47 years ago my then boyfriend & I both came down with the flu. I called my momma, crying because I felt so bad. Momma was a nurse & knew all the doctors in town. She called to get meds for me & then thought that if I was that sick that my boyfriend would be as sick, so she had them double all the prescriptions. We were so sick we couldn’t even take care of each other. An hour later here she comes with meds for both of us. We lived in the same apartment complex. I lived upstairs & he lived downstairs, so it was easy for her to drop off the meds & check on both of us. She was a life saver that day. So now he & I have been married 46 years. She loved him as much as I did. What a memory.
Well, that was the good ole days !, that she could call the doctors and get medicine. Can’t do that anymore. I was diagnosed with kidney stones back in spring . Awnt home, no medicine. I called in may to say I’m still not better. They said go to ER or walk in if I need to. The First available Dr appt was Nov 5. So here we are, I’m about to go see (if I don’t get a cancellation , that has happened before). You’ll die here in WNC, waiting on medical Care here. I was always taught the ER was for emergencies. Now, it’s a walk in clinic. The Walk in clinic here fills up for the day , when doors open. You sit all day and wait. Anyway- your story of the good ole days and knowing doctors ,made me think of that.
@@cumberlandquiltchic1 it also helped that she was the OR Supervisor & that I had grown up around all the doctors. The doctors also knew that I was in nursing school. You’re right that was the good old days & the benefit of small town life.
I was a new Christian and there was a flu demon going through our church, years ago, it was really bad. Being new I was so full of faith, I prayed and got healed. I’ve been sick since then but your flu story reminded me. God is great!
Say a prayer for the people of Valencia Spain. Death toll stands at 217 as of today. Flooding was just unimaginable. All that destruction in just a few short hours.
@@PellyjellyMom Thank you for your reply. Tipper has the best and most considerate community on TH-cam. I never read comments any more on other sites. It’s just sniping and backbiting. I think we could all take Tipper’s culinary recommendations ( « that’s how I like to do it but if you want to add less sugar or more spice go ahead »- never dictating what folk should or shouldn’t do) as ground rules on how to interact and carry on in life. Be well.
I’m a garlic lover! Happy y’all got some planted! Continuing to pray for storm damage victims! Love your sweet yard chats, I could listen all day long! God bless your precious family! 😀❤️🙏🏻🇺🇸
Matt was talking about the stores with the wooden floors and big barrels, I immediately got a picture in my mind of the old store in Little House in the Prairie. 😊 Loved that show so much and actually Little House book series.
My mother read every "Laura and Mary Book" there was to me and my little brother, in the middle 1950's before I started kindergarten. I just adored those books, and fully intended to grow up and live like Laura. It didn't quite happen that way, but the stories were always just beneath the surface and I still make lots of things from scratch. I've been making bread since I was 14. I grew up in the woods with no neighbors so it was easy to imagine I was living in the olden days. 🤗
I remember my grandmother going to a store back in the early sixties. I can remember the sound of those wood floors and the smell of the fabric. Thanks for that memory Matt. 😊
I remember the old JC Penney building in downtown Palo Alto in the late 50's. The old worn wooden floor boards creaked and groaned every step I took. It provided such nice sound effects. Now the stores all look practically identical.
In the major department stores in old time Cleveland Ohio, even the escalators were made of wood. I remember those scary steps so well. For a young child, the spaces between the slats seemed like they could suck you in.
I make a honey lemon ginger drink that I take daily. Been keeping me cold/flu free for a while now. I make bottles of it at a time and store them in the fridge. 2 shots a day keeps the critters away. Love your channel. Take care, be well.
The Binx story warmed my heart. ❤ and Iaughed so hard at the Paul story. 😅 Thanks for giving me a warm feeling and a laugh. Prayers and Love to all of you.
Oh my goodness! I had cystitis and it was soooo painful!! Matt, you’re a good husband, helping Tipper plant the garlic! Love how you two work together!
I drink at least once a week or when it gets cold and flu season more frequently, Apple Cider Vinegar with honey and hot green tea. Been doing this for about 5-6 years and have not been sick (thank God!).
