Merry Christmas friends, I hope you enjoy this video and meeting some of my friends and revisiting with some you've already met. Let me know below what is your best go to last minute Christmas snack 🌟❤🎄
Wonderful video. Love the recipes, but mostly love the blessings that you and your family do for others. Merry Christmas
Great video, love seeing you with all your friends!
Mel you are so sweet and really the love of Jesus shines through you in your demeanor and your spirit. Praise God!
It was nice meeting your Mama & second Mom. Those cookies are pretty simple but buttery good. I enjoyed each guest and great quick ideas that don’t keep you in the kitchen all day.
A blessed Christmas to you, your husband and all your family!❣️😍
Hi y’all! Thank you so much for sharing! And I LOVE the Lottie Moon recipe! I grew up Baptist and I was a missionary myself straight out of High School because I had a burning in my bones lol. I felt like if I didn’t go I was gonna die lol. I was all over the world and lived in Thailand for 4 1/2 mos- I have a severe peanut allergy and I’m gonna be honest- I didn’t wanna go lol. I was Jonah till the last minute because I have a really bad peanut allergy and there’s no translation difference between peanut and soy so I made my own rice the whole time and offended everyone all over the country refusing food lol. God has a sense of humor. I did make pancakes once for the group we were with and they’d never had that and it was fun for them to try an American staple! I’m sure Lottie like me enjoyed sharing something different from our culture and a big dose of Jesus! Thank you for sharing this recipe! Bless y’all -merry Christmas and so much love from California ♥️♥️♥️
Ray is such a nice man ..Sadie u r a beautiful girl..ur mama and second mama r so beautiful with all what they do for everyone..Janice ur so lovely and ur jams look delicious and ur snacks r awesome love them..God bless everyone this Christmas season and Merry Christmas to u all ..❤❤
Love your videos and recipes, but most of all, your love for the Lord and sharing Him with others!! Merry Christmas, Momma Mel! 🎄 ❤
Awesome video, thanks Mel
Merry Christmas ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Reed is so tall and handsome! It was great to see him! Merry Christmas Mel❤
I have ordered the jams too and loved them!❤
This makes me so happy! Merry Christmas Everyone! 🎄🎄🎄
A year or two ago I asked God to lead me to Christian YouTube creators; so thankful that He led me to your channel. 😊
I loved everything about this video! Meeting all the cooks and the sweet stories behind them, making things with love for the people they love! I laughed and cried❤
and also ordered some Holy Smokes Smoked Olive Oil to try!😊 Thank you Mel and Merry Christmas 😘
Thank you! I love this❤
We are going to make the Lottie Moon cookies. Simple just like Salvation!
Mel, thank you so much for putting this special video together. I throughly enjoyed it. Those s'more that Sadie made look delicious. Reid did a great job explaining his dip. It looked wonderful. Hope you have a blessed Christmas with your family. Take care.
Reed and Sadie you need to start making cooking videos!
I love Lotti Moon. She was a giant at 4 foot 3 inch. I always watch the totals for the offer of my childhood church. Last Sunday they short of the goal.i hope and pray th they make it.
I just loved this video. Reed has grown SO much & Sadie is such a cutie…wanna try both of their recipes. Janice showed some GREAT ideas & time savers also. Granny & Pat? LOVE their message (& cookie recipe…I'm ALL in on anything you can taste the butter in 😊). I pray that some how & some way & at some point, EVERY single human on the planet can hear about our wonderful Lord & Savior 🙏. FANTASTIC video Mel. Just what our Christmas hearts (& tummies) needed.💝
What a sweet video…loved it. Also, on the table the flour was self-rising. But, over where you have the recipesprinted for the cookies it just says flour. I'm going with the Self-Rising. Happy Holidays to you all.
Loved this video with all the sweet people. Merry Christmas!
I love this video with your friends and Mom! Reed & Sadie are adorable and did a great job!! ❤
Merry, Blessed, Christmas to you all!! 👼🎄❤️
Cute friends, Mel!
What a fun and entertaining video. Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
I really enjoyed the video! ive been meaning to ask you where i can get one of the red fluted casserole dish like you have? Merry Christmas to you and your family!
I don’t usually like videos this long, but this was so good. It was a fun Christmas special and parts of it reminded me of the show on PBS. America's test kitchen. Well done! Merry Christmas! 🎄
Omgosh Reed has grown so much!!
What a sweet kid! And a heckuva cook 😊
