Once upon a time in a land far, far away men used to wear stockings.
You are too funny 😂. So sorry about the turnips. What happened to the job at the shop?
Look at those handsome legs!! 🤣
They look warm! Men should consider it again. At least in the winter.
No coat?
They still do thank you . lol
Love the sound of the crackling fire coupled with the gentle rain while the stew simmered. It's the simple things in life. 😌
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
That's partly why I've had no tv at all six years now. I moved way out on 55 acres and enjoy the quiet
@@nelliesfarm8473 ya I haven’t watched tv in years one less bill to pay and a waste of time, I got nature videos out hiking camping, cooking over a fire and foraging and gathering spring water
Jason, fields are flooded, the turnips are gone.... and he could very easily catch pneumonia being THAT wet. And cold.
Nothing simple about that- at all.
Early death was a fact of life back then.
Hopefully they have plenty of dry wood.
I’m addicted to this channel now. I love the simplicity and cozy vignettes.
This is the most beautiful reality ‘show’ ever. Full of human kindness, love, and all the things so many lack in their lives..
Dear Youngsters, hello. Where I grew up in Northern upstate near the boarder of Canada leeks grew wild and each spring Mum and Pop took us up to the higher hills in the forest and we would pick them. My whole family had to help. Mum would store them in a old wicker basket in the basement and they would last a good long while. Mum put them in everything instead of onions and they were free. It was the Great Depression so any food found it was very helpful. We had barley. It makes such a filling soup barley does. I was going to ask you no jelly or abit of butter or honey on your toasty bread. My grandmum had a bread toaster similar to yours, it was her Great Grandmums. God Bless you youngsters 👵🙏👍 PS I have seen that foot warmer before, you do not find many of them anymore. You are lucky to have one. 👍
You sound like you have wonderful memories of your youth.
Thanks for sharing!
thank you for sharing this! What a nice memory to have.
I love how members of my generation are connecting with "old folks" here!
I love these stories. Thanks for sharing 🙂
♥️♥️♥️😊😊😊
One of the coolest channels I’ve come across. You guys basically bring bygone eras to life in high definition. Wicked 👍🏻
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
You must be from Massachusetts to say Wicked!
Hope you can salvage some turnips. Many years ago I was actually living in a half built cabin. We had all the walls in the cabin framed but only 3 were closed in. We had half an acre planted a little late in potatoes and got an early early snowfall before we had harvested the taters. My husband was gone so I went out with the neighbor woman while it was raining sleet the next morning and she and I harvested those potatoes before they froze. We were SO cold and wet when it was done. We didn't have a hearth but did have a wood burning stove set up. I'd built up a fire in it before we went out to the field and when we got back we took off our boots, set two stumps in front of that stove, opened the oven door, and just stuck our feet right in there! I know just how Ron felt as he sat in front of that fire and thawed out! Soup looked real good.
You and your neighbor are magnificent.
What a wonderful story! Thank you for sharing!
Dear Mrs Burke, so much hard work and so cold, but when your done and you get back to your cottage, it's the little things that bring us joy. As you got those very wet cloths off and snuggled up you to your fireplace you realize how fortunate you are to have the warmth of the fire and the person you love most in the world beside you! Lovely memory! 👵👍
Quieres traducirnos por fabor si son tan amables,? Al Español porque estamos viendo en habla Ispana no entiendo y me gusta su videos
I know Ron was froze out in that cold rain. Good thing he has you to keep the home fire burning and cook that delicious soup. I know it warmed him up
Justine’s motherly instincts show in this video, and I love it. Her taking care of Ron on a rainy day reminds me of my mom or grandma taking care of me when I was sick as a child.
"I'm not worried about that. All I'm worried about right now is you." This. This is relationship goals. Y'all are my favorite.
i love how most of your recipes are like scarborough fair: parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme 😅
😊😊😊😊😊
ARE YOU GOING TO SCARBOROUGH FAIR ? SWEET ROSEMARY AND THYME 💝💝🎁🎁LOVE THAT SONG !!!!
Omg I thought the same. I always sing that when she adds the herbs
I love the kindness of the couple. I know not all where like that, but still. Life when husbands and wifes really needed each other. Enjoyed the video thanks for sharing.
Even though it was raining in the video, just watching Ron warm up by the fire and you making that tasty looking soup, warmed me right up! Thanks for another winner!
Lovely episode! It's great to have someone caring for you when you need it. Every person who found his/her soulmate is such a lucky human being. Having someone on your side who cares, who will step in, who will support and who will always be there, in good and bad times. God bless you!
