I hope you enjoyed the season finale on The Daily Connoisseur. Thank you watching and supporting my channel... I appreciate you! I'll see you in September with all new videos. Until then... Love, Jennifer
That was a beautiful video. Also regarding the members video this weekend, I can't seem to access the ability to post a question (I am a member).
@@debbienomura818 You should be able to leave a comment in the community tab post.
What do you mean Season finale?
@@saramartinez103 it sounds like she’s taking a couple of weeks off, so that was the last one for the summer. 🍓
@@solacescalicocritters7256 thank you 🥰
Making strawberry pie in a white dress… PRO STATUS.
No kidding! I would have been wearing several strawberries before the end of tea time!
I'd fall down at the eating stage too :)
In a HALF apron?!?! 🙃
Nothing wrong with being confident!
I could never
Homemaking is an art - our grandmothers generation knew this. All girls used to do home economics, even though by high school in my generation (80's), it was for just one year unless you chose to carry on. Thank you for showing a new generation the beauty of homemaking, so much has been lost.
Home economics at school was bc parents stopped teaching it.
@Raven...I highly agree with you. With more women having to work home economics got kicked to the curb. I'm trying to show my 10 yr old granddaughter about homemaking and she wants no part of it. Just wants Iphone, Ipad and all that type of thing. It's very sad to see young people not having interests in homemaking and not making their own living. Lots of people just have it too easy nowadays.
@@cmstacy I find it a parents job, as well as grandparents to ensure a child knows how to cook, clean, and is informed of all things prior to the 18 birthday. A lot of highly irresponsible parent out there.
If you don't slow down enough, you miss the magic. What Jennifer has done is as simple as adding sugar to strawberries, but when done with intention and an eye of gratitude and beauty, it becomes a big affair. What some people in our culture may call "extra", or roll their eyes or mock, is really what so many hearts are yearning for. They hustle & rush so much that they can no longer find the joy in putting on a simple tablecloth, or putting a small bow in a basic ponytail.
Jennifer - you remind the everyday person that they can be elevated. And it isn't the china that does it, it is quiet while you read, the taste of the summer's fresh offerings, and the joy of giving others something to soften the blows of their day.
Thank you for sharing your art with us. It inspires and encourages me.
Your dining room is so beautiful with the bird wallpaper. Charmed that you called them your "pets". Simply captivating.
Enjoy your well-deserved break. We Connoisseurs will be patiently awaiting your return while we bake, clean, decorate, and simply delight in the everyday.
Thank you, Nadege! I'll still be there in The Chic Society. Zoom call is next!
I really appreciate your support for homemakers. Love this concept.
Thank you ♥️
Jennifer, first time posting. Your channel is a breath of fresh air for me especially when so many women put down the roles of home making and mothering. It is so important. Love you for this!
It’s best to cut rose stems underwater to avoid air bubbles in their stems. Also, if you remove any leaves under the water level you will prolong vase life. Beautiful video!
True... but sometimes it's too tedious. I change the water every day in the vase and I can get them to last for a week if not more...
That window of sunlight on your kitchen is magical
Such a satisfying window into the seasonal rhythms of your life. You bring such dignity to the life of a homemaker. Can’t we all live a more mindful life?
One of my favorite summertime treats is iced earl grey tea. You put two tea bags in a pot of water and steep. Then add a big fat gob of honey while the water is hot and stir in. When it cools, pour into a pitcher and add orange slices. Mmmmm. So refreshing in this humid weather. It is my go to summer tea.
The wallpaper goes well with the trellis pattern on the doors of the china cabinet. It reminds me of a little secret tea garden. Love it!
Have a nice break Jennifer! 🌷☕ We appreciate all you do. 💕
I also wanted to add something but I had a nagging toddler to see too first 🙃
When I heard the poem , I thought it had an Emily Dickinson ring to it. It is now one of my go to poems...it also rang a bell in my heart because it is 16th August , 2021 in the Gregorian Calender but also Shrawan 32, 2078 in the Hindu Calander. So today is the end of the month of Shrawan which is the hottest and sultriest month due to the heat ans the Monsoon rains. I ended a month long fasting, prayers and abstinence from meat, onion and garlic. Today is the day of Shiva and I ended my fast with prayers and then got to sorting the laundry with your poem ringing on my ears. How wonderful it was!❤🙏 a blessed end to Summer. Hope you have a wonderful break with your family, love n regards, Jwala from Sikkim, India, (Somewhere in the Himalayas) 🇮🇳
Thank you! A high compliment!
