@@LaciFayTheVintageGirlNextDoor hi
@@LaciFayTheVintageGirlNextDoor we have a cat too, & she loves to get involved occasionally, a week ago she tried to send a pay-pal for $1,000 extra, on item I was buying, she ran across keyboard while my wife was doing transaction. lol
When we moved into this neighborhood in October, a lady came over with a batch of homemade Pumpkin cookies to welcome us. I knew we were home! Our house was built in 1958 and has all the charm of that era. Our neighbors are so kind. I will be making cookies for them this year. Thanks for the recipes!
Laci- I love how your videos are calm and natural without any obnoxious music or frequent cuts
Wow! I just noticed that your almost at 100k subscribers! I subscribe only just 8 months ago at 56,000 subs! Im glad that there's so many people who still enjoy the 50s!
Yes!! Ahh thanks so much for being here. I’m glad too!
@@LaciFayTheVintageGirlNextDoor congrats on all of the subs u deserve it love your channel
Lol lacy fay
Back in the 50’s my mom worked in a jewelry store. She made old fashioned Hershey’s fudge, pulled peanut brittle and divinity. They were stored in wax paper in dress boxes. She made platters of candy for the jewelry store. Needless to say people came into the store just to sample her candy. My dad bought her a gold Rolex watch from that store.
Started my day out with your video of Neighborhood treats. My Mom always made spritz cookies for us as kids. I have her press and so I share my Spritz cookies to my brother and his grown children every Christmas along with Mom's soft sugar cookie. I add a pineapple cookie, too. We always had to have that at Christmas. The guys in the family love that cookie the best. I do this in honor of my Mom who has passed away to keep her memory alive at Christmas. I think this year, I will actually use the Christmas apron she made for me when I got married. It has always been in the closet never used. You inspire me so much, Laci. That is exactly why your channel is growing. You are sweet, genuine and remind us of a time when life was simpler and good.
I dont know why but watching any of your videos is calming to me.
I love the vintage-style manicure 💅
Thank you!!
That apron looks so festive, I love it!
I LOVE your videos, your style, your presentation, everything‼️
Our home was built in 1936. Over the last 40 years we've lived here, we've attempted to keep the integrity of the vintage style in any re-do we've done.
I also use a Better Home and Gardens cookbook that my parents received as a wedding gift in 1960‼️ My own family has been the benefactors of my 1960 recipes ❤️
Love that cookbook. I am 75. I used to make Christmas treats from that recipe book . There were a series of those cooks.
Laci Fay needs her own Netflix show. Somebody make that happen.
Oooh that’d be fun! What if it was kind of I love Lucy inspired?? I bet it’d be a hit
Yes!!!!!! Most definitely!!!!!!
Hmm, there was a sitcom back in the early '90s called "Hi Honey, I'm Home!" that was about a 1950s family living in the present day...
Exactly!
@@michigandon wow!I'll check it!
1959 was a great year.The year I was born! Enjoyed your show so much!
I'm really enjoying this throwback...not just the aesthetic of the 1950s, but you reaching out to your fellow neighbor seems like something that's unfortunately becoming history.
I love vintage baking/cooking!
Wow! You're turning into a pro, Girl! Great looking cookies and I'm sure they are yummy too. One thing I love about you and your lifestyle is that you have that old fashioned giving to neighbors like it used to be. That tradition would be wonderful if it came back in 2021. We all need a little bit of old fashion neighborly love these days.
I found that exact same cookie press at an estate sale last month. I was going to resell it, but your cute video changed my mind. I now look forward to using it this week. 🙂
This is the 3rd one of your videos that I've seen. Oh what fun it is to watch you . You are so full of energy. Thank you for being a positive person.
I can't get enough of Johnny Cash!!! LOVE him!
Love the sweater you were wearing when you made the spritz cookies.
Your cat is hilarious 🐈⬛ 😀 You look so festive for Christmas 🎄 Love your Santa pin 🎅🏻 Thanks for sharing some good old time recipes for the holidays too ☃️ Merry Christmas to you and your family ☃️🎄🎅🏻🎁
I usually do something similar, but I normally do mini-loaves of sweet bread. That fudge though! It looks great!
I absolutely love everything about this channel, I was 9 yrs old when that cookbook came out😌
So cool Laci !
Thank you!!
Hello laci! I just wanted to say that my family is decorating our house with 50’s stuff! Although we aren’t living like we’re in the 50’s, we just have 50’s decorations :). We were all so inspired by you, I love you!!❤️❤️
You are so pretty!....love this era when ladies looked so elegant.
