Sometimes UA-cam gets it right ! I’ve never been so happy with a UA-cam suggestion than I am with yours ! You’re a delight and I so look forward to your videos. I am watching all the old ones when I can as well.
i’ve been feeling blue lately I lost my husband 3 years ago and i turned on your show and you always pick up my spirits when i watch you !!! Thank you for all the work you put into these shows to make them so special 💖Blessings to you❤
I'm thrilled your channel has done so well, Kevin! You bring an elegant, gentle spirit to your videos, and it's lovely to see a gentleman sharing his passion for beautiful flowers, home styling and good, old-fashioned comfort cooking! Best wishes from Sarah xo (Victoria, Australia)
And best wishes from sydney ❤️💚💜💙❤️
I love making homemade biscuits! When my daughter was small, she always loved eating the butter and the flour even before the biscuits were cooked. But the very last biscuit, I didn’t cut it with the biscuit cutter, was formed by hand into the “ugly biscuit“ and my daughter always loved to eat the “ugly biscuit“ as it always had some extra crispy points on it. And it was a special biscuit 😉 Thanks for the wonderful memory! 😊
Wonderful story!
@@kevinleejacobs1364 hope you’re staying safe where you are in New York. I am in Southern New Hampshire. Thankfully we only got a little bit of rain and thunder. Can’t wait for the next video!
Kevin, I lived in Atlanta for many years all my relatives are from there but I spent 27 in Florida. You will enjoy my grandma’s recipe.
1 cup of full fat butter milk
1/3 cup of mayonnaise
2 cups Gold Medal Self-Rise flour
Blend mayonnaise in buttermilk throughly. Pour into flour. It will be a very think wet batter. Put 1 cup of the self rise flour in a 2 “ deep brownie pan then dump the dough in there and flow over letting the flour coat the batter, and fold about 6-8 times until you can mash it to 1 1/2” thick. Then cut out your biscuits and bake them in a 350 degree oven for 15 minutes until light golden brown brushing them liberally with melted butter. (You will never know there is Mayo in the recipe. For a more tangy biscuit, Dukes Mayo is marvelous.
YOU’RE WELCOME!
I will have to try your grandma's recipe!
My mom also used mayonnaise when she made dinner rolls
Good morning! Always so delighted to see your new content! Thank you so much for sharing! 💯👍
How different today's flower arrangement, not of your usually close-clustered comfortable crowd of blossoms; but rather, a loose & airy pinning of petaled stalks that cleanly separates off each flower -even of those identical- from the other, highlighting [ their ] pure individuality. / Happy days of hours & always best of health. // D.C
"Like folding a business letter." Well, Kevin, your aim is obviously the over 50 crowd. 😘
No. All ages love Kevin😊
All ages may love Kevin but only those aged 50.or older know what a business letter is.
@@lesliecas2695some of us in our early 30s learned how to format, write, and fold a business letter in school although we have rarely if ever used that knowledge as adults 😆

Kevin, I found you a couple of months ago and have been enjoying all your videos. I am now going through all your old videos and found the one with cabbage and eggs. I made it and love it. It will be a new recipe for me to be making quite often. Thanks again for all the videos. I love all the farm stores you go to. I live in the Midwest and I don't have anything like those around me I wish I did. Made a few more of your recipes.
Dear Kevin, I love your gorgeous videos! Thank you so much!❤❤❤
This actually feels like I’m invited to your tea party. Thank you for sharing this precious moment with us!
kevin your flower arrangements are always so lovely! thank you for sharing this recipe with us looks heavenly 🫶🏽
That flower arrangement is fabulous and the food too.
Your flower arrangements are always beautiful! Your table setting is very inviting and welcoming. Would love to have afternoon tea with you... 💙🌿💙
Your arrangements always look unique & better than professional as they reflect your personality as you choose them, & that makes the flowers even more special when you share them with us. Biscuits & jam looked delicious!
Thank you, for yet another inspiring video. Love the garden and layout. Beautiful area to live in.
In Germany, there is sugar especially for jams with 1:1, 1:2 and 1:3, i.e. one part sugar, 3 parts fruit. The sugar contains gelatine. Less sugar, less sweet and fewer calories!
This would be appreciated if you could share a recipe for jams i.e. one part sugar, 3 parts fruit. Thank you!
I started using Pomona instead of regular pectin. It requires way less sugar and produces delicious jams!
I think you do a great job at arranging the flowers. actually very good. decorating with flowers gives me great joy. Good job!!
