Unopened roasted almonds can.Keep them for 12 months or longer at a refrigerator temperature of 40 degrees Fahrenheit or lower. Store shelled almonds about two months at room temperature or up to a year at 40 degrees Fahrenheit.
Keep them safely for a year or more at a freezer temperature of 0 degrees Fahrenheit. Store slivered or sliced almonds in the freezer to maintain freshness because they do not keep as long as whole nuts.The most important aspect to maintaining the quality of California Almonds is keeping them under controlled conditions.

I keep most things wrapped in towels in sealable hard plastic containers. Been doing it for 30 years. Works well. I tried the herbs in water like flowers thing but kept spilling them and getting water all over the fridge.
Wonderfull and amazing video my friend thumbs up i enjoy with all your videos always
Me ha gustado tu vídeo. Muy buen trabajo. Es un placer contar con canales como el tuyo. Like

So basically don’t refrigerate anything so go to the grocery store everyday and buy what you want to eat that day… got it. Who has the time?
Bring in the morning and eat it before the evening all nutrients will directly get in to your body
No need to say thanks
I cant wait until i have my own place so i can do this.. my family freaks when i do things differently.. example they use the criper drawers for their nasty deli meats and cheese… the fridge if full of their food and it makes me sad. cant wait to move out
Every single thing you said/showed was crucial for me. I literally had to go move potatoes away from onion, throw my herbs in watering jars, put the lemons and limes into the fridge, unpackage my garlic and change the humidity settings. I loved the whole thing
The apple will turn into mummy if I left it outside fridge for 1 month. Not all place have cool room temperature.
Freeze bread to last longer my family done it for generations
brightside: chocolates in room temp
Me: NO in the fridge!!! >:(
Great video, thank you! Do you know the best way to store radishes?
Great storage tips! I love your idea of wood to raise the jars in the back:)
I swear it feels like I’m the only one who eats veggies and fruits in this house they always come in big amounts so they’d always go bad before I got to them all
My climate is hot, and humid in the summer! In the bags. How long will the dry roasted nuts last after you have sealed them?
Awesome ideas dear Mari! Everything looks so easy accessible and well organized. Thanks for sharing such an amazing video! Thumbs up people!
Where did you get the jars that you put carrots & celery in refrigerator? The ones with a white lid. Thank you.
This couple is cute in non annoying way. Love the cute couples on YouTube!
Great tips thank you so much!! I’m new to your channel hi I was wondering what brand of jars with the white lids you use? Thank you in advance!
What if half the water melon is used and other half to be used later. Where do we store it?
Bread: if you don’t make a lot of trips to the store. Buy a couple extra loafs and freeze them and they are just as fresh. Always save your bread bags and if you don’t eat the loaf right away, freeze half. Also the bread bags are great for wet paint brushes, I once used a brush for a couple of weeks this way. You save energy ( hot water ) by not having to wash everyday.
You guys are doing it all wrong you should have a kitchen in the garden
Don’t throw away the ends and skins of vegetables. Store it in a ziplock bag and freeze it. When it’s full boil it for vegetable broth
I rinse my berries, dry them and mix them up in a Gallon size zip lock bag and freeze them for smoothies
IMO citrus does best in my fridge. Otherwise it molds. Also it stays juicier than on the counter.
Number 11
Me: Um, Excuse me, But I see number 12 there
Number 12
Me: You have repeated number 12
Who eats an apple halfway and saves the rest for later? -_-“
Citrus fruits gets very dry when left out ex) limes getting super hard & they taste best cold! Fridge is fine:)
Wow! Thank you. Very helpful, and BTW you two are a beautiful couple.
Loaves of bread will keep for months if you freeze them. When needed just let them thaw at room temperature, they stay amazingly fresh.
wow great idea my friend thanks for sharingzen, happy Friday
In my house (India) I have kept the things in the thumbnail oppositely.
I don’t know how to explain that more properly xD.
I don’t intellect much nowadays.
#6. * I DISAGREE, I PUT MY ITALI PARSLEY IN AN ANTIQUE CREAMER VACE AND PUT IT ON MY COUNTER AND IT WILL LAST FOR 2 WEEKS,,, I LIVE IN WEST VA AND RUNNING TO THE STORE TAKES AN HOUR SO BEING ABLE TO STOE MY FOOD IS THE KEY
Thanks for the information. It is very helpful. I hate when my fresh produce goes bad.
very nice perfekt
Great tips! Just to make sure garlic and onion are not stored next to each other, otherwise, garlic will lose it’s a strong taste
Always store chocolate in your purse where it’s readily available.
