I swear if you ever publish a cookbook like the ones from Gooseberry I'd be your first customer. I love to hold a cookbook and just read it.
I got my cookbook! Love it Tipper! I like that I got it instantly! ❤️
Wishing you all the best on your cookbook sales. I know from as much as I have watched you cook and discussed food they have to be phenomenal. So sorry I am unable to buy one as I live on very limited means but I will most certainly buy one if I ever can because I love who you and what you stand for

@@suzannelawson9215 You can use your computer-or whatever you watch my videos on. 😀
When your daughter put her head on your shoulder and said thank you mama, I love you. She knows the labor of love that goes into feeding the family! So sweet! ❤️
Thank you she is a sweet girl 😀
@@CelebratingAppalachia 😢 It's times like this I miss my mother, ❤️
@@joyce9523 prayers for you, Joyce!
I was thinking the same thing and then I saw your name…my Mom’s name was Joyce.😊
@@joyce9523 I know! So many things brings that grief right to the surface. I'm thinking of you Joyce!!
It’s hard to imagine a genuinely southern Appalachian home, without the smell of a big pot of green beans or pinto beans cooking wafting through the house.
Reminds me of home, and the sound of our screen door slamming on barefoot, summer days. 💯🇺🇸❣️
😀 Love that!!
@@CelebratingAppalachia - Matt’s deadpan commentary on how stuffed has was fixin’ to be with such an iconic summer feast, had me fallin’ out! 😂🤣
“Call an ambulance. It’s about to be tragic…”
@@lorchid23 He's so silly 😀
I learned, the hard way, never to slam a door. I cringe every time I hear a door slam.
That home cooked smell still waffes through the homes in the Ozarks and Ouachitas mountains of Arkansas. It's enough to make a body never leave them there hills.
I married into a family whose roots are from the hollers of Kentucky.
Watching your videos brings back memories of Mom (Steve's Mom) teaching me the recipes that Steve loved. She has passed on, and I carry her memories.
the way you live, love, and cook makes you some of the richest and luckiest people I know. Thanks for sharing.
This just took me back to my childhood days. Almost had me cryin just sittin here watchin ya'll. Oh, how I wish times were simpler and things weren't so hard. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. I could almost smell all those great foods cookin.
So glad you enjoyed this one 😀
I'm right there with you!
This actually made my stomach growl. Everything looked so good. Made me wish I could reach through the screen and load up a plate for myself. Thanks for posting this!
😀
I'm from GA and my Big Mama, Ethel made that cucumber salad every summer for my sister and I. She would add mayo, salt and pepper to hers and it was delicious. Big Mama also called the broth from her greens/beans pot liquor and dinner "supper." ☺ This just warmed my heart with beautiful childhood memories of my sweet Grandmother. 💕
That sounds divine.
@@chrisblevins5143 Thank you! 😊
from upstate NY and we called the last meal of the day "supper"....
I've been a vegetarian since I was 18; I'm 73 now. I love all your vegetable dishes. I'm thinking I might move to Appalachia because its so beautiful there. Your family is such a blessing to the world.
Thank you so much 😀
Cooking for my family gives me so much pleasure! Nothing finer than southern style cooking by your mama!
😀 Thank you
Everything looks so good. Sweet of Katie to do the dishes. If I had a side kick like that, I cook more. LOL
I came from a southern family who did not add sugar to our recipes unless it was a dessert or ice tea. Love how we all have our culinary traditions.
What a Feast!!!! Loved everything on the menu. I totally agree with the corn boiling for only 3 mins. I don't peel my tomatoes either.
My biggest take away from this video.... is Katie thanking you for the meal and telling you "I love you"! Made me get emotional.
Thank you Tipper for sharing. Touched my heart!
I don't peel my tomatoes either. I'm in Ontario, Canada, and I love learning about your Appalachian culture. There's nothing like fresh vegetables from the garden, especially nowadays with the soaring grocery prices. Your meal looks delicious! 😋
Thank you 😀
You make me think that I'm sitting in my momma's or granny's kitchen ! Everybody talking and laughing; my hilarious cousin telling jokes... I can smell your cookin' through the computer screen. Bless you and thank you.
