what's up guys welcome back welcome back we're Eamon and Bec for those of you who don't know we
have been working non-stop basically what feels like 24/7 on our new recipe
book all of the recipes we printed or wrote out on those white sheets of paper
you saw in the windows and as you kind of saw there they've all been ripped
down which means they're complete we're basically done making and photographing
every single recipe we have like two left that we're gonna finish up this
week but we are so thrilled to be done and we wanted to kind of give you a look
into what it would be like making a cookbook so we just did kind of part one
of that last week and here is the last 5-6 days welcome back to the kitchen
everybody first I just want to say thank you to everyone for your positivity
about encouraging words on our latest video talking about our big project we
are making this cookbook we are on day four now working super hard in the
kitchen today we're working on a recipe that we think is going to change your
life I'm serious about that we want to have a few pantry staples and this one
I'm not gonna tell you two minute of it it's a dried burger mix or falafel mix
so you can just take all of the spices the herbs the oh it's like everything
that we recommend you put it into a mason jar or into a storage container
then any night of the week you can come home and whip these up just add water so
this is us cooking up on the cooktop here and this is what it looks like
already cooked it looks good but you can also of course put them in the oven
we get it is chewy and delicious when we say freestyle Friday we really mean that
we whip it up so I wish I was just filming that but as he does this he'll
just pretend he's measuring and then he'll go yeah about 1/2 T that's too
much holy that's salty what are you talking about that's wait that's too
salty this is a teaspoon this one already looks better
Oh
No so you like the lighter one because this
one's way less ingredients actually that's why I'm sending him to the
grocery store for tomorrow you ready and I am tackling day five though we've
become more smart with our recipes and we saved some breakfast so that we can
actually eat breakfast so it's early it's nine o'clock we've already made our
pancake recipe is that tomorrow no that looks so good oh it might be one too
much good yeah it's higher than the milk they go higher down a little bit we just
moved everything that's been complete to this one so it's 20 20 recipes so we're
halfway guys 25 and basically I was just saying to a man like would it be cool if
we took everything off this window we move everything over there and then like
the night before so for example today we're doing Buddha bowls they'll be like
right here and they move up with the check mark selector I like it to it so
this one here is a Rebecca Maroni original Wow
it's really helpful to sit down and spend a couple minutes trying to
evaluate how you want to style the photos and what props you need and it
looks like we we still need a few items to get through the day so a number of
you actually recommended we check out thrift stores in last week's videos in
the comments and that's a great idea so we're gonna head to Value Village to see
what they got
plate bowl
like spoon so many options we've only been here three minutes I know this is
definitely legit call yeah there's balls these plates this cute thing this attend
made this thing to put like bread with the napkin I don't know what that is
also this has got to be the busiest Valley Village ever been in my life
I guess it's Halloween but this place is crazy often here shoe number one with
Valley Village props close to 99 99 cents we own that cloth this is our
summer boudoir ball I think I'm gonna eat this right now I know what's gone on
here guys but when it comes to this ebook a lot of people are gonna think
it's all 'if it's this chick when she gets suited up just killing it on the
recipes this is her recipe I'm not gonna show you that but that's my small it is
little appetizers people are asking what we're doing with all the food to be
honest we've it's not that big of an issue for us it really is it and what it
is we invite everyone over and like we've fed him and set some pancakes this
morning so you know but we've been we've been really strategic like I said
earlier we've now learned like make one breakfast make one lunch I'm like make
one dinner and then it's your dinner and your breakfast we learn our mistake with
the smoothies we made we're smoothie though through all this what do you
think of that fall Buddha soul is the best thing around yeah it's insane right
so I don't know why people overcomplicate dressings the dressing is
four ingredients equal parts I could tell you what it is you gotta buy the
book
as you guys are seeing it is one thing to develop the recipe go grocery shop go
Prop Shop make the food stage the food take a photo of the food edit the food
but the worst of everything is what it takes to clean up all that food as if
you just did all those dishes nice try just spent an hour behind the
sink there but you know what my favorite thing to do I can't remember where I
first learned this was to change the words I have to do I get to and it's
