Beautifying My Home and Baking an UPSIDE DOWN Dinner! 

If only the world had more Kevins. These wonderful videos are like an island of calm, gentle salve to my soul.

Kevin, do you know there are actually days when I need to: clean the kitchen, the bathroom, the bedroom, the living room, the dining room, the patio, the front patio, etc. etc., where I say to myself: "Well, Kevin would tackle this project calmly, thoughtfully and thoroughly, as though it was the most important task in the world." Thank you for that viewpoint! Thank you for validating domestic tasks as though they are the most important tasks in the world. Because, actually, when done mindfully - they are! Indeed! Blessings!

I have just found you ! What a wonderful content you have. Such a peaceful retreat for this weary friend. Thank you. Joy

A day without Kevin is a day without sunshine!

I know tree needles and evergreen debri are messy, but I just can't bring myself to purchase a plastic, fake tree. I love the smell and look of real trees and decor. I especially appreciate the idea to use spring flowering bulbs to transition through the rest of winter. Thanks!!

This episode was just magical! The comforting meal, the bulbs going into the window, the deChristmas, and wonderful pets. I truly enjoyed every moment! Thank you!

Kevin I have found a coffee filter also works great. Lay it flat over the drain whole and place dirt over it.

ДЯКУЄМО ЗА КРАСУ. ❤❤❤🎉

One of my most peaceful moments - watching your new videos! Thanks Kevin, beautiful as always!

Perhaps if the doll angel hears a bell, she will get wings. Happy New Year to you, Mr. Fox and all your family!

Happy New Year to you and yours. One of the best channels on RU-vid.

Hope you, Mr. Fox and your furry friends had a wonderful holiday season. Happy New Year!

Just, love, love, love this channel! Goldie doing yoga on the chaise was just adorable!

Happy new year! I made some of your previously shared easy recipes for drink canapés for our New Years dinner. Success! Very much looking forward to what magic you will bring us all in 2024. Best wishes from Sweden

You are such an amazing person! Your voice and details just everything about you just reveals what a smart kind man you are!!! ❤❤❤

Happy New Year Kevin from York, England. Looking forward to seeing all your adventures in 2024 x

Oh, Kevin. I am going to the kitchen right now to make that cornbread dinner! But I am low on veggies right now so cabbage, onions and corn will be in mine. The fur babies look so contented, as I would be if I lived there! Happy New to you and Mr Silver Fox, and your choreographer Lizet. We all appreciate the high quality production values.

Kevin, your videos are so much fun to watch. They are so enjoyable and I learn about gardening, a subject I did not know I liked until I started watching your channel! Your fur babies look so happy and I love that you include them. Thanks as always!!

Happy New Year, an afternoon tea with Kevin - wonderful 🇬🇧

New tradition for you..leave your decorations up until the 12 days of Christmas are over..12th night aka Epiphany...frasier firs hold needles very well .

This reminds me of something Phyllis Stokes would prepare. In fact, Kevin's attitude towards life reminds me of Phyllis too.

What a kind, gentle soul I think you are just what the world needs now!

What a lovely way to spend a cold, Winter day!

Kevin I love how you balance down-to-earth-ness with high class elegance and grace

11:40 -- I've allowed scilla to spread through my lawn. In the spring, the flowers provide forage for bees.

Aw, Avery is a good helper. :) It's fun to watch the progression of your forced bulbs. I can't wait to see them in their full glory. Also really looking forward to trying the veggie/cornbread pie. Easy dinners are all I feel like I can manage after the holidays. Happy new year Kevin and family and to everyone here in the KLJ community. 💞

Happy New Year from the UK, here and really enjoy watching your show. Also made your vegetable flan recently. So delicious!

you have a beautiful home. lovely ambience, and of course the dog 🐾🌹

Happy New Year, Kevin! Thank you for preparing us to anticipate a promise of Spring through your beautiful bulb plantings!

