2024-01-05 21:11:51 +0000 UTCThe owl is so cuuuuuuute! Love the tree it reminds me of sleepy hollow and looks delectable as well, yum!
Jess Meister
2024-01-03 23:15:00 +0000 UTCI love this so much! I remember that you did something similar for Halloween, but it wasn’t a video. Have you read “The Halloween Tree” by Ray Bradbury? I think you could make something similar to the Halloween Tree from the book for Halloween.

2023-12-27 14:48:29 +0000 UTCI’m looking forward to joining my first livestream from Christine! Hi Christine, I’m a big fan of yours! I’ve been telling all my family and friends about your amazing creations! I just lost my mom on November 29 and I recall you saying how you record all your conversations with your mom. I have a few old recordings/video, but now I’m making sure to record my dad every chance I get!

2023-12-27 04:26:43 +0000 UTCI also find that it would be very nice to have an earlier notification of a live stream, maybe three-day advance? It would be nicer and easier for us to organize ourselves.
Heidi
2023-12-26 11:12:29 +0000 UTCIs there going to be a live stream this month? Are there usually live streams in December? If there’s going to be one, when?

Vickie Metzger
2023-12-21 04:56:48 +0000 UTCFun!!! Thanks for the info on how to make modeling chocolate, I'm always looking for it but can rarely find it, except online. I didn't realize it was so easy to make.
Willow Birch
2023-12-21 04:55:17 +0000 UTCSooooo fun! I love the spooky twisted tree with the whimsical snow!! What a fun treat for a party and centerpiece!
Ashley Randolph
2023-12-21 04:47:20 +0000 UTCI didn't know you could do that with candy canes! I love the finished product, especially that wee little owl (I imagine his name is Peppermint) - but I also liked the look of the twisty tree before the chocolate was added. It seriously looked like somthing made of veins. Eww - in the best way! Merry Christmas to you and the captive and all of yours - including the fur babies.

2023-12-20 17:09:46 +0000 UTCI love seeing the titles of your videos and try to figure out what you are going to do. And in particular how you will take it the extra mile. And you never disappoint. With each video I think 'okay, I would have stopped there probably'. And then I watch a further 10 or 15 minutes where you take it to the next level and simply make me smile.
