My favorite part was the prayer moment. I’m so happy to hear someone say thank you to our lord and savior, Jesus. This thanksgiving, it was just my husband and 4 kids, and a friend of our son, who has never eaten a traditional thanksgiving meal from the Turkey, green bean casserole, corn pudding, pumpkin pie, apple pie, gravy, ham, mashed potatoes, stuffing, dinner rolls, apple cider. All mostly from scratch. I prayed for the thanksgiving. We had such a wonderful time. The friend said everything was so good. When he left I gave him the extra pumpkin pie I had made and some of the apple pie. It was a special evening for us all. The Lord was good with us this past year. My cancer is in remission and I was able to cook up this feast, my love language.
Thank you for sharing your thanksgiving with us.
So glad you had a wonderful day! Glad you enjoyed our video too 😀 God is good!
Thank you for including us. 😁 Happy Thanksgiving to you all.
So glad you enjoyed it 😀
Same to u Kim .j Becker happy 😀 holidays 🤶🎄🎄👼❤️
U bet yea Kim 😀😀😀👍❤️
my grandparents were lucky to get 15 acres of land when they first moved to ohio where we all live now and they used to grow all kinds of local fruits and vegetables like grapes, squash, strawberries, sunflowers, watermelon, etc. seeing you walk through your garden always makes me think of when i used to go with them and help them with their gardens. 🥰💗
Love those memories 😀
Hi 😊 there stan neat 😀👍👍
I love the way you and your family put the day together with care and love . Everything looked so delicious thank you for sharing your Thanksgiving with us . ❤️✝️❤️
Thank you Brenda 😀
I have the best thanksgiving story ever. In 1976 when I was stationed at fort Bragg North Carolina my wife 2 children and 3 other guys from my unit decided to have thanksgiving at our house. I got paid 275 dollars a month and got paid every 30 days. The turkey came out of the oven looking so good. She was really proud of it until I stared carving it. I cut into it and water just poured out of I said did you thaw it out before you cooked it. As she started to cry she said I didn’t know I was supposed to. That girl couldn’t cook a hotdog and now she’s a dietitian for the veterans administration. That was wife number 1. I stayed in the army for 10 years
I enjoyed the twins’ music. They’re so talented. Glad you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! So did I and my family! 🙂
Thank you! So glad you had a good one too 😀
Hi 😊 there Linda Sanderson same here 😀👍👍❤️
Wonderful video, Tipper! All the food looked delicious, and your home and decorations looked beautiful! I am so glad you were able to make the apple cake for your mama. I know she really appreciated that! ❤
So glad you enjoyed it-thank you 😀
I miss those large family gatherings we used to have at my Grandma's. But sadly she and so many Aunts and Uncles have passed on. It was great to watch your Thanksgiving time together.
I can’t tell you what I enjoyed more… the cooking and lead up to dinner. Granny’s linens and stories. The fixing of plates or the discussions in the background and chatter. Your meal looked delicious!
I think my favorite part was a combination of it all- fixing the plate while listening to background talk and chatter and the warm feeling of the prayer. You can’t deplete that.
I am alone- as you know- and decided I’d get a take out plate - couldn’t eat it. Wont do that again. I mean- it’s fine I’m over it eating alone. However, I’d prefer to have a ham sandwich than try to replace what i remember.
Y’all are very blessed, indeed! Thank you for sharing your day.
Thank you Sandra! I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
Is comforting to know that organized chaos is part of others’ celebration, just like ours! It’s a fun, happy time and we cherish each minute! Happy belated Thanksgiving!
It is at ours LOL! Thank you 😀
I love the drawing of Pap with his guitar and flag, thanks for all that you do Tipper ♥️✝️🇺🇸
Thank you! One of my blog readers made the drawing of Pap 😀 Allison Britt 😀
My cheeks almost closed my eyes from underneath; I was grinning fit to burst the whole time I watched this. I worked for the holiday but now after watching this feel like I spent it with family
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed visiting with us 😀
Honestly, thank you!
Thank you so much for letting us join you in your Thanksgiving celebration, it was a beautiful video. Your warmth and friendliness is so heart warming, it is a joy to watch your videos. Have a wonderful week 💞
You are so welcome! Thank you!
That was wonderful. So much like ours. I sure am thankful for my wonderful family, for being blessed to live in Appalachia, but most of all for Jesus Christ who died so that I could have eternal life. God Bless You ❤
Thank you Tipper and girls. It was a joy to watch your celebration. May the Lord continue to pour his blessings upon you all. Much love to you.