We have a small farmers market where we get fresh strawberries during the season. Unfortunately the season is just about over. Don’t know why, but your videos make me very emotional. Thank you.
Emotional in a good way, I hope!
@@kevinleejacobs1364 There’s something very touching about it all; the music, your house, being an animal lover, your gardens. It’s lovely.
Love your informative videos. You have a beautiful home.
I am sitting on my back porch in the beautiful sunshine with my small back porch garden eating hot coffee and the best biscuits I have EVER put in my mouth! I don't make or eat biscuits often but after watching your show yesterday I just had to try the recipe!! I cut it in half because there is just myself and my two cats, Big Guy and Little Man. I didn't have coconut oil so I had to use butter. But with out a doubt they were the lightest, most tender biscuits I ever made, let alone ever ate. Thank your for the recipe and thank you for your video which, after I discovered it, have been "binge" watching. So enjoy your music and your subjects. Please don't quit!!!!
Hi Kevin, I don’t drive anymore so I thoroughly enjoy your drives to Tierra Farms and the other stores. You live in a very pretty part of the country.
Kevin thanks for being the modern day home economics class. Your videos are priceless and everlasting. Thanks for being our life teacher and coach 😊
Life teacher? Life coach? That's a bit strong, don't you think?
@@tombroughton6757 Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Thanks for respecting mines. Good Day to you
Sure miss my mom's freezer jam...nothing like it! She used the yellow box too😊❤
@@tombroughton6757 depends on perspective
I'm so glad I wore my pearls today so that I could clutch them dramatically when you added the sugar! 😄 Thank you for another fun video!
Hi Kevin! You bring so much beauty to us with your lovely persona and delicious recipes. Growing up in Santiago de Chile, tea time was the most important time of the day. I still have my tea time with a yummy treat every single day here in USA. Thank you so much. ❤️
Dear Kevin,your videos are a nightcap for me in India .....lovely flower arrangement....you are not only self effacing but a really aesthetic person....
Yes, it is strawberry season here, and I will surely make the jam....thank you so much.
By the way, you are wearing my favorite shirt😊
Lovely choice of flowers Kevin ❤
Thank you for making my life more rich because of your videos - 9pm Gander Newfoundland Canada
Hi Kevin, I live in Oregon. We have Hood strawberries here. They are tiny, sweet & expensive. The grocery stores here do not carry them. Our grocery stores only carry the giant beautiful yet flavorless California strawberries. I don't use pectin to make strawberry jam. I cook equal parts strawberries & sugar with a splash of lemon juice. I'm allergic to fresh fruits and vegetables but can eat them cooked or canned. That's why I cook my strawberries. You gave me a good idea though. Next time I make jam I will put them through the blender first. That way I won't have to mash them. Thank You, and as usual, I thoroughly enjoy your videos. Keep them coming, Hope you have a wonderful summer. Chin Chin
Honestly Kevin, I could watch you all day long!! Love this new episode! I really enjoy going back and watching all your previous episodes.
Hallo, Kevin, sehr interessante Rezepte. Danke❤❤
Morning Kevin
Never made jam. I may try it. It looks so easy. Have a nice day.
I enjoy watching your videos, you are very good at arranging flowers, i also like the music in the background ❤
Im in love with the Berry Farm store! everything look so fresh... and the flowers!!! I grow up having a 5 o'clock tea with scones at my grandma's house. Thank you! you did bring me beautiful memories.
A Sunday 🚗 drive through the beautiful countryside...return home with 💐 flowers and then make biscuits with jam. A perfect sunday...thank you Kevin😊
It´s good afternoom from me , 17.10h here. Will be watching later but wanted to say that i realy love your video's. Always something to learn. Have a nice sunday all.
Thank you for inviting us into your home. You make me feel special as you set the table and "we" ready for tea. The blue and white theme is relaxing. We can almost smell and taste the biscuits. Camera person does an excellent job.
Saludos desde Santa Fe, Argentina 🇦🇷
I' ve enjoyed spending tía with you, Kevin.
Delicious biscuits 🍓🍁
Your music brings me so much peace and joy
Tu a mis beaucoup de surcre...dans les fraises jacob..vous aurez pus mètre de tasses.. suffisant.de laisser.les fruits.neutres..avec son fructose naturel... merci..pour❤
Oh my how wonderful! My dream life!!!
