Maybe JD can write a song based on this story/video. If he writes music like he tells stories I am in for the Record!!! Or I guess today it would have to be a CD or that new download stuff the kids do with their cellphones? I guess I just exposed my old age.🤣
I lost my temper with my ex mil (not to mention her darling boy) a few times, but even she knew occasionally when to back off. A few weeks after the wedding, she came up behind me in my own kitchen and like a drill sergeant demanded an apron bc she was going to show me 'how to cook'. As if I hadn't been cooking at least since age 8. I was already chopping veggies for the meal and my back was to her. I said, "Not while I've got this knife in my hand, you won't." She went crying to her little boy but she left me alone for sure. At least she didn't get what my best friend did to her mil. 'Lacey' grabbed that woman by the hair and threw her out of the house entirely. I was always a pretty good scrapper myself, but even I would never try Lacey's patience.
When you look back at days before cell phones. Before all the computer games and an appreciation of the little things. It does make you wonder about how things were. Compared to where we are...
I love your Granny. Your stories are so much like my Mamas. I wish I had inherited her talent. I cant tell stories but I dare say no one appeciates them more than I do. Edit: That is so much like what my Granny did when Grandpa got mad n said she always cooked too much. He nearly toppled the table. My brothers about killed themselves trying to eat it all. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 The next Sunday when all the family was coming she wasn't cookin a thing. He finally asked her wasn't she gonna cook. She told him when he told her what n how much she'd consider it. He began back tracking so fast and apologizing and told her he'd never fuss about what or how much she cooked again. And he never did.
My aunt lived just below my granny’s place down the road and we lived at the very end of the road gravel road that is. Sunday afternoon we’d all meet at my aunts place after church and I believe them tables in the front yard was at least a 1/4 of a mile long in the eyes of a youngun like me and wasn’t a inch left on top that didn’t have the best vittles I’ve ever eat settin on it. It was so wonderful to see with all most the whole bunch of people living on the road was there after church. GOD knows that was some of the best vittles ever crossed my tongue now. Every bit of the vittles home cooked after church LORD I miss them days so much. I guess I could say I’d love to go back to just one of them Sundays and eat till I popped. Maybe JESUS CHRIST AMEN 🙏 will let me experience that one more time Amen 🙏. Thanks JD brought back some great memories for me GOD BLESS y’all Amen 🙏
That was a wonderful story! I remember, when I had children, putting everyone to bed and getting back up to finish my work. The work waited until I spent time with my children and then sleep waited till my work was done.
Amen to that! He has the gift of believability. Wouldn't surprise me (at all) if all these stories happened to someone, somewhere in those mountains! It's like I'm a child again, sitting cross-legged on the porch at my elders' feet.
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller we only got about 2 inches here. But enough to get cold, wet and miserable while trying to sleigh ride. 🤣🤣. For the record I'm too old and out of shape to be doing that.. more snow in the forecast, maybe I'll be smart enough to stay inside.. or just take another dose of Motrin..
Great Job JD. You never disappoint. I've bkought a copy of your book a few days ago, very well written. My mom is like me when it comes to the history and stories of our heritage here in East Tennessee. You make it sound like I have heard it all my life. It's simple, yet pure Appalachian stories. God Bless You My Friend!
Amen to that. Thanks for another great story, JD. Sometimes a person can seem crabby when really they've just had about all they can take right then. If you can, try to silently pray for them instead of making their day even harder. Can't say I'm really good at that, but now and then I try at least a little. At the end of the day, hurt people hurt people. I'll say this about keeping Sunday as a 'sweet day of rest' though. One person's work is another person's delight. If I have something to do at a sewing machine, I go right ahead and do it. The hum of the motor and the making of whatever is balm to my soul. Yeah, I can hear my stricter ancestors yelling at me for it from the grave, but if I run the machine hard enough it drowns out their voices. :)
@@vickykent353 - Due honor given to traditions and all that, but at the end of the day it's still true what one of Beau of the Fifth Column's sons said, quote: "Tradition is just letting dead people tell you what to do."
More & more I listen to these, more I remember my Grammaw & Grampaw under the big apple tree in the corner of their front yard, telling us kids about fireballs that appeared out of nowhere, & seeing a headless man on a horse. Wish I could remember it all, but it’s been over 70 years. God bless the storytellers!
Welcome to the neighborhood Dannie. I moved from up north to the mountains of NC 25yrs ago and here's what I can tell ya. Mountain people can be kinda "clannish" and slow to accept outsiders. Some may test your patience. Always be truthful ,don't be bragadocious, and always coat your words with sweet tea. Before you know it you'll be invited to the cookout! Bonus points if you hunt or fish and know how to hoe a garden
Appalachian Storyteller, I enjoyed hearing the stories of the Appalachian people and their adventures. It transport you back in that area. Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful stories. ❤️
Your stories rekindle emotions that time seems determined to erase from the common sense of modern men. Thank you Sir for the effort you put into these stories that help me rewind the faith and family it seems we have mostly forgotten with the modern distractions that surround us today.
Pennyroyal is a medicinal herb in the mint family. It was used for centuries as an insect repellant. It is not recommended for medicinal use now as it has "pyrethrins" natural volatile oils. However, it was used for colds and just about anything else you can think of from colds to stomach aches. It is still used in flea collars, to this day. It wasal so used to induce abortions in the very early stages, however the amounts to do so can be lethal according to literature today. It was well known among women herbalists of the day. It is a low growing spreading ground cover, it has lavender colored flowers. It is very pungent smelling, and has a sharp minty smell. it grows on a square stalk, as do all plants in the mint family.
I loved this story! I do believe it is my favorite one yet. Thank you very much for bringing the past to us… they make me appreciate what we have now in a way that makes me wonder just how did they survive at all. I know that I personally wouldn’t have been able to handle the responsibility of a mother, wife and homemaker even 100 years ago. Please continue with your journey to bring the past to our present. God bless you.
I'd never make it like these amazing women did. At age 70 getting hot or super worn out makes me right out sick. Thank you JD! I live in Western North Carolina with the Appalachians all around. They are even more lovely now due to your stories planted in my memory.
Thanks for this amazing story.i know old timers had it rough but back then they was all hard working and honest people that would give you the shirt off their back to help.
Her house at 9:04 looks like my granny’s old house. They finally broke down and put the old I call it asphalt paper on the outside of it. It’s still setting on the big sandstone rock that my dad and his brothers and sisters built many years ago. I’ve slept many a night in the upstairs listening to the rain on the tin roof it washes insulated back then. Granny had feather pillows and a mattress on the old bed springs and it was so warm it didn’t matter how cold it was in that old bed the quilts my granny made and the pillow and mattress full of home picked feathers was warm as could be no matter the temp. LORD I pray when I get HOME to HEAVEN I get to go back just one time and sleep in that old bed with the same pillow on it. It was as close to HEAVEN as I could get from there at the time. LORD I miss the times I had there.
This story takes me to a simple place and time what life looks like the joy and satisfaction of the landscape sweet flowers bring to mlnd and church and choir music that fills the soul’s happiness and the chores of the day we do this a special story that I would love my daily life to look like ❤❤❤
I love this story! I was literally laughing out loud when my husband was like, what are you listening to, I said a really funny True story😊way to go J D! Thanks for the laugh on this cold snowy day in Kentucky!
I could just visualize my earlier farm family’s generation, having mornings, and Sunday mornings, such as you described. Sounded like a days worth of work, before breakfast.
Hi JD didn't get to listen to your story until this evening. Our power went out Wednesday at 1:45 and just came back on. There's still over 4000 customers without power down here in Durham NC.They said an employee damaged something at the substation and it put over 11,000 customers without power in this awful cold spell. Glad I had your story to listen to and your book to read again.😊
Times have changed. Mom told me that grandpa worked grandma into the crazy house. Grandma had to cook big meals for grandpa's hired hands and their family of seven (5 children). She had to do everything the old way; and, she cooked on a wood cook stove. No one likes to be taken for granted.
Women surely had it hard back then, none stop from the moment they woke to the moment they dropped and can you imagine how much work they had if they had a large family having to wash all their clothes by hand and then do all the shopping and cooking without all the amenities that we have in this day and age, life was tough back then 🤔 💯

