- Hey y'all!
0:01
Today, I have two of my favorite boys in the kitchen.
0:05
You know, it's always great having Jamie and Jack
0:08
in the kitchen, cause you never know what Jack's gonna say.
0:11
Tell Ginny what all you did at school today.
0:13
- Nothing.
0:14
(Paula and Jamie laugh)
0:15
- That's Daddy's boy.
0:16
- And today we're gonna get a taste
0:18
of our Father's Day meal.
0:20
Always my favorite time of the year.
0:22
With apple-stuffed pork loin,
0:24
onion and sweet potato gratin, and Jack and I
0:28
are going to decorate one of his daddy's favorite cookies,
0:31
pumpkin spice cookies.
0:34
- Does mine look like the leaves?
0:36
- It looks just like leaves.
0:38
- Do I look pretty?
0:40
- It's beautiful.
0:42
(upbeat music)
0:51
(rock music)
0:55
Son, open the microwave and get my coffee out, it's goin'...
0:57
- I want it to be hot enough for you, Mom.
0:59
(both mutter)
1:01
You'll be able to drink it tomorrow.
1:03
- You're wantin' to take the skin off my tongue.
1:07
Alright.
1:09
If we gon' cook this pork loin...
1:12
- We best get started?
1:13
- We best get started 'cause you got to pick up Jack
1:15
from school in a little while, dontcha?
1:17
- That's pretty high on my list of things to do today,
1:19
pick up the child.
1:20
- You know what?
1:21
We're actually close enough, he could walk here.
1:24
- He's four.
1:26
- I know it. But you know what?
1:27
Back in the day, you know, it was amazing.
1:31
- Well, back in your days, when nobody drove cars,
1:34
it was much safer to walk in the roads.
1:36
- (laughs) Peel, peel and chop that apple.
1:39
Because we're making an apple-stuffed pork loin.
1:43
And I just went ahead and had the butcher
1:45
butterfly it for me.
1:47
Alright, I'm gonna season our pork loin
1:50
with some salt and Jamie's gonna cook up some apples,
1:54
brown sugar, walnuts, and raisins
1:57
and we're gonna put 'em in the middle of our pork loin.
1:59
Some pepper, some onion powder.
2:05
You know, summertime is just a really fun time.
2:08
And, for me, it all starts with Father's Day.
2:12
This looks beautiful.
2:14
You know, and it's so lean.
2:17
Alright, there we go.
2:19
Beautiful, beautiful.
2:21
- [Jamie] I'm gonna get the apples started, Mom.
2:22
- Okay.
2:24
- I'm gonna put a little bit of brown sugar in here.
2:27
- Okay, about two tablespoons.
2:29
- Got two tablespoons.
2:31
- Okay.
2:32
(upbeat music)
2:34
Pack it down good.
2:36
- [Jamie] Here I'm gonna do a teaspoon of dry mustard.
2:38
- [Paula] About a quarter of a cup of raisins.
2:42
- [Jamie] Quarter of a teaspoon of ginger.
2:45
- Yeah, the ginger's gonna give it
2:47
a little zip-a-dee-doo-dah, zip-a-dee-ay.
2:49
- And our cider is gonna be our liquid.
2:52
I'm going to do about, about a cup and a half.
2:55
- [Paula] Okay.
2:59
- We're gonna let this cook down for about five minutes
3:02
Mom, I want these apples to soften up a little bit
3:05
and cook this cider down and the raisins and everything.
3:08
Doesn't that smell good?
3:09
- Ooh, it smells good and looks good.
3:11
You know, I love raisins.
3:14
I remember when Jack was little and started eatin',
3:18
you know, real food.
3:20
I would buy him those little miniature boxes of raisins
3:24
and he loves snackin' on 'em.
3:26
- He loves dried cherries now, that's his new thing.
3:28
- And bee-bees.
3:29
- Mhmm.
3:30
- Blueberries. - Still bee-bees.
3:31
- I don't know how they got so lucky.
3:33
At two years old, I could offer him a cookie
3:36
or a bowl of fruit and every time he would pick the fruit.
3:40
Every time.
3:41
He is so precious to me.