I do declare that is such a southern thing. Always good to see Harry. Have a great week❤
Love your show Kevin, love making any kind of jam or jelly here, from dandelion to strawberry they are all good! Nice to see your "clutch your pearls" moment, so many people panic over the amount of sugar used in jam making but they never seem to realize your not eating a cup of jam with each serving, actual portion size the sugar is quite low!
I'd like to see your take on making bannock or fry bread when your serving your jam, a traditional first nations "bread" that has an incredible flavor and elevates the flavor of jams and jellies too!
Yum, Kevin!! Looks delish! ❤
I have never had an American biscuit. I need to bake some asap! Thank you for the video!
Thank you for sharing Kevin, love your videos!
You remind me of Mr. Rogers in your manner of presentation. Believe me, that’s a compliment.
Thanks for mentioning there is a no-less sugar pectin! I love jam but would rather have less sugar! I love those screw on jar lids too.
Thank you! Your accompanying music is perfect! :)
I always wanted to make homemade jelly! Thank you so much for the recipe! I will also try the biscuits. Looks fabulous!
Just lovely 😍
Great job thanks for all your lovely amazing amazing and classy videos you put out it’s what the world needs now
Sundays at Kevin's house. Having my coffee while visiting. Beautiful produce at the farm store, and fun to see Harry the greeter dog at work. I love the bouquet you created. Maybe you can use the Veronica flower in a Forth of July bouquet, kind of looks like a firework. Lovely summer bouquet. The strawberry jam looks delicious with the creme fraiche and biscuits. Orange spice tea seems like the perfect accompanying beverage. Kevin, I reached for my pearls, but forgot to put them on yet today. I have made apple jam before, with sliver chunks of apple in it. But I processed it in hot water. Fun, but a project. I will have to try making strawberry freezer jam. It's definitely strawberry season right now around here. The fresh summer strawberries taste wonderful! Blueberries start in early to mid July. I have a friend who grows blueberries and will probably go and spend part of a day picking blueberries. Actually a relaxing activity, but I end up munching on blueberries while picking them. Anyway, thank you for the video. Enjoy your Sunday and see you next time.♥️💐🌸💮🍓🍰🫖🫐🌼🐕
Your jam looks wonderful Kevin. I can't wait to try it. The biscuits look so golden and delicious. You always make the table so elegant and inviting. I look forward to your next video.
Gorgeous bouquet!
Nothing looks as lovely as fresh flowers in a home. Your berries look so nice I can almost smell them too. Nothing tastes as good as homemade jam, whether it be on biscuits, toast, sandwiches or ice cream.
O my how heavenly. Thank you.
The countryside in your area is so beautiful. You may want to try making biscuits with heavy whipping cream. When I am in a hurry for biscuits, I use only two ingredients-White Lily self-rising flour and heavy whipping cream-I just pour the heavy whipping cream into the flour a little bit at a time until I get the right consistency; then, proceed as with any other biscuit recipe. These biscuits turn out perfect every time!!! I usually use two cups of flour and about a cup of heavy whipping cream-this is a very easy amount to work with.
I have never made freezer jam. I usually make the cooked type, but the freezer type definitely looks easier. I have a recipe that I got from a Kraft Foods magazine they used to put out yrs ago for Strawberry Banana Jam. It is my absolute favorite. We have a couple of pick your own Strawberry places around here. That's generally where I get my strawberries for jam.
Thank you for the recipes. I love watching your videos. 😊
Hi Kevin… Greetings and salutations from White Rock, British Columbia 🇨🇦💕You’re honesty is so endearing…
I’m going to try out your recipes with my kids. I’m still trying to find the perfect biscuit recipe.
Thank you for sharing your biscuit and strawberry jam recipes- they look yummy! Salt Spring Island, BC

Kevin, you are such a breath of fresh air! Love your videos so much!!!
I grow some strawberries, however, I went to my local farm to buy a big enough amount to make jam. I can mine but use the same sure-jell yellow box too. I also had homemade biscuits with strawberry jam earlier today. I think your flower arrangements always look very pretty. Your videos are so calming.
Oh Kevin I am so envious of your local markets. What a great idea using coconut oil in biscuits. Since I have some I will try this. I haven't made freezer jam in 40 years and yes our grocery berries taste like cardboard. I love all of your videos. Stay well and I look forward to your next post.
Sorry, can't read all the comments. I believe the white flower is bishop's weed and the other is variegated euonymus...but can't tell on the screen. I enjoy your channel - you come across as talented yet humble and sincere.
