You are welcome from Raleigh NC !!!
Is your cookbook sold out? Or would I need to request it in the etsy shop?
@@tracydavis3919 I just added more 😊
Happy New Year to you all!! Can't wait to meet the grandbabies in this new year! Best to you all - ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Sometimes I don't know how to take Matt, he has some of the funniest expressions on his face, and the nicest comments come out. He's a true Appalachia man!
We never had collards growing up. My dad grew a mix of turnip greens and mustard greens in the garden, so that is what we always ate all through the fall and winter. We did have the black-eyed peas, greens, pork and cornbread for New Years.
“This is the best dessert I’ve ever eaten”
I’ve watched your channel for years now and I’ve never seen your husband so excited about something.
😊
Matt is like a little kid with candy about that bread. Hes so funny. Its great to see somebody enjoy something so much. 💙
And eyeing up Katie's piece too 😅
Alishabohnert, my mom's neurologist, told Mommy and I that his family (greeks) had cooked bone broth for many generations. After it cooled and gelled, it would be cut into small squares. They would eat a small square every day. It was good for the joints. Something I learned from someone so much wiser.
Fascinating! Thank you 😊
Thank you for allowing us to visit with you today. I’ve enjoyed it so much! Everyday life in your home is such a blessing. Thank you for the opportunity to share with you, Matt and Katie.
You are so welcome! Thank you!!
Traditional Christian teaching is to put your tree up on Christmas Eve and to leave it up until the celebration of Purification of Mary and the Presentation of the Child Jesus in the Temple on February' 2nd,
Forty days.
@@howardheminger287How is that traditional Christian teaching?
I am beyond thrilled that I received your cookbook as a gift from my niece for Christmas. With your signature! I cried.
Wow, thank you! I'm so glad you like it 😊
Pennys, money, and wisdom! Every year my grandparents made black eyed peas, collard greens, and cracklin cornbread
I find that the Instant Pot is the best way to make broth. The secret is to barely cover the bones with water and cook on low pressure for 1.5-2 hours. That way the gelatin isn't destroyed and you get that nice gel when it cools.
Great tip! Thank you 😊
“Well, no wonder we’ve always been poor!” Granny has a great sense of humor! Im behind on videos, trying to catch up. I just love your videos! Thank you for all of your hard work in making the. I grew up eating back eyed peas, rice, greens, hog bowels or ham.
I really enjoy watching you all, just like my husband and I living the simple life. No complications no worries just enjoying Gods blessings. Happy New Year to you all. Blessings ❤️🙏❤️
Tipper, I'm going to pray for y'all, for a New Year full of joy and blessing, fruitful gardens, healthy babies and a healthy Granny! Y'all are the best! Happy New Year!
Thank you Doug! We pray the same for you 😊
God bless us every one.
@@barbarasue7191 Thank you! God bless you in the coming year!
I laughed when you mentioned baking on New Years Day. My mother NEVER baked, cooked, cleaned or laundry on that day. Fear of being cursed to cook and clean all year long. We would have pork sausages and sour kraut on New Years Eve and leftovers or pork roast next day. Later years she started cooking Hoppin John. The orange bread looks amazing. I'm gonna have to make it. The three of you look so happy and peaceful.
I don't know if I've ever mentioned this, but my Mom had a recipe when she cooked down greens. She would cut small slivers of a white onion
(about a half a handful) and pre-cook about 3 or 4 slices of bacon (and of course saving the grease), and set that aside. Then she would cook down the greens until they are almost done and then throw in the onions, bacon with grease and some salt and pepper. Then the magic ingredient would be added which is balsamic vinegar. She would throw a few splashes of balsamic vinegar into the pot and mix it up well and cover it and simmer until all the ingredients mixed well and the greens were ready. I swear it was so good, you'd swear you'd gone to heaven. LOL
(And if you turned around you'd probably see Jesus standing behind you with a plate in his hand ready to get some too)! 😊 Just try it. You can thank me later.
Sounds delicious!❤
I ate the last two little tomatoes from my garden today. I picked all my tomatoes right before the first frost and brought them the house. All I did was set them the sunniest spot I could find and ate them as they ripened. Everybody knows that green tomatoes won't ripen unless they are starting to turn. Mine were green as a gourd but they ripened just fine.
Did you know that the tomatoes you see in the store that say "vine ripened" or "ripened on the vine" are picked green on the vine and gassed like most of the other ones. They are cluster tomatoes so are picked green in bunches then ripened in a gas chamber.
