Helen, so sweet to be in your kitchen with you. Now I have a new way to cook spaghetti. This is such a treat to hear your story about your childhood. I think you should tell your childhood stories, memories, and let us share your growing up years. We all have our memories of what life was back when. I never thought that we did without as we too has squirrel, fish, venison, birds, wild pig, rabbit, and yes - "frog legs ". I thought everyone ate like we did. Mama worked outside the home and us 3 girls had our chores. You see, mama made all our clothes, had 1 pair of shoes, 1 for summer and 1 for winter. I could go on and on. So you see, your story meant a lot to me. Please please tell us more stories. I would love it if you would make a video every now and then on just your life growing up at home and about the happy times you had visiting relatives. I know there were hard times too, share if you want. Country living wasn't easy like living in town. We love you Helen,. From a 75 year ole Texas country friend
Hello Shirley in Texas, My name is Shirley also, I’ll be 75 in June. We old timers know how to live off the land, I know how to skin rabbits and squirrel 🐿 and other animals. I don’t have to do it now but if I had to, could do it again , well not completely out of it, my son raises hog and I help with them but the fresh sausage sure is good and I know how it’s made. We were poor in material things but rich in love. We do have something in common, loving Miss Helen

We love you so much! You ROCK!! You are an absolute angel being our friend in these very critical times. You are so full of love and honesty. Your family is amazing and so wonderful as well. I remember those days you are speaking of since my mom was born in ‘31, so I knew her dad ( my Pappy). Those were such wonderful days. My Grammy was already gone but her and my Pappy were both very God revering people. God has truly blessed you and your family. My mom had the neighbor boy shoot her some squirrels. When he delivered them she thanked him and paid him but then cried and cried and couldn’t eat them. I was there when it happened, I was a small child. Please keep sharing your recipes, I LOVE them! I love angel hair tool! My favorite!!! I love your kitchen. “Helen’s Kitchen” is open! Surely your doing something right since you stay so strong and fit. Don’t sweat the small stuff, we are blessed with what you give us even when their is a video malfunction. HUGS!!!!

Miss HELEN i got married at 15 years old and when I went out to dinner with my husband at the time he was my boyfriend but any how we went out and he asked what kind of steak would you like? I said what kind? What do you mean? I thought there was just steak steak in my family was just that steak I didn't know there was different cuts of steaks and when we ever did get steaks in my family's lil ranch we were blessed!!!! We ate a lot of chicken, eggs and biscuit and beans and taters hahaha and blessed to have that then my boyfriend asked would you like mushrooms 🍄 with your steak I said what the heck are those😳🤔😁 he was shocked that I didn't know what mushrooms were and that the first time I ever had mushrooms 😂
Miss Helen oh how I wish I could join you for supper! You are just precious. Your spaghetti looks so good and thank you for thanking Jesus for the food. Everything about you says you love Jesus! Lillian from CA.

My father-in-law taught me how to make meatballs, and my husband is so thankful he did. I, too, prefer angel hair pasta. Thanks for bringing me continuous smiles. Stay warm. Prayers said for you to feel better.

