I love how you speak so naturally to all of us, as if we’re sitting in the room with you. You’re a natural at this and I love binge watching your videos. Keep them coming!!!! 💕💕
It just feels like you're speaking to me personally. You have such a pleasant easy manner about yourself it makes me feel like im sitting in the kitchen having coffee with you. Thanks so much for the time you spend to make videos and God Bless you and yours! --Shirley
Enjoyable hearing you talk about the longhorns, about their qualities as to how smart and loving they are and not as just some commodity to be used at will.
I am not sure how or why you showed up on my feed, but I like to think of it as a blessing. Lately I've been thinking about my mom and grandma and how our kitchen was the heart of our home. Guess the RU-vid algorithm knew I needed this.
I agree with Idaho Farm Gal! To heck with Netflix! I absolutely am so addicted to your videos. Just found you today and love you, your voice, your beauty, your recipes (can't wait to try the Crazy Pizza Crust and the Meatloaf), your storytelling, sharing so many things with us! Oh yes! I love Mr. Brown too! What a lovely couple you are and such a blessing to us. So many people I know will love you too. Thank you Mrs Brown! I feel like I'm visiting with a longtime friend.
I want to know how to make those wonderful vinegars and don’t forget the homemade croutons! Love learning more about you and Mr Brown. You are a great storyteller and I love your gentle spirit. You bring peace to me and that is a gift from God! Thank you! ❤️
Hi Wisconsin girl here, love watching you cook etc. we have so much in common I cook the old fashion way since I am 74 years old. My hubby and I are married 54 years and always have a huge garden which our daughter loved to help me can every year. We cooked together until she went away to college. My daughter is now President of the Chamber of Commerce in a beautiful city in Minnesota and her husband is executive Chef.
Just found you and just can’t stop watching your videos. Love your down to earth way. Love how you call your husband Mr. Brown and I am just enjoying learning all that you are teaching us. Please keep up the good work. God bless you and Mr. Brown.
I had a goat one time. One goat, a boar, normally used in Africa for meat. He was a big fellow. We bought him when he was six weeks old to be a companion to my orphaned baby walking horse. We named him Buddy. He lived with us for about two years. I wish I had the space to relate what a great companion he was and how much he added to our farm. We have many Buddy stories, but the one you brought to mind was him crossing a highway to eat my neighbors rose bushes. He absolutely loved rose bushes, so after he had eaten all of mine, he went wondering. He was huge and thought he was human. After finishing with the rose bushes he went to visit the children playing in the yard. They were terrified! He only wanted to play, but that adventure got him into trouble. Point is goats make great pets. If you ever get a chance to fall in love with one, by all means do it!
Love your channel Mrs. Lori. About 8 years ago I discovered the secret for keeping all kinds of greens and lettuces fresh for at least 1 or 2 weeks depending! Costs nothing because you have them on your counter. I take the store wrapping off... iceberg, kale, spinach, carrots or what ever it is and wrap it in some paper towels, place it in a plastic zip bag but leave it open to breathe and pop it in the fridge. I change the paper towel as it dampens. Works like a charm, and I live in humid Florida! Give this a try and let me know how it works for you please.
I absolutely love the both of you and don't really know you. Your goodness shines brightly in a world filled with avarice and greed. I look for the bright lights wherever I am in the world and I must add just a note once again that your kindness is noticed and appreciated.
Oh Lori, It’s so good to see you!! I love your kitchen. Thanks for all you shared...and Thanks for the tips about the bread bags. I love kale too and that is a great way to prepare it!! Love, Mary ❤️😘❤️
You and Mr Brown are so amazing. Wish I knew 1/10 of all you do! God bless you and your family and thank you for taking the time to make these videos. Enjoy them so much!
I've been binge-watching since i found your channel.. You are living the life that i WISH I was living.. I know exactly what you are talking about when you described your little store.. there was one just like it in my family's home town in Louisiana... it was right at the mouth of the inner "island" of the oxbow lake at home. The lake had been a loop of the adjacent Mississippi river, which had changed it's course and silted in , becoming a lake.. There is ( or was) a sunken paddle-wheel boat at one end of the lake that was discovered many years ago during a drought... The little lake store had groceries, fish tackle and bait, a lunch meat counter, and small short-order grill, cold drinks, candy and gas.. It had wide-plank wood floors that creaked when you walked..The family that owned it during my earliest memories of it, lived in the back of the store.. We used to wait for the school bus from there every morning.. It eventually sold and then, years later burned down... To me, it was what a country store SHOULD be.. the only thing it didn't carry was livestock feed and vegetable starts.. Thanks for reminding me of sweet memories!