Thanks. I extend the life of celery by wrapping it in aluminum foil in the refrigerator. Or, if it has already wilted & softened up, placing it in cold water will give its crunch back. ♀️❤️
Thank you for this video. It popped up when I was needing to research food storage. I learned so much here that no further searching is needed. ALSO! Avocados have been such a problem for me and who knew you could put them in the fridge and let them ripen later!?!?!!!
Being vegan and single means the best storage so I don’t have to shop as often.
i checked your videos.
please do check my channel and videos for delicious indian recipies.
Do subscribe my channel an din turn i will subscribe you back,hope that we support each other.
Hi Erin you guys are great. I actually soak my berries (all but rasberries) in a 1cup vingear:3 cup water solution to kill off any bacterious spores off the berries, which is usually why they go bad so fast … I still try to eat them first tho, because even after cleaning them with the vinegar solution, they still tend to go bad before my greens ♀️. Hope you like this trick
Berries tend to do best if you put them in the fridge in hard after washing
I love this, it’s so helpful! I will be rewatching again in the future.

Why are you storing eggs in the fridge?
When you go to the supermarket, do you find eggs in the chilled section? No
Do eggs rot while being sat upon by a hen? No
Do you generally cook chilled eggs? No, you want them at room temperature
In short, don’t put eggs in the fridge door, back anywhere!
Thank you for sharing your tips & tricks! This video was so informative and I am one to not store things properly all the time. It will def help w storing my fruits and veggies! Thank you & your fridge is amazing!!! It just looks so easy to store and see everything. Life goals—more kitchen towels and new fridge lol great job
Hello, Mari…these are great storage ideas…like you, we have very little storage space in our kitchen…we have installed shelving units in our closets…we nailed our measuring cups on a wall near the sink, in order to have easy access to them…like you, many items that we use are in labeled bottles…thank you for your tips, and enjoy your weekend.
I’m so happy to have discovered your channel! I’ve just moved to a new house and need to organise my new kitchen. I love the wooden block in the cupboard to raise up the jars in the back. Great idea! I’m going to browse through your videos to see what other tips and tricks you have for us. Thanks!
I’d like to say thank you so much this video helped me with organizing my food for the first time in my life actually I’m trying to eat and have my daughter eat more healthily and naturally so to figure out how to allow our fruits and veggies and other important food items to last longer was so great thank you so much for this learning experience you’ve gained a subscriber
Good info here. I dont have a fancy fridge so I put my veggies in a tub in the bottom of the fridge and cover them with a damp tea towel. This works well.
Nice video sir. Short and not full of bs. Thank you so much.
Can you freeze all this stuff and bananas? Or prepare them then freeze them then take what’s needed on day to day basis? And if so how long is it good for?
I try to avoid food waste by keeping track of expiration dates for cans (no more than a month past), buying meat within two days of eating it (it helps that we don’t have a standalone freezer, though we could use one in case of lockdown), eating fruit within three days of buying it, eating leftovers within five days, if eggs get too old (no more than 3-4 weeks past best by) use them for coating, and most importantly DON’T lose track of what I have (don’t push to the back of the fridge, don’t stuff closed snack bags in a corner and forget about them, etc.). Storage may be great, but a continual fresh supply is even better. Recently, the only things I’ve had to throw away is a bit of chicken that was lost, a can due last November (I checked the date first), and hot dogs that were a panic buy.
Thank you for the vid. Its very helpful during lockdown. I seriously dont know how to keep this things fresh.
It looks wonderful Mari! I like using glass, I have some, but most of mine are in plastic containers like Oxo good grips, the pop top containers. I wish I could find cute matching jar lids like those you have in my supermarket, love them! Thanks for sharing and have a blessed day! -Stacy ❤
But, bananas ripen when you store them in a dark place, but it keeps them fresh.
Exelent very good.Likkee I subscribe me.You visit my channel and subscribe you
Excellent video!! SORIX showing love and support to your channel..

Anybody know how to store corn and beans so they don’t go bad so fast?
Keep in a cellar! How many people have a cellar these days?

