In this day and time it's a pure pleasaure to watch you both. Your family are just good people. 👏
Thank you so much 😀
I always feel so relaxed and comforted when I watch you two and the girls.
Yep, me too. I like these folks much better than I ever have my own blood relatives. I haven't seen my Sister or her Brother in years and probably won't and I'm fine with that. But Tipper, Matt and the Girls, I would enjoy watching all day...
These Q & A’s with you & Matt are so fun,Tipper! It’s like we get to learn new things about our distant, but much loved relatives! Matt is such a hoot and I love his sense of humor. So many of the humorous things he says, reminds me of my precious daddy. My daddy has gone on to be with Jesus now, but he had the most wonderful, fun-loving personality & he kept his endearing sense of humor until his death…even during his last couple of years, when I know he was suffering…daddy still found a reason to laugh, & to bring laughter to his wife, four daughters, grandchildren & great-grandchildren. My daddy was a good ole’, hard working country boy & he was all about God, his family, his garden, fishing, hunting & all things outdoors. He was a wonderful provider & a wonderful father. Basically, he was an older, balder version of your Matt. Lol. They just don’t make men like them anymore! Thanks for another great video. Mama & I sure enjoyed it. God bless you all.🙏🏻💕
I love the entire family. I can be in the crummiest mood and turn you folks on and in no time at all, I’m doing just fine! Thank you so much for that!!!
Matt and Tipper,
We are the ones blessed by you and your family. Thanks for sharing your skills and lives with us! ❤
You are so kind-thank you 😀
Tipper, I need to find the song from the Galveston Hurricane. My best friend wrote about it for the Daughter's of the Republic of Texas essay contest one year. Ruth's family owned Ashton Villa there in the day. I'll find the song. Thank you!
I really enjoyed the q & a. Love getting to know you and your family better. Thank you so much for sharing with us.
@@amyhamilton2201 Here it is: ruclips.net/video/8Gdz6M2b8ks/видео.html 😀
Loved the Q&A! And just hearing more about your family and Appalachian! Hope it happens soon for Matt to be able to quit his job and be full time for Celebrating Appalachian!!🩷🥰
A 3rd Q&A would be great. I'm several years older than you, and across the country, but still I identify with you. You take me back to how I was raised. I look forward to your videos, I really enjoy you and Matt sitting and talking. Love your sweet girls, and the values you and Matt have instilled in them. Thank you for sharing your family with us, and bringing back the memories I treasure! 😃❤
You put it it well. I agree with what you said. It's just relaxing to watch their family.
Me and my wife both enjoy your channel more than any other we can't wait for the next video. Speaking of my wife. She had heart surgery last week but is doing well. I brought her home this afternoon. Been a rough week for her but she is so glad to be back home. Thank you for sharing your lives with us.
Praying for a speedy recovery for your wife, friend.
@Roadtaken-fi1cd thank you
I too will say a prayer for your wife.
Praying for your wife and you as well.
My husband has heart failure. I feel for you.
Tipper you were thanking the viewers for watching, but we should all be thanking you and your family. Y'all are so centered and real and genuine. Watching your channel is so calming and reassuring because of the love and closeness y'all have and most of all your faith. If people who are out there searching for peace and joy and love would start to watch y'all, it would change them. It might make them slow down and appreciate the life and blessings they have. I feel like y'all are family.
Thank You for Sharing your life with us! I live here in OntarioCanada! 😊😎🙏🤗😂😃🙁
I love these Q&A videos! It’s so fun to learn more about my RUclips family. 😊 I like seeing Matt’s sense of humor come out. 😂 You look so pretty in pink.
Yay! Thank you!
Y’all are just good people. God bless you both.
You are so kind-thank you 😀
I could listen to y'all all day and night. Bring it!!
Thanks for the Rice song about the Galveston Flood. I adore Bluegrass!
