This Isn't GOOD! OVEN FIRE on Christmas!

[@dianehall5345]

Good morning Al. Your kitchen is a great testimony to functional design and Kitchen Aid! Purchased my stand mixer in 1977 and still going strong! Did take a cue from you and bought a 6 qt. Instant Pot. It is just my husband and I, but my brother-in-law enjoys coming down from the main farm for weekend dinners. Like your family, we are a mix of the "BEST OF " 1935 and 2018. Soon you will be unfolding continued homesteading adventures in 2019. All the best in the coming New Year!

Nice update and what a fabulous Turkey dinner you cooked up. I hope your Christmas was as good as was mine.

Thanks for sharing your Christmas with us.

[@Barbwheel]

Awesome video as always! Happy New Year to you and yours! 💕✌🏼👨‍👩‍👧

[@ellenarchambault8526]

I love the wrapping paper. So resourceful.

[@arciafrench993]

I worked at hosp for Christmas so thanks for having me over for the day on your channel. On my farm the animals always had their Christmas first. I didn’t know they still had Polaroid cameras, I have pics from them with my girls 36 yrs ago. Looking forward to you sharing all your adventures with us in the new year.

[@TWROC96]

Thanks for sharing your Christmas with us Al, Gina and Libby. Seems like a wonderful and relaxing day. I think Pluto and Libby each enjoyed their gifts. Have a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

[@onemorchatykathy]

Another wonderful video. Love watching all of you cook, feed the animals and Olivia playing with her Legos!

[@virginiareid5336]

Love the overhead shots. So serene and beautiful.

[@millerjoan]

Thank you for sharing your Christmas day. And what a beautiful day it was! Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@stroongmaan966]

Nice Video its so cool on your Farm Sorry for my English I‘m from Germany

[@Bamboo4U2]

In German, you capitalize the first letter of all nouns, correct? That's one thing we don't do in English. (So in your first sentence, "video" and "farm" don't need to be capitalized. And "it's so cool" needs the apostrophe since "it's" is a contraction of "it and is.")

[@gailc.goodwin2053]

Don't be sorry, you did very well writing in English. It's a hard language to learn with some crazy rules. Most people wouldn't do very well writing in German, right? Guten Tag!

[@caroldorsett8170]

Flotte Katze don’t let that stop you from posting. You do a nice job of using English.

[@natashasemrau3670]

Like Carol says just keep posting. Some of us native English writers are not very good at spelling or punctuation eighter! We can make it out. 🌲😇🌲😇🌲😇🌲😇🌲😇🌲😇🌲😇🌲😇🌲😇🌲😇🌲

Thanks for bringing us along! That turkey looked incredible. Happy holidays and new year!

[@audreyabdo7719]

A beautiful Christmas dinner and I’m so glad y’all didn’t have a real oven fire, that scared me. That turkey looked so good. I’m sure it tasted good. Take care.

[@patmaier6917]

You all are such a lovely family! Thank you for sharing.

[@Amsbury]

Merry Christmas! Good night, Lumnah Family!

[@fionajane56]

What a lovely day you had. Isn’t it a satisfying feeling roasting a turkey you raised? We had a quiet sunny rain free Christmas Day with a home raised roast chicken, home grown sweet potatoes and pickled beets, deer sausage dressing with our own onions and garlic. Whipped cream from our Jersey on green tomato mincemeat pie for dessert. Your Christmas treats for the animals were great. Wishing you the very best forv2019

[@ourfloridagarden4191]

We did have a lovely Christmas. Jonah was up at 4:30am to open his gifts ( mostly Lego), Jim and I didn’t have the heart to tell him to go back to bed. Needless to say we had naps before joining my sissy and her fam for dinner. Nice to see y’all also had a great time. Happy New Year!

[@vito336]

What a relaxing day. Thank you.

Merry Christmas ! May God continue to bless your family. I truly enjoy your videos, I miss my farm in Western MA. The best homesteading channel out there.

[@timothybrown7779]

You should get another Farm Jamie.. I've been looking for land here in Texas but so hard to find and afford the high prices .

[@danaspetrini8338]

Livvy has one up on most kids! She knows what a Polaroid is!!! Very cool gift Al!!

[@jimclaire7996]

Al, it looks as if your Christmas was great. The weather looks cold. We have a storm, but it cleared up yesterday and we had a great day. Great video and I am sure your daughter will have many great memories when she see the videos in the future. When you go down memory lane you will have a large body of work for your family to look back on. May God bless you all and provide you a prosperous 2019. Happy Holidays.

[@edgarbowser5325]

You were missing the stuffing & homemade turkey gravey from the turkey drippings.

