Tipper, thank you. I'm not a cook or a gardener, but watching you prepare the peppers for pickling and making the cake and hearing your voices, soothes me. I can tell that you love growing food and preparing it for your family, as well as your Church family. I love how Cori and katey(?) help you so much. I also thank Cori for her bible study teaching. I am older than all of you, except Granny maybe, and I resisted watching it because of pride. She drew the humility out of me as I listened to her sincerity and love of the Word of God. She had something to teach this old dog. I love you all.

[@keeptrying5962]

I think that is so good and encouraging of you to say. Very nice.

[@rita1259-y5c]

❤❤❤

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you for the kindness! So glad you enjoy what we do.

[@carblarson8868]

Her voice is the best.

[@jodiely7983]

Aww the final scene with Katie and Korie doing a head hug was precious!

[@benitastevens612]

Really enjoyed the church cooking.

[@brendaschenck859]

I enjoyed watching you cook & watching Corie scurrying around the kitchen, helping keep things cleared away, I felt like I was sitting there in your kitchen watching ❤❤

[@jaymiedeville2808]

I love chicken and dumplings!!! My favorite food!!

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

So good!

[@dianneC1979]

Oh the joy of watching ya'll cook.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

😀 So glad you enjoyed it!

[@NanetteAycock-pq4tx]

the 'disarray' in your kitchen as you called it, is a beautiful sight🙂

[@roadtriplover.]

great bumper sticker “No bean left behind” 🤣😅😂😁

[@lainyrudloff9015]

The wonderful smells coming out of the kitchen is like a set of arms giving a hug.

[@benitastevens612]

Wow that would be a good cake. I will look that recipe up. Love how you list the recipe for us.

[@mags102755]

As I've said before, I love to watch you cook Tipper. Corie is such a great assistant. My daughter cooks for me now, and it's so nice. Lots of love.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thanks so much 😀

[@cordiscoscorner]

"No bean left behind" LOL. Nice one Corie.

[@Needlewich]

Tipper, you are the busiest and hardest worker!!! All that great food you and Corie cooked! Amazing!! God bless and love to y’all! 💕🤗🙏🏻

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thanks so much 😀

[@rhondabutler4172]

I have to always wear an apron unless I plan on wearing whatever I’m cooking. 😂. I like to cook for others as well, especially for church. I made a pumpkin cake for my ladies this morning and they were tickled to pieces. Since I made up the recipe, none of them has ever had it. As usual, I made sure to bring a copy of the recipe to share with them.

[@livvyweimar7362]

Ah, yes. Corrie understands what it is to be a cooker. You prepare all the delights and you just watch everyone have a better day because you cooked. Great job Tipper, she understands what a simple pleasure food can be.

[@lornahuddleston1453]

🌾👩🏻‍🌾💎🌾Your being delighted with the jewel colors of the beans makes me think of Edna Ferber's story called, "So Big". She talked about the green and purple cabbages looking like emeralds and rubies growing in the field. That was a really nice movie with Jane Wyman and Sterling Hayden from @1950-ish. 😊

[@gaildavis710]

Tipper, continue prayers for little man, they had to take his foot!! At least with being 2 months old, he won't remember! Our hearts are broken!!!!!

[@gkskforever6909]

So sorry, prayers

[@joycewilson3787]

Lifting you up to the throne room now.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

I'm so sorry. I will continue to pray for the sweet boy.

[@tcperry66]

Prayers

Praying for little man & your family. Grammy from Texas

[@benitastevens612]

Enjoyed it all again. Thank you!

[@TeressaJ1960]

My mother wouldn't even let us come in the kitchen while she cooked. She did, however, pacify my sister and I by giving us a small bit of biscuit dough to play with while she cooked. Later, when we were old enough, about 12, I got to help with simple things like peeling potatoes or grating cheese. She was also very generous when it came to washing dishes. She 'let' us wash all we wanted. 😆 I love to cook now but it's only me at home so I don't cook often, mostly on birthdays and holidays. I love how close you and Katie and Corie are.