Happy 2024 "KEVIN" May this year bring all of your heartfelt desires to fruition! Love, Tiffany

Happy New Year, Kevin! I've been watching your channel since you had less than 8,000 subscribers. Wow, I love how much it has grown and so well deserved! Your upside down dinner looks delicious. Thank you, for making this world a calmer, more beautiful place!

Thank you, Kevin, for sharing your busy day and the delicious dinner. I love that everything you do is based on quality, not quantity, and that you take such pride in how your home looks. It's very inspiring. Wishing you and all your loved ones a very happy 2024! I look forward to watching what you come up with this year. Thank you!!!

Thank you Kevin for another wonderful wonderful comforting video I love seeing the animals they're so casual and enjoying their life and your beautiful home thank you for all the wonderful videos that you give us to enjoy

There you are! I was missing you. Happy you are back and with a wonderful recipe ! Bonne et Heureuse Année à toi et Monsieur Fox !

My dad was a gentleman like you, he wore a jacket to dinner. Such good memories for me. That dinner looked perfect and a good way to use up all the veggie bits in the fridge, I can't wait to make it. I love my fireplace too and have a fire whenever its cold enough ~almost as often as you ☺ Thanks for the lovely video, hugs from nana in PA

Hi Kevin. I dont know if you do this already, but every time i have some form of scraps, I put it my freezer. Even onion peels, bits and pieces. It is so wonderful when you are making a soup or some sort of stock. Happy new year to you 😊

Hi Kevin, Thank you for your beautiful and calming videos. I'm just getting over the flu, so today's video is exactly what I needed. Happy New Year!

I love how you embrace homemaking, it is becoming a lost art and is much undervalued in this society. I love to decorate for the seasons and I was mocked for it by one of my 'friends'. Also, your recipes are so classic and lovely, I can't wait to try them! I always have random veges and cornbread around and that recipe looks like a go to week night winner.

И кулинар,и любитель прекрасного и просто хороший человек. Приветствую из Сибири,Красноярский край. Приезжайте в гости.

Kevin, I enjoyed the video and learned about forcing bulbs - thanks for sharing your knowledge

Your dinner plates and matching napkins are beautiful.

Thanks for another great recipe. I’ll try it today for our lunch. 😊 The bulbs made me frustrated with myself as I bought several last fall and have yet to plant them. Our Iceland trip really threw me off. 😢

A joyous new year to you and your family. My home is winter now as well

Happy New Year to you Kevin and Mr. Fox. Thank you for providing a peaceful respite from the insanity swirling around us.

Happy New Year Kevin and family!

You will be getting a lot of snow this weekend. Stay safe .

It’s always bittersweet taking down the decorations that were lovingly made….but at some point they become a fire hazard and must go!

Bonjour Kevin. I believe there is something comforting in the rituals we go through with every season. Put up the decor, celebrate, bring it down, and look forward to the next, with good cleaning in between, thus, enjoying our homes. And, thanks for the lovely recipe. Best Wishes for a great 2024!

Happy New Year, Kevin! As usual, everything looks terrific.

Thank you, Kevin, for another great video. Your upside down cornbread-veggie dish looks delicious. It's fun to see your cats and Avery. I will check out the links you've provided. 💗

Happy New Year Kevin, to you and your wonderful family 🎉🎉🎉

Sure has been a while since we've had Brandenburg 4 as backing music in a video! Happy New Year to the entire team! Just wondering, we had sent a Christmas card along to the PO Box, do hope you got it?

Always makes me sad to see Christmas decorations in the tree taken down. I see you had a good supervision with your pets.❤ Have a wonderful new year.

Happy New Year to you and Mr Fox!! 🎉❤

After watching your video about chilling bulbs last fall - I bought 5 or 6 different bags of spring bulbs and popped them in my crisper drawer in the refrigerator. Mine should be ready to bring out of the cold next week. I have pots and forcing vases all ready to go for them. The corn bread vegetable bake looks soooo yummy ! Love it when you show your fur babies - they make me smile . 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗

Someday I hope to retire to a quiet old home like yours.

