I wanted inspiration for Thanksgiving dinner because it’s my first time cooking for Thanksgiving . I’m 17 . Everything looks so yummy and you’re so beautiful!
Happy Thanksgiving 2021! I just came across your video today and couldn’t stop myself from jumping up and down!! I will have you going in the kitchen with me next week. I’m not great with eyeballing measurements but I’m letting you take the lead😂I KNOW you’re going to have me throwing down in the kitchen. SO inspired right now. Running to the store now. THANK YOU!!
Girl, you were jamming in that kitchen. I loved the way you broke down that Turkey that was truly skillful. I am prepping a couple of days in advance as usual. I am really going to use some of your time management techniques. I Love to cook but ALL day is the kitchen for Thanksgiving will be a thing of the past thanks to you🥰
This was very enjoyable. The banana pudding was a nice touch! And I’ve never seen a turkey broken down like that, wow. The herbs on the turkey pieces looked so yummy. Herbs are my thing.
I missed out on thanksgiving last year with my family because of the army but I get to enjoy thanksgiving this year with them and my husband is wanting me to go all out lol that’s exactly what ima do!!😭
cornstarch slurry into the candy sweet potatoes makes a pretty glaze. Thank you for sharing this with us! I really enjoy the way you cook and don't obsess over fussy details. That's how I cook, too.
This was so well done. Very informative. I really liked how you just got right to it. No long intros, no long speeches. Thank you for sharing. I will certainly be using your recipes this Thanksgiving!
I been watching this video for the last two years. It always makes me excited for thanksgiving and gets me in the mood to cook. I got some good pointers as well. Thanks for sharing ❤
Yaaaaaassss sugar lol it’s the holidays people....girl you did that!!! I can’t wait for thanksgiving 2020. And I like that you cut up the turkey takes less time to cook #smart TFS❤️❤️❤️
Wow.......you did a phenomenal job, and all the crusines look delectable! That banana pudding, sweet potatoe pies, and mac and cheese remind me of my grandmere' s style of cooking. You are a superb cook. One of the best Thanksgiving spreads I seen on You Tube thus far. I want a plate to go! Lol
Danielle, baby girl. You get a standing ovation and a real big black choir singing just to celebrate you. Dang, honey you did the hell out of that Turkey. This year will be my First time cooking a Turkey. I always order Greenberg Turkey, but they burned down this year before I could order it. My Mom died 3 years ago and she always loved cooking our Thanksgiving & Christmas dinner. We did not have to do nothing but show up. My First year turned out great, cooking at my daughters house in Houston, 2nd year was good. This year my heart was not in it until I saw your vid. So I went bought an 12 lb Turkey since it’s just my daughter and grandson and a few of her friends. Lately I have been busy watching UA-cam for all my recipes and have thoroughly loved cooking lately. I am so Uber proud of you, you cooked that dang dinner like a sho nuff Culinary Artist. I’m truly impressed. I really stood up and gave you proper respect baby. You made that look amazingly easy as heck. You go girl. I’m going to do mine like yours this year. Thank you so much for giving me a lift about the Holiday and The Food. I’m subscribing and clicking notification button. Keep up the good work. You look like a very young baby to be so wise in your cooking efforts. Block out the hateful naysayers and keep doing you. Cause you got “IT” baby. And “IT” works for you. 🙏🏼❤️💯
I love it! I’m binge watching holiday cooking video get those small hams as well for thanksgiving. I glaze it with honey bourbon cranberry sauce too! Your dinner looks amazing 😀
What a cutie pie your clone is! Loves how you cut up that turkey. I will be cooking a turkey breast this year because there's only my brother and I, but I love the wings and legs too!
