I had a “thanksgiving” baby yesterday. She was supposed to have been born on Christmas but she couldn’t wait for Thanksgiving

[@debrawilliams9982]

Congratulations

[@tinasan3870]

Congrats !

[@rachelharris725]

🎊 Congratulations!

[@jrubybowman]

Wow that is awesome! Congratulations and welcome to the new little lady!!!

[@farangarris2598]

Congrats to you and baby. I had my son on thanksgiving day nov22,1979. I had just taken the turkey out of the oven, with the whole family showing up at the same time.

[@amel2784]

Ron and Justine would have been very valuable individuals and members of any community back in the day. They have such excellent skills and calm, kindly but strong personalities.

[@autumnsun7379]

My word! What doesn't Ron do?!?! He cooks, builds, crafts, plays drums!!!! He's so multi-talented!!!!!

[@DavidWvu]

And a professional photographer too.

[@rachelharris725]

Ever heard of Bubble and Squeak? It's a British thing. It's usually Monday nights dinner using the Sunday roast leftovers. You mix the leftover veggies such carrots, cabbage, celery, onion, in to the mashed potatoes. Season as desired and form into patties. Dredge in flour and fry in a skillet with a bit of oil. Usually served with leftover roast or fried sausage. I was raised by my English grandmother so practically grew up on it. This reminds me of that.

[@rae1957tn]

There’s a lady on YT that just showed how she makes it. She enjoys showing life in the 40 & 50’s .

[@rachelharris725]

@@rae1957tn oh cool I'd love a link. My granny was ww2 war bride, married my East Texas redneck grandfather. Made for an interesting combination growing up. It really messed up my accent. 🤣

What memories… I grew up having bubble and squeak on a Monday after a roast dinner on a Sunday!❤

[@bcarolynn]

Wow, thank you for sharing. That sounds really wonderful.

Justine you are such a good cook love watching you doing the old time meals and I love watching when you and Ron are talking us through the video bless you both love from the U.K.🇬🇧❤️❤️

I bowed my head and prayed with you guys thank you for that it felt great.

Save the duck fat.. makes lovely crispy potatoes.. Happy Holidays to you both ❤❤

My wife was telling me "that young man Ron is so talented. He does woodwork, builds things, a photographer. He's open and honest. Is there anything he can't do?

Thankyou for the kind compliments!! Ron can't (wont) do deep sea welding 🙂.

I live in the middle Georgia area. Back in the 90s, in April, we were having a typical gorgeous spring day. Temps were in the mid to upper 70s and peach trees were in full bloom. That evening the wind began to blow and the temperature dropped drastically. By morning we were in a full-blown blizzard! Something I'd never seen. We ended up with about 3 inches of snow! And no peaches that year.

[@colinthiel1283]

Georgia moment

[@mistyviolet3825]

WOWWWWWWWW WOW 😮 WOW 😮

[@shell-belly]

I’m for northwest Ga and I remember the “Blizzard of 93” 😂 that’s why we all freak out and run to the grocery store when it calls for a little snow. We are all still traumatized by going to bed that night with a few flurry’s and waking up the next morning to a blizzard overnight. Most people were stuck in the homes for weeks without food, warmth etc. Where I am located we ended up with 3-5 foot of snow. It was insane!!

[@jessiefrye3045]

It's precious and wonderful to see and hear yall say the Blessing. I bowed my head and agreed with you.

[@brycat61]

The way you prepared and served the duck reminded me of how the farmers in the south of france cook and serve roast duck it looks so good!

[@davidcox3076]

It's a very simple, rustic dish. Perfect for farmhouse tables anywhere.

[@Boone22]

I love those ornaments. What a great way to teach children of our fore fathers.

[@bellabailey1183]

Omg!! The scene with Ron following thru the roof was so unexpected. It was an lol moment for ne!

[@glennda1939]

You both are the sweetest couple! God bless!

