Peaceful and relaxing. That’s why I watch. Love her. Hi I’m Darlene from Souper at 60. I’d love to have you join me in my kitchen sometime. Lord bless 🇺🇸❤️
I recently found you and I am blessed. . I have been depressed and saddened. I am a Covid nurse in NJ. Have let my gardens go for 2 yrs and my home. I do have animals and I love to bake with antique items and make antique recipes. Your videos have inspired me to get going at home and I am inspired by the tea and chinaware ( another passion) to make things nice at home again. My husband and son care for the animals and I wish to make things better for them, your show is easy , and not at all stressful, in fact very calming for me to set goals and make plans I wanted to thank you for all you do for me and others every day🙏 Lee NJ
That is very rewarding to know that the videos have been helpful to you. I hope you can renew the joy in life that you had in the past, before the PROBLEM came along. May God bring you peace!
Hello from England ,I have terminal Cancer and I can't tell you how much I love and appreciate your videos.Once I put my baby to bed I retire for the night myself and I listen to you wearing headphones just BLISS ! I love the sounds of the eggs cracking ,the sugar bag and your voice just so soothing.I am not able to eat solid food anymore and I'm drooling over your scones and most especially the clotted cream YUMMY !! Sending you love and thanks ,God Bless you from a chilly England xxx
I am so sorry to learn of your condition, but pleased that this video brings you quietness and peace. You've encouraged me as well and I sincerely wish you the best, Thank you for this comment, may God be with you through all of trials. Jeri
This video was just pure tranquility. Thank you for all your time and effort in creating such beautiful and delightful content. Your channel and your artistry has been so inspiring and uplifting.✨ 🌻✨
I’m a 75 yr old widow, and have had a most lovely breakfast along with your tea time makings. Many years ago, I lived in Sri Lanka for a couple of years, and they do most things the British way (or vay) as they would say. They put a lot of milk and sugar in their delicious Sri Lankan mountain grown black tea, and so I used to tell them... “You don’t drink tea, you drink hot sugar milk”. In the villages there, back then, they didn’t have access to fresh milk or cream, so they used a Lanka powdered milk. My family and I all grew to love it as much as we loved the Sri Lankan people. I bought a teapot, cups & saucers & bread & butter plates to use daily, and then brought those back to the U.S. as our souvenirs from our time there. Thank you for sharing your tea time with me.
This video was exactly what I've been craving... Nostalgia, coziness, art, and even someone to read aloud to me. Thank you for the respite from our hectic world, and inviting us in for a visit to your lovely home!
This video appeared on my RU-vid randomly, so I watched it, being interested in teas and scones. I was so delighted to see your Old Curiosity Shoppe china pieces! My mother had some pieces of this china when I was growing up that she'd gotten at Safeway grocery store. I remember as a girl liking both the color and the pictures. Hers were long gone in the chaos of raising seven children, but years ago I began collecting Old Curiosity myself and now have quite a large collection, which we've used many times for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners and other special occasions. I also have a vintage copy of the Dickens book that I display with the china. Thank you for the informative and very pleasant video!
Many things I wish I had asked parents and grandparents while they were still here. I wasn't interested at the time either. Relaxing video, like a step back in time and place.
Richard, I also regret not having asked my dad about his WWII experiences, we are so self- centered in our youth we fail to appreciate the wisdom of our elders.
Richard Eidemiller This is so true .. being raised by my Grandparents little did I know the wealth of knowledge and history that my GF especially tried to pass on through his stories . When he used to talk about our Great Grandmother passing away in Hells Kitchen the Bronx we couldn’t understand why she would be there from RI , turns out she was Anne Marbury Hutchinson killed by Indians and at the time it was Pelham Bay in the 1600’s . Who could imagine that as a kid .