Dear sweet Helen...how we LOVE your stories of times gone by. Just like my Momma used to talk about living in the woods of Alabama. Poppa plowed the field with oxen, kerosene lamps, wood stoves, Grandma made everyone's clothes...all that. People helped people. Anyway...we also loved watching you cook that delicious spaghetti for us ! GOT to have garlic bread with it !! 😁 Helen, we just love you SO SO MUCH.You always teach us so much. Now, you have inspired the entire family to have their channel !! You ARE the Queen of RU-vid and the Queen of our hearts 💟😍 LOVE YOU !! Cher and Dave, New Mexico 🌈
My Sweet Golden Girl, please don't apologize for you videos because short or long food or no food your subscribers love you. I can feel your needing a bit of a rest so do so and recuperate so you can get your energy back. Take some time to do that and we will be here when you return. I know I'm a new subscriber but I think from reading your comments you are very much loved by so many people. Your spaghetti looks so good I make it a lot and your love of the Angel hair pasta, well that's because Golden Girls are Angels Helen. I'm going to try the pizza as well. Take care my friend and thanks for the video upload. God Bless.🙏
I Helen I love your little story down memory lane. And I remember my grandmother telling me similar stories as I was growing up. She would talk about how her mother made her dresses out of tator sacks. She grew up in long creek South Carolina. But the nearest town for them was Toccoa Georgia. She would tell me that all the men would get together and ride to town to buy groceries in their mule and buggy. She said it would take them a couple of days to go get groceries and get back home. They raised hogs for the meat that they eat. Then my family raised hogs for many years until my dad passed away. We raised hogs and chickens for many, many years.. Your spaghetti looks delicious. I bet you are a good cook. I can only imagine how delicious your cooking is. Yummy! God bless you and your family in every way Ms. Helen
Awe you’re such a great cook too! That spaghetti sauce looks fantastic!! I’ll definitely have to try this! I always make my own but it’s a long process! Thank you for sharing! I’m looking forward to the bird video! Feel better Ms Helen! You’re in my prayers! 🥰🙏🏼
You're like me, Miss Helen....I only cook small amounts of food at a time because I get tired of leftovers after eating it a time or two. I enjoyed your video when you and Stephen and Danny (I think was his name) cleared the path in your woods. You stay safe, and thank you for all your videos you share with us.
Miss Helen, you are my sunshine!…. Thank you for your kindness.You warm my heart ♥️ Hope you feel better very soon.❤️🩹 Seeing you take out the lettuce reminded me of my mom.. she always wrapped it in paper towel and a bag or whatever container of your choice. It lasts and stays fresh a long time. A little trick i wanted to share with you Miss Helen. 🤗
Ms. Helen, Sounds like you might have the winter Blues 😰 I know how much you Love the warm weather. I Love the history on your discovery of Spaghetti 🍝 and I Love your version of making it. 😋 YUMMY 😋 Feel better soon, Spring is almost here 💐 🌹 🌸 If you don't feel better soon, (Doctor visit) as much as you don't like going. 👩🍳 Many Blessings and Love to you ❤
Helen good morning to the most loved lady . It's 5 o'clock in the morning and I'm having coffee now. I never ate spaghetti in my life when I was growing up either. I really relate to your early years. I'm making meatloaf today. Ok, I'm watching.
Hello Helen! I know you are going to make me hungry ! 🤤😋 It looks delicious! And some salad left for a sandwich! Garlic bread is one of my favourites mmm mm! Thank you very much. God Bless.x ☺️💐🇬🇧
That looks delicious 😋 I am going to make me some for lunch!! I think we all have issues during the winter from a lack of sunshine. You can take some Vitamin D3 and it will help tremendously. Taking this has really helped me get my energy back and just feeling better in general. Praying that you will feel better soon! Spring and your birthday is right around the corner. Love you 🥰
Hi Helen it's lunchtime here in Dublin Ireland but I certainly know what we'll be having for dinner....yummy! Thank you for your story as well, the whole video was brilliant as always!!!! ♥️♥️😘😘😘🇮🇪 love your channel Therese ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Our belly's are full and the dishes are done. Coach Collins in a happy man. He Loves your spaghetti and so did I. It was quick and easy and we have enough left for tomorrow. I laughed when he called from the store asking what angel hair is. Too funny. Thanks for the share. Love, Barn from Frederick, Ok.
You have the most kindest Grandson, Steven. What a Blessing. He is so kind to do things he does for you. Your Cooking Video looked delicious. Favorite Videos is your Cooking Videos & your Prayers. Blessings Always. 🙏
MzHelen please don't fret, I'm so thankful you're kind enough to bring us with you in your home & spend the time it takes to video and present videos on RU-vid - what an achievement!

You are a true blessing worldwide - to the WWW! Keep em coming at your pace - I watch each & every one & share!
Your food looks so good and makes me hungry and I will cook me some! Thanks for your video and hope you will be feeling better. I'm so ready for spring and warm weather. Love and hugs from Arkansas!!!
Hey Miss Helen. I never had spaghetti when I was growing up either. I guess after I got married, I discovered it and love it. You are such a dear lady .I love your videos and Steven’s. He is a fine, young man. How loving and kind he is.
Oh, Helen, my ♥️ just filled up and spilled over as you prayed. I was prayin' with you and I couldn't stop the tears! God bless you, my lovely Sister. 🙏🏼 I can't wait to hear what you think about the surprise you have coming from a certain teacher we know!🥰

