00:00Nana also wants to make sure you're fed, too.
00:04Though this oatmeal could sure use some toppings.
00:09Mmm, banana slices are a good start.
00:14Also great for ice cream.
00:16Got any ice cream?
00:20Well, either way, this is perfect for a bite-sized treat.
00:24Of course, Grandma has her own way of doing it.
00:27Just twist up an old fork and it slices just like that.
00:35Always nice to go for a stroll in the crisp fall air.
00:40Uh-oh, looks like someone needs to go on the go.
00:44Luckily, she came prepared.
00:46It's a tent.
00:48This should give her some privacy, but hurry!
00:54Let's hope she remembered TP and hand sanitizer.
01:02Grandma is fine with a sheet and some clothespins.
01:15Anna is nothing if not frugal.
01:20Huh, well, this could probably tide her over till lunch.
01:24Do you need antacid?
01:26Oh, never mind, it's just a melon.
01:29Let's slice it up.
01:31And we've got the perfect gadget.
01:38Grandma's really into those Bond movies.
01:42And just like Bond, she's got her own special gadgets.
01:48A blade, a pipe, and gravity does the work for you.
01:56Whatever happened to Good to the Last Drop?
02:03Don't worry, your grandkid's here to help.
02:07Just slice up the fruit.
02:11Add to a juicer.
02:14And enjoy that freshly squeezed taste.
02:20Hey, aren't you gonna share with Grandma?
02:23Grandma, well, she's got a few tricks up her sleeve.
02:26All you need is a syringe.
02:29Fill it up with strawberries.
02:31And start pressing.
02:39Uh, sure you don't want a cup?
02:42Either of you?
02:46Our chef here is making dumplings.
02:51Wrap it up.
02:53Eh, just don't squeeze out the filling.
02:58Maybe we should just order a pizza?
03:02Oh, good idea.
03:04This dumpling maker should help.
03:09Doesn't push too hard.
03:10And they come out looking great.
03:16Grandma has her own secret dumpling trick.
03:21Fold it up and use a fork to give it texture.
03:26But her secret recipe for filling stays a secret.
03:34Oh, no, a bug.
03:37And right on her skirt, too.
03:40It's okay.
03:41She came prepared.
03:42A bug catcher.
03:44Just press the button and away it goes.
03:49Uh-oh.
03:50Almost forgot some bugs can fly.
03:53Calm down.
03:54Nana's got a secret weapon.
03:56A matchbox.
03:58The perfect trap.
04:00Just slide that bugaboo inside.
04:05Mmm, sushi.
04:08Don't worry.
04:09She brought her own chopsticks.
04:13Though they're the kind made for beginners.
04:17Think training wheels.
04:19But for utensils.
04:22Besides, Grandma has her own tricks.
04:25Cloth napkins.
04:27Roll it up and the chopsticks are attached at the hip.
04:33Of course, nothing beats just practicing.
04:39Rhinestones.
04:40They're not just for costume jewelry.
04:44They can give your face a little sparkle and shine.
04:47Just try not to immediately scratch it all off.
04:53Here's an idea.
04:54Cut a sponge into a shape.
05:01Add makeup and it's a cute little stamp.
05:08Just don't go nuts or it'll look like chicken pox.
05:11Speaking of which, she should really get that itch checked out.
05:16Now, now, now, Nana knows best.
05:19You need your five a day.
05:24Meet her halfway.
05:26Eat your greens, but have fun.
05:29Add a cuke to this device and start carving.
05:40It's a spiral.
05:43Almost like eating pasta.
05:45And there's no shame in washing it down.
05:49But if you wanted spirals, all you had to do was ask.
05:55Make some cuts to an old soda can.
06:01Twist your cucumber on top.
06:06And you get spirals.
06:09With a nice hint of cola.
06:11Of course, cukes aren't just for eating.
06:14Spa day!
06:18Naughty puppy.
06:19We don't eat your kibble.
06:24Guess she'll have to get a new snack.
06:28This kebab maker should help.
06:30Add meat.
06:33Lots and lots of meat.
06:35Just the way she likes it.
06:41Grandma has other ideas.
06:43No wonder she drinks so much soda.
06:49Fill the bottle with meat.
06:52Add a stick.
06:53And squeeze.
06:56Ah, looking good.
06:58Just don't forget to cook it up.
07:01Mmm.
07:01Now, pass the ketchup.
07:05Wow!
07:08Hungry again?
07:10Of course, there's always room for sushi.
07:13This should help.
07:15First, add the rice.
07:18Now, some sashimi.
07:20Like this salmon.
07:24Maybe some greens.
07:25Like avocado slices.
07:29Close it up and squeeze out on some seaweed.
07:33I don't think it was supposed to come out like that.
07:39Luckily, we've got a master chef in our corner.
07:44Just place the ingredients in an ice cube tray.
07:47Why not fill the whole tray?
07:49Add the rice last.
07:54Flip it over and voila!
07:57Ah, you've got sushi.
08:01So he said, but then she said.
08:04Wait, hold on.
08:05So, when's your next dentist appointment?
08:11Maybe some whitening strips could help.
08:19Just place on top of your teeth.
08:24Give it some time and peel away.
08:30Already looking much better.
08:34Does Nana want to try it out?
08:37Nah, she's got her own trick.
08:40Activated charcoal.
08:44Just chew it like gum.
08:46And rinse.
08:51Gotta have some tricks with all the tea she drinks.
09:00Maybe she's a natural.
09:01Or maybe she went to hair and makeup.
09:09Still, nothing wrong with trying a new thing.
09:11Take a new look.
09:13Roll it around and let the bubbles do the work.
09:18On second thought, let's just call the salon.
09:23Better yet, I think the wig store takes coupons.
09:29Nana and her magic soda cans to the rescue.
09:34Just cut out a little square.
09:35Add hair inside.
09:38And blow dry those new curls into place.
09:45Amazing.
09:46Does she do highlights too?
09:51Looks like someone got up from the wrong side of the bed.
09:55Maybe you should go back to bed.
09:57Maybe you should go back to bed.
09:58This gua sha tool should help with tension.
10:03Wow!
10:04Wait, how did it fix her hair?
10:06Anyway.
10:10Grandmas want to look their best, too.
10:13These spoons should help smooth things over.
10:18Ah, spoons.
10:20Helping you look your best.
10:21And they're great for soup.
10:23Grand-mizing stuff.
10:26Catch you next time.
