Tipper, you are not silly or sappy. You are pure comfort. Please keep doing what you do, in your very special way. Love you, your sweet family and what you share with us.

Tipper is an angel.😇 It does my heart good to watch her videos.❤

Me too ❤❤❤❤

[@grekiely6245]

From down under. Ms Johnson, exactly, so glad I stumbled upon Tipper's and the Girl's channels. Very much Family, and a pleasure to listen into. Notice how the day's stress, while still there, somewhat seems to dissolve?

[@gracelandone]

You ever cease to amaze. You find beauty and solace in so many things you do. That’s probably how you were raised, but it’s also one of your gifts.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Oh thank you 😊

[@maryjemisonMaryjay1936]

I love the crunch sound when Tipper cuts the Cornbread ❤❤❤❤🥰

[@ruthnorman5021]

The green beans and potatoes took me back to my childhood. Thanks.

[@PepperplacewithShawna]

Cooked to death, green beans, and potatoes and fried green tomatoes, and cornbread. And then peach cobbler, oh my gosh. Your family is going to love this. ❤❤❤

[@phyllissalcido1846]

My mother would cook green beans til there was no hope that they had any nutrition left.

[@Michelle97woof]

@@phyllissalcido1846😂😂😂

[@johnnabuzby6103]

@phyllissalcido1846 Mama would do that same thing with broccoli when I was a little girl. She'd cook (boil) it to death, then cook it a little while longer to make sure it was done. To this day, I refuse to eat mushy broccoli, nor mushy squash. If they have some crunch to them, then I'm fine with eating them. Texture is a thing for me food-wise.

[@carolberry2733]

When I was young, fresh green beans with new potatoes, cornbread, tomatoes, cucumbers, corn on the cob, and cornbread were regular summertime suppers. Still a favorite many years later. And I love fried green tomatoes.

[@judithryle2113]

I love fried squash or fried okra too

[@ruthhstarr]

Love your cooking videos! After Hurricane Katrina, my son lived in a tent for a couple of weeks, and he cooked canned green beans and potatoes with an onion and some bacon cooked over fire. He developed a real love for this dish. Said he made it every day. Sustained him.

[@ginastanley4274]

I kept saying “Tipper something is about to boil over”🤣🤣🤣

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

😊

[@Psalmonetwentyone]

I just cleaned, strung, and broke 10 pounds of green beans and froze them. We just "happened" by a guy selling them for $2 a pound (God's provides). I told him 7 pounds and he gave me three. Can you believe it? There are still good people in the world as you and Matt are living proof! I made a blackberry cobbler Sunday for after dinner. Then only difference between mine and yours is that I sprinkle cinnamon and sugar over the top when it's done and then brown that for 3-4 minutes. It makes it have a sweet, crunchy shell on top! Your meal looks wonderful! Enjoy!!!

[@debbiemorgan6701]

A feast!

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

That is wonderful! 😊

[@MariePommer]

I remember almost Everytime that Mom fixed the First Green Beans and New Potatoes with ham and bacon. A Meal on it's own. Thank You Mom. 🌹🙏 I especially recall snapping beans and shelling peas with my Grandma at her 🏡 and my Mom @ our 🏡. Lots of History and Stories went along with the work. I Loved it.💗

[@ritaammons639]

That looks like a good meal. Thanks for sharing the view of the spread. ❤

Love those memories 😊

[@benitastevens612]

It does look a feast. I had green tomatoes today they were good. Loved the way you made the cobbler… that is the way I make mine…my husband likes a crust cobbler.

[@benitastevens612]

Yummy the cobbler looks delicious… yes we do fix new potatoes on ours often…up date on the critters ! Caught 2 more Raccoons this morning. No ground yet… but as we went to get my hair done, the biggest old ground hogjust down the road from us ran across in front of our car…here is a funny, my husband had to traps in the truck with the critters in them. He always unlatch cages and pushes them up to the tail gate. When he lets them out, all he has to do is let the tail gate down and the cage opens up and the critters run out…but this morning when he opened the tail gate only one critter run out…big raccoon got out, it may be laying in the road dead because he said he never stoped until he was ready to turn them out…and this evening he saw the deer again and he went chasing it back to the wooded area…we won’t have any tomato tops in the morning…we have just put out flowers and plants for the critters to eat.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

@@benitastevens612 Oh I know that is so frustrating!!

[@jeanettequeen2675]

Oh Tipper, you're starving me to death !! The best supper ever, always eat this all my life, my Daddy so loved this supper, his favorite too. My Mother cooked this supper for us all, all the years of our lives growing up. How blessed we are ! Love you.

[@susanschuck8124]

Memories of being on my grandma farm watching her snap beans with her shift dress on and an apron overtop! Of course wish those days never ended! Thank you for sharing!

[@pamwalker6284]

My little Mamaw always kept an extra, clean white apron hanging on a nail in the kitchen, “ in case company stops by” and she’d rush in and trade her apron when someone came to visit. Oh, I miss her…..

[@cindysteffens8065]

My grandma was from Ireland. She often made green beans with white rose potatoes. She cooked them slowly with onions and a quarter pound of butter in chicken stock. It was delicious and was a whole meal with homemade yeast rolls. Fond memories........❤

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Sounds great!

[@tnphoenixrising4378]

" Grandpa, what's for supper" Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm. Takes me back to my childhood. Thank you for allowing us to be part of your family, Tipper!

[@AnneMcGillicuddy]

It's great that you're cooking with the vegetables you just picked from your own garden. I love watching you cook supper.👍😀

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you 😊

[@shirleyfraney3130]

This is what I grew up with. Wonderful meal!!

