Everyday Luxury (Day 3381 - 2/26/19)

Previous Vlog (Day 3380) | Next Vlog (Day 3382)

The vlog starts out with Stephen filming himself wearing an empty LaCroix box on his right foot while asking Mallory if she likes his new fashion statement. Mal just sighs and doesn't comment on Stephen's LaCroix shoe. Stephen then takes the LaCroix box off his foot and kicks it away. He then talks about how they have sliced mushrooms once in a while with their dinner, but they never really have whole mushrooms. Stephen says that the whole mushrooms were cheaper when they went to the supermarket so they got those instead. The pan with hot oil then starts sizzling really loudly and scares Stephen.

Stephen then shows the whole mushrooms and Mal putting 2 lamb shoulder chops into the pan while he says "Sizzling!". Mal said that the lamb was on clearance, so she thought that the supermarket probably ordered too much since there was a lot of lamb left. Stephen then says that they paid less than $10 for the lamb shoulder chops and 1 pound of whole mushrooms. He said that if you order lamb at a restaurant they would probably charge you about $20 for it. Stephen then throws the mushrooms into another hot pan and some of the oil splashes onto his hand. There is then a transition in the video to when the lamb is almost fully cooked. Stephen says that he could count the number of times that he had eaten lamb on one hand since lamb isn't something he has have often. He then says that the whole mushrooms remind him of his childhood because when his grandparents would visit they always went to K&W Cafeterias and he always got a plate of mushrooms that were cooked in it's own juices. Stephen then says that "it's own juices" probably sounds really gross especially to people who hate mushrooms.

Stephen and Mal then have dinner consisting of lamb shoulder chops and whole mushrooms. Mal said that she checked the temperature of the lamb, but she wasn't sure if it was overcooked or not. Stephen says that he doesn't really have much experience cooking whole mushrooms, so he just cooked them the same way that he would cooked sliced mushrooms. He said that he decided to cut his lamb into small pieces before sitting done because he said that it's hard to cut food on your lap. Stephen also says that the table they eat dinner on also shakes a lot, so it would be difficult to slice the food on there as well. They both eat dinner and said that it was pretty good. Stephen then says that lamb is not where as cheap as beef is, but you might get lucky and find it on sale.

Stephen then talks about the trip they are planning to go on in April and a small trip in March. He says that they have been working to prepare the content for their channels for when they are on their trip. Stephen says that one thing they filmed was a new GTA Online since they finished the Doomsday Heists. He said that it was the first time that they filmed GTA Online in a while. Stephen said that he told Dan that it would be great if he could finish editing the GTA Online episode they filmed by the first Saturday of March since GTA Online comes out on StephenPlays the first Saturday of every month. But, Stephen also told him that it would be fine if he couldn't finish it. Stephen said that if Dan couldn't finish editing it by that Saturday, he would just tell everyone that GTA Online would come out on the last Saturday of the month instead. Stephen said that Dan didn't give indication of whether he would get it done or not, but he got it done. Stephen says that he and Mal watched through he edited video and it was great.

Kit Kat Flavor Tried: Mainichi no Zeitaku (Everyday Luxury) Kit Kat

Stephen films Kepler and tries multiple times to correctly pronounce "Kit Kat Keppy". Mal then tells Stephen the flavor of the Kit Kat and he laughs. Stephen says that "Everyday Luxury" is not the name of a flavor. He says that "Everyday Luxury" is like a statement or something they write on a mint on a pillow in the Ritz-Carlton. Stephen says that it tastes almost like a regular Kit Kat with more texture and a slight hint of cranberry. Mal said that she could taste the almonds, but she doesn't like almonds. Stephen said that the almonds were so small that he didn't taste them.