3:44
How's the new baby?
3:45
- Matthew's good.
3:46
- Sleepin' good?
3:47
- Sleepin' better.
3:48
- 'Fore we know it, son, he'll be Jack's age
3:50
and we'll wonder where time went.
3:52
- It'll be interesting to see
3:53
how well he shares Christmas morning this year.
3:57
- (laughs) Well it'll be fine this Christmas.
4:00
Jack's so nurtured, he won't have a jealous bone
4:03
in his body.
4:03
In fact, Ginny will make sure
4:06
he has no reason to be jealous. (laughs)
4:10
- I'm gonna put some pecans in here after I cook 'em down
4:14
'cause I wanna keep the crunch of these.
4:16
So I'm going to fold these nuts in
4:18
when we do that corn bread.
4:19
I'm not too far off, actually.
4:20
- If you wanna, - Okay.
4:22
- Measure out about a cup and a half of that corn bread.
4:25
- [Paula] And this is like seasoned corn bread stuffing.
4:30
- And Mom, I got a third of a cup of nuts on the board
4:32
I'm gonna chop up. - Okay.
4:35
(nuts crunch)
4:38
Mm, that's nice and sweet, Jamie.
4:41
- Mhmm, the cider and the brown sugar makes it sweet.
4:44
- The brown sugar, yeah.
4:46
It's gon' sweeten up that piece of meat just a little bit.
4:50
Think Jack'll love it.
4:52
- I did, I did bake pork chops with butter beans
4:56
and rice for dinner last night and he ate it
4:58
like he just got out of prison.
5:00
- Did he? (laughs) - Mhmm.
5:02
He loves butter beans.
5:03
That's his new favorite now.
5:05
- [Paula] Do they give 'im air? (laughs)
5:07
- That boy was born with air.
5:09
(laughs)
5:10
Between me and Jack and Matthew and Champ.
5:14
- I'm gon' say Brooke doesn't stand a chance, does she?
5:15
- Brooke just wanted to,
5:17
she needs to build an addition.
5:18
- Jack'll make a sound and he'll look at me.
5:22
He said, "Ooh, had air, Ginny."
5:25
(both laugh)
5:27
- [Jamie] This is cooked down right there
5:28
about where I want it. - Yeah.
5:29
Yeah, it's gon' be delicious.
5:31
- [Jamie] Mhmm.
5:33
- This is gonna go in the center.
5:36
I've got some twine over there.
5:40
- [Jamie] Look at that, gosh, this smells so good
5:42
now that it hit that bread.
5:43
- Can you do it with your hands or is it--
5:45
- Nah I'm gonna do it like this.
5:47
- Yeah and kinda keep it on there, sonny boy,
5:49
and that's where the fold is.
5:51
Gosh, even my voice sounds funny this morning,
5:53
I can't get awake.
5:54
(upbeat music)
6:03
All right, Jamie.
6:05
- That is perfect.
6:07
- [Paula] Isn't this beautiful?
6:08
Now if you'll cut our string. - Gonna truss 'im?
6:10
- Yes.
6:18
Great, he is gonna be so good.
6:22
Alright, now I'm gonna just put
6:26
a little olive oil on 'im.
6:30
Rub 'im in, take good care of 'im. (laughs)
6:36
And now I'm gonna kiss 'im goodnight.
6:39
(blows kiss) Little kiss.
6:42
And tuck him in a warm place.
6:45
- [Jamie] Gon' put him in the oven
6:46
for about an hour and a half.
6:49
Got it on 350?
6:51
- 375 for about an hour and 15 minutes.
6:56
(water rushes)
6:58
Comin' up next.
6:59
A new Father's Day tradition, onion and sweet potato gratin.
7:04
Little Matthew may get his first bite of sweet potatoes.
7:08
And pumpkin spice cookies just perfect for decoratin'.
7:11
So I can become super Ginny!

7:38

7:39
- I just went back then.
7:40
The glam squad is juicin' and I didn't get you any juice,
7:45
would you like some?
7:46
- No thanks, I tasted yours.
