I loved the story of Doris Jean taking care of Granny. It occurred to me when Matt asked you if she was still alive and you said that she had been dead for years, that Doris Jean is still very much alive in the memories of those who knew her. Your telling the story to us will keep her alive now in our memories, and her goodness will live on. That’s why sharing the stories of our lives is so precious.
I enjoy these popsicle chats, so much. Casual conversation and simple things are all you need to lift your spirits! Thank you Tipper and Matt!
So glad you enjoy them Gary!
Matt you have my sympathy when it comes to the bees. My poor husband could be the only person within 100 miles and if there was only 1 bee it would track him down.
I love the sound of the wind through the leaves. Beautiful!
The ending thumbnail part was GREAT! 😂
Enjoyed this mornings TH-cam visit. ❤
So glad!
You and Matt are a cool fun couple. Bless you Both.
A funny story came to mind when Matt was talking about the eye doctor and his eyesight changing when he leaves: Our Internal Medicine doctor, who is long since retired, was a GEM of a man. We even nicknamed him "Marcus Welby", after the old TV Show, because he made house calls and was very fatherly. Anyway, my Mom was joking with him one time and said, "Dr. Egan, have you ever heard of people that have gone to the doctor and given a clean bill of health, then left and dropped dead"? Our doctor replied with , "Well, if that happens to you, don't come back and tell me about it".... HAHAHA...🙂
😀 Love that story LOL!
Prayers for Matt’s eye sight 🙏✝️🙏
Matt and Tipper are such a wonderful couple!!!!!🙂😄😋
Thank you Tipper for the inspiration! I’ve cooked a peach cobbler and cornbread several times lately and I’m planting a garden for the first time in years all because I’m inspired by you. I can’t wait for your cookbook to come out. Thank you for the wholesome entertainment (that’s so rare now a days). I’ve really enjoyed listening to you read two books so far. Thank you for sharing your beautiful family. Most of all I want to thank you for renewing my faith in humanity and for you leading by example to be a good God fearing person living a simple but extremely meaningful life!
You are so kind-thank you!
Love the wind in your trees and wind chimes. 😊
It’s nice to hear you two laughing and cutting up. 😊
😀
No more K-Marts. I really miss them too. Loved hearing the wind and your wind chimes.
Always an awesome day watching you both daily, funny, lovely life❣️
Do not stop sharing😔🥺
"197 degrees for the next four months...." LOL. That gave me the best laugh in days!! Matt feels about North Carolina summers the same way that I do about Texas summers....hatred! LOL
You both make me smile. Just love your channel ! you give so much inspiration .hi from lutz Florida USA
We call our chickens the "Little Raptors" because they're so much like what we think a little dinosaur would be like.
Love watching y'all. Matt is a hoot! And when you laugh with him it's so endearing.
Tipper your glass isn’t half full, your cup runneth over 😂❤😂❤😂❤😂
😀 It sure does! Thank you Thomas 😀
I like the sound of the wind and the leaves rustling. You and Matt I mean Spud make a great team together. A loving, working, cutting up and blessed relationship. A joy to watch.
Thank you 😀
Love watching you and your girls. I lived the life style like yours planting a big garden every year. I really miss those days every has passed now no one left not even my wife.All the people up in the mountains are gone it makes me sad . We would all get out on the porch and snap 5 or 6 bushels of beans.And the elders would tell
All kinds of stories Those were good times .
So glad you enjoy our videos 😀
Enjoyed having my morning coffee and watching this. It’s like having my coffee with good neighbors. It’s chilly this morning in south Louisiana. Sure it won’t last.
Glad you enjoyed visiting with us 😀
I love “the popsicle sessions” so much!😊 You guys are so genuine. It’s just lovely and refreshing to watch your channel. Best.
