River apathetically letting the rhubarb fall to the ground is such a mood. 😂 When did she get so big?!? I'm so glad to hear your feeling better. Thank you so much for the wholesome content as always. It's a much needed distraction from all the madness
I think this is my favourite vlog yet! Wholesome cooking, reality checks, pretty River dresses and toddler sass. Without forgetting the epic bathroom clear out!
Don’t usually comment but had to just say that fleur your videos are literally the only thing getting me through quarantine I wish they were longer haha!! And glad that you’re feeling better!!
I laughed so hard when you asked "What should we cook with the rhubarb, Riv?" and she's just dropped them all on the grass and is eyeing them unenthusiastically - way too cute!
What we do with leftover focaccia is we cut it into squares then freeze it! When we want it we’ll heat it in the toaster or the oven and it still tastes super good! Highly recommend :)
These vlogs are so refreshing, i love seeing your day to day life, specially now that we are dealing with lockdown. Loved Rivers energy haha. Stay safe Fleur! xx
So glad to see you using rhubarb, it freezes really well in case you didn’t know that, great for pies...strawberry rhubarb is the best....I stew mine so it’s still chunky and then have it with French vanilla yogurt....yummy.......love Rivers two new dresses......at least you are having some summer Fleur it’s been cool and rainy here, although today is sunny and about 50.........I haven’t worn anything even remotely summery yet.....have a great week........Donna in Toronto
You're foccacia turned out perfectly. I used to live in Italy and that is exactly what classic foccacia should look like. It shouldn't rise more than that and isn't supposed to be spongy... if it is it may be delicious, but I wouldn't considering actual foccacia. You're family is so lovely. Stay safe!
I never comment really but I have to say: I love your vlogs! Love that you’re eating plantbased and the workout bits as well as the cooking bits. Also you are gorgeous and River the cutest! x
I so look forward to your uploads! This one I timed perfectly to watch with my afternoon tea and a cashew cookie I made following your recipe - perfection! I'm so glad you are feeling better, Fleur!
I've been watching you since you were in college, oh my, it's amazing to see you now with your little one. I hope you are feeling much better, sending you all lots of love
River is absolutely adorable! I enjoy your family vlogs so so much! I came back to this video like five times though because my baby keeps waking up whenever I get back to it 😂
Getting so inspired by your cooking. Loving these vlogs! I usually make stewed Rhubarb. Just chop it and put it in a pot with sugar and water. Then you can put with yogurt or oatmeal or eat it plain.
My great aunt had a rhubarb plant in her garden - she used to pull a piece out and give it to us raw with a tumbler full of sugar to dip it in! I didn't have it cooked til I was probably a teenager.
Hi Fleur, could you and Mike do a review video on the Peleton bike, regarding the bike itself and membership and how it all works, my husband and I like the sound of it.
Rhubarb crumble!! 👌👌👌(with apples is good too) Also, when I made houmous I used the aquafaba to make chocolate mousse- not quite got it perfect yet but you just whip it up and fold in melted dark chocolate. Lastly, River is bloody adorable!
My goodness, I just beam all the way through these wonderful weekend vlogs, great to see you feeling back to normal Fleur. You were right nothing much changed in the 7pm "Announcement". Very satisfying bathroom cupboard tidying, just curious - could River reach those mini products, did you have to do some more re-arranging 🤣🧡🥰
This from California: Do not put unripe avocados in the refrigerator. Place them with bananas (their gas ripens avocados). Once ripe if you need to keep them a day then place in the fridge.
oh fleur really enjoyed this you have a wonderful infectious laugh and you and mike are great and very natural, love little river shes beautiful .. take care all xxxx
Stewed rhubarb in overnight oats or in yoghurt 😊 been loving the quarantine vlogs! I haven't been a regular fewer until now just popped in every few months...ive been vegan for 5 years now so love seeing your food!
I love strawberry rhubarb crumble or pie. I also like to cook it down on the stove with sugar then freeze into cubes then add them to sparkling water or club soda to make a home made soft drink!
Rhubarb pineapple ginger jam is incredibly good - I love making it to use up some of the greener rhubarb from the garden. The pink stuff has such a great flavour though. Top tip: don't waste the white bit right at the root, it's the best and most flavoursome bit!
River in this whole video (and always) is the CUTEST oh my!!!😍😍😍 also i know you probably just threw your hair up in a bun on the sunday morning (around 13:30) but it looks GORGEOUS fleur!
loved your vlog as usual. I've been making rosemary, garlic and chilli focaccia for the last few weeks to social distance drop off at friends' houses. If you wrap it up in a kitchen towel it will keep for 4 days or until you finish it (which in our house is usually a couple of days :) )
I love the hope earings. The joys of little girls, yesterday I had a Dior lipliner almost full size, today looked in my makeup drawer and it’s been sharpened to within an inch of its life!
I’ve been trying out mindful chef for the last 2 weeks after watching your vlogs, I’ve been really impressed with it. I love how you get all the recipes for that week so you can still try the meals you didn’t choose 😋
