Christmas Kitchen Clean, Decorate + Bake Gingersnaps with Me

Thank you for not turning your channel into commercials. Your content is always so lovely.

[@jeanieh9386]

Yes! I agree 10000 times.

[@CraftySherCupcake]

Ads are how KZbinrs make their money! Hilary puts a ton of time and effort into her videos, she deserves to be compensated! I don’t mind ads when I know it’s helping the creator financially!

@@CraftySherCupcake neither do I. However, I think the original comment was regarding paid promotions.

@@CraftySherCupcake Dislike the commercials. They start and I leave

[@klaire74]

Since a few days ago every channel have commercials on it, regardless of its status (monetized or not). They took the liberty to just implement this without asking. Maybe to force the viewers to take their payed plan and for sure to squeeze any money they can from all the sides involved. If is about the sponsored videos, i don't mind now and then, but yes, some channels made a custom of this, and is more than annoying.

[@JolovesDecor]

I so desire your natural look over any Hobby Lobby look anyway. How homey and beautiful. The garland looks so cute.

[@sheilapellicane8507]

You did it again Hillary, You never disappoint!!! Once again the holiday season is here and Hillary to the rescue. You really need your own show but on a big network!! Your simplicity, your domestic skills and knowledge of all things great and beautiful never cease to amaze me. I always feel warm and cozy after viewing your videos, I hope your Thanksgiving is filled with love, thankfulness and laughter.

[@reniehandler2595]

I've said it before, but your editing skills are 💯!!! It's so relaxing to sit back and watch your videos because they're put together so nicely! I could just imagine how nice your clean kitchen, potpourri simmering on the stove and freshly baked ginger snap cookies smelled in your home!!! Merry Christmas!! 🎄

[@OldWorldHome]

The cookies smelled amazinggg 💛

[@deniseconaway701]

What i love Hilary is for anyone on a budget or finding it a struggle money wise, a lot of the touches in your kitchen are really very inexpensive, thank goodness your not constantly hunting the shops for more decor which is neither good for the environment or the pocket, loved the vlog thankyou x

[@eiyiyiyi]

OK, I'm back 3 days later. you've never steered me wrong on recipes so I got my ingredients together and made a batch of gingersnaps. the dough was so good I immediately threw together a second batch. 8 dozen of the best gingersnaps ever!!!!!!! My husbands first comment was "we're not giving these away are we?" So easy and so delicious. They will be my third cookie every Christmas from now on. Linzer tarts, coconut macaroons and gingersnaps .... what a trio. thanks again.

[@marymartinez8047]

It’s such a pleasure to walk into a clean inviting kitchen, especially one decked out for the holidays. And I know it’s the Christmas season without a sign telling me 😉.

[@leslierozon2318]

It's so refreshing to see someone decorating in a realistic way instead of with Hobby lobby/Michaels decor! Your kitchen looks festive and natural...thank you for the inspiration!

[@carolwillingham2129]

Hillary, I just love your home, it is so classic, warm and cozy. I enjoyed this video as I always do.

[@debbiem6406]

It’s always the simple, lovely things that offer so much joy. ❤️💚

[@marthayoder1188]

You really do have a special touch! I so enjoy your channel. You are an inspiration to me. Thank you for sharing.

[@gopugmama4408]

I could sit at your kitchen island and watch you for hours! Just chatting and drinking coffee with you would seem like two old friends enjoying the holidays. By the way, I'm making your molasses cookie recipe from last year, they looked delicious. Be blessed, Hilary!

[@LifesLittleThingz]

This video is so peaceful and it seems effortless. Loved it!

[@jpgaffney248]

thank you, Hilary for the simple but beautiful & natural elements for Christmas.

[@vlheern]

I did a simmer pot today! it just made my whole kitchen smell so cozy! my husband came up with the great idea of putting the liquid in a mini crock pot, so it could stay out longer...

[@susanvelez6534]

Have a BLESSED thanksgiving, I'm here with mama that now lives with us, though her dementia is incredibly difficult, I fell thankful that she is with me. She wants my lasagna for thanksgiving and that is what we will have. Those cookies looked DELISH! Love how you decorated the kitchen my friend. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙋🏻🙅🏻🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@carolrodenbeck2381]

I can smell the ginger and citrus, I can feel the cozy . . . your videos are the best Hilary! You are making so many great memories for your children. Happy Thanksgiving!

[@debbieherring2644]

You have a beautiful kitchen and thank you for the cookie recipe! God bless❤️🎄

[@kathykaufman1244]

Gingersnaps looked delicious, i'll have to make a batch this week! Also loved the simmer pot idea...with the heater going full tilt its dry in here, so that will perfume the house while it moistens the air. Thank you for the great ideas!

[@1964mae]

I love the way you decorated your kitchen. It looks so inviting and cozy.

[@staroliva6502]

How beautiful and simple. Thank you Hilary for the natural elements that you inspired us.🎄

[@jafrompa1555]

Oh come do my kitchen! 😊 You make it look so cozy and I bet those cookies are delish. I got the recipe and may try them. I like to make simmering pots too. Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas all in one line. 💙

[@athomewithshushana]

It's just always so sweet to see your lovely home especially during the holidays. You did such a wonderful job at making your home feel so warm and cozy. Im inspired to start my kitchen decorating now 😊. Thanks for the inspiration friend ❤. Absolutely beautiful 😍❤. Tfs

[@lamaisonbellevintage1476]

The cookies look YUMMY!!! Your kitchen decor is lovely as always!

