    Hi Helen. I hope you have a really Happy Mother’s Day! Unfortunately,I’m not a baker,cook or seamstress but I do enjoy watching your ‘ at home with Helen’ videos.

    Thankyou Helen a nice little change for us tonight, will try the spec case as have a box full of little leftover fabrics. I'm busy sewing with two other ladies from my craft club, we're making 27 shopping bags to hang over the handles of wheelchairs in Lourdes. We think they would be handy for cajoules, water bottles etc, they are all in the same distinctive fabric and we're really pleased with how they are turning out. We've paid for this project out of money we raised through our xmas fayre. Thankyou for sharing your day with us all, luvnhugs Margaretx

    Hi Helen, As I am aging I am finding increasingly harder to get a good comfortable nights sleep. This is largely due to my pillows I believe. Whilst they are not cheap pillows I think one of these pillows may possibly help with a painful neck in the morning. Love how easy the butter method is and as I cannot have much salt this seems ideal. Thank you for sharing, enjoy your weekend. Take care xx

      I must have bought six or seven different types of pillow in the past year tina, but recently found out I have cervical spondylosis (wear and tear arthritis of the neck)! Since I started physiotherapy four months ago it's gradually starting to improve. I'm not saying don't try a different pillow - but perhaps not as many as I did!

    Helen, one of the reasons I like your videos is because although you're so talented and obviously good at interior design and craft work etc, you're so very normal and witty. I love to see the finished results of your at home vidoes doing things I wouldn’t have the patience for. Had to check our patio door was closed because your birds have a few relatives living in our trees just outside here in NI! All the best to Rob for his procedure.

    Hi Helen,I have made a lot of butter at the restaurants I have worked at from heavy cream that was about to go off,and I never found it necessary to put it in ice water,I just took it out of the Hobart,and squeezed it through cheese cloth,I don’t know if it makes a difference that I would be using about 10 quarts of cream at a time.Maybe a small amount gets too warm,and needs the ice.I also often have milk that is going off,so I make cheese,and the whey I freeze,and use when I make soup,I just love it in soup,so you could freeze it,and use for scones,or soup,you can make ricotta too,though I never have enough whey to make that practical.

    • @Helenmaryjo

    Ooh, lovely Saturday evening treat! I’m typing this mid-watch, so I might jump the gun. For those ‘of us of an age’ my best buy in pillows were investing in wool pillows. The moisture wicking, natural product has given me much better sleep. My next investment will be a wool duvet. Sounds counterintuitive as wool is known for its warmth, but trust me it make such a difference.

    • @AO-oy4rf
      @AO-oy4rf 20 дней назад +1

      Hi I recently bought a wool pillow too and am experimenting with different pillows as find it very hard to find one I like & so far very happy with the wool one too. Also was shocked at the cost of pillows nowadays (at least in NZ) some are very expensive but managed to get the wool one 60% off. I have had a wool duvet for years and years it is one that you can pull apart and join together for more warmth (effectively 2 duvets). The only thing is I find it a bit heavy but have had it for years and is still going strong.

However I’ve now discovered they are moving from every 6 weeks at £39.99 for 30ml to a monthly subscription/payment of £29.99 but for only 18ml which is a 25% increase in £ per ml. 😡
    Definitely not what I signed up for so I’ve cancelled my subscription. Such a shame as it’s a really lovely product.
