I just love it so much when Matt looks at Tipper and smiles. His love for her shines through and I think that’s a beautiful thing.

Yeah I was raised in louisiana and then lived in SE GA on a barrier island with no bridges. You talk about hot and humid! Wow! Have to take boat to town to get groceries through marsh and intercostal and down a river. Then get in vehicle and shop n keep in cold bags and load back up and then unload into 4wheelwr or truck and take home n unload. Lots of handling and loading and unloading just to grocery shop. Was too hot to walk to beach n jump in! Lol I tell ya, I don’t know how I did it and couldn’t do it again.

I don't think there is anything wrong with any of these comments expressing gratitude. It is a gift from God that Tipper and her family use a much misused resource to give companionship and education to anyone who is blessed to find it.

[@TheDurnans]

Seeing Matt there holding that basket of tomatoes, he almost looks like Jim Varney, the late actor/comedian who was very gifted. When I was a child, I'd fall asleep to the sound of my relatives conversing and laughing. I didn't realize at the time how much I'd miss hearing their voices. Listening to Matt and you just conversing is just as calming and pleasant, even if you're not talking about much other than observations. Conversation like that is becoming a lost art form as people will text their loved ones across the room! Insanity!

[@SuzieQ-lw2kp]

Good Morning Tipper and Matt I'm glad that you are getting back to some kind of normal after your loss of Miss Cindy. As you was talking about her little cat she had all those years and him passing two days before her. I was thinking he couldn't stand the thought without her so he went on so he could be there waiting on her . I have heard some say that old pets like that will hang on because they know their owner still needs them . To me our animals are such a wonderful gift from God to us they love us so unconditionally I know my little dogs always know when I'm having a really bad day with all the pain and they stay right at my side. They sure keep me company I'm so thankful I have them in my life. I hope your trip went well and after the book signing you all took a break and got some rest it will take a little while to get all your strength back. We are getting rain right now it's so hot and humid here in southern KY we even had a Air Quality alert Thursday and Friday it was so smokey from the fires out of Canada. I can't imagine the people up north living in all the smoke. 🙏 Sending You All Prayers and Blessings 🙏💙💙💙 🇺🇸 HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY 🇺🇲🎆🎇✴️💥🌟

[@jacquelineraines2074]

Our pets know more than we give them credit for. I'm glad the kitty passed first as it is worrisome to leave one behind. Pace yourself and you will be better off with all that catch up! I know, the harvest is near but one day at a time please. I say it in love.❤

Thank you for letting us know about Yoda. I am sorry for his loss, but glad Miss Cindy did not grieve for him. I don’t know if animals go to heaven (sure hope they do!) but hopefully Yoda was waiting there to greet Miss Cindy. You said a couple of times you needed to wash your face and comb your hair. Brought back memories of my daddy making me get up for school. Every morning he would say “time to get up, wash your face and hands, brush your teeth, and comb your hair” 😂 I’ll never forget that sweet memory. Praying that God continues to bless you all as you deal with the loss of Miss Cindy ❤ PS, I’m with Matt … hate the heat and humidity. The only good thing about summer is thunder storms, IMO. Nothing like the sky getting black, flashes of lightning and booming thunder!

[@MsCassieCrowe]

Aww, what about that...Ole Yoda knew his person was leaving and must have figured he'd go on so he could be there waiting for her ❤

What you guys said about the old-timey work-entertainment of making green tomato pickles and corn shuckings, etc. is so true. There is a meme going around Facebook that says, "The problem with today's society is that nobody sits on the porch and shells peas (or snaps beans or whatever) with grandma anymore." And then your conversation reminded me of two times in my life when I went to visit an aunt and uncle only to find one snapping, stringing and shelling shelly beans with a couple of cousins and another aunt or the other aunt I went to see, we (auntie and cousins) sat and shucked and cut off the cob several bushels of sweet corn to put in freezer bags for Thanksgiving. Both times I went home with a gallon bag full of goodies; shelly beans and green beans from the one visit, and a bag of cut corn off the cob from the other visit. Good times!

Those marigolds reminded me, we have a kitty who’s about two years old now, and every once in awhile he just gets on a digging spree when we let him out in the backyard. So we have all kinds of little tiny holes in the backyard, and my husband told me I should plant marigolds in them 😊.

Some of my best memories are of camping by a stream, fishing for supper. Camp fires to roast hot dogs and s'mores. Sleeping in a sleeping bag, on the ground, on the tarp of the floor of the tent. Hanging laundry on a makeshift clothesline. Cooking on a Coleman propane stove. Lighting with a Coleman lantern. Using the great outdoors for the facilities . My brother in law was a barber he'd drive us up to the camping site and leave us for a week. Just my big sister and sister val and me. No transportation. 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Love those memories 😀

[@jaiengore2908]

Growing up we always had an half acre garden. One year our tomatoes did amazing! After we picked our last harvest, we let the green tomatoes get nice and big. While they were still green, we picked them. Then momma and I wrapped 1 page of newspaper around it. We filled 2 tomato boxes that way. We then put the boxes in the bottom of the fridge. At Thanksgiving and Christmas we unwrapped the tomatoes, picked out the bad (some didn’t survive), and the ones that were ripe, what were not ripe was rewrapped and put back into the box and fridge. It was so nice to have fresh tomatoes during the holidays!!

Yoda crossed The Rainbow Bridge, there in perfect health and perfect he waited 2 days until Miss Cindy arrived. Now Miss Cindy has all of her cats and they are together forever.

