Hi Roxanna! Very nice to go see places like book stores or antiques and looking forward to seeing your books you will be sharing with us! Reading is so relaxing and benefits our brain and soul:) The tea set is lovely and how nice to have things that you inherit from family and that makes it even more special to use. What a wonderful way to bond and spend time together😀 Have a great week ahead!
I absolutely love the simplicity of your videos. I hope you keep them real as your channel grows, that's the beauty of them. I wait each week for your videos. The food is lovely too. You are special.
@@glennacoriell6445 awe thank you! ❤️
Beautiful way to spend a fall day. Ive never made dumplings but will try. Browsing for books for the cozy season is perfect.
@@tinaphilbin3351 I actually think I prefer the individual portions instead of a full. It’s the same taste but I can make half the amount. Thank you for watching 😊
Such a peaceful, relaxing video, Roxanna! This time of year is my absolute favorite for baking, reading, teatime! I've never made my own candles, but it looks like a fairly easy process. Did you adopt a new kitty? I am a cat mom and cannot imagine not having my furry friend to keep me company! Have a wonderful weekend! ♥♥
Just viewed your beautiful relaxing video always look forward to watching them 🇬🇧🏴🍁💕
@@kathrynthompson8148 I am so glad you do! ❤️😊
Just now found you and Thoroughly enjoyed your video. May I ask what were those stainless things that looked like a spoon with the handles bent back? They reminded me of teabag rests or sampling spoons.
@@myview6852 hello and welcome! Yes those are for resting tea bags and sometimes I use them for my spoon too so I don’t drip I don’t drip on to the table.
Of course I’ve enjoyed this video! Again my mouth is watering lol 🤣 I wish I could stay for tea my darling 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙋🏻♀️
@@susanvelez6534 yes for sure! 🫖❤️
Those hand pies look awesome! I have your artisan bread rising for tomorrow and plan on making your butternut squash soup to pair it with for dinner. Funny story……this past Sunday, we were invited over a friend’s house to watch a football game and I offered to bring something. I made your soft pretzels and they were a HUGE hit. I think from now on, I’ll be expected to make them for Sunday football.😂 Have a great week Roxanna!
@@GoldenDuet that’s so awesome! Those pretzels I had to take a break from making them. There addicting lol. I hope you enjoy the soup and bread ❤️
What a beautiful tea setting for Autumn. Apple dumplings look scrumptious. Have a great week!
@@MelP-o9f they were so good with the tea. Perfect autumn treat. Enjoy your week as well!
I think hand pies are the perfect size, and I’m sure the chickens loved the peels. Did you get a new cat friend? Have a blessed weekend
@@sharenp3839 we did! This week. So far he’s fitting right in. I have never had a cat so I was nervous lol. Have a great weekend ❤️
Lovely video and beautiful music. You are absolutely precious to calm us. Many thanks
So mine did not bubble in the bottle but grew mold after day 4 in the sealed bottle. Not sure what went wrong
@@dogdoc1420 oh no. I have never had this happen before and not quite sure what even went moldy. It’s hard to say what went wrong with not being there to see but possibly the bug was not strong enough to ferment, saying this cause you mentioned there was no bubbles. For future, if you should try again. You will see like a foamy top to the bug when it needs to be fed. This is how you can tell it’s alive. And it needs to be stirred after feeding each time to work up the yeast in the jar. You should have see slight bubbles forming on day two of bottling the ginger beer. Hope you try again and sorry this happened but hope this helps :)
@aquaintlife so it had bubbles initially, and I wasn't ready to bottle, then the bubbles dissipated as I continued to feed it waiting for bottles to arrive. The bug tastes fermented, and was stirred daily
Hi Roxanna wow beautiful grapes parents use to have alot in there vines your video brought back memories 😮 Hope your having a great week 😊❤❤❤
@@nikkifangaiuiha6081 very sweet. Hope you are as well! ❤️
A tip from my savvy 30-year old niece on clothes shopping: Take time to consider how many times do you plan to wear it and calculate the cost of each wear. A thrift store blouse at $3 worn only once (for whatever reason) may actually cost more than a higher priced new blouse that you will wear every week for months to come, and love wearing it. This principle helped me curb my career closet. Of course, when shopping retail, still look for best bargains.
Everything looked so nice, Roxanna!❤
Does the drop cloth fabric stain easily? ....I have 5 kids..... Lol😂
The food looks easy and delicious! I like that you addressed getting people to come into one’s home…something I remember people did all the time when I was growing up…dinner parties and cocktail parties for the grown ups..how people met one another…now hardly anyone does it…or only their extended families…I hope people will start to do that again 🌞
@@amlach6148 too true! It’s a shame to lose that sort of connection.
Where is the recipe
@@lynettejoubert941 you can find the link in the description box below the video :)
Lovely table setting! The flowers match the napkins and it looks so elegant😀 I love the square plates and all of the other dishes you use for food. The eggplant dish looks so delicious and healthy! The dessert glasses are very nice. Very inviting for your guests :) Thanks for the video Roxanna! Charmaine.