I'm glad yours lasted so long Papaw 😊
That dessert is so good Matt can’t sit still while he eats it. Lol Thank you for taking us along with you in 2023 and I look forward to more wonderful videos in 2024.
Lots of fun in this video, but Matt! Yess! Take your kid fishing before she can't! 😅
I'm 68 yrs. old and my family has been having that exact New Years Day meal my entire life. Thank you so much for enlightening Yankees(hopefully) about what good food really is! lol Happy New year to you and your family!
Tipper you just have the sweetest family in the world. I just watched your other daughter’s video grocery shopping she said they ran in to you as they arrived and you were leaving..lol. Happy New Year to all….
God bless the Presley Family !!! All the BEST in 2024!!!❤️❤️❤️
We had black eyed peas with ham hocks in them, cabbage with ham hock in it, pork roast and cornbread for New Year’s Day. Was so good! Now that my Hubby is retired, he took 4 of our grandsons fishing today and they had a great time. He is enjoying it but is still getting used to not having to rush everything he does like he did when he was still working. Y’all have a wonderful week. Hugs from the southeast coast of Florida 😎🦩🌞🦩😎
That is wonderful 😊
Wishing everyone a joyful New Year! May the upcoming year bring prosperity and much needed peace to all.
Thank you!!
Growing up, we always had cabbage and corned beef on New Years Day. Grandma always put a silver coin in the pot while cooking to bring wealth for the new year.
My Mother used to put a sheet under the Christmas tree and as she was taking the ornaments off the needles would fall onto the sheet and then would lay the tree in the sheet and just drag it out the door. It made it much easier for her.
Great tip❤
Matt eats his black eyed peas the same way I do. Crumble up the corn bread and put the peas and some of the pot liquor on top. I also do the same with the greens and add a little hot reliish of pickled jalapeno juice over the top. YUM YUM! Sure looks good!
The dinner looked amazing. We've always had cabbage and black eyed peas with pork and corn bread. Some people would put a dime in the cabbage pot and whoever scooped it out was the one who would have the money all year, or so they would say, I guess for big gatherings, we never did that. I heard and tried a new folklore tradition this year, they say at the stroke of midnight to open your door to let the old year out and the new year in. I did that but mainly to let my cat out...lol. I love the amazing food we've always enjoyed in KY, TN and NC, but I guess I'm partial to it. Happy New Year to you all!! I wish you many blessings, health and happiness. ❤🧡💚💜
My family’s not from the south, but my mom always had the tradition of black-eyed peas on new year’s.
The orange bread looks so good! I’m going to have to try it.
A tradition I’ve heard of is to leave your door open, so the bad of the old year can go out and the good of the new can come in. My mom always had a 24 hour candle that she would leave lit.
I had never heard of the New Years Day food tradition until I was grown and married. We ate so many black-eyed peas growing up, that I don’t even like the smell of them cooking anymore. Our typical supper was cornbread, some kind of potatoes, and beans for supper. We were really poor and that was all we could afford. We had meat sometimes on Sunday after church. We didn’t think anything about it, that was just the way things were in our family. I thought people who ate meat for supper every day were rich.
All of you are going to have a Great New Year. Especially when them Grandson's get here.
We always have cabbage, carrots, onions and very small potatoes steamed in a big steamer pot.put in carrots first and let them start steaming…then add the cabbage wedges set up on their end then add the small potatoes, onions and steam until fork tender, then add a can of corn beef in the middle of the pot…you will be putting the beef on just the ends of the cabbage…we drop a quarter well washed in the water for good luck all year…we have corn bread, raw veggies, raw onion, and a big blackberry cake with Carmel iceing with vanilla ice cream.
Tipper your sweet home built by Pap and Matt. ❤ worth millions of specials that money cannot buy. Now your Grand Babes living the life. Being a Grand parent is such a blessing. I'm Mamoo of twins Girl and Boy that are 15. Grand daughter 7 and grandson 3. Joyous life ❤
Concerning apples: my partner loves to nosh on frozen apple pieces. We get a nice bunch of them on sale; I then cut them up into bite-size pieces, toss them in a bag, into the freezer they go. He discovered he really likes frozen fruits when I once suggested he freeze, then eat, some green grapes we got last summer.
MATT! You raised your daughters right, sir! Katie was talking, and she does not talk with her mouth full! Let her talk and hold her bread! 🤣😂
You could probably make a few of those breads and freeze them.
There is a big difference between poor and broke. Poor is a state of mind and being broke is a state of being. Love orange rolls!
Very true 😊 Thank you 😊
I've had the traditional new years day dinner all my life and I continue to make it.