You are so kind-thank you 😀
You could name your TH-cam videos “The Popsicle Chats.” ❤️
I like what Matt said his grandpa said, I'm not planting on the moon I'm planting down yonder in the field. Haha
We miss the good ole days, too! 😢 But still, a lot of good people here & there. Lol
❤thank you for the video. I got stung by a big ol yellow & black bee years ago when I was in the barn & it felt like I got hit by a two by four on my back. I tore my shirt off & hollered & ran for the house. Never felt anything like that. It was bad. I wish I still lived there though because I was able to have a big garden & flowers around the house, chickens, horses & raised rabbits for meat & for selling babies at Easter time. Good life, all gone now. But that's why I love watching you all.
Bless you Sandy! We appreciate you!
LOL You Two " Poppy Sickles are US " TY for another Great Video !!
My daddy and momma talked like this…..worked crossword puzzle, ate ice cream. My husband never speaks.
I'm sorry. Thank you for visiting with us 😀
Coconut plank my daddy loved them.
Funny 😆-Matt just casually, straight face, out of the blue,"then it'll be 197degrees for four months!" Also Matt's story about his family planting on the wrong sign of the moon!!
There used to be a Belks in Siloam springs Arkansas my home.
I see that Mas doing all the work
I liked K-mart too. Auto and outdoors section was great. Plus seasonal things was so amazing.
It's Blackberry Winter! Cool weather now means good berries later.
Loved seeing this video again. Really enjoyed it .
They are called "Coconut Planks". I loved them.
My mom said the same thing about the wind. She says it's been the windiest year or two ever in her lifetime. Love your videos ❤
What a lucky chance I have had stumbling across your channel. Its heartwarming and soul filling to see heartland America in such good hands..Down here in Western Australia we nearly only see stuff about crazy politicians and mass shootings in the media about America so its re-assuring that we are all not that unlike..we want to live in peace raise our families and leave this place better than we found it..Thank You Tipper n Matt....
This is one citizen that stopped watching the news & regular TV. We finally got the cable cut cause my daughter was tired of paying the bill. For better part of 4 years, I have I only used the internet & watch what I enjoy & find uplifting. If a hurricane is brewing, someone is sure to let me know.
All the sensational events are located in selected areas, it seems. 95% of the country is normal, down to earth folks.
Glad you enjoyed the video 😀
@@kateburk2168 I watch NO news! I'm assuming I won't need it to find out the really important stuff. Like nuclear annihilation!
I think you’re right about the wind. I don’t remember having a windier spring.
So enjoy your conversations!!
I agree about the wind!! We moved to NC from WV three years ago and this is the windiest place I have ever been. My brother has lived here almost 40 years and even he says it is the windiest he has ever seen!!
And my husband's favorite snack is sliced raw potato with salt. He will eat a whole potato at a time.
Hi. Things are popping in the garden. I swear I saw double snowballs growing along the creek bank. Am I seeing things?😂 Lantana loves the heat. An author I want to share. Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings and also Gene-Stratton Porter. Books I’ve loved from childhood. Marjorie wrote about what she called Florida Crackers. 😂 Love, love Matt sharing about not planting on the moon, but the earth. Scuppernong grapes grew wild in Virginia. They were tasty as were the Paw Paws along the river bank. We share such a rich history between us even though 40 years apart. I love you two and watching the love you have for each other, and this allows me to escape from the horror of what’s going on in our beloved country.❤
I just have to laugh at the high speed video. Oh! If only we could work that fast in real life, we'd get so much more done. Lol
😀
When Matt said “you just about have to shoot them” I was thinking the same thing when he said it. We seen one on the job the other day and I told a guy “ if I had a saddle I’d ride it”. They are big bees. Keep up the good work.
😀 I'll have to share that with Matt-he'll love it. They are so big! Now I'm going to think of them wearing a saddle 😀
Tipper, Matt's a hoot! My husband said, "I like him, he's a real person." I'm glad ya'll are having fun!😀
So glad yall enjoyed this one 😀
You guys are great. You all make me laugh 😂
Those grapes you like make a good jam/jelly spread.
I remember the Blue light specials at Kmart.
