Greetings Kate and Alex from the South Side Girls! We absolutely loved the video and are pleased you enjoyed the package! You are so right, Liz is a an absolute Hoot and fun to be around. How about you surprise us? Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year! --- Liz, Bev, Karen and Nan
Kate, I forgot to mention that Nan is the one who commented that I'm a hoot and fun to be with. I didn't write that about myself. Oh, and the rib roast dinner we ate before watching your video was lovely. Lol
Hey Girls!! I am so pleased to hear you enjoyed this video! Can't say thank you enough for this awesome box. I bet! You all sound like great fun to be around. Yes I would love to. Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year too! ❤️
@@emsparamedic5183 Haha no worries. I did guess it was one of the others who wrote that about you 😂 Glad you enjoyed your roast! You will have to send me a picture of you all one time so I put a face to the names 😀
Worth it just to see Alex in the elf hat. My son is also "an Alex." You two are appreciative and respectful whether you like your treats or not. My favorite British young duo to tune into for "unboxing" and"trying snacks."
What I'm finding so fascinating with your videos is how different the regional products are in various parts of the USA. I haven't seen many of these items as I live in California
So am I from Southern California and there are some things they had in that box, I never of. I have good friends living in Pennsylvania, I should visit my friends because they actually live close to Amish country and my friends don’t even know each other they don’t know (I should tell them) they both have relatives in the same city I live in. I like to buy locally made chocolates or candies or any kinds of specialty foods around California that you can’t find in a grocery store chain. Or I go to World Market and buy the chocolates from Germany or the UK!
Our.somewhat equivalent to a crumpet is called an "English muffin" here. Although, if memory serves, crumpets are softer. English muffins are eaten toasted at breakfast (in fact, are fairly inedible "raw") topped with butter and/or jam. English muffins have a very different rubbery texture and taste than the flaky biscuits, which are buttered (or covered with gravy in the South), and usually eaten with dinner.
Apple butter is also good on cottage cheese. If you come to the US to visit, you should go to Kitxhen Kettle in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. When they make apple butter, you can smell it for miles.
My mom used to get together with her sisters, and they'd cook in a big kettle over a fire outdoors, boiling it down, then adding cinnamon, and a few other spices. You nailed it about it being spreadable, for toast, crumpets. scones, etc. You're getting a sampler of a good variety of "-butters". My favorite is apple butter. but they're ALL good!! Thank you, Liz, (and all of the South-Side Ladies) for providing us all with the fun of seeing you two discover many of the candies from "home" (U.S.) in the U.K.
@@ThisWithThem I don't know if it was included but my all time favorite "butter" is pear butter. If it wasn't included I would highly recommend finding some. Delicious.
OMG! Yes apple butter goes on everything in my house. I put it on toast, ice cream, and I'll use it in place of jam/jellies. Even great as filling to mix with cinnamon in a home made cinnamon roll.
When I heard the "Southside" I didn't think they meant MY Southside! How cool!!! I also live on the Southside of Saint Louis, so this video made me excited. Yay :) Glad you enjoyed the treats.
Hey kids excellent video! Amish anything is wonderful! You both look so great! A little story about the Cardinals .... my Dad many many years ago was a local baseball pitcher and a really good one so they say...anyway je lived in Vermillion South Dakota and the St. Louis Cardinals was very far away but he got a chance to try out for them and he made the team!! 3 days before his 1st time playing with them his father who was a farmer got very ill and my Dad had to return home to farm, but he said he never regretted it. He was a lifelong baseball fan tho!!
Hey Madonna! We loved all of the Amish things we received. Oh wow. That’s amazing he made the team!! What an incredible achievement. I’m glad he never regretted it though! Family is the best ♥️
I've watched a few of your videos over the last few months, but have just become a subscriber. I loved how sweet and respectful you are with one another. Funny, but, when I first started watching, I thought you were a young couple. I didn't realize you are brother and sister until later. Cheers!