Hi Jennifer, You are the daughter I never had. When a person tastes a real homemade strawberry pie, they will never enjoy a bought fake one. Much love and appreciation from an old homemaker. Enjoy you break with family.
Strawberry pie is tricky...cook the strawberry sauce down a bit (3-5 min) before adding the corn starch and water. Stir it in with the berries before adding to crust. It will set quicker and more solid when cutting. Took me quite a few tries to finally get a well-set pie.
The recipe doesn’t say how much water to use to mix the cornstarch. Looked like quite a bit to me. How much do you use please?
@A Random Chick yes I know, but I had misread it 🤪. I made it to the recipe but wasn’t happy with it, disappointing. Thanks for response.
I desperately needed this; what an amazing video (so much more than a “video”) in every aspect. I’ve been feeling so assaulted with the obsessive and extremist content coming out of every news outlet lately that I’m becoming quite depressed by it. What a breath of very needed fresh air you are. I’m so proud to be a member of your community. 🥲
Thank you, Sandra ♥️
I share the same sentiments, Sandra. I feel guilty to even smile these days. Blessings!!!!!
Turn your notifications off and unlike content that you don't want to see. I was feeling the same way.
I refuse to watch anything except my subscriptions on RUclips like Jennufer. The level of hype is ridiculous and unnecessary! Sending you LOVE JOY and PEACE ❤
I feel you. Even on social media I.e., saw videos that had me in tears. This was relaxing and calming.
I love your talent for bringing class and elegance to your homemaking, Jennifer! And it doesn’t have to cost a lost, either. I know, for I have been a homemaker for 32 years now. I am blessed with a husband who has enabled me to be a stay at home mother for most of those years. And my husband has never had a skill or a high paying job, either. God has always provided, and we have always tried to make do, or do without. We haven’t always had things that we wanted, but God has helped us through and provided our needs. And we have 11 children, 4 of whom we are still raising. The most important thing is creating a LOVING and NUTURING environment, and the rest doesn’t matter so much. Even the most humble home can be a haven if those things are practiced. And even the most humble home can be made beautiful and cozy with a little creativity and ingenuity. There are tons of ideas on the internet, and there are tons of inexpensive things to be found at yard sales and thrift stores. For example, I found a couple of beautiful cut work tablecloths at an estate sale for a couple of bucks each. After I washed the stains out and ironed them, one of them covers my nightstand that my dear elderly neighbor gave me (it was part of her mother’s bedroom suite). It looks lovely and elegant. I will probably make a curtain out of the other one. I found a beautiful vintage Christmas tablecloth that perfectly fits my 8 foot plastic folding table from Walmart. We have mostly folding chairs for the table, and two wooden chairs that I picked up at an estate sale. We don’t have a lot of nice furniture, but I try to make the most of what I have. That is how our grandmothers used to do. Our society has really lost sight of thankfulness and gratefulness.
I loved the poem. You should publish a book with a collection of poems that reflect your take on life!
Thank you!
I agree! Delightful poem.
Wow! Was that Jennifer’s? I thought it was Robert Frost it was so delightful! 🌹
I absolutely love being a homemaker. I was never drawn to having an outside full time career or job. I find peace when I am taking care of my home. It really is a lost tradition now. I'm 26 and I get looked at funny when I'm asked what I do for work. I say, I'm a full-time homemaker! 😊 God blesses my husband and I so I can stay home.
I'm looking forward to the next season too- autumn is so lovely here in New England!🍁🍂🍃🌾
Karla here. You are such a neat cook! If I made a strawberry pie in a white dress it would end up being a white dress with red polka dots 😂even with an apron!! Great video!
How lovely the bouquets made were. You did a wonderful job, Jennifer. Love watching your videos which bring comfort and joy to my day.
