Hi Jael - I would suggest you coat the wood you will be using with termite or pest resistant oil in case there were some eggs embedded in the wood or to deter future terminate damage. We do that here in Canada. Good luck on your construction. Love the cookies.
Consider storing your timber with stones to weight down and reduce wharping. Also use spacers between logs for air- circulation. Finally, ensure your fundis treat that Eucalyptus prior to use All the best Hang in there!!
Hey Jael, we all wish we could finish the things we would like to do before the end of the year but it doesn't always happen, the year goes by so fast and sometimes there are other distractions we didn't plan for, so we deal with life according to our circumstances and most of all be grateful for life, once there is life there is hope everything falls into place.I enjoy watching you have your tea I am also a tea person, not everyone likes tea.Cost of living has gone up everywhere it's hard on most of us.Blessings and love to you, Lexie, and your parents.
So cute how Alex is helping you now in the kitchen with cooking and baking, learning for herself to be like her mum when she grows up. The cookies looked very delicious 😋❤
Thank you for the building project update, Jael. By the way, even this side in my country Botswana foodstuffs are now so expensive. It's lovely to see Lexie in this vlog. The cookies look so yummy. Blessed Sunday to you and Lexie.
What a lovely day in the Village --- cookies and tea look so heartwarming and inviting. 2024 will be a year of abundance for all. Thanks for the update on your home. The atmosphere in the Village is "Heavenly." Forever in love with your Village family life. Stay safe, healthy and energetic. ❤❤❤❤
Watching you on the big island of Hawai'i. Goods and groceries are always more expensive out here in the middle of the ocean, and sadly, the crazy inflation we've seen this past year has only increased costs. But it makes me that much more grateful we are completely solar powered here. I'd be wrecked if I had to come up with an ever increasing power bill every month (on top of everything else). I'm working on a raised garden bed design that will allow me to grow fresh greens without risk of contamination of slugs or rats (which can carry the deadly rat lung worm here). I hope to have it built and ready to plant by spring! Will really help to cut my grocery costs next year. Eat your yard! 🌱 Aloha!
Blessed Sunday Jael. A very peaceful day indeed. Rain is a blessing dear, your surroundings is fresh and green. Your cookies are well made and looks delicious and yummy 😋 😋
Just a suggestion, make sure the sawdust is dry otherwise it will grow mold and is bad for you and the chickens you plan to rear. Nice video as usual!!
Hijael, have qatch your fll interview with that lady, you were very honnest, i always love the bond with your girl, priceless moment, food look good, prices are up all over the word and wages aren't following up especially in uk,. Senegal my home country, is the most expensive in africa, i don't know how most families handle it
Hi dear, happy to see you... cost of living has gone through the roof,here in Jamaica. Cookies looks great... looking forward to seeing the roofing starts.
I stopped making New Years resolutions years ago because I could never keep them. I do wish for you to have your roof finished by the end of the year. Prices are up for everything all over the world. I have been taking inventory of what I need for my home and to purchase it before Christmas. What I have noticed the most is that coffee and olive oil have skyrocketed 😬!
Hi Jael, we don't have sugar here in Canada, the shelves are empty. The prices for groceries have doubled, I'm doing intentional grocery shopping or else I'm broke.
Good morning Jael, I trust you are well. I started following you most recently and can tell you that the inspiration i have gotten from you in various areas is quite immense. I would sincerely wish to have a one on one with you if you allow me. Warm Regards Audrey.
Fantabulous Jael! Was sharing with my mom about this young hard working lady in Kabondo😊You are an inspiration 🤗 She echoed the same sentiments about the economy in Kenya right now, stating , “nengo gik moko oidho” particularly groceries. May God bless and provide for His children🙏
Thank you for the update. I live in South Africa and the prices have more than doubled too. Bread and eggs have become a luxury. Times are tough😪,we have no rain, but we are having a heatwave . It is so 🔥🔥 am sweating when you drinking the hot tea. 🥵Thank you for the cookies recipe,i have to try them🍪
Jael, I so enjoy watching your videos. Well, I should say it gives me joy and sadness at the same time, because as far as I can remember, I have always wanted to move to the countryside. I have always dreamed of having my chickens, goats, cows, and lots of fruits and vegetables. I am in Florida, and I do have a large backyard, but it's not as your land. However, I am grateful for my blessings!! I have a few vegetables planted and some fruit trees. But I would love your land space. At this time, things here in America are getting worse. Rent, mortgage, car, and home insurance are up. Food and utilities as well. I bought this house in 2017, and since then, my taxes have gone up, and my home insurance went from $1,000 to 3,687 ( us dollars). I am retired, so my income stays the same. But by the grace of God, I am managing. So, I am waiting on God to lead me. I honestly want to go back to my native country or Africa, where my money can stretch. But it's up to my creator! I will go where he leads me. Have a pleasant week, Jael ❤
@@jaelofthevillage lol exactly, they commit to too many jobs at once! and getting one who has the expertise is difficult so inabidi unavumilia the lies 😂
Here in Atlanta, USA most things have doubled in price. Groceries, rents, house prices, utilities, insurance and taxes. We just have to tighten our belts. Cook more, eat in and eat out less. The younger generation are being priced out of the real estate buying market because of high prices and interest rates.
@@jaelofthevillage - no where to run to. Just have to change with the times. Many more of us will just have to do kitchen gardens who can. Live one day at a time.
@@jaelofthevillage would care later to show us how to plant pawpaw and care for them till they starts giving fruits? Like a little journey of pawpaw 2024.
Glad to see you back darling,hope u okay now. Well my 2023 bucketlist did not go as planned, but God rescheduled every single plan i had. It has been a year of deep soul- searching and restoration. And about the price inflation it is bad everywhere, but by God's Grace we are pushing on.
Hello Jael, 💐🧁 👈🏾 Something to cheer you up. Building your own home from the ground is a mammoth task, full of challenges as you go, and Sister, you are doing great and making steady progress. Believe in your dreams and God will make them come true. The issue of damaged timbers should have been anticipated by your Fundi! He should know not to store any wood directly on to the grass, not even for a day! Am glad you have rescued the majority of it. May I suggest if possible you have a building store? Wishing you continued strength and focus … and by God’s Grace in 2023 your build project will be a home🙏🏽
Thank you,Esther. It was actually my mistake. I took too long to deliver them at the site. The damage was minimal. Thanks for the well wishes, darling.
I thank God ,my son and i will be moving out of the landlord's place into our home before the year ends
Congratulations, Carol. I'm so happy for you. Anxiously waiting for my turn
Hi Jael - I would suggest you coat the wood you will be using with termite or pest resistant oil in case there were some eggs embedded in the wood or to deter future terminate damage. We do that here in Canada. Good luck on your construction. Love the cookies.
Thanks, Susan. Yes,we will have the wood treated. Blessings
Hello Jael of the Village. I love, love your videos, am always watching each and every one of them. Thanks for the good work 😊
Glad you like them! Thank you so much
God is great,,,am looking forward to start building my home next yr,,, atleast av bought apiece of land.youre always inspiring me ❤
Congratulations, darling. You're in track. Go go
You are humble and hardworking. Keep it up
Thank you,pretty. Bless you

