    I love your housekeeping style-it reminds me that I don't have to do a whole room at once, I can just tackle a few items every day. Dinner looks delicious!

      It's a good tip, isn't it, to do one room or one project at a time. I started doing small projects one at a time and it added up to big accomplishments.

    I love watching you clean your beautiful house. Everything is so nice and clean. It is hard keeping your house clean when you have animals. I have 2 small dogs and 5 cats (never meant to have 5. Some were found as kittens in my garage). That vacuum looks very handy. No more lugging the vacuum up the stairs. I will have to get one. Thanks for the video Kevin

    Your video appeared at just the perfect time. I had been going through KLJ video withdrawal. I picked a bushel of peaches this morning from my peach tree, I scrubbed walls that are getting ready to be painted, I did 3 loads of laundry ( comforters and bed linens) and hung them outside in the sun, and I started dinner early and everything is ready. I layed on the couch to cool off with my cat on the top of the sofa and my Cockapoo next to me on the floor. Like a gift from heaven, you posted this video. In the air conditioning and afternoon tranquility, I lost myself in your wonderful ( as always) video today. Thank you so much 💓 Blue Ridge Mountains, Virginia.

My neighbors two-year-old Loved the zucchini bread. thank you, Kevin for giving me great ideas.

    I noticed in the last several videos you used that pretty table cloth, my favorite.
    I smile when I see it.
    Thanks.
    And I see that back window area behind the day curtain, with the plants hanging in the window.
    That's yet another intricate compartment or facet of your home Kevin.
    Yeah, I remember the humidity on the east coast in the summer time.
    Instead of expensive air conditioning units, you might think about investing in a swamp cooler.
    Much more economical, and better for you, because it doesn't rob the air of moisture.

    A lovely summer dinner menu! One of my favorite wines also. That looks like a caprese salad. Another favorite. If someone was having a bad day this menu would definitely cheer them up. Love to see Avery helping with vacuuming the staircase. Very attention to detail. Cats helping also on the stairs and polishing the breakfront buffet in the dining room. Aren't pets wonderful? They do what they can to help out around the house. They really are excellent companions. I love the purple zinnia bouquet. Beautifully polished piano.Thank you for the video. Take care and enjoy your day. See you next time.♥️🐕🐈‍⬛🐈🍓🫐🥦🍷🥗🍗💐🎹🪞🧹

    Oh! Dear and entertaining and integrity -filled Kevin, again I opened my phone to witness you preparing marinated chicken thighs etc. your marinade recipe is superb and don't you believe that fresh lemons are a MU😮ST in every kitchen !!?? In old rural Greece we always use lemon and often lemon and orange juice mixture with chopped mint squeezed over our lamb while it's cooking. And of course fresh lemon juice and black kalamata olives are a must inclusion in all salads.. Kevin your recipes are superb. Erfcharisto. X. Warm regards Néa Mastorakos in Sparta (Sparti)

    I've always wanted to make stuff like that but I just assumed it was difficult. Thanks you made it so easy.
    I look forward to more.
    By the way this is the first time I have ever responded to any you tube show. Have a great day. Luisa.