Growing up in E. Texas we had cabbage, black eye peas, pot roast, baked sweet potatoes and cornbread on New Years's day.
Happy 2024 Pressley Family! I hope y'all enjoy a year of blessings!
That’s a nice looking meal. My mom would always cook a pork roast, black eyed peas and greens on New Year’s Day. I thought Matt was about to do the happy dance over that dessert. Hope you do get some snow. I wouldn’t mind a little in our part of NC. Looking forward to seeing those sweet grand babies. Praying your entire family has a healthy, happy and joyous new year. God bless y’all! 😀❤️
Cooking on a woodstove is such a pleasure. Sometimes I think I was born 100 years too late. Although, if I HAD to cook over wood heat at every meal, I might feel different about modern appliances.
I feel the same way Roland 😊
We had pork spare ribs and sauerkraut, black eyed peas, cornbread, and Napa cabbage. Happy New Year!
Yum 😊
I would wrap your Xmas tree in a sheet and drag out on the porch before removing decorations and remove them outside. I almost burnt up my vacuum one year from all the needles that fell off. Just an ideal!
Great idea!
Happy New Year! You saying that Matt likes to put vinegar on his greens made me think of my daddy. He would put up peppers by putting them in a jar and pouring almost boiling vinegar over them . He would pour the vinegar over beans or greens or just about anything.
So great you still have greens growing! I love mustard greens the best, too.
I grew up with that tradition. Black eyed peas with rice called hopping johns.
Thank you for watching 😊
Wishing your entire family a very happy and prosperous 2024. And the same for all of your subscribers. And special prayers for Granny, and Katie and Corie, and the little ones on the way!
Hey Matt...guess I was thinking like you!! I thought, I need to go hunting...so I did!! Brought home a nice deer!! SO, I hope I'll be able to hunt all year..in some manner.
My mom always had a live tree and kept a tarp in her Christmas decorations. After everything was off the tree, she'd spread the tarp under one side of the tree. Then lay the tree over on it and just wrap it up. Oh my, I worked and did laundry on the 1st. Guess I'm done for.
Happy News Years Y'all forgot the fried Taters, 😋Yum! May All Your Dreams come true in the New year 👌Lots of peace🙏
As I was growing up my mother waited to get the Christmas decorations down to celebrate Three King's Day, when I got married I kept up the tradition now my children and grandchildren do the same, I have three Christmas trees but in my living room I have a skinny tree that I leave up all year and decorated it for every holiday of the year ❤
That "tall dark haired man" crossing the threashhold originated in Scotland. It makes sense that survived in your area because you all had many Scottish settlers. Where I grew up up north we never heard it.
I was born and raised in Central Florida. My Mama always did black eyed peas with bacon or ham, mustard greens and cornbread. It was always a tradition. She also said whatever you did on New Year's Day you would do all year long.
Love that 😊
@@CelebratingAppalachia your channel brings me such joy and helps me remember things from my growing up years.
@@lauraleebaird9729 😊 You are so kind! Thank you!
Happy Newyear Pressley family. Your meal looked delicious and that orange loaf YUMMY
Happy new year!! Thank you 😊
Growing up my mamas family was poor. They would put their tree up on Christmas Eve and it would stay up until spring. They would only enjoy it Christmas Day. The reason was it went up in a room that didn’t get heat and they would work to get heat to that room Christmas Eve and day and after that they would close it up and it would stay closed up until the weather got warmer. She said there wouldn’t be anything left but the trunk lol
Pork spare ribs, black-eyed peas, cornbread, and kale was our New Year’s dinner. We put pepper sauce (hot peppers bottled with vinegar) on our greens. Leftovers for dinner tonight was the peas, kale, cornbread, home fries, fried ham slices, and cornbread with a slice of onion. 😋
Yum!!
My grandma had a few..dont take your tree down before New Year’s Day or you’ll have a death in the family and you cook cabbage wash a quarter real well and put it in the pot of cabbage and who ever gets the quarter has good luck all year
❤Tipper Matt & Katie!! HAPPY NEW YEAR🎉 I Enjoyed the Time we Spent Together Each Time I watch one of Your Videos.. 😂That remark You told about Granny was Soo Funny to Me.. When My Mom was Still Alive we would Eat Blackeyed Peas, Joel meat(fried) & Potatoes..don't remember us doing anything green ( if we did it would have been Spinach or Lettuce salad. Her & My Dad ate Poke Greens that She & My Aunt Picked by the Creek when I was growing up.. Tell Granny IT Never made Us Rich. 😂 Matt I would be up early Everyday to Grate Orange peel if I got a loaf of that Orange Bread..It Looks SO Delicious! Katie, March will be here to fast & You will be a Busy Little Momma ❤ can't wait to See Him. 🎉❤ GOD BLESS YOU ALL THERE ALWAYS and GOODNIGHT FOR NOW!!
