I don’t know about anyone else but, 39 minutes with Becky and family isn’t NEAR long enough. I could watch these videos all day long, every day!! Becky, I’m very appreciative that you share yourself and family with us!! I really love to watch the videos you put out.
My mom was 4’8” around 90 pounds and she would get 25+ pound turkey to feed our large family. This thing was huge watching her prep that, my dad would have to help her lift it up so she could season it, we kids would laugh because it was so big, what great memories this video triggered seeing both my parents have passed. Hope everyone had a good thanksgiving.
Your Mom is a treasure. Along with her other traits, I really like her organizational skills. It's obvious the love she has for her family. Additionally, your Dad is such a good head of the home, rooted in God and happily caring for the family.
@@billdickhaus Oh my goodness. A compliment given to another doesn't impose anything on you. My couple sentences of compliments were not all encompassing of every trait each has. I chose to list a few that touch my heart. Why are you so offended about a gesture of kindness not directed to you? You're not trying to impose your view on others, are you? These compliments to two people aren't yours to own or to try to change/revise.
Becky watching you and your mom pull off holidays from shopping to prep and final cook, it’s seriously a work of art. So impressive. I love watching you with your parents they are amazing! Everyone’s personality is just awesome
I learned from a chef that a 14-pound turkey takes 4 days in the refrigerator. For a 16-18 pound turkey it can take 7 days. Hope you find this helpful, Debbie Lavigne
Fun fact! The rolls can be made into a great impromptu bread pudding when they have been over cooked and feel hard as rocks😂-add a whiskey sauce for a bonus! I didn’t set a timer and playing with my grandkids is always a welcome distraction😊 we had tons of fun and a bonus dessert🤗
Becky, Its just beautiful to watch you and your mom work together and bring the holiday together. I have not had that experience but once or twice in my live. It is a blessing to watch you both.
I thought I was the only one that had a flow chart for holiday meals 😮 my 17 year old niece ask to help me cook this year...I've never been happier than to have her here with me. She always laughed at my flow chart but this year she got to see how important it was ☺️
Wanted to let you know that you are a big inspiration! I made your dressing, cranberry salsa over cream cheese, pumpkin cheesecake, and cranberry upside down cake as part of our Thanksgiving, they all went over wonderfully! Everyone loved, loved , loved! Thank you!
Would love to see mum take it to the next level, and add a label to each alarm so she doesn't have to refer to the master schedule,...this was AMAZING how well you all pulled if off, your family is SO blessed to have you both
I totally agree with you Nancy. Susan has given Becky some of the greatest gifts a mum and give her daughter. I think to be a home maker and mother is one of the most demanding jobs in the world. To be so well organised and to remain calm in the process is a true achievement. Thanks to all the Mothers out there on this special day. 🌹🌺💐
Happy Thanksgiving. I’m recovering from cancer treatment this year so I truly enjoyed your videos. You keep me so busy! What a feast all prepared with such love and laughter. Thank you so much for sharing with us. I just adore you and now your sweet mom too. I can’t wait to see what “we’re having” for Christmas and I’m on pins and needles until “we” get Baby’s room ready! Much love and light to you, Becky. Always, Terra.
@@BeyondQuaint-TailoredTo Hi there, fellow warrior! Becky’s videos encourage my appetite. It’s so comforting to watch tv that is positive and encouraging, isn’t it? I wish you everything good from here on.
I've only recently found your channel and am watching through all your videos. I can't tell you how therapeutic it is for me to watch the holiday prep videos with your mom. My mom has pretty advanced dementia and it's been a couple of years since she could do these kinds of activities, but they used to be some of our favorite. We've always been super close and best friends, so it's especially hard losing these little bonding moments slowly over time. Thanks for the reminder of how special those times are and we're, and how thankful I am that I had as many as I did with her. As I write I this is currently hospitalized and we are probably starting Hospice care, so I really appreciate reliving some of my favorite memories with her through your videos. ❤
Lost my mom on my birthday in June, 2020. Because of COVID, we couldn't even get to see her at the hospital during her 77 day ordeal. I miss her so much. She was my best travel buddy. We were very close. Seeing you with your mom, makes me smile and yearn for mine. Wishing you both long and healthy lives to enjoy each other's company. Every minute one spends with mom is a treasure.
