Ok what was up with the geeky laugh at end of talking about the tires. It made me shoot coffee out my nose. Lol.

You both look so young to be so knowledgeable, obviously your both very talented in everything that you are doing. I think it’s just perfect the relationship you have. Do you really agree on everything ? It’s just been so good catching up on your episodes I feel like I’m watching them backwards sometimes. I’ve especially loved to watch the canning and the fishing episodes. I’m learning so much, I can’t wait to watch the next episode, it’s so well thought out. Thank you it’s done me the world of good after being in critical care with covt for two months and having not been able to hardly move or my oxygen levels drop considerably, it’s been like a breath of fresh air watching your programme. Thank you with all my heart.,god bless you both. X

Purple, blue and red veggies and fruits fight inflammation. Y’all are truly amazing! Thank you for being so thorough with your videos. You explain things so well. Thanks for sharing. Y’all are living my dream!

I am so glad I found your channel! I have a fascination about Alaska, and I am going to enjoy it through your channel. Thanks

Couple quick tips on those string repairs- you don’t need to fight to thread the needle, it can be put in the same way it pulls out. Also, giving it a quarter turn or so before removing the needle helps it grab in the hole better. The rubber cement does no good, as you mention. Just spray it with your soapy water. Dish soap (not diluted) also can be very useful for getting a tire to seal to a rim. Also, those red plugs are ‘ok’, but swing by Napa and get blue ones, they seal way better. I’ve made a lot of people happy in my lifetime (several on the Alcan) just from having that kit with me, not counting my own uses.

I have never had to repair a tire, love that you showed all the steps :)

I always forget to add how much I enjoy the music of all your great videos. The purple vegetables are supposed to contain anti-cancer ingredients, so it’s good for us. Your guys show to be health conscience and that is not only excellent for you but for the world. Learn so much from you. Thank you.

So glad I went back and rewatched your videos. 👏👏👏👏

To thicken the broth, add a couple of tablespoons of flour to the mixture...

I have had good luck with the tire repair kits, but I have never used them on a sidewall. If you find that the plug doesn't hold in the sidewall you may need to try using a tube in the tire.

I love watching you cook with all your canned stuff... so much energy! Cast iron I love too... but you will find as you get older cast iron is so heavy and hard to deal with lol

I just found your channel and I’m glad I did! I’ve always wanted to live off grid and having somebody do it for me I can do it vicariously now! You guys are awesome! I have been watching a bunch of your videos and I love how simple your life is. You definitely got a friend in eastern Kansas now! I haven’t come across a video that shows what you all do for money… That’s the only question I’ve got for you now! Now back to more videos!

I’ve said it before on other vids, but you so remind me of my dad, his way of teaching and all the little tips. ‘If you can’t fix it, ride it on the rim and buy new tires’😂 I appreciate your knowledge and that you share it.

Mid Autumn (Fall) here atm in Aus and I'm envious of the snow. Living up the top of Australia we don't particularly have a winter so I'm just sitting here and dreaming of snow.

Very interesting to see you repair your tire Eric ! And the cook seems to be preparing some snack for both of you....

Shoveling snow in shorts. Your dogs are not only beautiful, they are so well behaved. You are right: the stronger the color with fruit/vegetables, the more antioxidants. Prunes, surprisingly, have more antioxidants than blueberries. Stew pie looks delicious. Well done, as EVERYTHING you two do!

Hmmm, your cooking skills are amazing!

Yo are both so very talented and a great couple . All the best. Tony from Thailand

I love your purple potatoes ( and your videos). At +30C it's devine to see snow and cold weather. Thank you for sharing your experiences

I am making it through more of your posts. You are equally yoked. I'm really enjoying following your channel.

With a piece of pie like that it would make a few meals for this cat...

Nice crust and stew pie good eating .

I have never seen a purple potatoes before. Thanks

That stew pie looked delicious.