Hi Kevin, I'm a recent subscriber and I absolutely love your videos! They are so professionally done and have a good variety of content. I've been binge-watching your previous videos and was so happy to see that you posted a new one! Your personality and character are A++ and you are such a joy to watch. Also, you have a very beautiful home. Happy New Year to you, Mr. Fox, and the furry members of the family!

A peaceful way for me to end the day. Tea, beautiful home and recipes. Not countinfg the music. Thank you.♥️🫖☕️🩷

New subscriber 4 months. Great fast meal recipe! Love your videos with variety. Thanks

Happy New Year, Kevin! Thank you for all that you do for your viewers. I am moving in a month to a place that has a more workable kitchen, so my goal is to try some of you easy recipes, like this upside down skillet dinner. I love your furry kids, mine is asleep next to me. That shot of Binky looking down through the banister is priceless 😼.

I always have Jiffy cornbread mix in pantry. I'll have to try this recipe. Happy 2024 from Oregon.

I only discovered you last month and I already love your videos, they give me peace of mind, calm, you do me a lot of good. Thank you 🙏🏻

Вы похожи на писателя, рассказывающего в своих произведениях рождественские истории в канун Рождества. Эти истории, как правило, бывают очень интересными.

As much as I enjoy the Christmas decorations, it always feels good to dismantle and tidy up for the new year. Your supper menu was perfect for a busy day and light after our holiday indulgences. Thank you Kevin and Happy New Year.🥳🙏❤️

You look wonderful wearing colour.. this particular blue is gorgeous on you and you really stand out against the light kitchen background especially. Wearing colour helps draw my eye to each task you undertake. Thank you Kevin.

How, or what decisions have you made in life to become a person who loves beauty and shares beauty with others? I like you very much. You seem personable and happy.

This is the Very Best of RU-vid! So calming after a hard day in the office.. Ever felt stress just drain away? These videos of Kevin really make Life enjoyable. Thank you so much Kevin for all of your attention to details.. Hope your year gets off to a great new start ! ♥

I love your videos! Not only are they informative, I love listening to you speak. Your voice and demeanor are very calming. Your pets are so sweet too!

Thank you Kevin for another lovely video. It’s like visiting a friend for a catch up. Happy New Year to you.

Hola, veo a Kevin hace poco tiempo y ya me encanta, felicitaciones y gracias por su entrega en cada video. Feliz año a todos.

Hi Mr Kevin thank you for the delicious dinner ❤❤ I hope you had a wonderful holiday and happy new year for you and the family .🎉❤🎉

as always, a great video from Kevin !!! Happy New Year Kevin and family

Hi Kevin. Your "capable" helpers are adorable. Love from a fellow feline fan.

I had a not so great day. But now I'm watching lovely calming Kevin. The Bob Ross of living well videos, and its better than (and less expensive) than therapy. Thank you Kevin! ❤

Happy New Year Kevin. So great to have you back posting again! 💕

Just adore spending time with you, Kevin! Best wishes throughout the new year for you and all those whom you love!❤

I've seen feather wings of varied sizes at Hobby Lobby if you wanted to refurbish your angel doll. Go for a cream color instead of white but I'm sure you already know that.

I missed you soooooooo much! New years Hugs to the whole Fam Damily! Those Avery smooches are just adorbs! My 10ft tree stays up with 1000 rice lights until the end of March. Such a huge nite light!

I can’t wait to see your indoor flowers. Your videos are so relaxing.

