yesterday I was hard on myself because I keep looking at the things I haven't done (instead of appreciating what I do) - I come and watch your channel and I find myself happier and feeling like I just need to continue. You may not know what a difference you make - you do! Really, thank you for giving me a cheerful start to my day.
When making butter cream frosting. Make sure the butter is room temp. Squishy but not melty. Beat it until creamy and then add powdered sugar until crumbly. Then flavor like vanilla and then milk or cream until the proper consistency. Beat it with the mixer to get some air into it also. I never follow a recipe for most everything. My husband calls me a passionate cook. I call myself an intuitive cook. I just toss in a few sticks of butter, depending on how much i want to make, and go. To frost try placing the tip down close to the cupcake and squeezing until it fills out until closer to the edge and then pulling up and doing again and again until happy with it. Also don’t pull up in the bag until you are done applying pressure to the bag and try using a small rounded flick when you lift the bag.
Kimmy, you're awesome!!! You do inspire us, I hope you know that! I am normally a very festive person at the holidays & I had planned on making up little treat bags for the grandkids (even though they are way older...in their teens) but talked myself out of it by nixing my own idea telling myself I was being silly! Now after watching your video, I realize that I shouldve done my idea for the grandkids! Ahhhh! Its the day before Halloween, and I've got to get busy doing it! Next time Im going to tell myself not to give up on my own ideas!!! 😁🕸🍊
Love your in-laws costumes!! The Witches Tea looked like so much fun... When Denice was taking pics for her Instagram and you said "we are just her props!" 😂😂 I laughed so hard!!. As always thanks for sharing!
Tip tricks advice on buttercream frosting? Don’t make it! No one likes it! Everyone will say too sweet! You want to please the crowd? Make a cream cheese icing! Always a hit! Coming from a prof cake baker..... luv ya Kimmy❤️
they have little tiny forks at Dollar Tree in the wedding section, check it out for your future parties, tons cheaper. Yeah!!!! And they're silver, and posh looking.
Thank you for sharing. I so needed to see this today. It's a little bit of joy, in my sometimes boring work from home day. The cookies and cupcakes looked so good. Also, I love the skeleton dish:0)
Great video Kimmy, what was that machine you used to make the frosting in? I've never seen anything like it before. The food looks fabulous and that Witches tea was just, well, just Awesome. Really good fun
It all looks so fun. Especially loved the witch"s tea. Do you mind if I ask what kind of tea you were serving? I usually drink herbal but do not put milk in it. Thanks. Happy Halloween!
Love it. My son's 8th birthday is tomorrow and he is praying for snow. We live in Oklahoma and it is nasty cold. We might have some snow today. Great video as always Kimmy
Hi Kim! Wow, you're getting some snow?😂☃️ I'm from Canada and haven't seen snow yet! You outdone yourself at your Halloween party! Everything look so delicious. Your friend Denise, omg, she was halarious! 😂 You girls look like a fun bunch! Happy Halloween!🕷️🕸️🎃
If you do inside out leave it more flat and you get a rose...outside in gives you more of the bakery cupcake look. Slightly overlap either :) They look amazing just the way you did them though :) Also, I have that pan and a 48 mini muffin pan...love them both.
Heather! Your mom and dad how fun! I love those cookies, wish I had some tight now. You are so busy. It’s all just so cute. You outdid yourself. So did Denise of course, so much fun going on at tea, so funny! Thanks for all that work you do. REST! 💀👹👿🤡☠️
I mix my cupcake mix in a bottle with a lid so I can shake and pour into the moulds with ease (kinda like the pancake mix shakers) It works well too for big batch muffins, especially if you have them for breakfast as you can pour out how many you want each day and refrigerate the rest (nothing better than warm muffins)
You did awesome on your party! I thought my grandson loved Halloween but I think you have him beat! Lol. 🎃👻 witches tea was so funny! Thanks for sharing!
Did you add broth to the roasts of just season salt and onions?!When i make a buttercream frosting I always add the milk a lil warm same with when I make mashed potatoes I heat the milk and butter,everything came out super cute
Hi Kimmy, loved everything about the Halloween party, the FOOD LOOKED SO SO GOOD. The Witches Tea was so nice, you have some really good friends, I can tell everyone had an amazing time. God bless always :)
The food and the cupcakes all look amazing! You’ve inspired me to try making my own buttercream frosting, as I am making cupcakes for our Halloween too!
Hi there Kimmy! Excellent video!!!! You did such a great job on your Halloween party!!!! It all looked fantastic 😁. The witches tea looked like so much fun. Such awesome memories for everyone. Have a nice day! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🎃👻🎃👻🎃👻🎃👻🎃👻🎃👻
Witches Tea was such a great idea. The Salem Witch trials were such an attack on women and I feel like you are honouring them (intentionally or unintentionally) by taking joy in female friendships and creating strong female bonds. Calling a woman a witch was an attempt to take away that strength and malign bonds that some men couldn’t understand and therefore feared. Strong and supportive female friend groups are so beneficial ♥️
This soo makes me wanna live next door to you and atend all this Halloween partiets and that witches the looks so fun. Here in Sweden im lucky if i get to attend one Halloween party every few years.
Try a mixer for shredding your beef.... Same like what you used for your batter right after ( I use a single blade ) It gets it shredded in seconds and you can do it in the bowl you want yo leave it in. You are a million times ahead of me and I use you for so many tips and inspirations when I saw you dont do this I was like Yay I can give something back!!!!! Anyways I make a lot of pulled pork/beef bbq sandwiches and my husband actually learned this from a lady at another church it works with chicken cooked in crockpot as well just cook in crockpot ( drain if desired ) and use mixer single blade to shred !!! 😎😎😎
Happy Halloween! My favorite holiday ever! So much so i got married on it!!!!! Such a fun vlog! Thanks for the laughs!!! Love the witches tea party!❤💜💛💚💙
Have you tried to do the Mississippi roast in the instant pot on slow cook? I did and it’s like it did not cook the same. I could barely get it to shred, very difficult. I tried a couple of other dishes and meat didn’t cook all the way with the slow cook method. So not sure if it’s the instant pot is just not as good as a slow cooker crock pot or what I even extended the cook time by an extra hour or two. I even asked the Costco butcher if he knew what I did wrong. Like maybe too much fat in the cut of beef and the fat didn’t melt all the way. I also tried to do stew same thing potatoes and carrots were also hard and it cooked all day.🤷🏼♀️am I the only one this has happened to? Loved the Halloween party, this whole week is just flying by so fast.
Denise looks like a real witch 🤔🤣😁😂 ( in a good way.) Love the witches tea party you ladies look like you had a blast😂😁🤣🎃 btw All of you ladies are beautiful 🧡🧡🧡