What a pleasant day in the garden. 😊 I think you might enjoy shallots. I've started buying some little violet colored ones that are very convenient if you don't want to cut into a big old strong onion. Shallots are milder. Quick to cook. I could be wrong, but I think of them as another option between green opinions and big onions. And leeks! I hope you enjoy them. Leeks have been historically very important to Wales and Welsh people. The leek is their national vegetable.😊The leek and the daffodil are symbols of Wales. They are another oniony option on the spectrum. Not as strong, and very pleasant. It's Leeks and Potatoes that make good soup together. Enjoy.😁
Happy Monday! 😊 When I was young my parents made my brother and I finish our green beans, and we were so sick that night, I think even my dad was sick, probably a flu. Peaches that's a first I heard that, hee hee. I detest those terrible flus that incapacitate ya and feel like a mack truck hit ya. I pray for a good winter with minimal sicknesses. God bless y'all.❤
I know how Matt feels about the peach thing, I was at a party my senior year of high school and ate a bunch of Bugles. To this day I still can't eat those blame things, and that was 53 years ago. LOL
Hope you two recover fully soon. The previous owner of our present home planted garlic everywhere, she was a master gardener and said it was as a deterrent for voles, moles etc with her 1000's of bulbs and we do not ever see any of those critters. Our harvesting of the garlic cloves is in June, yet, as we are in the deep south, the leaves are coming up now and when they get about 12" in length I cut them about 8" long and dehydrate them and when dried I either crush them or will powder them. Cutting them has never deterred the growth or size of the cloves we harvest in June. I cut leaves about 2 times then leave to grow till June. The dehydrated is good with anything and although not as strong as the clove, it has nice taste. Thank you for all you and Matt are doing. In Joy
Mmm. The other day I was watching a video about stew, and someone suggested accompanying it with a mash of potatoes, leeks (fried in butter) and a dollop of seedy mustard. I ended up making both, the stew and the mash. It was delicious. 😋
Tipper, hope you and Matt get over your illness soon. I do love ❤️ garlic. I even pit it in my green beans along with some bacon 🥓 yes mam I am still praying for the people devastated by the storms.
I used to always watch your channel but I've been working so much I don't have the time anymore. I'm glad to see your still making videos. God Bless you!
Good Evening Tipper and Matt. Tipper, please let me say sincerely, I can no longer imagine a day without you. Your videos are the relaxing part of my day. Garlic scapes are something I live for each year. I can't grow enough, or buy enough of from the Farmers Market each year to provide me an entire year of supply. I make Fermented Salsa with them. Ever since the first time I made it, I cannot live without it or make it without garlic scapes. Great with eggs as well as Mexican food. I lacto ferment only a few things, which is so easy because I add about 1/2 the salt that would be needed plus 1/4 cup per quart of raw milk whey from making milk kefir or from making Greek Yogurt from straining regular yogurt. The only vegetables I lacto ferment are Salsa (no whey) grape tomatoes, garlic scapes, onion, jalapenos, Mexican oregano... I make 4 half gallons each year and keep in the back of the refrigerator. I lacto ferment sauerkraut every two years; young carrots; and Escabeche. I think Matt would love Escabeche. Very simple to make. You can ferment them or can them - whole or sliced jalapeno (or Serranos if he likes hotter), carrots, onion, half garlic cloves, a little Mexican oregano, a Bay Leaf or two, a few drops of oil, salt, and vinegar (per pint jar). When using the hotter Serranos some people will put a teaspoon or two of sugar per pint jar. Process for 15 minutes. Just pack the jars and pour over the vinegar, water, salt, sugar, and bay leaf that has been boiled a couple of minutes. [Mexican Oregano is very savory. Italian Oregano is minty and sweet, while Greek Oregano is between the two.] I love sardines and canned Mackerel. The way we have eaten them since I was a child is to layer onto a saltine - yellow mustard, 1/4 slice of sharp cheddar, a piece of ripe tomato, one sardine, a piece of hot onion, and a few drops of Chinese Rooster Sauce (red chili garlic sauce) or maybe a green olive for those who do not like the heat of the Rooster sauce. All in one bite! SO GOOD! This past year smoked sardines have been my favorite. Eaten over warm rice is good too. The day your Soup video came out I had made almost exactly the same thing a couple of days before. I will eat that soup any day of the year. I love being able to use up what I have left over in the refrigerator. I had fresh tomatoes and zucchini this time. I never put potatoes in my soup, but I always have home-canned stock. I always have 2 separate bags of bones in my freezer that I roast and make stock from. I love using chicken feet in my chicken broth and smoked turkey tails in my turkey, It is the time of year to make turkey broth again. My smoker burned up in a 2-second freak electrical fire, so I need to get another smoker. Well, planting garlic this week, too. I want to try your canned slaw this year too! Looking forward to your next video. Keeping you always in my prayers, as well as all of the flood victims. Blessings and have a wonderful week and Holiday Season coming up!