That pie looks awesome

Trick with the tire kit is if it's a small puncture and you can't fit the reamer tool in there, drill it out with a drill bit smaller than the reamer so you can fit the reamer tool in the hole.

Love your lifestyle and the way you take care of your dogs.

Purple potatoes are high in anthocyanins. Like all colorful veg.

Cool kit + delicious meal 👍

What an incredible woman.......such a great life!

Thank you showing how to fix a flat tire I've never seen how to do it.

Looks amazing! Miss all yer' cookin'!

Wow that pie looked awesome

Oh no yellow snow!

I bet it tastes delicious!!!

Im sure it smells better than Cambells. Dinner looks delicious.

Just saw the root cellar build and now watching your wonderful videos! Love your off grid life. Keep the videos coming! God bless!

Wonderful cook looks delicious

Really enjoy your channel, thanks for sharing

I’ve been watching so many of your videos that you’ve become at least 1 in every 10 suggestions in my recommended videos list 😅🥰

just a tip on tire repair, i always burn the x-tra cement off the plug after i am done, it creates a better seal with the molten glue, and it burns itself out pretty quick.

Totally enjoyed the video... I'm subbing! You inspired me to make a venison potpie and I learned how to fix a flat in a Polaris in a way that even I can do!

I've plugged the sidewall on trailer tires with good success.

This reminds me of growing up in upstate NY. We live in north Georgia now...quite different. Those potatoes look amazing! Thanks for sharing and I look forward to Future videos!!

Preciosa Arielle, among many of your abilities, you’re also a good cook 👩‍🍳 and watching your cooking certainly brings back memories and a faint desire for cooking. Now myself alone I stay for the very simple and healthy food which should include Alaskan salmon.

Anthocyanins in blue and purple pigmented foods are the super healthy antioxidants

Looks good enough to eat. First time watching. Bobblehead sent us over to check your channel out. Will watch some more. Hello from Oklahoma.

Now that is one hearty looking pie!

Amazing color in those potatoes!

Good job Eric and thanks for good tip to fix flat tire ❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍👍

Luv your channel. Keep up the good work.

That pie just won my first choice...now I'll have to make one..beef 😏 all organic..(from the store)..one day a home stead would be awsome!.. learning lots of tips from ya all..ty from Oregon state

Purple potatoes, yes... Yellow snow, no.

I've never once shoveled snow. But even I know to watch out for the yellow snow.

Erica you always come up with something delicious that is so perfect in my eyes and according to what I know which is close to what you do but the idea of it I can taste it because I know you do such a fine job hang in there sweetie keep on working with us and teaching us

Venisen pot pie,,, I love pot pie,,,,

That’s a beautiful meal pie crust awesome Girl 👧 you are smart

When you roll your crust you should salt and pepper it.

New subscriber here. I've enjoyed catching up. You guys age belies your wisdom.

That looks delicious, I’m hungry now. 😂

11:51 You're missing sliceed carrots or baby carrots, mushrooms, peas, corn kernels in that pot pie😜😋👍🏾

Might have to invest in a proper snow shovel soon! Looks like you guys are adjusting to Alaska well.

I love your oven, you both are genuine people. I will encourage you to continue to listen and care of each other I have many hopes for you. Sleep easy!

I bet some JB Weld would have fixed that connector.

What i use when my sauce is too watery, is use buck wheat flower. It thickens like crazy and give a fantastic taste.

I am curious if we can see inside your high tunnel again soon!

You guys could get a Berkey gravity fed water filter for back up water, no electricity.

Looks tasty!

Hmmmm, never too old to learn, being from Africa, I have never seen a purple potato...super surprised. Regards from Johannesburg.

Nice..!!!

Lovely yummy healthy food,.. making my mouth water.... please get some.. onion seeds.. bake in the sunlight (they turn black) n use e'm in your meals, good for your health n gives a good taste. Stay safe.. keep smiling, GOD BLESS. (correction: Fennel flower seeds also known as onion seeds are already black and can be planted or consumed by adding into food)

I came over from Bobbleheade homestead . I've enjoyed your videos.