I stumbled across your channel and watching you breakdown the Turkey was interesting 🤔 Why didn't I think of that???🤕 ALL the other videos are about roasting the Turkey intact. You are different 🌈 Awesome 🤸💝🤩I subscribed 💙💜🧡💖
@@DanielleLaShawn You know none of my family (immediate or distant) has ever did potato salad for Thanksgiving ot Christmas. New Year's either for that matter. That's more like a summer, 4th of July dish to us. But to each their own, I guess. LOL
My grandmother used to make potato salad for Thanksgiving but she had a bunch of visitors. With me cooking for just my family I know they they don't all eat it so it's not always worth it to make some things even if I like them.
Me too. It's so much easier to cook it when it's broken down. Alternatively, you could also just buy the pieces you like the most rather than cooking the entire bird.
Everything looks sooo Good!!!! I had to stop the video after watching how you did the pudding!!! I went to my pantry and found some vanilla pudding mix and made it your way... OMG The texture!! Like eating a pudding cloud!!! TFS ✌️❤️
You did an amazing job! I'm gonna either cut my turkey apart like you did or do the upside down turkey like other videos showed. I might do both to compare. Either way thank you so much for showing how you cook your Thanksgiving meal. I'm definitely going to make that banana pudding though this year! It looked so good. I love how you know the measurements by just looking...awesome!
Thank you! I've never tried the turkey upside down but for me it was about the speed of cooking the pieces vs the whole bird. Let me know what you try and how you like it!
New Subscriber I watched the video from beginning to end. I like the way you explain everything so clear and thorough what you are doing.The food looks delicious... Kim H. writing from Chicago Illinois
Hi Danielle, I hv a daughter by that name..smiles.. Wow! That was a lot of work to do by yourself! You did an amazing job! Happy holidays to you nd your family. That was what we ol school folks call a serious "spread." Your grandmother taught you well; plus, you're a "clean" cook also, in which to people who grew up in my era, is just as important than the food, if not more..Lol..Not many young ladies, now-a-days have cooking skills on your level. Soon, if not already, your little twin, is ready to learn from her mother's amazing gift in the kitchen. God Bless you & yours! 🙏🏾💜🙏🏾🥰
Your vlog was amazing. You are a real cook. I’m amazed at how you made all that the day of. You don’t measure a lot but everything turns out perfect. You are very relaxed and drill right through making all those dishes. Mac n cheese looked delish. Also, loved the background music so relaxing .Couldn’t stop watching with the music playing so enjoyable. Sweet daughter. Happy Thanksgiving 🦃
Girl, o my Lord, you are the best ,and you didn’t measure a thing. Turkey looks so good,and sweet potatoes, I just can’t say enough. And all of this in 5 hours . Absolutely wonderful. I know you are wore out. Everything you make looks out of this world. Now rest, and Good bless .
I know that this video is a year ago. I am sorry that you lost a pie in this one. But girl you are helping me in 2020 for my Thanksgiving dinner. It all look good. Keep cooking girl! Love your Spread!
WOW WOW WOW... I was only gonna comment on your skill breaking down that Bird ,but LORDY... Then you had to go an make Sweet Potatoe Pie, My entire family loves Pumpkin Pie, I'm the lone Sweet Tater pie lover... And not to mention the Mac n Cheese... Im 60 an llive in Southern Ky and we ALWAYS have Mac n cheese for EVERY Holiday or Get Together...... LUV LUV LUV... THANKS so much
I enjoyed your video alot. You are so hard working and you know what you are doing. I was a little worried about the turkey breast being undercooked but it wasnt so Im pleased. Very glad I watched to the end. Your husband must be proud he made you his wifè!Cooking is ministry. God bless you, your kitchen and your family!!
Hey Danielle, I love this video, Last night I tried, I mean, I really tried to do exactly as you did in this video I got all my ingredients, set up my work space, Girl I even said I would not take a 30 minute break, 6 hours, 3 breaks, 2 glasses of wine and 5 UA-cam videos later, I quit and went to bed, I’m in the kitchen now trying to finish up, lol I could not contend with you. You are a RockStar💫 ⭐️✨🌟 and deserve an award for this dinner, Happy Thanksgiving 🦃
Lol, that is so funny. You might have a larger quantity of food to cook than me or you might just not have had as much practice. I have been a stay at home mom for 10 years and I have 4 kids so this has been my job. Don't feel bad. Lol
• Breaking down the turkey was brilliant, and surely more flavorful. • I've never seen white sugar used in candied yams. Try cooking the butter and brown sugar in a pot, along with a little pineapple juice, to make your syrup. Then pour the syrup over parboiled potatoes that are barely soft. Add your spices and bake until it all caramelizes. • Try baking your pie shells until lightly toasted before adding your filling. Good job!
