- Today's video is a little bit different, I thought it might be nice to do a monthly 'practical slot'....
It's quite difficult filming some of these so please bear with me, I'm sure I'll get better in time. Hope you like it.
It is a bit long... you can always fast forward! The first half is baking cakes and the second half is a couple of projects on my Cricut machine. #cricut
I live in Cyprus and you have no idea how lovely it is to hear little English birdsong in the background...🐦I miss it so much...x
Ah, that's nice xx
Happy Birthday to Hattie!🥳 At Home With Helen is wonderful and I hope you’ll make it a regular feature. Glad Rob is feeling well and hope he continues to.
Thank you xx
I love "At Home with Helen"! Keep them coming... ❤Thanks so much!!
My pleasure, thank you xx
I do like at Home with Helen. I used to bake a lot when my kids were at home and watching you does make me want to bake again x
Thank you xx
Give it a go xx
Thank you Helen. Thanks to you I am getting braver baking cakes not thinking that everything has to be perfect! And they soon get eaten whatever they look like! Whipped cream is in the freezer. You are a handy tips goddess and you are so good to let us benefit from all your experience. Your family are so lucky to have you
Ah, thank you xx
Love "At Home With Helen" fabulous idea. Can't wait for "Christmas At Home With Helen" 🤣🤣
The blue dress you are wearing just looks so lovely on you, blue is definitely your colour. Hattie's cake is amazing, you really can put your hand to anything. Hope she has a fabulous time. I just look your laid-back attitude to housework etc. My Mum always use to say to me, "it will still be there tomorrow", to which I would reply, "that's just it, I don't want it there tomorrow". Now after 40 years of marriage this year I am realising she was right. So don't give a toss quite so much. xx
Your Mum was right! Tomorrow never comes..... xx
i love that you aren't "precious" with your baking. all of this is VERY new to me and to ME you are a Domestic Goddess! thank you for sharing this with us and helping take the fear out of homemaking...laundry tips anyone hahaha
You are so welcome xx
I agree
Lovely idea! Looking forward to this series! ‘At home with Helen’ ……….Happy Birthday to Hattie! 🎂🎂xx
Thank you! 😊 xx
Hi Helen. I like the idea of your ‘At Home with Helen’ crafting and cooking videos and you are very talented. It always makes for more variety and interest in a channel. I’m glad Rob is doing well and wishes for a very happy birthday to Hattie. Great cakes! 💖🌸🎂
Thank you xx
You have the most beautiful home and garden...❤Just Gorgeous!!!
Thank you xx
Love to watch you cook/bake! Lovely that you keep your neighbor feeling thought of - it really is everything in Life!
You have so many talents and such patience with the craft work.
Thank you xx
That's funny, because patience is a virtue I don't possess.... or so I thought! haha xx
THAT LOOKS AWESOME 😊 I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO DO THAT . CHEERS AND I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE BIRTHDAY CAKE ❤❤ HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO HATTIE ENJOY YOUR SPECIAL DAY 🎉🎉🎉🥰😍🤩🤩🤩
Thanks for showing what Cricut machine does as I never really knew. I would never have the patience to use one!
My pleasure. Small projects can be very quick, I enjoy it. xx
Thanks Helen. The birthday cake looked great, bet they enjoyed it xx
They did. Thank you xx
You are really a multi talented lady. Thank you for showing us such "easy" tecnics. ❤
Thank you xx
Hello Helen, you may not realize it but you are really great to watch your personally is funny and sincere. The loft cake looked delicious and the birthday cake was gorgeous. Helen that cheese broad is such a great idea and your neighbor is very blessed to have such a thoughtful person like you making him a delicious cake each week....I enjoy each of your videos.
Ah, thank you very much xx
Love your baking tips. I’ve learned so much, your fail safe cake recipe and your Yorkshire pudding recipe. Love your dress.
Thanks so much 😊 xx
That was great Helen you are great to watch, Happy Birthday to Hattie, glad Rob is keeping well. Love to you mum too. Xxx❤😊
Thank you xx
Oh my mum had her Kenwood mixer and never had another one. She made wedding cakes and birthday cakes (she was a cook) and she only ever used that mixer. I’m 50 and she had it all the time I can remember. It was a cream and blue colour, or discolour ha ha. It never failed her until the motor actually conked out. A proper bit of kit. Lovely video 😊
Yes, mine conked out after 43 years.... not bad going really xx
I really enjoyed this, especially the baking. What I love is the chatter as you work, it’s like being with a friend. Thank you 😊.