Thank you so much 😀
I just love you and your family what sweet humble people you are. It's nice to learn traditions being kept up in your neck of the woods. As a Canadian I really appreciate learning. Happy American Thanksgiving. I really hope one day to partake in an American feast you do it so well😊🇨🇦🇺🇸🦃🦃💜
Thanks so much for the kind words!!
I wish one year we could have you with us so you can enjoy a good Thanksgiving. We're in Northeast Georgia, southern Appalachia like Tipper and her family.
@@kourtnilackes7086 ☺
Thank you for inviting us into your home on this special day. I enjoy seeing other traditions and families making memories 🦃
You are so welcome!
Every time I tune in im hit with homesick for a place I've never been all my people come from your area my granny is a Rippatoe
I had to Google that one. Awesome.
I'm glad we remind you of your loved ones 😀
I found Rippatoe springs in Kentucky yay
I love the many ways you celebrate home, family & Appalachia. I celebrated Thanksgiving with my sister and her children and grandchildren. It was once again, the best ever! I'm sure yours was too!!
I'm so glad you had a good one Rita 😀
Well, Tipper? That was just the most LOVELY Thanksgiving. So much fun to get to make it with you, and hear your thoughts and explanations shared along the way! See all your family, and everyone celebrating and eating and getting along like we're supposed to....
You know? If a person didn't have their own Thanksgiving; if they were a Thanksgiving 'orphan' -- away from, or without folks to share it with -- this would go such a long way toward filling the void. I have felt that feeling before, although I've never really been without -- fortunately. But I feel other's feelings, and this was such a VERY nice share. Thank you, Tipster and fam! Thank you so much!
That prayer really moved me " help us Lord what we need to be for You" ahhh I'm crying that's so beautiful
It is so wonderful you had a whole house full. We used to have house full of people at my grammys and aunts but all have passed but my mama, so just a few of us. Family is such a blessing :)
Thank you Sheryl 😀
My what a feast. I know you and yours had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Thank you for inviting us into your home, Tipper. Your loved ones feel like our loved ones. God bless! Love you more and more.
So glad you enjoyed it 😀
@@CelebratingAppalachia I feel so blessed to have discovered you and yours. My wife and I enjoy your content, your life, your loved ones. You demonstrate the life we grew up with in 1950’s & 1960’s West Virginia has not been totally erased from the American culture. Thank you for all you are doing. You are like close cousins we finally met. Luv ya, Cuz!
@@scottclay4253We appreciate you!! 😀
Ohhh how wonderful! What a feast! Everything looked so good! Thanks so much for letting us spend Thanksgiving with you all in Appalachia! I could almost smell that beautiful apple stack cake and the turkey baking! I'm smacking and slurping my lips! Happy holidays everyone!!🥰
Thank you for visiting with us 😀
That was wonderful! Thank you so much for taking the time to set all that up and thinking of us during this special family day.
It’s a lot of work and from this country girl in the city - I thank you
Your kitchen reminds me of my parents house . I think I needed this?
Glad you enjoyed it! 😀
Thanks for having us to see all the lovely festivities! That was a FEAST to behold.. Happy Thanksgiving, so much to be thankful for, to include the Pressley family !!! 🥰
So glad you enjoyed it! Thank you 😀
You just put that beautiful meal together with such ease! I love watching you and your family cook. 🦃❤️🇨🇦
Thanks so much 😀
Enjoyed sharing in some of y’all’s thanksgiving festivities Miss Tipper!
Great lookin meal, great time of fellowship and making memories with y’all awesome family. It’s music to my ears to hear the sounds of chatter in the background of everyone being together
Thanks for including us in y’all’s special day.
We were blessed here as well. GOD is so good!!
GOD BLESS YALL 😇😇🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️🦃🦃
Thank you Pastor Lon! He is so GOOD!!
Australian here, I have never heard of a apple stack cake before, now I can’t stop thinking about it! I am going to have to mark it in order to satisfy my culinary curiosity. Thanks for sharing your special family Thanksgiving with us.
Watching yall makes me miss my husband more😢 I lost him 2mos ago to an illness. We were married 21yrs but it wasn't enough. I pray you have a long healthy life ❤
I'm so very sorry you lost him.
What a very sweet time together. Thank you for inviting me into your precious home.
You are so welcome!
I'm finding younger people have NO CLUE what is involved in planning and executing a full traditional Thanksgiving dinner. All the planning!!! It's HARD!!! But it's the best feeling in the world when you know you pulled it off!!!