pretty cool that we get to do this and hopefully make a living from doing
things like this so yeah I get to do this for my job and that is freaking
cool I get to do the dishes I get to edit some photos right now and
I'm super excited about that floor that sounds like you're really excited to do
it I can't take that away from you
what's up guys good morning III did to do two of the part two series no sneak
to the part two no it is we're expired on our rental stuff so
we're going back to that food group store and we're eating some of these
that we made for they cook the breakfast I didn't know that forgot to vlog but
successful we spent like double the amount of money but we kind of figured
it would get enough because 160 but it's a home with the discount that we're
gonna get right you remember that he gives you a 35% discount if you bring it
back within 48 hours so that's good right
I asked her like why it was so expensive or something like that I'm just like
well you chose all the premium stuff he's like yeah sounds about right
I have a premium premium pal I I'm not a premium spender but obviously like when
I'm picking out stuff and I don't gravitate towards like cool funky balls
over a white flame ball I chose of these two white balls
all right you want to go get a coffee yeah are we literally the same person
are you kidding me right now no need I need a coffee today we don't even drink
coffee I was literally just about to ask you can we go get a coffee we're gonna

okay let's show them this first before anything else okay so these are our
no-bake protein bars and he's remelting the chocolate to give you guys a glossy
finish what day is it today what's up Thursday yesterday it was
super successful today we got up early it's gonna be another amazing day
working on the e-book I think we've been really lucky because it's been overcast
which means that the light coming in has been really
really well lit with no shadows and now that it's sunnier outside we're getting
a lot of shadows so we're actually going to pick up this whole setting and move
it outside excuse me book by the highway our
neighbors are going to think we are cooked
little pro tip if you're wanting photos to look a little bit more robust you
don't to make a lot of food in a little phony how are you it's it's Eamonn this
is Eamonn your grandson yeah and what's the what's the verdict
yeah very nice the best you ever have is it the best you ever had
okay we have completed 43 recipes I can't even get a woot woot we just made
an amazing lentil of some surprise brownies it's just like you know but
it's day seven or eight today and we're feeling it for sure it's all good it's
all good it's all good what's up Texas welcome back to Canada
Texas in my head because we just sold an account to Texas got the chai wallah in
Texas we have got a crazy busy day look at the wall look at the wall there is
eight Wow we're smashing five of those right now
let's get at it I guess obsessed with the shadows now
that we've kind of noticed them so little folder today but here's the setup
hey go brother enjoy that all your spilling everywhere good
had a lot of questions in last week's video about where the food's going where
you bringing that Bob chef freezer and he needs to sign off on the recipes
there are two things we've been fighting about about this cookbook
number one I believe there's shadows inside I know there's shadows inside and
if we go outside it's like overcast enough over in front of our building
that it's beautiful lighting and Ayman never wants to go inside to shoot and
number two he wants to garnish everything with black pepper like every
dish needs black pepper on top or he's not happy and he just snuck some black
pepper on this curry and it looks like trash it was so pretty before I'm right
right no black pepper on the curry dish block black pepper on the curry dish
which photo is better come on some of you believe somebody vote for me just
going through the edits of today's show we're not showing out anymore what I
just want to show them this one that I photoshopped all gangster she's pretty
you see we didn't buy this much veg yeah but we've prepped it all yeah and took
that photo and then made the dish and then stamped it in the money and saving
food we just want to wrap up this video by saying thank you so much for your
encouragement with this new project we've been having so much fun learning
new skills and photography of food and just like just pouring our hearts into
something else yeah it's been a super intimidating process to think about 52
recipes and get your ideas kind of onto paper and then translate them into
photos and it's a huge huge daunting task and at first it was kind of like
let's just do it later let's do it we didn't think it was possible to do it
right so we figured we'd block off the past two weeks and just smash it and job
well done I have to say we're really probably really excited we're hoping to
have it live for you guys by Thanksgiving or at least the holiday so
stay tuned thank you for everyone who's been asking about that we will of course
keep you updated but yeah I hope you enjoyed the behind-the-scenes about this

writing cuz those are not my specialties and I'll be running the business so
