Celebrating Appalachia
США
Добавлен 26 июл 2020
Welcome! Glad you stopped by and hope you stop by often as I celebrate my Appalachian Heritage.
My name is Tipper Pressley. I was born and raised in the mountains of Western North Carolina. I’ve always had a great love and appreciation for my rich Appalachian culture and heritage. In March of 2008 I started the Blind Pig & the Acorn blog in an effort to preserve and celebrate Appalachia.
This channel will continue my endeavor of celebrating the rich culture and heritage of the Appalachian Mountains.

Thanks!
Embrace the change ❤
Starting with my great great grandmother they had a long history of healing. They handed a lot down to her. For instance to scorch a white cotton rag on the wood stove or even just a burner on the stove which was permeated with menthol or in later years vicks salve appled to the chest worked wonders. She told me that Mullen and cherry tree bark she had been told by them was one of the best medications ever for a cough and cold. She also had a recipe of 80 proof Georgia moon, rock candy, lemon, and honey that you took a spoon full of that would break up pulled and congestion. Almost forgot 2 ounces of glycerin per pint. It has to be syrupy.
Biscuits and gravy every morning growing up and that bacon grease mixed wit about everything thing that was cooked .. gee y’ll garden some good crops growing and good picking starts what was that garlic recipe stuff? Ty’s for video
Tipper Wytheville is pronounce withvill or if you are from the area it's wiffle
It’s amazing 5 years out be a jack of all trades. Life was so different back when. I could actually see the silver ribbon as he was describing the valley and great clear description of Budcus grabbing the air as he walked . I instantly thought of REO Speed wagon as well. I love them. Thanks for the story time. Brooks Oregon
Oh Tipper, I so appreciate your reading to us. I can sorta lose myself in the stories. Grief has affected me terribly. Father's Day was hard, but Larry's birthday is coming up on the 26th. My heart is just breaking. Thank you & the girls for y'alls prayers. I remember helping my son with his homework one time. It was ALL wrong!! He was so upset with me that he told me I'd never help him again!! Lol! He was always a straight A student and I guess he didn't want me to mess that up for him!! His teacher let him redo that homework and he aced it! Guess I'd been out of school way too long!! I really enjoy your reading so much! Your voice is so comforting and I love the books you come up with to read!! God bless y'all always! Hugs from VA! ❤️🩹
I just love this book so much Tipper. Thank you for sharing it with us and for reading it to us. You could be a professional reader for audio books. You’re great at it and your voice is so calming. Have a good weekend. Stay cool. Be well & take care.
I make my slaw with grated cabbage, carrots and dill pickles mixed with mayonnaise thinned with some of the pickle juice to taste. Also black pepper to taste. I usually don't add salt as the pickles have enough salt. No measurements . I just put it together depending on how many people are coming to eat. Leftover slaw, if any, is even better the next day.
Its so relaxing for you to read the book 😊
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊
Yes Tipper! I just started making angel food cake w| 7 min. Frosting for my family. My grandma used to make it for me when i was growing up in the 90s! This makes my ❤ happy! Thank you!
We tie a dryer sheet every foot apart and it keeps the deer out. Water with hot sauce sprayed .....keeps the bugs out.
I love REO Speedwagon as well. I saw them in concert back in the 80s in high school. When I heard you read that part, that band was my first thought. I started wondering where they got their name from. I just had to pause the story and find out. Turns out one of the band members saw it written on the blackboard in one of his college classes, The history of transportation was the name of the class. It was a delivery type of truck from 1915. I can add that to my big stack of bits of information that I will probably never need unless I get to be a contestant on a game show someday. 😂 Thank you for reading to us again. I truly look forward to these times on Friday night to just sit back and relax.
Another great read, thankyou Tipper. God Bless.💚&🙏🙏/s for All. Jean
Tipper, your yard is just so beautiful with the vegetables and flowers, blueberry bushes and all. Just stunning!
I like to freeze some of my holiday trifle if i make a large one.
You mentioned Poke, Tipper. I know my grandma always talked about eating poke. We had some grow wild. I looked online on how to fix it. It scared me to death. From what I read Poke is toxic? I ended up pulling it out. I never heard of anyone dying from eating it. So, I’m confused.
