I am an older , single person living alone. All the recipes have helped me to take an interest in my health. It’s hard when one lived alone to be interested in cooking. Thanks for helping me tackle this.
I have learned many new things about gardening, etc.
Thanks for everything.
You asked about markets. I live near Orillia, Ontario Canada. I enjoy getting fresh food and flowers. I am so lucky to live here and to have found you Mr. Jacobs on TH-cam.
God bless you.
This makes me want to do a make ahead brunch for my family. You’re videos never disappoint, and always inspire me. Thank you.
Kevin, I trust everything you suggest to serve, your menu selections, methods of cooking, planning and decor. You are a class act.
🌄 Good morning Kevin- Always a pleasure to watch you whip up a brunch. Crisp New Hampshire morning here.
I am calling this ☕ coffee with Kevin. Currently reading The SWEETNESS of the BOTTOM of the PIE by Alan Bradley, who wrote his first mystery series when he was 70. It is set in an English village in 1950. I mention this, not only to say the novel is excellent, but to talk about 1950, my birth year. Reading Bradley's story reminded me of how different life was 73 year's ago, minus all the technology clutter and loss of the genteel side of life. Life was straight forward and full of exquisite details, showcasing the art of the household, cooking foods with friends & family. Zen & the Art of Adding a Touch of Elegance to One's Routine.
I buy those gorgeous croissants at Cosco. They are flaky and buttery and freeze well. That 🍓 strawberry butter looks wonderful! Make no mistake, we are working farmers. There is that side to our existence, but still room for 🍐🍇🍐🍴🍸🍸 🍴 good china and a glass of wine. Thanks for sharing this beautiful brunch! ~ Diane
Well said Diane, you're my kind of girl (or my kinda gal...) xx beautifully put xx
I love that series. Flavia is a great character!!
@rogue1303- Yes, I adored reading about Flavia and Nancy Drew growing up. I have spoken with Alan and he assures me that he is writing more Flavia mysteries. Its no easy task keeping her at eleven or twelve!
@@dianehall5345 The new book is being released on September 3, 2024 and will be called "What Time the Sexton's Spade Doth Rust." I can't wait!!!!!
@rogue1303- Thank you so much for sharing the next book release date! I will pass that on to our librarian. We were just talking about Alan and when he would be releasing the next Flavia adventure. Apparently he has two books in the works and a tv series. Flavia would do Sherlock proud!
I would LOVE to be a guest at your delicious looking brunch!…EXCELLENT Kevin!!!!
I like all these make ahead meals, they are all so good and makes life easier. I liked that description, a fearless flower arranger😁
Mr. Fox is lucky to have you in the kitchen! 😀
I never would have thought to paint the walls in my dining room purple, but yours looks amazing.
Kevin....you have reached a ROYAL LEVEL.
What an amazing presentation of treasures .... high cuisine,elegant home,flower-arrangement delight
OUTSTANDING..
made my day to watch you
THANK YOU
LOVED EVERY MINUTE
I am so thrilled to have found you. I love your videos and recipes. Thank you
Thank you so much, Ricarda!
I couldn’t have said it better myself ❤
You made me laugh so much when you were talking about the chickens, very funny! The food looks wonderful and the flower arrangement was gorgeous. I was horrified by how much you're paying for croissants. They're no where near that price in the UK. But they did look delicious. Thank you for posting, your vids always leave me feeling so relaxed.
I adore you referring to your mate as "Mr. FOX" ❤❤❤
Bonjour Kevin !
Je vous prie de m’excuser d’écrire mes commentaires en Français
Je suis devant mon écran à visionner vos vidéos. Je ne peux laisser passer une journée sans ce plaisir de vous regarder
Votre bonne humeur votre gentillesse votre cadre de vie tout est beau ❤
Merci pour tous ces bons moments que je passe en votre compagnie et pour toutes vos bonnes recettes merci
What a joy to be best friends with you and Mr. Fox!
So elegant and filled with a beautiful relaxing setting with scrumptious foods....thank you for the incredible inspiration!
OK MY GOODNESS, SUNDAY IS MOTHER'S DAY 2023.
THIS WILL BE MY BRUNCH FOR SURE❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Kevin, I always look forward to seeing you. The brunch dishes look delicious. I was laughing when you joked about the 🐔 chickens. Eggs here in CT are the same price. Thank you .
You are a fantastic host! Thank you for inviting us over! 🌸😃🍰
Chickens driving around in BMW , I like your sense of humor 😂❤ and the Brunch looks so delicious ❤🎉❤🎉
Beautiful flower arrangement! And that egg casserole looks like something I’ll be making for my family’s next Winter Solstice celebration.
So happy to see you using grocery store flowers for your arrangement. Who says you can't have elegance on a budget?
Hilarious 😂 chickens got a raise, flying around on vacation 🤣
You are an elegant man. Mr. Fox is very lucky!
Your voice is hypnotic kevin. And your home is delightful.
I can tell right now, without having tasting it, that I would love that Bloody Mary mix 😋 As an ex floral designer, I also still use the foam, especially in an oblong container. Table looks gorg, as usual.
