I don't know what is going on with this video. Maybe a @YouTube glitch...grrrr! When I look at it on Joel's personal YouTube account, it is not showing up in the feed at all. That's probably why the view count is so very low! Whew! Anyway...if you haven't seen it, hopefully you will see this community post. Please share it out if you don't mind! Hopefully YouTube will correct this! Thank you all!

Thank you to everyone who watched our video yesterday. I had a routine colonoscopy so I didn’t set the video as a premiere. Everything came back normal (yay!) and I don’t have to subject myself to that torture again for 5 years. lol. Anyway, I really appreciate your support and encouragement. If you didn’t catch it, it was 3 great recipes that you can use leftover turkey (or chicken) in. Check it out and let us know which one was your favorite.
