I remember my sweet mama getting a whole coconut sometimes for my brother and me to eat. We had to crack it and get it out ourselves ! Sweet memories ! Oh now I’m going to cry ! No one left but me to remember that!😔

[@kimberlyjillett586]

Amen to mistakes❤❤

[@patsyjohnson3963]

Tammy, I was married to a school teacher, coach, athletic director. Assistant principal. You have to be on your toes or they will try and treat you like children. It is just their way 😃. My husband passed 18 months ago and I miss him dearly. Thank you for being you ❤

[@MarthaAdkins-w7e]

Tamy iovey your show. Havw ldr eda lot you havebdlpexmeover not e sa tingto bak❤

[@BernieSutliff]

Wow, you have been married a lot of times! Just kidding! Lol

[@BernieSutliff]

I remember throwing a wonderful pot away back in the 70s. I hated to, but I didn’t think that I could ever bring it back. I guess I was very wrong. 😥

[@hazelbrungard1623]

Put a marble (2) in the bottom of the steamer pan. When water gets low, the marble will start to jump around and you will hear it.

[@bea-zw6bq]

Ms Tammy, I can’t Thank You enough, for taking the time to videotape these cooking demonstrations! You are an excellent and entertaining cook, and I’m enjoying every minute of it. Considering that you are preparing dishes for your family back home, and preparing holiday dishes for your return to St Mary’s, you are still taking time to spend with us! AMAZING 🤩! Love you! Safe travels! Prayers for a wonderful and uneventful reunion with your family! 🙏✝️🥰♥️♥️♥️

[@ohredbrd]

Tammy, you are an inspiration! Cheers to mistakes, cheers to fixing them and cheers to all the energy that it took for you to do allllll that cooking, baking and cleaning up. Well done Missy!! Love ya, God bless and be safe, Shirley.

[@emellacreations]

Thank you so much for these videos! We moved to the northwest away from family and every time I watch you, I feel like I’m back in the south in the kitchen with my Granny. You are truly a blessing! I just ordered all 3 of your cookbooks and I can’t wait to make more of your recipes! I love your happy go with the flow attitude and you always put a smile on my face! God Bless you and your family!

[@quij7ote222]

Ms. Tammy, I absolutely love the mistakes. This is what makes your show worthwhile. We all have missteps in the kitchen. We usually think that makes us sorry cooks and we are tempted to give up and leave the cooking to the more competent. You assure us even the best cooks drop the ball on the rare occasion. Then you show us how to fix the slips. That lets us know there's always a solution so we should keep at it. How wonderful you are.

[@kimhoneycutt6258]

I agree 👍

[@masonhamlin3921]

7 minute frosting, my mom buying a coconut and using a hammer, and Dolly Parton. Haha. All that in one video! ❤ The things we didn't know were still in our memories!

[@susanjane2498]

I have burned my large sauce pan at least 3 times like that! No, I didn't throw away my pan. I soaked it and scrubbed it many times until it came clean. The next time I will try that method with the baking soda and water and put it back on the stove to boil! Thanks for the great tip! Both cakes look just beautiful!

[@melbadaughenbaugh147]

I absolutely love watching you cook and listening to you talk Tammy. You are fun. I’m a Texan born and raised East Texas very very close to the Louisiana State line. I never comment on any site but I just had to let you know how much I appreciate you sharing your family recipes and your happy attitude and tell you how much I really enjoy you. Your just absolutely have a beautiful personality. Thanks for all your recipes.🤗

[@CollardValleyCooks]

Think you!

[@janeydoe1403]

I missed the live broadcast but I just want to pause to say, I haven't seen anyone wash dishes in a bowl since I spent time with my grammy in her kitchen in the old homestead. We pulled water from the well, a bucket at a time, in front of the house for drinking. Whatever came from the tap was for washing. I just really enjoyed seeing you wash those dishes like that, Tammy! Now, onto that coconut cake! .... :)

[@barbaracotham2342]

Happy Holidays to Tammy -Chris and entire Family. Thank you all for all of your cooking videos and ideas. May God continue to bless you all 😊❤😊❤

[@ginaseaton3646]

Yay! It's cake daaaaay! Loved this whole video to death! I'm all about CAKE!