Watching this video actually brought a tear to my eye. Both of you, Kate & Alex, are so lovely to watch. You’re both so down to earth and funny, that I cannot help but smile every time I watch another of your videos. Those Southside Ladies are so sweet. I can tell they absolutely adore you. Happy Christmas from Tamara in San Diego, California
Hahaha! "I'm normal. You're mental." That was a great statement by Alex! (That's like something I'd say to a great friend, or my sister(s)!) I'm from the St. Louis area, just on further north-east, on the Illinois side. You should take your show on the road - there's so much to do in St. Louis, Missouri, that are totally FREE! The St. Louis Zoo is one of the Best in the U.S. There's the Basilica Cathedral (with the largest glass mosaics in the world, outside of Russia), the St. Louis Arch (the Gateway to the West) There's great food here, too, that St. Louis is famous for: toasted ravioli, in Little Italy, at Anthonio's Taverna; BBQ - smoked ribs with BBQ sauces; St. Louis-style pizza, etc. Anyway, I think you should do this as a travel-vlog for a Mid-America food trip! P.S. I, too, am a big Welch's fan - and it's not just for little kids. It's for big kids, too!! :-)
Haha 😂😂 ah no way. That’s awesome. We definitely want to take this show on the road one day!! That would just be so awesome. Oh wow. St. Louis sounds amazing 😍 hopefully one day we can visit! 🤞🏻🤞🏻
My grandmother always buys us an ornament every year that signifies something that happens that year in our lives. From our first Christmas as babies, to graduation from high school or college, marriage, etc. The idea is that when we move out on our own we will have ornaments for our own trees and have all those memories every time we decorate it. Merry Christmas you guys! Love the hat!
Yeah, fruit butters are just a variation on jam. Usually the difference is that jam/jelly is made with fruit juice only and pectin, while fruit butters are made with the whole fruit. Apple butter is absolutely the most common/popular one. I've never seen cherry butter, peach butter. Looks delicious though. you're right, most of the time put on toast, but putting on pancakes or waffles is also a great idea. Putting on crackers would be less common.
Having deep family ties to St. Louis, the nostalgic treats are such a reminder of my Midwestern childhood. The Southside Girls (my favorite aunt lived on the Southside for many years) sent you some awesome choices! Y’all are so lucky!
I'm from St. Louis (I now live in Mississippi) and you will not find a better group of folks than the ones who live on the South Side. The are amazing people! I moved to that area as an adult and was welcomed like and old friend. I love seeing all the goodies from home.
I loooove sixlets! They were definitely a childhood favorite but I sometimes still get them because they’re so good! I think that the candy shell and the chocolate is a perfect ratio!
What a lovely box! Apple butter and pumpkin butter on toast reminds me of winter vacation at my grandmas house as a kid. Enjoy all those spreads(butters)!
Hi Kate and Alex! 😊 I would use the butters on your Scones our Biscuits. I adored this video, so much variety this time and so fun! Thanks for the laughs, I always get excited when I see a new video is up! 💞
Watching u guys makes me think of my brother Felix. We lost him 2 years ago. He loved Christmas n candy. But the relationship u 2 have is really amazing. This time of year is very difficult. But u 2 make me think of all the great memories my bro n I had.
What an absolutely amazing box ! Liz and the south side girls , thanks for sending them such a wonderfully done box. 👏. I really enjoyed watching this and the looks on both your faces. 😊. Christmas is the time for giving and Liz and the south side girls did a great job. Happy Christmas 🎄🎁❄️💕
They are so lovely aren’t they. Far too kind to us. So pleased you enjoyed this box and our video 😀 they really did. Thank you for acknowledging them too ♥️ Merry Christmas to you too 🎄🎅🏻♥️
InTheKitchenWithKate - I’m amazed at how sweet and thoughtful they have been. Lovelies 💕. I added another comment on how you can use the butters. I’m going to be late sending a box. But it will get there lol. So sorry I’m behind mailing it. 😊
My 3 year old really enjoyed watching this video with me ❤️ I think she wishes she was taste testing with you lol. I think this was my favorite unboxing.
Growing up, even now at 26, my parents always put a Pez into my stocking. Along with a tooth brush, small travel tooth paste, and lottery scratch offs.
Also apple butter is best served warm and spread on a southern style biscuit with butter! It's my favorite! I would always love to eat it on my Oma's German pancakes!!
