Just realized that the Pyrex bowls I used for Thanksgiving meals are between 68-70 years old. Things all through my life, (and even my daily routine, not just Holiday or special occasions), represent scores of years and people and conversations,and memories that cross generations.
Lol! I use vintage Pyrex bowls that my mom had, too. I use vintage Tupperware, Corning Ware, Revere cooking pots with the copper bottoms, etc. I find it amazing that after 46 years of marriage, I'm finding things I got at my bridal shower in antique stores.
I love what you said about books! I have a room I call my "library" even though it is really only six bookcases. Most of them are filled with cook books! It does not make me a fabulous cook by any means, but I do enjoy the stories behind the recipes. I love the pictures, I love holding the book, and some even have their own wonderful smell! (I think it is the ink!) I just am so glad that I found your videos, because they put me in a real cozy mood. Light a candle, put on a cd, make a cup of tea, snuggle in a super plush blanket, read or watch the snow fall. You promote peace and I am so grateful for that, so thanks!
I love what you’re doing on your channel and the world needs a lot more of it! Every single thing you said resonated with me-thank you and God Bless you💕
I just finished hsnd writing 48 handmade Christmas cards. Intentional. I do not have tv. I would rather read. I journal. And I would be perfectly happy and comfortable at the turn of the century...circa 1900.
I just sent two hand written Thank You notes yesterday. I agree that there is something special about hand written notes sent via the mail. Love your channel.
Thank you Lisa. My love and I would sit over a pot of tea each afternoon. We would either just be together, or have the most amazing conversations - after 33 years together, we still had so much to share. He passed into the care of our Lord two months ago, needless to say I am bereft and adrift. Your message today made me sit up and realise, I can still do this. Life moves on, and I can still chat with him when I have my cuppa! I'll become the crazy lady talking to "herself" each afternoon. Gosh, I do remember the crackle of needle on vinyl. Funny how we can instantly recall that sound. 🙂Many Blessings to you and yours.
I’m so sorry for your loss - I can’t imagine how you must feel with things being still so raw...thanks for sharing your sweet memory of sharing a pot of tea :)
May the Lord bless you & keep you during this season of your life. I pray that the memories will be a warm hug as you become the "blessed lady with wonderful memories" that talks to herself each afternoon! Sending a virtual hug as you leave your Love into the care of our Lord.
Lisa, I have enjoyed this video immensely. Probably one of the best videos I feel I’ve watched yours. And it’s funny you mention the letter writing because just recently I purchased on eBay an old lab desk, purchased some stationary, and I’ve began writing letters in the evening. Love your suggestions. Blessings to you and yours and look forward to the next one.
I much prefer holding a book in my hands to read but the drawback is that my eyes aren't as good as they used to be so many books are difficult to see properly to read properly.
I understand what you are experiencing. Reading has been part of my life since I was a little girl. I, too, have vision problems and reading has become a struggle. May I offer some suggestions that have worked for me. Your local library can help you in so many ways. There are books written in larger print. If your library is part of a larger community of libraries, books can be borrowed from other libraries. These books can be sent to your local library, free of charge. Speak with your eye doctor, your prescription eye glasses may need to be changed or updated. This is an expense but I purchased a magnifying screen. There are several options and types available. Having a good reading light is extremely helpful. I like to keep my reading area cozy with soft lighting. Having a reading lamp using the correct light bulbs can alleviate eye strain. I also found some non profit organizations (Reading for the Blind) ; that can help with supplying some of these resources. Don’t give up! Ask and you shall receive.
Just look at her. You can see it in her eyes. A good soul. I wish I had a friend like her. My cat and hers would play together while we chatted over a delicious Italian meal (and they would get lots of treats too, of course!). (Italian here)
Oh, I forgot to say that we have our youngest son over for dinner once a week and we play games together. He usually wins but it's still fun, and it's nice being friends with our grown children.
Thank you so much for this trip through memory lane and the reminders to slow down and bring back some of those sweet items and events that we grew up with. Keeping grounded and connected is what life is all about. Beautiful suggestions , especially around holiday season when everything spirals and we seem to lose sight of what really matters. Love your videos. I appreciate you!
Hi Lisa, I love all the things you talked about. My home has many book in it. I never read an on line book. It’s just not the same. I wish this world could just slow down. My husband has a Hugh collection of vinyls. Every thing you talk about rings true to the heart. ❤️. Thanks for sharing all the things you do. BTW you look lovely
Great video Lisa, thanks so much for sharing. I honestly had forgotten about letter writing. It was a only way to communicate except a phone call, and much cheaper.❤️
I enjoy all your videos but my favourites are the ones with life tips like this one. You are a lovely woman. Thank you for sharing your heart - your segments are so uplifting. I visit my son on Vancouver Island a few times a year (I am a Canadian living in Atlanta) so I know the beauty of your surroundings and your own beauty shines through in that backdrop. God bless you and your family this Christmas - you are a bright spot in the lives of your viewers.
Thank you for your kind words, Lisa...How nice to have a family member to visit on the Island! I hear Atlanta is beautiful as well...thanks so much for your visit :)
Lovely positive reflections on things from the past, many of them I still do and enjoy today, my children do also! Records, books, reading, old fashion ides! Thank you for the nostalgia! ❤😊
This video is so true. I’ve held onto hand written cards and letters since my youth, and I treasure them. It’s so meaningful to re read them, especially when they’re written by family members who have passed on. Nothing can compare to that special memory ❤
Wow and wow, God bless you, sweet friend Lisa, for this valuable video with great reminders. You are a beautiful person, inside out, and I am thankful to you and to all you say. Blessed with the people around me, and very thankful, including you. Reading, is a must for me daily, especially the Bible. Thank you , for all you do, and bye for now. 🙏👍🥰❤️✝️🍁🍂🐿️
Although I haven't written a letter in quite a while, I love writing a note in a card and sending it to those I love. I have a few records from when I bought them many years ago and I love collecting records from thrift shops etc. A few years ago, my husband bought me a replica of a victrola and I love listening to records. I love reading books and keeping my home cozy and clean for my family. Thank you for your inspiring videos. Your such a lovely lady, inside and out...God bless you and your family...Sherri-Idaho
I have recently gotten back to sitting down to eat. I got into a habit of multitasking while eating. Also have gone back to books and letter writing , and I'm loving it.