You are so welcome! xx
Thanks Helen, no fuss just getting on with it - great love it 👍🏻👍🏻. Happy Birthday Hattie 🎉🎉🇨🇦
Thanks so much! 😊 xx
Definitely “At Home With Helen” my kind of thing ….love it ..Glad Rob recovering well …& 🎁🎈Happy Birthday to Hattie 🎂🎉🎉..Just love your easy going authentic way …Refreshing …Have a lovely day Helen …xx
Thank you very much xx
What a lovely cake! Happy Birthday to Hattie! So enjoyed watching you bake and craft.... fabulous idea Helen! ❤
Thank you xx
Love this video Helen it nice to see something different I may have to get a one of those machines! Thanks ❤
Next time I'll use the Joy machine which is much smaller but adequate for most jobs. xx
Well done Helen you are so clever and have lots of patience really enjoying your items xx
Thank you xx
Congratulations on reaching 16k well done Helen. Really enjoyed this vlog x
Thank you very much xx
Love it. Love the cooking and baking no nonsense it’s great.
Thank you xx
Loved the cake ❤
Happy Belated birthday Hattie. Hope you had fun 🎉🎉🎉.
Great video Helen.
Thank you for sharing 😊🖐 Hellooo to Rob and your Mum and the rest of your family. ❤
Thank you xx
What a great idea to have At Home with Helen videos, it’s always interesting to watch others cook and craft and to learn from them. So looking forward to more 🎉. I admire anyone using the Cricut machine - but it’s not for me, I get in a sticky mess just using sellotape 😂 x
Haha, fair enough xx
Hi Helen I have just been transported away watching you its lovely to be able to do things yourself and feel so proud of the results, well done. Hope the party goes well and you all enjoy a slice of delicious cake.❤
Thank you xx
I’m very impressed with your technical expertise with the Cricut machine. Well done. Obv the cake too. You are so multitalented. Xx
Oh, thank you xx
Loved the video Helen, more please..
Thank uou for sharing this with us,

Thanks so much Lesley xx
I enjoyed the video as I love baking and crafting, the birthday cake was excellent , I bet Hattie was pleased x
She was.
Thank you xx
Thanks that was interesting to watch. I dont think I have the patience to do the labelling on your machine but you did a great job !
I know someone who does specific things on each day of the week ie ironing Monday,clean bathrooms Tuesdays etc..I say get a life it will still be there when you've gone!! I just do it when I see it needs doing 😂
My ethos exactly!
Thank you xx
I love my Kenwood chef...mine was my Mums..very retro...but I love it!! Xx
Lovely xx
Not pretentious at all - just loved every bit. You are so natural and entertaining . More please. x
Thank you very much xx
Hi Helen. Enjoyed your video so much. Hattie's birthday cake looks lovely. The chopping board idea is such a personal touch. Love the backdrop of your garden. You are one talented lady. Look forward to seeing more videos like this, thank you xx
My pleasure, thank you xx
I could smell that cake from here. Love crafting your gift idea is fab 🙌❤️💜💙💚
Thank you xx
Loved the video and would definitely like to see more cooking and crafts! Happy birthday Hattie! Her cake was lovely! Xx
Thank you xx
Love the video,really enjoyed the variety,want to bake cakes now 😊Hatties cake looked fabulous,and the gift for your friend was very unique too ❤
Thank you xx
The cake turned out terrific - looked professional to my eyes!
Thank you xx
Like you had my Kenwood when I was first married at 21 used it at multiple times per week so when it died a few years ago wanted another Kenwood chef and to my dismay had to return a few months after purchase but it came back fine didn’t give me much faith on its longevity after 40 years before! I was intrigued to see you put your big cake in a cold oven or did I imagine that, how did it turn out as have always heated my oven beforehand unless using the Aga switched off in summer, too expensive to run and too hot!?? I love your craft videos thanks so much for sharing. Lucky Wendy loved what you did. My daughter and I thought about getting a Cricut machine look fun.😊
I didn't preheat the oven, not really necessary is a fan oven.
The Cricut machines are fun. I'll use the 'Joy' next time as that is smaller and cheaper and covers most options xx
Love “At home with Helen” !