[@bamagirl6403]

I know u r tired girl!!! Everything looks delicious Tammy. U have worked so hard I know all the families will really enjoy everything. HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

[@ShawnWilliams-g5g]

Thanks for the tips

[@dianabarnes8538]

When I burn stuff in my pan,I pour vinegar in it,bring it to a boil,and then dump in soda. There is a chemical reaction and it bubbles way up. It'll take out the burnt stuff. I usually scrub it with a spatula while it boils. I also have heard that bartenders friend works. Haven't tried that.

[@melissaphillips3088]

Hey Tammy , hope you are doing great. You are my cooking teacher for sure. Looking forward to all your holiday cooking shows. Take care have a great weekend.

[@dorenenagy564]

Thank you for putting all this time and effort into your Thanksgiving videos. They were awesome. I'm sorry you burnt your pan, but it will survive. I'm going to see my new granddaughter this weekend for the first time and we will celebrate Thanksgiving with them. I pray for safe travels for you all and us. Stay safe, stay well. See you when we get back!

[@jacey2]

Love to hear you sing while cooking. Both my Nanny & Daddy did that too! Thank you for being the Country Girl that you are 🙃💖

[@susanrobinson408]

Thank you for sharing this day with us! So much fun to watch you and feel like we are right there with you!!

[@cathyhoward5380]

I am so glad you told about the pan I have got rid of so many pans what I burn is boiled eggs

[@lisaroberts7742]

I have had to clean many a pan doing what you did to yours. You look really cute in your outfit. So festive and bright. Pray you made it to Daddy’s house safely. Love ya!!!💝💝💝

[@kimhoneycutt6258]

Hello from Lexington, North Carolina!❤ Continuing to watch you as I decorate my Christmas🎄 I love watching you, you're so real and it's like being in the kitchen with a best friend!🥰❤

[@karenstanislaw8912]

Tammy, just great fun - and *soothing - "hang'n out" with you . The food looks yummy. -Admire your strength, warm sense of humor. Wishing you joy, and much, much thanks.

[@TressasSouthernHomeCooking]

Tammy, I had to split this video up for a couple of days to make sure I finished it. And boy you can bet I was going to finish it! You inspire me with bible study, cooking, and baking and so many other ways. You are such a joy to watch and I don't know how you do it. You are amazing!! Those cakes were some kind of beautiful. I have never made a 4 layer cake before. The most challenging cake I have done was a 3 layer square chocolate cake that was so delicious and we made it for Christmas. My mother always made a homemade German chocolate cake that was so darn good. Thank you so much for making these holiday videos. I am behind because of my back and some other issues but hope to get busy soon. I have a procedure scheduled for Monday and I am praying that this gives some relief. Have a wonderful day sweet and talented lady!------------------Tressa Daigle

[@CollardValleyCooks]

Glad you watched it all!

[@janemoore4319]

I remember bursting open the coconut, grating it. It tastes Heavenly. MY uncle used to prepare the fresh coconut for my aunt. Her coconut cake was beyond description. As yours us, I'm sure.

[@annieunico2157]

I would love a garbage disposal unit, but I’d be dropping and loosing utensils etc down it lol 😂

[@CollardValleyCooks]

Yes I have to watch it

[@debbiealtman4572]

I’ve done the silverware in garbage disposal years ago. Don’t have a garbage disposal now.

[@CShannon1991]

Tell me about these garbage disposals. Almost everyday, some plastic utensils or silverware always get slipped down in there and unfortunately, we found out the hard way when we turned it on. Our silver spoon has been eaten up. And we still have our eaten up stainless steel spoon. 😂

[@Cherrie25]

So you can see your utensil and grab it without having to put your fingers down in the hole.