Lisa, you are so right about everything you said. I love my books and records and all the things you mentioned. It’s a shame our younger generations don’t know about the simple pleasures of life any more.
I hear what you're saying, Lori...our digital age makes things fast and convenient, no doubt about it yet, the old school methods were very immersive and interactive :)
Just a wonderful video today! I try to do all of those! Family dinner once a week, and scrabble Yay! Lisa i love to see you use your little blue and white pitcher to put water in things, it is such a special thing to see for me, is it Royal Copenhagen ? I love beautiful little jugs. Oh and Bud Vases, for flowers, ok i am stopping there now LOL Have a good week everyone!
The little blue and white pitcher comes in so handy - it was a gift and I love those too! hope you have a wonderful week too, Linda and thanks for your visit :)
Wow! You really hit the nail on the head here. I love writing letters. I don't have a record player but I do have a CD player and I put on Big Band music to decorate for Christmas. I love real books but my friends are afraid of my collection. LOL Most of it is heavy duty non fiction, history, politics, autobiographies oh and my collection of banned books in the US. My decorating is definitely from the heart here. I live in an A Frame cottage and I love rustic and my mother's art work and photography hangs everywhere. I did something for the first time tonight that shocked a few people. I run a group page on FB and it's always been just posting by me. Tonight I made a voice only video in explaining something. Some of the people on the page know me personally but most don't. Hearing my voice really sparked something in them which surprised the heck out of me. They really liked it. So as you say, the internet only goes so far on the level of connection.
Just today, while I was prepping cookie dough recipes, I was playing my mother's vinyl Christmas albums from the 1950's. I could have easily streamed them online, but I wanted HER NEAR ME. She passed away when I was a child. You are such a blessing, Lisa. Your videos always bring me peace and calm during the craziest of days.❤
Thanks for the lovely video. I do still love to send hand-written cards and read actual books. We have so many books, and after reading a good book I pass it around to my friends. And if the book is just so-so, I take it to re-sale at a bookstore and get gift cards for my kids. You look extra pretty in this video, and I love your scarf.
I love this! I know I still have a 20 year old letter from my pen pal in Australia and her picture ❤ My grandma owned an antique/thrift shop and we had a vinyl collection donated- I spent a lot of time looking through them and playing them, truly a great experience ❤ Thank you for reminding me of these w
I love all your videos but this one ..... A couple years ago I wrote out many of my late mothers and grandmothers recipes plus added some of my own ( I then in my own hand writing copied all of them and made cook books for my 3 daughters and 4 granddaughters). This way not only do they have 3 plus generations of passed down recipes their in my own hand writing. I've recently found my great grandmothers own cookbook and printing copies of all her hand written recipes to give them.
Those lap desks are so handy! So fun finding stationary too...I remember going into places like Hallmark when I was younger and there would be so many different ones to choose from; it was so hard to pick because there were so many beautiful styles...have fun with your letter writing, Tracy :)
My best friend has a stressful job, and, along with full time work, he’s going for his second Masters degree. He has his extensive vinyl collection (probably 500 albums, not exaggerating!), and two high end turntables, to distress at the end of a long day at work. There are shops that are like thrift stores but for music. You can get albums for between $1 and $10. I’m a boomer. I love the album covers, and getting to read either about the artist, or learn the lyrics. Most other types of music delivery systems don’t offer those.
We share so many habits, and it is so wonderful to hear you speak about them on the internet. My husband and I both write letters to our grandchildren. He collects postcards that he knows they will enjoy! We have many traditions that have passed down to the next generation. Something as simple as making fancy milkshakes after school events or concerts. My grandsons have parts in the musical "A Christmas Carol," so I have sent gift cards for their mom to pick up fancy ice cream to have at home to celebrate with! My husband is also a huge book collector, where two of our guest rooms have book shelves covering one wall, full of books! And we have always prioritized sit down meals. We just had our entire extended family for Thanksgiving, 11 people.. No one had phones at the table, because it is an unwritten rule in our home. But the conversation was SO lovely!!Thank you for sharing these special habits, that make such a difference in the quality of life we live!!
Lisa, thank you for this video! Calling a friend is truly so much more satisfying than being alone on the internet! Some of these habits have pre-requisites which may seem more time challenging, but putting systems into place can make the habits automatic. For instance, using favourite china requires washing by hand, but that is a 10-minute job if done after each meal (I learned this from organizer Dana K. White's channel). Also, I am making sitting down to eat a daily priority. Your channel has given me courage to try simple recipes. So I am preparing simple meals from scratch while developing and organizing my pantry to simplify this process. Building my own recipe binder has evolved out of this. I want to be able to make everything I love to eat, including chocolate chips!
Thank you so much, what a lovely message and video sharing so much wisdom. You are so very right and so inspirational. I love your outlook on life.There was another video that I watched long ago, where I was really hit by something you said, that I really needed to hear but I cant recall wich one it was. Yes...we do need to step back in time, its like everything is just spinning faster and faster and out of control. The treasures of life has gone lost. Thank you very much for these very much needed thoughts❤🌹
All your suggestions are on point. I do long for written letters. And this Christmas my Annamaria is away and I wrote her a handwritten letter. Also the records Yes the crackle of the needle hitting the vinyl classic. 🫖🇨🇦🙏🙏🙏💕🙏💕✝️🇮🇹. You just made my hear sing. what memories. 🎄
thank you!! I love this video , talking on the phone, not so much, we wind up talking over each other, Id rather visit in person or meet for coffee somewhere (smile). Cheers
My friend and I have busy schedules but we exchange a joke daily by text. It keeps the connection between us. When we do get together it doesn't feel like much time has passed, even if it has.
@asimpleseason2616 When your video first started, I was thinking, "Wow, her hair is so pretty." As you shared the timeless or "old fashioned" ideas that we should carry on, I just kept hearing your heart towards loving on people & enriching one another's lives. You're so right! By the end of this video, your outer and inner beauty really are evident. Thank you for always being a blessing to so many!
You could do live motivational speaking as you are passionate and committed to improving everyday life. Most people have no one who passes on wisdom like this.
I love letters Especially the old fashioned love letters I am going write love letters ❤❤❤❤ I love vinyl Just stop the world let get off Computer and cell phone more trouble then worth