Your so right, great comment!
I love oatmeal. My grand ma..(who was born 1898) would "toast" her ground meal in a hot ungreased pan to bring out the natural sugars..then add cold water.
I still stir and toast my popped popcorn.
God Bless You!
Terrie ... Great TIP re: Toasting it 1st !! I never knew that - I'm going to do that next time : ) God Bless & Thank you for sharing !
I love hearing how they did things back then. I work with the elderly and I love talking with them about things like that, and hearing their stories. I cherish them. 😊
@@mamallama8842
You are such a Blessing. May God always Bless you for caring so much about our forgotten generation.
@@SweeTeaNLemon thank you. I try to soak up as much of their wisdom and knowledge that I can because, sooner or later, that whole generation will be gone. They've been through so much and have so much to teach us, especially now. God bless you 🙏
I'll have to try that with my oatmeal, sounds wonderful!
I LOVE the peacefulness with the sound of rain and the fire crackling!!! Very calming.
That soup can definitely take the chill out of the body and make one stronger. I'm sure Ron will never catch pneumonia with Justine's excellent care and cooking! Love can get you through even the toughest times.
This was a really nice video :) husband /man of the house works all the time he comes home FREEZING and his wife filled with love welcomes him to a warm special thank you for what you do meal and warm house. :) love the videos yall do :)
The foot heater🤣 love it.. footbbq..
You guys giving us the glimpse of life back then... And that soup looks like it can heal cold and sore.. Im going to make some for this rainy season.
Great soup recipe and nothing tastes better than toast made on an open fire! What a perfect winter meal. Thanks.
Another great episode in the exciting saga of Justine and Ron! Now I can't wait to find out what happens.
There's something about these videos that give me hope in humanity today. You seem to recapture what I feel is missing - genuine care and concern. I just recently found this channel and I keep coming back for the warm feeling it gives me. Thank you for helping to heal!
La sopa se ve muy rica y sustanciosa para el frio que el.pobre hombre traia en esos paises hasta los pies se le congelan a uno yo vivi en Irlanda y solo te cafe y sopas me la vivia tomando saludos a todos soy de Guatemala que Dios los bendiga
@@amandarodriguez373 Saludos a Guatamala Amanda. Soy media irlandesa. La lluvia no para en Irlanda ni en Inglaterra. Vaya bien 💌
I definitely need to make this barley soup. We got a foot of snow this week and 4 more this morning. Definitely the week for soup! Hope you and Ron are well
Oh my!! Where are you located? I'm so very jealous! I absolutely Love snow and wouldn't know what to do with a foot and more to come☺️
Love hearing the pitter patter of rain on the roof. Reminds me of my childhood days when I'd visit my grandparents who lived in a house with a tin roof.
There's a peaceful feeling watching these videos...a peak at time past..
My horn spoon split after a couple of months of being in hot liquids. So please be careful when using them ❤️. I wouldn’t recommend doing it all the time like I did. And all I did was boil water for tea and used it to stir my sugar and milk in the tea.
That soup 🍲 😋 looks amazing! Justine is sooo sweet to Ron. Ron is a wonderful provider n you two make a great team! Love you both n God bless you both always 💛 🙏
I'm so glad I found this channel. I really can't stop watching.
Wow, I can almost smell that rye bread toasting! With a bowl of leek soup and rye toast next to a good fire, the weather wouldn’t seem nearly as bad.
It looks so warm and dry and cozy there. So peacful.
That foot warmer reminds me of those bed pans that go between the mattresses, I'd be afraid of grilling my feet, and I bet that soup smells so good, my favorite is vegetable beef and barley 😋
We had the snow yesterday and the freezing rain starts tonight. Ron needs to invent an umbrella. Then you could sell them to make the rent. Freezing rain chills to the bones. Hot soup is such a comfort when is like that.
Coming in from the cold there is nothing better than warm toast and a hearty stew.
I can't stop binge watching this newfound channel. I love how you guys say thank you to each other.
I just love your channel. No music, just crackling fire and rain on the roof
Hearty, heart warming and cosy.
Loved this segment for it's realism. Well done 👍. I hope to try the barley soup...it looks delicious!
it was real i was freezing to death and 100%soaked :)
I love your videos......especially when you cook in your cabin fireplace. You guys are adorable.
The soup sounds delicious. I have never cooked with barley before, so I am excited to try this. Watching you cook over the fire is so interesting. You make it look so easy, But I know that it takes experience to know how to place the coals and position the pots, etc. Ron looks warm and comfy sitting by the fire.