Hi from GA! ❤️ Just like ours! You’re an excellent cook. Fantastic job. We like dressing instead of stuffing, baked in a pan, I use 1/2 biscuit 1/2 cornbread as base. I hope y’all are having a blessed year!
OMG....watching your video was amazing!! It was like being in the kitchen with family! I chuckled each time you added seasoning, reminded me of my Dad...he never measured anything and his food was perfectly seasoned. I’m definitely planning my Thanksgiving menu around your videos inspiration!!! Thank you for sharing, you have a new Sub! So glad your video came up on my feed today. Actually a few of them did, but yours stood out more. Great content! 😊
First time see your video and you are a GREAT COOK love how you did the sweet potatoes definitely doing mine that way this Thanksgiving ..love the gravy also..loved it all.. thank you for sharing I'll be looking forward to your next video.. Happy Holidays to you and your family.
I actually do the same thing! It’s makes the turkey incredibly juicy and tender and it’s enough hours to fully cook it no matter how big. I hope y’all have a Happy Thanksgiving and a very Merry Christmas! 🦃🍽🎄💕
Yes melt the 2 sticks of butter and when it is completely melted add 1 cup packed brown sugar., when it starts to bubble add a tablespoon vanilla cinnamon and teaspoon nutmeg. Pour it over sliced sweep potatoes and bake 50 min 375 covered.
Tip, take the back of a porcelain plate that you don’t care to mess up and run your knife over the rim of the bottom of the plate and it will sharpen it if you don’t have a knife sharpener! :)
This popped up on my suggestions and I'm so glad it did! That banana pudding recipe looked amazing. Loved the milk to cream ratio. And you better butcher that turkey! Amazing. I'm making the turkey for the first time this year and I'm nervous lol. And I love to cook. 🤦♀️
You are amazing!! You made almost every thing I would make except for the brocolli casserole and squash casserole and the dressing. Thank you sweet lady!!
Ummm ummmm everything looks so good...good job on carving that turkey up...when you showed the pie that dropped i was like nooooo, but its ok its still going to bet eaten 😊😊😊
Are you one those cooks that once everything is done you’re tired exhausted and than don’t have an appetite to eat with your family😂 Awesome job⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
@@DanielleLaShawn I’m just like your grandma😂 I eat after everyone is gone that’s when the appetite kicks in.but anyway I enjoy your videos be blessed and stay safe💕
Down home cooking great job this nov 15 2020. I just pick up your video. Just a small family so I will cook turkey parts thanks for showing that I live in Calif.with the COVID 19 going on I pray your family have a bless Thanksgiving
@@DanielleLaShawn LOLLLLL!!! After I decided to go to no one house again on Thanksgiving, my kids and I all chipped in and I would produce our own spread!!! I had them chop and stir, peel it was wonderfulllllll from then on!!! It was five of us and it was never a chore or difficult and everything all ways came out scrumptious!!! I always made a ham for the kids and I enjoyed the chicken or the turkey and the sides!!! I would make very small servings of the sides not everyone ate like potatoe salad!!! I enjoy potatoe salad with the meal!!! Most of the time I did the pies and desserts the night before!!! Now everyone is grown and gone but they all cook, even my grandson throws down!!!