@@Dollgrl1 My mom always told me history was very interesting. I didn't listen. My Grandmother was born in Austria raised in Czechoslovakia and her family was Gypsy. They at one time hid Jewish people from the Germans. She hid in the bowels of a boat at age 16 and came to America to escape abuse. She taught herself English and was fluent in Chech, Russian, Hungarian, German and French. She refused to discuss her family because she was ashamed of the Gypsy life. My grandparents had stamps and letters from all over the world. After they died there was family discord and a lot disappeared. The stories that those letters may have contained. Thanks for sharing your fascinating story. Some day I may try one of the Ancestry sites.
@@JeriLandersofHopalongHollow Agreed.I wrote a little below in my response to someone else. I kick myself for not having asked my mom about my grandparents lives after they passed. Now she's gone too.
I love Charles Dickens! I have sought out and obtained a several of his works. I am always grateful for everything. In a strange way his works open your eyes and makes you thankful for what you do have! Thanks for tea, once again. Truly a joy!
I made orange scones with clotted cream a couple of years ago and nearly swooned with the first bite! The cream was something so unbelievably delicious. I cannot believe that it is not something eaten worldwide! Thank you for sharing such a relaxing, comforting and beautiful video.
Enjoyed sharing tea today! Your discussion about pouring cream in the tea reminded me of a story my mother often told me. She was young newly married and had never been to a tea before. She was invited to a ladies tea and dressed up but yet was nervous. As she went down the table to have her tea poured she was met with lemon slices, sugar cubes and cream. Unsure what to do, she added all three to her cup resulting in a curdled mess. She then literally looked for a potted palm to dump it into.
Thanks, Jeri, for your generous information. My daughter and granddaughters love little tea parties. I love this grown up tea “party”. And I will share this with them.
I only recently found out that through DNA that I am mostly French and English! That explains why I have loved everything ENGLISH! Especially tea. I have been collecting tea pots from England but until now a little in the dark about what teas to try. I met a women from Belgium and she told me that the tea you buy at the store is nothing like the loose leaf. So I hunted some down and tried it. I was in love instantly. I love the scones as well. Thank you for your wonderful postings. I'm learning a lot and have been jotting down all the names of the brands of tea. Thank You! Brenda from MO USA
It's in your blood, that love of English, mine too. I discovered my roots through Genealogy and my British heritage is very deep. I agree that once you try the really GOOD teas, you will never drink the other "stuff"!
I'm Devonian and my mum was Cornish. Cream then jam the Devonshire way or jam then cream the Cornish way... either way is great. Your scones turned out proper (good) 😊and your cream looked incredible. Loved your video. Extremely interesting and beautifully done. Thankyou
@@JeriLandersofHopalongHollow you are most welcome. I forgot to say previously that the addition of your felted friends at their very own tea table was adorable
I'm a new subscriber. I stumbled upon your channel and was hooked immediately. I love the beautiful imagery of all your treasures....BUT....I love the sounds of watching what you do too. Your voice is soothing, the imagery takes me to a wonderful place. I love how you use all these gorgeous old treasures. There's just something so grounding and comforting to see these things used as they once were. Sometimes I think we've forgotten how to treat ourselves....and doing things the way you do is surely a visual treat as well. Every frame is magazine worthy....and I have to watch them over and over. Thank you so much for taking the time to put these lovely moments together.
This was so warm and cozy and yummy to watch after a long hard day at work. Thank you and will try this myself. I don’t have a lot of kitchen gadgets so I’m glad you showed how to make by hand. The Old Curiosity Shop is on of my favorites and really fit into your china and scones.
The history of the green dishes is fascinating! I’ll look more closely for them while antiquing. And the tea sounds delicious- I’m going to order some!
I’m British ( scottish) I say scone as in gone...We make a batch every week with sultanas mixed in . Up here we eat them mostly with butter and jam ..but when I was in Cornwall ( in England) we had them with whipped cream and jam ..that and a pot of tea ...heaven ❤️
Jeri, I have been rewatching your beautiful videos on seed starting , which is a balm to my soul as I look out my window at all the snow . Do you have a video that shows where your tomatoes and pumpkins grow amongst your lovely flowers? I'd love to see how to do that. I'm so looking forward to each upcoming video you make ! Have you considered writing a book on creating a " Hopalong Hollow " garden ?
