This channel is like watching a Victoria Magazine come to life, such loveliness. ❤
Absolutely yes! I would pour over every page of that magazine and Kevin’s channel fulfills that romantic Victorian in me!❤Thanks Kevin!
Exactly! Great observation!
I have subscribed to Victoria magazine since 1986!! I know exactly what you mean!
Oh, that’s perfectly said!! 😄
Not only am I a follower for absolutely everything you show us, I'm devoted to you because of your correct grammar and pronunciation. In today's world, it's music to my ears.
I agree with you. I’m tired of hearing people talking as fast as a machine gun, using slang, and lots of people using four letter words in every other sentence. I went out for lunch today with my husband and the two middle aged ladies on the next table with loud voices were using four letter words all the time.
Hi Kevin.It's Raquel.I want to thank you for Saving Avery from the shelter 8 Year's ago from going to Die you are her Hero and mine for doing that for your Avery.Love Raquel.❤
Kevin I loved the way you set a place for me to have tea and cake with you in your videos...I have never been treated so nice in all my life. Thank you 😊
My sentiments exactly!
It's like you read my mind.
SAME HERE 😭
Our ailing world needs more like you. You are a calming, lovely soul with a beautiful home, sweet pets and you work magic in the kitchen. Thank you for sharing! Love you!
Kevin you bring so much joy to the world! The boxwood garden is a little glimpse of heaven :-)
Lieber Kevin, so ein schönes Video. Du hast kein Vorstellung, was Deine Videos bewirken. Jeder von uns hat sein Päckchen zu tragen. Ich beschäftige mich mit vielen Themen aus der Wissenschaft der Psychologie, Pädagogik, Anthropologie, Religion, etc. Aber Deine Videos sind was Besonderes und tun einfach nur gut. Sie entschleunigen, motivieren, bringen Sonne ins Leben und sind einfach nur toll. Herzlichen Dank und weiterhin alles Gute.
You look so proud strolling casually through your grounds with your coffee cup.
The hedge trimming looks magnificent...and knowing you grew that hedge from small rooted transplants makes it all extremely amazing from start to finish 😊
Kevin, I just discovered your channel a couple months ago, and I can’t get enough. When I am needing a breath of fresh air, I always come back to your channel. I appreciate everything that you provide to us. Very calming and informative. Thanks so much!
Hi Kevin, I am watching from Tasmania, Australia. Love, love, love each episode you present. Thank you so much for a relaxing time with you in you beautiful home. You share so much in such a calm, and loving and caring way. Such a tonic for me since my daughter passed away from cancer 2yrs ago. Thank you Kevin your kindness knows no bounds. x Kathy.
Kevin, your videos are always peaceful and elegant. The music while at the garden store was perfect, loved the beautiful dog. Avery, Binky and Goldie are so lovely. Trimming the boxwood was a huge task for the two gentlemen. They did a fabulous job. I will try the cake, what a great combination. The outside world is always creating chaos. Your world makes a retreat to a gentler, kinder world possible. ❤you Kevin.😊
Always such a pleasure!
Your videos are very calming for me. The music, your sweet voice and the visuals. Calms down my nervous system so thank you so much.
When you held up the sprig of Boxwood, I tried to imagine all that you had done with your boxwood cuttings to make the magnificent formal boxwood gardens over 18 years. Wow. There is no one like you Kevin. There really isn’t.
Kevin thank you for the invite to your home. Also for your generosity in sharing your experiences.❤
Kevin, I love your green enamel pot! That is a most pleasing shade of green. Your gardens look fabulous. Thank you for sharing your time with us! You cake looks much better than the one in the cookbook photo. I especially enjoy our trips with you to the garden market and the farm store! Another great video. Thank you.
I have the same one, except it is larger !