Scuppernongs are delicious, I grew up eating them. In Georgia our slang pronunciation was Scup-nuns.
'K' mart, brings back memories.
They had blue light specials.
Love your videos keep up the good work 👍
Thank you!!
I appreciate that you have a formula closing for your videos, because it reminds me that I want to hit the "like" button. Otherwise, I get so caught up in the conversation, I might forget. But when I hear the words "celebrate Appalachia," that's my cue to hit 👍.
I appreciate you liking them-that really helps 😀 Thank you for watching!!
No pain no gain
Love the wind chimes and the playful fussing with Matt. Enjoy the cake❤
I love Matt's sense of humor 😊
😀
Thanks for the video fun listening to your work plans. Love to see Matt in the videos. He’s pretty funny.
I love watching your little blooper parts at the ends of the most recent videos with you and Matt. It shows how much y'all still love each other and have fun being together. So nice to see ❤😊
I remember that treat I can't think of the name of it either
Matt has a dry since of Humor 😂
We would love to meet papaw toney!…we don’t have a k-mart, have not had one for years…I thank Sears bought out K-Mart or K-Mart bought out Sears…loved both stores.
When I was pregnant with my first child, I did just like you Tipper, and made myself sick eating 🍇 grapes. I couldn’t stop! 😅 I had forgotten about that until you just mentioned your own situation. 😂
"Neopolitans" Tipper. The coconut candy.
Matt is a funny guy! I love it. Have a great night you two!🥰✌🏼🇺🇸
Thank you 😀
Hello thank you for that lovely video love to you all xx🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
Taters and ramps are the best! Love them!
Watching this latest one, and it occurred to me…you could call these segments “Popsicle Ponderings” ! Love y’all!
Enjoyed visiting with you both, yes it’s about plantin time here to. Love y’all’s humor, I can’t see good anymore either Matt. Great video! Good luck with Katie’s cake. Lol
Thanks for sharing. 😇🙏🏻❤️🙌🏻
😀 Thank you!
You guys are so cute!!!! Have a wonderful day.
Love love you all!
I couldn't see either!!!!! My eye Dr changed my glasses and I still couldn't see anything!!! Changed Drs and I had cataracts!!! Got them removed and vision is wonderful!! Before I couldn't even see road signs.
I saw something on Facebook about muscadines being ripe and I thought, not in early spring. Then I remembered it's almost September but watching your videos I was thinking it's early spring like in this video.
Take Matt to Dollar Tree for glasses, that’s where I get mine.
Maybe they’re just called Coconut Bar? I love those, too! Our KMart(or KMartS as my aunt called it lol) went out a few years ago. I miss it, too. I used to find the cutest clothes for my little girls and later for my Grand daughters.
Poppy Sickles Pow Wow's
That lantana is an invasive flower. So if you wanna fill in a good size space it will work.
Tipper you are the cream of the crop…that is what my father would say.
You are so kind!
Garden beds fixed for Planting & Flowers growing & All looks SO Nice!! So ENJOYED ANOTHER POPSICLE TIME WITH You & Matt. We were under a Freeze & Frost Warning the End of last wk. In My area..Now it's trying to warm Up, Wishing For A Good Strong Breeze!! To Humid Already. So much I want to share back about Your conversation but would take a Book.. God Bless You on Your Book Signing Tipper!! Hope You & Matt & Katie Enjoyed Her Carrot Cake.
Thank you Elaine!!
My mother would not plant until the earth was warm ! She was a Henson cove native !
I wish I had taken pictures of my parents gardens!! They were amazing!!
We have a freeze warning tonight in Mansfield
We had 2 days last week was in the upper 80s and beautiful here in VA.
Now we’re back to 40s at night. We got some rain but not nearly what they forecasted. So dry and windy here we had fire warnings all week.
Y’all’s garden is looking great!
My family will not eat squash unless it’s fried in bacon grease with onions. Just the way my nanny cooked it.
As much as he loves it, he can’t have too much because of blood pressure and cholesterol.