Love this! I just did Thanksgiving dinner all by myself! It takes so much planning. I keep lists like you do for everything. Organization and planning is the key.🦃
Your Thanksgiving looked wonderful. I really wanted one of those rolls you made. I look forward to every video, thank you for sharing.
You are so welcome!
I was so happy to see the apple stack cake. The last year grandma was alive she asked me to make the cake using the dried apples she and grandpa had done in the summer. She died the following spring. She left a note to me asking me to take all the dried apples in the freezer cause she wanted me to make more cakes.. what a wonderful memory. Thanks for all your programs. I am always watching your family. Mary
Thank you for sharing that sweet memory 😀
Happy Thanksgiving, Tipper! Thank you for letting us peek into your world on such a special day!
Love the flower arrangements! Thanks for sharing with us! Have a great week. ❤️ 🙏Jane in SC
Glad you enjoyed it Jane 😀
Salting a turkey a day before cooking it is called a dry brine. The salt initially draws the moisture out but then pulls it back in and holds the moisture through roasting. This form of brining actually develops a more moist turkey. Good job!
That was precious! Also, so very delicious looking! I prayed right along with y'all, amen. -much love from NJ ~Mary & fam
😀 Love that! Thank you
Yum Tipper, a feast for Thanksgiving. All the best to everyone.
That biscuit kept moving around that plate till it landed on top! That’s how you make a plate!😍 thanks for having us along with your family! They seem lovely and inviting! I spent the day in church with my mama and they had food after for a church thanksgiving supper! It was lovely 🥰 love y’all!! The end with the girls was so sweet!
😀 Thank you!!

Turkey tips
- carefully cut out wishbone prior to cooking. Make carving turkey breast easy.
- Spatchcock the turkey. The flattened bird cooks in just two hours or so plus it allows more room in oven while turkey is roasting on bottom slot in oven.
I could put that soundtrack on from 21:40 through 23:00 on a loop. Family gathering. Honestly makes me cry. Thank you for this. God bless you and yours.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Russian tea! Lord, I haven't heard of that in YEARS. My mom always made that around the holidays. She was from southwestern Virginia. You evoked memories that warmed my heart and made me smile. God bless you and your family Tipper.
You are so down to earth. Just like at my house now and when I was growing up. I think we may have been raised and live the same lives...😄
Thank you 😀
I also saw that cousin Jim Cassada had a recipe in his newsletter this month for layer cake --sounds similar to yours. Although dad's family is from Sylva, I grew up in Hampton VA. The layer cake is similar to what they call "Smith Island cake" in Tidewater VA---from colonial times. Just imagine our ancestors carrying these recipes and techniques from England/Europe to Colonial Va to Western NC.
Thank you! That recipe is the one I use and it will be in our upcoming cookbook 😀
Hope you all enjoyed. Very curious about you cake. My Grandma Loudin used to call me when she would make her dried apple pie!! 🍎 Loved it!!
Looked like a wonderful Thanksgiving woth all the family gathered,and the food looked so good.Have a blessed week
I just wanted to say Thank Y’all for allowing me to be apart of your Family’s and celebrating this wonderful time of the year knowing that YaHWeH is the reason we celebrate. Watching your Family gather to visit with one another, the Girls picking and playing brings out the heart of Appalachia and so many memories of yesteryear that it brings a tear of joy to my eye. Watching your family gather around the kitchen table that the Ladies of the house have set and the Family Grand Father or in Y’all’s case Mr. Presley calls the Family into the kitchen table as everyone joins hands bowing their heads as He says the Recognition and Thank You Prayer to YaHWeH Giving Thanks! I will continue to pray for Y’all Daily and again Thanks be to You Mr. & Miss Presley for allowing me a total stranger to be apart of your Holliday Season, Your Friend in Christ Jesus, Steven!
So glad you enjoyed being part of our day!! My brother Steve said the blessing 😀 God is good!!
Thank you Tipper for including us in your wonderful Thanksgiving celebration. From watching you gather dried foliage to final cleanup with your girls, I loved every minute of it. The dried apple stack cake brought back many happy memories. It was my Dad's favorite cake. Our family has shrunk this year. We lost our Dad and our beloved brother so we haven't gotten as excited about the holidays. But we were so very blessed for many many years to have times like your dinner/get-together. I know you cherish your loved ones as it is so evident in all you do as a Mom, a wife, and a daughter . Your food looked so delicious. Again thank you.