My mum always used to make rhubarb crumble. Or with puff pastry put that with some jam (a little cream can be dairy free) and then put the rhubarb onto the pastry and cook it becomes a bit like a tart it’s really yummy! X
i’m watching this at 9pm (my dinner time lol) and i’m feeling so unoriginal, you lunches and dinners look amazing and i’m literally eating a grilled cheese, which i eat almost every night for dinner LOL
Love Rivers new dress they are Gorgeous 🥰 Yum yum Rubbarb crumble Really. Like your shelves you put up in cupboard. Aww the baby mice are so cute 😍.. Great video .
Rhubarb, sugar, cook to a pulp, let it cool and add the pulp into a container and place in the fridge. Take some of the pulp and place in a glass, add ice, sparkling water and maybe a little gin! A wonderfully refreshing drink, yummy x
Fleur, The daisies are actually a weed. 😂 I only know this because my Brother is a horticultural specialist. They are so pretty! You could make daisy chains with River 💛
my parents have rhubarb in their garden so my mom usually makes rhubarb pie. I usually make rhubarb chutney or some kind of baked thing like rhubarb and cardamon muffins with whipped cream and rhubarb sauce :)
Nice vlog, hope you are feeling okay Fleur, we might have had it too. In February we were in South Carolina at Myrtle Beach, Nikolas got sick then we did. Sick too for about 5 days (horrible thought it was bad bronchitis). The focaccia looks good. My Dad was Italian. Mom learned to make sauce from scratch, really good. Rhubarb we use in yogurt with strawberries, Yum. River is getting bigger, so cute. We love Piglet and Squidge. Stay well! Joan Bates
You more than likely did,I had it and didn't have a cough,the Dr that passed it to me didn't have a cough either (I work in a gp practice so we got tested)it was like a flu for me and I got tonsilitis at the same time,was feeling very sorry for myself
Rhubarb crumble... stew the rhubarb with a splash of port and some stem ginger...oat crumble topping...lashings of custard and cream.....soooooo good. Xxx
Rhubarb crisp is my favorite! I always make the crumble with a lot of oats. I also chop up and freeze a bunch, that way I can use it year round. I like to make some rhubarb preserves, also, mixing it in yogurt is delicious! I've been experimenting with monk fruit in place of sugar, it's been good so far!
Make croutons with your left over focaccia -store in freezer! Rhubarb pie - my absolute favorite. Unheard of here in the US unless it's with strawberries, which totally ruins the rhubarb! Just stewed with a little honey, over yogurt or ice cream, or with custard. Love the stewed compote with pork (sorry!). Rhubarb ice cream is also divine.
I am so glad you are feel better!! What I really want to know is if Riv could reach the shelf or not!! LOL! I would of never thought the little serum type jars would look appealing, but it totally makes sense as a bottle for a baby doll. Also, I have had rhubarb as both jam and as a pie, rhubarb/strawberry pie. So fantastic, yum!
I just discovered rhubarb syrup. I made some for easter to mix with sparkling water and it is super delicous! The recipe I did was in the Thermomix, so you just put 500g of rhubarb (washed and in slices), 300g of water, 150g of sugar (I took 100g of normal sugar and 40g of vanilla sugar) and 30g of lemonjuice in the thermomix and cook it at 90°C at level 1 for 20 minutes and put it through a sieve into sterilized bottles. Suuuuuper tasty with sparkeling water and ice cubes! 🥰😍
Rhubarb is nice with berries, any berries. Especially strawberries. Strawberry rhubarb jam is a staple at my house! When I was a kid, I would eat it out of the garden dipped in sugar! xD It was like celery that tasted like sour candy!
Love rhubarb crumble or putting it in porridge. Not sure if you still eat honey or not but I find you can sweeten it with a small amount of honey rather than a lot of sugar.
I moved a short while ago and had to relearn gas stove and oven. After nearly killing us all, I did too, learn that the oven gloves (like your grill ones) are the way to go. 🤣
Hello all the way from Poland 🇵🇱 rhubarb is very popular in here and delicious in many receipts.. funny enough I’ve just made a compote yesterday and added some with mint and last year frozen cranberries- super refreshing and my hubby loovvess it ( make a fresh one every day ).... another idea is a superb easy cake - similar to your focaccia but you put pieces of rhubarb at the top ( might add other fruits/brown sugar/honey etc) super easy and delicious with some cream mmm 😋 x
I like rhubarb soup with flour dumplings (warm or cold), fruitcake like you would do with Apples (with crumbles) and compott with strawberry for porridge
Rhubarb is my absolute favourite and my garden isn't big enough to grow it. Luckily I have friends and family that are able to supply me with some. I made Rhubarb Curd last week. It was delicious. Loving all the rhubarb related comments which are giving me some new ideas to try out with the next batch that comes my way.
Plain flour doesn't have the same protein levels as bread flour, which is why you haven't got the same rise as the protein will help with the structure. Still looks yum though 😋
I know you can’t really show your garden for privacy reasons, but I wish we could fully see it in all its glory! From what I can tell, it’s epic 🙌🏼🙌🏼
River apathetically letting the rhubarb fall to the ground is such a mood. 😂 When did she get so big?!?