Tipper is a special woman!!💐👸🏻💐Her parents raised a wonderful woman! Y’all are GOOD people!!🥰
Oh thank you 🙏
Thanks!
im like matt, tomato season in my garden means tomato sandwiches in my kitchen lunches, I love love beef steak tomato sandwiches
thank you both ❤
Kindness, thoughtfulness, sharing, helping, giving, always thinking of someone else in need. That's the Pressley family. Thank you for being a loving and caring family. It is truly a blessing to come to your channel and just sit and be quiet and watch and listen to everything you have to share with others. Prayers for Granny and her health. God bless you and yours, Always in Christ name, Amen
Please continue the Q & A sessions. I love them. Not only do I learn more about you all but I think about how I would answer some of the questions and perhaps learn something about myself.😊
This was another fun video being able to learn a little more about you two. Praying for granny and give us an update when you can
You have blessed me too. I started watching Celebrating Appalachia in 2020. I saw your channel on my suggested channels and the title appealed to me immediately because I am also, as you say Tipper, "plum foolish" about Appalachian culture. I am such a fan of your channel, as well as the girls' channel. God bless you all and keep up the great work! You make Appalachia proud! 😀❤
That is so crazy that I was thinking of a memory when I was young and sitting in a chair, holding my baby sister and I dropped her and she was weeks or months old and then Matt spoke of being dropped.
This is for Matt!! My Daddy had a Jeep also, I assume it was left over from WW11. It was painted blue. When my brother turned 6, Daddy shifted that gear down into some very low gear, twisted something on the hub caps & let my brother stand up in the front seat & drive all over r 2 acres. My brother said he never walked again- more trucks, forklifts, dump trucks, etc. Now because I was a GIRL I wasn’t allowed to drive until I went off to college & teacher that were going to teach Drivers Education needed a student - I finally learned how to drive. Ur journey all over the area brought back lots of memories. Thanks
I'm so envious of your life together as a married couple living in the woods and sharing a life together...I always wanted for that!
We live here in Texas and I have read about the Galveston hurricane of 1900. The nuns tied the little orphans to them to save them, but all were lost but 1 little boy who got caught up in a tree ,very sad.
I just want to let you know how much I enjoy your channel. I have learned so much about my family from watching your channel. See I did a DNA test and I knew my family was from Eastern Kentucky, but until I watched your channel, I didn't know why we ate soupy pinto beans and cornbread, or why my Dad crumbled his cornbread and put his soup beans on top. It's an Appalachian thing. Thank you for keeping the heritage alive
I KNEW I loved y’all but Tony Rice and Ricky Skaggs. YESSS!! I played mandolin, sang and acted a fool in a bluegrass band here in Va Beach/Norfolk Va back in the 80’s. I met both of those men playing at festivals. Tony Rice was a master.
As a new follower, I love learning more about you all. Interesting you mention Tony Rice as a friend told me today I should look for his music. I have no reason to think that I have anyone from my family that ever lived in Appalacia but my heart sure feels a pull to it. And your videos help me to realize it's ok to slow down and just sit a while. Feel like I'm right there sitting with you.❤
Tipper and Matt. I love your answering those questions. But mostly, I just wanted to let you know how much you've both added to my life. Thank you.
Bless you! And thank you! We appreciate you so much!!
I absolutely agree Tipper, the Skaggs & Rice album is wonderful! "Talk About Suffering" is my favorite song off of that album. RIP Tony Rice
Great to see Matt coming out front more. Didn’t realize what a great sense of humor he has.
The two of you are a natural relaxant to watch and listen to.
God did well when he put you two together. 🙂
Hope Granny is doing well…prayers continuing 💛🙏🏻
I definitely would like to see more questions and answers. I have thoroughly enjoyed these. You enrich our lives, you and Matt, with your stories and experiences.
My Dad always told me, "You can do anything you want to do. You just have to want to do it bad enough." This has been my lifeline many times. Thank you for sharing with us. You are such a blessing!
Great wisdom 😀
Share part 3 whenever you like or are ready ---we're happily here for it all. Have a blessed day Appalachian friends. Y'all are in our prayers. -much love from NJ ~Mary & fam

ditto... from NJ too
I just love your channel, Tipper! You remind me of how I was raised. It makes me miss my Grannies, who were both southern ladies to the core. I also love how you leave the camera rolling while you and Matt just talk. It’s so relaxing to watch, especially with so many disturbing things in the news and on TV these days. You take us back to a much simpler time. Always looking forward to a new video. ❤
Favorite memory because I loved my grandpa so much was sitting on the porch with him while he ate his favorite raw hambuger sandwich and he gave me a bite. I have loved raw beef ever since. But I love him more and that memory. I miss him so much.
So nice to spend my time shuckin and freezing corn while I visit with y’all. ❤
Been watching u all for about 6 months now. U are all great down to earth people. I definitely got some new viewers for u. They all love u too. I live in mid west Ohio, 7 miles from Indiana. Small town, love it here. It's beautiful where u live. Thank for all the entertainment. U guys are awesome, God fearing people.
