Every Sunday afternoon my Dad and I would slice potatoes paper thin and cook them on top of the wood stove. Used no fat, just the potato. You cannot imagine the taste of them. That was our special time. He made time for me. Loved him beyond any words that could be spoken. Matt and Tipper you bring such joy to this ole lady. Thank you.❤
I love to watch the tranquility between you and Matt. After all the yrs together you both seen so content just to be together. What a sweet love.
People like you is what made this nation great. God Bless
The CZcams channel you mentioned is “Early American” and their other channel is “Frontier Patriot” where they eat what was cooked and have a discussion about it and other things. They’re good channels and she’s amazing at open hearth cooking. They’re building a house and a open hearth will be a part of it.
So sweet of your hubby to cook for you-♥️❤️♥️
Thank you for visiting with us 😀
I remember my grandmother cooking on the wood stove!! My grandmother raised eight children never had a bathroom just an outhouse !! No running water had to carry water!! I have to believe my grandmother faith is what got that woman through her tough life!! It had to be her faith she read her bible every night!! My grandmother got up early to make the fire made the best hot coca that I have not tasted since !! My grandmother cooked all her meals on the old cook stove they were amazing!! I hope she has a special place in heaven she certainly deserves that!!
Thats the way I grew up! Sounds alot like my life. We never had inside plumbing. No water, no bathroom either. Momma cooked on a Wood Stove and it heated the house at the same time. We'd take a bath in big old round Washtub out back or either in the creek in the summer. In the winter we'd use what we called a Foot Tub! Had to draw water from the Well and heat on the stove for Cooking, washing dishes, taking baths, washing clothes, etc... Anything you needed water for had to be drawed out the Well. There were 13 of us and never was a slow rest day for Daddy, Momma or us older kids. I was next to the oldest. I had a brother older than me. Me being the oldest girl, my work was never done! I scrubbed many a diapers on a scrub board outside the house. I've worked my whole life. Now, my work days are gone. I'm enjoying my Great Grandchildren! God Bless. 🙏❤👏😁
@@karensweet6530 Thank you loved hearing a piece of your life!! Sounds just like my grandmother home the older kids had to scrub those nasty diapers winter time could be brutal!! You deserve to set back and enjoy the little ones!!
When I was young my family stayed in my grand mother's cabin all summer , my father came up on the weekends, my beloved mother was a master at cooking on a wood stove , the smells still radiate in my senses especially during these holidays, we also had a puffer belly stove outside to heat hot water for bathing . I'm 73 now and still dream about helping my mom in our cabin kitchen bake bread everyday and prepare meals , I love my current appliances, but wish I would get a chance some day to give my children and grand , great grandchildren the joy of a true family life with no phones etc ❤❤❤
It is so peaceful to watch and listen to you both. Thank you for sharing. Love it. ❤
Thank you so much!
I just love you Tipper. You talk just like my family. You said ray-man noodles instead of ra-men noodles. I just love how we talk. We are country (Appalachian) and we understand each other even if others don’t. The voices of North Carolina are my music. Have a good week and thank you for the cozy conversation.
I love you guys from Mo
My dad had a heavy construction company when I was growing up so his day started before dawn. In the winter he would get a fire roaring in the fireplace then wake us kids up for school. I remember being soooo cold and running into the living room to warm first the front then the back - then run back into the bedroom to get dressed. I never did ask why it had to be so cold in the house. We just never questioned our folks.
Thank you for watching!
You two remind me of my parents. For as far back as I can remember, later in the evening (when I should have been asleep) they sat at the kitchen table and had some toast and a cup of coffee. They never ran out of things to say to one another. This continued until the day my precious dad left this earth. Loved them both so much. ❤️🇨🇦
I haven't had a TV in years and years. I can't stand foul language and don't like being lied to. Why pay for it?
I haven't had a TV in 10 years
Back in the 50's I wanted to watch some Saturday morning cartoons, and my grandma said go outside and play, TV will make you stupid, to this day I don't watch TV. She was right, look at people and how they behave.
Amen!!!
For about 13 years now, ive either had zero tv (and internet, or just tv and an old fashioned antenna, to now just basic internet and tv with old fashioned antenna. I never turn it on, it’s set off in case internet goes out and I need to see something on news or weather/local station. I get like 18 channels. All major networks, couple pbs stations, various movie type channels. Haven’t checked in a long time, it’s a dust collector. I got the antenna online for like 30-45.00, wasn’t much.
