It’s been busy and we have guests which meant that I forgot about my blog. I have been concentrating on finishing the advent calendar because I want to use it in the vlog this week. This afternoon I harvested the parsnips that Chris grew. Whilst none of them were particularly large, there were quite aContinue reading “Oops I forgot”

Today’s video has gone live. I am rather pleased with the way in which it has been edited. So we have gluten free Devon Apple Cake with Caramel Beurre salé. Do please have a look. Let me know what you think. Do remember to leave a comment. Until Monday…

Sometimes I wonder how we fit it all in and today has been one of those days. We appeared to run around like headless chickens for several hours. I then needed to send additional information to my youngest for him to add into the information that goes alongside the video. This morning we needed toContinue reading “A busy day”

Chris still isn’t feeling too well. In fact he missed a trip to a bar, he was asleep. So I think that he really isn’t well. Let’s hope that he stats to feel better soon. He was however able to act as camera man this morning. So I have made this week’s video. So onContinue reading “Cooking and filming”

We have had a few jobs to do, including starting the process of cleaning and tidying the gîte. We had 15 guests over the weekend, so 30 towels alone! I haven’t yet filmed this week’s video however I have plans in place. I am hoping to film tomorrow. This week I will be making glutenContinue reading “Not much to report!”

Given certain difficulties we had decided to take her to the vet that Archie went to when he brokeContinue reading “Up and down, good and bad!”

Yesterday this week’s video went live. Do pop over to You Tube and have a watch. Let me know what you think. Also let me know if there is anything that you would like to see me make. Until Monday…

Tomorrow I will be on a ferry on my way home. I have traveled back to Plymouth. I am looking forward to getting home. I love seeing my children and leaving is hard but I am particularly looking forward to my own bed! Tomorrow’s video will go live at 5pm Paris time. I may notContinue reading “Last day”

I have been looking at the information on what people are watching on my You Tube channel. It seems that the food videos are far and away the most popular. With this in mind I am wondering whether there are things that you would like to see me make. Perhaps you can comment below. DoContinue reading “Reviewing the figures”

I have to be honest and say that I haven’t achieved a great deal today. I have spent a certain amount of the day answering emails and dealing with the gîte. This often can take up a lot of time and not really achieve very much. So I have had one potential guest who initiallyContinue reading “Productivity!”