We always keep the avocado's outside of the fridge. This way they wil ripe faster!!
In a paper bag too!
Same!
What we do with leftover focaccia is we cut it into squares then freeze it! When we want it we’ll heat it in the toaster or the oven and it still tastes super good! Highly recommend :)
These vlogs are so refreshing, i love seeing your day to day life, specially now that we are dealing with lockdown. Loved Rivers energy haha. Stay safe Fleur! xx
Rhubarb crumble with custard would defiitely recommend.
My husband made me that for Mother's Day :)
Your garden looks so beautiful. I would love a tour of it!

Wow River is adorable!! "Peek-a-boo" so cute!
River is a mini Fleur with all the clothing ❤️☺️ so cute. I’m glad you’re feeling better as well. Lovely vlog during quarantine as always x

When I was little I used to grab my moms face cream jars empty them out and use them for my Barbie shoes. My mom still bring it up any chance she can.
Is strawberry rhubarb pie just an American thing? Because that's my recommendation!
I was just about to say that! The best!!
Adequate Adult I just made strawberry rhubarb jam 😍
I was going to suggest this, too; my favorite!
Wash the little bottles when empty and put them in a little basket on the lower shelf for River
River is absolutely adorable! I enjoy your family vlogs so so much! I came back to this video like five times though because my baby keeps waking up whenever I get back to it 😂

1917 is AMAZING, isn’t it??! 💕 I love watching your little family, Fleur. Stay safe. Much love from L.A. ❤️
Reorganising cupboards is so soothing and satisfying!
Apple and rhubarb crumble is fab! Loving your lockdown vlogs, finding them super calming and relaxing
these vlogs are just how I know time is still happening, HOW is this the 8th one???
Love watching these vlogs, always have but even more so during lockdown.
Can always rely on Delia, her French onion soup and meringues are good, thanks for the cooking inspiration 🤩
I think it would be really cute and funny to do a video with River doing your makeup!! I love her personality and think it would be an awesome video!!
My goodness, I just beam all the way through these wonderful weekend vlogs, great to see you feeling back to normal Fleur. You were right nothing much changed in the 7pm "Announcement".