Thank you xx
Fab video again Helen, loved to see how the Circut machine works, very impressed! 👍🏻😍 xxx
Thank you xx
Hello! Well done on the cake Helen! Happy birthday to your Mum, you and Hattie, belatedly from the land of the kangaroos. Sorry to be late..At home with Helen is a lovely idea, I just love seeing you and listening , because you bring me JOY! ❤❤❤🎂🎂🎂
Thank you so much! xx
Dear Helen, Helllooo.
It was such a delight today watching "at home with Helen." I would love to see more of these darling vlogs more often. We learn such a lot. Toot Toot
Thank you xx
Hi Helen great idea for cooking and crafting, l love card crafting a good way to relax. Good to hear Rob and your mum are well Happy Birthday to Hattie 🍰xx
Thank you xx
Loved the vlog more of At Home with Helen. I made the 8oz cake really lovely. Cakes look fab. 😋Happy Birthday Hattie🎂 thanks Helen💕
Thanks so much! 😊 xx
“Pretentious Moi ?”🤣 reminds me of that wonderful Fawlty Towers episode.
But, no! You are not being pretentious at all! Just inspirational and very entertaining. A great idea Helen. Made me want to get into the kitchen again to bake. And I love everything crafty! Loved the chopping board! Wonderful present idea!
Xxx
Thank you xx
Great vlog Helen. Loved the baking and the crafting. I have a Cricut joy and any tips are greatly appreciated. Happy Birthday to Hattie 🎉 x
Thank you xx
Really enjoyed watching all of that Helen x thank you for sharing xx
My pleasure, thank you xx
Lovely cake Helen, loved the baking and crafting,show us more. Xx Bev
Thank you xx
Beautiful cake Helen, Hattie is very lucky to have you as her Granny! Xxx
Ah, thank you xx
Well Helen what a video, great title "At Home with Helen" loved it very relaxing watching the label making , hope Hattie liked her cake it looked just the job !! xx
Glad you enjoyed it xx
Fabulous Helen.. you are great - love your At Home videos x
Thank you very much xx
Very talented lady..I’m sure Hattie was thrilled with her fab birthday cake 🍰 x
She was, thank you xx
I enjoyed 'at home with Helen' 🏡😊 also that you say it as it is! As you say no faffing about! The cake🎂 looked delicious. 😍🤗
Yes! Thank you! xx
I enjoy anything you do ! Like your dress and it looks cool and comfortable. Homemade is so much better than shop bought . Your kitchen is perfect for demonstration. That weighing machine is nice , useful. I usually measure with an old tablespoon . I wouldn't trust a modern one to measure an ounce . Love Kay
Thank you so much! xx
I enjoyed watching you bake and craft today. You are multitalented! I’m sure the cake went down well and the board was a success.😊
Thank you xx
Board is not for a couple of weeks yet. I don't think she watches my vids..... fingers crossed xx
That was a marvellous video Helen….., loved the baking and you make the crafting look so easy, as you have a lot of patience. Harriet would love her Birthday 🎂 Cake and excited for her Party. You still sound very hoarse. 🏴xx
Yes, still playing up.
Thank you xx
Thanks again Helen - thoroughly enjoyed it xxx
Thank you xx
At home with helen yes please, great video helen ❤I always look forward to your videos ❤
😊 thank you xx
Really enjoyed the cooking and crafting demo. I like baking but have never had a lot of patience for crafting although I do admire those that can produce some wonderful items.! Look forward to the next one. ❤
Thank you xx
Love all you do I get my cup of tea and relax !😘
Ah, that's nice. Thank you xx
Have thought about getting one of those machines but watching you I don’t think I would have enough patience. Great video x
It's not always that difficult. I'll do another little project with my 'Joy' machine which is smaller and cheaper and does most things xx
Helen: You have such patience to do that craft. I am impressed, really. Your cakes look delicious. My grandmother from Scotland, that moved to Canada, would have made that Jam Cake. Baking is not my best chef skill. I can cook anything else, but when it comes to baking, I need your skills. The cakes either fall, do not come out of the pan well, or I eat all of it even if it does not look great. Ha Ha. Your backyard looks beautiful. The best to you, always. Cathy xoxo
Thank you so much! xx
Hi Helen,thank you for the inspiration using your Kenwood mixer.I haven’t baked anything for some time but with your all in one method Iam looking forward to baking again with my 50 year old Kenwood mixer .Looking forward to seeing the finished birthday cake 🎂 xx 😘😘♥️♥️♥️
That's lovely. There's a photo of the cake at the end of the video xx
@@Helenmaryjo yeah great looking birthday cake 🍰🎉🎊♥️♥️♥️😘😘
Loved the vlog. Happy bday Hattie, I’m sure she loved her cake x
Thank you xx
Hi Helen Kenwood mixers last for ever, mine was my mothers so over 50 years old. Interesting video, cakes look delicious, thank you for sharing 😊
Yes, mine died about 2 years ago. Smoke coming out, but I kept the bowls etc as they all fit the new one. xx
Lovely video - looking forward so much for the series! Greetings from down under New Zealand 🇳🇿 😊😊
Thank you xx
Lovey video Helen it's a refreshing change the cake looks amazing x
Thank you xx
Love 'At Home with Helen!' especially any baking/cooking that you do. You inspire me to 'have a go' as I'm not very good at either! Glad you're making it a regular slot! PS would love more air fryer ideas also (I didn't know you could cook rice in the air fryer!).