Ваши видео -- удовольствие и релакс для моей души!🙂
Kevin! I love your Chicken story!!! You made me laugh. Thank you, so much fun watching your videos
Fantastic brunch! Love your blue and white plates and goblets. That's my favourite choice when setting the table for guests. Thanks for another great video! Best wishes from Toronto 🇨🇦😊
The chickens! 😂
Trying this out when my grandchildren visit next weekend. The dessert trolley will be a favourite for them, and their parents will appreciate the Bloody Marys and casserole. Will work really well as they are visiting in time for Brunch and I even have an extensive collection of the Liberty Blue crockery, inherited from my late parents but in immaculate condition. Thank you so much for the inspiration xx
Tee hee! I agree and hope as well that the chickens got a raise! Although I heard some of them prefer a 4x4 in winter. 😁😄
Kevin! I can’t wait to try your fabulous oatmeal bars for tomorrow’s breakfast and will sit at your table in spirit (if that’s okay).
Thank you for the new video and as always, much love from Nova Scotia. ☺️
Fabulous! I’m going to have four of my grandchildren for a teatime and am getting ideas from your videos. Thank you for your spectacular videos. ❤️
Love the description of modern chickens! 😁👏
W O W!!! You have outdone yourself Kevin!! Super recipes to try…you are delightful. I went to a movie theater the other day and could hardly hear; the three chickens in front of me were cackling so loud 🐣🐥🐤 Thank you 😊
Lovely setting, perfect host with delicious menu. You are wonderful, Kevin! Thank you for bringing this video to your people. ❤
A perfect spring meal. I love chilled soup in spring and summer. The soup,salad and dessert were a perfect balance to the richness of the duck.
The table set with antique china was beautiful. Wonderful episode Kevin.
EVERYTHING looks wonderful! And I love your make ahead options!!! Top notch, as usual Kevin!
Kevin, your lovely videos are like a warm hug on a cold day! Looking forward to the next! Bon appétit from Québec!
Gosh, I wish I could hurry right over
I love everything…thank you so much. I’m going to make the baked blueberry oatmeal. Susie is right…Your recipes are so inspirational. Thank you, you are a wonderful teacher.
Oh Kevin. I LOVE your videos. I love you too. What a blessed family you have. Youre a treasure!!
Laugh of the day “affluent chickens”. Look forward to your posts.
Thank you for this lovely, inspiring video! I appreciate all the work you put into this beautiful video.
Just what I needed as I sit here in the midst of a bout of Covid, not able to taste or smell a thing 🥲But, this too shall pass, and then I’m going to invite some friends over for croissants and strawberry butter! Another time, I’ll serve them the gelatine dessert for dinner. Thanks for the pick-me-up, Kevin!
I hope you feel better soon!!!
Next time I will be glad to be your guest!
Very elegant brunch specially in front of the fireplace, I love the recipes too, very classy!
Thank you Kevin!

Thank you Kevin.
BAIE MOOI ❤️❤️ FROM SOUTH AFRICA
My mom bought those Liberty blue plates at the grocery store each week during the Bicentennial! I still have the whole set including serving pieces!
Chickens driving around in BMWs! I love your shows for so many reasons, but your humor is the cherry-- I mean--Cool Whip on top.
Great presentation Kevin. Very cold here in Illinois and this brunch a wonderful idea to warm friends or family when over to play games, do puzzles and have conversation.Thank you.
Thanks for the great ideas Kevin, its great to see you x brunch has caught on in the UK and we often meet family and friends for brunch now x Yours looks amazing and I will definitely be trying them. Thanks once again x
Hi Kevin, I recently found your channel and I am in love with your stress free cooking and baking. I also love your humor especially about the chickens, lol. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us! ❤❤
Great to see you too.
What a lovely brunch, I especially loved the table settings and your floral arrangement. You have many talents. Thanks for sharing.
Boy would I love to be one of your brunch guests!!!! 😉
Love this Kevin! I love Ina’s bloody Mary’s! The table looks beautiful and the flowers looked like a spring garden. You’re a lot of fun! So happy I found you!
Beautiful menu, l loved your chicken jokes, you really take the stress out of your parties, you enjoy the preparation,❤
You’re my most favorite TH-cam creator ever since I stumbled upon your videos. Your content is elegant, chic and full of creative ideas. Keep them coming ❤
Whit..compliments...Your house...Is a dream..🌌🌌🌌🌌
Hello Kevin Lee Jacob,
I just was watching your video cooking Channel,
Beautiful flower pot arranging and home made food, callm music play on the back ground what A blessing and joyful atmosphere,God blessing 😊 🙏
My sister and I used to go to Empire casino in Yonkers NY a few Sunday mornings every month. We would start with a Bloody Mary before our slots play. They used Ocean Spray tomato juice and it made the best Bloody Mary I ever tasted. You can’t get it in the store but it was so delicious. We would only spend an hour play a hundred dollars and we usually won. Then it was off to brunch at one of our favorite restaurants

everything you teach inspires me to have more friends over!!! lovely!! thanks Kevin
I’m having weekend guest and I’m excited to make these dishes
Bloody Mary, that's really a brunch!! As always, thank you 💚
Hi Kevin. I do hope Mr. Fox appreciates your "dry wit!" Hi from Gold Coast, Australia. 🤩🤩🤩🤠🦘🦘🦘
Kevin thank you for a lovely evening I really enjoyed your company and now to try your bloody Mary cheers from Ireland
Avery! What did you steal off the counter? Loved this video. Absolutely beautiful presentation plus fun with 🐔 🚗. I especially enjoy the "spend the day" video's;
Avery, work outs, driving, store, flower arrangements, piano playing & of course all the wonderful recipe presentations. Thank You Kevin!
