When the world gets to be too crazy and I cannot handle the news of the moment, I take refuge in your videos. You bring me to a place of civility and charm. I appreciate you so very much.

Dear Kevin, I’ve learned that embroidered fabrics should always be ironed on the reverse side, so the the beautiful needlework won’t get flattened. ❤

I love this program. As a young homemaker I’ve learned so much about gardening, cooking,hosting and overall just enjoying the home. You are a beacon of light and hope. ❤

THANKS FOR DOGGIE AND KITTENS ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Mr. Kevin, what a pleasure to be getting a notification that a new video is uploaded on your channel. Today's video has everything ! Good food, recipes for a good drink, outdoor time and time spend with your fur children. I just love spending time with you Mr. Kevin. Thank you ❤😊

Kevin, once again you raise the bar and show us beautiful living.

We also take refuge in your lovely videos. We appreciate refinement. Thank you for giving us all a place to go when the insanity of the world is just too great to bear. Be well. We love you, Kevin. We love your working in the soil, we love your flower arrangements, we love your trips to the farmer's market -- just everything you do brings us great joy.

Hi Kevin. Love your channel. I iron altar linens for my church. They are made of finest linen. After washing I roll the wet linens in a towel and place in plastic bag in refrigerator overnight. Then I iron them with a dry iron and keep going over each area until dry. They come out very crisp and wrinkle free. Hope this helps you. Your fan Pam from Florida. ❤

Your videos make me feel so much better about the world. Thank you. Your home is absolutely lovely.

One of the reasons I love your channel so much is that the things you do are practical and realistic. Your gorgeous silver platter, is an example. There are a lot of silver items at charity shops and yard sales for very low prices but I never bought any. Caring for it seemed too difficult. You have inspired me to use wonderful things that are out there for everyone and very attainable. Thank you, Kevin!

Thank you for sending him those beautiful dinner napkins. They are very nice. Greetings from Laos.

Those napkins are beautiful. Don't dry them fully (straight out of spin cycle is good) to make ironing them easier. Hanging baskets are looking spectacular.

"but it's a little weak for my taste" Love it! Everything looks great Kevin! ❤

I began using cloth napkins for every meal in the 80's to lighten our carbon footprint, and can't imagine life without them! The chicken tacos look delish. Thank you Kevin for another lovely video.🌮😍❤

The floral arrangement is one of your prettiest, Kevin. I had a good friend who loved to make mojitos. Sadly, we lost touch when he moved abroad. He used to really get into the muddling part! Aw, I do miss Nick

Hello,Kevin❤ I love all your videos and wish you and your family great health and happiness. My mother is…98 years old and still polishes her silver! I’m showing her your video tomorrow knowing she will truly enjoy it. Love from Athens,Greece❤

I've discovered your channel just a couple of months ago and me and my mum liked your lovely and peaceful videos in a blink of an eye. It's immediately become our tradition - enjoying your kitchen, home and garden updates while having slow Sunday lunch. Thank you so much for bringing so much joy, pleasure and comfort, greetings from Siberia!❤

A genteel Southern lady taught me to spread out wet/damp linen napkins on a flat surface (counter top) and take your hand and smooth it out flat. When it dries, it is if it is pressed with an iron. Over the year, I have done so, and it always makes me smile as it reminds me of her wisdom and her friendship 😊 Only works on 100% linen. Thank you for always brightening my day when watching your latest as I learn something worthwhile and useful 😊

It's a good idea to put the tacos in the holders, I am in Mexico City and I make a mess when I eat tacos, gracias Kevin because I see you like the Mexican cuisine and Spanisch ❤

I have a box of silver pieces inherited from my in-laws. You've inspired me to polish them up & use them!