Haha! Alex eating those Pringles with the wrist flip... ”much too good for children” “everything reminds you of much too good for children” that was too cute lol! #LovedIt
My mother used to make apple butter and pear butter. She would always put a cinnamon stick in each jar. We would spread them on pancakes and they were sooooo good. Thanks for bringing back memories from over 50 years ago.
Apple butter is life. My grandmother always made it and canned her own every summer. We ate it on toast, biscuits, corn muffins. She also used it to make an old fashioned apple cake.
Russell Stover makes the BEST sugar free chocolates. I will be making a box of sugar free candy for you guys in February and will be sending a ton of their sugar free flavors over. The best thing about them is they are made with Stevia and not Isomalt, so they don't make you sick if you over indulge!
I actually saw a lot of their sugar free chocolate when I visited New York! Never tried any though. Ah no way!! That would be awesome. Thank you so much. Oh cool. I hate that sick feeling
Lady Aphelion I have been meaning to try these! I have issues digesting sugar now. I love these videos but I get quite jealous watching them eat candy, lol. I do miss my British candy.
When I was pregnant I had gestational diabetes but my craving was sweets..I HAD to have sweets. My boyfriend used to bring me Russell stovers sugar free chocolates. So good
Hey Kate and Alex, I was gonna send you a Christmas box but money got a little tight. I will be sending a box your way in the new year, I actually have something special for Alex to try. Also I’ll make sure to send Kate some sour patch kids. Love you both so much. Love all your videos, I binge watch every other week. Hope you guys have a very Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year. 🎄🎄🎄💕💕💕
It's cool to watch something like this where the sender also lives in st Louis like me. Also every year my family goes to an apple butter festival in kimswick mo. I like it with with normal butter on toast
Yay glad you enjoyed it! Must be a cooler experience when the box is from the same state as you! Oh wow. That’s so cool. Me too. Such a nice jersey and ticket
I used to work in the bakery as a pie baker at the blue owl In Kimmswick. I am also from the St. Louis area. Small world.I currently live about 30 minutes south of St. Louis.
This was one of my favorite videos. My father's side of our family is in St. Louis, so many memories for me of our vacations there (we lived in Cleveland, Ohio). Liz and her friends are close to my age. I fondly remember so many of those candies. The Clark bar was a full-size bar when I was young. The commercials for them featured a camel lamenting that he wanted a Clark bar. The flavored butters and jams will all be enjoyed as spreads, preferably on a warm item. Your idea of pancakes is awesome! I'm looking forward to the other boxes you've received. And, of course, I'll be watching WTF to see if Kate can be the champ this time :-) Have a wonderful Christmas and a safe new year!
Thanks Carla, so glad you enjoyed it! Haha no way, what a great advert. Mmm yes! Definitely want to try them with warm foods! Yeah and definitely on top of pancakes 😋 Thanks Carla, i hope you enjoy all of our videos to come ☺️ I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and a safe New Year too
Apple butter is something my church made as a fun raiser in the fall of the year. It was cook in a Cooper kettle outside over a fire all day. Then it was placed in Mason jars and sold. The ingredients are apples, sugar, water and cinnamon. All the men and women in the church would meet the day before and peel the apples. The next day before day light we would start cooking and stirring the apples all day. So good on hot buttered biscuits.
I've never seen Sixlets torn open. You stick the package in your mouth, bite down in between them with your teeth, and then pull down. This causes one to burst through the end of the pack and pops it into your mouth. I think doing it this way makes them taste better 😉
When the kids go to the movie theater here in Pennsylvania they have a kid combo and it comes with a small drink, 2 scoops of popcorn and a small Welch's fruit snack (like the one in your video). Everything chocolate reminds me of "Much too good for children!"A lot of people love the apple butter, I've never tried any of them before but people do put it on toast, maybe a bagel but toast for sure. Yes, always use milk in your hot chocolate, so much better! I never liked whoopie pies until I tried a pumpkin one when I was in my Baking/Cake Decorating Pastry Arts class and they're so good!
Oh wow!!! Thats so cool. wish our cinema did that! Haha such a great film. Yeah definitely much better with milk! Tastes so watery if not. Mmm they sound amazing 😋
@@ThisWithThem See's range from old fashioned candies like Molasses chips to more modern chocolate truffles. (I'd skip the Molasses in assortments, if I were you, but mostly their chocolates are delicious and hand made with top grade ingredients.) Nuts and Chews (caramels) are a good assortment, as are truffle boxes.
