    I know Josie has hired help with her garden, BUT she is one of the few youtubers with a garden that actually gardens. She actually gets into the muck and knows her plants more and more as the years go by. Well done Josie!!

      I think all the influencers garden in their own gardens. It’s just that knowledge is gained over the years and some of the women I watch spend a lot of time doing so much else. Time is precious and influencers above all others have to juggle what’s important to themselves.

      @@beverleyabrown488 No not really. Many influencers flounce around and pick a flower or two, their greenhouses are more for show than function.

    We absolutely should treasure every day - and all the seasons have their own special beauty if we take the time to notice. Even a rainy day can be so beautiful and soothing if we are cosy inside and listening to the comforting sounds of the raindrops on the windows. I’m a Buddhist and for me mindfulness and staying in the present has helped me to get so much more joy and peace from the simple moments of day to day life. It’s all there to be enjoyed and treasured with the right mindset and a grateful heart 💗😊x

    Josie, if you place a piece of plastic film directly on top of the sorbet before freezing, you will keep the ice crystals to a minimum, allowing a smoother texture. Works great when making ice cream as well 😊

    I started embracing the start of the seasons when they "officially" start on the equinoxes/solstices 2 years ago, and the last two years have been bliss. No more rushing for the next thing and not wishing away the beauty we currently have. Fall is incredible, but I know when winter comes I will be kicking myself for not appreciating summer, so I don't see a point in wishing it away now. 🌞 Besides, early September always brings some sneaky hot flashes, which are downright terrible when you've already gotten out all of your sweaters. 🍃

    It was actually interesting to see your cleaning cupboard and I agree natural products don't have the oomph to get rid of limescale and stains. I like to see ordinary life as life is not all glam there is a lot of mundane and background work in every day for everyone unless you have servants.

    Like you I like brown mascara. I loved your talk on positive thinking and I can be that way and it is a boost to hear you have the same thoughts and as you say negativity creeps in and it can be difficult sometimes but I get busy and it gets better. Driving with my music on helps me as does gardening and clear outs and watching you and bloggers and writing or reading or learning about nutrition and health and I am fascinated by the brain and mental health.

    Learning about Botox more and nutrition at the same time I realized that our liver tries to get rid of it as soon as possible. And some cosmetologist say oh don’t do vitamin B complex after procedure, because it helps with liver detox functions. Which is so bizarre to think about. It is still a toxin. Of case some people do it to get a mussel tension relief and against migraines but there always good to look in nutrition for answers as well

    The only base I use is The Ordinary prevent lines serum and Nivea Factor 50 sun lotion every day and a bit of Rimmel concealer. I have keratosis on the end of my nose and am waiting for Dermatology to give me an appointment to dry ice it but it takes a year which is quite distressing when you have lesions on the end of your nose. Sun damage has a lot to answer to and I hide the area with make up but it is constantly changing and not easy mentally to deal with.