[@keahithefieryone8513]

Mom always stuffed her duck with bread, not to be eaten, but to absorb the oil and made stuffing on the side

[@marieleopold1625]

SWEETEST Couple EVER! This was a VERY interesting and informative vid! Thanks so much 4 sharing it with us! Terrible history about 'chimney sweeps'! Find it interesting how George Washington liked hot chocolate in the morning. A man of SUCH accomplishments...do we dare begrudge him that? LOL! I think it was a good idea really, as it gave the calories needed to take on the lifestyle he lead. Yes, chocolate in the morning! This show proves the 'strength' of a duck...small but 'mighty'! Kinda like Justine eh? Ron will be quick to chime in...'Oh Yeah!' Nice job on the spoon rack Ron! The talents U BOTH have and share will make your homestead a wonderful place...your present home is a fine example of what is to come. I simply don't know how U have the time to get at your land. The food looks just soOOOoo dee-licious! Take care dear ones. Health and God Bless! P.S. Yes, 'Peter and Catherine' R a part of our true treasures in the faaaaar north! His 'wee bits of history' enrich us all! :)

[@connierackel3639]

Really sorry you had spoons stolen. Also hate hearing about the fowl words and feeling given to your friends. But thank goodness it's only a few hateful people.and doesn't speak for the majority. I love your blog. I learn so much. I love history.

[@kathymoll7010]

So happy you both met each other. Justine you needed a man with a healthy appetite and Ron you are one lucky man. Looks delicious ❣

[@mistyviolet3825]

WOW WOW!!!! My daughter and I had roasted crispy duck at a Taiwanese restaurant on thanksgiving 2022!!!❤🇺🇸💪🏻🇺🇸🙏🏻 (With all of its delicious rich juices in steamed rice and sautéed eggplants!) WOW!!!!!! ❤heart❤!

[@myraarquitt9123]

I was taught to cut duck, turkey or chicken on a cutting board then place the meat on a serving platter. This made it easier to control while you cut. No chance of breaking your beautiful plate. Those potatoes look great & delicious. I love watching you cook.

[@mdrummer4063]

You two are just the cutest!

[@AK27inAZ]

This chew & chat was extra comedic! Loved it! 🤣

[@frontierpatriot]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@lorriephillips653]

I absolutely love the Christmas tree ornaments!! You are so sweet together and make me and my husband smile and laugh. Have a warm and blessed Thanksgiving!

[@myidentityisinjesus8880]

I'd love to see a Christmas Tree in you home 🎄💓

[@mammahasspoken]

The problem you were having with carving the duck had to do with it being cooked upside down and then, served upside down. The breast needed to be on the top. That would have made it easier to cut the meat off of the breast.

[@frontierpatriot]

Good eye!

[@sharonharrison3611]

I love you guys. You have the best videos on KZbin. You're both so talented and sweet. Thankyou for all the history lessons. ❤️💙

Wow, Ron, you're a very talented at making things out of wood. Justine is very lucky❤

[@rdbrnr86gt]

Great stuff you two. Did Ron really fall THROUGH the roof!?! That had to hurt a bit. I would say you should have a period correct Christmas tree (without stuff that will set it on fire.) The food here looks so amazing! I really enjoy the historical references and education here too. I can imagine it would be fun to have a period correct day/supper with you two.

[@margiemorales3297]

Good block, Ron. I was expecting her to slap you in the face with that goose wing she was pulling on! Hilarious. A+ on that dinner, Justine. The goose was beautiful, and the potato balls...my oh my oh my! Many blessings to you!

[@lfwagh4679]

You two are just too adorable. Love you both and your channel.

[@peggyperk1231]

loved this! Cant wait to make the potato balls. and on a side note, being in retail, I have had one or two people like that where you cant please them no matter what you do. We cannot let the squeaky wheel get the grease. Keep on being the beautiful couple that you are and spread the kindness.

[@davidoswald5749]

I tell you, they always make food that really sticks to your belly! I hope you 2 have a good holiday season here's to a great 2023!