Love watching you both! Thank you for sharing all of these moments with use. Love the sardine comment.. scarfing sardines making Paul sick. Love it 😂❤.
Enjoyed your post tonight. Yes, we agree, as we get older the illnesses are harder to bounce back from. I excited to see the progress in the potato onions. I had not heard of them. We love the garlic and onions. Seem we have them with every meal.
I put a stake in the ground to help me remember where I put the garlic. Knocking wood for us with the pneumonia about and probably going after some elderberry too. My tomato of prize this year was a Kentucky Beef Yellow, so good. Cherrokee fallowed along but it was the best yellow year ever. prayers for strength and mercy, love one another
I got sick on homemade fermented dill pickles or "crock pickles" as my grandmother called them. It wasn't that the pickles were bad, it was just that I ate too much and made myself sick. That was 50 years ago, and to this day I still cannot abide the taste of dill in anything or any kind of dill pickles or dill relish. As a child, when we had a wood burning heater, my grand-dad put the ashes on the garden, and he would dump a bucket in one corner of the chicken house ever so often, because he said the ashes were good for the hens to dust bathe in. Said it helped keep the mites off of them. I don't know if that's actually true or not, but I do know as an adult, with my own chickens, when my DH would empty the ash bucket, it wouldn't be long until the hens would be in the pile taking themselves a good dust bath.
I did the same with my grandma's canned sweet pickles! She always let me eat whatever I wanted, and when I was 7 years old I ate a quart of those super sweet crunchy dark green gherkin pickles. It took me a while, but I loved them so much, I got my taste for them again! But I never ate anything with such abandon after that.
By coincidence we planted our garlic today as well. Music, and a red variety, both hardneck. I added bone meal to the raised beds, and some compost that's been laying around for years. This is our 2nd year with garlic, and we saved the largest bulbs for seed garlic for this year. It is so satisfying, and you don't have to deal with pestilence. Set it and forget it. ;)
Another great video and seeing you guys sitting there eating your Popsicles that is so cute and you guys got me hooked on those Popsicles and my favorite is the pineapple and strawberry❤
Glad you guys got your garlic and onion planted. I enjoyed the video. I’m glad you all are doing well and was talking about the past about being so sick. I’m still enjoying an Outshine ice cream now and then. Thanks again for introducing those to me, I really like them! HUGS! 🥰🙋🏻♀️✌️
God Bless you Ms Tipper you are the best. Thank you for sharing your video. Jesus loves you more than you will know. As always, sending prayers and blessings 🙌 🙏 ❤️
Hi you two. It's so true how our childhood memories color our preferences. My dad told me that peaches always made him feel good when he was a child, and gave him lots of energy. So I grew up loving peaches. Also I just love sardines, but realize not everyone can stand the smell. I always get a good brand of fresh wild caught sardines. I just came back from the mountains on a mission trip where I roomed with another lady and asked her if she minded if I brought sardines as one of my survival foods. To my delight, she loves sardines too and brought a whole bunch of them, as well. So, you could come with us on a mission trip Ms.Tipper. 😄Ha ha! Love you guys. Keep up the good work. Remain blessed, and continue to have fun together. I like it when all your family starts laughing together. My family does the same thing. 😊
I need to get out and plant my onions to over winter for next years harvest. I’d like to try them Egyptian Onions, but I’ve never seen any of the sets sold around any nurseries around me. I figure I’ll have to order them on line. Great conversation you two have for us to listen in by video. Thanks for letting us drop by! Praying continue for all hurricane survivors.🙏🏻
Just planted my garlic as well. I absolutely love sardines. I mainly eat the ones in olive oil. Hope you have a wonderful week. Thanks Tipper for sharing.
My grandpa took me a few times to the feed store in my hometown when I was real little. Old farmers hanging out in their striped overalls, dtinking coffee and sharing stories. I remember they had a coin operated peanut dispensing machine like a gumball/candy machine. It was funny bcuz the clear walls of the jar or bin were all greasy so it would look gross today but they were the best peanuts ever. Loved that place and it still exists to some extent today but not at all the same. Again with my grandpa, we would sit in his recliner and have a snack of sardines on soda crackers. I can remember the taste but I don't think I could stomach them anymore. Have a great week! 🍁🍂
I had the flu one time, I was so sick, I couldn't get out of bed for almost 2 weeks. I had high fevers, it's what caused my type 1 diabetes. I haven't missed a flu shot since. I love onions, but I hate garlic. I love you and Matt, working together.