My dad graduated from Normal School in 1931 and got a job for the 31'-32' school year, teaching grades 1-8 in a rural one room school in Northwest Wisconsin. It paid 80 dollars a month plus room and board. He'd stay one week with one family and another family the next. The depression was really starting to deepen all over the country. The following year, 1932-33 a girl under bid him for half the salary. He finally found work in a Ford garage for 50 cents A DAY. All of that money went to his folks for room and board. He said that his dad, a blacksmith, was often paid in farm produce to repair machinery or shoe horses, on the barter system. Grandpa even paid his city and county taxes by repairing their machinery. No one had money. Dad said that in the 1920s the wolf never got to the door, but in the winter of 1932-33, she came in, laid down behind the stove and had pups. We have it so easy today, by comparison . Love y'all.
My mom always planted by the signs and surgery was only done if the signs were right
Tipper...I am so proud for you on your garden. It looks just wonderful! Unfortunately my garden is as you said "in the deep dark hollars" as of late. Tomatoes are pitiful, beans, peas and okrie are just now beginning to come up as is the squash and cucumbers. So slow, cool and damp until this week. I wasn't able to plant until about two weeks ago and I got so tired of hauling the tomatoes in and out of the garage every morning for the previous month. Just don't know if anything will actually produce much this year here in the Northwest. Unfortunately that's the way of gardening up here some years. Had I planted a bunch of greens I'd be covered up!! I figure that I'll give most of until July 4th and if it still looks pitiful then I'll put it out of my misery and get ready for fall garden stuff like turnips, collards, mustard, radishes, etc. Press on!
Thank you for showing us your beautiful garden. Your cornfield is so lovely. ♥️
Seeing the Terrapins brings back memories! When I was a child in the '70's I used to play with Terrapins when we visited my grandparents in Oklahoma (I'm from IA). Also, black raspberries are my absolute favorite! My grandma used to make black raspberry pie and black raspberry cobbler every summer. They were so good! Good luck with the darn squash bugs!
I am enjoying this book.
I’m loving this book! I ordered one for my Mother. I think she will really enjoy it too! Thanks Tipper!😊Regina
Thanks for your weekly readings. This book is a really great one. I love it.
REO Speedwagon, one of my favorite bands and the origin of my favorite brand of car. the band did take their name from the Automobile i am loving this book very much.
Tipper I do so enjoy your videos You all are so Blessed to live in such a Beautiful Place. Such a peaceful delightful life you live. God Bless all of you.
Thank you Tipper. Such an interesting story. 😊
My hometown…. I live in Athens now, but eat at the Clayton cafe often
Almost time to set up a screen tent with a hammock so Matt can sleep out by the corn and keep the deer away. 🙂 Gotta make sure the mosquitos don't get him.
This book just gets better and better
Yes Jesus loves us all!
That looks like a great dinner!
I hope it works for you. I have not seen any around here.
Ummm....we didn't have a playground in high school...
I always put my initial on my turtles too as a child❤❤❤
Also Tipper, you're very intelligent. Please don't worry about that.
Love this story Miss Tipper. Given Budge's physical description I thought about the neurological conditions that afflicted this young man. I too laughed at the mention of the REO Speedwagon bus and I immediately thought of the rock band. I am hooked on this story. Thank you for giving your time to read to us each week. God bless and keep you and your family,..
Can't tell.you how.much I love your channel!! I ordered this book. You are SO VERSICAL! THANK YOU!!!❤
I used to hitchhike everywhere and yes we called it thumbing. Jesse is a fascinating character and I'm enjoying the book.
I'm happy he decided to continue teaching and got more of a challenge than he expected... Enjoying this book immensely! Thanks Tipper 🤗❤️
Yes! Yes! I love this book💖💖
Now that's how you start a video❤❤❤❤❤❤
Im so curious about the description of Budge . The eye shape and the hand movements when he is standing or walking ???? Savant, possibly?
Well Tipper I must confess I’m addicted to the pineapple outshine popsicle !
The poppies are amazing! I had only ever seen red or white ones. Wild raspberries! ❤️
Thank you so much for reading this wonderful book to us. I've been looking forward to Fridays just for this! Much love and God bless you and yours.
The worn down school buildings arouse sympathy for this wonderful school teacher. This book is a WINNER in Descriptive writing !👏👏👏👏👏
