- In this episode I am answering your questions! From where I grew up to my time as a punk-rock musician. Thank you to everyone who submitted a question -- I had great fun reading through them all!
Who’s watching 2024?
I just love him ❤
Me. He's just an extraordinarily accomplished, yet warm and humble individual.
I was until he said that the elitist, America hating, divisive former resident of the White House, Obama, along with Michael would be the two he would want to sit down with! 🤮🤮🤮
Hes just amazing and so cultured. And of course he has a very inviting nature.
I enjoy your videos ....They're calming and informative . You bring sophistication back to a world that has gone bonkers!!!You are so appreciated.
Thank you so much for sharing so much about yourself with us! Your kindness and joy for gracious living are so appreciated! 💐💜
I did the same for one of our cats. We didn't find her in our backyard like you did but bought her from a feed store. They had two cages full of kittens and most were at least mostly healthy and active but one was really tiny and was curled up as tightly as she could in a corner of the cage. The cage was outside and it had been in the 30s overnight. We bought her and found out she didn't know how to eat cat food. I heated up a mix of milk and Karo corn syrup and fed her with an eye dropper every two hours, setting an alarm between feedings. She lived for 18 years before crossing the rainbow bridge.
Isn’t it amazing what love can do 🤗
Hello Kevin, I just found you are a very good English teacher to me, I like the way you talk and speak a little bit slow as I’m a very fresh English student☺️❤
What a sweet, gentle person, just lovely❤
Kitten-rescuing pianist punk rocker AND elegant chef/gardener/host extraordinaire--what a life!
🌈❤😻❤🫖🏡
Thanks for the shout out to my mom! She was so proud of being acknowledged in your cookbook. You're an incredible pianist. I remember you were always borrowing classical music records from the public library.
Your mom had a huge influence on me! Hugs, K.
Kevin you are such an amazing person.
Thank you for sharing your talents with us.
I love how the table cloth complements the wallpaper. The pink roses are perfect for that scene.
I hope Mr. Fox agrees to film your dating story with you. I love a great love story! ❤️
Being gay is a sin against God. Read the Bible
Wow! Thoroughly enjoyed this - thank you for posting. Wondering if you might play something on the piano for us in the future?
Hi Kevin, thank you for sharing more of yourself with us 👨🍳💕🥂🙏you are amazing and so enjoyable to watch. Love all you do and appreciate you.
As a South African with British, Dutch and French roots, l appreciate your You tube channel. Thanks for giving weights in recipes. Makes my life easier.
When you drive to the store, you sometimes have the radio on, and usually a beautiful soft sounding male group is singing. I just love to hear them every time you have them on. Please let us know the name of that group. Upon hearing them, I automatically feel this “calmness “ come over me. Can’t think of any better therapy for that day.
Thank you, Kevin, for everything you’ve posted. I enjoy the cooking videos, the gardening videos and everything else. Thank you, and thank you again ! ❤️ 13:42
I am wondering about the variety of the roses on your table. They are beautiful! Really enjoyed the Q and A.
I enjoy your channel al lot. Thank you! I’m voting yes for both the Eggs in Snow and the Figgy Pudding😊
You are such a lovely man , no wonder Binky 😸made it. What can't you do? You are wonderful. ❤
So many viewers adore you KLJ! You’re like our culinary DJ.
Great episode. Thank you for taking the time to let us get to know you better.
How many acres is your property? Loved your garden tours.
