I could watch Kevin set a table all day long... The results are always spectacular.
I agree with you!
Kevin is smooth, attainable elegance … not stiff or pretentious. As Goldilocks said …. “just right”!

Kevin, always a pleasure to see your latest upload. You make all us viewers feel like we are truly welcome guests into your home and activities. Thank you for the impeccable hospitality!!
And you ARE a guest in my home!
Susan, Are you in FW?
When my days are tough, this is where I come. Thank you Kevin. A delight, as ever.
Who needs a mental health professional when you can get the calming voice of KLJ? He’s the whole package! ❤
I am convinced here is NOTHING you can,t do! You are the elegant friend that everybody wants! Great video Kevin! Thank You❤
I'm always uplifted by your videos, but was really surprised this evening when my partner called out from the kitchen: "Is that Kevin? Hold on. I'll be there in a moment."
Another fan for you!❤
A wonderful episode! Thank you Kevin for bringing “peace” to your preparations, encourages me to stay calm in the kitchen, and love these simple recipes that can be made ahead of time!
Not everybody can have such a reception etiquette love it
Another convivial and beautiful table, a quick ride to The Berry farm and wonderful host-friendly summer dinner ❤ thank you Kevin.
And we thought that everything about sophistication was present ...voila, along came Kevin with a gorgeous tablecloth in a hanger!!!! I adore watching your videos. Beautiful blue shirt💙
I just love the make ahead meals.
I think this, your calming spirit and your elegance sets you worlds apart from all the other UA-cam chefs.
You’re truly a blessing.
Hope you’re enjoying your summer.
Simply Sublime !
Kevin dear, although all things Kevin are elegant, it is the warmth and simplicity of your preps and presentation that lend serenity to the process. I imagine your doing it while "floating" just above the
floor... so smooth and gracious. It is a blessing to sit at your beautifully appointed table and talk
about all things enriching. Heritage Hall
I love the drive to the berry farm. I live in Mexico and we do not have vistas like this. We are all mountains and I love the serenity of this drive. And I love the produce you buy. We are limited here. Your music is perfect for what you are showing. And the recipes! I come here when I want to calm down. Thank you, Kevin!
I think tapioca is way underused in cooking these days. So delicious. And great in pies, to absorb juices. It's a delicious pudding! Love your innovative meals, with ease of prep in mind, Kevin! 😘
KEVIN THANK YOU! I FEEL SO PEACEFUL watching your videos❤
Kevin, thank you for showing us every detail of this summer dinner party, so you make possible for us to take notes from your recipes, the floral arrangement, and absorb some of tour good taste and manners. Thank you Kevin❤

when i need a pick me up (after having been fighting with my doctoral thesis all morning) i watch your videos Kevin and they always bring me joy!!! This time i almost teared up when you put in the white Miso paste as it is one of the things i like to use in cooking frequently! You're a wholesome existence!! Thank you for sharing bits of your life and recipes with us!!! Greetings from a stressed european student that learns very much from you!

It is always so lovely to spend time with you, Mr. Kevin. I enjoy every minute of your videos. I wish I had more time these days to get caught up, but I do what I can. The new school year is always super busy. Thank you for all that you do! 😊💖🙏
Simple yet so elegant ! Thank you for sharing Kevin!
Thanks for another great video. I always get in a good mood, when I see your beautiful flower arrangements and beautiful table settings. Thaks 🙂
Your table setting is elegant. I love your fine china. The meal looks fantastic. You always prepare your dinner parties to perfection.
Your arrangements are always beautiful but I thought you outdid yourself with this one! Gorgeous!
Thanks for another pleasant video. I look forward to them!
I always enjoy the format of your vlogs…trip to the berry farm and to get flowers for your table. Your menus are always simple enough that you can be a guest at your own party. Thank you Kevin.🙏❤️💐
I can't wait to try that soup. A use for all my basil from my balcony garden. Thank you as always, you Paradise Maker, you!
Dear Kevin, it's hard to express the amount of beauty, elegance and refined taste that is in everything you do. Also the amount of LOVE you put in everything. It's such a privilege and honour watching your videos. God bless💜

Thank you, Kevin, for yet another wonderful video. It actually feels like l'm standing right there inside your kitchen while you are busy preparing the most wonderful dishes. The soup looks beautiful in those soup bowls. l just want to run to my kitchen and try out today's recipes. Lol.