This from California: Do not put unripe avocados in the refrigerator. Place them with bananas (their gas ripens avocados). Once ripe if you need to keep them a day then place in the fridge.
I know, I just prefer keeping all our produce in the fridge, otherwise I put it in the panty then forget about it and it goes over 😂🙈
We always chop the rhubarb we cant use and freeze it in bags of about 2 cups so we can use it all winter!
oh fleur really enjoyed this you have a wonderful infectious laugh and you and mike are great and very natural, love little river shes beautiful .. take care all xxxx
Can you do a garden tour!?
Stewed rhubarb in overnight oats or in yoghurt 😊 been loving the quarantine vlogs! I haven't been a regular fewer until now just popped in every few months...ive been vegan for 5 years now so love seeing your food!

Your earrings are gorgeous Fleur - would love to know where they are all from! River is so so cute
Emma Grahame She linked them in the video’s description. 😊
I'd LOVE a theromix review! Do you also use it for stir frys and other kinds of cooking?
love that you have the recipe description on screen! :D
You could always cut it up and freeze it. Or make a rhubarb “lemonade”. We usually make jam and eat it on yogurt with müsli 😋
That focaccia looks awesome!!!! ❤️🤤
Beautiful FOCACCIA, it's perfect. From Italy!!
Rhubarb pineapple ginger jam is incredibly good - I love making it to use up some of the greener rhubarb from the garden. The pink stuff has such a great flavour though. Top tip: don't waste the white bit right at the root, it's the best and most flavoursome bit!

I made a rhubarb sorbet from an jamie oliver recipe last weekend and I really recommend that! It was easy to do, vegan and tasted super nice!
Fleur, The daisies are actually a weed. 😂 I only know this because my Brother is a horticultural specialist. They are so pretty! You could make daisy chains with River 💛
I personally love the rain! ❤️
my parents have rhubarb in their garden so my mom usually makes rhubarb pie. I usually make rhubarb chutney or some kind of baked thing like rhubarb and cardamon muffins with whipped cream and rhubarb sauce :)
Rhubarb pie is the best 🤤
ss9329 rhubarb and strawberry pie is so good also
Loving these weekend vlogs, I remember cutting things out of the Argos catalogue as a kid at christmas 😂

Lovely video again! I’d love to hear how your gardening is working out! I had no idea you grew so many vegetables and herbs!
Rhubarb clafoutis is my favorite way to use rhubarb (also not terribly unhealthy), but aside from that it’s always good in pies!
Rhubarb pie, Rhubarb sauce, rhubarb jam, strawberry rhubarb pie....so much yumminess
Rhubarb crumble muffins, stewed to top oats, or yogurt
Focaccia reheats really well in the oven! Slice and freeze it after it cools. It will be nearly as good for a week or two!
Make croutons with your left over focaccia -store in freezer! Rhubarb pie - my absolute favorite. Unheard of here in the US unless it's with strawberries, which totally ruins the rhubarb!

I have those same stadium shelves in my bathroom on our vanity, not gorgeous but ORGANIZED!!
Omg River is so blinkin cute 😍 xxx
I love rhubarb crumble, and rhubarb fools!! So delicious 💗
Love rhubarb crumble or putting it in porridge. Not sure if you still eat honey or not but I find you can sweeten it with a small amount of honey rather than a lot of sugar.
Apple and rhubarb crumble! I also make extra of the stewed apple and rhubarb to put in porridge 😍

Rhubarb cordial is really nice - my mum used to make it at home when we were kids. Mix with water for a sweet drink (or with alcohol....)
Your new found energy being vegan is very much evident! 💪💚
Absolutely love your kitchen
I like rhubarb soup with flour dumplings (warm or cold), fruitcake like you would do with Apples (with crumbles) and compott with strawberry for porridge
Make a jelly and add stewed rhubarb, quite a lot so that it is quite thick and then let it set...stunning with pouring cream🥰