Finally, ensure your fundis treat that Eucalyptus prior to use
All the best
Hang in there!!
Thanks,darling. They are going to be treated. ❤️

So cute how Alex is helping you now in the kitchen with cooking and baking, learning for herself to be like her mum when she grows up. The cookies looked very delicious 😋❤
They were so delicious. Lexi loves to cook though she's so afraid of the fire
@@jaelofthevillage aaha, Lexi and Alex, dummy me 🤦🏾♀️
Thank you for the building project update, Jael. By the way, even this side in my country Botswana foodstuffs are now so expensive. It's lovely to see Lexie in this vlog. The cookies look so yummy. Blessed Sunday to you and Lexie.
Looks like nowhere is affordable 😕. I'll hang in here. Hopefully things will get better
True my dear, nowhere is affordable. Hang in there Jael, it's all going to be alright.@@jaelofthevillage
I always get encouraged when ever I watch your video ❤

I enjoyed the video! Keep working on your goals. It’s worth the effort.
Thanks,darling. Giving up is not an option

Hello,hommie
Hijael, have qatch your fll interview with that lady, you were very honnest, i always love the bond with your girl, priceless moment, food look good, prices are up all over the word and wages aren't following up especially in uk,.
Senegal my home country, is the most expensive in africa, i don't know how most families handle it
Quite unfortunate state of affairs
My dearest sister am looking forward to start preparing for countryside life❤
❤️❤️I wish you all the best,dear
I will try the recipe, the cookies look so delicious.
They are. Try it
From Lynn, let me watch and learn
Nice to see you Jael

Wow! A real yummy ending today. Thanks dear.
You're welcome 😊
amazing video jael thanks for sharing
You're welcome darling. How are you?
The cookies look great. I like making popcorn when it is cold
Popcorn are great too for such seasons
Malawi cost of living has tripled, life is hard
Waiting very much to see the outcome of the roof.
❤️❤️
Everything is beautiful here 😍😍
Thank you,darling
Wow❤ you are really inspiring me to be baking
Please do,more so in this weather
Hi dear, happy to see you... cost of living has gone through the roof,here in Jamaica.
Cookies looks great... looking forward to seeing the roofing starts.
Things are thick everywhere it seems. Let's hope for a better tomorrow. The cookies were perfect for the weather. ❤️
I stopped making New Years resolutions years ago because I could never keep them. I do wish for you to have your roof finished by the end of the year.
Prices are up for everything all over the world. I have been taking inventory of what I need for my home and to purchase it before Christmas. What I have noticed the most is that coffee and olive oil have skyrocketed 😬!
Thank God, we are going to have a roof by the end of the week. On prices, I feel for many families I know who have no source of income.
True, we plan but God fulfills. It is well dear. He will fulfill the desires of your heart
When the time is right,I believe he will
Hi Jael, we don't have sugar here in Canada, the shelves are empty. The prices for groceries have doubled, I'm doing intentional grocery shopping or else I'm broke.
Oh no,what's happening?
Good morning Jael,
I trust you are well. I started following you most recently and can tell you that the inspiration i have gotten from you in various areas is quite immense.
I would sincerely wish to have a one on one with you if you allow me.