I'm so sorry for such a horrible end to your Mum's life. In my country we were in level three restrictions of covid and my city was on lockdown for about 4 months at that point and the hostiples had just started to get back to doing non emergency surgery and my mum was called up to have much needed hip replacement surgery. She had a fall the night before and ended up not being able to walk because she injured her hip. We were not allowed to visit her but we finally heard from her that they took her to the main hospital after having xrays to see why her hip was stopping her from walking after the fall. To cut a long story short they found that she was riddled with stage four cancer. She was so drugged up that she wasn't answering her phone and we couldn't get any sense from the nurses. We kept trying to get hold of her doctors and finally a week later they called my dad in to have a meeting where they told him about the cancer and told him she had a matter of weeks left. He brought her home as her wish was to die at home. I had moved back home about five years beforehand because I was terminally ill. She passed away a few months later the day after Christmas. Thirteen months later to the day I found my Dad after he unexpectedly but peacefully passed away in his sleep. I didn't know how I could keep going without them as they were not just my parents but I considered them as close friends. Even though it wasn't covid that took their lives it impacted the time we had together. My lifelong specialists gave me two years at the most to live and so far it's been 14 years and while my quality of life is not good I promised them when I was given two years that I will always fight for my life and that is what I'm doing. I wish you and your loved ones all the best in life.😊❤
Seeing you and your mom in the kitchen makes me miss my mama so very much. She was my best friend and we always cooked holiday meals together like you and your mom. What sweet memories you are making!
As an full time American missionary living and working in Nairobi, Kenya, thanksgiving with family this year was not an option. When you were describing how the turkey smells in the oven, the beauty of the ham in the smoker, the silkiness of the mashed potatoes in the crock pot, etc... and in that instance, I just closed my eyes and dreamed I was back home with all the feels. I never take for granted this Thanksgiving season and what it represents. And for YOU, I am forever grateful. Thank you.
I love your parents so much, Becky! Your dad has a channel, your mom should have a channel too! Does that idea interest her? She is so knowledgeable and seems a natural on camera.
I made my dressing this year with your no knead bread, my husband who has never liked dressing, no only ate this but ate it left over and requested it again for Christmas. You encouraged and inspired me to make an all homemade dinner this year, including homemade bread for dressing, I also made homemade noodles and homemade dinner rolls. I had so much joy cooking this year. Thank you for all of your videos, your recipes and your homesteader wisdom.
I love watching mom and daughter in the kitchen together! You both work so well together. My mom and I sometimes struggle with that. She is a perfectionist, and I'm more easy going. In her home, it's her way, and in my home, it's her way. Lol. But I cherish the memories and moments all the same. I always relate to your videos, because just like you, I spill things, I make mistakes too. It is so refreshing to see someone post everything. It is inspiring! Some content creators are intimidating with only perfection on display. They struggle too, but you are humble enough to show the struggle. Thanks so much! You make me realize that even when things go wrong, they can go really well too! Happy Thanksgiving!
Hey Becky, I have been following you for a few months now. I did some small container gardening inspired by you and today I made my first bulk freezer meal cooking. I made mashed potatoes, baked oatmeal muffins, whole wheat flat breads, stuffed aloo parathas (flat bread stuffed with potatoes) and palak paneer. It feels awesome to know I can pull together a meal within 20-30min now. Thank you so much for your inspiration
The tablecloth! I have a great aunt who has had one of these going since the late 1950's. It probably had 50+ signatures embroidered on it last time I saw. I got to meet her for the first time about 10 years ago (family drama), the year after my dad passed away. It was super cool to see my dad's adult signature and his signature as a small kid. I was honored to get to finally add my name to this incredible piece of family history!
I just recently found out that you can actually label your alarms with needed info when you are setting them up. It's really helped me when I've got a lot going on. I know you have the master list, but this would be good for anyone to see the alarm go off and be able to see to the task without running to the master list. I absolutely LOVE your Mom's organizational/hosting skills!
Love it when your mom joins you in the kitchen. I always learn a new tip. Who would of thought to look up on Pinterest and see pop tart gingerbread houses 🤷♀️❤️
Becky!!!! Please let me give you my new Bosch mixer! I bought it because I have a bakery and I heard great things about it. It works great except on the one thing I make a ton of and that is Royal icing. It breaks the paddles. The paddles they use for the icing are made of plastic at the connection. They aren't strong enough. So it sits un used in my cabinet. I would LOVE for you to have it. Let me know how I can send it to you. I have tons of fun attachments as well. I would get so much pleasure seeing you make some delightful recipes with it
This was the first year me and my mom cooked together. I am 51 so I am very lucky for the experience. We are used to doing the cooking for the parties by ourselves. ( No big deal if you are organized lol ) . Thanks for sharing your life with us.