Love that! Thank you 😀
Now that was an absolutely delicious Appalachian meal! Wow! I especially liked when you were picking spinach from your garden! Goals. Your cooking videos definitely inspire meal ideas, thank you! What an awesome tradition! ✌🏼
W'e're building, so I've been stuck in town. After two years without a garden, I've never appreciated my gardens the way I do now. I miss the dirt and the seeds, the watching and the waiting, the weeding and the worrying, the picking and the cooking, the eating and the canning, and the sharing. Most of all I miss the satisfaction that came from watching my family gather round a table full of food that came from itsy bitsy, teeny, tiny seeds.
tomato sandwiches every day for lunch during the summer..
This summertime meal looks delicious. During this time of year we take every opportunity to enjoy the wonderful vegetables made available. Often, we elect not to have a meat entree with the meal, we just enjoy the home cooking of the fresh garden vegetables. Almost always have a skillet of cornbread or some homemade biscuits. We always keep a large mason jar of cucumber and onion salad in the refrigerator. Eat it with everything. Add a plate of sliced vine ripe tomatoes and your good. Thanks for making me hungry. - Tennessee Smoky
P
Hubby and I do this as well---we dub it "Vegetable Medley".....and frankly, it's just about my most favorite meal!
My Mom's family was from PA dutch area and grandma always added sugar to her cucumber salad. Same ingredients but when Mom married Dad he liked a little vinegar in most all salads with olive oil. My sister has Mom's old vinegar cruet hanging above her stove. I can still remember Dad sprinkling a little vinegar and olive oil on salads and cooked greens. Such good times! Thanks for the memories.
Love those memories 😀
Oh mine too!!! Both sides came from PA Dutch roots !
My mom was also P-Dutch - and an amazing coo. She,, too, fixed cucumbers with vinegar and a pinch of sugar. She made enough for us to eat them right after she fixed them, then the next day when they had "pickled" a little. And, for those of you with P-Dutch genes, how about chicken corn soup? The best.
I am absolutely swooning here! EVERYTHING looks wonderful. My Dad called corn on the cob “roastin’ ears” too. ❤️
Any family is lucky to have someone with the patience to make such a huge homemade dinner like this.
My mom makes a cucumber tomato salad very similar to that. Chops them up and makes a dressing with salt, pepper, vinegar, oil, and a bit of sugar. SO good! 🤤
Sounds great!
I've got this salad in my fridge right now!!
@@pamelacrowell2007 me too
We have a large Mason Jar of this cucumber salad in the refrigerator all summer. Eat it with everything. Keep adding fresh cucumbers and onions. When it’s gone, we start over and make another jar. We always serve fresh sliced tomatoes with it. It’s so good, especially on those hot days of summer. - Tennessee Smoky
We make ours with a little mayonnaise once in awhile too. Cut up the vegetables like she did. You can add lettuce if you want to and add salt, pepper, and a little mayonnaise. That's so good with meals like this. 😉😊
Tipper, everything looked so delicious! I loved seeing how much Matt was enjoying his supper. Your videos are wonderful.
We had fresh beans yesterday, and the pot liquor is my favorite part of that dish. We bought a vacant lot near our home for additional green space and garden area. We put three galvanized gardens on the lot so far. We had to go out of state for a family emergency, and our wonderful neighbor planted the beans for us. We have plenty of beans for everyone! That’s quite a meal you made, Tipper. Looks delicious!
Country cooking is just the best, and every country has there own style of country cooking!
My Mom always cooked from scratch with southern love thrown in too. This brought back memories of summer garden and good food. ❤️❤️ Love y’all’s channel.
It all looked absolutely delicious. The blackberry dumplings brought memories of my Mother's blackberry cobbler. Thanks for having us for supper.