The food 😋 always looks so delicious ❤great videos thanks 😊
Thank you 😊
I grew up with black eyed peas on New Years, but as an adult I like to make 15 bean soup (there's black eyed peas in it) and I use vegetable broth in my soup along with ham and onions. So good. I like biscuits with mine instead of cornbread. Happy New Year to everybody!
Happy New Year! 2024 is here with a brand new garden year to plan! Looking forward to seeing your garden through the seasons and to the babies!!!
Blessings,
Allison 🌱
I saw several people fishing and fly fishing this afternoon-go for it Matt and Katie! All good things to you and your family in 2024!
I love celebrating Appalachia!! I put it on my channel. You are a special family that is keeping Our culture Alive. Thank you. You have no idea how much it means to some up in our hills that you are keeping the culture and knowledge alive. I know, bc My family lives in Maggie, Haywood county, and i spread and show your videos!!!
Nice to see everyone eating a meal together.
May the Lord bless you mightly in 2024.❤
Thank you!
Happy New Year y'all ❣️
Tipper you are a true southern lady! I never fail to notice how you always feed Matt first! That's so sweet.
I learned of the New Year food tradition when I was 17. Went to my friend's house and her mom had cooked, been cooking it ever since. I cooked a pork roast this year with some Korean BBQ rub. It was so tender and yummy 😋.
Anyway, again Happy New Year, looking forward to seeing what y'all got for us in 2024❣️
Beef broth is supposed to be the best for you. Our local meat processor sells the beef bones pretty cheap. Good for drinking or a soup base. You might try asking your grocery store if they have any in the back. 🤠😻
Blessings to you all in 2024 and beyond!
Happy New Year! It touched my heart how Matt spoke to Katie about him taking her fishing.
2024 is going to be a wildly beautiful year for your whole family. ❤️
Growing up my mother always had corn beef, cabbage & black eyed peas on New Year’s Day.
I grew up with my mom making the traditional New Year’s meal. Of course, I wouldn’t eat it!😂 Now, however, I love it! I did the peas, the collard greens recipe from a restaurant in Cary called Lucky 32, cheddar chive corn muffins, and hoisin sticky ribs. For dessert, a pear / apple crisp to use up all that Christmas fruit.
Your meal looks delicious! Can’t wait to make your orange bread! Hope 2024 brings you blessings and happiness!
Happy New Year!🎆 ❤
Wishing you and family many blessings in 2024 and beyond. I so love your channel.
Hey Tipper, thank you for the video. I had me my black-eyed peas with a ham bone and collards yesterday. I like my pot liquor like Matt, a little on the vinegar side and with hot sauce. I appreciate and love y'all. And Katie is as cute as a button!
Thank you Tony 😊
Health and happiness to you and your family for 2024.
Happy New Year, Presley family ! I’m loving Matt’s pot lid remover . Thanks for sharing the Orange Pull Apart Bread recipe . I plan to make it for my family this weekend when we all get together for family dinner . Congratulations on becoming grandparents . I have 5 and it is absolutely this best . Looking forward to your next video .
Matt is so excited to have his special desert! My mouth is watering just looking at it! LOL "Best stuff ever!"
I Love how Matt has a Great Appetite, and is so Kind Tipper. Appreciate All of U all for being so Kind and Humble. It is Great to see. Food looks so good. Thank u Guys for sharing such a Rich History and Loving Family, as Always Keep it Pushing!
Love this! The orange bread looks delicious! Out typical New Year meal here in western PA, in the foothills of the Appalachians... Sauerkraut cooked with pork roast and keilbasa! Over mashed potatoes! Yum! Thanks for sharing your meal and day with us!
Happy New Year to your beautiful family! We are growing turnip greens and kale so I mixed those together and cooked them in Turkey broth. I have never done that before but it was so good! I'm so excited to spend 2024 with you family and I can't hardley wait til those precious babies get here! Love y'all so much Tipper!