You gave me a good idea. . I never thought of cutting up my Turkey.. Now I don't have to waste any. Am only cooking for myself..Thank for sharing your recipes. 😊
You did a great job with time management lol. That's a good idea to break the turkey down like that. I'm always afraid to do a while bird but I would definitely try it like that tho. Everything looks great!!! Thanks for the video
I like her Vibe. I really look forward to Thanksgiving in the next 3 days so that I can eat that great beautiful wonderful food.🦃🦃🍽🍽🎛🎚🍴🔪🍗🐓🥬🫕🍲🥘🥔🍯🍠🥣🍲🍰🎂🧁🥧🥮🍥🧁🎃🎃🍸🍷🍻🍺🥂🥂🍾🍹🍒🥖🥖🥖🌽🌽🦴🍖🥙🧋🥄
Thank you for your very real video, I love that you told us about dropping the one pie, you could have just showed one, and we would have never known, I appreciate your easy going cooking style, and real life cooking, no over the top " nobody cooks like that " fancy stuff that no one actually eats either, it's real!! Thank you so much for sharing!!💞 Happy Thanksgiving 2021! I have subscribed so I can watch more!!
A ton 😩 but believe it or not since the syrup is floating around them, the potatoes themselves aren't that sweet... And u only get to eat it a couple times a year.
I am so proud of you for preparing this entire meal. As a Vegan, I enjoyed everything except the meat portion. 🤣 I also enjoyed the Banana Pudding segment. I wish more viewers would thumbs up this video. The number of thumbs up clearly does not match the number of views. Bravo young lady! This was exceptional! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Loved the video just a tip get you an electric pressure cooker. Cuts down on time, and stove space. Definitely using mine this year! Making my broth, greens and desserts the night before.
I've only cooked cornbread ahead for my stuffing, because I've been concerned with things not tasting as fresh... But the broth is such a great idea! And I can see greens and dessert tasting better the next day too. Thank you.
You forgot to add sugar to your gravy... LOL.... I kid... those candied sweet potatoes looked delish... everything looks delicious...I will definitely try your banana pudding. Great time management. Your family is beautiful... Happy Thanksgiving...
Your thanksgiving video was super inspirational and gave me even more excitement and motivation for my dinner this year. I typically cook everything myself as well but I watch UA-cam yearly as a way to get in the holiday spirit! Your so beautiful and look and speak just like my younger sister 💗 thanks girl
You know I have never actually thought to breakdown my turkey first🤦 that's such a good idea! 💡 I most definitely will be doing that this year I love that idea
This is a great video. I like how the yam syrup came out looking rich and syrupy. I love the way you season. Your family is blessed! I hope you had no cleaning responsibilities after all that work!!! Lol. How were the turkey breasts? They looked juicy. 😋 Thanks for sharing how to be efficient in the kitchen! I can cook but Lawd it be taking me forever!
Thank you! Of course I had cleaning and putting away responsibilities after all that. Lol They key to getting in and out is multi-tasking and having a strategy for when to cook things.
I like how everybody decided to watch this within the last week
Lol it's about that time
Way to call me out😂😂😂
Lol
Gotta make my own stuff because of covid😭My state is shutting down again.
🙋🏾♀️That’s me 😂
I wanted inspiration for Thanksgiving dinner because it’s my first time cooking for Thanksgiving . I’m 17 . Everything looks so yummy and you’re so beautiful!
Aww, thank you so much! You're gonna kill it! You got this!
Aww you will do awesome! Every year you will get better and better.
So young but you go to start somewhere hope you did well
She did that! And it was satisfying to watch, very relaxing without the unnecessary sounds people do in their videos now. 🦃 ❤️
Thank you! ❤️
Happy Thanksgiving 2021! I just came across your video today and couldn’t stop myself from jumping up and down!! I will have you going in the kitchen with me next week.

@@autobotdiva9268 girl! I think that was a once in a lifetime thing. Idk about that. Lol

Thank you! Have you ever tried cooking over a couple days so it's not so overwhelming? I might do that this year.
And those yams look BOMB.. actually everything looks bomb 😩😍
Thank you!