Aw so sorry to read that you lost your dad and brother last year, hopefully this thanksgiving will be a happier time for you all, with the knowledge your daddy & brother will be watching with a big smile on their faces. There is no sadness in heaven. God bless Sara
@@lochamb1234 Thank you.
This lovely video made me cry when you were looking for and arranging greenery for your table. My precious mother use to do the exact same thing. She would put Fall leaves, Holly and red berries, and anything beautiful from nature. Thank you for sharing your wonderful life.
Most wholesome channel on RUclips. Fantastic view into a model American family. 👌
You are so kind-thank you 😀
It’s the way that so many Americans used to live and celebrate holidays…. I love watching this channel because it reminds me of the way I grew up in East Tennessee , and reminds me that there are some families that are still living and celebrating the old ways.
So sweet that Granny requested the Apple Stack Cake. I have never tried one but hope to one day! My mother dried apples every chance she got. They are the best when cooked down! Enjoy seeing your family gathering! Thanks from Mississippi!
The stack cake looks great. THE most wonderful desert of all time in my opinion! My grandmother used to make one for me for my birthday and made another for the Holidays. The dried fruit is so much better than fresh fruit cakes. I remember helping my grandmother with lifting the pots or cake sheets in her later years due to wrist problems, but she assembled the multi layered cake herself. I was more than happy to help because I knew the outcome would be absolutely wonderful. Sadly, that recipe and talent is almost lost these days. Fried pies are a close second, but it is becoming more difficult to find dried fruit fried pies now. The dried fruit is the key. Luckily there is an apple orchard near Cleveland that still makes dried fruit apple pies. I typically buy a dozen or two every year and freeze them after vacuum sealing to prevent freezer burn. They last almost all year unless my sweet tooth works overtime. Thanks.
The apples look very much like apple butter
How wonderful it would be to walk into a house with that wonderful music playing!!!
So much appreciated!
Thank you.
Happy Thanksgiving you all.
❤❤❤
This was so sweet to watch, it takes me back to my childhood Thanksgivings on the farm. I've no living family left, so I go to church service on Thanksgiving morning then help in the kitchen serving the community dinner, which is quite gratifying and just as well. Thank you for sharing. I think I need to add the Apple Stack Cake to my to-bake list.
I think that I've watched your Thanksgiving dinner 2 or 3 times. It's so wonderful seeing all those family members getting together , bringing all that delicious food to share, and it's all genuine good family love and enjoyment of delicious food. It's wonderful to have the space to have great family gatherings.
What more can one asked than being with family on a day of giving thanks to God for all that he has shared with us as his children. All the food looked great the only thing I didn’t see was cranberry sauce with whole cranberries. 😮 God is great and he loves his children blessings upon all
Love the music and your menu sounds yummy
Thank you 😀
Happy Thanksgiving! So wonderful to see family together times!! Thank you for including us, makes me feel like part of your family!! Many Blessings to all of you!!
So glad you enjoyed it 😀
The only "normal" thing in my life right now is your family's videos. LOL! So happy I can click on and watch normal people doing normal things. Peaceful and Loving. :)
Thank you for sharing your Day. I always appreciate seeing videos of Appalachia.
I often look for them on RUclips. I grew up in Newfoundland and the Appalachains run right up North into my province. You ways of living are so kin to my own and I feel a kindred spirit whilst listening to you and it makes me feel homesick , although I did just spend over a month there visiting all my people on my side and my husband's side . And even had Thanksgiving there .... I brought back home to British Columbia some of my eldest sister's homemade Zucchini Pickles.... and the kind of bologna I grew up eating and the wonderful Atlantic cod fish which is used to make our favourite dish of Fish n' Brewis ... eaten by our forefathers when they fished the open waters of the Atlantic. How the foods and the music and the people keep warm and rich our lives no matter how far or how long we are away form home. Thank you to the good man who prayed and said all the important things we give thanks for on Thanksgiving. No wonder it all becomes part of us. It sounded like home. God bless you all.
So glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for sharing 😀
Don't you just love it when a plan is perfectly executed! Thank you so much for including us for this Thanksgiving celebration🙂. You have a very lovely family and I'm sure a good time was had by all. Hugs
Glad you had a wonderful thanksgiving! Food look so good! Thats a great deal of work, but so worth it!
Thanks Tipper for sharing your holiday with us!
So glad you enjoyed it 😀
So much to be thankful for when there's so much appreciation for family and friends. The coming together seemed so filled with joy, and all of the food looked so good and I'm near positive that everything tasted as good as it looked. I'm sure hoping that your channel experience's an explosion in growth
You are so kind-thank you 😀
Love the sped up part of the video........feels like what my life is like leading up to the extended family gathering for Thanksgiving! So much to do that you end up going at warp speed!