[@Cherrie25]

The newer diposals are more safe they are not deep

[@brendaevans2952]

Thank you for making my Sunday a better day you show that if anything can go wrong it will but it always a way out.God bless you Tammy we Southern girls got it going on..love you and.Mr.Chris🤗😘💙💜

[@laureencortese8588]

Good morning ☀️ everyone 🙂

[@robingastonia9192]

I know you have a life, and you do have things to do but I sure have missed you this morning. I went on KZbin, and there is a post of the rest of the Thanksgiving dinner. Yay, now I have a day with you Tammy. I enjoy your cooking and Bible studies so much, and thank you so much for all you do for your friends on KZbin. I am smiling since I had a visit from you today. Love you and Chris so much.

[@bea-zw6bq]

Greetings, Ms Robin! Enjoy the presentation!💖

[@buckeye7192]

I thought I would die when I saw you put the potato peelings in the garbage disposer! Wow, that is courage!

[@melindamcguire4473]

Every time I watch you do the coconut cake, my mouth waters! I get almost sick to my stomach wanting that cake!!!!!!! Lol 😂 I have got to make one!!! 🤩😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋

[@CollardValleyCooks]

It's so good!

[@lanitaaltom3224]

Nevermind about my comment about the pecans. I started late on your video so you probably said but I went ahead and read the transcription and found about the use of the pecans! Beautiful job!

[@daisylove785]

I sure have enjoyed watching these Thanksgiving videos yesterday & today. Your cakes are so very beautiful! Thank you for all your tips & your teaching; I've learned alot from watching you. Sending love from Texas❤

[@lyndawark5356]

Add white vinegar to the baking soda....let boil and sit for an hour....it will scrub sparkly clean

[@sylviatolan1814]

I'm so glad Google suggested you. I found out about how easy it is to clean a terribly burned pan.. I actually cooked the soda until it was totally dried up. Abra Ca Dabra MY PAN WAS MIRACULOUSLY CLEANED! Your sink sure is white. Do you spritz it with a cleanser that contains bleach? Another great cleaning tip!

[@dolliemaesone]

I live in a senior area and there is no recycle here .We’re the ones that would actually recycle !lol Tammy life is messy 😁👏🏻

[@christinecrowley2133]

Watching this in 2024 great video. 👍

[@SuAnne-lc5rw]

The cakes are beautiful and look delicious! Wish I was there to help y’all eat some! 😊😊😊I love your videos thank you so very much for sharing Tammy ❤❤❤

[@lindeehopkins6439]

You do NOT talk to much! I love the chatter!! Wowza you cooked a LOT!! I wish I could taste all that!

[@lyndawark5356]

baking soda, couple inches boiling water. AND a 1/4 cup white vinegar. Some people also add one dryer sheet

[@patriciafrancis9134]

Asian, Philippine, and Indian grocers always have fresh frozen coconut. You can get it 24/7 365 along with many other goodies like spices, noodles, and unusual meats or cuts of meats. I also found it in Hispanic grocers under the Goya label so if your store carries Goya products look for their coconut. I'veusedmany brands, from all of the above. They all wok great.

[@glorialautzenhiser5140]

Thus, heavy cream can easily be substituted for recipes that call for evaporated milk. How to Substitute: For 12 ounces of evaporated milk, combine 3 ounces of whole milk and 9 ounces of heavy cream.

[@mavisgrobler8806]

Lovely women...enjoy this and not even got to the recipe part yet.🧡😊She is such a treat. Thanks for this video! Regards from South Africa

[@CarlaMurphy-uh6zf]

I’ve done that and it works great

[@patriciakoester1580]

My momma used to do that too, God bless her ♥️♥️ Patricia

[@JacknJill_1956]

I have learned how to do boiled eggs 3 different times like u told me n I have had no problem getting the shell of. Thank you very much

[@CollardValleyCooks]

Wonderful!

[@debbiereilly900]

I want that mixer just can't afford it right now I'm saving for one. 🤗

[@robinmarie8188]

oh Tammy just beautiful! thank you so much. all the blessing to you and yours this holiday season. Love Robin

[@irmasaud6489]

I have found if you pour about three tablespoons of liquid dishwasher detergent to cover the burnt part, add about 1/2 cup hot water, and let it set overnight, the next morning it usually rinses right off.