This was very enjoyable. The banana pudding was a nice touch! And I’ve never seen a turkey broken down like that, wow. The herbs on the turkey pieces looked so yummy. Herbs are my thing.

Lol, call me Aphrodite! 😂😂 I'll take that! Happy Thanksgiving!
I loved the idea of breaking down the turkey👌
Me too. It's so much easier to cook it when it's broken down. Alternatively, you could also just buy the pieces you like the most rather than cooking the entire bird.
@@DanielleLaShawn I just wanna know, did you rinse off those legs and wings like you did with the turkey necks?
Everything looks sooo Good!!!! I had to stop the video after watching how you did the pudding!!! I went to my pantry and found some vanilla pudding mix and made it your way... OMG The texture!! Like eating a pudding cloud!!! TFS ✌️❤️

"You don't need much nutmeg"- then covers it in nutmeg LOL. I swear I love how my people season food!
Lol
U need much less nutmeg than u do cinnamon is what I meant 😂🤣
That was the cinnamon not nutmeg. I read the label and she stated it was cinnamon.
Oh my goodness! I wanted to cry for you when your pie dropped 😢. I bet it was still delicious. I like your style. 👍🏽
I'm sure I was a little annoyed at minimum. Lol, but thank you!

You are a study in time management!
I never used white sugar in my sweet potatoes just packed brown sugar. I also use kings syrup. I will try white sugar this year.
I think it has less moisture and therefore it makes a syrup easier... Could be wrong though. Lol

@@DanielleLaShawn absolutely and I’m binge-watching your channel!!😊
Lol, I love to hear it! Thank you ♥️
It's 2021Turkey Day is almost here and I enjoyed watching you. Have awesome 2022 . I wish you a safe and happy one.
Thank you so much. You too! 💕
First time see your video and you are a GREAT COOK love how you did the sweet potatoes definitely doing mine that way this Thanksgiving ..love the gravy also..loved it all.. thank you for sharing I'll be looking forward to your next video.. Happy Holidays to you and your family.
Thank you! Happy holidays to you as well. 💕
I like to slow cook the turkey all night. You can even go to sleep. It falls off the bone ❤️
I've never tried doing that. Thanks for the tip!
I actually do the same thing! It’s makes the turkey incredibly juicy and tender and it’s enough hours to fully cook it no matter how big. I hope y’all have a Happy Thanksgiving and a very Merry Christmas! 🦃🍽🎄💕
I worry about this, especially since my oven caught in fire not too long ago! Just use caution and be safe!
When you say slow cook it On wat temperature
@@gloriacarr2561 around 260 in the oven
I LOVE using some softened butter in a bowl & mixing all my spices into it then spreading it all over the turkey
That's a great way to do it too! Thanks for sharing!
Sherrisa simple cooking is here watching
when thanksgiving is near which it is in 3 days lol i love watching these you did amazing all the food looks amazing im coming over lmao
Come on! Lol
Yes melt the 2 sticks of butter and when it is completely melted add 1 cup packed brown sugar., when it starts to bubble add a tablespoon vanilla cinnamon and teaspoon nutmeg. Pour it over sliced sweep potatoes and bake 50 min 375 covered.
This was def relaxing . You did a great job 💕💕
Thank you!
You dropped one of the pies 🤣🤣🤣 your meal looks delicious 🤤 thank you for sharing 😊
Poor pie 😩😩. And you're welcome!
I'm taking all kinds of notes. Thanks!
Lol, thank you!
I NEED that knife 😍😍 cuts so smoothly
That is a super old Paula Deen knife from Walmart but I feel like you can get nice knives pretty much anywhere these days.
Tip, take the back of a porcelain plate that you don’t care to mess up and run your knife over the rim of the bottom of the plate and it will sharpen it if you don’t have a knife sharpener! :)
This popped up on my suggestions and I'm so glad it did! That banana pudding recipe looked amazing. Loved the milk to cream ratio. And you better butcher that turkey! Amazing. I'm making the turkey for the first time this year and I'm nervous lol. And I love to cook. 🤦♀️
Lol, thank you! The banana pudding is a show stopper. The turkey is so much easier to manage when it's broken down. Every piece was cooked perfectly.