Have a peacefull break-time! The dining room looks amazing, and the opening poem is just great! I love that You are sharing this side of Your writings with us. 💙💙
Thank you! ♥️
Decorating, yes! We planted a sunflower patch this year on our farm and I have been endulging in littering our home with them lately. The apples are coming in and we are busy canning in our kitchen...green beans, peaches with honey, spaghetti sauce, corn and jam. Filling the larder for winter is such a joy and brings such comfort. I've always struggled decorating around our home in August, but there truly are fun things that you can use to celebrate the harvest and the last "taste" of summer! Love your channel! Many blessings!
Thank you for this inspiring video. After learning about your ten-item wardrobe a few years ago, I committed to updating my wardrobe twice yearly, a task that I had previously left until everything was falling apart. I neglected to update my wardrobe last year, but today I pulled out all my current and past clothes. I was pleasantly surprised that I only need to purchase a few items! Unsurprisingly, the quality pieces that I purchased in the past are the ones that I don't have to replace. Cheaper garments either wear out after a season or two, or, worse, never end up truly working for me at all. Thank you for sharing your expertise with those of us who don't love clothes shopping! I can't tell you how much you've helped me.
So impressed that you kept that white dress clean!!!
Extraordinarily beautiful, what a calmly and enchanting video. Thank you Jennifer. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Enjoy your time with your family!!!
I didn't even think twice and just started to make a strawberry pie in the middle of watching this! Thank you! Desert will be much better tonight 🍓
How relaxing it was to watch you make that beautiful pie. And the Music is so soothing 😌
You are so well put together.
Simply Inspirational. Have a blessed break💝🙏
Thank you so much!
If you make sure that there are no leaves in the flower water, the beautiful bouquets will last longer. Wunderful wallpaper in the dining-room!
You make homemaking look like an art.
Jennifer is an old soul. Classy, elegant charm. A glimpse of time I long for in this fast pace world.
Gorgeous flowers. Another great home making skill. Flower arranging.
Lovely in white
Beautiful to watch on the middle of winter 🙂
Well that was just wonderful! I love you so much! Your dining room looks so amazing. I can't believe how much bigger...or more grand the room looks now, yet still light and airy. You must be so happy. Enjoy your break. You completely deserve it.
What a beautiful and soothing way to end the summer season.Your floral arrangements were so beautiful..in fact everything about this was serene and beautiful. Thank you for providing such gentle aspiration for us all.
Enjoy your well deserved break. It’s okay for me, I’ll just go back and rewatch your videos for the rest of august. 😊
Great plan! I will as well.
Wonderful video Jennifer. Everything was beautiful beyond description. How I love the gorgeous bow on your hair. We are so privileged to have you highlighting the pleasure of homemaking.
Enjoy your time away! God bless!
That opening poem made my heart soar.... so beautiful and captures the essence of August! 🌾🥀🍂🥧Is there no end to your talents? I want to cultivate my life skills as you do! 💖💖 I just received a bundle of 3 lovely, vintage, cotton aprons from Victorian Trading Co today. Something about aprons just makes me feel so much more efficient and productive as a homemaker. Like putting a motherhood uniform over the daily “uniform” we wear from our closet. I washed them and hung them up to dry. Thank you for your inspiration in everything you do! Watching your videos has made me such a better person and helped me access the joy of homemaking. 💖
Its so wonderful that you take such pleasure in your afternoon tea. You're very "English" 😀 you should be an English princess as you have all the elegance and style that one requires. I know, I'm English. Lol. Seriously that pie and tea combo looked divine. It just shows that you can eat all the things and be trim ,(with IF) it's worked for you so well. I hope you have a lively break jennifer but I look forward to your return. Your videos are very inspirational and beautiful. X thank you. 😊
The bouquets are stunning, Jennifer!!
Jennifer you are really good at writing poetry! Beautiful! You are such an inspiration!
What a stunning video. The brown bow in your hair is the ultimate finishing touch!! ❤️
Nice flower arrangements and I finally have a recipe for Strawberry pie! Thanks!🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓
So beautiful and serene. Love the flower arrangement and the pie looked Devine!
I absolutely LOVE the wallpapered dining room!
