    I am a rain person. It has a very inspirational affect on me. Living in a desert arid climate, I don't see much rain, and so when it comes, it is a special event that I take great pleasure in. Rain is a beautifully spiritual natural element. The sound of rain is lovely because it is nature speaking to us; take the time to listen to it. ☔⛅😊

When my husband and I were dating years ago, we used to ride to the mountains not far from us (we both lived in the foothills) and it was almost magical to ride around in the rain atop the mountains. I'm really glad to know there are others who love the rain like I do. This morning it has been sleeting after having snowed last night. I don't mind that so long as I can stay inside. Diane in NC

    Greetings from a very snowy Southeastern CT. After 40 years of a busy, often tiring but always rewarding career as a registered nurse, I am now a homebody. I love it. I love to putter around my house, rearrange things, try new decorating ideas. I am in the process of making a quilt. I now have to be gluten free, so, I have enjoyed trying different recipes. I make a lot of soups this time of year. My favorites are Lentil and rice, potato and pasta fagioli (an Italian macaroni and bean soup). Wishing you many blessings from CT.

Sunday’s are my favorite day as I take the Sabbath seriously and just potter and play, watch a movie, cook something simple, walk the dog, work on a sewing project; or like today some embroidery. It will be a quiet, cold day of leisure 💕

    The quiet days are the most productive, for me it's nourishment for the soul. Our days here in Canada are short, grey and well below freezing with the sounds of arctic winds followed by the silent stillness of the snow falling...this is when the heat of the fireplace the kettle always filled with something warm and tasty fuel the days...lots of little projects get completed, closets are organized and time is used to reflect on the days behind and dream of the season to come.... Thank you for opening your home and extending its warmth.

When it's rainy or cold, I'm doing some macrame or reading or listening to the music or cooking and what I love most is taking care of my plants. I wish I could live in a greek island or village but, for the time being, I live in the city.

    Hello from Austria! My girlfriend and I spend a lot of time at home. We have a small flat in a castle and live there with our two dogs. We like living in the countryside and I love the daily long walks with the dogs over the nearby golf course. The last few weeks we have been able to trudge through the snow. The exercise in the winter air is good for us and at home we avoid any hustle and bustle. We lead a mainly secluded life and every now and then we have contact with relatives, friends or neighbours. Recently I had to say goodbye to my elderly father. I travelled to the funeral by night train and then met dear people I hadn't seen for a while. Although Dad is no longer with us, I felt blessed by the human closeness of the small funeral party.

    I think a lot of people get stuck in a place where they view things like cooking and cleaning as boring, tedious wastes of time. If and when you're able to shift your mindset and see those things instead as nourishing ways to care for yourself and your home, it can be life-changing. Traditionally these things used to be considered important, the keeping of a home, because it was where the family was centred, but somewhere along the way it got shoved aside as unimportant work that gets in the way of better things. I definitely felt some stress lift and some calmness settle in when I started looking at myself as the keeper or steward of the place where my family spends most of our time.

    I always watch your videos in the morning while I’m making my bed, washing my face, etc., and they’re just... perfect for those moments. And all of your videos really inspire me to change my view on the world. For example, this one really inspired me to appreciate the little tasks that are to be done every day in the house, and not to dread them. They (all the little tasks) give you some purpose, don’t they? :)

      Such a lovely message to read. It’s so true. It’s all about the little tasks. They are more important to notice than we really know.

    I love this video! I also have many little things to do or on the go around the cottage that slip in between the daily chores. This was such a balm for my soul right now when I can't be there. xo

    We just moved from a place that had snowy winters to a place that has lots of rain, I thought I would get very depressed with the rain and low clouds but I realize the green grass really is amazing plus when it rains it keeps us inside more so we do slow down. I love Indian cuisine, anything with curry all winter long is so warming to me. Thank you for your videos, I just love them, they help me get use to the rain😊

    Thanks for posting this. It has helped calm my brain down for a few minutes this morning. A much needed distraction. Plus it has given me the idea of drying and using mint for tea. My wife and I live on our small llama farm in central France and I feel we are not making the most out of what is around us. We still have the busy city in us I guess. After watching some Christmas videos I went out and made a holly wreath full of beautiful rich red berries and an incredible centre piece made from a curved piece of wood. I want to slowly get rid of man made Christmas decorations and use natural things instead. Thanks once again. I will now pour another coffee and enjoy another video before going out in the snow and giving my llamas more hay ❤️

    Puttering is like Valium to me...It's so true that it has no pressure attached to it. Right now we're in the midst of the a second snowfall in a week I love the cocooning effect it has on my household.

    Those kinds of days are my absolute favorite. I am a huge homebody- no where I'd rather be- well ok, maybe Ireland. Lol. It's my dream to visit there one day. I want to see Innish Bolin and Innish Airc. Well, actually I want to live there- in an old original off grid cottage. 😊 But anyway, being home, working on my homestead, baking, sewing, crafting, reading.... I've even come to love cleaning and just working on the atmosphere, because I know it is "bringing love into visibility" for my family. I think you might have helped me with cooking too. I like to cook- just not 3 times per day. 😆 BTW, I got my baskets with lids finally- love them!!!

    hello. Thank you for the pleasure and insight in sharing your life.
    I've been a student of human nature all my life, 75 years, but only recently come
    upon new info. I hadn't known about. Watching your video reminded me of it.
    This is what it says:"people are less apt to believe something unless they actually see it."
    You could have written a book only, in the place of the videos, and reading it alone, without viscerally seeing it,
    would not have the same affect. Brilliant!!! Thank you for the living example of how to do it, authentically.

    Another homebody here I love pottering around my home. I don't have a favourite food I enjoy cooking it really depends on my mood. I have some new cook books one Cuban and the other Spanish so Im looking forward to delving into those. It's summer here and it's raining it's a lovely cool morning much better than yesterday it was so hot and muggy Im really looking forward to winter.

    Hello from Bozeman, Montana U.S. It is really cold here, expecting -20 tomorrow. With the beautiful snow covered mountains and valley, it's a great time to dive into my love for cooking Asian food, tonight I made beef broccoli. We also love to putter around the house but it is especially enjoyable at the end of the day when I am tired to crawl into bed, yes with my laptop, and watch Fairyland Cottage. My favorite channel, so relaxing and inspiring! Please keep them coming🌸

    I loved this video Niamh, I'm in Canada, so I just watched it now. I'm a little jealous of your spring bulbs coming up in the soft rain. We're still knee deep in snow here in Georgian Bay and we still have minus temperatures, so spring bulbs are a long way off yet. But watching your videos always brings me a sense of peace and there's always something new to learn, like brown paper coverings on jar lids. Plus you can write on the lids instead of putting sticky labels on them. And I also love Indian food, so I will take advantage of the recipe. Thank you , and blessings to you from over the pond.