Hope you feel better soon Tipper your dedication to your channel and to your family is amazing even when you’re sick you’re still doing what you have to do thank you for sharing this beautiful video🙏💕
Listening too y'all talk about raking leaves reminded me of what one of my very best old friends used to say..."if God didn't want them on the ground he wouldn't have made them fall off the tree". :)
I know you'll love the walking onions. Anyone who likes a green onion loves a walking onion. I started growing leeks this year and have been so pleased with how easy to grow they are. You do have to spend a long time in late winter starting from seed and they want a lot of fertilizer at that point, but after they're in the ground they can handle just about anything, including super hot dry weather. I still have some in the ground after two frosts. I chop them up and carmelize 5 or 6 at a time in my big pot with olive oil and some butter and salt. That gets put in quart bags in the freezer. I add it to mashed potatoes, bread recipes, soups, beans, almost any recipe I'd put onions in. Definitely worth the work to start the seeds. I use a tray with little compartments to take up less space- 150 or so.
We are fixing to plant garlic this week. I hope you all get a great harvest next summer. We have had the flu like that a couple times. Don't want that again. We have a few Popsicles we need to eat up. Yall have a blessed night
Hey Tipper, Hey Matt, it was the nice seeing you guys planting the garlic and onions. Two of my favorite things. Funny seeing Binks prowling around in the background. Maybe he's looking for Mushmouth? It's spitting a little rain this evening here in my part of Michigan, knocking more of the leaves off their branches. Stay healthy, God bless, and prayers to everybody.
I still remember when I was a kid, (probably 4th or 5th grade) and I was home sick from school. My Father ran the grain elevator across the street from our house and came home for lunch to check on me and fix me lunch. He fixed Cream of mushroom soup and from that day on I hated mushrooms because I got so sick on that. Lol I was probably 40 before I ate another mushroom.
8:00 That's certainly beat hauling it up there by hand. On rare occasion my back hurts just thinking about workin..... And now I want some homemade ice cream. Take care ya'll.
The popsicles are a pretty pop of color, matching the fall leaves and Matt's cap 🧡 Storms sometimes blow germs in that are alien to our area. Matt & Tipper we are in great company with Bob Vila from THIS OLD HOUSE, said 'Never rake the leaves, they supply great nourishment to the soil." I know I'm talking to the choir 😂
Once when I was a teen I was really sick. I was in bed over a week and I couldn't keep anything down. My little bro brought me oats he'd made himself chock full with raisins. 😆 It was probably more raisin than oats. Normally I'd have loved that, but there was no way I could eat it. It meant so much to me though. I've got the best brother! 🥰
Love the peace that comes from watching you and Matt plant outside. I can't have a garden where I'm at now, but have in the past. Throwing out coffee grounds, scraps, and eggshells seems wasteful to me. Can connect to you and Matt being so sick and relating it to food. We humans may heal physically before healing mentally. Stay healthy, enjoy the fall weather.
My Danish grandmother buttered the saltines before she put the sardine on top! I ate them because I was a 4 year old child. I had a wider palate back then. I seem to recall a raw beef with a raw egg on pumpernickel, too. But she said you had to grind your own beef to eat it raw. Yuck! 🤢😂
Beautiful Fall colors! My favorite memories as a young boy in Tennessee are filled with days in the woods during the Fall with the colors, the earthly smells of rain soaked leaves under foot, and the stillness of the woods around me. God is good!
Threw up after eating butterscotch crimpets and orange juice while driving from NJ to FL as a kid. I'm nearly 62 and havent yet and never will eat/drink either again!!!!!
In central Wisconsin, I planted garlic 3 weeks ago: two softneck varieties (silver rose & dixon inchelium) and 4 hardnecks (chesnok red, german hardy white, potosi pink, & musik). To help insulate them from the freezing cold, I topped them off with 5" of fluffy white pine needle mulch. I'm looking forward to making more garlic scape pesto next June. Yum! 😋
If you've never had leek and potato soup, you don't know what you're missing. Leeks also keep really well in the freezer. Just make sure to clean them good because dirt gets trapped in the leaves while they're growing. I planted potato onions last winter and they did good until the weather turned quickly from spring to summer and they died from the heat, so be sure you take them out before June and store them to have some for eating and some to replant in the fall.