I love writing notes and Bible verses on the Christmas cards I send. I hadn't thought of them as "hugs on paper.". Thanks for sharing.
What a nice addition to Christmas cards, Juanita...thanks for your visit :)
That's funny! I queued up the video and pulled out my notecards before starting! I got one thing going for me!
Haha! I love it! You're already ahead of the game!

Awesome talk Lisa so enjoyed it. 😂 I love my vinyl collection it is always an experience. ❤
My best friend has a stressful job, and, along with full time work, he’s going for his second Masters degree. He has his extensive vinyl collection (probably 500 albums, not exaggerating!), and two high end turntables, to distress at the end of a long day at work.
There are shops that are like thrift stores but for music. You can get albums for between $1 and $10.

So I am preparing simple meals from scratch while developing and organizing my pantry to simplify this process. Building my own recipe binder has evolved out of this. I want to be able to make everything I love to eat, including chocolate chips!
It sounds like you're doing a wonderful job of implementing a positive change!
Thank you so much, what a lovely message and video sharing so much wisdom. You are so very right and so inspirational. I love your outlook on life.There was another video that I watched long ago, where I was really hit by something you said, that I really needed to hear but I cant recall wich one it was. Yes...we do need to step back in time, its like everything is just spinning faster and faster and out of control. The treasures of life has gone lost. Thank you very much for these very much needed thoughts❤🌹
I'm so glad to hear when something resonates, Miriam...we're all in this together :)
@asimpleseason2616 🥰🌹

I’m so glad this video brought back such lovely memories :)

These are things I think about all the time! I think you might like a publication called Hearth and Field.

My friend and I have busy schedules but we exchange a joke daily by text. It keeps the connection between us. When we do get together it doesn't feel like much time has passed, even if it has.
love that, Helen! :)
you could not be more correct, regarding the texture that is prevalent, in the sounds that eminate from those vinyl rounds. records still rock.
You are beautiful! ❣️
How nice of you to say...thanks for visiting, Michelle :)
@asimpleseason2616 When your video first started, I was thinking, "Wow, her hair is so pretty." As you shared the timeless or "old fashioned" ideas that we should carry on, I just kept hearing your heart towards loving on people & enriching one another's lives. You're so right! By the end of this video, your outer and inner beauty really are evident. Thank you for always being a blessing to so many!
You could do live motivational speaking as you are passionate and committed to improving everyday life. Most people have no one who passes on wisdom like this.
wow, thanks for your encouragement!