Aw, Avery is being such a good girl during teatime. 🥰
I fell asleep watching the video last night, as is so relaxing and peaceful to me sometimes. This morning I'm enjoying my coffee with Kevin's world to start my day. I'm behind on my memorial day gardening, but watching your show gives me hope and encouragement to get going. The boxwood looks perfectly beautiful, all ready for the summer season. That Bundt cake looks delicious! Extra special with the rubarb compote. Fun to see the cats lounging on the oriental/Persian rug, like they own the place. So cute! Avery having tea and cake with you, looking on with hopeful eyes. Adorable pup! I like that you have found those special tomatoes. I have never seen them as plants for sale, but are good for making sauce and soups I think. Thank you for the video. Take care and have a great weekend. See you in the next video.♥️🌿🍅🍰🫖🐕🐈⬛🐈
I just loved this video. My husband and I just got done planting flowers and herbs around our house. When I was young I planted twice as much all on one day. Now it takes mostly my husband a week to get things planted. I must say it was worth the effort.
As a kid, we chewed raw rhubarb til juice was extracted. Fresh from the garden plant!
An American with Englishliciousness!
If you are going to indulge in cake, this is the cake to indulge in! Could almost taste it. Gorgeous, as are the hedges. Beautifully trimmed.
Kevin, you are awesome! 😊🪁
There"s so many good things about this video, that I've lost count!
Towards the end, I saw my favorite table cloth already set up on the tea time room table! Thanks. 🤓
It's very comforting and lovely pleasant in your living room/tea room.
Your garden, and over all landscape, is looking better and better.
I didn't like the sight of the winter cold snow covered garden months back.
***** Thanks for showing us how to make Rubarb Compote.
Thanks again for giving it your all, and giving us your best!! We ❤ You!
Kevin, you are our little babydoll! Just so sweet and precious! Love your channel! ❤️❤️💕💕
I love rhubarb! It's difficult to get where I live so I'll just live vicariously through this video.
It is super easy to grow and a great producer!! I live in North Carolina and it does great year round!!
I've never seen Rhubarb for sale in my country
Another reason to grow it!! I grow it in 5 gallon buckets!!
I could try in winter but don't think Rhubarb would like Mediterranean summers 🥵
Same here in Arizona. Freshly picked is impossible to find.
A man who is very giving at heart and a wise soul
That garden looks amazing! So does everything else. My greetings to Goldie and Binky and Avery :)
doggie eyeing cake at inter...🥰
Your garden is giving me Versailles and Fontainebleau vibes! Two of my favorite places I visited in France. I bet you’ve been there as well! Great inspiration! Your boxwoods are so healthy and hearty. I’m thinking the gardeners enjoyed their day beautifying your hedges.
I love it when you get your hedges trimmed...gorgeous!loved seeing the fur babies...even the one at the nursery 😊❤
In my culture, what you bring to us is "good medicine". I so love watching you & am grateful you share the recipes - Here's to good living - cheers!
The boxwood hedges look so good and what a precise job they did! The cake looks extra good, and it looks like Avery wants a piece!😂😂😂
So grateful for this video, after receiving sad news. Thank Kevin for lifting my spirits.❤
Good morning Kevin, enjoyable as always! Thank you for a nice srart to my day.🌺
Thank you for inviting us to Another one of your enjoyable treat of a video! Always a pleasure to watch! 😄🌸❤️
Love the boxwood haircut! My mom had a tiny garden and shaped her own boxwoods. They are delightful bushes.
I could imagine a delicious twist to the cake recipe would be to add lemon extract and lemon zest in place of the almond extract. Later this summer when peaches are ripe, use the vanilla and almond extract in the cake and top it with fresh peach slices or a peach compote. Delicious!
Thanks Kevin again for an awesome video. We're having thunderstorms today. It was nice to see sunshine! 😊
Thank you Kevin. The garden looks very beautiful. I love to see as you take care of the garden. The cake looks really provocative. I will do it for this Memorial Day weekend.
Until the next video. Big hug and blessings. Bye my virtual good friend.
I have a cat. I read in Daniil Andreev’s book “The Rose of the World” that animals that live with a person acquire a soul and go with him to a better world. read this book.
Another lovely episode, Kevin. Your boxwood garden looks so beautiful after the trimming. And that cake! Oh, my! It looks yummy. Thanks again for sharing your life. ❤️
Thank you Kevin, thanks to you my girlfriend made me the best cake I have ever tasted. We are watching you from Switzerland and I must tell you that your moments are a haven of tranquility, zen and joy.