My Mom mixed Collards, Turnip and Mustard Greens all in the pot with a ham hock. I like collards by themselves. We sprinkled the juice from Trappley’s Vinegar Peppers on them. That and cornbread and fried potatoes were a dinner for us. Makes me hungry!
when you were patting out the dough, I thought what beautiful cinnamon rolls that dough would make and no doubt tasty. Congrats on being Grandparents soon. I have one grandson and he will be 4 on Feb 6. I am telling you that it is a level of joy that I cannot explain. An entirely new level of love as well. Prayers for healthy deliveries for the twins.
You’ve really started the New Year just right! The goodies on your plates show that! I remember when my wonderful mother fixed meals like yours and they are just about the best meals ever! I wish each of you a wonderful new year and with the sweetness you have to look forward to, I’m sure you will be very blessed! ❤
Happy New Year 🎈. We love collard greens around here. We had collard greens, black eye peas, corn bread and side meat. I put collagen in my coffee every morning, can’t taste it at all. Y’all are going to have an exciting year ahead! God bless and prayers for granny 🙏🏻
Oh my Tipper, i hope you aren't getting sick, you sound sorta breathless and tired. I can't wait to try the orange peel bread. Blessings for a wonderful new year.
That meal sound so tasty! We has turnip greens, black eyed peas, mashed potatoes, cornbread and tenderized deer steak with gravy.That is our tradition. I forgot the sweet tea this year though! I remembered just as I was about to be done.
Yum!
I wish I was there too. Katie tears up so easily now. I'm so excited to see the babies this year. ❤
Very funny about what Granny said about the black-eye peas. The old Scottish thing to do is actually pay, lightly, a young dark-haired man to come to your door on New Year's Day. Nice you still had some mustard greens in the garden. Blessings to all in 2024.
FYI: spread a flat sheet on the floor and lay your Christmas tree down on it and pull up the sides to take out tree without that big mess🙂👍🏻✌🏻🌻🌻🌻
What a wonderful New Year's Day tradition. Thank you for taking us along. Your orange bread looks delicious and I haven't had black-eyed peas since my dad passed away - they were one of his favorites.
I just love your whole family. You guys are the sweetest. Good bless.
Thank you so much!
Matt made me LOL when he said you should make the bread in March and that he'd grate the orange peel. 😂 He loves that bread! It looks delicious, Tipper.😊
Lol. Make your honey the bread. He's going to grate. God bless . . .
Happy New Years to you folks as well...we love you folks and very greatful you all are here...Thank You folks for everything you do on here and GOD BLESS and keep everyone safe and well
I love seeing Matt enjoy his orange bread! I've always loved cooking for someone who appreciates good food like that! My family always eats peas, greens, cornbread, fried hog jowl and fried pork chops on New Years Day.. also I never wash clothes! My grandmother always said you'd wash someone out of your life. She's been gone many years.. but things she said stays with me. I'm in North Alabama and our lives are very similar. Only you live in such a magical, beautiful place. I love the mountains. Thank you for your well wishes for the coming year..I wish the same for you&your precious family Tipper.
Happy New Year! 🎉
My grandmother always said the same thing
Love the pot liquor from the black eye peas, we had green tomato pickles this year. Curly mustard and pork ribs . Corn bread. So yummy. Sweet tater pie from some white taters my neighbor gave us. So bless we are. Thank you and your family ,for sharing your lives with us. Looking forward to 2024 .May God bless y'all,Granny and all the viewers too.Happy 2024❤🎉😊
Dessert looks delicious!! Happy New Year!!
My family always cooked black eyed peas with corn. I still cook them but my hubby never wanted to try them until this year. He had a spoonful and he said he didn’t like them lol. May you be Blessed with a Happy New Year.
Hi everyone, hope to find you all well. I keep granny in my prayers, and all of you. leave it to sweet Katie to name her kitty something nobody can spell. I'm happy to see that everyone had a wonderful Christmas. God bless.
Thank you Karen 😊
Happy 2024! Thanks for sharing your day - I want a piece of that orange bread! We've never had a real traditional meal for the 1st, when I was living at home we had Chinese food for New Year's eve. My husband and I usually have shrimp cocktail, various cheeses and crackers, fruit, etc. And I made another pecan pie from the great pecan harvest my MIL had this year. Here's to a happy year ahead!
Hi Tipper,Matt,Katie and Corie &Austin, I hope Y'all have a Blessed and Happy New Year!!😊❤🙏🏻🎉
I grew up eating black eyed peas, cooked cabbage, and pork ( we usually do a polish sausage now) every New Year’s Day. My little grandsons I raise don’t like the black eyed peas, and lately have turned their noses up to the cabbage, so they had to eat a piece of each ( they like the sausage) and then they ate mixed vegetables and rolls with the meat.