I was always told to store produce as you find it in the store.
The way you have your jars is so Martha Vineyard. Both useful and beautiful. Don’t forget to visit my channel.
Store lemons wrapped in newspaper and keep in a plastic bag inside a refrigerator
I came across your video looking for something else and I’m so glad I watched this video. Thank you for all the helpful tips. I also waste a lot of fruits & veggies. I did not know about a lot of things you explained. Thank you
Loved this video! Thank you for all the good information. Just a note: I read recently that it is better to keep cucumbers on the counter. I have been doing that and it has worked better for me.
Remember always wash fruit and vegetables before storing. Dont buy too much food unless you can freeze it before it goes off. Food is precious and you don’t want to waste anything.
I did not know that about tomatoes!! I’ve been storing them in the fridge forever. I’ll be changing that on my next grocery run. Thanks for this very informative video!!
Get up 1 hr before ur regular time and prepare ur food…. Stop using stored fridge food. Don’t eat leftover food…
Your so organize, I love it everything is label and neat
Amazing video as always! I have read places that berries shouldn’t be washed until ready to be eaten, I find they don’t rot as quick this way! Also I love my green onions and want to share that chopping them up and storing in container lasts very long or if you don’t want to chop them, put a moist paper towel around the green onions every couple days to keep fresh:)
Great and useful tips!! Thank you for sharing, thumbs up.
Thank you! Thank you!
Finally somebody who addresses living in a hot climate and baking!
My next pet peeve is “room temperature”
Excellent Video! Wanted to share it with others on our tiny YT channel with full attribution, but no Creative Commons on this one Is it possible for us to share it? Thanks so much. Two 80-year-old vegans!
Well Mari we live close by. We are at the border of Slovenia and Croatia, but also miss Boston a lot. Great ideas, you gave me some good tips. Keep up a good videos.
Basil grows well with tomatoes! Basil keeps pests away from the tomatoes and the tomatoes give the basil nutrients.
I ferment some foods or dehydrate them if I see them not looking so good. Then when I want to slow cook a roast, I put them into a crockpot with my fermented vegetables, herbs and it is delicious.
Estoy impresionada, tengo un pepino guardado envuelto en una toalla como dijo y ha durado aprox un mes en buen estado! Igual mis tomates y papas duraron al menos 3 semanas frescos, las espinacas duraron dos semanas, muy buena información para cuidar nuestras frutas y vegetales y evitar el desperdicio.
do you freeze or refrigerate your vegetable scraps while you wait to get enough to make your veggie broth?
My mom does all of this… one more thing for leafy veggies, wash them dry them then put in an air tight container and put paper towel between each layer of the veggies to trap all moisture
I can’t believe I’m just seeing this video… how did I miss this one? Anyway… this is THE best and most informative video ever!!! OMG.. I have literally been trashing produce and getting pissed off at the stores for no reason except that I’m such a dumbass when it comes to produce! Well.. not any more! Thank you Jasmine! You rock!
Some of this tips actually work, I had used them before. I’ll try the others that I didn’t know thank you so much!!!
Now I don’t feel like the world is ending! I’m going to try all of these. THANNNK YOU!
Thank you for your beautiful, helpful and informative videos. I watch you guys everyday on Instagram and love your story!
OH MY GRAVY, THIS VIDEO WAS SO AMAZING, AND TAUGHT ME SO MUCH. UNFORTUNATELY GROWING UP I WAS NOT TAUGHT TO DO THESE THINGS BUT THIS VIDEO WAS EXTREMELY HELPFUL AND I APPRECIATE IT SOO MUCH! THANK YOU!
i like keeping fruits on counters but it attracts fruit flies:(
Chocolate should be store in my belly ♀️♀️♀️♀️
I wrap leafy greens in a damp kitchen towel and then put it in the fridge. seems to keep it fresh much longer
For herbs, I put them in water in a cup in the fridge too but I add a plastic bag over it with a rubber band around it and it lasts way longer
Contrary to popular opinion, refrigerators are cool but not that dry. Water tends to condense inside when youu keep opening the doors. It also depends on how high the ambient humidity is outside.
Not to be an adult or whatever but I got uncontrollably excited seeing this video lol. I recently went vegetarian and am slowly gonna transition to a plant based diet and this is the biggest help ever!