I feel the same way as granny Tollet whenever I find some sassafras. That root beer smell will live with me always.

J.D. the way you tell these stories, there no way of knowing if they're based on a true story, or something You've come up with. Excellent job.
Thanks so much Rusty! Hope y’all are doing alright and your boy got to play in some snow- mine had a blast the past two days- we got 8 inches here

Thank you so much Sharon, I really believe they lived the best life
❤thank you❤ None of my grandparents told stories of their past.
Thank you Cherrie
That had to be one of the best and sweetest stories I have ever heard on this channel--or anywhere else for that matter.
thank you!
I love listening to all these stories while I work. Having just recently moved to Appalachia it is wonderful to learn the cultures and stories. ❤
glad to have you here Dannie

thanks for that breakdown of its virtues... granny didn't know any of that... yet, somehow she did.
I’m for anything organic and also if you plant mint around your property it deters ants .
What a story to warm your heart. Loved it. Thank you for sharing your gift
Thank you ❤️
Well done, as usual! I like all of your videos before they even play! Thanks again, JD.

Love to hear your stories! It takes me back to my grandma, I use to beg her for stories of her childhood. She had 18 brothers and sisters.
Thank you ma’am
I think I love Granny Tolley stories the best. She was just like my mama telling stories
She was a beautiful soul
I'd never make it like these amazing women did. At age 70 getting hot or super worn out makes me right out sick.

P.S. And this "folk" is indeed going through something you can't see. But the Lord knows and He comforts.

If anyone is thinking about getting JD'S book...I promise you won't be disappointed Or maybe giving as a gift it's totally worth it.

Caught that a Petty was a part of the choir. Wonder if he or ancestors were eventually in the racing world starting out as runners......?
maybe so!
Women surely had it hard back then, none stop from the moment they woke to the moment they dropped and can you imagine how much work they had if they had a large family having to wash all their clothes by hand and then do all the shopping and cooking without all the amenities that we have in this day and age, life was tough back then 🤔 💯
it sure was a hard life that produced tough people
@TheAppalachianStoryteller for real, a lot of people nowadays have become soft, spoilt and pampered and reluctant to put in hard work 😉