This was wonderful. Best part was your daughter. When you complained about the corn silk and she said, “having a few strings, it builds character”. Almost cried, my sweet father would always tell my sister and I that if we complained about something trifling. I’m so glad I found your channel!
😊 thank you
Sitting here again watching yr wonderful vids eating my super, cheese on toast with Worcestershire sauce and a cup of tea..(uk) I enjoy my food more when I watch you cook. Even though I've never eaten Appalachian food lol it always makes me hungry. Different country and culture but you still remind me of my own mother and granny, the love for looking after yr family is just like my own mother. Feels like home, great work tipper 😊❤🤤
OH my goodness! My mouth was watering, everything looked so good! 🥰
Thank you 😋
That looks so delicious! You can't get food like that at a drive through and you make it look so easy.
As always everything looks so delicious. I love how Matt and Katie helped you clean up Reminded me of my child hood growing up with my granny she was the matriarch of my family when she passed my family sadly went there own ways. I love your channel it takes me back . I wish that family values still mattered this is whats wrong with our world today a lot of people have know morel's or family values thank you Tipper.
You are so right about family. I have a daughter who won’t even speak to me and no one knows why. She just says it’s a mental thing. My heart is broken.
Tipper, my mom showed me a shortcut to making meatloaf like yours. If you pour the tomato sauce on the slice of bread, it makes it almost melt. Then the bread stirs in nicely to the mixture. I’ve done it that way ever since. Your meal looks delicious. Thank you for sharing.
Good tip!
Your food looks so delicious, my family never peeled tomatoes either unless we were making a sauce. I don't peel my carrots and potatoes all the time either. You have such a beautiful loving family.
Thank you 😀
Meatloaf sandwich on lite bread sounds delicious now! ❤️
We love them 😀
Talk about a Healthy Home Cooked meal… you put professional chefs to shame. How wonderful that you share these lovely recipes. God bless. 🙏😊
You just kill me. I haven't had a meal like this in over 10 years now. I love watching your stories but I can only watch so much because I end up crying so much I can't see. I love ❤️ that you do this. I miss my mom and granny. I'm afraid I will not make it back there before everyone has gone on. I really do love you 😍 thank you 😊
Summertime Thanksgiving on the plate and Christmas for the tastebuds! Wow. Also like the team work for clean up, “many hands make light work”🌻💛🌻
Thank you 😀
My goodness! What a spread! This makes me want to find a farmers' market! Our summer treat was cucumbers and onions soaking in vinegar, water and salt and pepper. I think you have to be in Southeast Ohio to nderstnad that one.
LOVE cucumbers and onions in water, vinegar, salt and pepper! NE TN by way of SW VA.
love my cucumbers in vinegar! I'm in se ohio too, in Lawrence County. howdy neighbor!
@@rachelaclarethompson Hi Rachel! I moved out of Ohio in 1984 but those roots grow deep! That's why we love celebrate Appalachia so much. She even cooks with the same pans I have!
You are such a good mother and Matt's awesome, and Katie is too. And of course, Corie and Austin are cool too! Thanks for sharing your lives with us in these videos.
Thank you so much!
You remind me of my grandmother from West Virginia. I don’t mean that disrespectfully because she would be 86 and your obviously no where near that age but you just remind me so much of her. Thank you for creating your content 💜💪🙏💯
Love that!
Have absolutely fallen in love with this channel. Such great content, and good people. Much love from Gaston County
Much appreciated! Thank you 😀
My mama always added a little vinegar and sugar to her green beans, so do I. Smells so good cooking too,try it! We cook our beans down, all liquid gone. Mama always had a jar of cucumbers and onions with vinegar she had made on the table from the garden.
I bet her cooking was just wonderful 😀
I cook the liquid gone in my green beans. I was also blessed to have Eppie Hallman as a mother-in-law. She taught me that even store bought green beans can taste home cooked if you drain and rinse them then add a tad of sugar with the salt, fat and water…still cooking almost dry of course. She was from the piedmont region of SC, but an amazing cook and wonderful woman.