GOSH do I feel special to tag along with you and your mom. Tell her “thanks for momming us all!” I never feel like it’s time wasted watching Acre Homestead! Love you guys and happy late thanksgiving 🎉🥰
Becky, you and your Mum are like the dynamic duo when you’re working together in the kitchen - great job. You may not be a master baker (your words, not mine) but your enthusiasm is award winning.
I’ve only just started watching this and love the fact that there is a typed list outlining oven times, cooking times, exit times and so on. It is and HAS to be this organized. This is a well oiled machine. I am sure Becky’s family appreciates the result but possibly they aren’t aware of the behind the scenes efforts that Becky and her mum put into this event. Phew! Amazing! And … I have only just started watching this, Part Two.
I used so many of Becky's tips while preparing my Thanksgiving dinner this year. I also made my first white sauce, and I told my daughter that this is the way that Becky does it and she said who is Becky, so I told her! I even bought myself a cast iron Dutch oven, you guessed it because Becky uses them!!! Love you Becky, hope you and your family had a great Thanksgiving.
Re: Turkey. Same thing happened to me. I put my turkey in the fridge Sunday! And Thursday morning, it was still half frozen, with the bag of giblets unreachable. I finally just cooked it anyway. When the turkey was done, I pulled the hot bag of giblets out of the end. Shrugs. Only a 12.87 pound turkey, so I'm not sure why it hadn't completely thawed with 5 days fridged. Hope you all have a lovely Thanksgiving!
Oh that was joyous to watch! Your mum is amazing Becky. I am definitely a fan of Susan’s organising. Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. God bless and stay safe x
I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We had a blast. I made your one hour rolls, pumpkin pie and apple pie and they were a hit. I am actually making the rolls again right now to have turkey sliders, upon everyone’s request.
We went to the website for the pumpkin cheesecake. I agree with Becky that the crust needs 1/2 the sugar and that instead of pumpkin with the sugar and spices, that it would be better with plain pumpkin but keeping the added sugar and added spices. We did make the whipped cream but substituted half the vanilla for natural rum flavoring. Caramel salted pralines would be good on it.
Beck, if your talking about the Bosch bread mixer this gal from”this Alaska life” has her moms and they last a very long time and believe it or not, I’ve never heard of Bosch until I watched her RUclips channel.
I love your mom Becky. She is so organized. I absolutely love all she does! You growing up with her as a mom must have been great!! Hats off to your mom definitely!! Oh btw I love your dad too. 😊😊
I'm so happy that you have a large family that is able to come together on days like these. I was hosting for my small family and no one ended up coming. at first I was upset, but in the end it made for a stress free calm day. Just my husband and I.
I am watching in 2024 getting ready for this Thanksgiving! I love watching and listening to you preparing food. And I love the relationship you have with your mom (and family). I wish I had that. But watching you cook together is so comforting and fun. 🙂
You two work so well together!! I always wished I had that with my mom, no one was allowed in her kitchen but her. You two are so good together. I have a very similar recipe for the rolls, after the dough has risen for 15 minutes, and then you roll the dough into little balls, three to a muffin tin pan hole, they are called clover leaf rolls, and they are beautiful.
This video was phenomenal! EXACTLY how it would be with my mother and myself on Thanksgiving and Christmas when the family was coming over. Oh such sweet, treasured memories! Thank you for inviting us into your mom's house and allowing us to share in the excitement of the day! God Bless all of you! Much love from NW Louisiana🥰
Hi, my husband was told by a butcher years ago that you can take a completely frozen turkey and put it in cold water the night before you need to season/cook it and if you change the water every 2-3 hours, it will be totally thawed. I thought that sounded too good to be true but it works. The only downfall is that someone has to get up and drain/fill the sink every 2-3 hours so we just too turns and it was fine.
You both are so lucky to be like minded and work together so well. I appreciate all of your tips and always come away with good ideas and learn something. Thank you for sharing Edited to add- your mother's impression of a frozen turkey was priceless!
I so love watching you and your mom working together in the kitchen. you guys make such a great team. While each year my sisters and niece get to do this together, my mom passed away 12 years ago, she is still missed each year, but always remembered in stories and the young ones that did know get to meet her, do get to know her thought our stories.. For me it is not the tasty food with family that means thanksgiving, for me is all the hours in the kitchen with my family pulling it together.... the best joy of the holiday for me my most favorite day of the year cooking with the ones you love.. I am going to research your moms plan see if I can show my family for planning for our Christmas dinner. This year I am thankful for you and your family. always a joy to watch. Thank so much for all you do.