The flowers are lovely, a great florist and friend of mine gace me the following tip: to keep the flowers beautiful and fresh for longer you should never have any leaves below water.
Everything is just lovely… I love your china…the colors and patterns, and the clink of placing them just right in your cabinet🫖. Have a wonderful break! You deserve it!🌸
Stunning! Absolutely Stunning!!!
Love the generous pie portion.. my Kinda gal!
I loved this video! Just what I needed to calm my mind after a hard week both news and weather-wise. I am so looking forward to a cozy fall, and realizing I can make it cozy even in the heat and storms of August made me happy. Thanks, Jennifer.
I rarely comment as your other subscribers always seem to have said everything by the time I wake up to you. But I thought I would like to say thank you for all you do to make our lives that much more peaceful and beautiful. Enjoy your break, you deserve some time not holding a camera!
Thank you for another beautiful video! You sharing your gift blesses so many of us!
Thank you Jennifer
The poem was lovely, Jennifer.
I received a high compliment today. A classmate told me that I reminded them of you. Their praise meant more than I can say, as I look up to you. The time spent reading your books and watching this channel has helped me to reframe my mindset toward home making, homeschooling and even eating (I have adopted intermittent fasting) 1 Cor 10:31. Thank you for sharing light with the world. Matt 5:14
I needed to hear and see this. Your house is so inviting! That's the kind of house I want to have! I've been decluttering for a few years now after my depression. Having less stuff helped me a lot with my mindset. But with 2 kids and a husband who have a lot of stuff plus mine is cluttering my mind. This video helped me to continue doing what I want in life, an uncluttered inviting house that hugs every person that comes in our house. Thank you so much for sharing and inspiring us that homemaking can be fun too! Sending you love and hugs from Sweet home Alabama. ❤️❤️❤️
simple, lovely, sweet 💕✨ enjoy your break!
Once again a wonderful reminder of being thankful for being a homemaker. I enjoyed every part of your video, thank you and have a wonderful week. 🌺
This video is delightful and reminded me why I love being a homemaker! Enjoy your break; I look forward to seeing you again soon!
Dearest Jennifer, I really love your channel. You are so welcoming and serene. You are such a blessing to so many people, Jennifer! One of things that I think is so awesome, is your very unique way of gently drawing other people into your home and showing us how certain things can make such a huge difference. You never sound self-righteous or punitive and that is so refreshing! I've tried to watch some other channels from women who were teaching homemaking, but they sounded so harsh. I think that approach really turns a lot of people off because the world we live in is often harsh. I think you mentioned that you love homemaking and If I'm really honest with myself, I really only like the decorating part of homemaking. It's not that I don't clean, cook and organize. I have to do those things because it wouldn't be possible to enjoy decorating if the home is in constant disarray. My challenge is that I work about 50 hours a week and I'm trying to take better care of my home. I have every Wednesday off and I get every other Sunday off, but it's so difficult for me not to sleep in because I'm so tired. Your channel is the inspiration I need to continue doing the best that I can. I've always wanted to create a nurturing environment because home should be a sanctuary for those who live in it and it's very wonderful to have a place of respite that is clean, nicely decorated and above all, PEACEFUL. I love classical music and I'm a literature major, so my idea of a perfect hour or two would be to have tea with some type of cake or pastry and read poetry from the Romantic Era. However, I almost never have the time to indulge in those things. Still, I have to start somewhere on my journey toward a more elegant home and all I can do is pace myself and do the best that I can while I'm working on the rest of it. My favorite seasons are Fall and Winter because I love to decorate with lanterns. I have about 8 of them in various sizes, colors and shapes that I use in almost every room of the house. My husband loves it when we entertain for the holidays, but we haven't been able to do that for quite a long time. Right now I'm trying to look forward to cooler days and chilly evenings because we've adopted one very nice little ritual since the pandemic. We have a fire pit next to our covered patio and about 4 nights out of the week we go outside at dusk, light it and spend about 1.5 to 2.0 hours outside. I often bring dinner outside and our little female Shit-Zu joins us by sitting on her little puppy couch. This is my husband's favorite way to spend the evening and it is for me as well. It seems like you have mastered the art of HYGGE. Have you heard of the Danish word, HYGGE which roughly translates to "COZY"?