Just watched after 1 year that you loaded this and must say this was very informative. That you so very much for taking the time to answer so many questions. Kevin, please don't change you are a great person and you help so many of us with your recipes, information and by just being you. I would love to one day meet and even better have a friend like you. All the best to you❤❤❤👍👍👍
Hi Kevin. I just discovered you today. I relate to you in many ways. I’ve always been interested in cooking. Unfortunately, my mother didn’t enjoy cooking, so I had no one to inspire me. She didn’t want me in the kitchen. Finally, on my 12th birthday, she told me that I could bake my birthday cake. I chose a Pillsbury pineapple cake. Forty-five years ago I was engaged to my husband, Rick (RF). His mother was a fabulous cook. I would watch her in the kitchen. She bought me a wok one Christmas and I realized that I could slay those wonderful Asian recipes. I have spent so much time in the kitchen, and I’ve enjoyed every minute. My Grandson, Vincent, has spent so much time watching me cook. Now he’s 15. One Thanksgiving he put on an apron and said, “Let’s cook”. I was thrilled. He cooked the entire dinner, with my help, and it was wonderful. Cooking is a gift that you give your loved ones everyday. I will continue watching you. Thank you for what you do. You bring class back to good preparation and entertaining.
Holy mother those roses are unbelievably beautiful. And huge.
Please do more of these. It's nice to get to know you. I am in awe of your home and gardens. The pets are great too. Cheers!
I certainly would love to have you do figgy pudding and the Œuf dans la neige! What a treat. Also, might you play some piano on one of your videos? You are so versatile in all of the things that I love, cooking, music, decor, conversation, gardens it’s truly a joy to watch your videos!
Lovely video.🌸I remember Dream Whip very well. Actually you can still find it at some grocery stores. Ha, I haven’t thought of that odd white powder for years. I love your videos and by the way, gorgeous roses.💕
Your energy level is amazing..
My mother was a cake decorator and the instructor gave them a cake pan coating to release baked goods, here’s the recipe if you would like to have it.
Equal parts flour, shortening and oil, whipped .
I use a brush to coat the pans and have great success.
I love this! I have always wished that you might do a Q&A video…Looking forward to one day hearing the story of how Mr. Fox and you met!
I enjoyed your Q&A session so much! It would be wonderful to see a video of you preparing a figgy pudding around Christmas. I absolutely adore fruit cakes and puddings during the holidays. I have made fruit cake but I have never made a figgy pudding, so that would be very interesting. Thanks so much for posting😊
Likewise, thank you for submitting the "most-challenging-recipe" question! I'll put the Figgy Pudding on my holiday video schedule!
Have great fun with gingerbread house assembly Every couple of years I used to build up my festive holiday delight by having a slow day assembling emoh run laughed at my attempt and ate the whole thing over the holidays not that it matters these days when neighbours gift muffins and surprises not to me off course but heard many people love to gift cakes for treats
Perhaps the figgy pudding could be done in a series of videos.
I recently started to follow your channel. Thank you so much! This was fun getting to know you!!
How lovely to learn a little bit about you! So many interests and talents. The cabbage casserole was wonderful, I happened to have half a cabbage I was wanting to use so it was just the ticket! 93 year old nana loved it, we ate it cold the next day on a very hot day. Greetings from London, Canada.
Oh my goodness I was pleasantly surprised to hear you were born and raised in Spokane Washington I currently live in the Nashville area I have lived all over the world but still call Spokane home. I hail from the south hill! I so enjoy your videos and look forward to many more 💜
Thankyou so very much for answering my question. I give you so much credit for working out every day and also with a trainer twice a week. I have never worked with a trainer. I have been walking every day which helps but would really benefit from some structured exercise. Thankyou for sharing your energy enhancing tips and suggestions. I super appreciate that. So great to feel connected with such a personal. thoughtful and relatable style that you have Kevin. I enjoyed hearing everyone's questions and your answers. Thankyou for this great Q & A Kevin!!!
Have a great day! 💖🌸🌿
Likewise, thank you for asking the question!
How very touching Kevin for rescueing Binky!🥰
I had two cats in my life, one lived 23 years, the other 22 years! I loved them dearly and miss them forever.
Much love to you and the community.
I thought, for one second, that you were going to say Mr Fox was sitting next to you and his face would be strategically obscured by your flower arrangement, just like Wilson on the sitcom, Home Improvement. 😄
Kevin, you are a fascinating, multifaceted man with an eye for exquisite details in home decor and dining. Thanks for sharing your life with us.