Best part of my day is taking time to sit and watch you. Tysm for your thanksgiving three parter. It was so wonderful to watch you and your mom pull it all together. ❤️🥳❤️🤗
I also left my 20 lb Turkey out for about five hours and then in the refrigerator since Sunday. First time I ever still had ice in mine also doing the times given for thawing. I also ran water inside and cleaned it up. Good to go a little bit later. Except for the year that … Funny story, went with my neighbor about 8 years ago and we ordered fresh turkeys to pick up the day before Thanksgiving. Thinking they weren’t frozen. Little did we know they would be frozen. Major thawing happened to try to get ready for the next day. It all worked out in the end; just a much later dinner time. We remember the misses more than the successes. Makes memories fun to look back on. Always love you and your Mom shopping and cooking❤️
I am probably as old as your mom and I have been doing Thanksgiving for years and years. I loved watching the videos because I learned so much and the way your mom does it is so stress-free. I would love to do this with my daughter at Christmas time.
I love thé way your mom sets up the entire menu list, all the recipes & then a time line for when the food gets cooked etc. Such a great stress free prep & process…..WOW.
Becky and Susan, thank you for inviting us along to your Thanksgiving dinner. Everything looked fabulous! I wouldn't be able to walk after all that delicious food. My dinner also turned out very well. I cooked a 5 lb turkey breast in the slow cooker. Was so tender the breast meat fell right off the bones in one piece. God Bless. Love you all! xxoo
Wow, what a terrific Mum. Her organizing skills and tips are just fantastic. You two are a dynamic duo. Love from Australia (sadly not a thanksgiving country)
This all looks awesome. I hope that you all had an amazing Thanksgiving holiday. Im so thankful for you. I was gonna eat a bologna sandwich since my family doesn't get together anymore cause of all of the deaths this time of year and family drama.... but my hunny bunny and her family invited me to their house ❤ God bless you and yours
I just love your mom and I want to thank you for allowing me to be a part of your Thanksgiving. I have been very sick the past week and so I wasn't able to go to my family's dinner and on Wednesday night my aunt broke her hip. She's very frail and in the hospital and I have been a little stressed about it. Your video put a smile on my face for the first time in at least a week. I am so glad you had a great time with your family and I pray you have a wonderful Christmas which is coming up soon. God bless you! 🙏❤️
Don’t thank us for watching. Thank you for sharing with us. I love every post, can’t wait for the next. You are a great cook and creative. I’ve learned a lot from you.
Becky, your rolls were phenomenal! I made them for Thanksgiving and the family loved them! Then the day after, I made another batch because my grandson and his girlfriend came and we had leftover thanksgiving dinner. My grandson is very picky about what he eats. But he loves rolls. He ate 4 or 5, by himself. He LOVED them! Thanks for all you do!
I love your mom! I miss my mama so very much - (we lost her to cancer 6 years ago) Such a sweet relationship you've got with yours, too! Happy Thanksgiving - you are definitely a blessing to me!
Thank you for the many tips to prep for a large get together and delicious recipes. Also your sisters embroidery on the table cloth is fantastic and your dad's flowers for your mom is so thoughtful and lovely. Thank you Becky and Susan for a fantastic video. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I cannot express how much I have enjoyed watching you both prepare your feast. I wasn't with my parents or siblings this year and somehow you sharing your beautiful family with us was so comforting. Cooking with my family is one of my joys in life, and it was lovely to watch you all. Thank you and Happy belated Thanksgiving. Your channel is lovely.
You and your mom are such a joy to watch! Such great people with love and support all around. Hope you had an amazing thanksgiving! From my family to yours.❤
Becky your mom is amazingly organized, and so calm. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your wonderful family! It would be amazing to see you make your sisters pecan cheesecake on your channel!!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family! Enjoyed watching you & Mom cooking together. She is a good planner doing things. It was amazing watching you both pull it all together. Everything looked so yummy. Love the pop tart houses. They all looked so cute. What a great idea. You both did a great job from start to finish. That was alot of work. It’s nice that your Dad & Josh help with the clean up. Thanks for sharing it with all of us! 👍🦃😃
Happy Holidays Beautiful SoilSista's ❤️ I absolutely love how organized Mom is. We are so thankful and blessed to be able to meet you two in Virginia a few weeks ago. Many blessings to you all and can't wait to see the baby bouncing around for Thanksgiving next year ❤️
What a feast!! You girls out did yourselves! Treasure these times with your family. They'll give you so many sweet memories in the future! Thank you for all the great recipes and thank you for letting me spend time with you and your dear Mom and Dad! God bless you and all your loved ones! Happy Thanksgiving!
