Slow living isn’t a trend for me. It's a lifestyle I have embraced for years; I learned it from my mom and grandma. We always just took our time to enjoy the beauty of the everyday. I’m a romantic at heart, with a practical lifestyle approach to “keep it simple.” I grew up on a farm, which furthered my love of simplicity and back to the basics mindset.
We moved six months ago to our cozy cottage, and we are in the process of fixing it up. I strive to make our home cozy and inviting no matter what remodeling stage we are in. Making a home hygge and cozy is just a normal way of life for me, and I can’t imagine it any other way.

@@aleshiasterland460 🥰 thank you for even asking me. Have a blessed week!
I just wanted to tell u how much I enjoy watching and listening to ur videos, they are therapeutic for me when the day is a train wreck💖 In this day and age, people want it FAST, FASTER, FASTEST, get put out when it takes longer and the word patience is rarely used. I'm 60 yrs old and I'd have to say, I'm not built that way! While technology has been a blessing in certain circumstances, it has also made the kids 5 yrs (yep, a 5 yr old knows more about computers than I do, eek...) up to 25 yrs more impatient, less tolerant, quicker to judge instead of helping out. It feels like it's a (me, me, me) world and I'm sad for what we've lost. No, not all in the age groups I mentioned are like this. It seems to me that the kids being homeschooled today, are nicer, caring, willing to give a helping hand, etc...and just because they are homeschooled doesn't mean they don't socialize, play sports, go to the movies, etc...they just seem to me to have a calmer demeanor. I really miss the good old days, the 70's thru the end of the 90's!! So, with all that said, thank u for making awesome, calm and sweet videos!! Alaska in the house!!
May the path u follow in life be overflowing with peace and kindness!! (written and created by Cheryl Gudde)
May u be blessed with awesome days, good food, good friends and so much love and kindness💖💖💖💖
Awww, I'm so glad to hear that!
Happy Spring everyone.

You have a Calming Voice Abby Jo that’s for sharing 3-31-2023❤
Awww thank you 😊
I love the way your sitting room turned out, Welcome Spring!😊
Thank you, it feels ready for spring now 💕

Thank you sweet lady! Happy Spring to you 💕💐💕💐
Lovely ❤ I seeped up a cup of my homegrown winter blend tea and served myself a homemade pumpkin cupcake to watch your video. My heart is, Oh, so very happy! Thank you for inspiring us to live beautiful lives!
That sounds like a wonderful tea break 🥰 I’m so glad this video resonated with your heart ❤️
Abby, I love love love your living room.. The blue chairs look so so wonderful by the fireplace. My living room is early attic, lol . Most of my furniture came from my grandmother or other family members. It reminds me of slow living and I just love the old furniture. Your living room is so beautiful and restful.
Thank you so much!
Absolutely gorgeous living room
Thank you, I love this cozy area❤️
The London Fog sounds delicious!
It’s a favorite at our home 😊
I really enjoyed this video, Abby Jo! The sitting room looks lovely, and the cake is beautiful. I was surprised and delighted to see the Mateus bottle with the candle in it. When I was a girl in the early 1970s, these bottles were so popular as candle holders. Seeing it brought instant delight to my soul.
Awww 🥰 thank you. I found that wine bottle at a thrift shop and thought this would make a romantic candle holder. I had no idea that it was a popular candle holder in the day ❤️
@@ForgottenWayFarms I'm happy to share that with you, then! I don't think they use this bottle anymore, and it's so beautiful.
It made me smile to see the Mateus wine bottle. My mom's friend's husband was a chef and always served Mateus wine. We always had empty bottles around. I was just thinking of those recently and then I saw your bottle.😊
That is awesome! I found that one and thought this would be a great candle holder :)
Got my cookbook today. It's awesome, Abby Jo. You ladies did a great job. Would you ever consider doing a day in your life. It would be great to see what a day entails for you and the family. Blessings and thanks for an amazing book!!
Awww, so glad to hear that :) I would love to do one sometime! I have a list of videos I'm working on with hubby for the month of April, but i will write it down as an idea! Blessings, Abby Jo
Inspirational thank you. I love being inspired by others.
You are so welcome!
We recently got new flooring and needed baseboards. We went to an architectural salvage store and got a whole house full of baseboard for half the price of new. We just had to sand it down and repaint it all. It turned out better than we anticipated.
What a bargain! Good for you 😊
I do love London Fog! ❤
Beautiful cake
Me too, so good!
Happy Spring, Abby! So love seeing your beautiful home and hearing your sweet,calming voice.
Happy Spring to you! 💐💕☺️
That cake looks yummy! I love the way you decorated your room, nice and cozy! Blessings.
Thank you, I love cozy!
Another beautiful video! I so look forward to each one.
Thank you 😊 I appreciate that!
You look so nice in the brown sweater. Thank you for the inspiration. I’m in a funk with this weather and endless old house projects. My sister in the soo just went ice fishing this week!
Awww 🥰 thank you! It’s that time of year where you can feel spring is just around the corner, yet it’s still dumping snow. Hang in there ❤️
Beautiful video! I adore your sitting room and love to see all your vintage art hanging on the walls. I get inspired by your style! Thanks for the cake recipe…I’ll try it out for sure! ❤️
Thank you so much! I love my gallery wall, it makes the sitting room feel special to me.
I absolutely enjoyed watching this clip Abby-Jo ❤️As it’s nearing the end of Spring here in the SH I did a declutter, thorough clean, rearranged furniture and I took down all the greenery I had up too a few weeks back. Spring time definitely makes you want to get things done hey 😉
Awww, thank you! Yes, it does :)
Hi Abby Jo. The room looks perfect and the cake, beautiful. I really enjoyed this video. 😊
Thanks so much! 😊
Hi Abby. I loved the cake holder you have. It's so unique.
Thanks, I’ve had it for a long time. ❤️

Lovely home, I just found your channel. I too love the slow living theory. The cake looked so simple but yet so elegant.
Thank you, welcome to our channel ❤️😊
The cake looks delicious! ❤
Thank you. It's a simple cake, but very tasty!
Enjoyed watching you all work together as a team. That’s how it was in my house growing up and when my children were young. It’s just my husband and I now but he helps out. The cake sounds delicious although I will admit that I mostly only care for strawberries, peaches or grapes. I almost never want or crave anything sweet ( only coffee creamer) I always crave potatoes, all the time since my bone marrow transplants. ~ Janet 😘
Awww 🥰 I love working as a family! So wonderful you ran your household the same way ❤️ I love potatoes, but I think that’s because I’m Norwegian 😂🥔❤️
Thank you for sharing your vedio. It was relaxing to watch you and your hubby work together. You cake looks so yummy. Love everything in your cozy home!❤😊
I’m so glad you enjoyed the video 🥰

Have you heard of forgotten harvest farms in Detroit ? They are on RUclips . They have volunteers to take care of the farm and they donate the produce.
No, I haven't, will have to check them out :)

Another amazing video Abby Jo. I am ordering your cookbook on Friday. I am so excited. The lemon curd has been amazing. I frozen the other lemons to try putting in a roasted chicken. Quick questions. Can frozen lemons be used to make more Lemon Curb. Blessings from Ontario Canada!!
Thank you 🥰 I am so glad you like the lemon curd! I have never used the frozen lemons for lemon curd, but I don’t see why not. ❤️
😍😍😍