I’m an 80+ year old lady who has really enjoyed your video. So many of your suggestions are things I’ve never heard of before. Thank you for this informative show! ❤️
Hi dear Mari! Love the wooden piece that has helped for the jars to be seen clearly! I also like the labeling system! BRAVOOO! You are a great housewife and organizer! I wish I could arrange my kitchen products in a similar way! Alas, my rented apartment has such narrow and dark cupboards that I have to start using push-button lights to see what I have and what I don’t LOL!!! THUMBS UP and thanks for sharing your cute kitchen organizing ideas!
U got alot of cupboard space
Great idea to recycle jars.
Tfs hun
Don’t forget to stop by my channel
Thanks hun
We have a very small fridge & freezer, with ONE overall temp control. No way to set humidity in the drawers. So maybe do some tips for those of us who have to live with very basic appliances. We are in a senior apt and can’t change these things out. A challenge for you!
I keep my mushrooms in a brown paper bag. They last forever!
What is your experience with food waste in the kitchen? What is your opinion? What is your story? How do you avoid it?

I sub and bell my friend #1569❤️ sucess for you❤️ have great weekend
I could have saved a lot of money and just not have bought a fridge
The ones I’ve been storing wrong: carrots, flour and oats, melons. Also, I’ve eaten waaaay older leftovers than that lol. I’ve had food poisoning once: from a restaurant. Trust your own judgement. If it looks and smells okay, it’s probably okay.
I watched the whole video on how to store grapes, and you didn’t go over GRAPES!!!
I think that food should come with written storage instructions from now on.
YOU’VE LEFT YOUR FRIDGE OPENED FOR TOO LONG, GF.
BRILLIANT REVIEW. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME.
2:23 A lot of counties don’t sell paper bags. I’ve got a solution I’ve been using for years now. Save these and for example lettuce in a plastic bag where you put a piece of kitchen paper in. My lettuce stays fresh for up to two weeks.
After I opened the bag, I refresh the paper.
Me encantó la idea de poner una madera para poder ver lo que hay atras…. Yo siempre me pierdo… Y lo de usar los envases reciclados.. lo intentare.. me encantaría tener todo organizado como tú…
wow, I always store my onions with my sweet potatoes! glad to see this video,
Tell Dusty he made me smile re Tractor Supply Co farmer buckets as I have tons of stainless steel buckets & bowls as have always used them for our animals as plastic isnt good for them!
This was great… Did you know you can VACUUM SEAL and reuse regular glass produce jars? Place jar in a large vacuum cookie jar. Vacuum both items together and do a quick release of the vacuum. You should hear a pop of the jar sealing and observe the indent poped down. I steep my lids in boiling water before sealing as this softens the rubber seal. {dry lids before sealing } This method works for flour/ corn starch… Jar in jar method prevents products from damaging your food saver. Kilner jar can also be vacuumed. Have a look on youtube also. Seeing is believing for some…
Kindness your way

Oh my, in the caribbean i swear everything is stored in the fridge♀️♀️
Great job my friend:) I store my nuts, seeds, raisins, and some chocolate especially for cake and decoration in the freezer or fridge for longer storage life!
love you guys!!! where did you get your cute bracelets?? Especially the one with gold tassels…sooooo cute!
Im sometimes clairvoytant, and I keep seeing motherhood on you in this video. Not trying to push that narrative off on you if you dont want it, but I see you being a mommy.
I love your video. What about cabbage, how do you store and preserve cabbage?
Wonderful Helpful Video, I would like to share that I cut up old T-shirts and use them instead of towels, serves the same purpose, saves money, and decreases carbon footprint.
I keep onion and garlic in the freeze but they don’t ruin them…all time fresh….also the mushroom…I cut than frozen and after that store in ziplock bag….
Do you buy your dried bean, quinoa, buckwheat organic? I’m having a hard time finding these organic items in bulk
JUST got a buncha stuff from Aldi this aft, my fridge is full. But I’m afraid it will spoil before I can get to it!:-( No 1 I do keep taters and onions together. DARNIT.
Wow amazing organization, and I like the way all the glass jars look
Wow that’s so clever of you…our mom keeps all her spice jars like that….plzz SUB us too to support us v r twin sisters…subbed you already
Awesome couple!! I’ve stored my potatoes separately from onions. The bucket idea is a good one, however two of them would be best.