WOW! Watching you two prep and make everything for a Thanksgiving feast is amazing!! My challenge has often been making sure everything is hot and on time. Thank you for sharing all of your wonderful tips and recipes 💗.
I'm having a sleepless night so I'm on my phone watching Acre Homestead reruns! Haha! I just love your Mom and Dad. They're a natural to the camera like you Becky...and so entertaining.
I made your cranberry salsa recipe, and it was a hit! So delicious, we couldn't stop eating it. It's a winner as you said too! Thank you, and Happy Holidays.
I love the table cloth. My grandma started doing that when her kids got married and it's continued throughout the years. Same tablecloth for Thanksgiving and Christmas and it brings back so many memories 🥰 roughly 35 years of signatures.
Our turkey was still mostly frozen, as well. :D We ended up eating a little later, which was ok. Love that brown sugar ham. Is the son-in-law Southern, because we do that here. I LOVE mashed potatoes in the crock pot. What a game-changer! Everything looks so pretty, hope ya'll had a great time.
I don’t know about anyone else but, 39 minutes with Becky and family isn’t NEAR long enough. I could watch these videos all day long, every day!! Becky, I’m very appreciative that you share yourself and family with us!! I really love to watch the videos you put out.

I absolutely agree!!!!
Very true. But we MIGHT have to get used to it when baby comes❤❤
I also agree. I dont watch tv so really look forward to Becky's videos. Always learn some interesting facts in each one
Me too. Reminds me of cooking with my Mum for big family feasts
My mom was 4’8” around 90 pounds and she would get 25+ pound turkey to feed our large family.

With you being so close to deliver, you are the Energiser Bunny! Do you ever get tired?
You do an amazing job!
Your mom is such a sweet person. To do that much work on pop tart houses for everyone to enjoy is just amazing
I learned from a chef that a 14-pound turkey takes 4 days in the refrigerator. For a 16-18 pound turkey it can take 7 days. Hope you find this helpful, Debbie Lavigne
Yes mine was 17lbd and it took 7 days
Remember your Roasting Pan should have a Defrost Setting that may help in situations like this.😉🦃
Yep, it takes days to defrost a turkey.
Fun fact! The rolls can be made into a great impromptu bread pudding when they have been over cooked and feel hard as rocks😂-add a whiskey sauce for a bonus! I didn’t set a timer and playing with my grandkids is always a welcome distraction😊 we had tons of fun and a bonus dessert🤗
I used your mother's count down clock for Thanksgiving day cooking and everything came out great! Thanks Becky's Mom!
Her name is Susan lol.
I didn’t know Becky‘s mom‘s name either. Lol
Of course remember that you can label or name your alarms on iPhones at least!
I did the countdown as well. Susan is like a kitchen athlete!
YES, you need a Bosch for sure! You and your mom are so great when it comes to your family events. I love watching you both work together.

When we do Brussels sprouts at Christmas we put tinned horse chestnuts with them and cook together.
I would love that cheesecake recipe if your sister is willing to share! That looks so good.

In her home, it's her way, and in my home, it's her way. Lol. But I cherish the memories and moments all the same. I always relate to your videos, because just like you, I spill things, I make mistakes too.
It is so refreshing to see someone post everything. It is inspiring! Some content creators are intimidating with only perfection on display. They struggle too, but you are humble enough to show the struggle. Thanks so much!
You make me realize that even when things go wrong, they can go really well too! Happy Thanksgiving!
I glaze my ham with fig jam, dijon mustard and stone ginger wine. Comes out delicious
😮😮😮 That sounds delicious! God bless you guys have a lovely Thanksgiving! 💓🍁😊
I love when your momma joins you. She is such a delightful person! 🥰
Hey Becky, I have been following you for a few months now. I did some small container gardening inspired by you and today I made my first bulk freezer meal cooking. I made mashed potatoes, baked oatmeal muffins, whole wheat flat breads, stuffed aloo parathas (flat bread stuffed with potatoes) and palak paneer. It feels awesome to know I can pull together a meal within 20-30min now. Thank you so much for your inspiration
The tablecloth! I have a great aunt who has had one of these going since the late 1950's. It probably had 50+ signatures embroidered on it last time I saw. I got to meet her for the first time about 10 years ago (family drama), the year after my dad passed away. It was super cool to see my dad's adult signature and his signature as a small kid. I was honored to get to finally add my name to this incredible piece of family history!