I really appreciate you all’s family. It is comforting to me. I am absolutely sure most of the reason you all have such a close family is you are close to God.
And you have passed it along to your daughters. I truly loved Corie’s recent tribute to Miss Cindy and how she shared her faith.
That goes back to the closeness of your family ties and your Faith.
Matt and Tipper it is clear that you love each other and your family and even friends. Your love is clearly visible.
❤❤🎉🎉thank you so much for this video!❤
I could watch 50 more of these.❤even though you say you tube blesses you, we the people on the receiving end are the truly blest ones!!! Thank you.
We are having our first sweet corn here in pa. And are picking blueberries 🫐 tomorrow!
THE LORD IS GOOD!
PRAY HE CONTINES TO BLESS YOUR FAMILY AND THIS GREAT COUNTRY.😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You all are like my family, so down to earth. Good folks 👍
I love listening to y'all while I'm out working in the gardens. You inspire me to keep going in these 90 and 100 degree days!. I love and appreciate the videos!
I love these I call talks, so many enjoy your channel, especially us so-called city folks. I say if you don’t have a garden, you might be city folks. God bless
I always loved tobtead n read to the little kids in the neighborhood
Tipper I’m forever grateful for you and your willingness to share the beauty of home!
My pleasure!
Tipper and Matt, We are thankful for your ideas for gardening. We are both elderly and love raising a garden and your videos have helped us do this easier. We now use cattle panels, a Vego raised bed and grow bags. We would not have done this if not for your informative videos. Green beans, tomatoes ,cucumbers, mustard greens, onions, and potatoes have already been harvested. We look forward to all your videos. God Bless you both.
That is awesome!
We love your common sense morals and ethics..
And your recipes!
And your garden and the beautiful scenery!
And you're a wonderful accent!!
Love you both! Love you both!❤❤❤
Thank you so much 😊
Aa a child I had growing pains. Thank you Matt for helping Corrie through it. I still remember how much it hurt. Love your family.
Thank you for sharing your stories. It was so interesting to here how you got this far on RUclips, since I only just started watching your channel this year, I did not know. You are both so soft spoken and nice to listen to. You provide such wonderful content. Thank you
I look forward to your channel. I check everyday and enjoy all that you share. The Q and A is especially interesting. Blessings🙏
I love hearing the wisdom from your parents. That invaluable wisdom carries on, never gets old and is a true treasure to hear. Thank you for sharing.
My momma used to say, “ don’t worry about things that might happen, if it doesn’t than you worried for nothing and if it does happen then you’ll have to worry twice as long.”
Love that 😀
Would love for y’all to continue with the Q&A. It is so relaxing listening to both of you. ❤
I enjoy your conversations a lot and look forward to your videos
🌼wow I got to start watching earlier in the day cause when you two start meal planning and I'm watching at 2am you make me hungry !! 🌼
I absolutely love these Q &A sessions with you and Matt! Great getting to know you better! Good people with good values…my kind of people! Tipper, like you, I love reading!! Can’t wait till the 3rd session!! God bless and live to you both!! 💕🤗🙏🏻
Tipper, so glad you told the story about bloody bones! I told you before that my family the Ledfords were from Shooting Creek. That’s one of the things we were always told. Be good or bloody bones will get you! I thought it was just something my grandparents started.
I randomly came across your channel a while back and was immediately drawn to the title. My father was from Tennessee and I was very close to his mother until her death at 93. They've both been gone for a decades now and I miss their language, cooking and stories. So, nostalgia made me click on your video and I've been hooked ever since. I've ordered the cookbook for myself and my son. It's a link to my father, who passed long before my children were born.
Grandmother perhaps!!
@@watchinglclowns9890 yes, but wanted to distinguish between my paternal and maternal grandmothers.
I'm so glad you enjoy our videos and that we remind you of good times and family 😀
Love this! So good to escape to something that is authentic. Brings me way back to my childhood ( I'm 66 yrs old/young ) spending time with my mamma and grandaddy. Garden they had and the pen for granddaddy's hunting dogs. When all of the noise of the present moments, it is so good to just watch you two and your daughters doing things.
My favorite part of the videos is when the two of you are just talking to each other.

Thank you for posting these Q & A videos! I really appreciate being able to vicariously experience southern Appalachia even though I don't get to live there anymore or get to visit much. Getting to see you all in your garden, cooking or preserving food is such a comfort and feels like being with family. Thanks again!