I was actually looking for this kind of tips for a very long time so this video is exactly what I needed. Thank you so much! You’re adorable:)
I usually leave my honey in a glass jar on the stove. Otherwise it gets crusty and weird.
i was wondering why my avocado didnt ripe at all lol i threw that shit straight into the fridge last time and fucked it up! XD damnnn
greath fantastic jod
thanks for the inspiration
left a canned like
How long does this storage system last? Is this good for long term storage or short?
Thank you for the tips, new to your channel, looking forward to watching all your videos
Never ever fully wrap bananas, only wrap the stem. If you wrap them completely you’ll trap ethylene gas causing it to ripen faster.
My home grown organic butternut squash lasted for six months in the kitchen. The last squash was a little drier than the ones eaten fresh in October, but still tastful when cooked.
Do you wash all of your veggies that are in the fridge in advance?
you guys look super healthy. You guys eat healthy. That is my dream one day…..to have a kitchen like yours, be super fit, happy, and healthy.
I keep my quinoa, buckwheat in glass mason jars and vacuum seal them. They keep fresh for a long time. All my pasta in wide mouth half gallon jars and vacuum sealed. I don’t store anything in it’s original packaging.
Such a fresh, young face with fresh ideas. I liked many of your ideas but submerging vegetables in water WILL make them last longer but the water will leach nutrients from the produce. I guess unless you also drink the water you would lose nutrition from the leaching.
Another comparison would be boiling or nuking your vegetables in water, much nutrition is lost. Canned vegetables look awful because they’ve been over processed and over salted and I highly doubt there are many vitamins left that didn’t go up in the steam.
Sauteing your vegetables is a much healthier way I’ve found to prepare your veggies. Now this is only from what I’ve read over the years and maybe some of these ideas are now passe but they still make sense to me. I don’t even trust our water any longer and always use a Brita filtration system for all water for drinking and cooking.
Thank you for the nice video you’ve spent time preparing.
Also, chocolate. The only time I get the white film is when I keep it at room temperature.
I always have some dark chocolate for a snack, and I keep it in the fridge, where it never goes white.
Potato’s shouldn’t be stored with onions and garlic. Onions and garlic don’t like the gases that potato’s emit
So kale you just keep it in the drawer loose like that? I see a lot of people suggest keeping in a plastic bag with paper towels I am so tired of people recommending using paper towels and bags! I’d like to not be wasteful, but also keep greens fresh and crisp. So what exactly do you do with your greens?
Also, one more question what CAN you store apples next to? I’ve watched a lot of videos from different sources and they all say don’t store apples next to [insert any produce item here] haha do apples need their own private section or separate basket for storage?
Thanks so much!:)
Do you ever soak, then dehydrate your nuts? I have found that this keeps mine fresh in jars on the shelf, as well. I live in the hot and humid US South
i sub to chanel, thank u to sub back, hope that we support each other!!!
You can put kale in water too. Basically anything with stems
Keep your tomatoes out, but if you’ve grown them yourself put them in the refrigerator? I’ve tried both, & found they rotted much faster when left out than they shriveled when left in. So I leave them in.
When you set your fruit they still have moisture on it, on a towel will it absorb the detergent that the towel has been washed in?
Hey there, BrightSiders! What’re your favorite salad ingredients?
You are promoting too much of plastic usage..
Please don’t….
Great job. I like the simplicity. I will be doing this shortly. Good system!
Great video. But yes the latest silicone reusable bags are just awesome, we have a product review video too on our channel for more info on them. Yes available on Amazon. Makes life very easy with loads of savings in terms of money, space and importantly the planet too.
Great video. You can actually drink the celery water good for aiding with reducing high blood pressure etc
In short, store food in your batcave where it is cold and dark
I’m so late to the party, but I just want more info on that aloe + succulent bowl in the background. Gorgeous.
What about chia seeds and milled flax seeds? In mason jars in the pantry or fridge?
I can feel the health trough my screen when you open your fridge
Thank you very much your videos are awesome I am eating more fruits and vegetables in my diet Your family is adorable Saludos de Peru
I just got my first ever imperfect fruit and veggie order delivered today and your video has helped me immensely in learning how to store most of my produce. Thank you so very much for a well done and informative presentation!
