The food looks great and i love how you take special care to be loving and kind to each other! God bless you both!
Thank you so much
Hello from KY love your channel ❤️.You better look out Calvin,Marie is pretty handy with that filet gizmo lol.Just playing Marie I have never seen one of those things .I always used dental floss clean of course😊. Or a serrated knife like you said.Everything looks delishes.Hope you both have a great weekend.❤
I usually just use a knife, I've never tried using dental floss but I will the next time. This cutter works good but it is tricky to line it up.
Have a Blessed weekend,
Marie and Calvin
That Chocolate orange cake sounds so delicious! I always love your videos! God bless you both!!!
Thank you so much!
I am going through these older throwback videos to give you a thumbs up. I do also enjoy them.
Glad you like them!
The chocolate orange pound cake and Mexican rice skillet look delicious. I’m so thankful you got some much needed rain. I know it helped your garden and lawn. Your garden is looking great. I can’t wait to see your harvest. I hope your sons knee it getting better. God bless you both.
Thanks very much Harriet
Loved the video of the rain and the garden. Sometimes it's just nice to have a rainy day to stay in and cook. Your gladiolas are beautiful. I've aways loved them but i don't get enough direct sun to grow them. My sister used to make a variation of the layered Sara Lee cake. I hadn't thought of it in years, but it reminded me of her. Thanks for pulling that good memory to my mind. She passed away four years ago, and I sure do miss her and her good cooking. The hamburger dish looks and sounds delicious. I probably would omit the rice as I'm not too fond of rice and with the corn I try to stay away from too many starches.
Thanks very much
Oh, I love the rain, grew up with a lot of rain but I live in the dessert now. Great recipes! Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Calvin and Marie
What a delicious looking lunch. I must try that cake.
Thanks very much Maurina
A cookbook would be nice😊 I love church cookbooks so many good recipes.... That dinner looks amazing can't wait to make it for my daughter
Thanks very much
Both the dessert and Mexican skillet dish looks delish Calvin and Marie!! Tfs!! Take care and God Bless!!!
❤️🛐✝️🛐❤️
Thanks so much Vernie
I agree with Marie about Calvin putting a cookbook together. Actually, the both of you should put one together as all your dishes are just what people looking for a quick delicious meal to make with ingredients they usually have at home can make. Well done again!
Maybe one day! Thanks very much
@Southern Country Living in case you were wondering...I had a cat named Tita which can mean Aunty or girl in certain languages so that's where my name came from. Have a blessed day! ❤️
I always wonder about the names. Thanks for sharing.
Glad to see you got some rain! Your garden will love it! This is a delicious looking meal. I like recipes that can be made in a skillet, less dishes to wash. Marie, I love that cake cutter you have! I usually cut a cake with thread or dental floss. Just wrap it around the cake, crisscross the ends, and pull it through. Thanks for the quick & easy cake recipe!
Thanks so much Sharon
Good evening Calvin and Marie. Food looks absolutely delicious 😋. Have a Blessed Day ❤
Thanks very much Sheryl
Oh I’m looking forward to watching this and relaxing later after work !!!!! Thanks so much ❤
You’re welcome 😊
We made this Mexican Rice Skillet. We added black beans and green peppers to the recipe. So good!!! Another hit with us, Marie and Calvin!!😊
Sounds great, we really enjoyed this recipe and I'm sure it was even better with black beans and peppers.
Hi folks
Recipes are great today. Marie the kitchen is very pretty and so very clean.
Take care
Thanks so much Patsy
Hello Calvin and Marie. The cake looks delicious! I will be making the Mexican rice skillet! The flowers in the garden are beautiful! Nice video!!! God Bless you both. Mrs. Lonnie
Thanks so much Mrs Lonnie
Good afternoon Calvin and Marie, I appreciate these budget friendly meals; it's so quick and easy. Thank you. I am glad y'all got rain the garden needed it. Bless the Lord!
Thanks very much Regina

You are so welcome!
Absolutely delicious looking cake Mrs Marie ♥️♥️♥️ Mr Calvin my husband and I love anything Mexican ♥️♥️♥️