I can't wait to taste that soup.
It looks SO delicious.
Gorgeous display of the meal. Thank you for sharing these elegant ideas and recipes. Happy Sunday and a wonderful week to you!
I LOVE when you use this china, it is stunning! The soup I will try this weekend, thank you for being you Kevin!
I look forward to seeing your beautiful floral arrangements, firstly. They are always so pretty, and the fact that you use things from your own garden is an added bonus. The soup looks so amazing…I will definitely be making! Salmon is my favorite entree for sure. It all makes for a perfect dinner party! I even got to see sweet Avery at the end…I always look for him. Thank you so much for your channel💓
Buna Kevin, aia aștept sa vina Duminica sa vad cu ce ma răsfățați. Un om extraordinar si o simplitate fara limite❤.
Dumnezeu sa te binecuvânteze. XOXO Roxandra W.
Looks like a wonderful meal. Enjoyed watching this after a very stressful week. It was very comforting in a time when despair hit my family. Thank you for your heartwarming videos Kevin.
So love your easy dinners with a variety that's inexpensive! Can't wait to see what comes next! Thank You!
A beautiful tutorial on simple elegance. Always a refreshing timeout in my day💕 Thank you, Kevin!
Another wonderful dinner party, thank you Kevin. I love the table setting and the beautiful flower arrangement you made. See you soon 🌼
I might make this my first summer dinner party on the veranda in the Southern Hemisphere! Loved everything! ❤
Thank you Kevin! I enjoy every single show and I make.you’re so elegant, I loved your garden your house is magnificent!I love everything about you! The new generation should fallow you!! I’m from Italy im in USA 60 years!
The meal looks very appetizing!! Love watching your videos. ❤ Take care !!!
Oh my goodness I’d love a bowl of that glorious soup! I’m going to make some this week ! Your recipes are easy and so good.. your table looks fab . I think Avery would have loved some of that fish as well ! ❤😄🇬🇧🇬🇧🙏
Did you ever watch the film Babette's Feast? Your videos remind me a bit of the spirit depicted in that film. It's so important - the propriety, generosity, and kindness in gracious living.
Great menu. Can’t wait to make this!!! Thank you! Love your channel!
I love your videos, and enjoy your "do ahead" approach to entertaining. I appreciate all the tips you include.
Love the menu, I like the way you cook and keep in the freezer for other day, very good and love the way you put your tables. Thank you for teaching us so many things old, modern and new
OK now I'm hungry! Everything looks so delicious -- I will try these recipes for sure. Thank you, Kevin -- wonderful video! 💗
Very nice Kevin. The table scape was artfully coordinated. I love the attention to detail that you put into your dinners. Salmon is a favorite of mine. I have always been a bit intimidated by miso, but will try the white miso in that delicious zucchini soup. ~ Diane
ДЯКУЄМО❤❤❤🎉
Gorgeous arrangement as usual, Kevin!! I’m definitely going to try the zucchini soup! I have tons of basil in my garden.
A Salmon and veggies sheet is one of my go too in the Summer! Full of protein and good stuff! It doesn't weigh you down when you eat it. I really liked your floral arrangement , it gave off a nice late Summer vibe 😊😊
Kevin, what a beautiful dinner party meal. I so like that you teach us how to split it up over 2 days. At my age, with my health situation, I have confidence I can do this as well!
Blessings,
Allison 🌼
Every component of your dinner looked delicious. The zucchini soup is definitely a must try!
Toujours en harmonie merveilleux ❤❤ j'aime ce paradis
Lovely, my friend, is most definitely an understatement!!!!! I own a very similar, if not identical, candelabra pair. I admire this table setting SO MUCH!!!!!
great video, and thanks for the recipes Kevin.
I am going to have the exact same menu at a dinner party I'm having in a couple of weeks! Yum! Thanks for the glorious ideas, Kevin.
Beautiful arrangement Kevin. The menu is wonderful as well.
You're delightful. Thank you for showing us how to bring high-class elegance to our everyday lives! Also, thank you for saying this could even be for a dinner party for one (with lots of leftovers)! You're a joy.