Hi Folks, loving your channel quick question do you eat Pasta, olives, chillies or jalapenos?
Great video! One more tip: add two tablespoons of white vinegar to a bowl of water. Dip all your berries and fruits in this then let them dry on a clean towel before putting into the fridge. It kills the bacteria that causes them to rot. They should last longer. You won’t taste the vinegar once they are dry.
Bravissima cara amica! ✨✨ LIKE#1 Ciao, buon weekend!
Nope. Cilantro only stays fresh if it is in a glass you can see through of cold water left inside your fridge. Change water every 2 to 3 days until used. I’ve tried it all and this way truly works
Thanks I enjoyed all your tips and learn some new ones like the potatoes one! I also use a machine called the Berry Breeze and it helps food last longer, especially the greens herbs.
After dehydrating buckwheat, do you then cook as directed on pkg?
Basically everything you buy needs to be stored in a cool dry place…pantry
If you wrap salads in some wet kitchen paper, they last longer. Kale can be washed and frozen in a bag without the stems. It crumbles easily when you take it out to use on salads or in smoothies.
I am searching related to my study but i find it it really helpful
So GOOD My Friend:).. Great & Nice video! Thumbs UP.. LIKE.. Visit US
Thank you I learned so much from this video that I didn’t know before and I’m going to start using these tips
so very helpful for college students who’re towards the end of college and eating real food and want to start storing it (searched this video after I found molded figs)
From what I have heard Milo yiannopoulos likes black muscles.
I bought roasted whole almonds(not salted) n it comes in a resealable bag. you need to tear the top part off in order to use it like a resealable bag. since, I wasn’t consuming it just yet(I have some still left from my previous purchase), I just throw that exact bag in the freezer. Fast forward to almost a month, I now opened the package only to find lots of the almonds being bad. (I bite them into halves to check and noticed that a lot of them had dark brown centres/cores)
1) Does my act of storing them that way contribute to rancidity?
2) should I have stored them in airtight plastic containers?
3) does frost have anything to do with rancidity in almonds?
thank you I really hope you will notice my questions. I’ve been searching online and I can’t seem to find answers to my questions
Y’all are so Cute together thank you for this super HELPFUL video
I think problem with people is that buy fruit in such large quantities that can’t eat them all. I always stick with amount I know we eat a week so that way not wasting food.
Do you have any issues with your reusable bags molding? I’ve bought a different brand before and had to throw them out. Do you wash them after each use?
I keep my nuts in freezer as they go rancid too soon other wise. Keep bananas in fridge, skin goes black but fruit is fine inside. I keep all my dry stuff in mason jars also but sorry I put ripe tomatoes in the chill chest,at 65 Ive not noticed they are less tasty or get mushy.I also pre wash and dry all my produce except berries.If I wash them,I freeze them and put in smoothies, oatmeal or home made power bars. I don’t peel carrots etc where the skin is the best part for you. Started being vegetarian at 27 and seldom have to throw any food away. Produce is spendy here and being retired I would rather have more money to travel then replacing my produce.Also I put my greens in paper towels to absorb any moisture.
This video seems to be suitable for temperate climates, where you can store apples and other things outside. Places closer to tropics with warm and humid climates have a totally different story.
I let my mushrooms dry a little bit on paper towels and store them in a paper bag in the produce drawer. They last forever.
How do you keep celery hard? Do you keep it in water in the refrigerator?
This video did not address what I asked I bought too many muscles and I want to keep them alive how can I do that? I put them in a bowl of cold water and I took some salt because they live in saltwater not fresh and I put some salt in there to make them happy but I’m not sure if that’s right can anybody tell me am I doing the right thing and if I keep them for a prolonged period of time do I have to add a bubbler machine to add oxygen to the water and some kind of nutrients no I do not want to make them as pets I just don’t like wasting food.
I soak all my fruits/veggies in a big bowl of vinegar+water. The berries last longer plus it removes pesticides and cleans the produce. Love your videos.
Bright side is crazy!!
In one video he says do not wash mushrooms and in this one he says to wash them!!
Like me if you agree
Wow you guys, how do you eat all that before it spoils?! Looks like a grocery store Love your videos❤
Could you two please make a video on dehydrating your buckwheat?! More information on how you sprout them (if you do etc). I just got a dehydrator and would love to hear your recipes/ideas:) thank you for the amazing video!!