This is such fun, Kevin! Looking forward to more in a future video.
I was also going to ask how you and Mr. Fox met. So glad someone else also asked- and that it was the first question! Looking forward to seeing a video with both of you in it.🤗
Love the programs,I am 84 and have learned a great deal…like how to freeze celery! Thanks!
Love that you and my husband are in the Venn diagram of played at CBGB’s and classical pianists! There are probably more than two of you 😊
Hi Kevin, I watch every single one of your wonderful videos after a long day! You are truly amazing. I would love to meet you one day & totally understand Mr. Fantastic Mr. Fox is completely like me, very extremely private. I finally got up the nerve to even msg you! Quick request here, maybe a video about those eggs in a cloud from France? So curious here. It would be an honor if you post in the future. Love from New York
Joanie & Dennis
I loved our visit! I would like to know the variety of rose in your vase! They are so nice!
Yes! Kevin you were 80's CBGB guy! Now I know why I love you so much. Lol, those were great times.
Thank you so much for answering these questions. It’s great to know more about you 👍🏼🌷
You varied experiences and talents speak very highly of you. It was very interesting to learn more about you! Have a good week also.
You are talented & fascinating Kevin. What a beautiful life you have built! Blessings!🌼
Hello! I'm new to your wonderful channel. Your presentation is so comfortably sophisticated, yet unpretentious. (As many of them are.) And as a strange little aside, I also love how you elevate the humble and unfairly underrated cabbage! An absolutely delicious little vegetable and one of mother nature's fine gifts in my
opinion! Thanks so much.
I only found your channel during my insomnia session. You’re such a charming man. This Mr. Silver Fox you speak of, is a very lucky man!
Hi Diane - Hope I cured your insomnia!
@@kevinleejacobs1364 you’re too interesting for that. Still on two hours of sleep. Taking a sleeping pill tonight as I need the energy tomorrow for a painting I must finish. Hope you had a fabulous day! 😊
Mr. Silver Fox sounds Dashing!
Punk rock!!!! Who’da thunk it! A man of many talents…although I appreciate the classical piano most 🤗
Before I forget - yes please to 'eggs in snow' - if you are still answering questions (a year later) - I would love to know how you came to buy your house and what it was like at that time. I enjoyed the video about the garden tour and all your helpful info about striking boxwood cuttings etc., and would love to know the journey of your house. Blessings to you and Mr Fox.
Just found your channel this AM. It took me 2 minutes to subscribe!!!! Just love your presentations!!! You are truly amazing! Your home is incredibly beautiful....please, could you give us a tour? It is pure and perfect inspiration ✨️. Looking forward to the introduction of Mr. Fox. Your style is so elegant and so gracious! Lovely....simply lovely.
Thank you for subscribing, Sheila! If you click on the pic of me and select "Playlists," you'll find several tours of this house. Enjoy!
Good morning Kevin from our farm in New Hampshire. Your viewers are asking wonderful questions. I can understand getting back into an exercise routine, especially if you are a Foodie and you are! So am I. When did you and Mr. Fox purchase your home? The restoration is marvelous! That period suits you.
I am more 1920s/1930s Craftsman era. Not as elegant as your home, but solid and functional, with touches of " Sunday best". Oh I can understand your affinity for onion rings, but my all time favorite is deep fried oysters! That said I like oyster anything, if cooked.
OK Kevin, here is my question. What would you add to you kitchen? My gram had my dad paint her bead board kitchen cabinets a mint green and I really liked it. That smokey green sounds good. She made a date custard pie at Thanksgiving. The dates were strained. It was similar to a pumpkin pie. I have never seen anyone else make that pie. ~ Diane
Fascinating Q & A! Hope to see more like this…Thank you, Kevin. 😊
I am a new subscriber from Australia and I am currently looking at older videos. I knew Kevin was cool but finding out he was in punk bands and played at CBGB'S is impressive! 😅❤
A video of that French dessert sounds very interesting. I’d like to be 1st to request it. I love your videos and often try the recipes out.