We are here and you are there and we are glad. Thanks . Many times it is like being back in the good days during the 1950's.
I first saw Tony Rice in 1988. I was fortunate to see him numerous times before he had to quit singing. I loved his voice as well.
Please go ahead with part 3, I enjoy hearing your stories and insights! I would be over the moon to see more Matt on the channel if that’s in the plans. Heck strap a GoPro to your boat and take us on a kayak fishing adventure 🎣☀️and call it a days work😊
I'm a repeat of all your comments.... We are blessed to have you, Matt and Tipper and your family sharing your life with us. I hope you really understand the impact you have made on so many people. We need more people like you in the world.
Thanks for sharing Tipper. A part 3 of the Q&A would be wonderful.
You are so kind-thank you 😀
Thank you for sharing your family and life with us. I have been recovering this summer from knee replacements. It is like being outside in the woods, the garden or just sitting in the yard visiting. I so appreciate your family and the old ways and values. In this troubled world its such a comfort to sit a while with you guys and visit. Praying for Granny. God bless you all and God bless America.
Thank you Lisa!! I hope the knees are soon healed 😀
I Enjoyed so Much, Tipper & Matt, Always My Pleasure to Watch & Listen as You All do the Q & A's, gardening or whatever it might be. My Daddy rubbed My legs from the time I was a Young girl..rubbing alcohol & get them warm by the wood stove in Winter..Summer just the Same but using blanket...GOD BLESS YOU ALL .. Love Your Channel even with health issues I get behind but I try to get back through...Prayers for Granny too.
I enjoyed spending my evening with you and Matt. Thank you so being so genuine and honest. I feel your channel is a youtube treasure, and I pray that God will continue to bless you and yours. Yes, I'd love to hear the third edition. Dinner sounds sounds lovely. Hope you enjoyed it. Peace be with you.
I’m glad you and Matt shared your life lessons. It’s been so hard for so long I forget that there is good too. So thanks to you and Matt for reminding me! Y’all are so helpful, you don’t even know!!!!😢😮😊❤
Dear Tipper and Matt, we enjoy watching you so much, I think your the nicest thing on tv and it’s a learning experience. A couple of things, my husband grew up with a 22 magnum and he would like to know what kind of Rifle Matt uses in 22 Magnum. So I like to make Blueberry pie (my Bible study loves it) I have used The Wild Maine Blueberry pie recipe in Yankee Magazine. The pie crust is all butter and the thing is a food processor, frozen butter, ice water, AP flour, salt and a little sugar. Blend the butter into the dry, pour into the feed tube the ice water slowly until it clumps and stop immediately. Take out and make 2 discs and refrigerate for 1/2 hour. Roll out on a floured board. This is perfect Tipper and the better thing is Irish grass fed butter. You can taste the difference. Fresh blueberries, 3 Tbsp minute tapioca, sugar and butter.
2 1/2 C Flour
1 C butter cubed and frozen
1 Tbsp sugar
1 tsp Salt
6-8 tablespoons ice cold water
Add flour, sugar and salt to a food processor and mix it. Add butter and mix it until it looks like corn meal. While running dribble in water just until it clumps, stop immediately. Take out and make two discs and wrap in plastic a refrigerate at least 1/2 hour or over night. Roll on a flour dusted board. This is for a 9 inch pie plate.
Filling
5 C blueberries and frozen is fine but don’t thaw.
2/3 C sugar
1 Tbsp lemon juice
3 Tbsp minute tapioca
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 pinch nutmeg
5-6 pats of butter
Add blueberry mixture to pie shell and top with butter. Top with top crust and flute the edge. Brush with egg wash and sprinkle with a little sugar, bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes or longer. How hot does your oven run? If you get really hot and berry juice is bubbling I’d say you’re done. Just keep an eye on it. This crust is a winner and is so light and flakey, just lovely and I get a lot of requests for this pie. I give it to you with all my love. I enjoy your writing to much and love getting to sit and visit with you and your family, it is such a pleasure to see your garden, watch you cook, see Granny and what’s she doing. Tell everyone I said Hi and god bless you all. Can’t wait until I get your cook book, wish I could have it signed.