I don't watch TV except the local news. I prefer CZcams. I can watch good clean entertainment by good people.
Sitting out here in my cabin that’s almost finished with no electricity and a kerosene lamp watching your video and the flames coming off my wood stove. Doesn’t get any better
Love that setting 😀
Congratulations on being almost finished. A dream come true.
We use my great grandmother’s oil lamps. Love them so much.
I love that Matt doesn't skimp on the butter!!!😂
I noticed that too 😂
Good morning to Tipper and Matt, just wanted to say when I saw Matt make his pressed coffee in the garage I about fell off my chair. I was thrilled to know that another person has discovered the amazing flavor of pressed coffee. It truly elevates the coffee to another level of texture and taste. I make my own pressed coffee as well and have described the texture as velvety and the taste is beyond compare to regular brewed coffee.
Then to watch him very obviously enjoy that amazing cup of coffee and make the comment that he hadn’t had such a good cup in a while ……….. just made my heart happy. Kudos to you, Matt. Would love to have a cuppa pressed coffee with you and Tipper around the woodstove one of these days.
You all remind me of my upbringing so much, GOD bless you all.
I gave my hubs the link to that coffee press as a Christmas gift for me 😊 I’d love to try that coffee!
Y’all are the sweetest cutest couple! I love watching you both! 💗
Thank you so much!!
I also have a wood cook stove- And I’m so thankful it almost runs me out of my little dwelling 💗
I love the heat 😀
Always love your talks with Matt. I dont subcribe to many channels but I have all of yours and the girls. The other channels I watch are Early American and Frontier Patriot. She cooks over an open fire on EA and then they eat what she cooks on FP. Lovely young Christian couple . They go over American history which I love. Every week we learn something new about you two. Matt cooking for himself and you wanting to learn to cook at a young age. Your videos are awesome and I would rather watch you than anything onTV.
I taught my 1-year-old great granddaughter how to make biscuits. They were rough looking, but she can make them. She loves cooking, and she caught on really quickly.
That is fantastic! Only 1 year old and she has an important survival skill already. She’s going to be successful in life and that makes you feel good as a grandmother!
🎉love your show, i was born in kentucky ,we used a wood cook stove.back then too.❤😊
You guys don’t realize how you help so many , by just coming in to our homes on these cold days and just talk. God will bless you in special ways. You are good people,and we love you , ❤
Kids are really amazing in their capacity to learn. They have no fear of messing up and they don’t care if it doesn’t look perfect.
This was so peaceful. Thank you ❤
Glad you enjoyed it! 😀
I hope in my next life I’m cozy around the stove wit y’all. Soooo excited to see two new lil faces in 2024 🙏♥️🐣🐣
Back when I was growing up in the late 1940s, 1950s, and early 1960s, Mother and Dad had a wood stove going in the early Spring, late Fall, and most of the Winter. They also had a propane range. Mother would put pots of beans or soup on the wood stove cooking or teakettles boiling away. Baking and other cooking was on the propane stove. This gave wonderful smells and saved money because what was cooked on the wood stove did not use propane. With 47 1/2 acres of woods there was always downed and dead trees that needed to be cleared away to keep the woods healthy. Therefore, a wood stove made good sense.
We used to cook soup beans on ours
Yep, soup beans and cornbread a couple days a week. 😊
It does me good to set in with y’all. Thank you much.
I chuckled at first at Matt's "how to cook popcorn" story, but then considered that kids nowadays would have no idea how to do it without the bags and such; so while it may have been "an embarrassment" back then I'm guessing it's rather an eye-opener today!
So great to hear Granny called for Turkey...sounds like she is doing pretty well and hasn't lost her appetite ❤
I love these videos when you just sit and tell your stories. Feels just like goin to visit an Aunty and Uncle.
My grandmother on my dad's side had a wood stove in the front yard that she cooked on in the summer so the house wouldn't heat up. She always had a big pot of green beans with red potatoes and/ or a big pot of corn on the cob. So good. She did her canning on that stove too. On my mom's side - all her stepmom ever cooked on was a wood stove. She made the best biscuits and gravy I ever have had anywhere was cooked by her on that stove. Precious memories...
When I was a child, my gram had a farm, I stayed with her often, for weeks at a time. My great uncle lived there in a little cabin and heated and cooked with a wood stove. A full size stove where you would lift the burners to add wood. I loved that cabin and ate many grilled cheese sandwiches and bowls of soup from that stove. Those were such good, happy years, those years on that farm. Chickens and every fruit tree we could grow, lots of corn and tomatoes and other vegetables... so good.