@@bibliophile1319 You can order it online. You can also search for their various seasonal locations. We have a local one here in Northern Alabama that is open during the Christmas season.
Wotcher Kate and Alex, big fan of yours, I just wanted to say hi and to let you know that we have something similar to crumpets, called English muffins, the big differences are the fact that English muffins are made from dough, not batter, and they have a different cooking method. Love you guy , keep up the amazing work
What a great big box from Liz and the south side girls!!! This was such a great video with not only candies from the stores but also local stuff. I love sixlets! There’s something about it that makes it taste better than m&ms for me. The fruit butters are great on toast or on English muffins. Even on plain muffins they are great! Every time I watch these videos I just gotta go eat a snack hehe. Btw I like Alex’s elf hat! It’s very cutesy.
Amazing isn’t it! Those ladies are lovely. Absolutely loved this box. Oh really! I can see that. I really liked the orange ones. Mmm I must try them like that 👌🏻 haha I would need to go get a snack too. Yay glad you like it 😀
Hi, sweet adorable Kate. I bet you had fun trying a huge assortment of our Christmas treats from America. What's your honest opinion on caramel cookies? Have a good day, sweet adorable Kate. I love you, cutie pie.
When I was little sixlets were so addicting, but the chocolate wasn't that great. I think it was the style of the packaging that all the kiddos were hooked on. It was long and slim and easy to just pop 1 at a time in your mouth. BTW love you guys, I hope you both have an amazing Christmas & New Year!!💚
Another wonderful video! As for my Christmas tree, I also have a very eclectic tree with ornaments from my travels with my faves being from London. I've got the Union Jack, Underground, 2 royal Corgis, Tower Bridge and some others. I've also got ornaments from France, Italy, Belgium and Holland. ❤️
Love this video... Alex you look so cute in your elf hat💕🦋I don’t have a theme to my Christmas tree I have things from when I was little and things from my Moms childhood she isn’t with us anymore but putting her childhood ornaments on the tree brings her back bro me for the holidays 🦋💕🎄🎄🎄
Also, I love the hat and sweater you gave Alex! Kate always looks so very nice and Christmasy 👼🎄. The Butters you received are good on a number of things. Biscuits. Scones, waffles, pancakes, muffins, crackers, cheeses ( like Bri ) as well as using them on cooking meats. Example, the cherry, apple or peach flavors smeared on a pork roast ! I’ve done it and it tastes amazing 😉. Pork chops as well. Also can be used on chicken. Give it a go and see if you like them. 🤔😊
I have all my children’s home made ornaments on our tree. They made many over the years from school, church, etc. Even though most of them are grown now, they make sure every year to hang their own ornaments and fight over whose ornament with their picture on it is going to be hung on the front of the tree.... good times!
Oh... yes. Toast, crumpets, scones! Put the fruit butter on all the things! Yes! Waffles... pancakes, crepes... eggy bread- french toast here. It's cooked down longer than a jam or jelly, making it thicker and a 'butter'.

Haha. Ah no way! I love the name Alex! That’s very kind of you to say thank you. We really do try our best to be respectful ♥️
Tell Alex I said 'Hi!' - Alex
How great is that. Liz and the Southside girls did a terrific job of representing the best of the USA. Happy Christmas.
They really did! They're awesome! - Alex
What I'm finding so fascinating with your videos is how different the regional products are in various parts of the USA. I haven't seen many of these items as I live in California
It's amazing isn't we never knew there would be so many different products we could try! 😀 - Alex
So am I from Southern California and there are some things they had in that box, I never of. I have good friends living in Pennsylvania, I should visit my friends because they actually live close to Amish country and my friends don’t even know each other they don’t know (I should tell them) they both have relatives in the same city I live in. I like to buy locally made chocolates or candies or any kinds of specialty foods around California that you can’t find in a grocery store chain.

Lovely video. And 55 years of friendship is so lovely
Apple butter on toast 😋
😋😋 need to try this
Apple butter on warm corn muffins or warm American biscuits. Yum. Used instead of butter or use both if you want.
Our.somewhat equivalent to a crumpet is called an "English muffin" here.