That ham sure looked good. Getting more and more difficult to find a real bone-in ham that is not spiral cut! Bless you and your family.
Tipper, You are amazing as always!
I loved all of your Fall Decorations!
Beautiful Tables and the Food all looked scrumptious. Your Russian Tea sounds delicious.
I loved the Bowl for the Rolls!
The Girls just continue to grow into their music - loved hearing them play their instruments - what a nice way to lighten and brighten the day in the midst of all the preparation.
Everyone worked so hard to make a beautiful meal - and yet you all made it look so easy!
It was beautiful to watch all of you working together.
Kudos to ALL of your Family - both in-house and those coming for the day - for the help they gave in helping with the meal.
How Blessed you are to have so many loved ones to share Thanksgiving with - and that they each have a special dish to add to the table - and so special that you have both Mom Cindy and Granny to come and celebrate the day and add their special dishes to the fare!
The only thing I didn't see was Cranberry Sauce!?
Your Girls were so cute at the end -
just like their Mama!
God Bless You All and Thank You so much for sharing your 2022 Appalachian Thanksgiving with us.
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it!! We forgot the cranberry sauce! Matt is the only one who likes it and he prefers the canned kind-I forgot to open the can 😀 Poor Matt!
I have drapes in my bed room made out of bed twin sheets…the rolls look delicious…ham and turkey is what we have for thanksgiving most of the time.
The stack cake looks amazing. I had an old coworker who passed away that made a really good apple stack cake. We’re up here in Michigan but her family was from North Carolina. She made hers with apple butter but said some people use apple sauce.
I especially appreciate the blessing that was prayed before the meal. Your turkey, dressing and apple cake with custard look delicious!
Nature, in all her beautiful glory just outside your door, breathtaking. Thank you for sharing your & your families holiday traditions & fun.
So glad you enjoyed it! Thank you Lisa-we so appreciate your support 😀
@@CelebratingAppalachia it’s absolutely my pleasure 💜
Your girls are so precious Tipper.
That apple layer cake looked amazing. I've never seen anything like it. Thank you for sharing.
Loved all your decorations and your food looked so good (mouth watering) lol thanks for sharing your Thanksgiving love this channel 🤍 the cake was so pretty all the layers I have to mention that
Thank you so much 🤗
Brings back wonderful memories of my family all gathered at my great grandmother's home for the holidays. Thank you so much for sharing. Happy Thanksgiving.
I love your tip about using sheets for other things, such as a tablecloth or curtain. I found 2 beautiful floral sheets at salvation army and hospice thrift store that I've repurposed as tablecloths 😉. Beautiful Thanksgiving 😍!
Thank you 😀
It looked like a lot of planning and work as mine was too. I love making arrangements too even when things become sparse in the late fall. That cake looked really interesting and good! What a special gift to have musicians in your family!
Love how you take such care in making the special day festive w the greenery around the house.
It is 7:54 am and I am watching this video getting so excited for the holidays.
I really enjoyed being at your home for Thanksgiving dinner via the you tube! Everything looked absolutely delicious. Thanks for sharing your family time with us. When you were gathering the green branches & dried things for your decorations I was drawn to the little dried flowers that you picked. They were perfect for your arrangements. Loved listening to Katie & Corie's music! Hugs!
You got your self a beautiful turkey, I remember those days as a child a house full of family and friends. Now it's just my son and I at 59 years of age. Holidays are better with family and friends and lots of cheerful smiles. I baked and cooked up a storm even if it was us two. Beautiful day. Hugs from VA
💐Thank you for sharing your blessed day!! Been catching up on older vids of yours and the girls, including music. You and your family are all so lovely, and it warms my heart to see the closeness you all have ☺️💐
Thank you so much!!
I'm from Cherokee County, GA and most of my family lives round Jasper up through Blue Ridge. I've been living in Seoul, South Korea for the past 3 years and I've been terribly homesick as of recent because I haven't been able to enjoy any holidays with my family or any kinda food like I used to. I just found your channel and it honestly brings a tear to my eye hearing and seeing everything. Your accent sounds just like my grandmother who's getting up there in years and I miss her so dearly. We'd always gather up at her house for the Holidays with my cousins and their families and have a big feast together. I honestly don't know when I'll be able to see them again because of how expensive flights are, but I wanna sincerely thank you for posting these wonderful videos. It warms my heart after living in a big city in a foreign country for so long. God bless you and yours, Thanks again
So glad you enjoyed it! Happy to give you a taste of home and to remind you of your grandmother 😀
I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving...I am so grateful for you...and yours...God bless you all!!❤️🎄🙏🙏
My Mom always baked a apple sauce cake for Christmas, she rolled out 6 or 8 thin layers,after it set for a day or 2 ,it was better. It was so good.
