My partner and I took care of my parents until their end. We made sure that they had everything they wanted and needed. My grandma (my mom's, mom) was an amazing woman. So strong and I have her no nonsense personality. She passed when I was 12/13. I got to see her once before she passed. My mom took care of her at her end. My grandma knew she was sick but didn't tell anyone because she didn't want treatment. She didn't want to suffer like that. I miss all 3 of them. So much.
Im American. Im 34 and moved my 71 year old mother in to my house. I don’t make her pay rent or utilities. she’s independent but has a deformed foot i don’t want her falling as she gets older. Not all Americans push our elders to the home 😊
I am 80. My son has taken care of me for the last years. We get on each other's nerves but we did when I was the parent. I don't know why I have been given this end of life care, I am only so grateful. He didn't have to. I didn't for my mother, she had my bro and sister.
@@jaelamelco948 Don't give them no fake lard, honey! They have to have the real deal. Sno Cap, I think, is the brand of lard. They need to try cooking with bacon grease, too! 😊
I want you to come to Georgia! We live about 100 miles southeast of Atlanta, and my husband and I both cook. We’d treat you like a king, or even better, like family. I know it’s not likely that you’ll ever come to Georgia, much less visit some folks you know nothing about, but I wish you would. 😍 I hope you know how much joy you bring to all of us. I’m sure I’m not the only one telling you to come for a visit. And we’re all being perfectly sincere. 💕
Love your channel, I am originally from Montana. I have a lovely, from- scratch recipe for chicken pot pie. No soup, you actually make a roux first. It is a recipe from a family friend and😊 she was was originally from Australia.
I used to make pot pies alot when my family was home. It wouldn't have ever occurred to me to make them with anything but a rhue. I've never seen a recipe for pot pies that called for condensed soups. In my opinion they are terrible and l never use them.
Same here, whenever I order fish and chips in the states, I ask for malt vinegar and the counter clerk just looks at me funny before fishing around for a bottle 😂
What a sweet and lovely man. So happy and positive. I want to adopt him! I can make him a pot pie from scratch; no soup... just gravy chicken and veggie all in a lovely crust.
Do they ever eat together? I hope so. My siblings and I used to play the Tennessee waltz on our piano together while we sang the lyrics. Nice to hear this wonderful man sing it.❤
As a man from alabama i can say that i believe a happy older gent like you would be appreciated, so nice and respectfull you would fit right in . i hope one day you can check it off your bucketlist ! if you come there are some great foods here ;) . eat your fill and i hope you enjoy the southern hospitality. and you should make a go fund me or somthing i would love to throw in on helping this legend see america !
This is SO PRECIOUS! I like the way HE said it…..Chicken pie pot! 👍😊❤️ And, beautiful singing voice! He would be more than welcome in our United States! She’s lucky to still have her sweet Grandpa. ❤
Oh he reminds me of my dad so much. Thank you for sharing him with us all. I miss my dad he passed in 2015. He was born the same year as your dad 1933.
Awwwww, I LOVE IT!!! Hugs and big smiles from a Texas Southern Belle! I was hoping with all my heart that he would love it! 🤗 What a dear fellow! And you are a wonderful daughter!❤ Thank you for this!!
One of the reasons we use condensed soups is that it is a real time saver. No need to make a cream soup from scratch just to add it to a dish. Homemade is always better if you are a good cook, but it will take a lot more time. Also, to buy all the ingredients to make just one small batch for a casserole or something can be pretty expensive compared to buying one can of condensed soup. -- den
He looks so smashing singing in his tux! Yes, the soup is a short cut and some people snub their noses at it but it turns out delicious things and you seem to be an amazing cook!
Seeing this before I have to head out made me smile ear to ear. I loved working in a retirement community for a few decades because of all the residents such as him... though, even the ornery ones could make smile, too.
So happy you love the chicken pot pie. My mother taught me to make them using frozen premade deep dish pie crusts. Cook chicken in a pot with celery, carrots and onions; add flour at last to thicken, pour in pie crusts/top with pie crust. No soup. You have a beautiful voice Dear. Greetings from Wild Peach Texas ! Hope to see you soon again!
The soup us just a white sauce with the various ingredients, such as celery or chicken, mushrooms, or onions. Even broccoli or cheese. I've made pot pie with a good chicken gravy also. It's really just a convenience.
@@daniellejordan4551 I know. I have to be careful with salt and remember a colleague who had children and should have known better with standing behind me one day at the cafe and I was lamenting the lack of choices for something to eat there because of either sugar or salt. She said "get the soup". I said "I have to have under 2000 mg a day and most soups have somewhere between 600 and 1,000."
Grandad joe, We'd love to have you for a visit, bring everybody. Oh, been waiting on the British grandad tries biscuits and gravy. Perhaps some pulled pork sandwich for dinner?
When he started singing Tennesse waltz ❤❤❤❤❤
He has a very nice voice.
@@vivienleigh2121 Indeed. I was looking for this comment.
I’m from Tennessee. That was so sweet. His singing is great.
@@historybarf ditto
Awwww
START A GOFUNDME!!! Most of us in America will pitch in to bring him over for a visit! It can be Granddad Joe’s grand tour
❤❤ Actually that's a brilliant idea 😉!.
Maybe on a cruise ship, for a more relaxed journey.
I don’t think it’s financial reasons, he’s in his 90’s & a journey like that would be very strenuous.
@@LauraBidingCitizen My mom is 80 and we visited the UK... it's strenuous, but, with some planning and care, it's doable!
@ 80 is not 91! That’s 11 years difference!!
If only this is how we all will be treated in our older times
My partner and I took care of my parents until their end. We made sure that they had everything they wanted and needed.
My grandma (my mom's, mom) was an amazing woman. So strong and I have her no nonsense personality.
She passed when I was 12/13.
I got to see her once before she passed.
My mom took care of her at her end.
My grandma knew she was sick but didn't tell anyone because she didn't want treatment. She didn't want to suffer like that.
I miss all 3 of them. So much.
Lets hope we make it first