Banana pudding look so good
It's sooooo good
This video was so relaxing.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you!
You are amazing!! You made almost every thing I would make except for the brocolli casserole and squash casserole and the dressing. Thank you sweet lady!!
Ummm ummmm everything looks so good...good job on carving that turkey up...when you showed the pie that dropped i was like nooooo, but its ok its still going to bet eaten 😊😊😊
Lol, thank you so much! The pie hurt my heart. ♥️
Are you one those cooks that once everything is done you’re tired exhausted and than don’t have an appetite to eat with your family😂
Awesome job⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Nope. I thoroughly enjoyed that meal... But my grandmother was definitely that way. Lol thank you! ❤️
@@DanielleLaShawn I’m just like your grandma😂 I eat after everyone is gone that’s when the appetite kicks in.but anyway I enjoy your videos be blessed and stay safe💕
You too! Blessings to you and your loved ones.
I am definitely one of those cooks😆
Great tip on cutting up the turkey to cook it faster. I think I'll do that this year. Your dinner turned out great.
Thank you! I definitely recommend cutting it up to avoid overcooking some of the pieces.
Down home cooking great job this nov 15 2020. I just pick up your video. Just a small family so I will cook turkey parts thanks for showing that I live in Calif.with the COVID 19 going on I pray your family have a bless Thanksgiving
I'll probably do turkey wings or a breast if I do turkey at all this year. And thank you! ❤️ Blessing to you as well 🙏🏽
all that cooking by herself you go girl, its time again to do it all over ..
I don't wanna do it again 😩
@@DanielleLaShawn You did a great job, I'm taking notes 😊, Thx.
@@DanielleLaShawn 🤣
@@DanielleLaShawn LOLLLLL!!! After I decided to go to no one house again on Thanksgiving, my kids and I all chipped in and I would produce our own spread!!! I had them chop and stir, peel it was wonderfulllllll from then on!!! It was five of us and it was never a chore or difficult and everything all ways came out scrumptious!!! I always made a ham for the kids and I enjoyed the chicken or the turkey and the sides!!! I would make very small servings of the sides not everyone ate like potatoe salad!!! I enjoy potatoe salad with the meal!!! Most of the time I did the pies and desserts the night before!!! Now everyone is grown and gone but they all cook, even my grandson throws down!!!
Awesome tutorial and very relaxing. I was eating with my eyes and stomach the whole entire time.
Lol, thank you! 💕
Love how you got the whole meal going at once instead of one at a time. Everything look delicious!!
Yes! That's a must. You'll be in the kitchen all day without multi-tasking.
You gave me a good idea.
. I never thought of cutting up my Turkey.. Now I don't have to waste any. Am only cooking for myself..Thank for sharing your recipes. 😊
You're welcome!
You did a great job with time management lol. That's a good idea to break the turkey down like that. I'm always afraid to do a while bird but I would definitely try it like that tho. Everything looks great!!! Thanks for the video
Thank you!!
Also, with your banana pudding you might also like the version with cream cheese and sweetened milk and also chessman cookies. Amazing!!!
I’m very impressed with your recipes and appreciate the flow of your work. Thanks so much for sharing. 🤗❣️
Thank you for watching and for your kind comments.
The turkey looks so juicy😍😍
It was 😋 that's why it's worth breaking it down
Yeah, I remember coming home from work, getting a shower, and started on the dinner. I did this every year unless I was off during that time
did she mention, making a roux?
oooh!
I like her Vibe. I really look forward to Thanksgiving in the next 3 days so that I can eat that great beautiful wonderful food.🦃🦃🍽🍽🎛🎚🍴🔪🍗🐓🥬🫕🍲🥘🥔🍯🍠🥣🍲🍰🎂🧁🥧🥮🍥🧁🎃🎃🍸🍷🍻🍺🥂🥂🍾🍹🍒🥖🥖🥖🌽🌽🦴🍖🥙🧋🥄
Lol, thanks. I hope your meal is amazing!
