I just want you to know how much your videos mean to me. My father died in September and I’ve been in a funk since then (winter does not help either). Watching your videos shows me that there is beauty and kindness in the world. You have a lovely calming effect on my nerves AND I learn great things from you as well. Wanted you to know how much power your videos have and I hope you’ll continue for years to come!

My condolences to you. May your father's memory be for a blessing. My father has been gone more than 30 years and I still miss him every day. But I've also found that I still feel him very close to me. You can tap into the energy of their love even if they're not physically with you. Love and peace to you and your family. 💞

Ah yes, another elegant culinary experience from Kevin! I love the way your kitty enjoys the scene, too. Cheers!

Me and my daughter randomly found this page the other night and used it as a wind down video. Tonight we got a couple of ingredients to make some of your recipes. Quickly becoming one of my favorite creators.

Flowers are pretty, and I like the style of the customized home bar. Makes it seem like you're in a cocktail lounge. Appetizers look great!

Thank you for this formula for a very elegant but simple cocktail party. The nibbles look delicious! Good thing you tasted the sauce for the meatballs and corrected the issue before serving to your guests. Your flower arrangement is beautiful! 🙏❤️

Your videos are so relaxing. The art of entertaining is so rare these days. Your home is beautiful.

I so look forward to your videos - when I’m notified a new one has come out, I “save” it for the end of day. It’s always such a special way to end my day. You never fail to inspire me and remind me that there is still grace and elegance in our world. Thank you!

I love taking rides with you to the shops and markets and enjoy the road trips while listening to soothing music. Please identify the music playing in the background of today's video as it is my favorite. Thanks for the escape from everyday life for a few minutes and for the wonderful and easy recipes and gardening tips you provide on your videos.

Your videos are so relaxing and calming to watch and I love your home, your garden, your food ideas all of it!! Well done!

My parents had big cocktail parties all throughout the 70’s, and cocktail meatballs were a staple. The sauce my mother used was: 1 jar (10oz) chili sauce, 1 jar (12 ounce) grape jelly, 1 t lemon juice, and 2t brown sugar. The grape jelly makes all the differences! But thank you for the tip of baking soda when heavy-handed with the vinegar! That is a great tip! That silver-plated ice bucket is wonderful, but such a fancy bucket requires clear ice cubes! Cheers!

I just loved every scenery what Keven showing in his videos ❗️it’s a beautiful, gentle, peaceful and simple but gorgeous❗️

I could make a whole meal of appetizers! I love a plethora of little options. Pesto is one of my favorites. I toast my crostini then put a layer of ricotta and top it with pesto and a little sun dried tomato. Also I will try the meatballs , since I love them. And being able to make a lot and freeze some for meatball subs later is a big plus.

You showed up ony feed so I thought I'd stop in. Thank you Your home and grounds are ever so pleasant. Pleasant. There's just not enough of that anymore. I appreciate you. I'll come back by again soon. 🙂 🙏

I truly love the snippets of your pets, so darn cute! More please!

The yellow filler flower is Ginestra, it has a wonderful scent.

I didnt realize how easy it is to make cheese straws. Love you and your animal's.

I love your selection of appetizers! I’m pretty new to your channel, but so enjoy your cooking choices. I viewed the French chicken dish video where you cooked everything in one pot with white wine with leek, carrots and celery. Simple but elegant. I for one would like to see more French dishes. Thank you! Very nice presentation!

The appetizers are so bright and look delish for these cold evenings. I am definitely trying the cheese straws recipe. So easy and they look rustic and bright!!! ❤

These are absolutely perfect appetizers to serve with cocktails! I remember when you made these bread straws more than 6 years ago and that is when I bought the pastry cloth. Both are great additions to my cooking repertoire. Thank you Kevin.

I think the yellow flowers are broom...your arrangement is lovely! Wish we could all come over for a cocktail and nibble 😋

Roll as directed, egg wash and follow baking directions. You could also top them with slivered almonds. You are often my tranquility!

Thank you, Kevin for another lovely time shared with you.❤

The yellow filler stems look like the beautiful Forsythia! You can plant a bush of it in your own garden! 💛

Thank you, Kevin, for another delightful evening! We appreciate being able to spend time with you! I made your cookies with chocolate chips & orange today! Caught myself nodding with enjoyment!! They were wonderful!

Kevin, I really love helping you with this one 😂❤️🥂xx

Forsythia blooms around the same time as tulips, so that would make sense. Million dollar smile at 15:44 while holding nice bouquet cracks me up. Thx for the baking soda tip. Also, I like those square plates.

The flowers are Forsythia it’s part of the olive family always wash your hands after handling as the leaves and flowers are slightly poisonous but you would need to eat a huge a out for them to affect you.

This was really a neat video! I enjoyed, learned, and gained confidence from it also. I have a darling bar cart and never really knew what to do with it or if it was right. You taught me that I didn't need a who lot of everything to complete a bar. You made it so simple and inviting. I also cannot wait to try your delicious looking recipes. You make it so easy to host anything at home. Believe me, I'm taking lessons from you! Thank you so much!

You are another reason I look forward to Friday. Such a sweet cocktail party. Radish and pesto. Yum❤

Thanks Kevin, I'll have a Tom Collins 😊. Oh my takes me back to the good ole days.

Wonderful house. Great life and a perfect gentleman!

Who doesn't enjoy nice hot meatballs with cold salads such as pasta, potato, or even coleslaw? I've enjoyed making goodness knows how many versions of meatballs in my time. Homemade pesto would be nice, as the retail variety has never sat well with me. Finally, the reflection of the lighting you use was quite something to see. I didn't realize how studio-like your kitchen has become for filming these episodes.

I have Tom Collins glasses in glass and polycarbonate since we live on the water nice to have non breakable. My favorite Herbs de Provence is, Victoria Taylor’s, ABSOLUTELY STUNNING FLAVOR! Cheese stick dough is best refrigerated over night before baking. Much flakier and crisper.

Great video Kevin. I don't eat beef so these turkey meatballs are a good idea. I'll have to try the baking soda hack as well. Your table looks very elegant. You inspire me to make things a little bit nicer in my home.

Hi Kevin! Glad to see you today. I order many of your items and am never disappointed

I think a cheese platter and some mixed marinated olives would complement your appetizers. I LOVE to serve appetizers more than dinner. They’re more casual and playful. Good work!

Hi Dear Kevin. 🍜Nice to see you. 🍏I get many of your tools for a charming home.🫕🍲

Hi Kevin, That was absolutely delightful.

I haven’t been so pleasantly amused by a channel in a while.

Kevin, a mini bar fridge beside your table would be perfect. Then you could have the tonic and other mixers handy.