[@AuntMaryNC]

I so relate to what you say about the beautiful food the garden provides, especially at this time of year. I buy a local farmer's box each week. On my pick up day, I bring everything home and carefully go through the box, washing everything and laying it out. I feel so grateful for the beautiful bounty.

[@lisabeal8615]

My grandmother made greenbeans with side meat. Oh boy, they were the best! Nice to eat together and help Corie with meals. And you get to spend time with those precious baby boys! God bless.

[@Ater_Draco]

You weren't at all soppy. You have a poetic soul, and a lovely way of describing the world as you see it ❤ I love new potatoes and green beans when they are in season, but we cook them separately in Wales. Green beans are also cooked for a much shorter time here. In the summer, we serve new potatoes tossed in butter and chopped fresh herbs. For Sunday lunch we had buttery Jersey potatoes, green beans, and sea bass. Perfect for a summer meal.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you 😊

[@saner6888]

That sounds like what I’m used to but doesn’t Tipper have a way of making her meals look so enticing 😋!!

[@Tonytherf]

Hey Tipper, wow you out did yourself. 👏 I never had green beans and potatoes prepared in the same pot, let alone fresh green beans and new potatoes. 😋 you're a true blessing to your family! Continued prayers for y'all and for your viewers going through difficult times.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you Tony 😊

God Bless you for these videos. It takes me back to the days before I lost my Mom and Grandma, it’s like being in the kitchen with them again, and so many of the foods you make are what we grew up on. Thank you so much.

[@HuberRhonda]

Green Beans with New Potatoes is the best start to Summer !!

I had green beans for our supper today with, not from our garden but fresh. They were good.

[@Sparkplug4712]

How I miss sitting on the back porch for hours with my grandmother and great-grandmother splitting peas and stringing the beans fresh from the garden. You always take me back to my fondest memories ❣️

[@user-jr7fc7lv6b]

I love the fact you don't use paper plates but instead real plates... food is so much better on a plate and no waste

[@kma9292]

I have never had green beans and potatoes like that but they look delicious. Everything looks delicious and the best part is you get to enjoy it with your family. Nothing could ever be better than that.

[@evelynmiller5336]

I love the potatoes cooked in the green beans. That is how my Mother always cooked them. I still cook them like that. I’ll tell you another thing I cook on the green beans. About 15 minutes before the beans are ready,lay a few pods of okra on top of the beans. Leave the stem on the okra. You may want to trim the stem but don’t cut into the pod.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

That sounds good!

[@deborahhopkins7763]

Oh my, I love fresh green beans with new potatoes. 😍

Thank you 😊

[@carolhutchinson566]

I loved it when you were moving the beans around in the water and talking about beautiful they looked in the sunlight.

[@davidhensley76]

When I moved away from home and did my own cooking I discovered that green beans don't need to be broken and don't require nearly as much cooking time as my mother thought they did. 😊

[@barbaravyse660]

I like them sautéd in olive oil and butter with garlic and shallots.

[@margaretmetz8454]

One of the best Childhood memories (and to make now) is fresh beans and orkee.

[@Tricia1969]

I love green beans cooked with new potatoes. My Ky mother would put on a pot of green beans when I was growing up and cook them for hours. They were so good wth new potatoes, fresh tomatoes, green onions cole slaw and corn bread. Mom cooked her beans until dry, no liquid remained I cook like her.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Love those memories 😊

A perfect supper!! That's the way I love my greenbeans also.

[@thomastommy1192]

That is a meal fit for kings and queens as my dad used to say. Everything looks so good. I can't remember the last time I had a meal with all of those foods at once. You are right the green beans taste so much better with new potatoes. I have had three meses of green beans this year so far. I only had new potatoes with one dinner. That made the meal ten times better. Sadly I live in the North now and I don't get access to this many different dishes at once very often. But it does look so good. God bless you for sharing your video and dinner. This took me back home a few minutes. I hope you enjoyed your meal.

The problem is Devil runs the world. He is lier and murderer. This is the reason why Hitler got the power, but Christ was executed as "blasphemer" and "rioter" by denunciation of clergy. This is the reason why the whole world is Sodom. That's why we've got the Gospel about the God's kingdom. Jehovah would put everything in order. The dead will be resurected and we'll meet our loved ones again! :-)

Cottage ham with green beans and potatoes has always been one of my favorite meals. Although it seems harder and harder to find cottage ham in the stores now. Also, my mother used to send me out to pick some green tomatoes for her to fry. My Dad used to pretend he was mad that Mom had me pick them before they got red, but he definitely loved her fried green tomatoes. Good memories.

[@shirleyvastine9328]

Mom used to get good cottage ham from a butcher shop. Now, I only see those things in plastic wrap, and they are nasty. Mom cooked it in a pressure cooker, no green beans with it. It's one of my favorites.

Mom cooked green beans and potatoes and a chunk of ham or ham bone in a pot and we ate that as a meal. It was soooooo good....my favorite dinner to this day.

I often cook from memories, and of course videos like yours Tipper. Thank you.

My mouth is watering. I can remember coming home from school and smelling that yummy aroma of green beans simmering. The tiny little new potatoes were added at the end. We used salt pork to season. We had Lacey cornbread. It wasn’t until I was in my 50’s that I tasted a green bean sautéed with onions and tomatoes for the first time. It was like a different vegetable. My husband said they weren’t done. I’m from the VA/N.Carolina border. Your cooking is very similar to what I grew up with. All the canning and pickling from our huge garden. Oh how I miss those times with extended family all living together and times were good. Morals were good. People worked hard but enjoyed life so much. Quite the contrary to today’s lifestyle. Your video’s warm my heart as I yearn for times gone by.

[@celtprincess13]

Oh my goodness, when you were washing those beans it brought back memories of helping my granny can her beans. She always let me rinse the beans because I loved playing in the water too!
