    Kendrick has stolen my heart. My grandson is 34 and reminds me of him exactly as I’ve watched him grow up. This has been a real treat for me, since he is my only grandson. I now have 2 great grandson but neither one is this much like him. Kendrick warms my heart.

    I'm so glad I found your channel. Your videos remind me so much of my childhood. I hated every minute of gardening/farm life. Now as an adult and grandmother, those were my best memories and I wish I could now give that to my grandchildren. FYI, my grandmother made whoopie pies all the time and she would change the flavor.

    Your lifestyle reminds me of the way we were raised. We milked 52 Holstein cows. We started milking at 4:30 every morning and 5 in the evening. My mom made everything from scratch. I cherished all the skills she taught me. I have taught my childern the skills I learned.

    I love how you use everything, no waste….like letting the boys clean the bowls and beaters (no waste there by the way they clean it up BEFORE they wash them) and also how the boys help do their part in speeding up the wrapping, by eating as many as they can before they are wrapped, that way less to wrap!

    Thank you so much for the recipes! My mother made these when I was a little girl and I loved them! Actually, I began to bake when I was about 9 and this recipe was the first thing that I made! Instead of tablespoons of cocoa, I used teaspoons! As you can imagine, they were very light in color, but other than that, they came out pretty good! We had the no powdered sugar frosting for them. I’m so happy to have this recipe! Brings back sweet memories!! Hubs is a truck driver and these would be perfect for him as he’s driving down the road!❤️❤️❤️

    What a beautiful family vlog done by the family on Good Friday making whoopi pies, they looked delicious & I have never ever tried a whoopi pie because I’m in Scotland and we don’t have them here. I’m beginning to think that this granny could be making a “single” batch of them one day. I love the relationship between Harrison & Kendrick true brothers at heart, the joy of Harrison seeing the waffle whoopi pies and immediately shouting on Kendrick to come because he would be so happy to see what was there. I love Harrison’s gentle loving tough to his mama but also to his big sister Stacie arms open wide for a giant hug and the love is given back in spades. It is a joy to watch your beautiful family , thank you for opening your door to us 🩷🌸

      What a great loss! May God continue to comfort you along with those in your life. Life sure is a mystery. My father used to say, live for God, die for God. His death was untimely abd resulted in my not having anything to do with siblings or my mother. The last thing she said to.my father, married 50 years, was "I'm lioking for a boyfriend" and my father sobbed. I hung the phone up on her. People need to be resustant to social engineering and it starts with upbringing. Nevertheless, the element of choice is still there and I consider my relatives accountable. The untimely death of my father will alwsys leave a scar. Now this nice lady's loss is unspeakable! And I hope she has comfort that passes understanding.

    My grandmother grandpop was a poor share cropper at the end of the harvest the owner them a big ham and a case of Orange crush soda. Once a year . My stepdad hitchhiked from North Carolina to Baltimore MD the big miserable city met my mom and worked a hot factory spray painting n got lung disease. Anyway we all need to appreciate what we have. And when I see RUTHANN working I know it's hard but she's a good wife n momma and that is priceless. Women work a job and pay a sitter what do they have left. Work at home moms that's the best you could ever give them

If you cream butter & sugar forever like I do and then use King Arthur flour the batter is stiffer, but still baked up great! Thank God.

    Thank you so much for the historical background on the Whoopie pie, I absolutely enjoy abd love every bit of your childhood memories you allow us to know and it is the same for all the stories that have come down generation to generation. I have learned so much from your channel because if yout feed to your family I know that yout are giving your best recipe's and suggestions on ingredients and all the great tips and tricks. The fact that you do not try and hide anything from accidentally making gardening mistakes, farming animals mistakes, what happened when gates are left open and how tirelessly you work at providing aid, ALL while educating the children of how mistakes happen the consequences and the hard work in trying to rectify the situation. You have the patients of a saint when the kids are helping in the kitchen and I always laugh when the kids think they are getting away with something when you are not looking because I know you will see it when editing your videos, it is hilarious and i would love to be a fly on the wall when you see those on your edits. Thak you for being you, being strong , consistent in your beliefs and the confidence toy have when discussing what negative comments that may have been left, you do it with such grace. I pray Bosch sends you a dehydrator because if anyone deserves one, you absolutely do. Bless you and your family, enjoy the grandson time, they grow up so fast and of course I cannot leave out the furbabies, dogs and cats and of course your farm animals. Unfortunately although I think I have a instragram acct? I do not know how to use it, but I will have my daughter try and help me just to try and see if I win something I have been drooling over for awhile.

    Before my children grew up I would also wrap Whoopie pies individually and freeze them. We also loved them frozen. I’ll have to make some for a family gathering.
    My favorite filling was made by cooking a paste of milk and flour then whipping in granulated sugar, shortening (or butter), and vanilla. Now that I’m further into this video I see that the frosting in your waffle pies is almost exactly my favorite.

    I just made these. Oh my goodness! They are SO delicious. Also the recipe proportions were right on the money. There was an exact amount of filling for the cakes made. The only thing I wished was that you had said about how long to cook the cakes. I wasn’t sure if it was 5 minutes, 10 minutes or some other time. For my oven it was right around 10 minutes. Thank you! What a fun recipe and I can easily understand why you have “do not double!” on your card. At some points there’s a lot going on and with little ones under foot it could get hairy

    I had the oatmeal whoopie pies in Durango Mexico from the Mennonite community. I still cherish that memory and crave that treat! This was over 20 years ago!

    I love Whoopie Pies so much. This is the first Saturday of the month, so I will be going to our Mennonite store close to us because it is Donut Day! (first Saturday of the month) I also always pick up a Whoopie Pie, so it is double treats. Thanks so much for the video showing the whole process making it possible for me to make my own. Loved watching the kids snatch up the tasty treats, and they were so helpful! Have a great week!

    Eastern PA here: we can buy chocolate with white filling, chocolate with peanut butter filling, and red velvet cake with cream cheese filling. The ones we can buy are always very dry. These look great!

    I love watching your CZcams channel. Love your recipes, lifestyle and your beautiful family. I’ve always loved to bake cook and can. I only found CZcams a couple years ago when my husband passed away from cancer and I was looking for a more reasonable cable network and found the Roku channel and CZcams. It has been a Godsend. Thank you for your wonderful videos ❤

    Oh my gosh! I LOVE whoopie pies! My young Mennonite friend is the best whoopie pie maker where I live and has at least six different varieties she’s made. My favorites are chocolate (of course), shoo fly pie, and lemon blueberry. I’m also excited to enter your giveaway! My mom has a Bosch mixer and I’ve always wanted one! They are the best!

    I have tried them, but yet to make them… I will tho! I grew up with gardening, canning, my grandmother made butter in a crank church. My husband grew up with it too, and helped his grandmother as well. My mom learned from her momma and I learned from mine. My husband learned from his family. I am going back to my roots. We live close to a bake shop that is by a young lady who is a Mennonite. She sells the Whoopie Pies there. They are delicious.

    Thank you from my husband,lol, one of his favorite treats! Since moving south, we miss the Amish at our local farmers market. Now I can make these for him, and hear him say, “Whoopie!”. Also, I have never made frosting with flour, I am very curious, and I can’t wait to try making it!❤️