Soup looks yummy!! So does the sausage! Nicely done! Thanks for the new video! Keep em coming! Stay warm guys!!
The soup looks delicious and so does the bread - love bread!!
Oh no! How weather can affect ones outcome, was even more true back in those days. Good luck on getting an appeal for your rent, I hope the landlord can work something out with you. That soup looked delicious and I had a good giggle at Ron's blue stockings.
You too are just the cutest ever, love watching how you interact with each other !
mmm that soup was so good!! :)
Its storming today in Canada. Heavy snow and winds. Seeing this soup made me warm inside. I hope you can come up with the remaining rent!
Much appreciated video again. Thank you both of you.
Brings tears to the eyes to have to live such a meager existence as this. Prehistoric living.
Enjoying this and the Patriot channels so much. Love all of the hearth cooking. Y'all are so great at it and make it look so easy even though it is definitely not. Keep up the great episodes!!!!
You always have great videos. I like learning about the foot warmer & The toaster. The soup recipe looked very good.
Oh I just sit on my hands waiting for a new video... Love love love you guys..
I love this video. I have a lot of venison burger and will try that with potatoes and onions and all your wonderful spices. I would love to see you making some rye bread. I was thinking of getting a bread machine but after watching your videos I’m just gonna go with homemade :-) love you guys.
Soup is comfort food for this time of year, I had potato soup today for lunch, so good ❤❤❤
I know what I am making for dinner! Thanks, Justine! The both of you, and both of your channels are amazing.
What is your other channel???!!!! I don’t know if I know of it !!!
@@michaelhudecek2778 I assume you are inquiring about Ron and Justine’s channels; though I have channels on UA-cam too. Ron’s other channel is Frontier Patriot. ua-cam.com/channels/0t3mcaVPodGgETsPRlLiHQ.html
I’ve read about foot warmers before (maybe in the Little House books?) but I don’t think I’ve seen one until now. Looks like it was great little contraption that got the job done.
Going back and watching some of the older ones I missed before I found you two, love watching.
Aaawww l love this show and you two…. I can’t say enough how it’s like being back in time. I really appreciate all the work y’all put into this…P.S. is their a trading post in you town where Ron could take some of his handcrafted wood items to sell? Nothing like a cliff hanger.
Ooooh, hint of an ongoing story coming? I had to think a moment when I saw 'his wife' vs 'a wife'. The meal looked fantastic, and poor Ron looked soak through, bet the fire felt fantastic after that hike. You guys have such a knack for this it really seems a window back in time!
Hey, you think its time for Parson John to hitch you two up legal? Many folks out in the bush had to wait for the traveling Preacher to get in their area to get married. 😁
The soup looks delicious and very warming😊
I swear...these are the most educational videos on UA-cam! I have learned so much about cooking watching what was in simpler times.
I love your reenactments they are realistic Informative and entertaining.
I have the foot warmer ! Mine opens from front with a pan to put hot coals !! It may come in handy one day !!
Great video! Love these and the responses it stimulates from that had these events in our lives. Thank you so much!
Having homesteaded in the Alaska bush, I completely get this. Nothing worse than being COLD and WET. Love the foot warmer.
We just got our first decent snowfall today. You've inspired me to make soup! Great video, as always. 😊
we really are at the mercy of the weather, even if we don't do the actual farming . It has a trickle effect that is felt by everyone. that rain sounds loud in the cabin, but sure feels cozy, and well soup is comfort food. :)
I love your videos!!
I can watch them over and over because they are so relaxing!
I just wanted to let you guys know that I have learned so much from you guys. I have been doing so much research for the last couple of years on mine and my hubby's ancestry and you guys have giving me a much better understanding of who my family was and where they came from. Thank you for all your hard work.
Love it! Can’t wait for the next episode
They are so loving and working hard on that era !! I like it 🙏
I love the education woven in with the theatrical! Always waiting for the next video 🤩
These are the best videos especially about the medicine for the poor one!!!
The rain on the roof is so soothing though
Hi, Ron & Justine...
I do hope your keeping well. Thanks for another episode...
During a night of insomnia, your videos are therapeutic
I have watched this three times, it so cozy and comforting, the rain hitting the cabin, Ron getting slowly warmed and feeling so much better and Justine making that lovely soup, I know it must have smelled wonderful cooking, all added to the overall warmth and "sugginess", really gives you a good feeling.....thank you
I miss the old tin roof when it rains, the sound is so soothing and comforting.
Love your videos. Will we ever get to see the second room?love how you decorate and make use of everything.