There's nothing like coffee or tea made on a woodstove. An egg sandwich sounds fantastic! Stay safe, gang!
I love egg sandwiches with mayo. I don’t need sausage, but most men want the meat included.
We always have a lot of fun shopping for our tree. Enjoyed the video ❤❤
One of the things I love about your channel is the natural cadence between you and Matt, including humor! I also appreciate the peaceful nature of Appalachian living you both are able to share with us. Tipper, what drew me to your channel initially was your story telling gift and your manner of speaking which is interesting and soothing. Feels like I'm listening to family. One example is when you give a recipe and don't just share ingredients but also the story of the woman who taught you.
My parents had a woodstove in their house in Taylorstown, VA. They mostly used it for heating the kitchen, not sure they ever cooked on it. The dogs used to love lying near that stove. Their Jack Russell Terrier would actually end up underneath the stove, which we wouldn't notice until she would come out a little later panting and wanting to cool off.
My momma cooked on a wood stove for 30 years, it was so hot in the summer. I was the lead child in gathering wood for it. My dad passed away and I had four siblings younger than myself so I dropped out of school and went to work in a textile mill and bought her an electric stove on the payment plan. We also moved to a better house with running water when before we drew it from a well with a bucket,rope and tickle.
Thank you for sharing about your life 😀
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I used to cook everything we ate during primitive camping. Everything and it tasted great too. Plus the evening dessert of s’mores or mountain pies. Ohhh I can smell it now. Good job Matt. Those stoves are wonderful and especially when the power goes out. Heat and cook. And throw your food out in a snow pile. Simple life kinda.
I have been away without internet on our Thanksgiving family trip-my husband and I, three of our children with their spouses, and ten of my grandchildren. It was a wonderful time! Now I am catching up on two weeks worth of your videos. I dearly enjoy your activities and family.
Thank you Patti!!
Love the talk today!
You mentioned a CZcams Channel where the couple are reinacators who cook over an open fire. Could it be Early American with Justine and Ron? If so, I really enjoy their videos. Justine cooks authentic historical recipes, and there is no talking, just cooking. It's relaxing and interesting to watch her cook using old methods.
😊 That's it
I always enjoy visiting with you when I can. Your family lifts my spirits. ❤
I'm so glad! Thank you 😊
That looked delicious! Love the idea of cooking on a wood burner. My husband and I camped every weekend when we were young and cooking over wood coals can be tricky. Anyway I loved listening to the conversation ❤
When my Grandmother upgraded to an electric stove, they kept the original wood stove and put it in the basement. It was a really nice one as I remember. The only thing she cooked on it once she moved it to the basement was chitterlings. When she was cooking those, I could smell them quite a ways from the house as I walked home from the bus stop.
Not a lot makes my mouth water, but that food cooked on the wood stove sure did. Everything tastes better cooked on a wood stove! Y’all can pray my husband lets me put ours up. It’s been in the box in the shed for 3 years now-I’m not giving up 😊 Y’all are blessed to be on the same page with gardening and way of life in general.
This was such a chill video. I think you all are so blessed. We’re older than you two but we want to have a place with a
I love the sound and feel of riding in a car on a gravel road. It reminds me of childhood.
It’s amazing to listen in to you two talking. It makes me feel like I’m down in the basement with y’all. We live much the same here on our farm, but have an empty nest which is full with a pack of dogs, cats, chickens, and the wild creatures of the surrounding Forrest. Here is a wild story a week ago near our farm, a 400 pound black bear was hit & killed! Reminded me of home in Greene County TN. Over the years I’ve lived in Middle TN, bear have been rare. However, the last decade we’ve found scat in our driveway & around when Walter is hunting. Middle TN folks are absolutely terrified & for me it’s just normal life with 🐻 around!
Blessings,
Allison 🧣🧦🧤🥶
This channel is a treasure! It harkens me back to a time when the entertainment unit was the front porch. Back when people had time for each other. Back when self reliance was normal and expected, not something unusual or something to be feared.
I was glad to see your video, today .The show where the couple cooks in 1823 style over the hearth is Early American and their 2nd channel about it is The Frontier Patriot. I love Ron and Justine! She does some seriously good cookimg. It is indeed an art form nowadays. I learn alot from your videos. Thank you for sharing.