THIS is a plate full of childhood memories for me! So many meals that looked just like this around my granny's table.
I was so HAPPY to see you doing the Blackberry dumplings the correct way, what i think, Lol God Bless y'all !!
I did enjoy that. It would be great to see more of Matt's campfire cooking.
Thank you Roger! I'll try to get him to do some 😀
A meal fit for a king! I cut my corn off the cob nowadays also, and I never peel the tomatoes. I love watching you make a meal as it brings memories of my momma's cooking & I can almost taste it. Those blackberry dumplings looked wonderful. Tell Katie how sweet she is to do the dishes.
You're so right, it's very hard not to go crazy with adding more scrumptious dishes to a lovely supper when there's such abundance! This reminds me of one Sunday when I still lived at home with my folks when my Mama had planned a roast chicken supper with corn on the cob, a salad, and pie. Somehow it turned into that, plus green beans with ham hock, biscuits, pinto beans, mashed potatoes, and two different kinds of pie. Fortunately my brothers and their families were over visiting and helped eat it up. For me it's one of my loveliest cooking memories with my Mama.
I'm not Southern - live in the Pacific Northwest but I grew up on the same kind of food. Everyone calls it peasant food but it is the best eating you can do.
Everything looked so good. Iv e never had spinach cooked like that but it looked good too. I flour my okra instead of cornmeal. Thanks for sharing your garden goodies.
You made my kind of eating for a perfect supper! Boy, it made me so hungry watching the video. It reminds me of my Mama’s cooking & our house always smelled so delicious around supper time. I think the smell of wonderful home cooking is the most homey & cozy smell in the world. It endured me to mine Mom even more & I remember the great food she cooked for her family & I wish we would have thanked her more often.
Thank you for the video. The food looks amazing and delicious. I usually fry my okra the same as you do. Sometimes I do a deep fry depending on company. A very long time ago, I was on my way to go camping at the OBX, and I stopped by the corn fields and got some silver queen corn from a farmer's stand. When I got to the campground, I found that I didn't have a big pot to boil the corn in. I then remembered how my Mom used to cut the fresh corn off and pan fry it in some butter and bacon grease. And after that time, I've been doing my corn that way ever since. Your sweet family is so full of good humor and kindness. You all are truly blessed to have one another. LOL! If you'd invite me for supper, I'd not only do the dishes, but I'd sweep and mop the floor AND wash 'n dry 'n fold a load of laundry for you.😄 Thank you again for the video and for sharing your wonderful home with others. Take care and blessings to you all. 🙏🏻😊💖
Thank you Lisa 😀
Totally reminded me of some of the stuff that my mother made. And it is that time of year that you want to cook everything from the garden. It all looked so good!
Wonderful country cooking. I noticed you have a different stove now. It’s so nice to see everyone working together to clean up the kitchen after you cooked such a tasty meal.
When you cook like that, it takes me back to my Momma’s kitchen. It does my soul good to reflect and remember those wonderful memories. I carry on her tradition of cooking and canning! pS… we say “Okri” in southern Middle Tennessee too!
What kind of corn do you have? Silver queen? Just put up 15 dozen yesterday. Right now, I don’t care if I ever see another ear of corn 🌽 after getting it done! Bounty for the winter months ahead. Thank you again Tipper!
That actually looks pretty healthy... all those vegetables!
What an amazing meal you put together girl. That looks so good 👍. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us 👍
I enjoyed this so much. I grew up in the south and cook like this too. Everything looks so good! Thanks for sharing it with us.
I love watching you in the kitchen making your family meals and hearing your stories.
That's definitely a feast! I love it, and I loved seeing you cook your supper. You are the best. Sure brought back lots of memories for me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. It even reminded me of all the wonderful smells. You see,all my elder family are gone as well as most of my siblings. I am a widow . Sure enjoyed seeing this. God bless you. From Georgia
Nothing gets better than someone who still says dinner and supper
I live in Ky, but my Mom cooked like you do. I carry on cooking like she did and I'm passing it on. She would put the salad in the refrigerator overnight and eat it the next day. The cornbread is for sopping green bean juice.