Look so yummy. This will be good for cold raining season. Thank you for the recipe i will try it. : )
I am 66 years old now, and after visiting historical museum houses...I have often wondered "How in the World" did people cook in an open fireplace. Thanks to watching Justine and Ron ...I see and understand now. And I'm from East Tennessee! I've only known Electic and Gas Stoves, and ovens. We weren't rich either...just middle class, when I was growing up.
Yes, Justine showing how she rakes the coals out and uses trivets has made me understand they didn't only cook in the fireplace, yet use the hearth like a stove top.
Yes, and do not forget…..every meal cooked is using wood that Ron cuts and brings in….one of his sidelines I a wood cutter, supplying heating and cooking wood to folks in St. Geniveve! So he contributes too!😃
I love this video it’s one of my favorites. It’s raining outside the crackling fire soup cooking over the fire so homey. They’re safe and warm. Ron needs something one his legs they look cold. Lol
I absolutely love the foot warmer, or the device they're using as a foot warmer.
Soup: the cold weather cure-all! I know you will find a way out of your turnip troubles together. Look forward to the next video!
How cozy!! Rain on the roof, a warm toasty fire and some yummy soup!!
you guys are just so adorable I wish I could visit you guys and cabin it’s so beautifully decorated and amazing youtube channel
One of the things I’ve learned from your videos is cooking without recipes, just using the concepts and tasting while I go. That soup looks so good. I have no leeks but I have onions, so I’m making me an potato onion barley soup on a cold day, thanks! 🥰💕❤️👍
@Early American I just made this today and it turned out great! I used some tomatoes that I ripened on my window sill and the potatoes, celery and onions were harvested from my garden. I’m saving this receipt for posterity and calling it Early American Harvest Barley Soup. Too bad I didn’t have a warm fire to cook it near on a cold day like today. The stove wasn’t nearly as warming as your hearth looked. I didn’t have any meat on hand just a strip of leftover bacon, but chopped that up and added it to the pot. I love being able to make a meal using a handful of this or that, a sprig of this a pinch of that. That’s how my mom said my grandmother cooked. I never knew my grandmother she died in childbirth during the depression. Love seeing you and Ron interpreting early American life on the frontier.
Another great video! I worked outdoors quite a bit when younger and it was great to come in, strip off my wet clothes, and stand next to our wood heater in my undies to warm up! Ha ha. When a child, my home was heated with gas floor furnaces, and I often remember my mother coming in during the winter and standing over the floor furnace grate, so her skirt would billow out with warm air! We boys would lay on the floor as close to the grate as possible and listen to our family radio!
You guys can go live where ever when ever you want this is the art of training.
Watching this makes m want to go back to this time period.
The soup looks yummy on a cold rainy day in front of the fire.
So glad you both are doing well. Something will come up,things will be o.k. God will bless.🙏
Mistress Justine might want to plant some herbs in the spring. As she has knowledge about cooking and herbal remedies she might be able to make some money, along with the candle making she does. I know that Master Ron makes money cutting wood and wood working, so the two of you might be able to have a comfortable living between the goods and services you provide others, and the hunting, foraging and gardening.
Justine is so knowledgeable about herbs and teas. They're people that need the healing that comes from such plants.
That is a beautiful pot you cooked the soup in. Is it from Townsend's? I covet your cookware!!! Great video! Ron is lucky to have you taking care of him! Venison sausage looks good too. Did you make it?
Ron showing off his legs!!! LOL
Thanks for all you do!
Have to make this barley soup very cold here on Long Island east end 8 inches of snow last night and shoveling driveway and back deck works up a cold appetite! Staying cold tonight 10 °I am guessing average people made their own coats back in 1820? Gloves/mittens and hats crocheted or knitted? Toast and hot soup sure looks good 😋
This has got to be the best video this far. Love the acting!
Ya’ll rock. Love the new vids.👍🏻
This video deserves more than 100k view, amazing video. Thanks
Wow , that's so loveing taking care of you love when that would happen, I teared up, we are new to your channel, don't stop this.
Another excellent episode, thank you very much for posting it. I love the accoutrements of your cabin, especially the rabbit pitcher (which didn't show up in today's episode), and I think I have the same Wilton pewterware; I believe that's the Queen Anne pattern.
I am fascinated by your ironware in particular, some of which I had never seen, such as the footwarmer Ron used. Is all of that fairly typical for a family of this class and location, or would it indicate a better-than-average assortment?
YOU DO SUCH A GREAT JOB COOKING ON THE HOT COALS ....LOOKS VERY YUMMY ALSO ♥️
I absolutely love the earlier videos that depict what could be true circumstances