Amen to that!
He has a beautiful voice.
I almost cried when he started singing the Waltz lol. What a fine outstanding gentlemen your Grandad is :) We would love to have you in America sir.
Do you have lard in America?
@Kat-Astrophe79yes we do! Loook for "Crisco" brand 😅
Yes we would. Welcome and come visit Texas when you get here.
@@jaelamelco948 Don't give them no fake lard, honey! They have to have the real deal. Sno Cap, I think, is the brand of lard. They need to try cooking with bacon grease, too! 😊
This guy is a riot! I love him and his cheery outlook on things.
And he's pretty handsome, too.
As a Tennessee girl,when he started to sing the Tennessee Waltz I couldn't help but giggle. What a sweet 💖 is Grandad Joe.
Me too. Knoxville
“Oh you are good to me”, are words I hope to hear from my elderly loved ones.
I.. don't, but I care for my parents anyway. It is the honorable and virtuous thing to do, and I do it knowing it is right.
@@jaklumen we are not worthy of your presence for wanting approval from our own parents, you are so cool and virtuous
@jaklumen do it quietly up there on your high horse
My dad said as much last night. Came out of nowhere. 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
Grandad Joe we would love to have you here in Alabama!!
You have that white sauce. Mr. Levon Helm approves, although he was from Arkansas.
Don't forget to stop by Wisconsin on your trip to America. A jolly old English chap is always welcome behind the Cheddar curtain.
@@faschwank I love Welsh rarebit.
Granddad's gorgeous singing voice is so warming. What a chipper and lovely gentleman
Yeah his singing voice was an extremely pleasant surprise.
Awww Babs...take papa to America please, please...such a lovely man. I love him❤
I live in Florida and I for one can say that the entire south would welcome him here with open arms.
Amen!
We would like some time with gpa Joe up here in Oregon too!
Alabama welcomes grandpa Jo and family ❤. We'll feed you good!
Amen to that. I live in Florida as well and would welcome them with open arms.
I hear they aren't fond of immigrants down there lol.
Aww you British gents are so charming and what a pleasant voice you have. 😊
Ok 😂 old lady in love with grandpa right now 😂
Hands across the ocean, sending love from the USA! ♥️♥️♥️👍👍👍
across the pond, as us old folks say
I want you to come to Georgia! We live about 100 miles southeast of Atlanta, and my husband and I both cook. We’d treat you like a king, or even better, like family. I know it’s not likely that you’ll ever come to Georgia, much less visit some folks you know nothing about, but I wish you would. 😍