Well I see that my response here is several days late but I just wanted the two of you to know what a wonderful day of rest yall enjoyed here . And when yall rest and relax I can watch and enjoy the same rest and peaceful reflection on the day too . Thank you for that . I laughed out loud when Matt found the cookie that Katy took a big bite out of and put it back in the bag . That was priceless . Blessings and prayers for Granny and the family .
Thank you! 😊
I love just watching you two talk about this or that; it is never dull. You're love for each other is so noticeable; and unfortunately, rare in today's society nowadays. And the story about Matt's father and what he said to his mother about hurrying up and dying, I thought was so cute. Yes, children say and do the funniest things sometimes.
I grew up in a home with a wood stove just like this that my dad built himself. I have so many memories of us cooking together on it with our family for fun.
Great memories!
You have a lot of blessings to be thankful for.
As I was watching you and Matt, I remembered the feeling I had when my late husband was living. The feeling of being together and eating a meal. Sharing things. Haven't felt that for at least 13 years. ❤
Bless you Lynn! Thank you for visiting with us 😀
My husband and I have been together for 37 years and I couldn't get him to make small take like you guys do.😂
Hobbies are work but yes, joyful work!
Enjoyed sittin around the wood stove with you both. Looked like a very tasty meal. No naps for me in the daytime lol
Thanks for sharing talks with us. 👍🏻🙏🏻😇❤️
Glad you enjoyed it 😁
My great uncle's house had 2 kitchens. One in the house for winter time. The other kichen for summer was across the breezeway that connected to the house. Kept the house from heating up.
My miema ( my moms mother ) .when they put a gas stove in the house she had the cook stove moved to her back porch .she still used when cooking big holiday dinners. She had a dutch oven big enough to put a 25 lb. Turkey in that she would cook on the floor furnace over night it made her house smell so good.
Matt really got my tummy rumbling with hunger pains, it looked so good, I’m gonna pause this to fry some cackle berries and sausage! Y’all are such a beautiful family!
Thank you 😊
Thomas, you must watch Cowboy Kent Rollins? Lol If not, You shore need to. He's a real Hoot! Cackleberries n Hen Fruit is what he calls eggs. My Daddy always did to. Lol.
@@karensweet6530 I too watch Kent, he’s a hoot!
This is probably my favorite video of you two. I felt like i was sitting right there, eating my fried egg sandwich too, just enjoying the warmth, the food and the company. Thank you 💞
So glad you enjoyed it 😀
Love the channel. Really enjoying learning lots of stuff from Tipper & Matt! God bless you both :)
Thanks for the chitchat Matt and Tipper!❤️🇨🇦🙏
My father loved to work. He was always finding new projects. Worked from sun up to after sun down.
Awe, that's so sweet of him to fix you a meal. Everything looks good! My husband since retired cooks alot and it's really good also. I really appreciate it when he does. Thanks for sharing your life with us. Love your family. God bless you all!
Matt’s comment “What’s going on in there?“😂. Good man!😊
This was a very nice visit! Love it when you talk of the older days of how people did things! 😊❤
I watch the Frontier Patriot and am amazed and have learned many things from them.
Hey Matt - you are so genuine and the popcorn story recipe was the best ever! What a great kid you were😊
Thanks for sharing that story and please share more.🎉
Growing up in the 80s my family spent many weeks every summer in my granny's small cottage. It did have electricity, but no running water, no freezer and no toilet indoors. Every morning granny lit the fire in the wood stove, because in Sweden it often gets chilly and rainy in the summer, and she always had a big pot with hot water on the stove. Outside there was a well with red iron tasting water and an outdoor toilet with lots of spiders in it. Every two weeks a man came with his truck to collect the poo bins from each family in the area, and my sister and I always thought he must have the worst job ever 😂 Good times 🏡
As always I love hearing your stories. Memories to hold on to. Being able to sit by and cook breakfast on the stove. God bless you both!
My grandparents cooked on the wood stove, especially in winter. Good times. Always had a pot of beans cooking.
I love the stories Matt tells.. It's so nice for him to cook for Tipper.. Love these two..God bless..🇺🇸🌹❤️
Good brunch, warm stove, and good stories from you both. Thanks for sharing with us.
Lol, yep the stool and minding / fixing breakfast pre-elementary school and beyond. Everyone pitched in and did what needed doing. But I also remember Marathon pancake breakfast with my cousins and us packing it away and my mother kept making pancakes until we couldn't eat another bite - but we were quiet for the next hour or so anyway 😂. Ah, the fifty's🙂
Always enjoy listening to you guys just relaxing and talking. My hubby can make coffee and that just about does it lol. Love seeing Matt cooking and you can tell he really enjoys cooking.Have a Blessed day.