I agree with you about ironing. It's one of the first chores my dad taught me to do when I was little. He was very particular about how his handkerchiefs and shirts were ironed. I've always enjoyed it--I think it's because the process brings order out of the chaos of wrinkles! It's very satisfying! Lol

You can hang the linen napkins instantly after washing them so that they will stay almost wrinkle-free. You can also pre-iron them just before hanging them to dry. So afterwards it‘ll be very easy to get them perfectly nice and ironed. Love your videos, dear colleague! 💝🙋🏻‍♀️

Love watching your videos especially when I’m a little depressed 😊

You are just so calm and gracious. Your videos are my favorite. Why is the person you are sharing a meal with never seen? Thanks so much Kevin you are such an inspiration ❤️.

I am so happy to see the many comments and reactions to the linen napkins. They will be beautiful on one of your elegantly decorated table settings. As always, love your videos and meal preps.

I too enjoy ironing, it’s very calming to me, and I too use linen napkins , even when I dine alone daily. It’s adding a little elegance to my simple elegant life.

We enjoy seeing your lovely kitties being playful and happy!

Hello Kevin just wanted to thank you for the free shipping code for Tierra farms. I ordered their orange spice organic tea , I highly recommend it. It was lovely. The packaging was all recyclable material , and all products are organic. I so enjoy your videos, Especially your Piano playing❤ take care and stay well.

I love old silver and silver plate!

Here's to more easy dishes, sunny days, and good company! Happy Springtime 💐🌮

Mr. Kevin, I have been enjoying your videos full of ideas and peacefulness. You have reached my island of Puerto Rico. 🇵🇷

My family has always used cloth napkins, we were raising the in the time of the mother earth craze. I never used paper towels either. It's not much work to throw a few napkins in the wash, the same with dish clothes, towels and cleaning rags. You always set such a beautiful table. It makes the food taste better.

What a great video. Loved seeing Avery; Binky and Goldie. The tray turned out so beautiful and the music very soothing. I love the new napkins. The spray for fabric wrinkles does work. The only problem, there is a residue left behind. Dinner looked delicious. I am always amazed that something grows from tiny seeds, fascinating. Hope you and your family are doing well. As always , very happy I found your channel.❤😊

Thank you......some great new information about soil, seeds and carrots! Lovely to watch your entertaining videos and learn new things too!

Thank you, Kevin, for teaching us how to live a beautiful life!💕

Muchas gracias y hasta pronto amigo Kevin y familia.😉💯🌮🌮

Currently doing my Happy Dance! So glad to see Kevin!

I’m from a time and place where electricity was a luxury item. My mom was a seamstress and my father a tailor, they made custom garments for the upper echelons in our city. We didn’t have an electric iron; those we had were filled with hot coals and wiped clean before applying to the garment that was always first covered with a length of pressing cloth (think very Victorian era) 😅 For creaseless cottons and linens (and even delicates such as raw silk or rayon that were ironed last when the coals cooled down), after hand washing they would be gently tugged and stretched into shape. Some would be hung to dry while others would be laid on a sheet or towel on a clean flat surface. Some would also be sprinkled (dampened) if necessary and folded into “rough mounds” and placed in a basket until they could be ironed. Before ironing the edges would be stretched again and they were always ironed first before doing the inner parts. I think those irons were referred to as “sod irons”. Ironing was an art! Nothing was burnt or scorched and creases and collars were impeccable and ramrod straight!! Indeed, those were the days! 😂😂

"Wrinkle Releaser" (Spray) is a Fabric Relaxer. The secret ingredient is Placenta and distilled water. You can buy the cheapest hair conditioner and mix it with hot water to make Wrinkle Release for a fraction of what the Product costs. But you don't need it. And don't starch, it is a bacteria Host that will rot fabric. What you need to deal with linen wrinkling is to Machine wash Gentle and Dry Low Timed for 15 - 20 minutes pulling the item out on time and hang. Use a Quality Steam Iron and distilled water for a crisp finish press. My Current Irion is a Pur // Steam. I formerly used Snarks like you are using. The Pur // Steam gets hotter and is more even. It is a Wattage difference. Side by side you would see what I am saying. I wear linen and cotton almost exclusively due to my climate and keep everything as wrinkle free as possible. Love your show. Look forward to the new episodes.