Although, if memory serves, crumpets are softer.
English muffins are eaten toasted at breakfast (in fact, are fairly inedible "raw") topped with butter and/or jam.
English muffins have a very different rubbery texture and taste than the flaky biscuits, which are buttered (or covered with gravy in the South), and usually eaten with dinner.
Apple butter and peanut butter sandwiches. Mmmmmm
Apple butter is also good on cottage cheese. If you come to the US to visit, you should go to Kitxhen Kettle in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. When they make apple butter, you can smell it for miles.
Sixlets remind me of my older sister, they were her favorite candy when we were younger. Merry Christmas to you and your wonderful family.
Love when things have memories attached to them ♥️ Merry Christmas to you and your family too!
Thank you, Liz and Southside girls!! My best friend and I have been close for 60 years it is a joy!!
♥️♥️ That’s amazing. You are so lucky to have that friendship. I hope I can have that!

@@ThisWithThem I don't know if it was included but my all time favorite "butter" is pear butter. If it wasn't included I would highly recommend finding some. Delicious.
Ice Cubes go back to when I sold them in parent's store that was in the 60's oh my, memories, sounds divine!!
Amazing they are still around. A classic 👌🏻
Ice Cubes could be bought individually -- like penny candy -- although a more sophisticated tasting chocolate than most "penny candy."
OMG! Yes apple butter goes on everything in my house. I put it on toast, ice cream, and I'll use it in place of jam/jellies. Even great as filling to mix with cinnamon in a home made cinnamon roll.
Mmm on ice cream 😍 so many great ideas thank you.
InTheKitchenWithKate you're very welcome. 😊
You kids are so cute. No wonder Moms from all over want to send you sweets. Have a very blessed Christmas.
When I heard the "Southside" I didn't think they meant MY Southside! How cool!!! I also live on the Southside of Saint Louis, so this video made me excited. Yay :)
Glad you enjoyed the treats.
Hey kids excellent video! Amish anything is wonderful! You both look so great! A little story about the Cardinals .... my Dad many many years ago was a local baseball pitcher and a really good one so they say...anyway je lived in Vermillion South Dakota and the St. Louis Cardinals was very far away but he got a chance to try out for them and he made the team!! 3 days before his 1st time playing with them his father who was a farmer got very ill and my Dad had to return home to farm, but he said he never regretted it. He was a lifelong baseball fan tho!!

What a great idea. Wish we could get them here!
I am from St.Louis and live on the Southside. This was so fun to watch. Love love love Billy Goat chips!

My tree has ornaments from my travels, plus some vintage like Shiny Brite, and some collectible Christopher Radko.
A lot of ours are from travels too. So nice to look back at them aren’t they!! Oh wow. Amazing. I bet your tree looks lovely!
The flying saucers were one of the treats I brought home from England for my family to try because I've never seen those here in America.
Hi Kate and Alex! Merry Christmas! What a great video and how awesome are the South side Girls?
Hey Shearae! Thank you 😀 Merry Christmas to you too. They are so awesome. So lucky receiving this box! Wish I had friends like them
My 3 year old really enjoyed watching this video with me ❤️ I think she wishes she was taste testing with you lol. I think this was my favorite unboxing.

She’s amazing isn’t she!
OmG...that hat and sweater...I Love em!! You both are so fun to watch! Happy Holidays!💜💜
Yaay glad you loved them. I had so much fun picking them out haha 😆 thank you Kristine. So glad you enjoy watching. Happy holidays to you too ♥️
Haha! Alex eating those Pringles with the wrist flip...
”much too good for children” “everything reminds you of much too good for children” that was too cute lol! #LovedIt
Hahaha 😆 he was loving those. Hehe I love that quote from Matilda 😂
So glad you loved it!
I didn't realise how awkward that looked till I watched it back! But they were so good! - Alex
That was so sweet of the Southside Girls!
They’re so lovely!
My mother used to make apple butter and pear butter. She would always put a cinnamon stick in each jar. We would spread them on pancakes and they were sooooo good. Thanks for bringing back memories from over 50 years ago.