That little ceramic turkey flower holder...I have a set of 2 that my mom gave me. She's had them for as long as I can remember and she's 97 years old. It tickled me to see you have one also.
Love that 😀
Thank you lovely family for sharing your Thanksgiving with so many of us.I just want to say that if every family in the USA and Canada would live by your example what joy and happiness we all would experience. You are all such a blessing. I am appreciating your Appalachian ways of life so much. As I said before you all make me want to live there too.God bless you all and take care.Im going to keep watching.
You are so kind-thank you 😀
I used to love to go shopping in the woods😊 I loved to get those wild dried hydrangeas we called them 7bark and other things to stick in the holes of the Christmas tree…made it look So pretty💚
Tipper, I can’t believe you didn’t get a little piece of that dressing that looked soooo good. I was saying “dressing, dressing, you forgot the dressing!” 😂…I like dressing, can you tell. 😆 Hearing everybody chatting and seeing some that gathered reminded me of how my family would all get together at my mom’s house on Thanksgiving. Mom made the Turkey and dressing, sweet potatoes and each family brought the side dish they liked. Her countertops and kitchen table were loaded with food. I sure do miss that time in life and it was also my mom’s birthday so it was extra special time to celebrate. She loved when all us kids and our families came together to just be a family. Cherish every moment with Granny and all your family. Thank you for sharing your family time with us this Thanksgiving. You are blessed!
So glad you enjoyed it 😀
I love every video ya'll put out, but I do believe this one is my favorite so far!! The table settings were lovely!! And all that food looked soooo good. I've never prepped my turkey to set in the fridge over night but I sure will next year, I dont know why I never thought to do that. LoL the past 30 years I've wrangled that cold bird at 4 a.m. half asleep and waiting for that first pot of coffee to get done! Thank you Tipper for sharing your families Thanksgiving with us.
Thanks so much 😊 So glad you enjoyed it!
I just love watching your channel. I grew up in the mountains of North Carolina and our family has the same tradition and believe as your. Love to follow a good christen family!!
Thank you 😀
Catching up with all of you and yours. I'd like to say I absolutely loved the drone going over your land. The beauty of the trees on your property are awesome looking this fall. What a beautiful setting you captured for us. By now Thanksgiving is past, so glad to hear yours was wonderful. I love your touch of gathering what you have grown to, your remnants if you will, that you can bring in and have one last hurrah from it while being thankful to God who provided to ourselves and others this past year.
Glad you enjoyed it!!
This is a sweet video. I love to see how other people celebrate. And I like ideas for new things to try too. Like the apple cake and Russian tea. This year was very nice. We just had my son and his wife and kids, my husband , my youngest daughter and myself. I made cranberries, green bean casserole, stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy,pork loin, pear cake and danishes. My daughter inlaw brought a beautiful pumpkin cheesecake she made. We have a tradition that after Thanksgiving dinner we decorate for Christmas. My granddaughter had a lot of fun with that.
Sounds wonderful 😀
As always, thanks for sharing. Everything looked delicious. We had an abbreviated Thanksgiving because my daughter and her two youngest were sick, but we communicated with them off and on all day. It was a joyful day and we were thankful for SO much, not to mention the good food! ❤️
I hope they feel better soon!!
Watching you do all that cooking brought back many wonderfull memories w my mom and grandmother helping them.
Your videos are so relaxing to watch. I do not live near the Appalachian region, but I love Appalachian culture.
Hi Tipper, it was such a treat to see your family celebrate Thanksgiving and be included in your gathering. I was raised in Upstate New York but my gramma Clum was raised in Appalachia and so much of what you were doing in the video felt warm and familiar to me though it was a long time ago and I live in Seattle now. I got a little misty eyed watching you prepare for the celebration but I broke down and cried when Matt said the blessing. Once again you and your family touched my heart. I am so grateful for what you do. God bless you.🙂
I love those decorations... Very pretty... I hope you Appalachian people have a great great Christmas.. God bless y'all... From Michigan.
I'm sitting here thankful for what I am about to eat (a corn dog, that I love). And drooling over your food