Kevin, I’m going to adopt you but first, I have to fly to Colorado ,to meet my great granddaughter ,who is now 3 months old. I cannot wait to hold her, read to her and sing baby songs.❤😅

I love a thrift store find of silverplate which always looks elegant with a ceramic teapot and cups. Your videos are so relaxing and pleasant. After a day of work, it is nice to sit on my patio , listen to the birds, and enjoy a glass of wine whilst watching your videos. You keep a little bit of lovely in what can often be a very ugly world. Looking forward to your next video.

Liebe Grüße aus Österreich, danke 😊

One of my chores as a young child was ironing my dad's handkerchiefs. Then as i mastered that i ironed pillowcases and eventually shirts! I actually loved it! Id rather iron than dust furniture or sweep!!!

I don't love ironing but as a quilter it is essential. I find that my best technique is to use the right iron. Rowenta makes good irons for domestic use but to quickly tackle linen and other challenging fabrics nothing beats an iron meant for tailors/commercial garment makers. It made all the difference for me. Costs just a bit more about than a higher-end home iron.

How lovely a visit with Kevin 🇬🇧

I learned to iron by helping my mother iron bed pillow cases. She ironed them because everyone else did. When I was a teen, I ironed creases down the front of my blue jeans (Levi brand). Today, I can't tell you where my iron is.😅

당신의 영상은 보는 사람으로 하여금 항상 편안함을 줍니다 늘~손수 만드시는 디저트에 차와 함께 우아하게 마시는 모습 또한 행복해보여 아름답습니다 올해는 한국으로 여행오셔서 대한민국의 다채롭고 풍부한 음식도 맛보시길 바랍니다~

Нереальная гармония в ваших видео, глаза просто отдыхают и душа находит спокойствие) спасибо вам за ваше творчество! Очень нравится ваша неспешная искренняя подача, много простых и интересных рецептов) а ландшафты, виды… красота) 😍

Cher Ami Kévin. C est toujours un grand plaisir de regarder vos vidéos. Mille mercis à vous. Votre plateau est en métal argenté car en argent massif il n y aurait aucun manque. Cela dit il est magnifique. Que Dieu vous garde. Jlouis. Paix et Amour

Kevin, I’m also enjoy ironing. I tend to do mine when I have laundry in the washing machine. Today you are doing some of the things I enjoy doing, making pickled red onions, chicken fajitas, and polishing silver and brass pieces. 😀😀😀

Hello Kevin from ⛵⛵ Lakes Region New Hampshire. Your linen napkins have brought back a fond memory of my mother. She would take wrinkled items and sprinkle them with a shaker bottle filled with warm water. The items were placed into a pillow case and stored in the bottom section of a kitchen cupboard for a brief period. Then she would take them out individually and steam iron them....

Once again - I wish I were your neighbor! What a lovely way to spend the day! LOL, ironing? Not my favorite chore, but I do it. My mother would take in laundry when I was a child, and I worked as a maid One summer when I was 13. Mom would have me iron and, of course, I had to iron for my employer. Linen is brutal! I remember using a soda bottle with a sprinkle stopper - Worked like a charm! Now we just use spray bottles.

