I just can’t seem to get enough of your channel and your lovely personality. Your a straight shooter lady and we need more people like you in this country to show the world how lovely the American People can be. Your generosity to others is a breath of fresh air. Thanks so much for your true beauty

Thanks for keeping me company while I clean and organize my kitchen 😊 What a lucky family to have someone who puts such love and attention into their food. Family is everything!

This reminds me of cooking as I was growing up. There were 10 kids in my family so every day was a big cooking day. We raised our own chickens, pigs and beef. Milked cows, made butter and always had a huge garden and canned a lot. We had 2 large freezers. One for all the meat and the other for freezer meals. Always made bread and biscuits every other day. Big Mamma cooking is the best.

Like my Mom used to tell us, My Grandma used to say, "All hands on deck *** East Pine Street" (Ironwood). She only held me. 🙂 Don't forget to make a kids table! That was Thanksgiving at Dad's side (Uncle's). We sat with our cousins at the kids table. I was much younger. It's all good we wanted to go play, and get in trouble anyway. 😇

Love to listen to you while you cook, look the way you run your kitchen, great job!😊

My mothers name is Renee, she loved to cook and bake. I love your channel for obvious reasons.Thank you for posting.

I feel like I am in your kitchen sipping on coffee keeping you company. I love your down to earth cooking. I never thought about ising my old potato masher for breaking up hamburger! Now I don't need to buy one of those gadgets and the masher looks to work better!

When I make the Pumpkin Crunch Cake I top mine with a Spice Cake Instead of using the yellow mix. The spices in the spice cake go so well with the pumpkin pie spice to give it so much added flavor. I like to add chopped pecans to ours too but I add then half way thru the cooking time. Sometimes they get too brown and it makes them bitter tasting. For that reason I just wait awhile to add them to the top.

I just feel right at home watching your videos. Thank you for inviting all of us into your home and sharing your recipes and tips with us. I grab a cup of coffee and feel like I'm right there visiting. That's how warm and cozy you make one feel. Bless you and your family!

There is a lot of love going on in your home. How wonderful. We have children in Texas, Tennessee and Indiana--how I cherish the moments when we all get to be together.

Thank you for the segment on how to clean, maybe those who never have been taught will see this video, keeping things clean is good. Not having pet hair is a breath of fresh air.

I've missed you miss renee its good to see you again xx

I grew up with hamburger gravy. We would make baking powder biscuits with it like grandma made. One of my all time comfort foods. We also canned our green beans. I'm like you and clean as I go.

Good ol biscuits and gravy...yummy! I have made that pumpkin crunch cake before and it was delicious. I always make my own buttermilk but I use vinegar, just cause I never have lomon juice. I love your refrigerator...its such a great size.

Love this pumpkin cake recipe! I wonder if I could do the same with apples etc. Yum I can smell it from here!

I do love your channel. You cook the way I do but in larger amounts.

Love that gravy, sure will feed a crowd with no complaints. Always make mine with flour. Your pumpkin Crunch Cake looked divine.

We call that a Pumpkin Surprise. But I have always just made the pie recipe with the mix and butter on top. I started making it probably 40 years ago. Still love it.

Awesome video. Dinner looks delicious. I am making that dinner this Sunday. Thanks for sharing

Looks so delicious Renee yummy,I’m going to make those biscuits for supper tonight ❤

Thanks for having me over (it felt like it!). You’re a beautiful gem!

That's nearly the same biscuit recipe i use, except my recipe calls for a scant teaspoon of baking soda. I made a pot of beef stew a couple of days ago, and made biscuits to go with it.

Like with your butter wrapper; that's like the Bruschetta cheese at work, there's always film of wrapper on the block. then you slice it and it's in there. I care to remove it. Observation.

Love your videos love watching you cook. I cook like you do my husband is a meat and potato eater and casseroles

Love watching your videos. Thax for sharing.

Much love from Arkansas. I love your videos. Thank you...

The mess made is the same rather you make a single serving or ten servings, so you may as well make loads while you’re cooking and have freezer meals for days you don’t feel like being in the kitchen. Also, I’ve always been of the opinion food made in large portions just tastes better for some reason, but that’s probably due to doing cooking for crowds of over 100 with my mom since that food always turned out great. The other times I feel food tastes better is when it is made by someone else and when it is prepared and eaten outdoors-did a lot of camping growing up and that was some of the best food I’ve ever eaten

I want to try that soon.

I love your videos so much you are so sweet and calming. One thing though I have watched many of your videos and I really wish you could plate and taste test your food. Tell us what this gravy tastes like I have never heard of hamburger gravy but it sounds like something I would make. At the beginning of your video you said you would cut your cake so we could see out if turns out but I think you forgot. I would have loved to see how that cake turned out. Just like your bread making bread intimidates me I know it sounds crazy I'm just not good at it. But watching your videos makes be want to try again. When you take your bread out of the oven I would really like to see how it turns out (crumb) This is in no way criticizing you. I adore you. Just as a viewer these are things I look for when watching cooking videos.

We speak the same language but goodness there is a big difference! Minced beef (ground beef) cooked in a gravy sauce is called mince in the U.K. Is there a difference between what you call ground beef and hamburger mix? Is it seasoned? I’ve never seen milk added to beef in that way, always be gravy / stock over here with Worcestershire ( pronounced war-ster) sauce and the optional oxo cubes!

@LittleVillageHomestead

There are different fat to meat ratios in our ground beef/hamburger meat, but it’s all the same animal essentially. Being American, I stopped attempting to pronounce Worcestershire long ago and went with the “wer-ster” pronunciation after watching UK cooking shows and sitcoms. You speak English, we have adapted/slaughtered English into what can only be called “American” since even within our borders it’s spoken differently dependent on where you are.

Now I know why I like you so much! I am a retired LTD myself!

Do you taste any lemon flavor in the butter milk? What is the ratio?

This was nice seeing you preparing and getting ready to enjoy your meal! Everything turned out great!Thanks Renea!

You don’t have a dishwasher? You really have to do it all from scratch.