I just recently found out that you can actually label your alarms with needed info when you are setting them up. It's really helped me when I've got a lot going on. I know you have the master list, but this would be good for anyone to see the alarm go off and be able to see to the task without running to the master list. I absolutely LOVE your Mom's organizational/hosting skills!
Love it when your mom joins you in the kitchen. I always learn a new tip. Who would of thought to look up on Pinterest and see pop tart gingerbread houses 🤷♀️❤️
Becky!!!! Please let me give you my new Bosch mixer! I bought it because I have a bakery and I heard great things about it. It works great except on the one thing I make a ton of and that is Royal icing. It breaks the paddles. The paddles they use for the icing are made of plastic at the connection. They aren't strong enough. So it sits un used in my cabinet. I would LOVE for you to have it. Let me know how I can send it to you. I have tons of fun attachments as well.
I would get so much pleasure seeing you make some delightful recipes with it
This was the first year me and my mom cooked together. I am 51 so I am very lucky for the experience. We are used to doing the cooking for the parties by ourselves. ( No big deal if you are organized lol ) . Thanks for sharing your life with us.
GOSH do I feel special to tag along with you and your mom. Tell her “thanks for momming us all!” I never feel like it’s time wasted watching Acre Homestead! Love you guys and happy late thanksgiving 🎉🥰
Becky, you and your Mum are like the dynamic duo when you’re working together in the kitchen - great job. You may not be a master baker (your words, not mine) but your enthusiasm is award winning.
I’ve only just started watching this and love the fact that there is a typed list outlining oven times, cooking times, exit times and so on. It is and HAS to be this organized. This is a well oiled machine. I am sure Becky’s family appreciates the result but possibly they aren’t aware of the behind the scenes efforts that Becky and her mum put into this event. Phew! Amazing! And … I have only just started watching this, Part Two.
Just finished making two cheesecakes and now I’m making a sweet potato casserole so this is perfect! Thanks Becky!
Yummy!!!
I used so many of Becky's tips while preparing my Thanksgiving dinner this year. I also made my first white sauce, and I told my daughter that this is the way that Becky does it and she said who is Becky, so I told her! I even bought myself a cast iron Dutch oven, you guessed it because Becky uses them!!! Love you Becky, hope you and your family had a great Thanksgiving.
Thank you Becky and your mom for what you did today and always
Re: Turkey. Same thing happened to me. I put my turkey in the fridge Sunday! And Thursday morning, it was still half frozen, with the bag of giblets unreachable. I finally just cooked it anyway. When the turkey was done, I pulled the hot bag of giblets out of the end. Shrugs.
Only a 12.87 pound turkey, so I'm not sure why it hadn't completely thawed with 5 days fridged. Hope you all have a lovely Thanksgiving!
Oh that was joyous to watch! Your mum is amazing Becky. I am definitely a fan of Susan’s organising. Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. God bless and stay safe x
I just love when you include your parents, they are so wonderful and fun!
I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We had a blast. I made your one hour rolls, pumpkin pie and apple pie and they were a hit. I am actually making the rolls again right now to have turkey sliders, upon everyone’s request.
I came to the comments to say how good the rolls look!!
I will have to try this recipie now 😎
We went to the website for the pumpkin cheesecake. I agree with Becky that the crust needs 1/2 the sugar and that instead of pumpkin with the sugar and spices, that it would be better with plain pumpkin but keeping the added sugar and added spices. We did make the whipped cream but substituted half the vanilla for natural rum flavoring. Caramel salted pralines would be good on it.
omgosh hubby and I tried the one hour rolls and they were a HIT.. they are a go to now in our house
Beck, if your talking about the Bosch bread mixer this gal from”this Alaska life” has her moms and they last a very long time and believe it or not, I’ve never heard of Bosch until I watched her RUclips channel.
I usually just go with you and agree I never yell at you I may laugh because I do the same thing, I laugh with you, 😊
As for the mixer question....I bought myself an Ankarsrum this summer, and I love it!