[@SavvyOrganicsFarm]

Merry Christmas! Christmas or not, snow or not the livestock still need to eat. No day off for homesteaders or farmers. Love it!

[@amydelpiere6078]

Always love that big kitchen and pantry! We have a new kitchen on our list but with so many homestead projects it will be a few more years. Merry (belated) Christmas and thank you for sharing.

[@timothybrown7779]

I thought for sure that Liv was getting a live Hedgehog for Christmas. Ah mannnnnnnn! Have a great day...

[@agnestakacs2059]

That is one yummy looking Christmas feast!! We had smoked Turkey legs and used hickory and apple wood chips for it. Delicious! A chef's tip I picked up in hospitality is when you use your knife to scrape food off the board, use the other side (Top Part) of the knife to scrape otherwise the knife loses its sharpness and goes blunt quicker :D

[@e.cahill9594]

Such a joy to watch your video’s! Thank you for sharing your Christmas Day with us. Everything looks delicious! You work very hard providing video’s of your journey of your farm. I find watching your video’s so calming. My adult daughter is struggling with chronic Lyme Disease and has been very sick which is heartbreaking as a parent. Fortunately, we live in Massachusetts and she has great doctors but the struggle is real. Watching your video’s through the years has been a joyful experience, so on hard days you may have filming your life, know it does make a difference in people’s lives. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year😊

[@Bamboo4U2]

Oh, also forgot to mention, I love that potato masher/spinner thingey. And those chocolate dipped strawberries and the freshly made whipped cream looked AMAZING.

[@LumnahAcres]

The strawberries and whipped cream made a great dessert

Thanks! Very relaxing video! Love seeing all of you cooking together! Happy New Year 🎆

[@albanymountainhomestead]

We used an orange, apple, & spice brine recipe (I only used 1/3 of the salt added just before cooking) on our turkey, and cooked it (in the brine) breast side down for a majority of the cook time then flipped for the last 30 mins or so and man did that turkey breast meat come out sooo juicy... Even my husband was impressed and he's not much of a turkey person.

[@eileenpalumbo6578]

Beautiful morning sky!

[@rosyhallowell8799]

looks like you guys had a great Christmas. Hope your New Years is just as fun you guys are such a great family we look forward to your videos. Keep up the great work on your family and homestead.

I'm so glad you got a white Christmas and had a great day, even if you did set the oven a blaze! Tell Gina I'll take the left over artichoke and spinach dip! I'm really looking forward to the glove review cause I need some insulated waterproof gloves that I can work in. Blessing to all y'all!

[@JamesCouch777]

Glad you mentioned family coming over cause we were thinking that was an awful lot of food for three people. Happy holidays to your family.

When you have an oven fire, sprinkle baking soda on the flame. It will put the fire out (it suffocates the the flame,) absorbs any liquid and helps with the clean up. Backing soda is one of the ingredients in kitchen fire extinguishers!

Keep a large container of baking soda right near your oven. Use a handful to snuff out a fire quickly. Cheap insurance... you could get a hedgehog container for it! Merry Christmas meal looked wonderful. The music and Pluto wipeout, Gina walking on ice was delightful as well. Nice job on the decoration Olivia! Courage, Barbara in Maine

[@theresathreadgill1386]

Cool Beans! Very pretty!

[@hughbrackett343]

Beautiful sunset! We dont cook on Christmas. We prefer to relax and enjoy the day. We have things prepared ahead. When I got up I stuck the Breakfast Burritos in the oven. Around 2 we stuck the Lasagna in. Cheeseball and desserts all made the day before. We use paper plates to minimize the cleanup. Give it a try one year. I think you'll have a new tradition.

Enjoyed the video this morning. I like the fact you got a white Christmas. Southern Arizona, not so white down by my place but we did have snow up in the mountains. Had a little bit of snow yesterday right here near my place on the hills, did not come down to the level of the house though. Wishing you a safe and happy holiday season. I'm enjoying the videos each morning.

[@stephenriley9084]

Al, Glad you all had a Happy Christmas ! Kitchen fires are not good. We had a fire in our microwave the week before Christmas. It's old and had been doing random things in its programs recently. At 4am it decided to grill!! It grilled its empty self so hard there was blue smoke everywhere. We disconnected it from the mains and let it cool down. At 04:20 I bought a replacement on Amazon, which is just amazing as the following day it was here. The old one is in the garden on its way to recycling. Moral of the story.... Smoke alarms are cool. We have 4 in our house as it is long and 3 floors high. Happy New Year when it comes. Regards Stephen.

Had to watch this video because the title reminded me of the Thanksgiving our self-cleaning oven locked and geld our turkey hostage for about 20 minutes. We called Butterball's 1-800 line just to tell them the story which had them laughing.
