You and Ron are great. What a unique and interesting channel. You two have garnered such love in a VERY short time from 10's of thousands of your subscribers. Hope to chat with you guys live. Be well

[@EarlyAmerican]

Thank you for following our journey! It has been fun.

[@O_DoodleMom5]

So are you two a “real” couple? Not just for the sake of re-introducing the world to Early America and the ways of everyday life but a legitimate couple? I really hope you are because I’ve already fallen in love with your courtship and journey through life together not just as a portrayal of the period but as a real-life today couple! Give this girl some hope! 😂❤️

[@LoganCarmichael]

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE you guys! And I love the "fireside chat" idea here for everyone instead of Patreon. While I completely understand the reasons for Patreon and "VIP-style" clubs, etc... Not everyone can easily do it and miss out on some of the best content. I truly appreciate you guys offering that level of content for those who maybe cannot join Patreons and other exclusives. SO AWESOME! And those gingerbread cookies look awesome! My fave is probably Snickerdoodle or just plain old sugar cookies, but gingerbread is in the top 3 for me!

[@frontierpatriot]

Hey Logan, youre very welcome! Thankyou for the compliments!!

[@marksgirl8295]

Your channel is easily one of my favorites! I am constantly watching for new episodes! Much love to you both. ❣️

That flower cookie press looks like a THISTLE to me. That would be a good item to use for Scottish shortbread since the thistle is one of the national symbols of Scotland.

[@user-pd7nt1ke2j]

What a lovely and nowadays unexpected, uplifting surprise to have discovered!! Thank you with all my heart. I am watching from the Netherlands and you are my favourite channels! I love cooking, I love nature, I miss a life without all the modern things that make life meaningless and impoverished. I love you both, may you be blessed and carry on with the enrichening things you give us so charmingly.

A little practical advice about the cat=> Sometimes when cats suddenly disappear, it is because they get accidentally locked into sheds, garages, vehicles, etc. Be alert to any structures in the near vicinity.

I absolutely love this channel, thank you for sharing your love of this time period with us.

[@PenelopePeppers]

I think You Guys are AWESOME : ) :) :) I was taught that the family slept in the barn while the house was being built . Barns were built first so that they family could protect their livestock and then they would eventually move into the house when it ready for your family ,......And there must be a Water Spring on the property for animals and cooking and cleaning . The water supply was the most important point in considering where to break ground !!!

[@brendawei7356]

The pilot episode of The tv show Little House on the Prairie, when they finally got to the spot they wanted to Homestead, took care of the shelter for their animals first also before Pa Ingals started on the house.

[@RobinMarconeCassidyRN]

Justine, I live in a very small town that has the most amazing antique stores. I know they do have very old cooking implements also cast iron pots and pans. I try to limit myself from going so much because I love these stores and its almost an addiction. 😉 . Now that I know what you collect, I will see what they have next time I'm in there. Its good to know you have a po box. I really love your channel and now a few of my staff started watching as well. Thanks so much to you and Ron! 💖

I like crispy cookies and crispy oatmeal cookies are my favorites. But Justine's tip on the gingerbread cookies to keep them from getting too hard is well-advised since I'm going to try making them for Christmas. I'm new to both your channels and am enjoying them immensely. You two are so down-to-earth and knowledgeable about the frontier and early America. Best wishes and keep the videos coming!

Justine, you have a great cookie press cool. I'm a big cookie eater and gingerbread, chocolate chip and oatmeal are among my favorites. I will add a 1/4 tsp of clove to my oatmeal cookie batter to give it a nice hint of spice. Looking forward to the next video!!

I would absolutely love to live in a house/cabin such as this, love the decor and looks so cozy and comfortable. Love your show, my mama was raised on a farm, heard lots of stories about the early 1930's and 40's. Ron, drink almond milk 😊 oatmeal cookies will stay soft or any will stay soft if you put slice of bread in the storage container, thumbprint cookies with a Hershey's kiss in the middle-Yummy!!!!!

[@dewdrop3302]

Great idea. Have Ron make the oatmeal cookies. Justine you take a rest. You guys are the best. ❤

[@brat46]

I have a cookie iron from the 1800's from Belgium that was my great grandmothers (I am in my 60's). As far as sleeping outside, if you think about southern houses they would have the wide porches and they were used as sleeping porches. Now the baskets that you used for drying the ginger, grandma used to use baskets that had a tighter weave and then dry her veggies outside. the baskets had a lid that attached and it was lined with a flour sack cloth to keep bugs off of them. and they would be hung from the clothes line so the heat would dry the veggies. I am building (or trying to) a new system to air dry for next summer as my previous one got to old to use anymore.

[@bonniegarber9915]

Wow... that is interesting, about your grandmother's basket, thanks for sharing!

[@tal23-tanika3]

You both are doing an amazing job!

[@TyrannosaurusRae.]

You guys have such an amazing place. Whenever I see ya’ll I think about an old sad iron that my grandmother passed down to me, it’s dated mid 1700’s - early 1800’s and it’s such a treasure. Also I have become obsessed with collecting red Transferware like your two pieces usually displayed! Totally addicted to antiques. The coffee mug thing got to me because it’s also something great to collect, especially stoneware things in my opinion hahahah. You’d thoroughly enjoy my late grandmas early cookbooks. Many from the 30’s-40’s but they are so fragile. The whole aesthetic of y’all bring SUCH joy and peace throughout this platform. Love from Coastal Georgia! 🇺🇸

I enjoyed this fireside chat, hope you do more of them. btw, that cookie press design is a thistle I believe.

Milo! OMGosh, I can't believe this recently learned info would come in handy, Who knew? I'm a MO girl but have lived in CO for most of my life. (and that's a long time cuz I'm pretty old) A few months ago, hubby and I made a trip to KS & MO. We saw a lot of the mystery flower (like the press) growing in fields. We city dwellers had to ask a local. The kind soul answered our question but I think I heard a faint snicker as we were leaving. Hubby and I are fairly new to your channels but are ADDICTED!

I have a great tip. Use the Nestle Tollhouse choc chip cookie recipe, except sub 1 cup of oats for 1 cup of the flour. Soak raisins in 1/2 cup boiling water for 1 minute. Drain the raisins and add 1/4 cup of raisin water to the cookie dough. Add chopped nuts and Bake as usual. These cookies meet all cookie desires.