I have wanted to make jam. Now I will try this tomorrow Absolutely love afternoon tea . Always had clotted cream in England.Harry is cute , would love to have him greet me and the floral arrangement is lovely. Fun to see Avery checking on Dad. Locally most strawberries are shipped from other states. We have a couple of farms that offer strawberries, not organic. I usually purchase at Sprouts.
I know one of the names of greenery that you bought Kevin and it’s the variegated one which is called Golden Privet. We have a couple of them growing at home. Loved your video as usual and I often do your recipes and I was especially happy to see you making Strawberry Jam as I would like to try it myself. 👍
I really enjoyed watching you make the jam and biscuits! I live in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania! Our strawberries are less sweet this year than usual because of the unusually warm and dry weather! They are always a treat, regardless! Take care my friend! ❤️
So relaxing and elegant ❤
Flowers are lovely. My brother owned a flower shop for 30 some years and when we delivered a a soft flowers we always put a tsp of bleach in the water then and after every change this helped prevent slimy leaves and stocks also kept the water clear. Thx for all your great videos 🇨🇦
I'm drooling, here, Kevin!! 😊😊😊
Absolutely lovely
Thank You for another enjoyable☺️ video
I grow good strawberries and make lots of jam. I also make lavender strawberry jam. Your flower arrangement is gorgeous as usual.
I've also seen recipes for Southern biscuits made with cream cheese. A tempting idea.
J'adore tout ce qu'il fait ❤❤
Kevin your videos give us energy and happiness
5:06 I really, really, Enjoy your videos!!!! Thank You !!!! PS,Those biscuits look Sooo Delicious!👍👍👍 and that lovely homemade ja m 😋

Your biscuits turned out perfectly Kevin. I also make freezer jam but the product I use does not require adding the pectin separately and it only calls for 1 1/2 cups of sugar to 4 cups of prepared berries. It is delicious! I also do freezer peach jam when in season. Lovely episode as always. Thank you.🙏❤️🍓🍓
Great video. I’ve never made jam but it looks so easy to do so i am going to have a bash at it. TY.
Thank you for your videos you make my day! 🌻🫖
😀 ahhhhh, just what I need 🥰
Biscuits are comfort food Yummy.
I'm so glad you made strawberry freezer jam! It is the absolute best...I made some last weekend and it always turns out perfectly!
Everything looks delicious! Yes, we get local strawberries here near Utica, NY...not far from you! The flower arrangement is so pretty. I love alstoemeria...they smell luscious!
OH!!! This started very wonderful with landscape.Harry is si cute!!! So wonderful and beautiful flowers. They are divine. NOT SCONES RECIPE. Just because you mentioned.
I just enjoy so much your videos, the music and I have to that you for sharing the utensils that you use when you cook. It is a very nice from your part. See you next video Kevin. ❤❤☺☺
It's been so long since I made jam with sugar, I'd forgotten how much sugar goes into it. I use Pamona pectin. Since I don't use sugar, the jam isn't as loose as those with added sugar. For a bit of sweetness, I add a bit of monkfruit sweetener. Mine isn't as sweet as regular jam, but very tasty and much healthier. I eat mine for breakfast daily, so I need a jam that's less of a treat food.
Hi Kevin. I’m one of your U.K. fans. As I am sure you’re aware what we call biscuits you call cookies. Your biscuits look slightly different from what we call scones and also we wouldn’t break I piece of our half scone but would add cream and jam to the whole half. I’m actually really excited to give your recipe a go so that I can see what your biscuits taste like. I may also try making some of your strawberry jam too, it is strawberry season over here too. Many thanks for another wonderful video, I really enjoy watching what you get up to each week xx
I’m sitting here watching your video and I swear I can smell strawberries! 🍓🍓🍓
Reminds me I need to make my freezer strawberry-rhubarb jam. I never use pectin anymore. It's expensive and doesn't always work, so I just cook it longer. 🥰
You came from heaven with all those delightful biscuits and frangrant orange tea!!!!!!!! 😀😀😀Missing the kittens today!!! 😺😺😺
What a wonderful video for a warm Sunday morning, with a slight breeze, here in S.E. Wisconsin!
I love the flowers and looked them up. I thought you said Blue Pluram, but finally found it under Bupleurum. A wonderful leafy long stemmed flower that works wonderfully as a flower/greenery! The white one looks like Queen Anne's lace, but the blossoms are larger? I know that they wouldn't sell Hemlock as it's highly poisonous! Maybe it's a type of Agapanthus?
The green stem looks like yellow and green Hosta leaf, but I don't think it is. Any gardeners out there with answers? I love the Hosta like greenery.