Дивлюсь ваші чудові відео в Україні і на ці тридцять хвилин переношусь в інший вимір, де панує краса, любов і мир. За що Вам щиро дякую ❤

How has the Algorithm not found you for me till now ❤

I like how you include your furry friends in the videos. No home is complete without pets 😇💕

Happy New Year, Kevin, Mr Fox and Lizeth! It's always a little sad when the tree has to come down but as you showed, very therapeutic once the cleaning up is finished! Great snippets of all your furry lodgers this time! Your various bulbs are looking amazing. What an excellent tip to add near-boiling water to compost in order to rehydrate it. That's a new one on me and yes, I've suffered the problem of beading droplets on top when using cold water. I too was planting up a load of Dutch bulbs for a neighbour yesterday. I was presented with the job on 20th December so none of them had been cold stored. I've a feeling they may come up blind. Not the case for you though. Your upstairs bathroom window is going to look amazing in a few short weeks. All that work and a delicious but simple dinner with wine. Really great visit, as always. Thank you so very much. All Love and Huge Hugzz, Steve xx

Happy New Year Kevin! Will make this dinner this weekend and report back!

Just love being here❤❤❤What a beautiful person, delicious food, out of this world house, lovely cats and the dog!!!! God bless you ❤❤❤

Happy new year Kevin. I love that your pets look so happy in your home. Enjoy your dinner and cozy fire!

Thinking ahead, this would make an excellent take along for a holiday potluck. Have this tucked away for future reference. Thank you and Happy New Year!

When you said the small floret reminded you of a tree, that reminded me of my granddaugher, when she was a toddler, would call them trees.😊

Oh Happy Day! A beautiful post from you. ♥️ what a nice surprise in this cold day. I lit a fire in my fireplace and made my tea, You my dear, are a gift I give myself. ✨🕊🥂 I love upside down cakes. Most folks make pineapple, I have also made plum, raspberry, and peach! Lol! Have a lovely day, and sending blessings for you and Mr. Fox and fur babies!🙏🕊🙋‍♀️🫠🥰

Thank you Kevin for another relaxing afternoon. I will be making the veggie skillet dish this weekend. Happy New Year to you and Mr. Fox.

Happy New Year! I hope you, Mr. Fox, and the furry ones all had a wonderful holiday season! This meal looks delicious...unfortunately, my husband doesn't eat veggies, except spinach, peas, and onions! He would love everything else in it, though. It was fun to see Avery helping you, Binky spying, and Goldie sunbathing!

hey Kevin. what a great recipe, upside-down dinner and a great way to use up things hanging around. I got a new puppy, am still recovering from 2 nights of no sleep and this dinner sounds great to me and easy. I have lots of leftovers. I did get my decorations down and put away yesterday. Doesn't it feel good to have the house normal again? I have several arrangements that I'm keeping and the forced bulbs I did with you are opening now, a little ahead of yours. My paper whites smell amazing. What I use in a pot hole is a coffee filters. Happy New Year, great to see another Kevin's video to watch this cold January morning in EA. WA. state. Hope you enjoyed the honey tea sticks.

Happy New Year, Kevin. So good to see you. Mr. Fox is a very lucky man!!!!!

Thank you for yet another enjoyable video of fine living through industriousness, creativity and the pursuit of beauty.

Happy New Year! 🎉 The dish looks delicious! Also enjoy the furry cameos (and appropriate "spy" music) 😅 🎶

Hello Kevin, I’m watching Your lovely videos in Finland and I totally agree with the other comments here; it is a balm to one’s soul to meet You here. Thank You!

Always love your videos 😊 they are so very comforting and relaxing! Happy New Year ❤

Thank you Kevin, for yet another calming, relaxing and interesting video! Sharing with you, as I live in Sweden, that over here we celebrate Christmas until January 13th. This is the day when Christmas is all over and we "dechristmas" our homes. Today, January 6th, we celebrate the Feast of Epiphany, the holy Three Kings Day. A very Happy New Year to you! 😊

HAPPY NEW YEAR KEVIN...LOOKING FORWARD TO A GREAT YEAR WITH YOU....

I love your dog……great video…..as always😎