I tell him he cheats enough all week long!!
Hmm..Katie is cooking. If you find Corie polishing jewelry in the basement you will know we are in the twilight zone lol. I had to buy us some outshine popsicles. So good. And yes Kmart sadly went the way of Montgomery Ward (Monkey Wards), Sears, and so many others. The day of online stores have taken over. The times they are achangin'. God bless yall. Have a great week!
Hope you have a good week too!!
Outshine should give y'all a commission😊 Those popsicles looked so delicious that I bought the grape and coconut. Grape is my favorite.
The Scuppernog Grape makes absolutely the best homemade grape jelly! If you grow them try making jelly. ❤️
Popsicle chat have a day love from TEXAS
Oh, my gracious, I ran across your channel about 3 weeks ago, and have watched a couple videos each evening. You have an absolutely beautiful family, and your garden is a slice of heaven. Here in Colorado, we are not even close to planting time. They are calling for 6+ inches of snow later this week. I do have my seedlings started, but they never get anywhere close to the beautiful plants you all have. Thank you so much for posting these videos and showing us all about Appalachia and your traditions.
I binge watch your TH-cam channel and watching you eat popsicles played heck with my popsicle stash ‘cause when y’all ate a popsicle, so did I. 😂 I had to stop buying them when I finished a box in a couple of days. Coconut are my favorites, too!
😀 Thank you Linda!
Y’all are hilarious and I love these chats. I sat down with a cup of coffee and enjoyed it! So sweet of Katie to cook for y’all today. I’m sure it was delicious. Your flowers are looking beautiful. Take care and God bless y’all. 😀❤️
Thank you for visiting with us 😀
Hi Tipper I just got your cookbook gifted to me I just love it and your blog watch it every chance I get Bless you and your family 🎉
Hope you enjoy it 😀 thank you!
I no longer like hot weather either here in Kentucky. This is our first year to use Grow bags. I enjoy watching y’all so much!
🤣 'NO IT AIN'T NICE, I CANT SEE!!" 🤣 same here! I remember a coworker at the snack machine telling me exactly what Matt just said. I had agreed to the same thing, different eye doctors 😵💫😵
😀
Y’all crack me up!
Raw potatoes we with salt..😍 adore you two..☮️
Love watching You and Matt, good conversation and Matt's funny comments!! Watching your videos are so relaxing and enjoyable!! Thank You for sharing!!
No one is perfect, you are okay in my eyes, life happens and all that you can do is make the
Best of your life. Do not listen to the haters just love your son and do your best that is all that anyone can do and ask of others. I believe that Beauty comes from the inside and I feel that you are a Beautiful person.
Your flowers are so pretty Tipper! Thanks for sharing your popsicle chat Tipper and Matt.
Thank you Robin 😀
I like the "Mom Story" about "grape or red" !! 😂 That is something I would do and have done!! Love listening to your garden talk and chats......just like visiting friends. Take care!
Thank you Stacey 😀
It's been cool here in Tulsa we had rain Fri nite.
What brand of popsicles do you eat? You should get a sponsorship for them. They always look so good. My husband and I found your channel and we love it. We have been binge watching. Another idea is to save your popsicle sticks to label your plants.
So glad you enjoy our videos! Thank you for watching! The brand is Outshine 😀
Ain't it interesting how a dog can become such a big part of our lives. Y'all bring Olive up in almost every video. Just like a grandbaby.
😀 It surely is! Thank you for watching!
It has been very windy out our way in NE Missouri. The fire risk is at high. I’m preparing my garden beds whenever I can get out there.
There's not less good minded people, their just not singing their own praises
Hi Tipper, amd Matt! Sorry I haven't commented in a bit, but I have been watching all your videos, of course! I agree with you that it's been really windy this spring! The sun feels wonderful but tha wind has a bite! I can wait to see how your garden comes out this year, seems like y'all really have a green thumb!
Thank you Paula!!
Love sitting and listening to you and Matt. Ok the end hilarious. Y'all are to cute.