What a wonderful video sharing some of the interesting experiences you and your family have had over the years. I started watching your videos a little over week ago and I've gone back-and-forth between some of the older and newer ones and I enjoy them so much! Thank you again for sharing your life with us. As I've seen many subscribers notes you have such a soothing calming voice and demeanor and you have such a sweet soul. Thank you again.
I love watching your videos. I have lots of family from Arkansas, including my mom and my late grandma, and your videos bring back so many memories. When I first started watching you, I knew you had to be from Arkansas because of the way you phrase things. Thank you for all the memories. God bless you.
Sounds like a healthy strong life you have had plus showing your children how to live by working hard. Wish there were more people like you both in this world coming up
We loved this one, too! Being extremely nostalgic and sharing so many of the same type of memories, it warms our hearts to hear about your life. Please keep taking care of yourselves so you can continue to be a part of our lives online. We are praying for both of you. You have NO IDEA just how meaningful it is to have something wholesome to watch in these trying times, as your videos remind us that we are not alone in this world. God bless you both!
Hi from Michigan. I watched one of your videos, and now I can't stop. Your so down to earth, and I love your southern accent. I could listen to you all day. You have some great gardening tips, and I love that you cook from scratch. Watching how you can your food is very educational, for me. My Mom, who passed away, would can food, but I never took the time, I wish I had, to learn that from her. I regret that now that she's gone. Do you know how to make cha cha ? Some call it chow chow, but my Grandmother and Mom called it cha cha. They used green tomatoes, pickling spice, sugar... not sure what else goes into it, but they would grind all of the vegetables up, cook it in a big pot and can a bunch of jars of it. We would eat it with greens and beans. I was wondering if you ever made any, and if so, do you have a video of that recipe? I've been craving it and want to make some. Thank you for taking the time, to make and share these videos. As a new subscriber haven't seen them all, but plan on watching a lot of them. 😊
I love your videos, they inspire. Don't be afraid to use the pineapple rind for the vinegars-My grandmother cleaned the outside peel with white vinegar lol! She also filled a jar with pineapple vinegar, hot peppers, garlic cloves, bay leaf & black pepper..sweet heat in a bottle! Thank you for sharing your wonderful life!
I grew up in the city but my mom was from rural North Carolina and spending summers there taught me a love of southern foods. Watching you cook on the homestead keeps me grounded and appreciate your delicious recipes. Thank you!
Loved hearing about your life with Mr Brown❣️. You are so sweet and caring. Wish you were my neighbor 😊. I’m so inspired by you and what you make. It makes me remember the days past that I did things like you do. I’m going to try to restore my self and do back to those things. You have know idea how you and your life has been on me and others. I just can’t say it enough. We just love you two!😊❤️
Amazon needs to pay you! I just bought the fresh bags on Amazon and yesterday I watched one of your videos and ordered the scoops from Amazon. Thank God for you just love you and watching your videos you make my day Lori!
I love your channel❤️ I lived in the Carolinas long ago. Watching you reminds me of sitting on the porch, snapping beans, chatting. I’m a grandma now myself living in rural Oklahoma. Love your down home views.
I remember going to Yellville one year with my husbands parents, their other two kids and their spouses, the grandkids and a couple of aunts. We rode in 3 cars with walkie talkies to keep together. No cell phones back then. We stayed at a campground and went exploring to the place where grandpa had lived when he was 10-13 years old. It was still there and the grandsons were 10 & 13 yo and were amazed and loved it so much. They saw the waterfall behind the old house that provided water from a trough to the kitchen. They explored the cave under the waterfall that grandpa never had the nerve to go into - but the boys were going to and then backed out, also. We saw the barn that Papa had worked out of and it was the trip of a lifetime. Afterwards, my husband and I drove home separately since the family was going on to Tennessee and we had to get back to work. We did take every back road possible and at one point we drove off the pavement and over a dry creek bed. That road ended at the Strawberry River that you mentioned in this video. The road department signs had routed us over the old bridge since the new one had gotten so old they were replacing it. Honest. We stared at the old wooden bridge we were about to go over and decided to wait for a car to come and go over first before we actually rode over ourselves. It was one lane and the boards rattled as we drove over it - as fast as we dared. We could see the river below through the slats between the wood planks we were driving over. I held my breath the whole way. When we got to the other side, we stopped the car and took pictures as no one was going to believe we actually drove over that old bridge. I have never forgotten the name of that river and now I'm 73. Thanks for a beautiful but scary 40 year old memory.