Brings back memories 🎅🏻
Yessss another recipe! ☺️🍽️
And, obviously, I looooove your outfit. That apron is something and that brooch is so cute 😍
Yay! I’m so glad you enjoy them.
@@LaciFayTheVintageGirlNextDoor 😎nice
Johnny Cash is a hoot. He’s got such a big personality. I love how he always crashes your videos.
Thank you for bringing joy and peace to this holiday weekend, Laci! ❤️🎄
As your making those spritz cookies, I could taste them! Bought my cookie press at a Salvation army ( complete with box and all it's parts) my kids had a field day making cookies with that thing! It had a screw pump rather than a plunger, so a lot of laughter and scraps of dough that didn't make the grade that ended up in the " scrap bowl"! Thanks for the memories!
Great job! Beautiful brownies. I use my old Ronco Pasta Machine for making my homemade Butter Tin Cookies. And I recycle collected cookie tins for Christmas where I load them up with my homemade butter tin cookies. And people are always glad to open them and not see buttons or sewing supplies in them lol. And the kids love making sugar cookies and decorating them together. Super cute cookie press love it! So happy to see you having fun. Happy Holidays!
You must be a fabulous neighbor. My neighbor. Makes constant noise and got arrested the other day. England isn't all beautiful. 😳. You're such a good person
LOL this was fun, Merry Christmas to you and your family, Praying that 2021 is a WAY better year....
I must say this. Love your videos!!! They have inspired me....here's my thought your never too old to be or do what truly makes you happy no matter what others think. On another note you make me smile and laugh when you say "dude" to one of the cats! I just get a vision in my head of a 1950s house wife saying "dude"
The cookies look so yummy! Love your outfit and that apron is the absolute cutest! 🎄
Thank you for the wonderful recipes. Very nice video!
I have that cookbook and the Pyrex you put the fudge in. :) I am a new subscriber and I am loving your channel. I grew up in the 60's so this is so comforting to watch your videos. I miss the simplicity of that era. Try making Toffee Squares or bars from Betty Crocker. My grown kids still ask me to make them today. Merry Christmas to you and your family. You're a very lovely soul.
Merry Christmas, Laci! I have the same Christmas apron (minus the kitties) that you are wearing. I love vintage Christmas aprons. We put a table top tree on a vintage tablecloth covered table and then I pin the vintage aprons to the edge of the cloth to form a "skirt" around the table. It's fun to just look at them on display! I was impressed with how accurately you measure your ingredients when you bake. Very well done!!!
My Mom had that exact cookbook when I was young. She made 2 of those recipes back then for Christmas! Brought back great memories! I lost my Mom last Dec,and this was special 🥰
I have that one. I've been collecting the series from various yardsales and thrift stores. All of the recipes I've tried have gotten good feedback.
The fudge and spritz cookies look delicious and festive....the gingerbread cookies not so much, but they are more of an acquired taste as are molasses cookies, either you like them or not. Very nice of you to prepare something so cheery for your neighbors.
Thanks so much! The gingerbread ones are pretty mild.
I love when your cats appear in the videos and your neighbors are going to love your treats.
You are wonderful! God bless you! And god is the world the love!!!
Laci, I loved your outfit with the red sweater, yellow blouse and your hair up. I have many pictures of my mother and her friends from the 1940’s and you look like you stepped out of that era. I always loved the clothes during the war years, the girls always looked so feminine and cute. Your videos are cute and well done.
I really enjoy watching your baking videos, especially around Christmas. Love your outfits with the cute Christmas apron.
Love these type of videos
I remember my grandmother trying that recipe a few times in the late 60s early 70s and a lot of people really liked it. I didn’t like it because I really loved her creamy million dollar fudge that didn’t have the marshmallow cream in it. My grandmother also had the cookie press and made the spritz cookies too. This video and your channel brings back great memories.
Love the Blue Heaven dishes! I have a set from my childhood. Also have my mom's electric cookie press. I'm so going to make some spritz cookies and try out the soft gingerbread too!
Happy🎄Holidays Laci, I watched your Christmas house tour & was inspired to send you a little something in the mail to add to you Christmas decor.
I hope you enjoy them they should be arriving just before Christmas. I couldn't find a box where I could wish you a Merry Christmas🎄so it will come
to you with no note and that one is from me...Many blessings your way....
Laci. I LOVE YOUR HOUSE ITS SO EPICC
It's so sweet of you to treat your neighbors. Loved all the recipes and outfits you look so festive.
Hi Laci, I haven’t commented in quite some time, but I just had to on this one. This was such a fun walk down memory lane. We had the same Sunbeam mixer and cookie press. We made these recipes and more every Christmas. We still laugh about how my sister used to mangle the beaters by sticking the spatula in while it was running. You did a wonderful job - everything came out great! 😊❤️🎄
Beautiful! Like a time machine, takes me back!