Dear Kevin, your channel is my favorite one on UA-cam, you are the Best, and like I said before, I have learned so much from you since I’m not a baker!!!
From Palm City Florida.
So glad you like the cookbooks and you're using them. That cake looks delicious.
That boxwood garden is just awesome. You are a master!
My favorite pound cake is a lemon sour cream that calls for a pound of butter, 8 ounces of sour cream, and 8 eggs in the recipe. Thank the Stars for that Kitchenaid Artisan. It fills my fancy Nordic Ware pan nearly to the rim. I confess to licking the spatula.
The hedge is gorgeous!
Good morning from Tucson, AZ - enjoying my English Breakfast tea while I watch.
I remember when you had your boxwoods shaped last year and you showed a picture of how you first planted those little seedlings and then designed and planted all of those little tiny boxwood plants. You can’t imagine how many times I have thought of you doing that feeling so impressed at the immense job and the beauty of it at the end. You are so inspiring all the time. I am so impressed.
A breath of fresh air . So calming to watch .
He’s like a perfect little brother to me! I sure wish we were neighbors!
The cake looks delicious! Always wonderful to see a video from you. Blessings from Ireland. ❤✨️🇮🇪
My life is complete because of this channel!
Perfect timing ! Just had my morning coffee with you. Unfortunately with out the cheese cake😢❤ I totally enjoy your company in the morning. Along with the thunderstorms we are having it makes for a great start to my day..😊
❤I allways enjoy the variety of your topics.... This gardening/tea-time -one is sooooo calming and a joy for our stressed souls. THANK YOU
I don't know if it's me or my ovens over the years, bit I find that if I take a cake out when crumb is attached to a wooden skewer, it is perfect. Not raw batter, and not clean, but in between...just crumb attached. Moistest cake ever! I love rhubarb. Will try your compote!
Hi Kevin, thank you for another wonderful video. Seeing you beautiful chopping block reminds me that I received mine from Dan Fennell a few weeks back. It is just gorgeous, and I love it. I recommend his work. It is evidently crafted from integrity and love for the art. I will forward a picture of it when I can. It's great to see Binkie, Goldie and Avery too! Love to you all! ❤
Good morning friend, a wonderful start to my day❤
Your video brought me joy and relaxation, Kevin - AGAIN! Loved all the things "we" did this week. Thank you.
I love your videos. Beautiful home! I look forward to see what you’re cooking. The finer things of life! I’m glad you exercise. Otherwise eating that cake you may put on the pounds! Your doggie wants some of the cake!
Your videos are always so calming...the content is lovely and the presentation, so soothing.
Hi Kevin, thank you for a great video once again. Your boxwood garden is lovely for a stroll, I’ve often thought of planning a boxwood garden. Yours is an inspiration. I’m from California, I will try planting those bell peppers. Your cake looks so beautiful and delicious. Can’t wait to try that recipe along with the rhubarb sauce. I enjoy your company at tea ☕️ time. 😊❤
Multitasking was never so relaxing 😌 beautiful gardens, delicious looking cake and tea 🫖. Kevin your channel is perfectly relaxing
What a joy to watch your videos! Love the aqua blue cake stand! ❤
Thank you for sharing it looks amazing. I can't wait to try it. Love strawberry and rhubarb.
Your boxwood garden looks magnificent. Boxwood comes in handy for your floral arrangements. Liz, I love your shots of the cats and Avery too. I am certain the cake and Irish breakfast tea were delicious! Thanks Kevin🙏❤️
I made this pound cake for my daughters birthday. It was delicious. Definitely a keeper. I substituted lemon extract for the almond extract and topped it with sliced strawberries and whipped cream.
Beautiful garden. Thank you for sharing all your wonderful videos. roseingeorgia
😇Kevin is an angel, bringing peace and joy to all of us.😇
Love love the cake will make it soon. China and flowers so pretty. Garden looks gorgeous. Will you turn fountain on soon? Birds love it. Those robins will bathe nonstop.
