The BEST Q&A Catherine's Plates Answers Your Questions

[@ohsusanna8042]

Love, love, 💘 you two! Not only have I gotten great recipes from your videos, but you, Catherine, have such a sweet and mild-mannered voice and way about you that I watch as a form of relaxation. It's lovely to know you two have been married 30 years and are still going strong. God bless!

Thank you for the kind words about my home. Growing up we had a houseboat on the Lake of the Ozarks so we spent summers down at the Lake. Good memories. Since I live in Missouri, I don’t spend time in Branson. Chuckle, I haven’t been to Branson since it became a tourist area! You know how it is, it’s right here so I’d rather go other places. Spent a lot of weekends floating on our beautiful crystal clear (and ice cold!) rivers. Lots to see and do in Missouri!

[@CatherinesPlates]

When we got to Branson, it's to use as a home base, we really don't do the touristy things, we go out and hike to waterfalls, and other interesting sites. We loved being in the Ozarks, we really enjoyed Jasper and the surrounding area.

[@phylliswurm9473]

Good Q and A, and blessings to you and family.

If you do get to Virginia, try to see the Blue Ridge Mountains. We loved them, and being from Missouri, we’ve seen the Ozark Mountains too, several times! I’m impressed how you set up your own videos, printing books, website, etc. I had no idea you’d been at it for only 6 years! You’re a real pro ! Thank you mostly for sharing all your wonderful recipes. Just love your whole family! God bless you all!

Hi Catherine! Nice to finally meet hubby. I liken him to "Thing" on the Adams Family since all we ever see is his hand sneaking food! It's very kind of hubby to do the dishes. You two are a great team!❤❤ Thanks for the recipes. I've made several of your recipes and really enjoy them. I love it when your son cooks with you too.

[@bobbiebarnes1017]

One of favorite video was when Thomas was helping and was trying to open cream cheese package he couldn't so he whipped out the pocket knife to open it. My husband would be lost without his pocket knife.😊