Pecan Delight is the best❣️❣️❣️
I get an ornament made every year with all of my children, husband and dogs name . we do a white tree with a lot of pink and gold glitter lol
Love that!! Yours sounds really pretty 😍
@@ThisWithThem thank you so much keep giving us great content! Love you guys!
We put the butters on our biscuits, English muffins etc.
Thank you
Apple butter is life. My grandmother always made it and canned her own every summer. We ate it on toast, biscuits, corn muffins. She also used it to make an old fashioned apple cake.
Russell Stover makes the BEST sugar free chocolates. I will be making a box of sugar free candy for you guys in February and will be sending a ton of their sugar free flavors over. The best thing about them is they are made with Stevia and not Isomalt, so they don't make you sick if you over indulge!
I actually saw a lot of their sugar free chocolate when I visited New York! Never tried any though. Ah no way!! That would be awesome. Thank you so much. Oh cool. I hate that sick feeling
Lady Aphelion I have been meaning to try these! I have issues digesting sugar now. I love these videos but I get quite jealous watching them eat candy, lol. I do miss my British candy.
I tried the ones that are sugar-free and they made me sick is the one with stevia better?Still be carful!!
Ikr?I love their Coconut Creme chocolates! :)
When I was pregnant I had gestational diabetes but my craving was sweets..I HAD to have sweets. My boyfriend used to bring me Russell stovers sugar free chocolates. So good
Did anyone hear him say"Amazballs" at 4:34?? Or is that just me
Haha nope. He said it 🤣🤣
Hailey W I say it all the time lmao
Yeah he did
Giuliana Rancic from 'E' channel, coined the phrase "Amazeballs" decades ago!
Like the ornament. Very thoughtful.
This was so cool. You got so much goodies. Loved the shirt Alex got.
Such a great box!!
You can put apple butter and those types of spreads into oatmeal. Swirl it in and it's delicious.
Sorry.....in a bowl of porridge.
Oh wow!! Great idea. Thank you 😍
Ooooh, I never thought of trying it in oatmeal! That sounds so good!
I've never tried it in oatmeal, I'll have to give that a test.Thanks.
I love your channel so much
Thank you ♥️♥️
What a sweet person to put that box together for you guys!
Liz and the girls are so wonderful!
Hey Kate and Alex,
I was gonna send you a Christmas box but money got a little tight. I will be sending a box your way in the new year, I actually have something special for Alex to try. Also I’ll make sure to send Kate some sour patch kids. Love you both so much. Love all your videos, I binge watch every other week. Hope you guys have a very Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year. 🎄🎄🎄💕💕💕
The butters are great spread on toast
👌🏻👌🏻 definitely going to give that a go! Thank you 😊
It's cool to watch something like this where the sender also lives in st Louis like me. Also every year my family goes to an apple butter festival in kimswick mo. I like it with with normal butter on toast
Also I love that she included her ticket and the jersey
Yay glad you enjoyed it! Must be a cooler experience when the box is from the same state as you! Oh wow. That’s so cool.
Me too. Such a nice jersey and ticket
Aiden, I got all of those butter and jam spreads at the Apple Butter Festival in Kimmswick this past October. You were spot on.
I used to work in the bakery as a pie baker at the blue owl In Kimmswick. I am also from the St. Louis area. Small world.I currently live about 30 minutes south of St. Louis.
@@treemarie213100 I loved it when I went to the Blue Owl! The pies were fantastic! I live in South StL County.
Also Kate...the whelch's snacks are that small because they would come in a box of probably 10. It makes them easy to put in lunch boxes.
I see. Thank you for explaining. Wish we got those handy packs here in the Uk!
Love the gifts you got Alex I think it suits him well
Yay I was beyond bored and here ya come to save the day!😘🤗😘
Yaaay! I hope you enjoy watching 😀😀
@@ThisWithThem this video is one of my favorites so far. You two are both so likeable, I just adore you both.💕
Oh same here 😒 boredom is terrible. Good thing we've got videos like this one 😁
@@bjaogh So glad you enjoy them! - Alex
@@chrissy316 That's awesome to hear so pleased you loved it! - Alex
apple butter is great on a peanut butter sandwich
Oh cool! Thanks William
Some the snacks you received I wanna try too..and I'm American
They were delicious. You really must try them!