I'm from Alabama and when I was a little fellow way, way back my dad would sing Tennessee waltz when we were traveling in his pick up truck.
Granddad Joe is an absolute treasure
I've never seen this channel before...just subscribed. I love the way you treat your grandfather! You must have a beautiful heart
Your videos make me smile! I live in the US and I need all the smiles I can get!

Awe he looked so excited when that tray was coming! Precious
I just love your grandad! We'd welcome him to Maryland & Washington, DC, with open arms. 😊
He is so so sweet. Makes me miss my parents and my grandma. 💙💙
Salt and vinegar on fries is something we do in New England I live in Florida now, but England to New England it followed
It’s a Canadian thing too. I get strange looks when I ask for vinegar in the USA.
Same here, whenever I order fish and chips in the states, I ask for malt vinegar and the counter clerk just looks at me funny before fishing around for a bottle 😂
Salt, okay, but vinegar? Never heard of that, I'll try it!
@@Misterwhistle Western NY too. My wife does it and I look at her like she's weird.
@@sandywheeze3505: “Arthur Treacher’s Fish & Chips” used to serve fries with malt vinegar.
He isnt just your grandad, he is ours too. I love this sweet old man. I WISH I could grant his wish to come to America ❤
Your granddad is so wonderful! Thank you for the smile.❤️
Love u and your dad on 2 levels. My gramp was the best ww2❤. And I lived with my dad, from 17 - 23.two of the best men ever!! Lots of love 🎉🎉🎉 xxx😊

Another reason is that the quality of SOME condensed soups is quite good. Some other canned soups are lousy.
❤ this man is so adorable. I hope he gets everything he desires.
I absolutely love British people they remind me of country people in America friendly and down to earth❤
I never got a chance to visit Devon but have been to England a few times.My ancestors left Devon in 1630 for Mass then later Conn.
This brings back memories of cooking for my dad. She’s going to look back on these times with him and treasure them forever. 🥲❤
Aah! He was singing one of my favorite old classics ❤❤❤
I love your granddad. You're lucky to have him... my grandparents passed away when I was very young.
OMG! Hug him tight, cherish him! 💗
He loves her and everything she does for him. Warms my heart.
Got a smile on my face watching him use the back side of the fork to eat... just like me grandmum and granddad did when they would visit us 😊
We still eat like that even today. It is not an old time thing!
He is just a doll ❤️ makes me want to give him a hug! 🥰
His a good singer bless x
GrandDad has quite a beautiful singing voice
🤗😍😘

You need to have some meet and greets across the USA for all of your fans!!
Don't have any idea why the algorithm brought you to me, but I'm glad it did. Grandpa is an awesome guy.. you're lucky to have this in your life ❤😊
Likewise. Maybe we just needed some holiday cheer. Aside from all the stress.
Hahaha grandad Joe is so cute. 🤣🙏🏻
I love this man! He’s so cheerful and a good sport.❤️
Gramdad, I enjoyed your singing part of the Tennessee Waltz. I think you have a very nice voice.Thank you and thanks to Babs. ❤

@@LindaC616 Yes, most soup has lots of salt, canned or homemade. You have to season the broth so it doesn't taste like hot chicken dish water.
