In this crazy world of vicious gossips and on line hatred, your channel brings peace and beauty to the everyday life. Thank you for creating this beautiful world for us.

Hello from Alberta here too!

When you mentioned taking afternoon tea in the parlour I was immediately reminded of my grandmother. Long gone, but fondly remembered.

How absolutely lovely to 'share' your afternoon tea with your friends (meaning all of your viewers, etc). I so enjoyed this video with you. Right now, I'm in hospital recovering from abdominal surgery. For months, I've not been able to eat ANY food. So, I have to live through the eyes and taste buds of those, such as yourself, who can entertain me with all of the delicious things you make. And your ever pleasant personality. I 'will' be able to return to eating real food, once recovered, and believe me, I'll go home with plans to make many of your decadent recipes! You give me so much to look forward to! Thank you, Kevin, for all that you do. Maybe you, being of humble nature, don't realize how much it means to many people, who get so much pleasure from your videos! Thank you, again! Cheers, from Judy (Ontario, Canada).

Well hello Kevin Lee. Thank you for inviting us in for an afternoon tea. Everything is a treat for the eyes. The recipe is much appreciated. The cardamom, ginger, and pepper has me in the mood for some masala chai. The very first day of fall in Ohio close to Lake Erie it went from 90 f for a high to highs in the low 60's the next day. This morning there was a bit of frost. The store you went to is an amazing place. I've never seen cranberries with sugar and pectin in a jar before (except for jelly & jam). I will be on the hunt for that. I wanted to taste everything in your presentation. My favorite color is blue (beautiful china). Nice touch lighting the fireplace. This video is perfection.

My mouth is watering from your cranberry, Turkey tea sandwiches.

Oh my my my! I truly enjoyed this video and its accompanying menu suggestions and the gingersnap recipe. I have one of the latter that I’ve used for decades but am interested to give yours a try! As far as seasons, I, too, love autumn. Besides the beautiful colors, crisp air, and bounty, I so enjoy its fragrances, particularly that of fallen leaves and the first wood smoke that makes its way to me when I’m outside. Were that I still had a fireplace!

I add a bit of dry curry powder to my egg salad and it’s delicious, my mother used to make this for us when we were children and l am now in my sixties and everyone now asks me to bring these sandwiches to social gatherings and work events. We are just going into spring here in Australia and getting some wonderful sunny spring days after a very wet winter.

Loved this! It was no nice to see your parlor, beautiful! And I also love autumn, my favorite season. I will give your gingersnap cookie recipe a try!

Before I started watching your videos, I never knew why you buttered the bread for tea sandwiches. So thanks for helping this girl out with new knowledge.

Love your recipes and video’s and thank you for mentioning the grams and Celsius which makes it even easier. 👍🏻🌷

That's very similar to how I entertain. You're one of the very few people who seem to be showing the elegance of older days. Since I'm older, that's how I feel most comfortable. Thank You.

I love ginger snap cookies.

I find it incredible considerate that you're 'translating' to grammes for us, the Europeans - and being very accurate in your translations 🙂 You surely does your preparatory work - thank you !!

I just know you are devastated about QE’s passing. I know I am. I just finding your channel so Zen! Thank you!!!

I love autumn too. We've had a long, hot, brutal summer where I live, so I'm enjoying the change of weather. It's already dipping down in to the 40s at night. Only a few weeks ago it was 110. 😄 During the fall and winter I usually switch from coffee to hot tea occasionally. Last week I picked up a big box of Barry's Gold Blend Tea, imported from Ireland. It's one of my favorite teas for this time of year.

I like autumn the best, too! (Can't believe how quickly the summer went by). I prefer gingersnaps soft and hubby likes them crisp, so these would be the perfect compromise. Your home looks lovely, as usual.

I know some people don't like tea bag tea, but Constant Comment is good stuff for fall & winter. There is also a loose tea called Iron Goddess of Mercy! Those gingersnaps would make great sandwich cookies with a cream cheese filling!! Or apple butter filling!! (Ooh, I'm hungry!)

What a beautiful video. Thank you for the "screamingly-delicious" gingersnap tea! You've started Autumn so beautifully.

I love Autumn, but the other 3 seasons as well. This was an enjoyable video. Thank you for it.

OMG!! Kevin you have taken me back to my childhood! So cosy with your warm, glowing, roaring open fire! All my relatives of that era have passed, but you have brought them back to life again as I watched you preparing this delicious afternoon, Autumn Tea. I remember making sandwiches and preparing other delights, like Trifle, Jelly, savoury nibbles etc. It was great fun as a child. It's so healing watching you and being in your company 💞! I am watching from across the pond where we are having 'monsoon' rain storms this Autumn. I also have had a leaking roof, which started again in September. It has taken months to get it sorted through the Housing Association. So you have also provided me with solace through the storms!. I enjoyed your overnight trip to Manchester as well with 'Mr Fox'. It's great to travel with you and view your part of the world! I keep fit like you every day, but prefer cycling on a flat level or downhill, as I have arthritic knee injuries. I also swim in the sea in a wetsuit once a week, as I find it helps the Fibromyalgia. Some of us are still living 'cautiously', due to the risk of catching Covid and one can sometimes feel a bit isolated in this stressful world. I have my Faith, Yoga Meditation and learning new things, such as your fun and interesting cookery demonstrations. So I think the Internet has had some positive advantages in that we can connect so easily and 'magically' with others around the Globe including your warm and delightful self Kevin. So thank you so much 💕😌 for your very interesting videos and your enjoyable and relaxing company 😊 X Mary

I would love to hear more about where your originally from and how it was that you came to live in Detroit. You're not very far from me. I have always wanted to visit France, but I do not speak French so might feel out of place there.

Hello Kevin and Thank You for the lovely invite to take tea with you. I am now a major advocate of afternoon tea and love making tea sandwiches. I made your recipe for Pain Mie and it is the best for the sandwiches. Beautiful crumb and flavour. Yesterday was my Friday Tea Day with some neighbours. In addition to the sandwiches (egg and relish - triangles, tuna and sweet mustard mayo with celery - small squares, and cream cheese with chèvre, roasted red pepper and black olive - rolled), we enjoyed mini toasted-almond frosted carrot cakes. It was all delicious and the 'new' bread drew enthusiastic comments. I knew the minute you presented these spice cookies that I will be making quite a few very soon to give as Thanksgiving 'from my kitchen to your's' gifts. The addition of cardamom is really different and will add mystery to the flavour. I think I'll tuck a few bags of cardamom tea in with the gift pack. Thank You for adding flavour and spice and an appreciation for good and simple foods, to my life. I wish you and Mr. Fox an enjoyable Fall (the best season !) and a very Happy Thanksgiving. Here in Canada, ours will be next weekend. Can't wait. I have white pumpkins to play with this week and hopefully will turn them into satiny tarts for our special Turkey meal. This Thanksgiving, I give special thanks to you for the special kindness, thoughts, love, time, expense and effort you generously gift year after year, to your A Garden for the House community. Thank You so much. XO❤XO❤XO❤XO❤