[@RhondaRobinson-u3z]

Hey Tipper and Family! I finally got to make your cornbread! I currently do not own an iron skillet so I had to wait awhile to make it. O my goodness that was some of the best cornbread I have ever made or eaten! It made my Dad's birthday extra special. Next time I will have to make a double batch because everybody gobbled it up : ) Thank you so much for writing that cookbook with Jim Casada and for the sweet personal note you wrote for Dad in his copy. It made his 86th birthday one to remember. Our family wishes your family (including your fans out there) a gentle holiday season. Love you!

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Wonderful 😀

[@Jean-ko4xv]

I'm a day late, busy Girls you are. Sunday sounds great. Hope the Guys have good luck hunting.God Bless. Jean 💛&🙏🙏 for Granny.

[@lisamaestas6642]

What a wonderful video, Tipper! Thanks, as always for letting us join you in your kitchen, especially on such a busy day. As I watched I got out my copy of your cookbook to mark the recipes for the cake and the chicken and dumplings ~ I will be trying both! I am always reminded of being in the kitchen with my mom and my grandmas when you cook with the girls. You continue to bring me a sense of peace in this frightening world ~ watching you and your family is a blessing. Thank you again.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

So glad you enjoyed it!!

[@CWTS47DAB]

The four or five times it gets real cold in Florida, we have chicken & dumplings.

[@kimnichols1458]

I used to say cooker too as a little girl such fond memories and again thank you!😊❤

[@MelissaMounts]

I love all your videos 😊

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

😀 Thank you!

[@christyjohnson6967]

What a full day. As my sweet Grandmother used to say I bet it smelled “larapin” in your kitchen. Thanks for bringing us along. ♥️

[@smc130]

My grandmother said the same thing!

[@susanbeal3253]

I saw a quote somewhere recently that said something like you can have a spotless kitchen or homemade meals but not both at the same time 😂😂 I identified with that so much! My counter tops are currently covered with apples and the dehydrator running non stop, as well as kitchen tools and bowls that never get put away where they go because as soon as they get cleaned I’m using them for something else! Loved watching y’all cook, always something good going on in Tipper’s kitchen! ❤

[@Alex-cb2gf]

I vote for the big fluffy ones. I make them with Bisquick. Yum!

[@lindamcteer]

I sprinkle a small amount of cornmeal in the hot skillet right before I pour in the cornbread batter. It makes the crust even more crispy and delicious. Great video.

[@kimb6893]

That’s a great idea!

[@anderander5662]

And I think it helps it not stick

[@jacquelineraines2074]

I have to tell you my hot pepper story. When I lived in Denver, I made chili for a chili cook off at work so I was chopping up hot peppers to throw in the pot. My eyes began to water so I put my finger up to my eye without thinking! I ran to the bathroom to rinse out the painful oil. I wore contacts so I had to get the contact out and put it in cleaner. Needless to say, the contact was a goner. In those days I had to get new ones from the doctor. Yes, anything hot or a lot of onions involved, I use plastic gloves!

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Oh goodness!

[@bessieeanes4377]

It touches my heart to see the love that is your home Tipper, I always tell my kids I love you more

[@J_LOVES_ME]

I just love your family, and I can see God's love radiating in every one of you. 💗

[@carmarasmussen8118]

Oh those beautiful squash in that wooden bowl just screams Autumn and Harvest time. 🥮🍎🥔🌽🌶🫑🧅🍁🍂

[@barbarasue7191]

It must have been all delicious. Even if it were awful; your connection with your family is worthy to watch. God continue to bless is my prayer.

[@poppyredmustang]

Love chicken and dumplings!!❤❤

[@christinecrowley7132]

Yes the cooker makes everyone happy, and get better with time.

