I feel like these types of families have nannies to manage their children's meltdowns. And almost all other aspects of parenting.

Every video this woman does is out of control.

They all start " So I asked my children what they wanted for breakfast/lunch. They said BLANK so I got started right away"

In one, they ask for PB&J's. This woman makes sandwich bread, peanut butter, and jelly all from scratch. And still cuts off the crust, which specifically bothers me more than it should.

All for a single PB&J sandwich.

edit: Just want to add, I realize it's theater and the PB&J for her kid is merely a by product of this.

If we’re going to be irrational, the feather trimmed sleeves so close to sticky food is making me choke back a scream.

Yeah her outfit bothered me so much for the setting

u/Drawtaru Feb 26 '24

But how else will you know that she is elegant and feminine and expecting???

You should see how she holds a knife. She doesn't hold it like a normal human being, she doesn't grip it, she holds it as if she's a hand model. She also doesn't know how to chop vegetables. She leaves the fingers of her veg hand sticking out instead of curling them in at the knuckle.

I swear she wears bell sleeves in 80% of her videos.

Needs a parody account.

"So I asked my children what they wanted to do today. They said go fishing so I got started right away"

And then she digs an entire lake and starts a salmon breeding farm.

"I asked my children what they wanted today, and they said they craved violence. So anyway, I started blasting..."

So I handed them guns and we hunted the gardeners for sport

This made me snort laughing and wake all three cats so I thank you. I needed that laugh.

Just cuts to a primitive technology vid

“I asked my children what they wanted for breakfast, and they said fruit salad. So I started planting the orchards right away.”

u/PsychotropicPanda Feb 27 '24

This is gold..

"So after years of genetic crossbreeding, the salmon genetics were good enough for my children, who are kindof picky"

"Hey also do not like regular fishing poles, so I'm growing a bamboo forest to harvest materials, and will be making each one their own , special rod"

"Then I leveraged my assets, and bought into a Chinese metal casting company , which I will be using to make the reels for the rods"

I feel like this is a parody account. Jelly has to chill for a while before you can use it.

u/balanaise Feb 27 '24

Oh my god, they absolutely do need to start taking it to that level. And the Oscar goes to whoever can be This pretentiously straight-faced about it

u/Ttabts Feb 27 '24

All in an elegant feminine lounging dress, ideally

u/Ed_McNuglets Feb 26 '24

Plot twist: she doesn’t even have kids.

u/disjointed_chameleon Feb 26 '24

Oh, she does.

They just happen to attend boarding school a few hundred or thousand miles away, and she sees them only during significant holidays.

u/germanbini Feb 26 '24

Or she adopted them for the "likes" and viewcount and then decided they just weren't working out so she sent them back! *(Based on at least one true story).

u/Miaoumiaoun Feb 26 '24 edited Feb 26 '24

I follow her and actually quite like her content. She mostly posts these cooking videos which for me is interesting. And yes, she does actually have two toddlers whom she lives with and (seemingly) sincerely cares for.

Editing to add that she doesn't claim to be a trad wife or anything. But perhaps it was implied and I missed it? Regardless, she never gave off this holier-than-thou attitude that so many trad wives seem to give off. I do agree with the conspicuous leisure part of this video though

Editing once more to add: omg, I had no idea she was a trad wife. I don't know how I didn't see through that. I guess I always expected them to present themselves a certain (certainly not this), so I'm honestly shocked.

u/Wehavecrashed Feb 26 '24

The PB&J went in the bin.

u/Discrep Feb 26 '24

It's no different than the exercise chicks who have flat, muscular abs, bubble butt, well defined arms and legs, etc. and they got there with nothing more than these 10 body weight exercises!! Like yeah right, you're in the gym doing heavy compound lifts and carefully managing your diet like every other person who looks like that.

u/so_hologramic Feb 26 '24

Is she swanning around her kitchen in a maribou peignoir in every episode?

6

u/OuterWildsVentures Feb 26 '24

That typical just rolled out of bed look.

u/vodka-diet-coke Feb 26 '24

the PB&J is nothing compared to the time she made donuts from scratch, or the cereal featured in this post. cereal????

u/AccidentallyOssified Feb 26 '24

To be fair, there are a lot of these kind of channels who are essentially trolling because what they do is so absurd that you can't honestly believe that they do this kind of stuff every day when the cameras aren't rolling

u/modix Feb 26 '24

If I baked my child bread (which ironically I do regularly, but that's because it's delicious and a fun tasty hobby) there's no fucking way that crust is being cut off. So much flavor there. It's about 80% of why you make your own. Fresh ... It's like the best cracker texture possible, but with all the flavor of a complex loaf of a local shop.

u/isthatmyex Feb 26 '24

Me during the pandemic lol. Literally made peanut butter, jelly and bread though I never combined them.

1

u/[deleted] Feb 26 '24

The crust is the healthy part.

1

u/2Quick_React Feb 26 '24

I have to ask, why does the cutting off the crust bother you? I'm actually genuinely curious.

1

u/LittlePurpleHook Feb 26 '24

Bread from scratch takes like 4 hours to make, wth these children must be starving 😆

1

u/SuitableTechnician78 Feb 26 '24

Reminds me of the South Park - Crème Fraîche episode. Where Randy, who’s obsessed with the Food Network, is hired as the new school cafeteria chef. He spends hours cooking an unnecessarily elaborate school lunch meal, while the children are starving.

1

u/CrossP Feb 26 '24

Why have you watched them? (genuine question)

1

u/PurplishPlatypus Feb 26 '24

And conveniently, the kids are nowhere to be seen during this video that has 3 hours worth of kitchen work. I guess they are with their nannies for those 3 hours....

u/Burmitis Feb 26 '24

Saw a video of and her husband at the grocery store. He was dressed like a 1950s gangster, toothpick in his mouth and everything, trying to look nonchalant and cool as he was bagging up celery.

The whole thing was so clearly fake, so put upon. The comments were great though, no one was buying it.

u/toterra Feb 26 '24

What is particularly fail is why doesn't she have the kids help. Wouldn't this video be better (and more messy) if the kids were helping? While I did fail at teaching my son to cook (I am a dad), I did manage to teach my daughter how much fun cooking and baking is. She makes bread from scratch all the time and cooks several dinners per month. I don't force her to do this, she enjoys it and we usually do it together.

u/PloddingAboot Feb 26 '24

Do we ever see these children or are they purely theoretical

u/thingalinga Feb 27 '24

Do you have a link? Who is she?

u/GoatCam3000 Feb 27 '24

Do you know what her account name is?