Oh,dear. Thank you so much. Regards to mum. Cost of living is getting crazier by day
Oo yes, you reminded me of FIFO, merchandizing aki...I envy you in a good way...thanks for the updates...retirement is so good
So peaceful down here. Thanks darling
Glad you are having a blast, will come for some farming tips@@jaelofthevillage
Another relaxing video. I think things are getting more expensive
Quite unfortunate
Thank you for the update. I live in South Africa and the prices have more than doubled too. Bread and eggs have become a luxury. Times are tough😪,we have no rain, but we are having a heatwave . It is so 🔥🔥 am sweating when you drinking the hot tea. 🥵Thank you for the cookies recipe,i have to try them🍪
So sorry about the heat. Be safe. The cookies are quite simple to make ,try them

You know you're welcome, darling.
Thank you for sharing
You're welcome 😊
Same here in the UK!
Quite unfortunate
God is in control!
Lovely love the tea time coxiness
Thank you,Jane
Yes Jael cost of living gone up everywhere, I live in North America we are feeling it.
So sad.
aki kenyan fundis and getting random emergencies!! that's exactly what mine said too and then disappeared for 2 weeks 🙃
😅😅 what to do. I think they have other contracts and must report to different sites. They should just tell the truth
@@jaelofthevillage lol exactly, they commit to too many jobs at once! and getting one who has the expertise is difficult so inabidi unavumilia the lies 😂
Hello Jael. You inspire me❤lots of love from kitale.
Thank you,Mary
Warm regards to Lexi
Good job Jael. Please link up measurements for cookie ingredients plz.
Sure. Check the description box

Oh no. Where do we run to
@@jaelofthevillage - no where to run to. Just have to change with the times. Many more of us will just have to do kitchen gardens who can. Live one day at a time.
Hello, while baking....try mixing ingredients using something wooden...
Sure. Thank you
Will the wood be treated to prevent termites before using for the roof
Yes,it will.
Groceries have become expensive in South Africa as well it’s frightening.
😢 looks like there's nowhere to hide
Jael great work on the construction may blessings follow you 2024 as you continue .whats the degrees for baking those yummy cookies?
160°C for 20minutes
I'm in Trinidad, and we have the same problem with rapidly increasing prices.
Quite unfortunate. Where do we run to?
I stopped buying bar soap. I find powder detergents for clothes much cheaper .
I use it for utensils
Shopping for Krissy, #MapemaNdioBest😁😁
😅 before the Nairobians flock the village
How old where those eucalyptus trees that were cut down?
They have been here for as long as I can remember
My dear, hauendi kwa 'I AM MARWA"? I think you should go. Anyway I love love love you contents.
Thank you. No dear. I'm not going.
@@jaelofthevillage would care later to show us how to plant pawpaw and care for them till they starts giving fruits? Like a little journey of pawpaw 2024.
Woyeee bording made her loss weight......
Yes,but she's gained a bit already.
Good evening Jael,
What is the name of the company that manufactured your solar flood light please?
Is it a sensor one too?
Yes,it has sensors. The brand is something like Velmax . It's in the video where I was installing it
Hi jael
Hi,Stevo. How are you?
In the UK is so hard now everything has doubled or more not easy……
Oh no. Looks like we just going to sit back and hope the situation improves. ❤️
Glad to see you back darling,hope u okay now. Well my 2023 bucketlist did not go as planned, but God rescheduled every single plan i had. It has been a year of deep soul- searching and restoration. And about the price inflation it is bad everywhere, but by God's Grace we are pushing on.
We hang in there. Hopefully, the situation will improve. Thank you for asking,I'm well,dear
❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤
It looks like things are going well. Things happen when they should, not necessarily when we want them to happen. Great video like normal
True,John. When the time is right,they happen. Thanks,darling
You are welcome
Cost of living its high every where even here in u.k.
😥
Try jamaa white bar soap. Ave done the same this month and it doesn't seem to diminish fast like menengai has been of late
I really appreciate these tips during this crazy times. I will definitely buy it.
Hey jael❤
Hi Millie ❤️
You are doing good gal keep it up👏👏👏
Colgate upside down imenifurahisha 😂😂

Hi Jeal, watching from London.
Love the village life.
Check out Mary Berry from England for more inspiration on baking.
Thank you. I love to watch people bake
Hi Jael, are you a married?
No. I'm very single 😅
You are such a beautiful woman, a lucky man is waiting out there.@@jaelofthevillage
