    Oh my Gosh Kevin. I love the escape into your world away from this crazy world we live in. Your voice is so soothing and I LOVED hearing you sing. This world needs more of you. Our Mr. Rogers for adults. Keep it up.

      Oh, my goodness, I totally agree!! You have put into words what I have felt these past couple of years of watching Kevin! Kevin, you kept me calm during the hard times of the pandemic, and gave me comfort and hope for the future. You definitively are the “Mr. Rogers” for adults! Those of us who follow you, love you dearly; like an old friend. ❤

    Warmest Wassailing Greetings Kevin! You are certainly on key with your short rendition of the Wassailing Song. I just loved it. Well done!
    As a really busy host at this time of year, lots of work will have gone into your special party for your many friends locally. With those numbers I'm not at all surprised you decided on outside catering. As usual, a great visit for us with lots of delicious recipes and the fun extra special video snippets.
    For all I've sung the song, I've never actually made Classic Wassail. As you say, it's simple enough to make, beautifully warming on a cold winter day and I just love your huge serving cups.
    All the nibbles you made are perfect for our festive gathering. I've tried the spicy hot sauce but never tried it with heated sausage and pineapple nibbles. Must try that. Love the look of the pinwheels and adore the twist on putting smoked salmon on cucumber instead of biscuits. Nice fresh taste for sure.
    Thank you so much as always for another extra special visit. Great to come in out of the cold and enjoy your supreme hospitality. Thank you so very much. All Love and Huge Hugzz, Steve xx

    Oh to be a guest, Chez Kevin! This is the closest most of us will get, and it's a pleasure. These December videos are wonderfully festive, and really putting me in the Christmas spirit. I dearly hope there will be more TH-cam content from this gorgeous channel before the big day - and New Year celebrations too, of course!

    Your elegant hand painted China Plates just blew my mind! Where did you ever get them? They were my mother's. Or at least exactly the same as my mother's... what I grew up with, the full set, at every holiday or fancy dinner. With fine silverware and crystal glasses... I loved that set but did not inherit them, my niece got them perhaps 15 or 20 years ago. Maybe she sold them online? Can you enlighten me? If they came from BC they were my mom's, I never in my nearly 70 years saw another pattern like it. I would recognize it anywhere. My mom was a natural queen and my parents loved entertaining. God Bless My Beautiful Mother 1920-2020. What a thrill for me to see it again - you can't imagine ❤

    Oh, my, Kevin…These little appetizers look so delicious and so easy to make! There’s really no reason to buy a lot of store bought ready to serve kind of stuff when you can elevate the whole game plan by making your very own! And thank you for taking the time to upload yet another video these very busy days till Christmas! Hope to see you again at least once before Christmas!

    I’m going to buy a nice little notebook to jot your wonderful recipes down. I should have been doing this a long time ago and call it Kevin’s recipes - to die for - lol 🥰 and make little drawings of your rooms or something to go in it through out the year for the recipes . Such as your beautiful Christmas tree- or the fireplace etc. Not sure what I’ll put on the cover yet- but thank you for all of your wonderful recipes and for all the peace and happiness you bring in every single video. God bless you and wishing you a very merry Christmas. 🎄🎅🏼🤶🏻🥰🥂
    OH my word! I was looking Thru some of your other videos and came across the Lemon Wheel recipe! I can hardly wait to make it. 🥰❤️💕💕❤️I am a lemon lover - lol and it is like a recipe I’ve never heard of before! Can hardly wait!

    Kevin, I’m watching your video this am around 5:49 am. I’m up early for a reason. At 8:30 I’m on my way for a procedure to ascertain if I have breast cancer. I’m now 85 and in great shape, no meds, walking, gym etc. Your video is taking my mind off my morning destination. I always enjoy you cooking all your goodies. I never seem to have pen and paper handy to copy your easy to follow instructions. I don’t cook that much but it all looks delicious.