Matt thinking he got sick from the peaches reminds me of a time I had the flu. I got sick during the night and the first thing that came up was the greens we'd had for dinner that night. I knew the greens didn't make me sick but it was about a year before I could bring myself to eat any greens. 😊
I LOVE sardines, Tipper. I use the same process for selecting tomato seeds that was the last way you mentioned. I spread them out on a paper towel and let them dry. At planting time I just tear off each seed and plant it. It works just great.
Enjoyed this. Great grand baby went home today. She and I aren't feeling well. We had a tornado last night. My street no damage . Just tree limbs down. A chance again tonight Nov. 3. We need the rain just not the tornados. Still praying for all the Helene victims.
Tipper, this is why having Historians like yourselves and Geologists documenting the history of floods. Water eventually will seek its own path if the rain is right and we build or alter the site in some ways. Keeping track tells us where to build and where to avoid building.
I had to sit and laugh at the food stories, I have texture thing and the older I get the worse it gets. It cracks my husband up because if I bite into something and the texture is off the face I pull I guess is pretty priceless. We always enjoy your videos and your stories, thanks for sharing. Stay In His Word 📖
Years ago, I got food poisoning from an Italian sausage pizza. I still like pizza, as long as it doesn't have Italian sausage on it. 🙂 I hope you feel better soon.

Good Evening Tipper and Matt.
Tipper, please let me say sincerely, I can no longer imagine a day without you. Your videos are the relaxing part of my day.
Garlic scapes are something I live for each year. I can't grow enough, or buy enough of from the Farmers Market each year to provide me an entire year of supply.
I make Fermented Salsa with them. Ever since the first time I made it, I cannot live without it or make it without garlic scapes. Great with eggs as well as Mexican food. I lacto ferment only a few things, which is so easy because I add about 1/2 the salt that would be needed plus 1/4 cup per quart of raw milk whey from making milk kefir or from making Greek Yogurt from straining regular yogurt. The only vegetables I lacto ferment are Salsa (no whey) grape tomatoes, garlic scapes, onion, jalapenos, Mexican oregano... I make 4 half gallons each year and keep in the back of the refrigerator.
I lacto ferment sauerkraut every two years; young carrots; and Escabeche. I think Matt would love Escabeche. Very simple to make. You can ferment them or can them - whole or sliced jalapeno (or Serranos if he likes hotter), carrots, onion, half garlic cloves, a little Mexican oregano, a Bay Leaf or two, a few drops of oil, salt, and vinegar (per pint jar). When using the hotter Serranos some people will put a teaspoon or two of sugar per pint jar. Process for 15 minutes. Just pack the jars and pour over the vinegar, water, salt, sugar, and bay leaf that has been boiled a couple of minutes.
[Mexican Oregano is very savory. Italian Oregano is minty and sweet, while Greek Oregano is between the two.]
I love sardines and canned Mackerel. The way we have eaten them since I was a child is to layer onto a saltine - yellow mustard, 1/4 slice of sharp cheddar, a piece of ripe tomato, one sardine, a piece of hot onion, and a few drops of Chinese Rooster Sauce (red chili garlic sauce) or maybe a green olive for those who do not like the heat of the Rooster sauce. All in one bite! SO GOOD! This past year smoked sardines have been my favorite. Eaten over warm rice is good too.
The day your Soup video came out I had made almost exactly the same thing a couple of days before. I will eat that soup any day of the year. I love being able to use up what I have left over in the refrigerator. I had fresh tomatoes and zucchini this time. I never put potatoes in my soup, but I always have home-canned stock. I always have 2 separate bags of bones in my freezer that I roast and make stock from. I love using chicken feet in my chicken broth and smoked turkey tails in my turkey, It is the time of year to make turkey broth again. My smoker burned up in a 2-second freak electrical fire, so I need to get another smoker.
Well, planting garlic this week, too. I want to try your canned slaw this year too! Looking forward to your next video. Keeping you always in my prayers, as well as all of the flood victims. Blessings and have a wonderful week and Holiday Season coming up!
Thank you for visiting with us and sharing!! Your sardine way and the salsa sound so good 😊
Love watching you both! Thank you for sharing all of these moments with use. Love the sardine comment.. scarfing sardines making Paul sick. Love it 😂❤.
Good day outdoors in the garden !!
Enjoyed your post tonight. Yes, we agree, as we get older the illnesses are harder to bounce back from. I excited to see the progress in the potato onions. I had not heard of them.
We love the garlic and onions. Seem we have them with every meal.
I’ve only been that sick a few times and noooo don’t want to ever again.