The wallpaper is gorgeous.
Endearing! 😊❤🙏🍓🫖
Enjoy your time away.. God bless.
Enjoy your break 👏🏾💚
Love all your videos but this one was especially nice. Home making is becoming a lost art. Bravo for keeping it alive!
I love all the sounds of homemaking😍 They are delightful and comforting. I remember as a child listening to the sound of my Mom working in the kitchen in the early morning.
Strawberry 🍓 pie 🥧 looks so pretty . Love wallpaper as well get choice .Have a lovely break
Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhh, August! What a lovely tribute and I love that strawberry pie! Always a joy to hear your calming, soothing thoughts as we navigate a world that too often dismisses the quiet moments like these that allow us to reconnect with God and with our souls. Thank you, Jennifer!
A beautiful and calming video. Thank you Jennifer.
Yes, I remember the strawberry tart story! I laughed when I read it and laughed again today because it's how my grandmother, Mémère, used to make her tarte aux pommes (apple tart), and my dad artfully arranges the potato slices for his pommes de terre aux gratin.
Thank you for your beautiful videos, books and inspiration, Jennifer! I find them so soothing. Lots of love.
Lovely video! How could anyone give a thumbs down?? Enjoy your break!
Lovely flower arrangements
You reminded me of a little girl playing in her toy China cabinet with her ponytail flowing in joy
How I envy your counter space! Your strawberry pie looks delicious 😋!
Whenever my motivation and inspiration for whole-hearted, finely-executed homemaking has waned, to the Daily Connoisseur I go. Thank you. Enjoy your well-deserved holiday.
Your dress is just SO Beautiful as is your whole outfit as way you put yourself together. Women are meant to be homemakers, but of course raising children is not done alone and communities, the husband, and extended family help when a mom needs help to rest, etc.
A little paradise 🌹🌺😘
Love your video, your pie, your dress. But the older I get, the more I want to hang on to summer. Winter is so hard!
Lovely video about the joys of August and the joys of tea. I hope you have a refreshing and peaceful break!!
I was relaxing when watching this. Your choice of music was so nice.
Enjoy your break! I will miss you 😘
Love the birds!!
This was such comfort to my soul. I love love love your videos. Dont ever change.
Beautiful🌿🌸 Enjoy your break.
What a lovely finale! I know I will watch it again and again. Thank you so much for your luscious strawberry pie receipe. Can't wait to try it out! Your dining room wall paper is beyond beautiful and makes your elegant dining room even more so. Enjoy your break, Jennifer. It is richly deserved.💕, Kate
Everything you do is so lovely Jennifer. Thank you for the pie recipe. Strawberry pie is my favorite dessert! Have a blessed day!
My News Years Resolution for 2021 was to embody more elegance. How beautiful to find this channel! TY for all the learning and inspiration!
Your hair bow is to elegant. 🥰
Can't wait to see you back doing Amazon Live . My favourite videos are where you are homemaking and baking together :) thank you for your work x
Thanks for the reminder to remain (or try to be) composed and classy. This advice has been helpful in these difficult times, especially when people are so strident in voicing their opinions. Enjoy your break xx
I loved everything about this video. But I just have to remark on your dining room- STUNNING!! The wallpaper looks fabulous and the flower arrangement adds just the right touch. Now, I’m off to add strawberries to my grocery list bc that pie looks delicious!
Oh, Jennifer! The wallpaper in your dining room looks so charming and beautiful! You give me so much inspiration to keep our home looking and running it's best. Thank you!
Love this video very classy and elegant , everything was so neat and perfect love the arrangement and the wall paper, and the pie looks delicious 😋, and perfect with the white dress very victorian atmosphere 😍
Thank you, Merary!
Have a nice break, goin to miss you
The wallpaper is so gorgeous and it highlights the size and height of the room. What beautiful tall slim windows too. Strawberry pie looks delicious, the pie crust itself so pretty too. I love decorating, doing the flowers, rearranging furniture, having tea. Lovely poem! I just noticed you’re getting up there close to 200,000 subscribers soon, congratulations!
Thank you for sharing this beautiful video, Jennifer!
Enjoy your break!