[@leighflorkevich9916]

I hate the heat and humidity too! It's been humid in West Virginia for the last couple of days. I'm glad you told us about Yoda. I started to ask but then I thought it might be too nosey of me. I have four cats and they sure have been a comfort and good company since my husband died. I love all animals and I somehow end up with all the strays in my neighborhood, dogs and cats. I'm too old and disabled to take care of a dog now so when my last dog died I had to say no more doggies. Pets can tell when their humans are ill and since Yoda was already in decline he knew it was time to go. My Mom and Dad had a cat named Yoda many years ago.

Hey Tipper. I just want to thank you for the opportunity to meet you , Matt & Katie on Saturday. I was star struck at the moment but today I could think of all kinds of things I would love to sit and chat with you by the wood stove. You are so sweet & genuine just like on your videos. You would never know y’all had done a days work before meeting everyone on Saturday. Y’all are precious & I love your popsicle chats. I grew up in the 60s & 70s and we would have those hog killings you were talking about. They were so much fun, even though it was freezing cold & your fingers felt like they would fall off. When our children grew up & married, I asked the daughter in laws if they wanted to learn to can and freeze. We would set up a day that they could all come over & I would buy up several boxes of the chosen produce from a local produce farmer. They learned to can green beans & tomatoes & to freeze corn & butter beans. We all worked together and divided the bounty. They continue to put up food now on their own. I am enjoying my cookbook. It is a treasure. Congratulations to you & Jim on creating such a beautiful book.

Oh my goodness! The chicken at the end was priceless! And then Matt’s little dig at Katie made me think of her little Joey character. You should do a video just on the chickens. It would tickle me to death!! Love you all as usual…oh! I found some funny gardening shirts that were perfect for y’all. Each one is different and says something that matches all three of you girls. Maybe when I get paid next time I might splurge and get you each one…but only if you make a chicken video!!😂

I was raised on the gulf coast and the heat and humidity can be terrible. I' haven't worked an outside job, (only in my youth), being a lab technologist. But watching you guys can make me feel lazy and out of touch with nature. However hearing Matt talk about his inability to tolerate the heat and humidity makes me feel less pathetic 🙄LOL! And I also want to add that the weather in the Appalachians can be very different than that of the gulf coast . So at almost 50 I am more forgiving of myself for hating the heat and humidity. Well...... anyhow on another note you guys have a special life. You guys are very blessed to have the life you have. It is a testimony to many people.

I'm with Matt! I grew up in SE Missouri, close to the Mississippi River. Summers were in the 100s with 99% humidity. I spent summers working for Dekalb. One year, I suffered from heat exhaustion. Now, I can not take heat and humidity at all! Now, we live in a dry climate. It might get hot, but it's definitely not as bad without the humidity!

I love Matt's sense of humor.

Friday was miserable, it was unbearable and, the next night we had bad storm where, the power went out, nothing worse it seems like sleeping inside when, it’s hot. My step dad had a bunch of outdoor cats and, they seemed like they kept repopulating. The thing about most indoor cats can be very calm in the midst of everything that goes on in life. But, then, those are those rare cats that can be worse than a 2 yr old child, which a friend of mine had. With a camper you then, have to fight the heat. I do know in some of the state parks they have cabins and, a few here and there have a few motels and fancy restaurants. Well, thanks 🙏🏻 for sharing your Sunday with us. May God continue to comfort you and you & your family are in my prayers.

I’m Team Matt when it comes to the weather. I gardened for two hours this morning and the heat and humidity did me in! Bring back the winter, please! 😂

Yoga & Ms Cindy crossed the rainbow bridge together. Love how you two interact.

[@williammorrison5678]

Nice to see you relaxing a little.

[@caroledavidson2153]

My momma and her 3 sisters would all bring chickens into our place and clean them & pluck them and share all they did ! Lots of great memories !!❤❤

[@christinej2358]

Yes, summer came in quick and fast, for sure. Working in the garden is very therapeutic. It takes time for the reality of everything that’s happened to sink in. Every time you talk about where your going to a book signing I ask my husband how far is it from us. Im hoping you’ll get somewhere closer than a four hour drive from me. I’m still hoping y’all will come to our side of the state. Keeping you all in my prayers.

I love reading about days gone by, but I am so happy to be alive today and have air conditioning! I would have been miserable, cranky and I can’t imagine what my hair would look like!

[@rhondalampe6676]

You all are so humble. Really enjoy your talks together . Just love ❤️ Granny too.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you for the kind words!

[@beverlybenson9981]

You two are so cute together. ❤ My husband and I will be married 58 years in September. We always have fun just being together in whatever we do. Drumsticks are our favorite novelty treats. 😁

[@pattipowell8750]

You two Crack me up. I really enjoy the end of your videos when you and Matt just sit and talk. The tomato poses were hilarious today. 😂

[@denisechristy-everett8606]

Matt you are like my husband. Can’t take the heat and humidity anymore, so we move 13 years ago to the coast of Oregon from the Central Valley of California. Our high is 59 today and sunny 😊 it’s 108 where we used to live. 🥵

[@billiep4338]

Nice video ❤Garden looks great. Build you a camper & you could do adventure videos. Yoda went ahead of Ms.Cindy to greet her as got to the pearly gates.❤

[@LuwanaWard1974]

The Heat and humidity have finally came to East Tennessee too. I think you should get you a pop up camper we had one and bought a camper we call it sissy camping now. My brother lives in Huntsville Alabama and I live in East Tennessee and we meet in Tellico Plains and drive up to Indian Boundary Campground and camp 3-4 times a year we just relax and do so fishing it’s so peaceful up there ❤

[@josiecardenas4440]

Thank you both for sharing love to watch and listening to you both talk . Sure do miss my mom and dad . Stay safe God bless you all

[@ts-eu6mp]

Thanks for news of Yoda. I had been wondering and wondering for a while now. Kind of amazing, really, that happening. A sad but good outcome for them both and what timing!