[@Lynn88.]

When I burn pots I will boil baking soda and dish soap the use bartenders friend to shine my pots.😊

[@CarlaMurphy-uh6zf]

Try dawn detergent. I tried that when I was out of soda

[@stephanieodonnell8849]

When I burn something in a pot I use a dishwasher pod and boil it on the stove works great

[@helenedibiase8318]

another way of cleaning that pot is to go get some dirt from outside and use it, it really works

[@maryemerick8147]

I like watching folks wash dishes

[@lindakittle8356]

I love how you are so real in your videos. Really enjoy watching you. Thanks for sharing and God bless.

[@rettab6925]

I’m just watching and I am exhausted. Girl, you have lots of energy. I can clean forever but standing so long in one place while cooking tires me. Could be I enjoy watching more than cooking. You’re a jewel.

[@debbiealtman4572]

Love your videos Tammy. We all make mistakes because that’s real life . We get to doing more than one thing multi tasking and we’ll, par for the core, When I was in my 20’s 34 years ago working for a day care they had cheap junkie nickel pans or what ever and stuff always burnt. No matter what could not get pans cleaned. Then few years later Sad to say but years ago when in my early 30’s when I was melting chocolate I scorched a pan. I was learning. It happens. I had bar keepers friend and was using it on the bottom of stainless steel copper pans and put some inside pan and lo and behold it came clean with elbow grease tho. Tho I’m not a coconut fan the cake does look delicious. Like I said things happen.. oh well….❤️😋

[@lanitaaltom3224]

What was the pecans used for....if not on the coconut cake! That would have been even more delicious and beautiful on your cake!

[@rhonda9234]

I sure have enjoyed hanging out in your kitchen today. Both your cakes are gorgeous! Also, thanks for the bonus footage of how to clean aluminum pans. Have to admit, I've thrown away one or two over the years after burning things in them. 😊

[@kimlhelzy]

I add cream of tarter to the baking soda, about a tablespoon. It may take a few times. I like that you show the real stuff. Enjoy your vacation.

[@diannedutton6127]

When I'm cooking I don't have time to recycle either, I just want to clean as I go.

[@robinterry4191]

Happy Thanksgiving Tammy and Chris and to your family I hope you have a blessed rest of the day enjoy yourself stay safe love you all😊

[@deirdredelaughder1060]

Thank you so much for this video beautiful Tammy!♥️ I’m going to make your Red Velvet cake for Thanksgiving! Ps. Love your cake pop on your finger🤣😂🤣

[@mimismumazingcreations]

I put a lot of potato peelings in my garbage disposal and it clogged it up really bad my husband had to take it apart and get the peelings out of the grinding mechanism. I also did same thing with egg shells!

[@kathyscrazylife]

I remember my stepdad fussing about mama clogging up the garbage disposal with potato peels and he had to take it all apart.

[@theresagarcia4823]

Hi Tammy & Chris. Wow Tammy incredible love all these recipes. Great job and thank you. Cant wait to try.

[@dorrisdale6269]

I have cleaned the pans like that by boiling with water and a little vinegar and a few drops of Dawn dish soap. It usually works pretty well, but I think I will try your way next time.

[@barbgardiner5719]

When I get back home, I’d love to meet you! My house is on Piedmont Hwy near Esom hill

[@amberortiz143]

Coke will clean that right on up just let it boil, might have to do once are twice, not Coke Zero 🥰 All looks good tho

[@carolturner7939]

I can’t put lettuce, and potato pealing in disposal..it would end up clogging up!!

[@SuperWoodyboy]

Tammy there are EIGHT cups of powdered sugar in a 2# bag....

[@WendySamples-d9c]

Put salt in it along with water about 2 cups put the pan back on the eye add some baking soda and being it to a boil and boil it for a while . Most of the burnt stuff will get loose.

[@rosegrant1705]

You do a great job. Your are a excellent cook. The red velvet cake looks delicious, but I still make the traditional frosting, which gives you the taste of what red velvet truly taste like. I agree with the seven minute frosting you talked about. I still make the 7minute frosting. I am going to try your way though. It’s all good. Keep the great videos coming.