Love all your video’s and enjoy listening to you bantering with each other.
😂
Thanks so much 😊
I put a stake in the ground to help me remember where I put the garlic. Knocking wood for us with the pneumonia about and probably going after some elderberry too. My tomato of prize this year was a Kentucky Beef Yellow, so good. Cherrokee fallowed along but it was the best yellow year ever. prayers for strength and mercy, love one another
Oh my goodness I thought you said a snake! 😂😂😂😂😂 I couldn’t resist to tell you that!
Feel better soon Tipper. Prayers lifted for you and all the family
Don't think she sick now
Not after planting garlic & onions.😂🤣 @@michaelpardue2400
I got sick on homemade fermented dill pickles or "crock pickles" as my grandmother called them. It wasn't that the pickles were bad, it was just that I ate too much and made myself sick. That was 50 years ago, and to this day I still cannot abide the taste of dill in anything or any kind of dill pickles or dill relish.
As a child, when we had a wood burning heater, my grand-dad put the ashes on the garden, and he would dump a bucket in one corner of the chicken house ever so often, because he said the ashes were good for the hens to dust bathe in. Said it helped keep the mites off of them. I don't know if that's actually true or not, but I do know as an adult, with my own chickens, when my DH would empty the ash bucket, it wouldn't be long until the hens would be in the pile taking themselves a good dust bath.
You got foundered on the pickles lol. I'm learning my Appalachian vocabulary ♡
I did the same with my grandma's canned sweet pickles! She always let me eat whatever I wanted, and when I was 7 years old I ate a quart of those super sweet crunchy dark green gherkin pickles. It took me a while, but I loved them so much, I got my taste for them again! But I never ate anything with such abandon after that.
If you grow garlic, save the biggest and grow from our own bulbs.
Sick here in BC Canada too Tipper. Hope we both feel better soon.❤😊
By coincidence we planted our garlic today as well. Music, and a red variety, both hardneck. I added bone meal to the raised beds, and some compost that's been laying around for years. This is our 2nd year with garlic, and we saved the largest bulbs for seed garlic for this year. It is so satisfying, and you don't have to deal with pestilence. Set it and forget it. ;)
Enjoyed your video. Especially the beautiful scenery behind y’all while sitting in your chairs. Absolutely stunning 😍
Another great video and seeing you guys sitting there eating your Popsicles that is so cute and you guys got me hooked on those Popsicles and my favorite is the pineapple and strawberry❤
Glad you guys got your garlic and onion planted. I enjoyed the video. I’m glad you all are doing well and was talking about the past about being so sick. I’m still enjoying an Outshine ice cream now and then. Thanks again for introducing those to me, I really like them! HUGS! 🥰🙋🏻♀️✌️
I think some folks misunderstood and thought they were talking about being sick now and not in the past.
Those Outshine popsicles are the best!
Always good to spend time with y'all. Thanks for sharing.
God Bless you Ms Tipper you are the best. Thank you for sharing your video. Jesus loves you more than you will know. As always, sending prayers and blessings 🙌 🙏 ❤️
You are so welcome 😊 Thank you!!
Hi you two. It's so true how our childhood memories color our preferences. My dad told me that peaches always made him feel good when he was a child, and gave him lots of energy. So I grew up loving peaches. Also I just love sardines, but realize not everyone can stand the smell. I always get a good brand of fresh wild caught sardines. I just came back from the mountains on a mission trip where I roomed with another lady and asked her if she minded if I brought sardines as one of my survival foods. To my delight, she loves sardines too and brought a whole bunch of them, as well. So, you could come with us on a mission trip Ms.Tipper. 😄Ha ha! Love you guys. Keep up the good work. Remain blessed, and continue to have fun together. I like it when all your family starts laughing together. My family does the same thing. 😊
I enjoy hearing Matt’s childhood memories.
I need to get out and plant my onions to over winter for next years harvest. I’d like to try them Egyptian Onions, but I’ve never seen any of the sets sold around any nurseries around me. I figure I’ll have to order them on line. Great conversation you two have for us to listen in by video. Thanks for letting us drop by! Praying continue for all hurricane survivors.🙏🏻
Hey Tipper & Matt, Always glad to see your videos! Thanks so much for all the info & life. ❤ & Prayers
Thanks so much
Here in the Denver area, we had temps up in the 70’s until this weekend.
Prayers for you Tipper - may your strength return to you speedily! Thank you for the visit!
