And we’re going to celebrate Thanksgiving tomorrow.

And I know what you’re thinking: “Rachel, I had no idea you had a boyfriend.”

00:12
It’s true, I’ve been keeping it secret.
4

00:14
But in this video, you’re going to meet my boyfriend,
5

00:17
and you’re also going to have an American English pronunciation quiz,
6

00:21
so watch all the way to the end for the quiz questions.

Ok guys, are you ready? This is my boyfriend.
8
31443
4361
00:35
His name is David.
9

1291
00:37
Hey guys.

David lives in Philadelphia, which is about two hours away from New York.
11
37935
3508
00:41
But we’re not in Philadelphia, we’re at his parents’ house,
12
41468
2346
00:43
which is in a different location in the state of Pennsylvania.
13
43814
4839
00:48
So, to get ready for Thanksgiving, we’re making four pies tonight.
14
48653
3195
00:51
So, join in the fun.
15
51848
2850
00:54
Yeah, we should roll out the crust probably,
16
54723
1945
00:56
but let’s go check the temperature of the apple pie filling.
17
56668
4953
01:01
So, we made the apple pie filling,
18
61621
1335
01:02
and now it needs to cool before we put it in the pie.
19
62956
2660
01:05
So we stuck it in the garage where it’s cooler.
20
65641
4729
01:10
Where’d you put it?
21
70395
2097
01:12
On the floor, I think.
22
72517
1355
01:13
Over in the corner.
23
73872
1225
01:15
What corner?
24
75097
1273
01:16
- Back there. - Oh wow.
25
76370
1765
01:20
Ooo, this is cold on my feet! Oh, it’s still steamy.
26
80905
4563
01:25
Alright, well.
27
85493
1055
01:26
Let’s roll out the pie crusts, and maybe that will have cooled down by then.
28
86548
5175
01:33
Alright.
29
93104
1378
01:34
We’re going to call that good enough.
30
94482
1542
01:36
So, this is an apple, and we decided
31
96049
1840
01:37
that we were going to put it in the ones with the bigger edge.
32
97889
3330
01:41
Here’s one.
33
101219
1130
01:42
Yeah, the pumpkin can just go where ever.
34
102349
2787
01:45
How about this? This can go too.
35
105136
2066
01:48
We’re doing so many ‘can’ reductions: This can go there, that can go there.
36
108237
7304
01:55
Alright, we successfully rolled out the pie crust,
37
115541
4062
01:59
and now we’re going to stuff the pies.
38
119603
1857
02:01
That was totally the wrong verb.
39
121460
1527
02:02
We’re going to to fill the pies.
40
122987
2395
02:05
Stuff the turkey!
41
125382
940
02:06
- That’s right! They’re in there, right? - Yep.
42
126322
2071
02:09
Here, I’ll move this.
43
129964
1414
02:11
Here’s what the apple pie filling looks like.
44
131403
3470
02:14
It’s really quite delicious.
45
134873
2999
02:17
What are you working on there, Annabelle?
46
137872
2069
02:19
I’m making the dressing.
47
139941
2551
02:22
I’ve got the toast all ready, and cutting it up,
48
142492
3894
02:26
and then I’ll add the onions, celery, and butter.
49
146386
4229
02:30
And you’re actually making it tomorrow, right?
50
150615
2681
02:33
I’ll make it tonight and let the seasoning mellow.
51
153296
3703
02:36
Nice!
52
156999
1122
02:40
Oops. That’s flour.
53
160271
2367
02:42
In the mean time, our apple pies came out of the oven, they’re looking pretty good.
54
162638
5580
02:48
They’re from the 70’s.
55
168979
1243
02:50
- 70’s, mom? - I love ’em [THEM reduction!]
56
170222
2367
02:52
You think they’re from the 70’s, mom?
57
172589
1633
02:54
I think so, yeah.
58
174222
1373
02:55
They’re awesome.
59
175595
1228
02:58
Ok. So the oven’s preheated?
60
178475
1833
03:00
- Yep. - Alright, let’s do this.
61
180308
2201
03:04
Where’d I put that recipe? Here.
62
184055
2416
03:10
Nnnnnnnno.
63
190678
2261
03:12
Doesn’t matter.
64
192939
819
03:13
Oh, and it’s only supposed to be at 350?
65
193758
1765
03:16
So intimidating.
66
196972
1719
03:21
But when it comes out, it’s really worth it, because it’s Glen’s favorite pie.
67
201225
4699
03:28
Fifteen minutes starts now.
68
208916
4815
03:33
Yep, they’re all out.
69
213731
2820
03:36
And I think they’re going to be good tomorrow.