Oh mary what great memories, I love Arkansas, I was raised by my grandparents on 160 acre farm, in a old 100 year old farm house, no bathroom, no running water, we had a big creek that ran through the farm, we took our baths there in the summer, we raised everything we ate, such sweet times! God Bless,xoxoxo
Thank you, i just really enjoy your videos and your cooking , you inspire me to get back nto my kitchen, and thanks for letting us know more about you and Mr. BROWN.
This was wonderful, Miss Lori! Loved seeing how you made that great vinegarette. And of course, I loved hearing about some of the things from your past. That's always something I'm interested, 'cause EVERYONE has a story. Everything we've experienced through our lifetime makes us the person we are, now. So I VERY much enjoyed hearing about some of the things you and Mr Danny have done through the years. I'd love to hear more stories. God bless.
You are such a joy to watch! Sharing your lives & experiences touches my heart. You & Mr. Brown cooking over the fire reminded me of childhood camping trips to Colorado. Thank you. And Hi from San Antonio TX :) Be well, take care & God Bless.
I just found your channel a few days ago, and I am SO happy I did! :) I absolutely LOVE your videos! ...It’s so nice to feel like I’m standing in your kitchen watching you cook, make new and interesting things and having a chat! Thank you very much! Many blessings to you!
I remember the old store the one in my town would echo when you walk in the store.they had sunshine cookies in big jars.I'm 68 year old and I miss those day.
Your entire face lights up talking of those cattle! Plain to see that is a precious memory. And you seem to share a love of raw leaves, hahahaha. No I love kale, too, braised with fresh garlic and vinegar. Many thanks !
I stumbled on to your channel yesterday and I could jump up and down for joy! I grew up in the south east and have missed it some days. I am 72 and just love your recipes. I am busily catching up on your videos.
I just found you this morning because I couldn't sleep, I feel like I have known you my whole life 😁😂😀 I really enjoy listening to you and your sweet voice. You sound like me and my family 💜
I just found you all’s channel and I can’t tell you how much I am enjoying the videos. It’s like visiting with old friends. Thank you all so much. Looking forward to watching them all.
I stumbled across your channel on Thursday and have watched several of your videos, beginning with the crazy pizza crust. Your personality is so warm and inviting and I could listen to your stories for hours! Many blessings to you and your family in 2020 and beyond.
You have got to be one of the sweetest woman I’ve ever seen. You love to cook! I’m a Texas girl myself.im a city girl, but I love where you live. Thank you so much for bringing your love to my screen.
My grandparents ran a small country store and gas station in their little town in Oklahoma. It was so fun to go and help out at their store when I was growing up.
I’m sooo glad to have found You! I just Love You! You are so remarkable and make everything come to life in such an easy way. You make me see out a window back in my life! Thank-you Sweet Doll
I love your massage method of dressing a salad. I would think you'd waste a lot less dressing that way. Y'all sure have had a varied career over the years. It was wonderful to hear about it. I really appreciate your review of the linen bread bags. I have Tupperware bread keepers, and they do keep homemade bread fresh and soft, but they only work for regular loaves of bread. I suppose a Tupperware bowl would work on the round loaves, but I don't have any and they're so darned expensive now. What I do have is a lot of vintage high-quality Irish linen that I can't seem to stop buying at the garage sales and flea markets. Don't see why I can't cut up the ones with flaws and make bread bags. And, maybe if I make some beeswax wrappers to use instead of wax paper, it would keep the bread softer? What do you think? I have a bunch of beeswax, too. Loved the vlog!