Your friend,
Jennifer Gearhart
Sounds so good! Thank you 😃
Perfection..can't comment any more honestly..in every area..ty..xoxo 🥰👍✌🖐🤟🤪
I REALLY LOVE YOU GUY'S, YOU ARE SOOOO REAL. STRAIGHT SOUTHERN COUNTRY. YOU MAKE ME MISS HOME SOOOO MUCH. IT CAN BE HARD TO WATCH YOU SOMETIMES. BE 'BLESSED 'ALWAYS 'IN 'CHRIST. 👑👑🕊📿🙏🦋❣. 7/18/2023. @ 7:31 PM.
Your girls are so blessed!! Matt rubbing Corys legs when she was young made me tear up!! I heard my biological father tell my mom that he didn't want the responsibility of me anymore. I was about 6 or 7!!!! My stepfather was my Daddy!!!!!!!! I miss him so so much!!
I love listen to you both chat. Still reminds me of my mom and dad ❤
I love your Q & A Videos. Keep ‘em coming. I just find your content fascinating. Almost always I’m watching on our big screen TV, so commenting is not possible, but I love watching you all and wish you continued success with your channel. ❤️❤️❤️
Tipper, I just love you and Matt…you’re such nice people! I will watch your videos as long as you post them…I love the girls too! So keep ‘em coming…I look forward to each and every one❤ you have a way of making us feel like we really are part of your family!
Thanks so much
As an Eastern Kentucky girlie, I was driving a tobacco wagon and tractor by six or seven; I still drive a 6 speed vehicle. No worries about auto theft here!
I really like these! You're good and interesting people, and I love the way you live. Take care, and God bless!
I grew up on a farm and started learning to drive around 8 or 10 years old... driving the truck on the dirt road on the property, helping during irrigation with checking pipes.
I enjoy this very much I look forward every day for a new video I have got my brother and my sister watching you now
Love these question and answer videos. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us. May God richly bless you and your family.
Your sweet girls show the best they were taught by their amazing parents
You are so kind-thank you 😀
I really did enjoy part 2 of the Q&A. Thank y’all for sharing so much of your lives with us. Y’all really are like good close friends sitting around just having conversations. I hope and pray God continues to bless y’all so Matt can stay home to help produce more good videos.
Tony Rice is an Iconic figure in the bluegrass world Tipper, we all strive to be like him though most of us will never even come close
You need to make this a once a month video deal or project. Just the two of you sharing life. Really enjoyed these videos. Thanks for sharing.
My favorite Tony Rice song would probably be rock salt and nails. But he had a bunch of good ones. What a wonderful artist he was. I love bluegrass music and I enjoy playing it too!
Your both so well balanced together, God always knows who to match us up with. I love the questions and how generally you both answer them. May God Bless you and your family ❤️🙏❤️
Looking forward to Q&A part 3. I enjoy watching your videos. Thanks for sharing your life with us.
I have been watching YT for many years now. It still astounds me when I see how many views a video gets compared to the likes! I am not sure if YT adds in the views, likes, adds, and whatever else to give the YTuber a pay-out? I do have many YT videos that I subscribe to, and when watching them I always like the video. On my PC I generally don't get adds, but when watching on my I-phone, I see the adds. My congrats to you for having a successful YT channel. Your life now brings me back to my life growing up, in so much as, living a rural life. When watching you videos, they aways seem to calm me down, and spark my interest in the things they bring. Be safe, and God bless you, and your family.
I sure do enjoy the Q and A sessions. You, Matt, and the girls have become like family to me in addition to my own children. I love you all bunches!💞
Thank you for the videos. Feels like a nice visit. You folks are just real people and very relatable. Hope you have a great summer.
Sincerely,
Shannon Duncan
I don’t live in Appalachia but many of my family do, I agree that the people, culture and the food are the best
Thank you 😀
Absolutely love your outfit Mrs. Tipper!!!
Yes, please answer more questions., y’all are so sweet together! How did you meet each other? What is your most favorite meal, dessert? Do you have any pets besides the hens?
It’s like stopping by to visit. ♥️
O yeah! Definitely do a next installment of answering questions. I’m fairly new here but I just love what you and your girls are doing on RUclips. It brings such interesting education, humor and I can sense God’s peace and overflow to your fans on here all while listening 😍💖
I just listened to old home place!! So endearing
Thank you for the video! I admire both of you for your common sense, love of family, work ethic, and love for God. Powerful…
Tipper, pink looks really beautiful on you!
Oh thank you!
I gave up satellite dish tv and don’t miss it at all thanks to y’all and others similar youtube channels I watch. I hope Matt can retire early and he can have time help even more🙏❤️🤗
I love your continued ‘after that show is over’ conversation.