Hi Marie and Calvin that looks yummy. It's around 74 here in Ohio, guess it's waiting to July to get real hot... I like the Sara Lee pound cakes.... Have a blessed night
Thanks so much Lisa
Food looks DELICIOUS, love a easy mexican dish! Thanks for the draining off grease hack, I’ve never saw that, will come in handy! God bless you both and thank God for the rain!🙏🌧️🫶
You are so welcome!
Thanks for sharing. These both look delicious and easy to make. Thank God for the rain. We here in the Detroit area have not had a lot lately. We had some today. Blessings.
Thanks very much Marsha
Hi again from Australia. As usual the food looks delicious. We’ll definitely be having that this week. You both are looking well. Prayers to you and your family. 🙏❣️
Thanks very much
Hey lovely couple,
We love fast and easy delicious recipes. I will definitely be making this. 👌
Thank you for the recipe and please send some of that rain our way.❤💕
Much love,
Rennie
Thanks very much, we enjoyed our rain but the hot humid weather is here today.
I’m so happy you got rain you guys really needed it for the beautiful garden👍🙏
Yes, and the garden is really responding.
The cake looks good and easy to make. I like the chocolate candy that has orange flavor in it and it's shaped like an orange. Yay much needed rain. We had a downpour yesterday. Your meal looks really good Calvin. I love Mexican dishes.
Thanks so much 😊
Hey Calvin and Marie. The flowers in front of the garden are just beautiful. Glad y'all got some rain. Oh boy, that's one good looking meal. Yup, I'll be trying this one for sure. Y'all take care andd God Bless. P.S. Hope Lamar's knee is healing up good. ❤
Thanks very much Teresa
Yum yum 😉
Thanks very much
Oh. I look forward to making those two recipes.
Thanks very much
That cake is a great idea for a quick dessert or treat to have with tea/coffee if someone drops in. I guess I better get a pound cake for the freezer!! 😊
My usual go-to emergency dessert is a berry crumble. I make sure I always have a bag of mixed berries in the freezer. I put some in individual dishes with a little sugar and cornstarch, and make a quick crumble topping. It takes no time at all...by the time the oven has heated up, the individual crumbles are ready to bake. If I have some ice cream to serve with the warm crumble, it looks like a "fancy" dessert. 😊
Thanks very much Terri, that is a great idea.
Looks delicious! Cant wait to try it! Love those Sara Lee pound cakes and orange and chocolate together, so this will be yummy!
Update! Made the Mexican skillet tonight and it was delish! I added half can of green chiles and replaced half of the corn with black beans. We have plenty for lunches the next couple days. Thanks for easy and good recipes! Hugs to you both.
Thanks very much
Your meal looks delicious. My mom used to keep a Sara Lee pound cake in her freezer. I want to try both of these recipes. Thank you so very much...Mrs.Steve
You are so welcome!
For your spanish rice dishes use the sason seasoning. Its in all the stores in the mexican section. It makes all the difference.
Thanks very much
Marie your shirt and the color of it looked really pretty. The meal looked great. 🧡
Thanks so much Angela
Everything looked delicious. I am not big on desserts but the rice will make it to the rotation.
Thanks very much
Mmm, Marie, reminds me of chocolate covered orange slices they sell at Christmas time! You could even add peanut butter with jelly for kids!😋. Glad you’re getting some rain! Skillet looks delicious Calvin! Hope all is well. Have a Blessed evening!🌻
Great idea!!
@@SouthernCountryLiving Thanks!
Easy delicious meal 👍❤️
Thank you 😋
Love a one pot meal!
Thanks very much
Calvin n Marie, This is my second Mexican recipe video I’ve watched tonight ! Y’all all killing me here!!😂 I just can’t understand people who don’t like Mexican food…kind of like I don’t like garlic…lol!! I love these easy meals…and this one is certainly a keeper! By reading your comments several people have tried it and love it. Sounds good to me! I make a Mexican Chicken dish that I found when I lived in Shreveport, LA. It is really good..not healthy but good. You may have already made it. It calls for chicken shredded, tortilla chips, Velveeta Cheese and chicken & Mushroom cream soups and RoTel Tomatoes with chili peppers. I use mild. Like you two, anything Mexican needs sour cream!! Love the color of your shirt, Marie. My Daddy used to wear shirts like Calvin’s with the pocket. This video was 3 weeks ago but I’ve been pretty sick with a bad infection that the antibiotics did not even touch. It was very painful. After a culture the dr gave me a more powerful antibiotic for the type of infection I have and I am finally responding to it. It has been a month. Take care my friends! 🙏🏻🙏🏻💜💜
Thanks very much Vikki. We're glad that you are feeling better now.
That cake looks so good Marie!! Calvin I tried the Mexican rice casserole and it was delicious, Thank You God Bless you both!! ❤❤
You are so welcome
Looks so good!! I’m definitely trying both of these. Love chocolate and orange combination. I’m starving now!❤️❤️
Thank you 😋
Hi guys
I just know the food is delicious
Thank you for sharing
Take care
Our pleasure!
Definitely gonna try both of these....the cake would be so good with vanilla ice cream! Marie...next time you're in Walmart go by the vision center & ask them to put some silicone nose pads on your glasses...those are the best for keeping your glasses from sliding down. I had the same problem too until I got those. Just thought I'd let you know❤
Great idea!! Thanks
Those both look delicious! I’m going to try that cake and use cherry preserves between the layers. 💕
Sounds great!
The entire meal looks absolutely delicious 😋 Thank you for sharing! I’m definitely going to make these recipes ❤️❤️
You are so welcome!

@@SouthernCountryLiving you’re welcome
Do you have a cookbook or have plans for one in the future? Loved the dishes today but then I love all of dishes you two prepare. Joan in FL.
Joan, we don't have a cookbook yet. We were wanting to make one two years ago before Calvin was diagnosed with cancer. He just hasn't had the energy or time to work on it since. He still says that he wants to put one together for us if he can.
Thanks for asking.
Have a Blessed week,
Marie and Calvin
Thanks so much for the response you guys.@@SouthernCountryLiving
Do you have an update on Calvins cancer?
@@JoanHackney Calvin went through chemotherapy, radiation treatments and surgery in 2022. He was on immunotherapy treatments for all of 2023. He is cancer free now but he can only eat small amounts of food due to the surgery which removed 1/2 of his esophagus and 2/3 of his stomach.
Happy Father's Day, Calvin
Thanks very much

We call them spatulas “lickers”😊
Thanks very much
wrap that up in a heated tortilla and call it a burrito
Good idea
Dear Calvin and Marie. Your Mexican rice dish is lovely but being conscious of our health( I’m 74) I know you guys are younger but please consider leaving the extra salt out of this recipe. As you probably know, when reading the ingredients on prepared foods and seasonings, the things listed first, has the greatest Quantity. On the Great Value Taco seasoning, the salt is listed first. So when you add your own salt, you are getting way too much salt in your dish. Too much salt is bed for us, especially at our age range. And I care about your health, so please consider leaving out or at least using g a lot less of your own salt. I hope you will take this as construe criticism or advice because it comes only from my caring heart. Amen
Constructive criticism *
Thanks very much, yes we should cut back on our salt.
