My First Potato Harvest! - and Dining Room Renovation in my 100-year-old Cottage

  • My very first potato harvest! This was so exciting and the harvest was much larger than I anticipated! I gave my dad half of it since he eats potatos every day, which he was very happy about.
    Living in a renovation caos is draining, so I finished my tiny dining room in a long weekend. The feeling of having a room done in my home was an amazing feeling and I'm very happy with the outcome! The paint color is the same as the one I have in my bedroom, but I somehow think it worked better in this room. I suppose it has something to do with the light.
    In case it's confusing; this is footage from last year, September 2023.
    Thank you for watching, and thank you for reading.