My day got so busy so I had to finish watching today's episode late night. Still has the same effect watching at the end of my day. Calms my soul. All is right with the world, after watching your show. You remind us of the beauty that life has to offer. I appreciate your efforts. The chicken tacos look delicious! Perfect warm weather food. I like the idea of serving mojitos along side. I once had a mojito with fresh blueberries in too. Turned a little bit blue, but tasty. I suppose you could make them different ways. Also want to try making the pickled onions. They would be nice on a salad too. Beautiful silver tray. The cocktails look so elegant set on it. Love to see the kits lounging and frolicking on the stairs. I do own an iron and ironing board, and have enjoyed doing before. It can be very relaxing and make you forget about problems, etc. It makes me think of the neighbor lady when I was a child. She had eleven children, and her ironing board stayed up permanently in her living room. Almost everything needed ironing in those days. I think they even ironed bed sheets. Maybe some people still do. I agree that it's better to use cloth napkins to help the environment. I also try to use tea towels instead of using paper towels whenever I can. Thank you for the video. Take care and have a great weekend. See you next time.♥️🌮🍹🐈‍⬛🐈🌸🌷🌼

Hello Dear Kevin, You're looking well. I take pleasure in the seeing the variety of things you incorporate into every video. You manage to make everything so interesting. And each episode is nicely varied. I also really enjoy seeing Avery, Binky and Goldie. They were very playful today. 😂 They seem to like the stairways a lot. Those tacos with the delicious looking pickled onions look tasty and I know if I make them, I'd have to mmu ch down at least 2! Same thing with those mojitos! 😅 Have a wonderful weekend, Kevin. Our weather is now becoming very warm and pleasant. I have lots of work to do on my balcony and planting my Tomatillos and Baby Beets. And flowers. And I will enjoy every moment of it! Cheers, Judy Ontario 🇨🇦

Love the taco stands!

I'm originally from Texas, so I always use corn tortillas for tacos and enchiladas. And I love to use cabbage for Mexican dishes. It's more authentic and I like the texture and taste better than lettuce.

Kevin, those tacos look delicious! Thanks for introducing us to pelleted seeds. They sound like a brilliant way to plant tiny seeds. We learn something new from each video you share with your viewers.

Dear Kevin, I truly find joy in your video uploads!! I am very fond of cloth napkins and tablecloths and have ironed many of them through the years. For 100% linen napkins, I find that having them very damp and adding a spray starch makes a tremendous difference in getting rid of stubborn wrinkles!! Happy ironing!! 😊

Back before the days of 'permanent press' finishes on fabrics, a batch of line dried, starched items would be sprinkled with water, balled up, and all placed inside a bag that was kept in the refrigerator to keep them from drying out while doing a day's ironing. You could buy a corked sprinkler head that perfectly fit a 32 oz. glass coke bottle that was made at that time. I'm so glad those days are over.Your silver tray shined up beautifully. The tacos look fabulous. I'd imagine those onions give them a delightful crunch. Great video.

My Aunt Nancy taught me how to iron with my Uncle Stuart's handkerchiefs.

Hi keven x all..Greets from Dublin.enjoying your video this evening ..my moments off peace..then l wii b doing my lroning.,,i bring a spray bottle ,filled with water ..l might need for crease cloths..take care off yourself..in sunshine,time for hats..now im sounding like my late mother.who i miss everyday..god bless.x

Kevin, the cast iron urn you painted looks amazing with the flowers you chose❤

Elegant Napkins are also refreshed by ironing ,watching also refreshes me. Very tasty looking chicken tacos and cocktail. The music is fantastic.🌵

Kevin, another pleasant inspirational video; I love seeing your pets

Your gray and white cat looks just like my Josie.

Greetings from Atlanta Georgia.☀️

Another inspiring video. 👏👏👏

Thank you for making the world a better place Kevin & Mr Fox!

Wow, how this ironing takes me back- my French Gramama and my English Nana both had beautifully starched and ironed linens, and I used to hate ironing towels and other things people wouldn't dream of ironing now, but I respect their standards more and more. ( Don't attain them, I hasten to add, but you, Kevin, certainly do!).

I look forward to your vlogs! I just wish they were longer and more frequent ❤. You bring calmness to my day.