Thank you ever so much Lacey. These are just perfect gifts and i followed along closely. TASTES like fudge 😆. I am trying all and sharing your film with friends. Again, thank you so much. You look like my Mother when i was a little girl. She looked like Lauren Bacall and dressed up everyday. I believe it was a given back then to look ladylike. Love to all.
THE INTRO IS TOO FUNNYYY! WILD CAT 😂
I would love if you did a house tour or told us your grandparents 50s stories 🧡
Fantasy Fudge is a favorite year after year. This is the recipe that you made!!
mmmmmm...now I want christmas cookies!!!...yummo!!.....a little tip for mixing dry ingredients instead of sifting- use a whisk to mix and the ingredients will distribute nicely..........love the cookie press.......thanks for sharing!!..:-D
Happy Christmas Lacey and vintage neighborhood,, just love love fifties forties sixties,,,the Xmas baking goodies was great so wish I was there to taste,🍝🧁🧁
I love your vintage kitchen and cooking. I used to stay with my grandma for a week and cook these treats and more. It’s said she is now in hospice care due to COVID-19 I haven’t seen her for a bit.
Your introduction!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Dying!!!!!
Lol right?! He’s getting desperate 😂
@@LaciFayTheVintageGirlNextDoor I must have rewatched it over ten times!!! Love your vids!
I made the soft gingerbread cookie recipe you shared in this video. I love soft gingerbread cookies but have never made them myself. This recipe was so yummy!
Happy Monday 🎄🎅🏻
Lovely Christmas outfits , pins and adorable kitty apron. Always enjoy your sweet smile and videos 😊
Love that apron.
Your kitty is adorable.
Always enjoy your videos very much! Thank you for all your hard work! Many Christmas Blessings to you and your family 🎄♥️🙏🤗
If the 1950s were a show, Laci Fay would be the gracious hostess, she needs a contract with a major studio, love her show ❤️

Omgggg I just love your outift!!! And that's so kind of u to make treats for your neighbors ❤
Saying omg it's a sin!
That cookie press is so cool - everything looks amazing!
Is a relaxing video ,my mother had the same sunbeam mixer.Like vintage to ,watching from Ontario.Your kitchen reminds me of my grandparents in the 70s.My grandfather was a cook for the railroad so don't rember my grandmother ever being in the kitchen.Nice video.Although he always had the radio on.😉
Hey sweetheart
That fudge looks EPIC!!!😋 We love our fudge here in the UK, that one made with marshmallow fluff is definitely gonna be tried out for sure doll! How beautiful the treats look on those plates... Your neighbours are very lucky! 🎁🎄🎄🎄Much love Xxx
Yay! Thanks so much friend. I think you will like it!!
I love your oven! My grandmother had one just like it but she had a hidden space for pancakes right where your mixer is sitting on top of. She also had a disc covers for all four of her heating disc. She even had holiday ones for Christmas and Easter and I remember a Christmas it was a poinsettia.
Ha ha kitty has the Christmas zoomies
How adorable, they look beautiful!
I actually collect those cookbooks. They are my FAVORITE!! I didn't even know about the Holiday one. Just ordered it on Ebay for 12 bucks! More than I normally pay for those, but OMG I NEED THAT!! Thank you! Your videos are the best!
😄I always look forward to your intros (and not only).🤗👍
Lovely video, that green dress looks fabulous on you,you look stunning.
My grandmother makes a similar fudge except it’s Peanut Butter not Chocolate. And I have that cookie press! My grandmother gave it to me! I have the box and everything! I love it!!
I really enjoyed this video. I'm going to write down the recipes because I know several people that would love a Christmas plate with treats. I enjoyed watching you use your vintage mixer too!
If you chill the spritz dough before you bake it is easier to control the browning on them.
Loved this. :) I just made my great grandma's fudge, and I just can't imagine a fudge without walnuts. 😅 I was happy to see the walnuts included.
Thanks for another great video
Thank you!!
Yikes I have to start on my cookies thanks for sharing and as always love your wardrobe 🎄
Your nails ROCK!!!😍😍😍Love them🥰I like how calm you stay while baking,can't say the same about myself😂I love your sweet calm spirit.Merry Christmas 🌲
I wish I was your actual neighbor. What fun that would be.
Lovely presentation! Informative and delicious ❤️💚👏🏼
Great recipes and your plates are the cutest!
Thanks so much! I was glad I found them!

"Now that's comedy"

Yummy! Love your videos as always ❤