Spoon the broken pie into teacups and top with spoonful of whipped cream and sprinkle on cinnamon
That's a cute idea!
Thank you for your very real video, I love that you told us about dropping the one pie, you could have just showed one, and we would have never known, I appreciate your easy going cooking style, and real life cooking, no over the top " nobody cooks like that " fancy stuff that no one actually eats either, it's real!! Thank you so much for sharing!!💞
Happy Thanksgiving 2021! I have subscribed so I can watch more!!
Thank you so much! Happy Thanksgiving!! 💕
That’s a shit load of sugar Lol my kids would be in pure heaven at your house 🤣
A ton 😩 but believe it or not since the syrup is floating around them, the potatoes themselves aren't that sweet... And u only get to eat it a couple times a year.
Gots to be about a cup in a pie recipe.Nothing better,but it's only a holiday thing.
Lol 😂 right mines too!
I am so proud of you for preparing this entire meal. As a Vegan, I enjoyed everything except the meat portion. 🤣 I also enjoyed the Banana Pudding segment. I wish more viewers would thumbs up this video. The number of thumbs up clearly does not match the number of views. Bravo young lady! This was exceptional! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you so much!
Loved the video just a tip get you an electric pressure cooker. Cuts down on time, and stove space. Definitely using mine this year! Making my broth, greens and desserts the night before.
I'm not opposed to a pressure cooker but I am opposed to 2 days of cooking. 😩😩
I've only cooked cornbread ahead for my stuffing, because I've been concerned with things not tasting as fresh... But the broth is such a great idea! And I can see greens and dessert tasting better the next day too. Thank you.
The pressure cooker and a kitchen aide mixer would help you tremendously. Softening butter to room temp. Speeds process.Great job!!
You forgot to add sugar to your gravy... LOL.... I kid... those candied sweet potatoes looked delish... everything looks delicious...I will definitely try your banana pudding. Great time management. Your family is beautiful... Happy Thanksgiving...
I kid 😂😂😂 my husband used to say that.
Your thanksgiving video was super inspirational and gave me even more excitement and motivation for my dinner this year. I typically cook everything myself as well but I watch UA-cam yearly as a way to get in the holiday spirit! Your so beautiful and look and speak just like my younger sister 💗 thanks girl
Thank you so much! All high praise! ❤️
Good Girl yo momma is happy because your food looks good keep up the good work QUEEN
Thank you
You know I have never actually thought to breakdown my turkey first🤦 that's such a good idea! 💡 I most definitely will be doing that this year I love that idea
let us know how you like it!
Hello from Ohio ❤️ just found your video! I could feel the love you put into your cooking. Thank you for making this ❤️
Thank you so much for watching, and for your kind comment. It's truly appreciated. 💕
So interesting how everyone makes their sweet potatoes differently. Looks delish!
Sweet potatoes are definitely something that everyone does differently.
You ain't no joke with that knife 👏👏👏🦃🦃🦃🦃
Lol 🔪🔪
Would've loved to see you make a plate of everything together
This is a delicious meal about how much I'm cooking for my family and friends.
I'm sure yours will be delicious too! Happy holidays! ❤️
This is a great video. I like how the yam syrup came out looking rich and syrupy. I love the way you season. Your family is blessed! I hope you had no cleaning responsibilities after all that work!!! Lol.
How were the turkey breasts? They looked juicy. 😋 Thanks for sharing how to be efficient in the kitchen! I can cook but Lawd it be taking me forever!
Thank you! Of course I had cleaning and putting away responsibilities after all that. Lol
They key to getting in and out is multi-tasking and having a strategy for when to cook things.
@@DanielleLaShawn FOR SHAMEEE! I support a full sitting next year.😂
Yes, I def need to work on my multitasking skills.