Hello from Ohio. that snow looks very cold. we got our first snow this weekend. that pie look yummy. thanks for sharing and peace be with you

Bummer, guys!! We've been there done that living in a rural area ourselves. You just have to make adjustments and go on wth your daily life.... Also, beautiful potatoes👍

yum

I bet it was great:)!

Good stuff you guys, looking forward to catching up on some older videos and I am subscribed so I will know when you post something new.

Instead of draining off your liquid, you can sprinkle in some tapioca or arrowroot to sop it up as thickener.

Yum 😋😋😋 that meat pie looks GOOD!

Purple potatoes are awesome! I wanted Purple Viking, but I was too late ordering, and I got Russian Blue (still purple, though it's called blue) instead. I had never heard of purple potatoes until 3 years ago when I learned how to garden and grow my own food. I was fascinated with the colour change when cooking--they start out purple, the water turns turquoise when boiling, and violet when you do baked. I was getting all my friends to watch me cook them so they could see, LOL. Super nutritious potato!

making me hungry !

How I envy their lives

I've never used one of those plugs before but we have had around 6 flat tires s in the past 5 months so I think I'll pick up one of those kits. 11:06 LOL! The meat pie looked tasty. We had Shepherd's pie last night. Basically mashed potatoes on top of meat and veggies in a rue and baked. So good.

Those purple potatoes knock me out.

Watch out where the catahoula goes, don't you eat that yellow snow! :P Love watchin' your vids. Your catahoula is lovely, from a catahoula lover! :)

WISH YOU GUYS WOULD SHOW HOW THE LOFT LOOKS LIKE NOW. CURIOUS TO SEE HOW YOU ARE UTILIZING THAT SPACE???

Expecially-😊

Commercial farmers spray the potatoes to kill the vines before they dig them!

Have you considered covering your front deck? Seems it would cut down on having to shovel snow in the morning. Love your channel!

12:34 Why didn't you pre-bake the bottom pie shell first ? Now the bottom of the pot pie is going to be SOGGY☹️😔 "Soggy Bottom Boys"...I love that song👍🏾😁

Prepsteader Bob at Content Creators told us about you. I came to through my support your way. I joined your channel to follow along. I heard you are from Oregon, I live near Hillsboro. I will be watching more vids.

Another great video Eric and Arial, Arial your a wonderful cook and your cooking makes me so hungry.. have you thought about nitrogen in your tyres? I don't know if it would work in the snow or even if you had a source. But I have used nitrogen in my tyres for years, if you get A puncture the tyre will not go flat a dx fast. But you only need to top up every 6 months or so, but that's in suburban, Victoria Australia. Hug's to you both your dog's, cat's and the poor common outdoor ally cats. Poor things living in the cold barn lol.

Meat pie looks delicious!

Nicee

I lived in Fairbanks in 1967 and it got very cold, but I loved it. Where you are at, it should be more moderate, I hope. How are you doing with all the Quakes going on around you? I hope that your elevation is high enough to stay out of the water.

I like purple kool-aid because I’m health conscious. 😂 Nothing better than working in slush. We keep a ton of those patch kids here. Along with some green fix a flat stuff for our trailer. I don’t use fix a flat on my in town truck but we do on the trailer and ATV That pot pie looked good. 👍

Gimme stew-pie.

11:06 🤣🤣

Just found your cannel. It seems that you have been living off grid for a while and have mastered this Lifestyle.I am eager to find more adventures that make your Life so happy. I have a question for you: I have watched a number of similar shows and I always wondered why there are no kitchen cabinets, no closets and places to put things. It seems to make these cabins so cluttered and busy. I grew up in an other country and I am not used to see everything I own on display.

Surprised they have no kids yet..LOL lots of time for making woopie!!