[@christinej2358]

Y’all had a really busy two days of food prep and cooking. That cake looked so delicious! Like Granny , my mom let me cook when I was young too and I still love to prepare, cook and bake. I find cooking very enjoyable and relaxing. I agree good food makes people happy and it makes me happy to see those I cook for enjoy what I’ve made. It’s one of my blessings to serve others with meals. I feel the same about my sewing. When I make a quilt for someone, there is no greater reward to hear them go on about it. I don’t make fancy quilts, and they are not even close to perfect, but when they turn out well and others love them, it blesses my heart beyond words.

[@benitastevens612]

Love, love the peppers!

[@timtharp835]

I love you ladies. Real people real food.

[@kennethboydsr3966]

I love black walnuts in a cake they taste soooo good my wife used to make a cake just like that I loved it missed those days love your shows thanks for sharing .🌺

[@Alicesgardenau]

I enjoyed watching Corie in the kitchen with you. It reminded me of me and my mum ❤️

[@junelovvorn3221]

I totally enjoyed this video. It seemed like i was right there with you and sweet Corie. She is such a sweetheart. Keep up the good work. My Mother was a Big Cooker!!! She cooked cornbread and biscuits everyday of her life for 50± years. I miss her so much.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you so much!

[@joanneisser5320]

I love watching you cook. I wasn't allowed to cook when I was younger. I love to cook now and bake too. Keep on cooking.I love those recipes

[@sutdave1]

Another great video! I have quite a bit of knowledge on the black walnuts, my dad and some of the neighbors did a lot with them. Learning techniques to hull them and crack them and then all the different uses. The neighbors made handmade white oak baskets and would make stain from the walnut hulls for their baskets. Last year we were able to get some walnuts and I cracked them and put a bunch away in the freezer I am still using them for recipes such as yours they really add a good flavor to cakes and cookies. I know i ramble a lot in my comments (brain fog due to heart failure) but i truely enjoy the traditional things that you share and i fear a lot of this knowledge will be lost in the future generations.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Love your comments-thank you for watching!

[@benitastevens612]

I am going to bake this cake!

[@branditiller9923]

Tipper, I helped my mother in the kitchen when I was about 15. We made a mess of jalapeño poppers for a get together. I must have deveined close to 30 peppers. My hands throbbed for about 24 hours. I learned to wear gloves too. 🧤

[@janefreda7034]

I totally agree, cooking for others is a great joy in life. Loved this episode. I felt like I was in your kitchen.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Glad you enjoyed it! 😀

[@bethmichaud3209]

Tipper's food excellence and my supper made a perfectly satisfying evening here at my table. So glad to see loveable kitchen helper right at hand!💛

[@marthawalton8370]

The green and white squash looks like a goose listening to you!!

[@diannedutton6127]

I'm 81yrs old and I still cook everyday. I love food. I try to make my food taste like my Mama's, she was a great cook. My sister does the same.❤

[@KathysTube]

I like any kind of dumplin as long as it's homemade! Thanks Tipper 🎃👍

[@keeptrying5962]

So true about the peppers, Tipper! I lived & learned one time slicing some jalapeños up for basic nachos. My hands were tingling and stinging. Now I use gloves, just as you did here. All that is beautiful bounty in your kitchen. I bet the dinner at church was delicious and plentiful. THANK YOU Tipper, as always! 🙌🏼 💞

[@homesteadingpastor]

I love chicken n dumplings to. Yep, us church folk love to eat & yes cooking definitely makes people happy. Lol Thanks for sharing.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you Pastor Lon 😀

[@rhondasmith1901]

Reminds me of shelling these beans for fun on Saturday nights and seeing who could find the prettiest bean. Eating homemade fudge or cinnamon rolls. Oh for the fun we had as children before t.v

[@gedaivy7279]

Your display looks colorful, and beautiful. Chicken and dumplings, Yum !

[@PreachermanPiper]

I really like hot peppers, super hot peppers. Love to watch you kitchen duties and your cooking. God bless you and yours.

