to. That dessert sounds absolutely fantastic, to be!
@@pandapie9012 Hey Panda, I'm glad to hear you're doing well. Yes, it's my channel, but I told you I'd look for an easy dessert for you. I'm uploading a banana pudding video right now. The Internet is slow here, so it'll probably be tomorrow before it uploads! Have a good day/evening/afternoon!
Hi Helen, thanks for sharing part of your family's history. I think your children will appreciate it. She was very lovely and how nice to have this memorialized in your journal! 💛
@@helencantimagine I had someone contact me through Ancestry and she sent me pictures of my step fathers sons who I never met. Saw pictures of them growing up but that was 50 years ago. So interesting to see and out of the blue!
@@DonnaDesigns Donna, start with yourself. Ask questions about your parents. Ask where and when they were born and married. Get their full names. Do the same for their siblings and parents. Ask all these questions about your grandparents. If your grandparents are still living, ask about their parents and grandparents. Once you have dates and places, you can start researching. I use Ancestry.com. There are other places you'd be able to use. Collect documents. Record your relatives and the stories they can share. You'll be well on your way to knowing about your family.
He Helen oh your cousin was beautiful. That was very interesting to hear about your cousin. Did you ever get your meet her? It looks beautiful in your journal. Have a great week ahead
Hi, Helen, Everything looks delicious. Thanks for sharing the Wonderful recipe ideas .Caregiving is a difficult task. Hope she comes home from the hospital soon.🌝💗💕
Hey Donna, She went through the surgery just fine. When she got home, she went to the doctor and ended up with a terminal diagnosis, and was gone for 2 weeks. So sad. Just went to her funeral over the weekend.
Love potato salad with green Olives My best friend her grandmother would make potato salad with green olives And to me it's the best potato salad we live in Tennessee so I was wondering if that might be a Tennessee thing or old southern recipe
Hey @Gserra78, I'm sorry for the late reply. I started using green olives because my husband liked green olives. My husband was also born in Tennessee. I don't know if it's Tennessee or Southern. I just wanted to please my husband. I appreciate you stopping by for a visit. I hope you'll visit again.
Hi Helen. Very nice pages. And nice wildlife facts and memories. It’s a good thing you haven’t seen a coyote up close. They are afraid of human but they will attack your family pets. Glad we have art and journaling in common
Hi Helen! Beautiful collage. I like the Woodland Animals theme. Most of my collages are animal and nature focused. I like how you encorporated the animals that you've seen and other journaling. The interactive tab is really cool. Wonderful stories and memories. I think your children would love it. Great job!
Never heard of poke. I don't know if we have it here in NZ but might be a different name. It's good to know what you can forage for free. Im often munching leaves as i wander around my garden.❤
Hey Arty, Thank you for watching and commenting. I'm thrilled that you gave this recipe a try. I love that you made it your recipe by NOT adding the olives. I'd be interested to know what potato salad you would typically eat.
@@helencantimagine I would have loved it with olives but hubby isn't keen tee hee. We normally have cubed potatoes with chives and mayo and touch of mustard.
I had watched this on my Tv but I have to remember to comment because I love your channel and want to show my support. Can you get a photo of the bird I would love to see her?. ❤
Thank you, Annie. I appreciate you stopping by and leaving a comment. I've really been having fun doing this journal, and it's been encouraging to see what you and all the others post.