Sounds like you’ve lived a rich full life and I’m so happy that you got to do that. I love your channel and you and Mr. Brown. Such sweet people. I live in Kentucky but I would love to live closer to you. I love to cook and even though I’m 52 years old I still feel like I could learn so much from you and have learned through your channel. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us❤️❤️❤️
Those linen bread bags look lovely! Although I can see how bread could dry out after a few days. Here's a thought: wrap the loaves in waxed fabric, then put in the bread bag. The waxed fabric will hold in moisture like a plastic bag, but it's washable and re-usable. "2leelou Creates" has a video about making them yourself (which means you can chose your own fabric pattern!). I haven't tried it yet, but it looks promising. Next time pineapple goes on sale I'm going to can some! Thanks for your inspiring and educational videos. :)
Lovely video. Thank you. I could listen to you all day. Love to hear what your life has been like. Were the exact same age but our lives have been so so different. I've got a tale or two about my life 2 but your much braver than me and can stand in front of a camera. I would run a mile lol.. I expect many women have but you have such a wonderful way of telling everyone your story. Keep it coming x
You are my Julia Child! Love your spirit, wholesome talk and memories with Mr. Brown. I just can't imagine what a childhood must have been like-very rich I am sure on the things that a lot of us never had a chance to experience. Thank You!
New subscriber! 🥰 I’m loving you darlin. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I greatly appreciate it. It’s late and as I was watching I heard your rooster and I jumped up thinking it was mine. Giggle! Love you sugar! God bless you!
I love your channel. It’s so refreshing to hear good talk and not vulgar stuff or bad language. I don’t do those channels. Love your simple cooking. I am a country girl and love it.
Hey Lori, I could see you and Danny running a feed and grocery store 👍! I've gone back to my old timey feed store to get my dirt and seed potatoes. I just feel they know what there doin and trust there judgement. Thanks for sharing. JO JO IN VT 💕😄
I live in zone 6a close to St Louis. I tried winter gardening for the first time last winter. I grew broccoli, cabbage, kale, swiss chard, Asian greens, lettuce, and onions. It did great! Winter gardening is way easier than summer. I bought 12 gauge wire to build hoops over the produce. Just enough height for clearance. Agribon 30 row cover fabric. Rocks to hold the fabric down. I'd uncover the garden when it was above freezing. Cover it up when it got below freezing. And used a double layer when it got really cold. I had fresh greens and onions all winter. I easily recouped the cost of the wire and fabric that winter with my savings on the grocery budget. Anyway, you mentioned loving being able to get fresh produce out of the garden and this is super easy to do. No bugs, no weed pressure, no disease, the deer left it alone, no watering. The only work was uncovering and recovering the plants, and occasionally removing damaged leaves.
Love your channel. Your are a true pioneer woman, right down to your cabin. Love it and I watch for hours. Our children today need to watch how you grow your own food , and preserve what you grow. Cook from scratch what you eat. I have seven grandchildren and they can grow their food , but not a clue on how to preserve it.
Thank you so much for the kale and lettuce storing tip! I hate to waste anything. I can't see well enough to drive anymore so I like to buy produce and store it for a few days. I will try that fresh paper. I'm learning so much watching your videos. And I enjoy your stories. It's crazy hot here.
I had a moth problem several years ago. I learned that you have to find the nursery. I had to go through everything in my pantry. I finally found the nursery in a bag of flour or grits or something like that. When I threw it out, that solved my moth problem. Now I store dry goods in tightly sealed bags or containers. Also I don't think they like pasta.
So nice that I have found your channel, been learning a lot from you! Thanks for sharing your talent and knowledge with us. God bless you and your family. Keep it comin’!
You and Mr. Brown have done a lot in your lifetime. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. I am gonna try some of that dressing. God Bless You and Mr. Brown. Huggggggggggs
Lord! I love you! SERENE! THAT is what is reflected on your lovely face, Lori! You don’t regret your life and it SHOWS! What a JOY you are! You know, you’re just 4 yrs older than my oldest daughters daughter, Holly. I’m old... 73. But thanks to the miracle of medicine I still here! 4 weeks ago they weren’t sure I would be! The good Lord just wasn’t ready for me. And I’m taking advantage of that! Got more cooking to do and more recipes to try! Lol 🌹
I found your channel last week now I’m addicted, love to listen to you and Mr. Brown chatting you make me relax, which is always a good thing for busy people. Hope to see a lot more recipes. Love, Mary in England