I went to visit my ancestors graves and plantation in Plymouth mass near me. Those pilgrims ! What we take for granted 😂❤
Early American is the hearth cooking channel. I enjoy watching it too. Gran cooked soups, stews and oatmeal on the wood stove. Everything else was on her modern gas stove lol
You are bringing back fond memories. One of my favorite was my grandma and aunt making the best apple pies in a wood stove oven. I never did find out how many logs they used to keep the right temp for an hour to cook a pie!
Like a picnic!!! I didn't realize the stove had a cooking surface. Such neat gagets Matt has! Was wondering where the coffee grounds would go. It's like a french press
The crunch on the toast!!? White bread perfectly browned
I was really impressed with how well the cast iron pan was seasoned!!! The sausage didn't stick at all!!! I would have to put something soft on the floor for that nap
The comfort of the heat and the sounds of wood crackling, the smell of the wood
Pure Bliss!!!!
Your woodstove breakfast looked so wonderful! I agree, it would be such a learning curve to figure out how to cook completely on a woodstove when we are so used to electric or gas. Loved listening to you two reminisce with old stories and sharing your afternoon with us. 🙂
Love listening to you both talking about your life
I'm 64 , been around wooden cook stove all .y mi
🎉My life .I could teach you easy.
Love sausage and egg sandwiches!
We are friends with the Mennonite community near us ,they don’t have electricity and they cook on wood stove but in the summer they take their stove outside on a cement porch that has a roof ,much like a garage. They cook wonderful food as I have experience many times! I really enjoy having them as friends! We have learned much from each other!
We live in a total electric house and when my oldest was a baby we got an ice storm that knocked power out for over a week. We had to leave but vowed it would never happen again. Bought a wood burning stove and it has saved us a couple times.
Your videos are my favorite on CZcams. They make me happy 😊
Thank you!!
I got tired of leftovers so I made breakfast for supper eggs, corn beef hash, biscuits, and sausage gravy.
Hey Tipper &Matt, You two are just a joy to listen to and watch. Y’all have wonderful marriage. Thanks so much for sharing! You make my day so much better! ❤️& Prayers
Thanks guys
I love you guys. You’re all such a great family to watch. I love hearing the stories you tell, and all the families goin’s on. It almost feels like I’m part of the family, watching updates on what’s happening. 😊
I love that Katie Presley took a bite out of a cookie, and her Dad said he thought she was out of that stage by now!😂
😊
I like to stay busy, too. I work as a project manager from home during the week. That is a sit down job, so on my lunch breaks I do my house cleaning. I’m able to free up my weekend time by doing that. My rest time is when I can sew. I like to do cross stitch, embroidery, general sewing and I am teaching myself to quilt. I can watch movies, CZcams or listen to audiobooks books while I sew. I am not interested in just sitting and watching TV. I just didn’t grow up like that.
It's so comforting to watch your videos and to get to hang with you for a while and reconnect to the important things in life. This world is getting more and more crazy, but you help us stay grounded ❤
The youtube channel I think you were talking about is named "Early American". I enjoy watching them as well. We also have dutch ovens and cook over an open fire outside. Dutch ovens are so universal. You could cook a three-course meal and dessert. Losing power in the summer or winter you can always depend on a dutch oven.
Thanks for sharing your Sunday night video!
I believe you're right...really interesting channel.
Looks delicious! Must have smelled amazing! Thanks for bringing us to your basement kitchen! Are you uns gonna start catering now? 😊
Enjoy your rest day. Getting a little bit frosty and cold here in southern Oregon . Keep up the good work you two. We appreciate you!
MATT is sure nurturing!! lucky you Tipper! enjoy your day and rest! God bless both of you!! sausage and egg, sounds yummy and hot chocolate..double yummy!
I don't have a wood cook stove, but I have a fireplace in the house I fixed up. I may try it this winter!
Absolutely love this video…watched it multiple times.😊
I love sitting around listening to you two. Just home folks!
Wonderful, up building and practical thoughts and advise.
Greetings from North Texas! We so appreciate your posts! Happy Holidays!
So glad you enjoy them 😀
Looks so cozy, you two are so sweet. I mailed you little "sweater mug" covers. Hope you received them.
Thank you 🙏