I love your mom Becky. She is so organized. I absolutely love all she does! You growing up with her as a mom must have been great!! Hats off to your mom definitely!! Oh btw I love your dad too. 😊😊
I'm so happy that you have a large family that is able to come together on days like these. I was hosting for my small family and no one ended up coming. at first I was upset, but in the end it made for a stress free calm day. Just my husband and I.
Your mom is amazing Becky! Hope you had a great day with your family.
I am watching in 2024 getting ready for this Thanksgiving! I love watching and listening to you preparing food. And I love the relationship you have with your mom (and family). I wish I had that. But watching you cook together is so comforting and fun. 🙂
You two work so well together!! I always wished I had that with my mom, no one was allowed in her kitchen but her. You two are so good together. I have a very similar recipe for the rolls, after the dough has risen for 15 minutes, and then you roll the dough into little balls, three to a muffin tin pan hole, they are called clover leaf rolls, and they are beautiful.
This video was phenomenal! EXACTLY how it would be with my mother and myself on Thanksgiving and Christmas when the family was coming over. Oh such sweet, treasured memories! Thank you for inviting us into your mom's house and allowing us to share in the excitement of the day! God Bless all of you! Much love from NW Louisiana🥰
Cranberry salsa dip was a hit this thanksgiving!! ❤
Yes it was here too at my house
We are having it Sunday!
Same here!!
Same, it was so good!!
@@BLT72 how sad 😢
Hi, my husband was told by a butcher years ago that you can take a completely frozen turkey and put it in cold water the night before you need to season/cook it and if you change the water every 2-3 hours, it will be totally thawed. I thought that sounded too good to be true but it works. The only downfall is that someone has to get up and drain/fill the sink every 2-3 hours so we just too turns and it was fine.
You both are so lucky to be like minded and work together so well. I appreciate all of your tips and always come away with good ideas and learn something. Thank you for sharing Edited to add- your mother's impression of a frozen turkey was priceless!
I so love watching you and your mom working together in the kitchen. you guys make such a great team. While each year my sisters and niece get to do this together, my mom passed away 12 years ago, she is still missed each year, but always remembered in stories and the young ones that did know get to meet her, do get to know her thought our stories.. For me it is not the tasty food with family that means thanksgiving, for me is all the hours in the kitchen with my family pulling it together.... the best joy of the holiday for me my most favorite day of the year cooking with the ones you love.. I am going to research your moms plan see if I can show my family for planning for our Christmas dinner. This year I am thankful for you and your family. always a joy to watch. Thank so much for all you do.
Best part of my day is taking time to sit and watch you. Tysm for your thanksgiving three parter. It was so wonderful to watch you and your mom pull it all together. ❤️🥳❤️🤗
I also left my 20 lb Turkey out for about five hours and then in the refrigerator since Sunday. First time I ever still had ice in mine also doing the times given for thawing. I also ran water inside and cleaned it up. Good to go a little bit later. Except for the year that …
Funny story, went with my neighbor about 8 years ago and we ordered fresh turkeys to pick up the day before Thanksgiving. Thinking they weren’t frozen. Little did we know they would be frozen. Major thawing happened to try to get ready for the next day. It all worked out in the end; just a much later dinner time.
We remember the misses more than the successes. Makes memories fun to look back on.
Always love you and your Mom shopping and cooking❤️
The ending made me teary eyed. Another awesome Thanksgiving shared with these beautiful ladies.
I am probably as old as your mom and I have been doing Thanksgiving for years and years. I loved watching the videos because I learned so much and the way your mom does it is so stress-free. I would love to do this with my daughter at Christmas time.
Your Mom is so organized!!
Had a wonderful Thanksgiving too
Love you two
I love thé way your mom sets up the entire menu list, all the recipes & then a time line for when the food gets cooked etc. Such a great stress free prep & process…..WOW.
Becky and Susan, thank you for inviting us along to your Thanksgiving dinner. Everything looked fabulous! I wouldn't be able to walk after all that delicious food. My dinner also turned out very well. I cooked a 5 lb turkey breast in the slow cooker. Was so tender the breast meat fell right off the bones in one piece. God Bless. Love you all! xxoo
Wow, what a terrific Mum. Her organizing skills and tips are just fantastic. You two are a dynamic duo. Love from Australia (sadly not a thanksgiving country)
This all looks awesome. I hope that you all had an amazing Thanksgiving holiday. Im so thankful for you. I was gonna eat a bologna sandwich since my family doesn't get together anymore cause of all of the deaths this time of year and family drama.... but my hunny bunny and her family invited me to their house ❤ God bless you and yours
Love your mom Becky. She is such an elegant graceful lady.