Thank you. I will be doing another air fryer one very soon xx
Hi Helen, I am a crafter and have had Cricut machines for years, i also have another electronic cutting machine, it was lovely to see you demonstrating using a cricut , sometimes when people demo Cricuts they try to make a big thing out of it, i label everything in sight too, also loved the cake making
Thank you xx
This is a wonderful idea I love all your videos but especially the cooking & craft very inspirational 😊more please ❤x
Thank you! Will do! xx
Loved this vlog Helen, so relaxing watching you work with your cutout stencils.Going to make a pudding now as you have inspired me 🎂.Great cake for Hattie 🏊♀️xx.
Thanks so much 😊 xx
Please do more of these videos, Helen. They are great! Xx
More to come! xx

Thank you xx
Talented lady. Enjoyed this. Encouraging us all. Xx
Thank you so much! xx
👏👏👏👏gorgeous cake Helen. Thanks for the video
My pleasure xx
Where is the birthday cake ? I somehow missed it 😩
I also shop Costco - didn’t realize they were in Europe also - mainly for paper products- i agree on new- news - freezing heavy cream👏🏻 cricut machine great but with 3 sewing machines, one being embroidery, so, was strong and resisted cricut!lol. Hattie - Happy Birthday - our little treat box opener - you and your brother make it so enjoyable!! Fun video! Back to sewing - making a baby quilt for gift so, have to get caught up!!❤️
Gosh, you sound busy.
Thank you xx
Lol. I was saying ‘Helen, the O, the O’ 😂😂 great video. I’m still exploring my Cricut too. Nifty piece of kit xx
Haha, when I watched it back it was staring me in the face!! haha xx
Hi 👋 Helen you are such a talented lady I think I need one of them machine 😊
Thanks so much 😊 xx
I love the cooking and home stuff much more than the clothes! I will watch anything you do though because you're funny and I like you. haha. I really enjoyed the Christmas cooking ahead stuff too. xx
Wow, thank you! xx
Grandma’s cakes are always special x
Hopefully! xx
That was a lovely change, not that I don’t enjoy all your videos. Mostly people just want to have the videos like a visit with a friend anyway. Thanks , have a nice weekend🙋🏼♀️
Thank you very much xx
Hi helen you did a fab job on the cake & i would love cricut after seeing you do those few crafts xx
I'll use my 'Joy' machine next time. It's smaller and adequate for most jobs xx
Love all your videos but love this new one youve defiantly inspired me to bake 😊 would love to see your garden it looks beautiful 🌿 thanks for all your hard work 😊 xx
That's great, thank you. I'll do a garden tour at some point xx

Thank you! Will do! xx
really enjoyable to watch Helen, good job…
Glad you enjoyed it xx
Hi Helen, like this video and board turned out well.
If you get application/transfer tape , it’s low tack for vinyl transfer. Also pop the vinyl face down and peel the vinyl backing off the app paper instead of the other way about. Look forward to more.
Thank you xx
We’ll done Helen- right up my street 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Lovely, thank you xx
Love the new topics you’re doing! Beautiful cake X
Thank you xx
You show such patience. I am in awe! haha.......
Haha, thank you Sassy xx