Your exactly right about paper napkins! I have found once I launder the napkins take them out of the washer immediately, hang onto a drying rack smooth out wrinkles and that takes care of most wrinkles. Any wrinkles remains easily iron out. Napkins as well as bed sheets iron best when damp! Keep up the great content

Hi Kevin. Something to consider: a Mexican friend of mine always warms her flour and corn tortillas lightly on both sides in a greaseless skillet pan before filling. It really brings out the flavor.

I always sleep better on ironed pillowcases ✨

Kevin, this is another superb video!!! I wish I could just snap my fingers and have about five raised beds in my back yard-I know I would immensely enjoy gardening this way!!! I definitely want to start some herb pots. Your tacos look delicious. I have never had a mojito, so perhaps it’s time to try one!!! That silver tray cleaned up so well-it is so beautiful-what a lucky find for $5. Kevin, I love to iron-I always have!!! I also find it very cathartically stimulating. I like to watch an old movie or listen to good music while I iron. Right now, I have a large basket overflowing with napkins and handkerchiefs waiting on me to iron them. 💝

Very beautiful Kevin thank you so much the only thing missing for me would be cilantro and I'm sure you have it out in that garden somewhere😂

For the Mojitos you have to put sugar and try to mushed it with the mint leaves , cheers from Lima Peru

Beautiful flowers.

Nice to see you have your meals outside in the warm weather!

Me too, love to iron!

Hi Kevin I was a fashion designer many years ago, if I need to iron difficult fabric I would use a spray bottle of vinegar and spray the fabric and then iron. I hope that helps you.❤

What a snap! I'm fond of ironing, too 😂

I use the same silver cream. It’s the best!

Hola! Me encanta lo que haces, delicado, con mucho amor. Se aprecia mucho en estos días donde todo es rápido. La música es preciosa. Gracias una semana más.

Hi Kevin , ironing is very relaxing and like u said very meditational , I enjoy it as well ❤

Kevin, so excited to tell you that I went and bought plants, soil for my potted plants and did a little landscaping . You inspire me! 😊

WONDERFUL video, as usual Kevin! Your content is always enjoyable, and always, informative!❤❤❤

I really love your new (to you) tray. Such a pretty design and great size.

I love me some tacos! Kevin, your version looks delicious.

Cloth napkins make dinning that much more special. ❤

Kevin, you make me smile throughout your entire videos! I love our journeys together!!

Kevin, you live such a gracious life. Please don’t change … ever. You seem to easily cultivate a garden. In SW Florida, a garden is a battle: the weeds, the insects, the heat, the hurricanes. I grew up in Michigan and my mother always had a lovely garden. We grow other things in SW Florida. It’s not as beautiful as your gardens. We have the ghost orchid, but you have to wade into an alligator-infested swamp to see it. I’m lucky enough to have a Clyde Butcher photo of a ghost orchid. I visited his studio in the Everglades and was eaten by mosquitoes. Not just a bite, but a swarm of them on my body and up my nose.

I love to iron. I find it relaxing, plus appreciate how garment looks when Iam finished. Thank you for your videos.

Thank you Kevin for this time with you. I enjoy it very much. Have a good night, Hasta el proximo video Kevin.

IRONING!!! This beloved task gives me instant satisfaction and calms my soul! Love everything about your lifestyle videos as they always remind me it’s the simple and honestly basic things in life that matter most and bring peaceful joy.

Thank you for another wonderful video Kevin. Those tacos look delicious. I am going to try them. I am going to make the onions as well. I really enjoy when you include the fur babies. They are so adorable. You inspire me to take on tasks in a patient, calm manner. Sometimes I get so overwhelmed I don't know where to start. Your videos help me a lot. I look forward to your next one.

Your shoes are always so well done. It feels like spending the day with a gracious neighbor or friend. I’m definitely going to try the recipe for the fajita chicken.

What a great video, Kevin! The tacos look delish, and I've actually been meaning to learn how to pickle onions. Those flowers are looking gorgeous as well!

Super !

Thank you for sharing! ❤️