7:47
- I call them the glam squad because, honey,
7:50
if you could see me before they start their work. (laughs)
7:54
Michael has said many times that Jamie Cribbs
7:57
is not a beautician, he is a magician. (laughs)
8:04
I'm juicing' my vegetables.
8:06
- [Jamie] Don't spill any on that shirt.
8:08
- Well, it's almost same color.
8:10
- That juice will mess up a wardrobe if you're not careful.
8:13
- All right, son, we are gonna
8:14
do a sweet potato gratin to go along with that pork.
8:18
And I'm gonna start by making a roux
8:21
and I'm gonna use about five tablespoons of butter.
8:24
- Caramelized onions are one of my favorite things.
8:28
Know, we eat a lot of sweet potatoes.
8:29
Jack loves 'em.
8:31
- They are so good.
8:32
I'll never forget the first Thanksgiving
8:35
I cooked a squash casserole and a sweet potato casserole.
8:39
- Yep.
8:40
- When I put the spoon in his mouth,
8:41
Jamie, and now let's see he was four or five,
8:44
five months old.
8:46
He said, "Mmm".
8:49
At five months!
8:50
- I think Matthew, the way he eats,
8:52
he's gonna want a sandwich at five months old.
8:54
- (laughs) I'm tellin' you what.
8:57
- You know, we call him Moose.
8:59
- Moose?
9:00
- He eats Jack's--
9:01
- Oh my God, I love it.
9:03
- Jack is Bear and Matthew is Moose.
9:05
- Moose! (laughs)
9:09
All right, so I'm just dissolvin' that flour
9:12
into this butter.
9:13
And now I'm gon' measure out
9:16
two cups of half and half
9:20
and I've got some smoky paprika.
9:24
And I'm gonna put about a half-a teaspoon of that in.
9:29
And we're gonna layer this, Jamie,
9:30
into the dish I've got back there.
9:35
Look at that, didn't that turn that a pretty color?
9:39
Kind of coppery.
9:42
- [Jamie] God, it smells so good.
9:44
- You do like the way it smells?
9:46
You comin' all right with the potatoes?
9:48
I'll help ya.
9:49
- Well, I'm hand-cuttin' these as thin
9:50
as I can, so-- - I know it.
9:52
(rock music)
9:59
If you would, son, start gratin'
10:01
that wedge of Parmesan cheese.
10:05
'Cause we're gonna need that.
10:07
'Bout two cups, son.
10:11
All right, now, I'm gonna put a teaspoon of Dijon mustard.
10:15
All right, three tablespoons of brown sugar.
10:20
And...
10:23
- Gon' put a little cayenne in there?
10:24
- [Paula] A little cayenne.
10:26
- [Jamie] Quarter?
10:27
- Yeah, we gonna knock that thing
10:30
with a little bit of heat.
10:33
Now I'm gon' put about a teaspoon and a half
10:37
of salt into our white sauce.
10:42
Little ground pepper.
10:46
And this is startin' to get thick on us now.
10:49
Mm-hmm! - Mm-hmm.
10:51
- Stick your finger in that white sauce, Jamie.
10:54
It is delicious.
11:00
- Ooh gracious.
11:01
- Innit that good?
11:02
- Mhmm.
11:03
- All right-y.
11:05
- Ready to layer it up?
11:06
- Okie doke, I'm gonna spray our casserole dish.
11:09
- Okay, we're goin' potatoes, cream, cheese,
11:12
potatoes, cream, cheese, onions.
11:14
- Yes and the last thing that goes on will be the onions.
11:16
(upbeat music)
11:21
Then like half the sauce.
11:24
This is gonna be so good. - Mhmm.
11:40
- And who knows?
11:41
(spoon bangs)
11:43
Little Matthew may get his first, or Moose, (laughs)
11:47
may get his first bite of sweet potatoes.
11:51
Yum.
11:52
Alright, now Jamie, we're gonna cover this with foil
11:57
after you get it covered with the onions.
12:01
- My mouth just started waterin'.
12:02
- [Paula] Break dime-a day.
12:06
- All right. - So let's roll.
12:11
350.
12:14
30, 35.
12:16
(claps hands) - Uncover, 15 minutes more.
12:18
- Take them naked, 15 minutes.