Or pinto bean juice or mustard/collard/turnip green pot liquor or beef stew/chili sauce, and if you didn’t have any of that a breakfast or bedtime snack of cornbread and milk (or buttermilk like my Mamaw)
I remember those summer meals . I wish I had eaten more and hugged Granny more for what she did for me. Thanks for the wonderful memories.
Yummy!!! You cook like I was taught to. God Bless you guys.
What a wonderful feast! Seeing your family express their appreciation for your efforts was lovely! We had our first sweet corn of the season on the grill tonight and it was so delicious! Love summer's bounty!
A few things; meatloaf is so person specific that when two people marry, one of the things has to be whose Mom's meatloaf will rule, or perhaps a new tradition. I just started Malabar spinach. For fresh corn, I grew up in NE and you went to the farm stand as early as possible and let the corn rest on the counter till the magic moment. Had to be cooked that day, but you had to test the softness of the kernels before committing to the length of the boil time
Thank you 😀
This is how I was raised. 🥰 I carry the tradition as best as I can.
I'm really enjoying your channel, as an English person the food is very 'exotic' to me and I'm fascinated by it all! 😃 I would love to be able to grow veggies, but I live in a city and only have a tiny backyard. My great-aunt and uncle used to have their own veggie garden and lived in a cottage in the country, I used to have holidays with them back when I was at school in the 1980's! My auntie was such a good cook and all the veg was from my uncle's garden - I really miss that. Seeing your beautiful home and family reminds me of those happy times in my childhood and how good the food was! I tried your Apalacian breakfast a while ago, some things you cook with (like the types of bacon) we don't have here in the UK, but I managed to cook most of it in the end and it was very nice, the biscuits turned out extremely well - so your recipe is exellent! Of course you probably know - in England a 'biscuit' is what you call a 'cookie' in the US, the American biscuit is more like an English scone! I've visited the US twice, but not your neck of the woods, it does sound so idyllic! 🙂
Thank you-so glad you're enjoying our channel! And so glad you like our biscuits 😀
My Memaw made cucumber salad your way… and also eliminating the vinegar. And using mayonnaise and some sugar. Both are delicious!!
Tipper everything looked so good. As we say”You went all out” Looked like a Sunday dinner!!
Thank you 😀
@@CelebratingAppalachia I love okra so much that I am of the mindset of "why wouldn't you leave the ends of the okra"? This meal was an absolute heck of a feast! Most everything looked so good. I'm not the biggest fan of spinach, but perhaps if I try the Malabar sometime I might find I like that variety. How do from New Bern. Y'all take care. I loved how Katie was so sweet to you and helped clean the kitchen with Matt. It looks like they caught you a nice mess of fish for supper, you lucky lady you.
I’ll be 58 years old this month and today my sweet 86 year old Mommy asked me if I wanted her to fix me some blackberry dumplings. She knows they are my favorite ever since I was a little girl growing up here in south eastern Ky.
Love that 😀
Fried okry....Divine! My dad had a highly productive garden. I remember is so well, and how I miss those times. Collards, mustard greens, turnips and greens, potatoes, corn, tomatoes, onions, beets, spinach, Brussels sprouts, eggplant, cabbage...mercy me!
I love your recipes Mrs Tipper, I love summer garden meals too along with my annual thanksgiving feast are my favorite meals to cook and eat! This really looked like a summertime thanksgiving feast!
I love watching you cook! My momma was from the mountains in Virginia and cooked just like you.
That was my supper tonight minus the blackberry dumplings and salmon cakes instead of meatloaf. Man I miss mawmaws blackberry dumplings, greatest of memories. God Bless y'all.