This was one of my favorite videos. My father's side of our family is in St. Louis, so many memories for me of our vacations there (we lived in Cleveland, Ohio). Liz and her friends are close to my age. I fondly remember so many of those candies. The Clark bar was a full-size bar when I was young. The commercials for them featured a camel lamenting that he wanted a Clark bar. The flavored butters and jams will all be enjoyed as spreads, preferably on a warm item. Your idea of pancakes is awesome! I'm looking forward to the other boxes you've received. And, of course, I'll be watching WTF to see if Kate can be the champ this time :-) Have a wonderful Christmas and a safe new year!
Thanks Carla, so glad you enjoyed it! Haha no way, what a great advert. Mmm yes! Definitely want to try them with warm foods! Yeah and definitely on top of pancakes 😋 Thanks Carla, i hope you enjoy all of our videos to come ☺️ I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and a safe New Year too
Best type of vidoes 😍
Yaaay 😀🎉
Hi Kate and Alex😊😊love you guys❤❤❤
Hey Cindy!! ♥️ I hope you enjoyed this video 😀
@@ThisWithThem yes I did you guys are awesome😊😊😊
Apple butter is something my church made as a fun raiser in the fall of the year. It was cook in a Cooper kettle outside over a fire all day. Then it was placed in Mason jars and sold. The ingredients are apples, sugar, water and cinnamon. All the men and women in the church would meet the day before and peel the apples. The next day before day light we would start cooking and stirring the apples all day. So good on hot buttered biscuits.
Apple butter waffles blueberry butter on pancakes the possibilities are endless! Also great on warm biscuits and corn bread
I've never seen Sixlets torn open. You stick the package in your mouth, bite down in between them with your teeth, and then pull down. This causes one to burst through the end of the pack and pops it into your mouth. I think doing it this way makes them taste better 😉
Great idea!! Wish i did that now. Thanks for the tip 😀
Yesss I always do that
That's the way we did it as kids down south.
I loved these as a kid. I always pronounced it six lets
Fact.
Kate you’re going to need a larger hand bag 😂
Hahaha I know right 😂😂 I’m going to need to wheel a mini suitcase around 😂
When the kids go to the movie theater here in Pennsylvania they have a kid combo and it comes with a small drink, 2 scoops of popcorn and a small Welch's fruit snack (like the one in your video). Everything chocolate reminds me of "Much too good for children!"A lot of people love the apple butter, I've never tried any of them before but people do put it on toast, maybe a bagel but toast for sure. Yes, always use milk in your hot chocolate, so much better! I never liked whoopie pies until I tried a pumpkin one when I was in my Baking/Cake Decorating Pastry Arts class and they're so good!
Oh wow!!! Thats so cool. wish our cinema did that! Haha such a great film. Yeah definitely much better with milk! Tastes so watery if not. Mmm they sound amazing 😋
Wow what a great box. The Southside ladies did a great job. The Christmas presents were perfect. Another great video.
Normal Oreos are the best
😀
InTheKitchenWithKate you are my role model
Someone send them a box of Sees candy.
Mmm yet to try Sees candy!
@@ThisWithThem See's range from old fashioned candies like Molasses chips to more modern chocolate truffles.
(I'd skip the Molasses in assortments, if I were you, but mostly their chocolates are delicious and hand made with top grade ingredients.)
Nuts and Chews (caramels) are a good assortment, as are truffle boxes.
Sees is the BEST!!
@@bibliophile1319 You can order it online. You can also search for their various seasonal locations. We have a local one here in Northern Alabama that is open during the Christmas season.
eh Sees are a bit bland. Albanese candy is so much better.
Oh my apple butter and toast! Yum. You will love them! The fruit butters are slow cooked and seasoned so they end up so creamy almost. Enjoy
Wotcher Kate and Alex, big fan of yours, I just wanted to say hi and to let you know that we have something similar to crumpets, called English muffins, the big differences are the fact that English muffins are made from dough, not batter, and they have a different cooking method. Love you guy , keep up the amazing work
Fun fact : the billy goat hand made chips are ONLY $1.00 !!
No way!!