[@chuckmoseley1028]

Those potato balls look amazing! I wish I could have a photo done. I'll bet you're using Good old St. LINK...🎅

[@jerrihadding2534]

I am still laughing. “A Dorn in his butt!” I lived in Germany for 10 years, so I do speak German. And if I wasn’t loving you before, which I was (!), your recommendation for “Outlander” would have won me over entirely! Bless you both!! ❤️🙏 While I lived in Germany we always had candles on our Christmas tree. Extraordinary. The tricks to safety are ALWAYS having a person observing the lit candles ready to jump up and blow a candle out when it got low and also having a bucket of water in reach. In ten years I never experienced even a minimal “emergency”. I HIGHLY recommend doing this at least once, even for five minutes. MAGIC! ❤️

[@maryathey280]

You two are great - good sense of humors and beautiful people from the heart. I had duck once when I was child - we lived in Maryland and my parents to me to a real nice restaurant in Baltimore and was served duck - very greasy but was very good also from what I can remember. Love your show - need to watch Early American to watch the cooking of the meals. Looking forward to Thanksgiving video.

[@margiemorales3297]

Excellent drumming, Ron and friend. My daughter used to be in drum line in H.S. I've always loved the sound of marching drums. Thanks for showing us. 🍃🍂

[@dmittie9761]

If my vote counts, I vote for a Christmas tree for you two, it doesn't have to be anything grand but you were gifted those wonderful colonial ornaments and it would be awesome to see them all displayed. I'm definitely going to try out those potato balls that Justine made... they looked delicious!! Wishing you both a Happy Thanksgiving! 🥰🥰🦃

[@queenlioness7056]

Interesting - I never knew that was how the chimney was swept back then and it didn't have to cost you $250. I learned something new. You need a much sturdier fork, made of iron and maybe a sharp knife for carving. I've never seen anyone fight with their bird while eating before. Don't get hurt in the process. Ron, please be careful being on the roof and wear a mask when cleaning the chimney. That sounds like a death sentence doing chimney sweeping. Poor children. I am not judging Ron. I can tell that bird is tough to dismantle. Cool Christmas ornaments. Thank you for sharing so much with us. Have a Happy Thanksgiving!

[@spankyham9607]

I had orange duck at a Vietnamese restaurant and I liked it a lot. It was tasty and juicy. I felt kind of bad for the tree, it had to be questioning it's existence in life being shoved down a Chimney

I love you two! Thank you for giving me a smile today! I needed that so much! I have a recipe hint for you Justine, before you roast the Duck my great grandmother who was all French very Parisian , she would boil the duck to get the fat and Game taste out too.then she would roast it! Much less fatty, save the fat for other purposes. The potato balls with nutmeg is French put a bit of cracked pepper. I am 79 now that grand mama lived I. The 1800 ‘s Love always Harriette Hillary Marrinier Hollins😊🦆🥰👍🏻

Sorry for your stolen spoons. People can be very disappointing. Love you guys. I would like to buy some of them.

I don't understand how I missed this episode, wierd, never tried duck before-is it good? Maybe some day I'll try cooking one 😆 no judging from me , Ron on the carving 🤔 handmade gifts mean so much more to me, those ornaments are so awesome and sentimental, nice job

[@aceventura3837]

With duck you have to render the fat the best way to do that is with the oven on moderate to low place the duck on a rack in a roasting pan fill the pan half way with booing water and place in an oven for about two hours. Then crank up the heat to achieve crispier skin

[@mymacintyre]

LOVE Outlander!! I started reading the books in the early 1990's. I love Loughaire (Fergus' wife). All the actors do a fabulous job. Love the tv series but the books are so much more. Have you read the books?

[@frankiejwilliamson8678]

To keep the grease down on a duck or opossum boil it first for about a minute diiscard that water and repeat the process two more times; then bake as normal. This was my great great grandmother's method and she got it from her grandmother and so.
