    Dear Kevin, you have officially become my favorite RUclipsr. Creative, well-spoken, calm while enthusiastic, industrious, instructive yet not afraid to show human frailties…you have me wishing we were friends in real life. Kudos also to your unseen camerawoman-editor who does a terrific job keeping up with you! Many, many thanks for what you add to my life. ❤

    Hi Kevin,
    And Happy Sunday to you as well.
    Because I live not far across the border from you, I guess I can say 'our' weather is just fabulous today!
    Thank you for allowing us to join you on your shopping journey today. Very enjoyable, as always. Your potatoes look grand. I've grown them in the past and, like everything else homegrown, they are so fresh tasting and delish!
    And the applesauce bread looks so tasty and comforting. (Problem: I'd eat the entire loaf before day's end.)
    😅
    Enjoying Sunday is always better when I can share some of it with you and Avery, too. 😊
    Have a pleasant dinner out tonight with Mr. Fox.
    See you next video!
    Cheers!
    Judy 🇨🇦

      I started baking applesauce bread in college, a recipe from a vegetarian cookbook that a friend had given to me. So easy to make, so AMAZING to smell as it is baking. I started to add more spices to the batter to get creative. Of course, cinnamon, but I would also add cloves, ginger, and nutmeg. Quick breads are so yummy and easy to make, so you will enjoy them often! 🦋

    Kevin, what a beautiful area of the country you live in so nice and green and the flowers so beautiful. Me, I live in a desert area of west Texas everything is brown landscape and boring. If we want green grass, it must be watered profusely and only on certain days because of the water restrictions. Same thing with flowers 🌸 🌺 but sadly they take a beating and get scorched during the summer in over 10 degree weather. Thank you for your applesauce bread recipe. It looks easy enough to make so I will bake it today. Greetings from west Texas. 🌞🌻🌵

    I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how very much I look forward to and enjoy all of your videos...Especially the ones that focus on how you prepare for a dinner party or cocktail party. I love the afternoon tea videos, as well. It is fascinating to watch you prepare the food that you intend to serve, arrange the table flowers and set the dining room table...You have a very relaxing way about about you and I find your calm demeanor very engaging. It is refreshing for someone like me, who is "bit older", to listen someone speak slowly and articulately...
    You have such a range of talents and knowledge in so many areas...You are a Master gardener, chef, writer, musician, historian, collector, decorator, a lover of the Arts, a Lover of Animals, a lover of people, traveling and so much more. Thank you for sharing all of these things with us.

    Good Morning from California! I just want to thank you for all your videos. I love cooking, gardening and creating, just as you do. Growing up in England, we were taught how to grow bulbs in junior school. I remember the school selling the bulbs and then we were shown how to plant them. Then after planting the bulbs in pots we would take them home and put them into a dark closet for a few weeks. I would carry my pot into school once a week to show how the bulbs were growing. I liked to grow crocus, then I would plant them in our garden when they were finished blooming.
    In California, I've had success with growing beautiful gladiolus. Dame Edna would be proud of me!

    Hi Kevin, thank you so much for yet another gorgeous, life-enriching visit. Your Apple Sauce Bread is a definite for me to try. Everything about it looks wonderful.
    Like other viewers, I really enjoy travelling with you to your local produce shops. Never a dull moment and such a superb range of really great things.
    Digging produce, on this occasion potatoes, from your own kitchen garden. What could be more satisfying? Those worms were definitely very happy!
    I've never tried forcing Hyacinths but usually fail with daffodils. Now I know where I've probably been going wrong: like the former they will need a spell of cold and dark. Thank you very much for that tip. It's too late now this year to start unless I just wanted to be a week or so ahead of Spring next year.
    Afternoon Tea in your Piano Room is always a delight. Darjeeling is one of my personal favourites too so adding the Apple Sauce Bread to the menu will definitely be happening here in Manchester UK too!
    Bless you for making such fascinating videos so regularly. You are clearly on the go all day, every day...and a book club member too!! What ever next? Keep warm, well and Happy in your your beautiful home. Love and Huge Hugz to You , Mr Fox and your expanding Family, Steve in Manchester UK.

    I simply adore cooking but baking is more my specialty; I derive a great deal of pleasure using recipes that have been passed down for many generations. And on occasion I will create my own recipes to perfect a single dish/ desert

    Hi Kevin,
    I found your hyacinth bulb method interesting. For years I’ve bought hyacinth bulbs about this time and I refrigerate the bulbs until Christmas. Then I take them out wrap them in tissue paper and give them as gifts to friends and family. Over the years I’ve given them in terracotta pots or a hyacinth bulb vase. They’ve always bloomed for whoever I give them to.

    I read "Joy Luck Club" quite a long time ago, but really enjoyed the book immensely--great author. Relaxing to me: Baking (more so than cooking), working in the yard/garden, and having the time to read. Thanks for another outstanding video. 💗

    Kevin, as soon as I saw what you were baking today, I decided to put a loaf in the oven this evening after baking our Sunday dinner. It is in the oven as I write this. We may indulge in a slice later. I love baking and cooking, and find it very therapeutic and relaxing. Have a great week Kevin. Thank you for sharing your Sunday with us💌

    Gardening, baking and farm visiting are all play time for me. They bring me such joy and are very healing to my mind body and soul. I can't wait to try the apple sauce loaf. Thank you for sharing!

    The leeks you harvested will go well with your harvested potatoes in a nice Vichyssoise soup. It is an elegant and tasty soup. Just an idea. :)

    I loved The Joy Luck Club book as well as the movie. Read it many years ago.
    I am enjoying binge watching your videos. Surprised I just discovered this channel! Thank you. I also enjoy beauty in my surroundings and delicious food. 👍👍 (I’m in a book club in Washington State, Zooming with my WA sister and friends from my home in Minnesota).