I've rode with you down some rough , bumpy & muddy roads and thought we were gonna get stuck at times ! I've made cement creations by learning that i can do whatever i want to do if i just try to ! Sea glass creations , painting dried up old flowers & making them beautiful again ! So , a huge thank you Helen ! And to steven now too ! He's doing great just like his GRANDMA HELEN ! GOD BLESS .
Thank you Helen !...I was eating my dinner..beef stew..while I watched you making your spaghetti dinner... Please take care and thanks for telling us about your early life...💚🙏💚...🌿🌿🌿
Hello, MS. Helen ❣️It was so good to spend this time with you today. I’ve been seeing you on your Grandson’s channel. I know you are so proud of him and I know he appreciates how blessed he is to have you, his Grandmother, in his life. I enjoyed your cooking video and even though I had just eaten, watching you cooking such good looking dishes, makes me hungry, lol. Thank you for sharing sweet Spiritual messages to us…your prayers always touch me and your joy and words lift my spirits. 😘 I love you. God bless you🙏🏼
Your such a sweetheart Ms. Helen. BEAUTIFUL VIDEO. My daddy was born in 1933 and they could not afford to buy shoes. And they all turned out to be just fine people. You learn to appreciate things when you don't have much, but the love of nine children has always been thick as blood.
Ms. Helen that spaghetti looks delicious! That’s my kind meal! Fast and easy. The best part is enjoying it with you. Thank you so much for sharing it with us. God bless you❤️🙏 oh and yes my kitty will enjoy watching the birdies 😘🐾🥰
God bless you dear Mrs. Helen, I love Spaghetti with mushrooms too! I hope & pray you get rest & renewed strength. I also love watching birds, I moved my feeder near my window so I can see them without them flying off.
Hey folks remember to let the adds play for at least 30 seconds so Helen gets credit for them ... I let them run 30 seconds or a bit more the click the learn more button to open site and then close it to ensure she is credited for that ad... just say'in it takes less than a minute. then I continue watch'in... shared the love folks...God Bless
Thank your for sharing your recipe, Helen! You are so sweet, I love watching you no matter what you are doing. I love your talks that you have with us! My mother used to make spaghetti very much like you do, but she would also add carrots and green pepper. Blessings to you!

Take care of yourself honey. Make videos when you feel like it sweetie, we will be here waiting. Love you! From the mountains in Virginia. 🙏❤🥰
Would like to add to my previous comment that you do a terrific job on video Helen. I am a 72 year old lady and am amazed how you are really up on the new technology. Bless you.
Helen, I don’t care what you do or don’t do, you are just a treat to to spend time with. Enjoy your stories especially about your childhood. And your cooking and, and, and! Just enjoy you! You are a sweetheart with a huge heart and a huge heart for God! Oh, did I mention just how creative and talented you are??? 😁. 🥰 Love you!
You make it alot like me! I use angel hair too, so yummy. And pizza sauce, along with any other pizza type toppings i have in the house & cheese, & then bake it in the oven topped with more cheese. Pepperoni is so yummy in it. We call it 'pizzagetti". Love you Helen stay safe & warm & healthy, God bless❤
That spaghetti looks good. I saw the kind of mushrooms you put in it and am going to see if I can find those to put in mine. Take a day for yourself and relax sit and watch your birds out the window.
Your food looks good I enjoy watching you. When im down and out i have to live with my boss and im her caregive her mind bad she don't no her on home at this point and every ten minutes thinks she lives some were she dont live and im away from my family it gets hard so you help me a lot when i get down and out thank you Helen.
Hi there Helen you did a great job putting together a nice simple meal. My husband and I are the same ages as you and our appetites are small too. Just can't put a lot of food in us. This nice dinner would be very pleasing to sit down to. The only thing I would skip would be the mushrooms, don't care for those. Will have to make my garlic toast the same way as you did, rather than paying for it in the boxes sold in the stores. More reasonable for the pockets. God Bless you Helen I give you a lot of credit being so independent at 83.
Ms. Helen, take a good rest. We all need to do that. We'll all feel better once spring gets here. Nothing like being outside in the sunshine. Love and prayers to you sweet lady!
Gidday.. I loved watching you in the kitchen making your spaghetti bog. I was interested in how you peeled your tomato for your salad..I'm going to try that. Looked delicious and I'll be thinking of you here in Australia next time I cook mine...I have mushies in mine too
No matter what kind of day I'm having even if it's on the downside all I have to do is turn on the TV and see one of your videos and it changes the whole outcome of my day you are such an amazing lady and I love your spaghetti video you look very beautiful thanks for sharing it means so much to me
I certain love spaghetti, pasta‘s always been my favorite. I grew my own vegetables and make homemade spaghetti sauce. I can a lot of my sauce, that way I can share.. It’s very entertaining to watch you cook. I love your fried chicken the Best. Blessings.
Beautiful kitchen Ms. Helen. I am glad you are inside since its cold. Spaghetti sounds awesome... Sitting her drinking my coffee watching you. Stay warm. Stay safe. Stay blessed