My Grandparents had a sustainable homestead and grew all their vegetables and sold potatoes and eggs...Grandma always had sliced tomato and cucumber on the table at meal time during the summer and I still like to do this even during the winter...I always enjoy them with boiled new potatoes...Your style of cooking and meals are very similar to my Grandma...I'm from Ontario Canada so okra and cornbread were not staples but most of your other foods were...Meals were always a treat at my Grandparents...Everything was fresh and cooked to perfection...I remember Grandma going out to the chicken coop and killing a chicken for supper and she at one time used to cook on the wood stove in the heat of summer...You bring back good memories for me...Thank you for sharing all that you do.
Thank you Janice! Love those wonderful memories you have 😀
Fabulous meal!! ❤️ thank you! For the easy tip for frying okrey!
Oh my that all looks so good my mouth is watering. I can make a meal on fried okra, corn on the cob and sliced tomatoes. Unfortunately out here in Pa. I can’t find okra anywhere. I will keep looking and next year I may have to plant a couple just so I can have at least one mess. Love the way the whole family cleans the kitchen! ❤️
Thank you 😀
I grew up and know how to make these meals and there ain't nothing better in this world.
What sucks is, I now have back problems and suffer from Peripheral neuropathy which is paralyzing my feet legs and hands. I am a great cook and worked in many different cultured restaurants, but after 35 yrs in construction and getting hurt, I can no longer stand up long enough to cook.
I love you channel and can almost taste the food you cook.😋
I'm sorry you're suffering with that!! Glad you enjoy our videos 😀
@@CelebratingAppalachia Thank you so much for the reply. I only hope one day I can move back to a hollar close to some good folks like you, wbere we can talk and share some good times n bad, all the while sharing a great meal together. Keep them videos coming cause it makes me ( personally ) Feel like I'm back home with granny n papa again.
Ps. I'm probably older than you are, at close to being 55, but the food and way of life makes me wish I was a kid again. Keep in mind, I'm California born n raised, but my family and way I was brought up, are FAR from from what some folks think of us all. Personally, I wouldn't trade a million dollars for the life you have, and pray everyday!! I can sometime soon get the money to go back and live the same way. Which btw, is what life ( real life ) Is all about.
God bless to you and yours.
You all are such a good example of what family should look like
What a yummy feast. I live in Hawaii I don't skin my tomatoes. When I lived in London my friend from Jamaica would soak her salad veggies in warm water with course salt for 30 minutes before preparing her salad. It's great to share and glean from this melting pot we call Earth❤️
I'm gonna put a solid 9.5 on the drool factor for this one. I've wised up and had a snack before watching too. Everything looked so yummy. I like shredded carrots in the meatloaf and I add oatmeal or crumbled crackers. I know Matt probably passed out directly. Thanks for sharing and y'all stay safe.
Thank you Brian 😀
I’m glad you said supper instead of dinner! I grew up with the evening meal called supper, thank you for bringing back wonderful memories.
We had meatloaf, stuffed peppers, okra, maters and cornbread for supper tonight. Watching your video, I'm hungry all over again. My children are all grown and gone now. That was sweet how your daughter told you she loved you.
We love that salad. Momma used Italian dressing sometimes and I have other family that uses Ranch dressing. I usually just use salt and pepper to taste. It's a wonderful Summer salad and so easy to make.
Other tjan salt and pepper are herbs and other spices ever used in Appalachian?
Cooking
Your cooking always gets my tummy growling and my mouth watering, your family is so blessed to have you in so many ways! I’d be so proud if I ever learnt we are related some how, I love all y’all
Can't get the cooking out of her, she is really the matriarch of the family 😊 her husband too! 😊
Hi Tipper
You made me hungry right after supper tonight, and I was already stuffed ! I think tomorrow we're going to have fried fat back, white half runner beans, corn bread from coarsely ground meal, and steamed silver queen rosnears. Sliced cherokee purple tomatoes, cucumbers, and Vidalia onions mixed and salted and peppered.
I agree with Katie. No okra !