Omg... I love all your festivities but the witches' tea was my favorite lol. So much fun!
You are such an inspiration to reach for the sky. Thank you.
I was crying because I was laughing so hard at Denise! She's a riot! Then you saying we're just her props. Tears!!
Thank you for being such an encouragement, Kimmie! I love watching your videos!
So nice to see Heather! Denise is too much! I think there was something in that Witch's Brew, ladies! X
The other day I saw on my Instagram the fat Thor costume and it says “finally a hero we all can relate too “ 😅😂
Heather and Denise together would be a hoot!
your buttercream looked delicious Kimmy :) in fact all your food looked amazing!! love seeing Heather in your vlogs too!
I dressed as Winifred Sanderson for this year! So much fun!
FYI, I have used other old beaters in different mixers. When the mixer dies I keep the beaters, whips, etc for extras.
"You know how you say it? Cheese board." Hahahah love it!

It all looks so fun. Especially loved the witch"s tea. Do you mind if I ask what kind of tea you were serving? I usually drink herbal but do not put milk in it. Thanks. Happy Halloween!
I love your wedding ring and I’ve noticed that it still looks just as pretty as when you got it. Can you tell me where it is from?
Love it. My son's 8th birthday is tomorrow and he is praying for snow. We live in Oklahoma and it is nasty cold. We might have some snow today. Great video as always Kimmy

Great video! you are such an inspiration! Would love to see a video of the kitchen gadgets/ appliances that you use day to day and for big parties.
Great to see Heather!!! The Witches Taa was hilarious!

Love the spoon loved all keep going I haven’t done a thing I three hours I have been watching your videos love love them
Witches Tea reminded me of the days of all us girls get togethers. Always had a theme
I love your scarf! Also I think making chocolate buttercream is so much easier then white buttercream.
What a fun few days you've had. i enjoyed it all. Happy Happy Halloween to you and your family.
💖 I love your videos!! You are a lovely family. It can make me feel a bit lonely at tims, but happy! 💖 Thanks for sharing your family!!!!!!👍🙏👻
Omg Denise is a hoot she needs her own UA-cam channel😂🤣witches tea🎃I think I need to start that tradition in my neck of the woods!❤️
You should! Easiest thing to throw together!
Loved it especially the witches tea. You always make it like we are right there with ya! 😊
How fun!!!
Love all the decorations!!!
Put a dot in the middle and go from the outside in. The dot in the middle helps it go up
Heather! Your mom and dad how fun! I love those cookies, wish I had some tight now. You are so busy. It’s all just so cute. You outdid yourself. So did Denise of course, so much fun going on at tea, so funny!
Thanks for all that work you do. REST! 💀👹👿🤡☠️
So I'm a cake decorator I always start in the middle. Also I whip my butter until it turns white and fluffy and I really like making it the day before
I mix my cupcake mix in a bottle with a lid so I can shake and pour into the moulds with ease (kinda like the pancake mix shakers)
It works well too for big batch muffins, especially if you have them for breakfast as you can pour out how many you want each day and refrigerate the rest (nothing better than warm muffins)
You did awesome on your party! I thought my grandson loved Halloween but I think you have him beat! Lol. 🎃👻 witches tea was so funny! Thanks for sharing!
Omg....you all are so funny, esp at the witches tea! I’m dieting! 😂😂😂😭😭😭👻👻👻💀💀💀🎃🎃🎃

You make Hollidays for your family amazing!
Buttercream is yummy, but tricky, if it gets even slightly too warm it will collapse and slither right off your cupcakes
Denise and her tea party is everything! 🖤🧡
that mixer looks so great, never seen it before!
Thank you for your videos, have learned some really good recipes and enjoy seeing your smiling face. You have made a very difficult time easier. 😊

You had such a few great Halloween packed days! So fun to watch 🤗
Refrigeration tech here , your fridge more than likely only needs a top up on gas and possibly a new fan at worst.
Thank you
The cupcakes look amazing. Happy Halloween. 🎃🍁
Lol looked like fun . Thank you for sharing.
Loved your witche's tea party! Awesome idea. It lookes like you all had a lot of fun.
Denise looks like a real witch 🤔🤣😁😂 ( in a good way.) Love the witches tea party you ladies look like you had a blast😂😁🤣🎃 btw All of you ladies are beautiful 🧡🧡🧡
