Just have to ask, but, does any family in the USA really serve up sweet potatoes with mashmallows these days? TBH, just why would that combination have ever been added to any menu?

Oh yes indeedy, many a family. Why? Tradition and probably some people just LOVE them! The makers of marshmallows might also have had something to do with it. Think about the horrid green bean casserole. Campbell's cream of mushroom soup, frozen or flown in green beans that are tough as nails, topped with dried up crunchy onions out of a can. Never did understand where that recipe came from. Must be a depression thing or something. The pilgrims certainly didn't make it up. BTW, turkey probably wasn't served at the first Thanksgiving either. It would most likely have been venison. Native Americans considered the wild turkey not worth eating.

OK. Correct me if I am wrong.
But, didn't DTM recently state that he would only release 2 vlogs pw?
Firstly, to Patrons on a Friday - AND - then, the same vlog publicly via YT on Sunday?
So then, why the hell has he been releasing quite a few others randomly in the past week?
I do know the reason why - all about the revenue, obviously!
But, talk about back tracking, no future planning and absolutely confusing! Well, that's Dan in a sentence, isn't it?

‘I’m so ill I’ve taken to my bed’ but as soon as something interesting happens the illness magically vanishes. Snorts reminding her about a coat to keep up the pretence but she’s already forgotten about her fake sniffle due to having fomo. This is evidence of my suspicions all along, especially Snorts who seems to constantly be ill and upstairs until the one thing in the day happens and he’s suddenly there in amongst it. I think they’ve got their words confused again … renovation/redecorate ill/bone idle lazy.


F you Phillip, I’m going where the fun is laters

he's filthy, just like her. i'm under impression that he just throws everything on the floor in the evening and picks up in the morning the closest/the cleanest looking item.

I've noticed that Fanny feigns illness when all the attention may not be on her. I'm sure there was a lot of hustle and bustle going on around the big feast that she wasn't a part of. Feeling left out, she had to do something to get attention. It's in keeping with her spoilt child personality. Plus, she can not compete with the BIG BOOBS!

Eeeeewwwwwwww! I did notice the jumper was being worn all throughout the day - from cleaning to making garlic bread. So nasty!

However, what skeeves me out more is that hair of his - all of it, everywhere! From the precisely drawn in/powdered on hairline to his scalp, with its shoe polish dark dye, to the scruffy - definitely not sexy! - neck hair and facial hair, patchy and sparse. Blech! He is absolutely the grossest thing on the interwebs. He is just disgusting. At least he pulls back that frizzy length of hair on his head into a fried mass of a ponytail.

People must really not like him or they'd give him a heads up (no pun intended). I'll say it again......growing hair all over your body when it grows in a random fashion DOES NOT compensate for a balding head.

Best of luck to both teams

Finally caught up! Hosting thanksgiving in a house under renovation that has recently crept inside is a lot. Thank you @KyBourbon for the table guidance. It looked lovely. I did not take pics because I was so busy. It would not have compared to your spring lunch pics anyway, but I was happy with it and I now own two tablecloths.

Turkey sandwiches with stuffing (dressing) and cranberries a truly great sandwich
My absolute favourite. Late Christmas Day evening and it always had to be freshly sliced white bread too. Yummy!
Boxing Day lunch/dinner was all about cold turkey/ham/stuffing, new pots and salad. Absolutely delicious.

I think you’re spot on, I wondered that too? Maria was leaving so there must’ve been a buzz around her, she’s no shrinking violet and she was obviously getting special attention having fun in the cherry picker, Natti was preoccupied, the lads were busy and looking like they were getting on well. Lil Miss Daddies Girl probably went off sulking. She couldn’t get in that cherry picker quick enough could she?!

About Nicholas Fairbeggar & patreon
The aims for making his patreon account are: home renovations, travel vlogs, home tours etc. That's SJ's content, she has been a great influence for all these grifters.

There seems to be 2 types of vloggers on ytube, the old time ytubers who made vlogging popular & used the YT platform to create a following & business for themselves & the greedy new ones like Nicholas & SJ who think their unprofessionally produced & edited videos are worth more than the professionally produced & edited ad sponsored free content on TV. Does Nicholas pay for most of the TV & radio content he watches & listens to? Why does he expect people to pay for the badly edited pretentious lifestyle content he creates?

Within the last 3 - 4 years there has been an increase in the number of people who use FREE platforms to ask viewers & followers for money & within the same time there has been a decline of video views for a lot of old time non-begging ytubers. Their views have gone from 50 - 200+ videos above 1 million views to 50,000 - 200,000+ views per video. One of the reasons for this has to be the increase in e-begging which is pushing viewers away from the YT platform. The ytube & influencer career has always been annoying & irritating to some people, begging will put more people off. Even Netfix & Amazon TV are trying to reduce their cost & introduce ads to watch videos & people like SJ & Nicholas expect people to pay for theirs. Why not move all your videos to ad free platforms like patreon & Vimeo?

There are viewers who don't realise they don't have to pay a penny to make these vloggers earn a lot of money. The ads pay for the videos just like the ads pay for most content on TV & radio. Vlogging became popular because of how easy it was for people to earn a lot of money by viewers watching ads. YT became popular by providing a free ad sponsored platform for video uploaders & viewers. Most of these people would not be on ytube if it wasn't mostly free. These e-beggars would say they pay to use the ytube platform because ytube deducts money from their earnings. How do they think viewers watch their videos? Who pays for the internet data used to watch videos? Ytube requires viewers to watch videos online so they can earn their money. 3 online YT vdeos consumes around 1GB of data.

They weren't ever a thing at any of my family's Thanksgiving meals. The first time I'd ever had them I was in my mid 20s - an ex's mom served them. She gave me her recipe and I'll make them every couple years. Never with marshmallows though, blech! Just butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and sweet potatoes or yams.

It's a pity Michael Petherick didn't have you on board.
He should have promoted his Christmas cards 'IN ADVANCE not while it's happening'.