Clark jr is better than a butterfinger and the other thing you were trying to think of was a chick-o-stick
Yeah I think so too!! Yes that was it. Thank you 😀😀
This is the best box I've seen you open since I started watching your channel. What lovely ladies those Southside girls are
Incredible isn't it! They are so great
What a great big box from Liz and the south side girls!!! This was such a great video with not only candies from the stores but also local stuff. I love sixlets! There’s something about it that makes it taste better than m&ms for me. The fruit butters are great on toast or on English muffins. Even on plain muffins they are great! Every time I watch these videos I just gotta go eat a snack hehe. Btw I like Alex’s elf hat! It’s very cutesy.
Amazing isn’t it! Those ladies are lovely. Absolutely loved this box. Oh really! I can see that. I really liked the orange ones. Mmm I must try them like that 👌🏻 haha I would need to go get a snack too. Yay glad you like it 😀
First
Yaaaay! You’re so early. Thank you 😀
L
I my god you responded pls give me a shout out
Hi, sweet adorable Kate. I bet you had fun trying a huge assortment of our Christmas treats from America. What's your honest opinion on caramel cookies? Have a good day, sweet adorable Kate. I love you, cutie pie.
Hey Byron!! We really did. Such a great laugh too! I LOVE caramel cookies. Hope you have a good day too!
In America, fruit butters are usually spread onto buttered toast or crackers,...i've only had the Apple butter, and it's amazing on buttered toast
Thank you 😀 sounds amazing. Can’t wait to try it!
Flavored Butter is really just Jelly/Jam. Apple Butter is an American pass time. Usually good on toast. Homemade apple butter is the best
Thanks for the help 😀
When I was little sixlets were so addicting, but the chocolate wasn't that great. I think it was the style of the packaging that all the kiddos were hooked on. It was long and slim and easy to just pop 1 at a time in your mouth. BTW love you guys, I hope you both have an amazing Christmas & New Year!!💚
Yeah I agree. The way they are in the long thin strips! Thank you so much! I hope you have an amazing Christmas and new year too 🎄♥️
@@ThisWithThem Thank you so much Beautiful Kate & Handsome Alex xoxoxox
Another wonderful video! As for my Christmas tree, I also have a very eclectic tree with ornaments from my travels with my faves being from London. I've got the Union Jack, Underground, 2 royal Corgis, Tower Bridge and some others. I've also got ornaments from France, Italy, Belgium and Holland. ❤️
Thank you Tina! Ah i love that, i bet your tree looks lovely. Oh wow, thats so cool!! ❤️
Oh and you are correct about the butters. They are spreads for toast, biscuits, waffles\pancakes..etc!
These videos are always so entertaining. You guys are so much fun..
Thank you so much! So glad you think so
The intro with you making Alex more festive is so amazing and cute😂💗
I love when you get the American boxes! I'm from America and sometimes discover new candies from these videos :)
Amazing box! I love that there were unique and local items included.
Love this video... Alex you look so cute in your elf hat💕🦋I don’t have a theme to my Christmas tree I have things from when I was little and things from my Moms childhood she isn’t with us anymore but putting her childhood ornaments on the tree brings her back bro me for the holidays 🦋💕🎄🎄🎄
Also, I love the hat and sweater you gave Alex! Kate always looks so very nice and Christmasy 👼🎄. The Butters you received are good on a number of things. Biscuits. Scones, waffles, pancakes, muffins, crackers, cheeses ( like Bri ) as well as using them on cooking meats. Example, the cherry, apple or peach flavors smeared on a pork roast ! I’ve done it and it tastes amazing 😉. Pork chops as well. Also can be used on chicken. Give it a go and see if you like them. 🤔😊
Thank you Lynda, glad you love them! Ah thank you so much 🎄💕
I have all my children’s home made ornaments on our tree. They made many over the years from school, church, etc. Even though most of them are grown now, they make sure every year to hang their own ornaments and fight over whose ornament with their picture on it is going to be hung on the front of the tree.... good times!
Oh... yes. Toast, crumpets, scones! Put the fruit butter on all the things! Yes! Waffles... pancakes, crepes... eggy bread- french toast here.
It's cooked down longer than a jam or jelly, making it thicker and a 'butter'.
This was an epic box. Shoutout to the SouthSide girls.
Great vlog guys!
♥️♥️ such a great box!! Thank you 😀