Thanks for sharing that special time in the kitchen with your mom! What a blessing you both are! God Bless you all❤️
I just love your mom and I want to thank you for allowing me to be a part of your Thanksgiving. I have been very sick the past week and so I wasn't able to go to my family's dinner and on Wednesday night my aunt broke her hip. She's very frail and in the hospital and I have been a little stressed about it. Your video put a smile on my face for the first time in at least a week. I am so glad you had a great time with your family and I pray you have a wonderful Christmas which is coming up soon. God bless you! 🙏❤️
Happy Thanksgiving, friends!!! I hope all the Acre Homestead family has had a wonderful holiday! ❣️
Don’t thank us for watching. Thank you for sharing with us. I love every post, can’t wait for the next. You are a great cook and creative. I’ve learned a lot from you.
I love when you and your mom team up!! Your dad’s cameo😊he’s adorable!!
Absolutely love your sister’s table cloth idea!!
Your mom seems like such a nice person. Someone people don't mind being around for a long time because she gives off like good energy. Yall are great.
Hi Becky & Susan!! I hope y'all had a tasty Thanksgiving! 😋 Have a good weekend girls!
Becky, your rolls were phenomenal! I made them for Thanksgiving and the family loved them! Then the day after, I made another batch because my grandson and his girlfriend came and we had leftover thanksgiving dinner. My grandson is very picky about what he eats. But he loves rolls. He ate 4 or 5, by himself. He LOVED them! Thanks for all you do!
We were grateful to have you and yours in our home this Thanksgiving, even if only by incorporating recipes and scheduling tips.
Seasons Greetings!
I love your mom! I miss my mama so very much - (we lost her to cancer 6 years ago) Such a sweet relationship you've got with yours, too! Happy Thanksgiving - you are definitely a blessing to me!
Thank you for the many tips to prep for a large get together and delicious recipes. Also your sisters embroidery on the table cloth is fantastic and your dad's flowers for your mom is so thoughtful and lovely. Thank you Becky and Susan for a fantastic video. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I cannot express how much I have enjoyed watching you both prepare your feast. I wasn't with my parents or siblings this year and somehow you sharing your beautiful family with us was so comforting. Cooking with my family is one of my joys in life, and it was lovely to watch you all. Thank you and Happy belated Thanksgiving. Your channel is lovely.
You and your mom are such a joy to watch! Such great people with love and support all around. Hope you had an amazing thanksgiving! From my family to yours.❤
Becky your mom is amazingly organized, and so calm. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your wonderful family! It would be amazing to see you make your sisters pecan cheesecake on your channel!!
You and your mom work so well together,Happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family! Enjoyed watching you & Mom cooking together. She is a good planner doing things. It was amazing watching you both pull it all together. Everything looked so yummy. Love the pop tart houses. They all looked so cute. What a great idea. You both did a great job from start to finish. That was alot of work. It’s nice that your Dad & Josh help with the clean up. Thanks for sharing it with all of us! 👍🦃😃
Happy Holidays Beautiful SoilSista's ❤️ I absolutely love how organized Mom is. We are so thankful and blessed to be able to meet you two in Virginia a few weeks ago. Many blessings to you all and can't wait to see the baby bouncing around for Thanksgiving next year ❤️

WOW! Watching you two prep and make everything for a Thanksgiving feast is amazing!! My challenge has often been making sure everything is hot and on time. Thank you for sharing all of your wonderful tips and recipes 💗.
I'm having a sleepless night so I'm on my phone watching Acre Homestead reruns! Haha! I just love your Mom and Dad. They're a natural to the camera like you Becky...and so entertaining.
I just love everything about you and your mom cooking together! You two work together so very well!
I just love Becky and her mom! They have worked so hard for this beautiful meal.

Thank God for ur parents. Ur mom is such a jewel. Enjoy and respect her now. Cause u still have her..
Blessings
Thanksgiving has been wonderful this year!! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family everyone
I love the table cloth. My grandma started doing that when her kids got married and it's continued throughout the years. Same tablecloth for Thanksgiving and Christmas and it brings back so many memories 🥰 roughly 35 years of signatures.
Our turkey was still mostly frozen, as well. :D We ended up eating a little later, which was ok. Love that brown sugar ham. Is the son-in-law Southern, because we do that here.
I LOVE mashed potatoes in the crock pot. What a game-changer!
Everything looks so pretty, hope ya'll had a great time.