[@CarlaMurphy-uh6zf]

But do the same squirt the bottom of pan with some dawn.and cover half full with water and simmer

[@cyndydupree6093]

Tammy, You're Great. Im a wee bit over 60 and still have pans that My Grandma cooked with. I've Never used the Soda before but I'm sure I will have the need to try it. And I want to call the layer on top of the Coconut Cream....Butter. Don't know why, that's what comes to mind. Must have been Mamas' word for it. Carry on Tammy.

[@deboraheverett8150]

Awesome red velvet cake 🎂 ♥️♥️♥️

[@reinaldo_mayzck]

❤️❤️❤️

[@racheljackson7397]

Tammy thanks for this information I wish you had one out earlier I really do I've already thrown away 2 pans just recently but I have another I've held on to and I'm glad I did because I am going to do this and I'll let you know how it works for me. Thank you so much for sharing it oh gosh you don't know how much I appreciate it...Again thanks my Dear

[@primrose3524]

Wow what a marathon of deliciousness! Sorry about your sweet potatoes. I hope that your pan eventually came back to life. I knew of this hack, but it did not work for me. After 3 tries with baking soda I had to say good- bye to it. I don’t have a lot of patience, but in almost every other way, I do love stainless for many things I cook. I have to use stainless when I’m having a good day so I can concentrate on the stove.

[@donnacarr3782]

One of my favorite videos is watching you make your coconut cake 🍰

[@brianharris6467]

Wow that looks beautiful

[@Cutiepie_8062]

Love watching you cook! 💙 So glad your doing so much better.

[@ElizabethDandurand]

I love your cooking I'm watching you right now

[@glennmat1963]

Tammy just take baking soda cover bottom and put vinegar in and cover with dish towel inside pan leave a few hours it will just come out

[@rennierad]

Tammy when you burnt your pan and you used baking soda, why didn't you use salt? Thank you for making a great video. 👍

[@bea-zw6bq]

[@apostlepennybarber6788]

Hi Tammy, I ❤ coconut cake, but your's cream of coconut cake. I make coconut cake is a semi-homemade cake just like Chef Sandra Lee on Food Network.

[@lyndalinderman6085]

Do you have a small mobile timer...maybe a couple of them for these all day cooks. When I'm super multi tasking for a holiday, I often have to throw something out and start over again. I could not concentrate on your sauce for the green beans because I was so concerned about your cakes.

[@janetralph6851]

Tammy 🐨Tammy I love watching you cook and listening to you talk

[@dianakoontz3518]

Thanks 😊 It was so much fun!🙋❣️

[@ElizabethDandurand]

You cook real good

[@judycolson6047]

I’ve never heard of a fresh coconut cake. The only ones I had were the ones that were in the bag by Bakers. But that one looks really really good. Thank you for the tip on cleaning the burnt pans. I made a soup once that had milk in it and I had scorched the bottom really bad. It took a while to clean it but I’ll remember this tip if it happens again. Have a fun and safe trip and we’ll see you when you get back with more of mamas cooking!

[@nancykearns5030]

Tammy, if you burn pans,really bad, put baking soda, vinegar, in the pot and let sit over night, it will make the burnt, soft enough up do until all burn is gone ,I scrub my pots and dishes with baking soda, good luck, merry Christmas and happy new years.

[@debbiereilly900]

Garbage disposal is a great invention, 👍

[@naomisolis8441]

Good Friday morning! Many blessings!

This was fun Tammy .. thank u 💗💗I feel like I spent my Friday evening with you 🥰

[@debrasnowkelley7083]

TAMMY, WHEN I BURN SOMETHIBG I SOAK IT WITH SOAPY WATER AND PUT A DRYER SHEET IN IT.....LET SIT ABOUT 2 HOURS AND IT WIPES RIGHT OUT, EVEN MY GLASS CASSEROLE DISHES.

[@trish3721]

You are so much more comfortable and fun when you are alone.