Your wish is my command. I will film the French dessert recipe!
I recently discovered you on You Tube and I really enjoy your videos. Sometimes I binge watch. I have found that we have many things in common, like the red dining room etc. I love domesticity and have often thought of doing a You Tube channel too. Do you have words of wisdom? Also, I would so love to meet you. I live in NE Ohio, close to Kent State University. I am a 71 year old, retired RN, grandmother, so not hitting on you, just a devoted fan! I just think you are totally awesome. What did you do for a living prior to being a stay at home mom?
I just found your channel, and I love it already!!! Can't wait to meet Mr. Fox
I'm amazed by your interesting life! Thanks so much for sharing!
I would very much enjoy seeing you make the figgy pudding recipe you mentioned at Christmas time.
I am relatively new subscriber. Enjoyed your sharing today.
I would love to see more of your lovely home, including a closer view of the intriguing wallpaper.
Wishing you continued good health and growth of your entertaining channel. 👍
Just saw titled house tour part 2. Going there now !!!
You are so funny Kevin. I had a great chuckle to your answer to Donna's question about exercising.
Every of your recipes is wonderful, delicious and perfect. Thank you so much. I am so happy I found you, which I don’t even know how
I think it is not only the excercises, but the good food gives you such energy. :)
Kevin, I have been making Christmas puddings for many years and I never follow a recipe. I can put it together in about 15 minutes but I steam it for many hours. I always include grated carrots, currants and other dried fruits, grated apple whatever, traditionally suet and bread crumbs are used but I add butter and flour and Guinness or any liquids as needed. I just feel when it's right. I never add sugar as the dried fruits are the sweetener. So I steam, and steam until the pudding is very black. Moist not burnt. We always flame it with brandy, lights out for presentation and a sprig of holly on top.We use Bird's custard made with eggnog and sherry, whipped cream or brandy or rum butter. Just a family tradition that I keep going even though I am too full to eat dessert, I don't really enjoy sweets anyway but I love making them.
Kevin, you are such a love! If find a great deal of peace, inspiration and enjoyment in all of your videos. I enjoy your asides and have always found your recipes to be winners. And while our politics may be 180 from one another, I cannot appreciate you enough and look forward to the days to come! Tell Mr. Fox, his public is waiting!! Much love and gratitude.
Thank you so much, leighway1122!
That was so interesting ting. We never got to meet Mr. Fox. Will try to find Binky.❤
Paint the cabinets ~ you will love the color in your kitchen !!! thank you for a lovely video ~
Thank you , your answers were wonderful. I fondly remember Dream Whip!
I went over to your homepage and watched the two videos of Binky! How special. You are an amazing person to have saved her from death. God bless you. Have a wonderful week!
So glad you enjoyed the Binky videos. She's all grown up now!
Thank you so much Kevin, that was so interesting. Really appreciate you sharing. Have a wonderful day.
I do want you to show us how figgy pudding is made. I had it once years ago and thought it was amazingly good. Thank you for all you do.
I really enjoyed this glimpse into your world Kevin. It’s so good to watch a very interesting and down to earth multi talented man. I enjoy every video Kevin and appreciate all the effort put into them
Yes! Please make a video about the French dessert you mentioned.
Thank you Kevin. You are a delightful host! Will look for Binky''s video as I love kitties! Cheers
You are Amazing! Thank You Kevin!
You’re amazing Kevin. I truly enjoy watching your videos and of course learning from you. 💚
Dear Kevin, thanks for being you!you have a great following of loving friends me included, I am stuck in my chair a lot , my friends live to far away to just pop in to see them when I want to. Your interaction with your fans is just like a dear friend I am so glad I found you! I used to love cooking, and have many cookery books, now I enjoy cooking videos, I find yours so peaceful and you add that little extra special ingredient to make it special!! Well bye for now ❤ Jan
I enjoyed this little peek into your life through the Q&A! I love your cooking videos and I will have to search for your piano ones. Now I know why you have a music room!