12:19
- All right.
12:21
- We've done it. - Cheers.
12:22
- Now I'm awake. (both laugh)
12:24
Comin' up next.
12:25
Pumpkin cookies!
12:26
There's just nothin' like a grandparent
12:31
and grandchild relationship, nothing.
12:34
- Yummy icing.
12:35
- What'd I tell ya?
12:37
(upbeat music)
12:41
I hope y'all are enjoying the show
12:43
and I want to hear from you.
12:44
Tell me what recipes or videos you'd like to see me
12:47
make by just leaving a short comment below.
12:51
Now, let's get back to the show, y'all.
12:59
How much longer do we have 'fore Jack gets out of school?
13:04
- [Jamie] We've gotta leave here in 20 minutes.
13:06
- Okie doke.
13:07
All right, so I'm gonna make the--
13:09
- Look how beautiful this turned out.
13:11
- Oh gosh, that's gorgeous.
13:13
All right, I'm gonna make a pumpkin spice cookie
13:18
and I'm creammin' together one cup of butter
13:22
and one cup of sugar.
13:25
And from you I need three and a fourth cups
13:27
of all purpose flour, like a half-a teaspoon
13:31
of salt and two teaspoons of baking powder.
13:36
- Kind of a traditional holiday cookie recipe.
13:38
- Yes, exactly.
13:40
And I've got vanilla flavoring
13:42
and I've got a little rum extract.
13:46
You know, Suzette and Amy and Rick and Alison
13:49
just left. - It is so good
13:50
when we get to see them.
13:52
- I know it, innit fun?
13:54
- I've known Suzette longer than I've known Bobby.
13:55
- Amy and Suzette is my best friend's children.
14:00
Their mother and I became best friends
14:03
when we were both 19 years old.
14:05
We were both pregnant and these children
14:09
have been raised like brothers and sisters.
14:11
We used to put y'all in the car.
14:15
Of course we didn't have to have a car seat for you.
14:18
We had those carry on.
14:20
- I used to ride in the back ledge of the car.
14:22
- Yes you did.
14:24
And my neck was your seatbelt.
14:27
You stood up beside me in the seat like this.
14:30
- I won't go, I won't take Jack to the mailbox
14:32
without a five point harness.
14:34
(Paula laughs)
14:36
How many eggs do you need?
14:37
- Two. (laughs)
14:40
But anyway, they--
14:43
- Remember Suzette was so bad in high school
14:44
and you used to sit back and go,
14:46
"Oh my friend, poor Susan and her daughter."
14:49
And then about the time I got outta high school,
14:51
I went as sideways as she did.
14:53
- I said, what?
14:55
- But at least I was--
14:56
- Yeah, boys are late bloomers.
14:58
Girls start earlier bein' bad.
15:01
And then they settle down quicker.
15:04
But-- - It only took me 20 years
15:07
to settle down.
15:08
- Well, honey, let me tell you,
15:09
it usually takes a man 'til he's about 40
15:13
before he really, really starts gettin' ripe.
15:17
- Yeah, we beat into submission by 40.
15:20
- (laughs) But anyway,
15:24
Suzette and Amy just left and they brought me a rum cake.
15:29
That's what I was talking about, rum flavoring.
15:31
- Did they make it?
15:32
- No, Suzette, you know, works
15:34
at the drive-thru restaurant there at Wagner's.
15:38
And that girl has to get up like four every morning, 4:30.
15:43
- The restaurant business is not for babies.
15:44
- No, it ain't for sissies.
15:46
But so she doesn't have time.
15:48
I'm gon' eyeball this, 'bout a teaspoon,
15:52
a healthy teaspoon--
15:53
- That's why we quit doing breakfast.
15:56
- But anyway, she had one of her customers
15:59
brings her a rum cake every now and again
16:02
'cause Suzette's cookin' all day,
16:04
but it's what they serve at Wagner's.
16:06
Son, would you go around the-- - She's tired of barbecue
16:09
like I'm tired of fried chicken.
16:11
- You know, I couldn't believe when Jamie said
16:13
he was tired of fried chicken and I said you are what?