Hello Mr Kevin, this combination of recipes is one of my favorites. I could taste the flavors watching your video today. Thank you very much ❤
I was delighted to see a tapioca pudding recipe. My three generation family favourite, fruit tapioca, is a rather more calorific version, served in a sizeable cut glass bowl. The seed tapioca (smaller than the larger "frogspawn" variety - much despised here in the UK in it's manifestation in mid 20th century
school dinners), is first cooked together with the milk (1.5pts), thinly pared lemon rind and sugar, then removed from the heat when the yolks of two eggs are beaten in, together with a
knob of butter. The egg whites are then whipped to stiff peaks and folded into the mixture creating a souffle like texture
This is piled onto colourful stewed fruit already in the glass bowl; any kind of red/purple plums, apricots or even rhubarb paired with raspberries are best.
The courgette (zucchini)soup sounds really alluring. Unlike the rest of Europe the UK after a lovely, very dry period early on is having a miserably wet, cold and windy summer but it means that courgettes are in abundance and cheap, so that is definitely on the menu.
I do admire the way that you make a real ceremony of your meals, real love feasts, an attitude
toward food which had been hard won in contrast to the vast array
of, in many cases today, over processed foodstuffs available today. The civilising effect of sitting round a table, enjoying the food and engaging in proper conversation, on children is vital.
A beautiful job of flower arranging. Thank you for giving us the strength to try to do flower arranging.
Oh my you do it up so beautifully. Your guests are in for a treat. I will try the salmon .
You inspire me, Kevin. Thank you for your videos! ♡
I cannot wait to try the soup! I often use cashews to make sauces creamy without dairy, but haven't tried it with soup. Thanks for the ideas and another lovely video. 💕
Our dinner party last night was superb! Lots of leftovers for. Nice Sunday lunch!
I love me some KLJ lifestyle videos!
Well Kevin, aren't you fun and informative....Thanks for your inspiring dinner recipes and tablescape...I also love your suggested timing of the meal. Thanks from Hilton Head Island.
LOVE those coasters!!!! ❤❤❤
I always look forward to your latest. I have a notebook of your recipes. All are delicious. Please keep them coming. You are the best
Love your garden and decorating and shopping videos. Love them all.
Thank you darling ❤❤❤ you made my week my month your kindness is palpable
Oh Kevin , you are truly teaching us the art of slowing down, connecting with others sans phones and screens , in other words: the art of living..😉❤️
You had me at salmon and tapioca.
I LOVE your amazing, informative videos! Such class and elegance, with beautiful presentation for your guests.
Kevin, you are amazing, love your wonderful recipes!
Loved your choice of the Brandenburg Concerto.
You make things very special!!!
Wow tapioca was always my horror at ‘school dinners’ way back in history, definitely going revisit it with this recipe sending love 🇬🇧
Tapioca pudding scared me when it was offered for school lunch. Now I love it!
What a gracious meal💕
I love this Kevin! Those Royal Albert plates are gorgeous. TFS.
Just fabulous!
Thoroughly enjoyable and cannot wait to try the soup recipe xx
Good on you Kevin in your choice of meals. They appear to complement each other. In addition, they are quite easy to make and assemble. It's on my next dinner party menu. By the way, the orange capsicum looked brilliant.
I love everything about this menu. The chilled soup looks very interesting. I enjoy chilled soups and will definitely make a small batch of it soon. Nice the soup and salmon both go well with your wine choice. Nice and straight forward to have just the one wine. Best wishes from Willamette Valley Oregon.
I will definitely make this dinner and the soup looks fabulous and even better is the amazing flower arrangement …..you are an artist!
Your flower arrangements are stunning. Thanks for sharing your talents with us. All the Best!
Hello Kevin, it was my third recipe I tried from your videos (Victoria cake and meat pie). But this one with the salmon in Asian marinade baked with simple vegetables is superb I decided to comment for the first time. I enjoy your videos-your entertainment style, recipes, beautiful house and garden:) Thank you😊 Mari
Dear Kevin, your Videos are so beautiful and relaxing with dreamlike music. The flower arrangements and table settings 💖 so lovely . Greetings from north -west Germany.
Good morning Kevin.
Chefs kiss... the bread basket WOW WOW WOW beautiful
Silver basket was a thrift-store find!
We made this and enjoyed it for supper. It is the best salmon I have ever eaten!! Yum
I'm so glad!
