LOL!!! I was laughing so hard at this that it made the kids come running to find out what was so funny!!! I heard Mom say it had a round bottom and then Alex said what I was thinking and them Mom said my next thought. Thanks Ladies for making my afternoon with a little comic relief even if it wasn't really intended!

Alex is so cheeky [pun intended] isn't she? I laughed at her "I've got a round bottom" comment too. I'm glad Alex cheered your mood. I get down in the dumps too. I'm an empty-nester these days.

When I was a child, my grandmother washed me with Lysol and hot water because I had a very bad case impetigo bacteria. Odd thing to use but it killed the bacteria and I was well in three days. She was born in 1898 so she was really from another era with different beliefs in products. I would never put that on my skin knowing what I do now, but at the time I must have been six, maybe seven.

@lisaaab 3 года назад

When I was a child I got poison ivy on my face. My mom put Clorox on it. She was born in 1929.

@johnnabuzby6103 2 года назад

These references remind me of the Windex scenes in "My Big Fat Greek Wedding". Apparently the older Greeks thought Windex was the end-all and cure-all to top all others.

@fishinwidow35 Год назад

I stepped on a rusty nail when I was little and my father had me soak my foot in Lysol and warm water a few times a day for a week.

@dawnyockey1475 3 года назад

Pyrex is also extremely difficult to break when dropped as well! I know! I accidentally dropped a Pyrex bread pan down the basement steps! It bounced, but didn’t have even a chip in it!

@Northern5tar 3 года назад

That figurine with the braids would have been really pretty. Seriously love the indignant expression on her face. Too bad it's broken. We'll never know if she had a round bottom as well.

@amandabell8827 3 года назад

Wow Ladies, what a wonderful variation of finds! I had no idea that terracotta pipe bowls were so rare, I have removed mine from the grandchildren's reach 😀. I have both 'Venos' and 'Lysol' bottles in my collection, I don't think I will look at them in the same way in future! Great video 😃 x

Or a farmer from Germany lived there or got the coin on a trip there. They were commonly thrown into crop fields as good luck charms. I follow some German metal detectorists. The bend could mean it was a love token. Lord of ways it could be there.

@freespirit1636 3 года назад

I absolutely love you ladies. From the first video, that I started watching because I thought it was something else, to this one. However, I sometimes get frustrated. So many times you leave random items behind and I am screaming...BUT I COULD HAVE USED THAT!!!! As a crafter, you endless knowledge and bravery to try new things have made you my new heroines. In this video, I have to admit that you left me shaking my head and not at just items you left behind. Pyrex and lysol are everyday household products in the US. I wasn't surprised to find the pyrex was a baby bottle, but I did think it was a salad dressing bottle. Similar are used to mix oil, vinegar, and seasonings here in the states. Now the lysol history was quit a shock, but the product itself was not. Even before the pandemic, lysol (or some generic version of it) is a must have in almost every house here as well. Thank you ladies for all you do and keep up the good work.

@diannmcdonald4949 3 года назад

Another informative video ladies. Had a great chuckle when Alex declared she too had a round bottom. It is ok Mom for her say that. Lol! What is life if you can’t have a little bit of fun.

@melonybennett3814 3 года назад

Rennet was also used to make a milk pudding called Junket. We often had it as children and I recall my mother using rennet from a similar bottle to the one you found. I used to love it. When I was a child, I was delighted to find that Enid Blyton had written a story entitled 'Junket through the Window'.

Greetings to you both, husband was so happy to enjoy this week's video. I was delighted watching him enjoy your finds. But I must say he LOVES the photography and music, and your HELLOOOOS to your audience as well. It's fun watching the joy you bring to him watching you. He loves the music and photography as well. As for me, well I'm enthralled with it all. When there is a story read that accompanies the find, even better. Can you remember when you were very young having a story read to you, and you would hang on every word. Thank you for the interesting stories. Beautiful finds.

Thanks Ladies, for another entertaining and informative video. You never disappoint us awaiting to see what's next. Gail makes me smile when she finds a delightful item. She makes a sort of feline-ish sound, like a purr, but if the treasure is damaged, the sound goes from a purr to something akin to a puppy whimper. Very unique reaction and solely Gail's. : )

It is so wonderful to "go back in time" and re-watch your older mud-larking/tip-scratching adventures. Seeing you when you're finding things for the first time and being able to follow along in your happiness when finding those items. I love to watch the both of you and the mother/daughter bond you have with each other. ❤ Taking a break from working in the garden and when going through various RU-vid videos, decided to watch a few of your older uploads yet again.

@lindakoester8799 3 года назад

Greetings Ladies. I enjoy watching your UTube and as a mother who misses her 30 year old newly married daughter - I think it is brilliant that you as a mother - daughter team enjoy mudlarking and such together. My thought is that you could fill the test tubes with bead finds and sell them. You could seal them with decorative wax seals. If the test tube is small enough you could wrap decorative cord on the top and use additional cord for a “tube” necklace filled with beads. Love your show! Love your music choices. Peace ✌️ from Sugar Land Texas USA ❤️🙏🦋

@BestSellers2122 Год назад

I know this video is a year old, so I don’t know if you will see this. But that piece of frosted glass you found made me think that you could take some of those broken bottles and cut them to get glass that you could frost. The panel bottles would be particularly good for that. By the way, Alex I absolutely love your word play. We do the same in our family so it’s very endearing to see you do that too.