[@heathercheatham2598]

Have you thought about hanging some greenery from your island pendant light? I’m planning to do that with my dining room frame style light. Great idea of the summer pot gift!

[@sharonsomers5513]

Cookies look really good. I will have to try a recipe like that. Like how you decorate!

[@gailallen2895]

The kitchen looks so clean and fresh and welcoming. We make similar simmer pots most of the cold months . I'd make those cookies to have the fragrance in our home...and get a treat too.🍪

[@sueknicely504]

Such a cozy kitchen and yummy looking cookies!😋 God bless your day!

[@carmenteixeira9344]

Hi Hilary, thanks for brightening up my day! We are in our second lockdown here in Toronto, so, your video is very well received. It's a great day for baking and decorating my castle. Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving to you and your lovely family.

[@laurensolf7705]

Enjoyed this. Anything to do with your kitchen, Im in. I love your kitchen! Anyway, wanted to mention that I listened to your book recommendation "The Light Between Oceans." Thank you so much. Im not a huge reader but I do enjoy a good book once I get into it. I hadnt heard of this book but I trusted your recommendation. Glad I did. Cheers.

[@OldWorldHome]

Glad you enjoyed, definitely one of my all time favorites now 💛

[@bethmann3283]

I love your kitchen, so pretty and functional!! That scalloped milk glass bowl, that will be something that your kids will remember you using many years from now and will all want it 😍

[@margaretdell25]

So lovely....I live in a coastal town off the gulf of Mexico and we have bugs here that have their own condos.....I cannot leave out any cookies or edible things on the counters. But, I do have fruit that looks like it just came off the trees in the backyard....they actually came from Amazon....just don't bite into them.

[@MommaSchmoozeReviews]

Just added the simmer pot to our kitchen today to make it extra Christmassy 🎄

[@trudymckay1753]

Hi Hillary, totally enjoyed your video, I made the ginger cookies today, they turned out great. My husband said they are delicious but they are really sweet. I can't try this batch because I am gluten free but I will be making some with almond flour and I will let you know what I think. Love how simple you decorate, I want to be more like you like that, your kitchen is beautiful for Christmas but there's hardly anything that has to be stored away when Christmas is over, that's genius!! Are you putting a tree in your bedroom this year?

[@horrisajones8933]

Kitchen looks great cookies look yummy 😋

[@yvonnebrown1585]

I must try a simmerpot. It's been a while since I've done that. Love the little touches you have added. And I swear I can smell those cookies😙😋🍪🍪👏🌲

[@colorcrayon54]

Hilary, your home is so warm & inviting! You do a great job at placing just enough to make it festive! One question; do you have trouble w/ critters in your natural decor from your yard? When I lived in the PNW I did & was wondering how you prepare your stems.

[@aprilh5186]

I'm wondering this too. I have an evergreen tree in my backyard I would love to pull from but I don't want the unwanted guests.

[@phyllisanngodfrey6137]

I have always liked your kitchen. I think it is the wood counter tops that make it look so warm and inviting.

[@patriciaconiglio6717]

[@sharoncresenzi3016]

The cookies look so good, I’m going to have to try them. Beautiful touches of Christmas.

[@te4545]

Really enjoyed this video Hilary. We had our first snowfall yesterday so this brought the perfect amount of coziness and festive spirit to enjoy with my breakfast and morning coffee today. The gingersnaps looked delicious. I think making a batch of these might need to be added to the day’s to-do list 😉. Not traditional but some chocolate chips/chunks added to gingersnaps is a nice little twist. Have a lovely day 😊.

[@kimberleyboone2084]

That cookie recipe was amazing. Thanks!

Honestly these were very tasty, but I preferred last years 🤗

[@rosiehelminiak2947]

@@OldWorldHome thank you for your quick response! I know last year's seamed like perfection to me. Thank you again.

I love the idea of putting fresh greenery out, but allergies don't allow for it in our home. I'm thankful for faux greenery so I can at least get the visual effect. Your house always looks lovely. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.

[@EzzyDT]

I love your wood counter. How do you like it? Would you do it again and what’s the upkeep like?

[@OldWorldHome]

We love them, yes we’d do them again. For the cost savings, it was the best option that still gave us a real material. If we were to upgrade one day we’d likely do stone or quartz but that’s not any time soon. I just clean with soap and water, try to keep water from settling on them, and use hot plates and trivets to protect the surface 💛

[@sheliajones8238]

Hillary that looks beautiful I need you at my house to decorate yes I do you've got the most beautiful house and how you do it I'll never know and how you find time to do it. But it is beautiful love watching you made them cookies I'm not to get the recipe cuz my husband loves cookies like that. God bless you hope you have a wonderful and a very blessed week.

[@astayathome]

I always love your videos - we are not getting together with family for Thanksgiving, because we’re in a pandemic, and I’m thinking of those working in healthcare; of those who are missing family who’ve passed away from COVID-19. Our state has an order to enjoy the holiday with only people in our own household - so does yours. What a shame that you don’t seem to feel that this is important enough 🙁

[@dianneary1559]

Everything looks so great!!! Love watching your channel. Could I please ask you what you were using to clean with in the spray bottle? Thank you!! Have a blessed day!!
