It is quite honestly amazing the foods for state banquets and 'normal' dining, which it was not, and the preparation et al. My goodness I think I may say she was a Bon Viveur too, along with yourself. xxx

    Aaahh! Just a quiet moment with you is a balm to the soul. I also don't mind ironing (or doing the dishes by hand). It is soothing and, as you say, an opportunity to reflect and appreciate a lovely linen or piece of china. My favorite comfort food is small white beans and ham. The seasoning may vary depending on my mood. Usually some sauteed onion, maybe some chopped tomatoes or just some black pepper. Cornbread of course! I have an affinity for Jiffy cornbread muffins. This is a meal that is just right for a meal for one or two when made in smaller portions. Thank you for sharing your chili recipe. Blessings!

    Tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches. In the Summer grilled cheese and fresh tomatoes from the garden. Also macaroni and cheese and fried fishstcks or breaded shrimp with cocktail sauce. I only drink hot cocoa in the Winter. In the Summer it’s lemonade.

    Dear Kevin, My favorite dish for cold days is homemade chicken soup! I will try your cornbread recipe. I never imagined how relaxing it would be to watch someone else iron their napkins or light a fire. I love it. Thank you!

    Kevin, I too find my “zen” in ironing napkins! I love cloth napkins, and am not a fan of paper ones either. It is a short-term goal type of a chore, that brings immediate gratification! Keep your wonderful, sweet and peaceful videos coming. You bring joy to so many of us!❤

    Buenas noches Sr. Jacobs, desde El Valle de lis Pedroches en Córdoba. Me siento identificada con usted cuando limpia y enciende la chimenea, yo tengo solo una y es pequeña, uso leña de encina y olivo y es muy reconfortante sentarse a escuchar el chisporroteo del fuego
    Mi comida favorita de invierno se llama Cocido, se hace con garbanzos y diferentes tipos de carnes dependiendo de la zona , yo le pongo col y nabo y está muy rico con jamoncito ibérico de esta tierra
    Muchas gracias me relaja verle y su espíritu tranquilo me anima a mirarle
    Un saludo afectuoso

    Kevin, you make your cornbread just exactly like my dear grandmother. She’s been gone many, many years but her memory never leaves me. I can still remember the taste of her chicken stuffing. Funny, our childhood memories. Also, she had a Lilacs bush outside her bedroom window that smelled so good. That is my favorite flower today at 85. She took wonderful care of me as a child. She raised me with a great set of moral values. You don’t always know what you miss until it’s gone. Enjoy your hearty soup. Looks tasty.

    I'm originally from Texas (moved away when the political temperature rose). This is a strange chili. I do love beans in my chili but not sugar. Still, chili is like barbecue sauce -- there are many versions people love. I was really looking forward to your Friday video. Need some calming comfort after this week's shock.

      @@littleogeechee223 The US are going back to the middle ages without existing in those days. And the beloved "uneducated" are feeding the billionaires. There are no nonpolitical decisions. Even the choice to calm yourself with one of these nice videos is one.