Thank you for answering my question and being one of very few people that pronounce my last name correctly. You must have Sicilian friends 😀
My pleasure. Thank you for asking the question!
Thank you so much, Mr. Kevin! This is my favorite video that you have made thus far. I love all of them, mind you. Every, Single, One, Of, Them. But this is my favorite, because we get to hear more about you, and hopefully, our dear Mr. Fox will join you next time. All of the questions are great and you did a phenomenal job of answering them. I appreciate you so very much.
I did also have a couple of questions for you for the next time you do a Questions and Answers video, if you don't mind. Do you like sushi, and if so, would you like to do a demo video for us? Also, would you like to create a video on how to make Kouign-Amann and/or a Russian Honey Cake? Please and thank you. I humbly ask you because you are the best baker AND teacher I know of. I would very much like to make both recipes, but I know you will teach us in such a way that it is both understandable and do-able. Again, thank you so much! Please enjoy the rest of your day! Be well and be safe! 😊❤🙏
From personal experience, I have a suggestion for you. Consider painting only the lower cabinets first and living with it for a while to see if that’s enough color to take away the “ too white” value of the kitchen. If not you can always paint the upper cabinets too.
Loved the q&a session. Would like to see the pudding you said you made with alot of ingredients.
Awwww the Bi my story! I’m in tears! God love and kiss your soul! I have rescued so many cats and dogs over the years!
I'm afraid I'm late to the party, but put my vote in for a video of Figgy Pudding! Thank you for all your videos, I really enjoy them.
What an interesting person you are! I'm so glad I found your channel. I resonate with all the food you prepare (esp the vegetarian options and desserts) and love your garden tours and activities, too. I will 'go back in time' and find your Binky rescue videos. I'm wondering what instrument you played in the punk rock band! You are a Real Renaissance Man!
Hi Kevin, great You have a great You Tube and Ive learned a lot and thank you for natural & healthy recipe’s!
I just love your classic style of the olden days question and and answer, KLJ.
PLEASE make the figgy pudding! You can probably figure out how to make part of it ahead. It would be so much fun to learn!
Great idea! I love the Q&A. More please💗
I would invite Mother Ann, Founder of the Shaker Movement, to the Historic Lunch. She was an illiterate factory work from England, came to the new world and founded the Shaker Movement. Amazing person!
Relaxing tone to your voice ⭐️⭐️⭐️🫠
So mad I missed out on asking a question . Anyway, I would def be interested in a Christmas video of the pudding 😁
I’m watching it again ❤
Hello luv,I really enjoy your recipes, your very authentic, very relatable,I want to ask could you do a beef Wellington? I'm also British so I would love to see more British recipes 🇬🇧 thank you 🇬🇧 God save the king ❗
Hi has anyone ever told you .?? That you sound n look just like Mr Rodger’s ,you have a very easy n nice tone ,I actually feel like falling asleep wen you talk in a good way ❤❤❤
Loved hearing all about you Kevin. Nice that your mum got a lay in too. Watched the video about Binky. You were meant to find her I'm sure. Best wishes from the UK
I just have to share your videos with everyone . So cute!! Mr Fox sounds wonderful too!
Hi Kevin, the youtube algorithym sent me a video of yours just two days ago (sept 2022) and I've been hooked ever since. One look at your beautiful home made me an eager subscriber. Loved the home tour but have been surprised to see snippets of what looks to be a very modern kitchen. Is there a section of home tour devoted to that kitchen?
I enjoy your videos thank you for sharing. I just found your channel and have been binge-watching.
Yes, please make the oeufs a La neige!! What a beautiful memory I have of my French mother-in-law who made it to perfection. I often gave it a try, but somehow always managed to curdle a bit the crème englaise!