Lovely! I'd suggest placing the teapot (or any other object) to the side so your plate can be seen by the camera. It just feels more welcoming that way.
Love love those kitties!!!
While you were cutting the ruebarb I could taste it raw like we used to do when I was just a young girl. What fond memories you always bring back.😊
Always happen to see a new posting! You make the weekends sing! Thank you.
What a delight to walk through your gorgeous garden and then to be invited to your dining table for dessert. Rhubarb and home grown strawberry pies were so enjoyed at my homestead in Vermont yrs. ago.
All sugar and butter is why it is called a pound cake you can put on pounds as you enjoy it😊
Everything about your videos is marvelous. From the beautiful music glorious scenery.
And a wonderful host❤❤
The boxwood looks beautiful! That cake is so big, it feed a crowd and it looks delicious! Loved the glimpses of the fur babies. Thank you are another lovely video time with you!
Fabulous video! A note: You might be interested in trying a highly prolific, indeterminate Roma-like (though smaller) tomato called "Juliet." I find that Roma's tend to have hard shoulders, so some of the tomato is wasted. Not so with Juliets. Plus, they're FABULOUS for roasting, and they're known for not splitting.
Kevin, my wife made the pound cake to your recipe using almond extract. It was out of this world delicious!
Gracias, Kevin. Siempre es un placer ver tus videos. Un cordial saludo desde España.
I am still amazed at how you started the boxwood garden. Have been afraid of cooking with rhubarb even though I love the taste. Will try the compote recipe. Your cats demonstrate they are the most contented cats in the Hudson Valley❤
Another walk into a secret garden and a lovely treat awaiting at the end. Your videos transport me to another beautiful world. Please continue to take us along. I am sure we all feel as though that second place at your table is just for us.
That cake is gorgeous !!! Hello Avery Binkie and Goldie xx❤ 🇬🇧 xx
I so enjoy your videos Kevin!
You must be so proud of the boxwood garden. It's doing so well.
Kevin, your channel is such a welcomed reprieve from all the happenings in the world today...I miss the more gracious times we all once knew, and watching you brings back that relaxed wonderful feeling...ps I'm on keto but I would still love a piece of that delicious pound cake..I am a southern girl after all, and I grew up on pound cake!
Such a lovely video. Who ever thought watching a stand mixer at work could be so ethereal? The bundt pan looks like one from my home state (Nordic Ware-Minnesota). Your gardens are stunning. Thank you for sharing with us.
Kevin I loved your teatime and your beautiful bone china teacups and the tea made with tea - leaves, not tea. - bags!! Xxx you are so refined and so appreciated. Xxx
The minute your intro music starts, I become instantly relaxed and ready to enjoy your video. Your garden looks gorgeous and you must be so proud of your beautiful boxwood hedges! I’m definitely going to try and make that cream cheese pound cake. It look yummy, especially with tea.
Kevin, how inspiring to hear that not only did you plant the boxwood hedge from cuttings, but that 18 years ago it was basically a parking lot! I'm sure Clover Hill is very happy that you've not only rescued it, but take pride in keeping it looking absolutely amazing❤
Wow! Those gardeners certainly are talented!! What a difference with those boxwood hedges, They look absolutely lovely!!
❤❤❤my mom and I love watching your episodes together - please keep them coming - watching you from Virginia
I made this cake tonight. The batter is the most beautiful I’ve ever seen. The cake is wonderful 🩷
And Avery! Love this little, sweet Avery!
Watching your channel is like coming home. As usual, today’s episode was perfection. And thanks for the tip for square foot gardening. I just ordered the grid for my husband. Amazon.
Sir, your garden looks spectacular!! And your cake with the compote, DEVINE! Well done Sir. 💕🙏🙏
I can't wait to try the cake-thanks for the recipe. One of my favorite tomatoes to grow is a cherry tomato called Sun Gold. It's so sweet and a beautiful orange color.
Kevin, your cake looks so much better that the recipe picture. I love rhubarb and everything looks wonderful together. The tea server is beautiful. Thanks forever inviting us along.