[@aimeecollier1631]

Enjoyed watching your video and talking about chicken n dumplings and that wonderful looking cake

[@Lisa-ne5pd]

I was working at a independent living facility. I had made cornbread, sweat cornbread. And one of the ladies that lived there said to me if I wanted cake I would have asked for cake. It's been so many years ago but everytime I make cornbread I remember that lady. But I still make sweet cornbread. 🙏❣

[@glendagai]

Love to see your beautiful working kitchen. It is such a beautiful room for you to work in. Thank you so much for this video!

[@ShelbyBunten]

I enjoyed your video I so glad you girls had a good girls night and olive got spoiled too the church people will love your food and cories ❤️all of you Shelby

[@RobertDellaGreen]

I appreciate your videos so much. My husband and I are just now researching into starting to garden, and subsequently, canning. I've learned the hard way to never trust anyone else's heat scale when it comes to spice. "They ain't hot" almost always means they certainly are most definitely HOT! 🌶🤣

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

😊 thank you

[@sherylpruitt9785]

My goodness! You’re an energetic busy 🐝, Tipper! What is your secret? Geritol? 😉 Now I’m hungry! Great video! 🤗

[@blindaedwards9528]

Tipper, you are inspiring...thank you Corie for always being there helping your momma❤❤❤

[@Jab6284]

Your channel is a calming activity for me. It makes me forget ,for the moment , the uneasy place the world can be. Thank you all for that. I got my cookbook today .it is an interesting read aside from the cooking parts. It is also a beautiful book.!

[@RhondaRobinson-u3z]

I often play Celebrating Appalachia videos at bedtime, especially Tipper reading from a book. It helps with my anxiety.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you so much 😀

[@myrongriffis8017]

Awwww, this video was precious🥰. Loved seeing you all bond together over preparing foods you love! What wonderful memories you are making. I have precious memories of been in the kitchen with my sweet momma and Mamaw watching them cook and then helping them as well. I am carrying on that tradition with my sweet grandchildren💗🥰. Enjoyed seeing the love and affection you have for one another. What a blessing! God bless you all🙏🏻. Hope Matt & Austin have a successful hunt🦌.

[@christyhart1784]

It is so sweet, to see your girls in the kitchen with you Tipper, blessings upon you each one.

[@cheifcreekturtle]

the pattern on cory's sweater is so beautiful!

[@dianeenders9804]

Oh what a fun filled day !!! I love that time spent with the girls and cooking blessings ❤️🙏❤️

[@annierambo5606]

So enjoyable watching you and the girls cooking together. God bless y'all. ❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤

[@likelynicole]

I love that you left the blurry part in, I love so many things about each video y’all put up, but the imperfections are what make each video so special ❤ I love that in a world of perfectionism I can come here and feel at home.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you so much!

[@lindamcgee3651]

Blessed! 🤗🙏💕

[@mygrammieis]

You inspire us all-Stay Well and Safe Journeys 🙏🏻🤲

[@mishalea]

I love that you had to run over to Granny's to visit with loved ones. I miss having family so close by. The cake looked like a winner for sure! I love any dessert w coconut! We don't have church dinners as much as we used to, miss them also. God bless.😊🧡🍂

[@aprilcarmen2492]

Mmm Church Potluck. I love to cook for Church and eat with my Church family. I think that I will make chicken and dumplings for Sunday dinner tomorrow.

[@susandavis1205]

Sounds delicious. Hard worker

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you 😀

[@FayeWalker-of1iy]

A friend of mine gave me some jalapeño peppers along with some plastic gloves!! Having never cut these peppers, I did not realize the gift of gloves. I sat up all night with my hands soaking in a bowl of ice water!! Learned a lesson the hard way.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Oh no! I’ve had that happen too and its no fun.

[@bunk822]

As always sounds good 👍

[@bb-bu9vt]

This was so wonderful. I am glad you left in the "blurry" part. That cake looks amazing.