Thank you Charmaine! Some of those dishes were my grandmothers and she used them for entertaining too so they are extra special. Have a great week :)
@@aquaintlife Your very welcome Roxanna! How nice to use your grandmothers dishes and share them with others :) What a nice legacy she left behind for you and your children and eventually grandchildren:) Thank you very much🤗 Have a wonderful week too!
Hi Roxanna beautiful lunch your friend is lucky to have a wonderful friend like you, That food looks so delicious hope youse had a great time 😮❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much 🤗
That looks delicious. I hope you and your friends enjoyed your beautiful lunch .x
We did. Its so nice to spend that time. Thank you for watching!
Pure charm…your friend is a lucky girl to have such a beautiful lunch!
Hi Roxanna, Thank You for sharing another inspiring video with us. 😊 Having a luncheon to celebrate your friend and her birthday, IS Super Sweet, and Everything looked Wonderful. Thank You again Roxanna, and Lord willing, until the next one. 🙏🏾 Love In Christ, Paula
@@morp3022 hello Paula! Great to hear from you. It was a fun afternoon for sure. Glad I could share it :)
@@aquaintlife that's Wonderful that you had a fun afternoon together, and that all of you created Sweet memories to Cherish. 🥰
Yummy Roxanna that looks delicious. What a beautiful job you always make my mouth water with all these recipes. I hope you’re doing well and your daughters doing well. Much love Susan.
@@susanvelez6534 we are and I hope you and your partner are as well. ❤️❤️
Now I have to try making this dessert! I love that the recipes are simple. By the way, some of my best meals have been the ones that are more spontaneous and you’re right, keeping it simple makes it doable. Please people….try some recipes from her blog!! It’s been a joy trying her recipes. Have a great weekend Roxanna!😊
@@GoldenDuet awe I am so glad you are trying them! I appreciate you visiting over on there too. ❤️❤️
What a beautiful luncheon. That curry! Yum.
Hello Roxanna! I am a planner, for sure, and am much more relaxed when I can plan ahead! What a lovely gift for your friend, and I hope she had a wonderful birthday! Wishing you a great weekend!
@@loriholland6431 yes true! I don’t like not having what I need. I do have to improvise a lot lol. It was a lot of fun. Enjoy your weekend!!😊
I’m pretty sure I was drooling. I do love eggplant. Looks like a very nice and relaxing birthday lunch.
@@sharenp3839 you have to try it! It’s on repeat here for the moment. Enjoy your weekend! 😊❤️
Hi Roxanna you have an amazing kitchen l love it, l have already done my kitchen cupboards too clean all the old stuff and now its all done for Spring, thanks for this wonderful video have a great week 😊❤❤❤❤
@@nikkifangaiuiha6081 thank you!! It’s come a very long way! Enjoy your week as well 😊❤️
I have found that a good thrift store is a terrific source for cloth napkins and table cloths. I buy them in colors that compliment each other so I don’t have to find complete 8 -10 person sets.
@@SimplyBeautiful516 yes!! It’s hard to find several that match thrifting them so that’s a great idea to put them all in the same color scheme! Love it ❤️
Thank you, enjoyed.😊
I like the checked curtains for fall.
@@lindasmith5190 I am loving them too. I stood in that fabric store far too long trying to decide lol.
Doesn't it feel wonderful to get clutter cleaned up and some out of the house! The bread looks so good.
@@lindasmith5190 it does! It makes a world of difference. I am motivated to find more areas. Thank you for watching 😊
Wonderful video! Love the variety you put into this video:) The beautiful flowers and garden produce and hanging up laundry and cooking and baking. Having a great cup of coffee in the morning! I just love to have that first thing in the morning:) What we make our homes and how we make it our oasis as me and my husband say all of the time. It's our retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and a place to recover your senses and relax and enjoy your surroundings with the ones you love😀 Thanks for the video and I greatly enjoyed watching it!
@@charmainescarborough5646 I am having that first cup now ☕️ I agree, I love life inside my home ❤️. Thank you for watching and I am glad you enjoyed it 😊
@@aquaintlife Coffee is wonderful! Me too! You can have true peace and happiness in your home😀 Your very welcome Roxanna! I sure did and looking forward to more videos! Take care, Charmaine🤗

Hi Michelle! Good to hear from you! Hope you are well :)
Are those fruit grapes or wine grapes darling
@@susanvelez6534 these are a common grape so they can be used for pretty much anything.
What I do with our elderberries is I freeze them then the come right off the branches then I clean them it’s a time saver …… I love that outdoor sink do you have your own well ?
@@susanvelez6534 oh nice! Good idea! Yes we have a well. It’s very nice to have over city water. At least I like it better anyway.
@@aquaintlife swell is the best 👏🏼👏🏼

Good amount that you harvested! Everything looks delicious! Have a great weekend ❤
@@sharenp3839 yes! And there is so much more on there 😳. Have a great weekend!
I could literally smell that focaccia bread through my screen as you were cutting it at the end! LOL 😋 (It’s really like a sophisticated Italian jelly doughnut!) The Rosemary is a wonderful addition!! 😃👍💕
@@hillcountrycottage it is a really nice unexpected dessert. Very Jammie. Thank you for watching!