😀
I love the summer salad (I also have the Rada tomato knife and wisk..... and several other Rada items..lol, cause they're terrific) they're are many versions of the salad here in my neck of the Appalachians too, my favorite two are
1. After you've chopped the three vegetables, add a spoon full of miracle whip (not mayo) and salt and pepper, stir and fold in till everything is coated and chill in the fridge for at least an hour (you don't want to add a large amount of MW, go light on it and you can always add more if you need to) it is scrumptious!
2. After the veggies are chopped or cut up, add equal parts of vinegar and water to coat everything (you could add a small amount of sugar if you wanted, I don't) salt and pepper to taste and refrigerate to chill and marinade. P.S. that whole meal looks soooo delicious....I wish we were neighbors, like a few houses down, instead of a few states away...bahahaha
Those sound great 😀
Looks so delicious! I could almost smell the goodness! So sweet of Katie to thank her mama!! Really enjoyed watching you put this together.
I grew up with a mother, who just looked out for her self. If she went to the grocery, it was just stuff for her to keep in her closet. I am 60 years old. I love watching you!
Bless you!
Now that is a feast! I love everything your cooked! How in the world can you all eat like this and not be fat?!?!
Absolutely love you and your daughter's channel haven't been on here in a while been out rodeoing was up in Canada now I'm in Salinas California you guys are so blessed you have two beautiful daughters God bless you guys keep up the good work Katie is absolutely adorable
Thank you!!
All your summertime vegetables look so good ! I tried your cornbread recipe and it came out great. Growing up in New England we didn't eat cornbread (my family didn't ). One type of bread we did eat a lot of was rye bread. My Dad would buy the rye bread from a Lithuanian bakery where the bread was baked in brick ovens. We also had white bread which was either Wonder or Sunbeam. I saw your video on light bread. I told my husband how you sprinkled sugar on white bread too like he did as a kid. . He grew up in Florida. I now live in Florida and have been introduced to Southern cooking . I've also tried your Cabbage Patch soup and it was delicious. Thanks for sharing your Appalachian recipes . I need to try your dessert dumplings !
That is wonderful! Thank you Donna!
I swear I am going to have to stop watching you cook. I love everything you cook. I am suppose to lose some weight,my sugar was up when I went to the Dr. I could eat this dinner here at 5 in the morning. God bless this awesome family, I love you guys.
What a feast! It’s so obvious you are a cook who puts love in her cooking. Just awesome to hear the stories surrounding your food and then watching your family appreciate it so much.
I just made meatloaf cornbread , mashed taters, peas and corn.and homemade gravy from the drippings ...i always make extra meatliaf i love leftovers..My husband swore he hated meatloaf til he had mine😉...I make the toppung with brwn sugar ketchup mustard and dash apple cider vinager...my MIL made this salad all the time with vinager s&P...
Sounds great!
That looks so good! My mom and dad grew everything you made except the spinach. We even called the corn “roas’in’ ears” like you do. We picked wild blackberries and mom would make dumplings like yours. It was indeed a feast!
When I saw that pot of beans, I was back home. I watched you cook this meal that I have eaten myself so many times, and it brought tears to my eyes. Mama made biscuits every day except for once in a while when it was cornbread at supper, but Granny made cornbread and biscuits both every day. She had seven children and I understand how those habits run deep, now that mine have grown and gone. There is no reason for me to cook big pots full of anything.
When my son was little, he would get up after every meal and kiss my cheek and tell me thank you. They all said thank you, but he was the only one that would give me a kiss. I don't know if he remembers that, but I'll never forget because it's one of my favorite memories. And oh gee, I'm still crying. The world is going through some stuff right now, some bad stuff, and it makes you put up defenses because it hurts to see it. For a little while this morning I was back on solid ground. Thanks.
What a dear memory of your young son…😊
Sweet memories Wanda!!
My father and my grandfather both had vegetable gardens.
I ❤️ Kentucky wonder beans with potatoes!
I am so happy that you shared your meatloaf recipe bc I have never been able to make a good one. My family pulls no punches when sharing the horrors of my many attempts either. But you taught me exactly where I was making my errors (too many breadcrumbs & putting all the liquids inside the loaf instead of on the outside). Thank you!