16:18
All right, so I've got this all creamed up,
16:20
got our flavorings in.
16:22
If you would just kinda add that, you know,
16:24
just a couple of scoops at the time.
16:27
And we're just gonna drop this on the cookie sheet
16:30
and then we're going to go get Jack
16:32
and I hope he likes these cookies
16:33
so I can become Super Ginny! (laughs)
16:39
The other night, Jack was over here and he said,
16:42
"Ginny, let's make some blue cookies."
16:45
I said, okay. (laughs)
16:47
I keep colored sprinkles in my pantry
16:52
so I'm ready at the drop of a hat.
16:54
All right, son, we're gonna do six to a pan.
16:57
Okay. Or you can do 22, whatever you want. (laughs)
17:02
'Cause see, we're making these big.
17:08
All right, in the oven and I mean,
17:10
it's gonna take every second.
17:12
350, 10 minutes.
17:15
- [Jamie] It's still hot from my roast.
17:16
- I know, so I'll go bottom shelf,
17:20
you can have the top one.
17:23
Got to taste a little of the cookie dough.
17:26
- Let's save some for Jack, he loves the dough.
17:27
- [Paula] I know he does!
17:29
- [Jamie] That is good.
17:31
- Oh, the roast. - Oh my God.
17:34
- [Paula] Ooh, I'm so glad you like it,
17:35
I just hope Jack likes it.
17:37
- [Jamie] Speaking of Jack, Mom, we need to go.
17:38
- I know. - Is Groovy here?
17:40
- Yeah. He's back there.
17:41
- You gon' tell him to watch the cookies.
17:44
It'll take us a few minutes.
17:46
- Oh my gosh, those raisins.
17:47
- I can't be late.
17:48
- When I was a young woman,
17:49
I always wanted lots of children.
17:52
If Mother Nature had allowed,
17:53
I know I would have had at least four.
17:56
And I'll sit in the back with Jack!

Pumpkin cookies!
18:56
'Cause you don't have any of the responsibility,
18:59

Ooh, your daddy and I've eat so much cookie dough
19:06

19:08

19:12
Jack, guess what?
19:14
Your daddy and I've been cooking while you's at school.
19:17
- Yes sir, are you ready for lunch, bud?
19:18
(upbeat music)
19:23
- So tell Ginny what all you did at school today.
19:27
- Nothing!
19:28

19:29
(Paula and Jamie laugh)
19:31
- [Paula] Tell Ginny some of your friends' names.
19:34

19:37
(Luke hums)
19:38
(Paula laughs)
19:39
- Only one.
19:40
She used to like girl stuff and now she likes boy stuff.
19:45
- What are you gonna do when one day she comes in
19:50
all frilly with her dress on
19:53
and she discovers that she doesn't like
19:55
to play boy stuff anymore?
19:57
Is she still gon' be your friend?
20:00
Good. All right, Jack, I'm gonna cut this meat up.
20:06
It's got all your favorite things in it.
20:08
Apples and raisins.
20:11
(upbeat music)
20:18
Mmm, that pork roast is so tender.
20:20
- Mhmm.
20:21
- Eat your lunch now so we can do the cookies.
20:24
And we've got to decide how we wanna decorate 'em.
20:27
Kids love the little sprinkles, they love candy,
20:31
they love bright colors, and they love creating.
20:35
(Jack whines)
20:36
What?
20:37
- Icing!
20:38
- Yeah, Daddy's gonna make some icing for us.
20:41
He's mixing together, y'all,
20:42
a package of cream cheese,
20:44
a stick of butter, three cups of powdered sugar,
20:48
and I'm adding in a tablespoon of pumpkin pie spice.
20:53
All right, Daddy.
20:55
Look, Jack.
20:57
- Do I look pretty?
20:59
- It's beautiful.
21:01
You know what I wanna put on it?
21:03
- What?
21:03
- My lips! (laughs)
21:07
(upbeat music)
21:11
Uh-oh, have to lick it off.
21:14
- Yummy icing!
21:16
- What'd I tell ya?
21:18
You said you didn't like pumpkin spice.
21:21
I knew you did. (laughs)
21:23