Thanks for the visit 😊
Best wishes from British Columbia!
I always enjoy your videos ,Tipper and Matt, Have a Nice Evening!
I hope you feel better Tipper. 🙏
I love the dinner supper uses. I said lunch in front of my nephew, who is developmental disabled and he corrected me.
Hi you guys good to hear from you all again as always everything looks good God bless you all
Just planted my garlic as well. I absolutely love sardines. I mainly eat the ones in olive oil. Hope you have a wonderful week.
Thanks Tipper for sharing.
Thank you for sharing
Tipper and Matt so enjoyed seeing you both you got a lot done enjoy you both eating your popsicles enjoyed hearing your talk❤️ Shelby
My grandpa took me a few times to the feed store in my hometown when I was real little. Old farmers hanging out in their striped overalls, dtinking coffee and sharing stories. I remember they had a coin operated peanut dispensing machine like a gumball/candy machine. It was funny bcuz the clear walls of the jar or bin were all greasy so it would look gross today but they were the best peanuts ever. Loved that place and it still exists to some extent today but not at all the same.
Again with my grandpa, we would sit in his recliner and have a snack of sardines on soda crackers. I can remember the taste but I don't think I could stomach them anymore.
Have a great week! 🍁🍂
Feel better Tipper!! Prayers for complete healing have already been done! ❤
In England they bake the ham in the compost pile. It makes the perfect juicy ham. They wrap it up really good and bury it. Yummmmmmm..
I had the flu one time, I was so sick, I couldn't get out of bed for almost 2 weeks. I had high fevers, it's what caused my type 1 diabetes. I haven't missed a flu shot since. I love onions, but I hate garlic. I love you and Matt, working together.
Bless you, prayers for good health in Jesus Christ precious name 🙏
Prayers for you Ms Tipper another great video thanks for sharing 👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Hope you feel better soon Tipper your dedication to your channel and to your family is amazing even when you’re sick you’re still doing what you have to do thank you for sharing this beautiful video🙏💕
Ás always, i enjoyed the video today. The peach Popsicle looked good. It's hot here in Alabama also. Give Ira and Woody some hugs from me.
I can smell and feel it, thanks for sharing ❣️
Listening too y'all talk about raking leaves reminded me of what one of my very best old friends used to say..."if God didn't want them on the ground he wouldn't have made them fall off the tree". :)
I know you'll love the walking onions. Anyone who likes a green onion loves a walking onion. I started growing leeks this year and have been so pleased with how easy to grow they are. You do have to spend a long time in late winter starting from seed and they want a lot of fertilizer at that point, but after they're in the ground they can handle just about anything, including super hot dry weather. I still have some in the ground after two frosts. I chop them up and carmelize 5 or 6 at a time in my big pot with olive oil and some butter and salt. That gets put in quart bags in the freezer. I add it to mashed potatoes, bread recipes, soups, beans, almost any recipe I'd put onions in. Definitely worth the work to start the seeds. I use a tray with little compartments to take up less space- 150 or so.
We are fixing to plant garlic this week. I hope you all get a great harvest next summer. We have had the flu like that a couple times. Don't want that again. We have a few Popsicles we need to eat up. Yall have a blessed night
Hope y’all have a great week!!
Enjoyed watching as always…hope y’all have a good week…prayers for Granny/you/family❤❤
Love and my prayers for you 💛🙏🕯
Hope you feel better soon Tipper.
Hey Tipper, Hey Matt, it was the nice seeing you guys planting the garlic and onions. Two of my favorite things. Funny seeing Binks prowling around in the background. Maybe he's looking for Mushmouth? It's spitting a little rain this evening here in my part of Michigan, knocking more of the leaves off their branches. Stay healthy, God bless, and prayers to everybody.
Get better, Miss Tipper.
I still remember when I was a kid, (probably 4th or 5th grade) and I was home sick from school. My Father ran the grain elevator across the street from our house and came home for lunch to check on me and fix me lunch. He fixed Cream of mushroom soup and from that day on I hated mushrooms because I got so sick on that. Lol I was probably 40 before I ate another mushroom.
😊
8:00 That's certainly beat hauling it up there by hand. On rare occasion my back hurts just thinking about workin.....
And now I want some homemade ice cream.
Take care ya'll.
Love and Prayers ❤️🙏hope you get well soon.