[@brendaks2994]

I want to try your cake it looks sooo delicious ❤ That Corie is so granny couldn’t stop eating that cake.. i love watching granny when she made something and keep eating it. Praying for healing for her❤❤

[@myliajennings3354]

Youns are just the sweetest! I love watching you and your girl's channels! Your morals and values along with your cooking is very similar to what I was brought up with. I am very blessed to have a Momma that is the best cooker and has handed down her recipies to me, I cherish them with all my heart along with the memories that was made when eating her food. Keep sharing, we need more of this on KZbin!

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you so much!

[@leighflorkevich9916]

The love you have for one another gives me such a peaceful feeling. ❤

[@lindareinking5326]

Loved the video. You are such hard workers. Love the girls and Olive too ! Prayer's for Granny ❤❤❤

[@BlessingsfromNorthIdaho]

Boy, you had a busy day in the kitchen. I make what you call chicken and dumplings but we call them chicken and noodles. They would be what you call slicks. That’s how my husband likes them. Myself, I love the fluffy dumplings, which we call, dumplings, lol. There are three places I enjoy being, my garden, in my sewing room, and in my kitchen. All activities that women have done throughout the ages and so comforting to me, knowing the women in my family have done the same things.❤. TeresaSue.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Love that 😀

[@collins5038]

The blurry part was not bad at all! Another great video. Thank you.

[@mariansmith7694]

I love chicken & dumplin's. The pickled beats sound good too. Everything sounds good.

[@tracysmith9546]

Thank you for these videos and putting out content consistently. I lot of folks I subscribe to our dropping off and it's so dissapointing. Loved this video.

[@lindahays8444]

Busy ladies in the kitchen as I watch on the 20th. Been visiting grands and greats again and just rolled in home today. Y'all making me hungry lol I love chicken and dumplings.hope your men folks both get a deer.

I have a 7 year old great niece whose name is Corey Kay. I think of her every time I watch your show. 🥰

[@ladybug6184]

Kia Ora from New Zealand, Hello and Greetings! ❤ I watch you and your family every day , I come from a little rural place in the country and with both my parents gone now I truly miss the place in from , the simple life that's so rich. I have your videos playing most of the time , it's comforting , being in your kitchen with your lovely family. Your garden is absolutely wonderful , and I just love (and miss) the cast iron pans (hehe , I warn my friends , who come from the city ,a couple grew up rural like myself to never mess with women who can heft those things around 😂) I really just want to thank you for sharing your life with us , I'll be watching as long as you make videos ❤ My condolences for your loss. Corey , keep playing guitar on the porch swing , I remembered that song 'The Wurlitzer Prize' by Waylon Jennings!! Arohanui, from New Zealand ❤️

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

You are so kind! I’m so glad you enjoy our videos!! Thank you for sharing about your family and life!!

[@janemay8721]

That was such a sweet video. Watching you and Corie cooking and Katie popping in once and awhile . The peppers look so colorful in your jars. The cake looked delicious.

[@jelliott9752]

Did you notice the pumpkin that looks like a duck, watching you cook 😂😂❤❤

[@benitastevens612]

Oh, I planted 15 different hot peppers. I dry my peppers and blend them up, then blend up all kind of of herbs and then I mix up some of my seasoning in some of my hot peppers. I make mild, hot, and very hot and put them in shakers like salt and pepper shakers.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Sounds so good!

[@Williamleo71]

Thanks for another excellent video. Reminds me of spending time with family.

[@sondrafant360]

Being born and raised in Fort Smith Arkansas I still make bereavement meals Chicken and dumplings along with a side of green beans and some type of dessert. It was awesome hearing y’all think that’s a great meal!! Love y’all’s family and this channel ❤

[@lynlandham3779]

Sweet, beautiful video! So real and homey. Thank you for sharing.

[@estherj5887]

No wiser words than "I'm never doing that again !" Made me laugh! The hot peppers burning the hands happened to me also! Lessons learned!😂 Be well!