I love brunch entertaining. This is an easy/elegant meal to serve. Thank you. LOVE the '60's dessert! PS...adding a little green olive juice to your Bloody Mary mixture is a nice hit. Also, our neighbors love a "Tequila Mary" which is a version I had not heard of. If you are a tequila drinker, your guests may enjoy this twist. Everything else is the same!
I can't wait to try everyone of these recipes! Thank you, Kevin!
230310. Off the subject Jane and I are enjoying our morning offer as well as enjoying our blooming forsythia which we cut and brought in per your suggestion. Had you not told us about this we would not have given it a try.
We both enjoy your relaxed demeanor as we follow you through your cooking adventures. And they are adventures aren’t they but fun to follow.
Stay safe and continue to have fun and share your cooking.
amazing menu---you encourage us with your calm and practical approach
I smile when I see you post a video. You are so soothing. 🥰
Mr. Fox and I have good taste. My freezer always has baked oatmeal bars since I saw your first video. I like them for an afternoon snack with tea - split in half, add a smear of peanut butter, a drizzle of honey, and a sprinkle of chopped pecans. Of course, I cut mine much smaller than yours. Yum, yum! Beautiful table. Kudos.
Eggs/chickens - Hilarious! I enjoy your wit.😊
Hi Kevin. Wishing you well my friend. I love a brunch. Delicious as always. Love the flower arrangement.
My favorite thing about your menus, is that the cook can enjoy the elegant party with their guests!❤❤❤ You are a joy to watch, too!
Kevin! Everything is spectacular! I love the menu, everything is very appetizing! You say you are not a floral designer, but I would never know it by the way you put together the beautiful centerpiece! Love your channel, and I hope to make these recipes soon. 💓
What a nice idea to lay the table! You are the best!
Just realized how funny you are! I laughed out loud!! Those are lucky chickens!! 😂❤❤❤
Fantastic menu.....thanks for giving me the confidence to try invite my choir for brunch!
Kevin, love every one of your dishes today. Thanks so much for sharing
I love all your make ahead party recipes! Wish I was there to test out that Bloody 🤪As long as it has enough horseradish I bet it's a home run. I am spoiling my chickens with extra treats and love right now so they don't go on strike, $7 is a lot for a dozen eggs! Have a wonderful weekend.
The Blueberry Oatmeal squares look delicious! This is a recipe that I will make! I love 💕 your recipes!
I find your videos very rewarding the way you arrange your flowers colours are so important feast for the eye's if you will blue china glittering cutlery and fantastic food for your friends
I love oatmeal and have never made a baked oatmeal dish. Looks wonderful.
I love your videos. Lovely but very realistic and doable. Cool whip! Who knew! You are a treasure! Thank you. 💕
You might not be a professional florist but hey! What a beautiful arrangement! 😍
I like you elegant simpleness!
Just wanted to let you know I loved everything you've made today, including the beautiful flower arrangement. I'm also extremely jealous of those lucky chickens; shopping at tiffany's was the icing on the cake for me!😅 Also thank you for always doing the celcius in your oven settings, that's what we use in the uk. Wales is where I'm from. I look forward to your videos you're always so lovely, kind and explain your cooking process ina way that makes it easy to remember what and how to do the dish. Thank you ❤
Your egg jokes are truthfully hilarious😂🤣
Thank you for your awesome make ahead brunch video!! I loved it all!! ❤
David Sinclair is an aging expert. He says that wild or stressed fruits and vegetables are more nutritious than blemish free, perfect ones. They are forced to put on their A game to survive. Similarly, when we stress our system with intermittent fasting and working out, sauna and ice baths, we put on our A game 😊
I have made the blueberry baked oatmeal twice now. The first time was for an ice fishing expedition and it was a hit. The second time was just to have on hand in the freezer. I increased the cinnamon and its so good. Next time I think I’ll try adding walnuts. Thanks Kevin for another winner!
Hi Kevin, 👋
How are you?
I'm new to your program, but I thoroughly enjoyed watching you cooking with so many different scrumptious recipes of yours. Not to mention I also enjoyed your floral arrangements so artistic as much as you've chosen your mixed & match tablecloth after the tableware is beautifully arranged. Your so dignified and elegant cook.
Til then, keep on rolling those delicious recipes of your's and happy cooking.
Kindest, regards
Mary from Australia 🇦🇺
Oh I loved this one Kevin! As always you soothe my soul and give me such good ideas! Thank you!
Your brunch delights all the senses - yum!