The popsicles are a pretty pop of color, matching the fall leaves and Matt's cap 🧡 Storms sometimes blow germs in that are alien to our area. Matt & Tipper we are in great company with Bob Vila from THIS OLD HOUSE, said 'Never rake the leaves, they supply great nourishment to the soil." I know I'm talking to the choir 😂
Once when I was a teen I was really sick. I was in bed over a week and I couldn't keep anything down. My little bro brought me oats he'd made himself chock full with raisins. 😆 It was probably more raisin than oats. Normally I'd have loved that, but there was no way I could eat it. It meant so much to me though. I've got the best brother! 🥰
Love the peace that comes from watching you and Matt plant outside. I can't have a garden where I'm at now, but have in the past. Throwing out coffee grounds, scraps, and eggshells seems wasteful to me. Can connect to you and Matt being so sick and relating it to food. We humans may heal physically before healing mentally. Stay healthy, enjoy the fall weather.
My Danish grandmother buttered the saltines before she put the sardine on top! I ate them because I was a 4 year old child. I had a wider palate back then. I seem to recall a raw beef with a raw egg on pumpernickel, too. But she said you had to grind your own beef to eat it raw. Yuck! 🤢😂
❤always makes my kitchen chores better when I am watching you!!!😊❤🎉
Praying and Blessed! 🤗🙏💕🌄🍂
Hi Tipper! Potato Leek Soup is awesome! I recommend it. And btw your trees look beautiful with colors of fall!!!
Sounds yummy 😊 Thank you!
That’s my absolute favorite soup, eat it with crusty bread with a smear of seedy mustard and melted Brie 😋
Beautiful Fall colors! My favorite memories as a young boy in Tennessee are filled with days in the woods during the Fall with the colors, the earthly smells of rain soaked leaves under foot, and the stillness of the woods around me. God is good!
I’ve been so sick these past few days it’s been terrible. I hardly ever get sick but when I do it’s bad.
Threw up after eating butterscotch crimpets and orange juice while driving from NJ to FL as a kid. I'm nearly 62 and havent yet and never will eat/drink either again!!!!!
Yeah ashes from your stove contains potash,which is very good for the soil in your garden.
In central Wisconsin, I planted garlic 3 weeks ago: two softneck varieties (silver rose & dixon inchelium) and 4 hardnecks (chesnok red, german hardy white, potosi pink, & musik). To help insulate them from the freezing cold, I topped them off with 5" of fluffy white pine needle mulch. I'm looking forward to making more garlic scape pesto next June. Yum! 😋
If you've never had leek and potato soup, you don't know what you're missing. Leeks also keep really well in the freezer. Just make sure to clean them good because dirt gets trapped in the leaves while they're growing.
I planted potato onions last winter and they did good until the weather turned quickly from spring to summer and they died from the heat, so be sure you take them out before June and store them to have some for eating and some to replant in the fall.
Sounds delicious!
Matt thinking he got sick from the peaches reminds me of a time I had the flu. I got sick during the night and the first thing that came up was the greens we'd had for dinner that night. I knew the greens didn't make me sick but it was about a year before I could bring myself to eat any greens. 😊
I was that way with HiC fruit punch when I was young. I never drank it after that flu.
Feel better. I have major fall allergies/cold with an ear infection. Love the ear protection to keep them warm.
Kubota tractor! They are my favorite!
I LOVE sardines, Tipper.
I use the same process for selecting tomato seeds that was the last way you mentioned. I spread them out on a paper towel and let them dry. At planting time I just tear off each seed and plant it. It works just great.
I would almost fight someone for sardines in mustard sauce. Tin of those and a rack of saltine crackers.
Enjoyed this. Great grand baby went home today. She and I aren't feeling well. We had a tornado last night. My street no damage . Just tree limbs down. A chance again tonight Nov. 3. We need the rain just not the tornados. Still praying for all the Helene victims.
Linda I hope you both feel better soon!! And pray there is no more tornadoes.
Tipper, this is why having Historians like yourselves and Geologists documenting the history of floods. Water eventually will seek its own path if the rain is right and we build or alter the site in some ways. Keeping track tells us where to build and where to avoid building.
The background where you and Matt were sitting looks just like a beautiful painting!
I had to sit and laugh at the food stories, I have texture thing and the older I get the worse it gets. It cracks my husband up because if I bite into something and the texture is off the face I pull I guess is pretty priceless. We always enjoy your videos and your stories, thanks for sharing. Stay In His Word 📖
Years ago, I got food poisoning from an Italian sausage pizza. I still like pizza, as long as it doesn't have Italian sausage on it. 🙂 I hope you feel better soon.