@@JeriLandersofHopalongHollow i just found you recently and immediately fell in love. I am on my front porch this morning in a little place called flag pond in TN. I wrap up in my throw while enjoying my cup of tea feels like a nice visit with an old friend.
This video is just so dear, everything about it. I love your tea parties especially. I love the care you take with everything, slowing down life just a little to remind us of the beauty still left. Thank you!
Wow Jeri, When I first spotted your video yesterday I thought humm, I’m going to save that for this morning to enjoy 🥰 👍💖 Thank you for this delightful morning. Bless you and your family, 💜 Chris-Raleigh NC
Jeri, I have been looking at all your previous videos they give me such a cozy feeling. I have also learned to appreciate all my old things I have. Most of all I have learned so much from you on how to decorate with the things I already have. I have bought some of the teas you recommended and they are perfect for a cold Winter day. Thank you so much and I hope you put out another video soon. Have a wonderful weekend.
So nice to hear that some of my ideas are being put to use for you.I've been working on a video for a few days now, Planning a Colonial Herb Garden and serving Colonial Tea., it should be fun>
Absolutely love your content!! Thank you Jeri!! My mother had this set of dishes that we used as children!! Sure a great reminiscent video for me!! My mama’s favorite color is green as well!
3 things: 1. You’ve given me an idea of how to use our covered chicken dishes! 2. I’ve been wanting to visit England again and this is so lovely, even though you are in the states. 3. My dog, lying next to me, started snoring at the same time yours did, and then stopped shortly after yours did! 😂
I happened on to your channel today. What a treat for my senses! So lovely, quaint and charming! I have been binge watching as I work. God has blessed you with so many wonderful talents! You are gifted indeed! ❤️💕❤️💕
I loved this video so much, I am from Arkansas and right now we are living in Japan because of my husband's job. I miss home so very much and this reminds me of my childhood. My mom loves to garden and cook and so does my grandma. Thank you so much for this cozy video, it felt so personal and warm and welcoming! God Bless! ♥️😊
The food, gardens and culture must feel very different in Japan from what you grew up with; so very glad that we could bring a bit of old home coziness to your day!
@@JeriLandersofHopalongHollow Yes it is, it's an amazing experience! We really love Japan, but nothing beats home. 😍 Thanks again for this amazing video, new sub here! 😊
I love tea time with you! I watched half the video earlier, and finally got around to finishing it tonight.... and paused to go to Amazon to get the free Kindle version of The Old Curiosity Shop so I can enjoy it with a cuppa... and then paused to look on ebay to see if there are any of those dishes available. Love them! Thank you for sharing your tea time with us!
Freezing the butter then shredding... now thats clever... Im gonna use that idea when making my biscuits. You are blessed to have a cook in the family. I spend about 6 hours in the kitchen every day. I would love to have that time in doing my art or crafts. But its a service of love so be it. =)
I've read the old curiosity shop. This is a wonderful video. At the beginning when the clock was being wound all I could think of was The Borrowers. Dear Homily, Pod, and Arrietty. Thank you for this.
I'm glad to see some one doing thing the old way. I still make pie crust the way my Great Grandmother did. Its written German with the help of the Internet its now in English. She never used butter in it. She used schmaltz / lard . Hope you and your family have a happy New Year.
This stressed out music and drama teacher working on a big musical production was so thrilled to find this charming video. Thank you for giving me a wonderful visit to your Dickens Tea. Happy New Year!
This is about the 3rd or 4th time I’ve watched this one. Addicting , I’ll tell ya. Too windy and a bit cold to be out in the Garden, this February day. So I return to your videos and treasure them all over again. Have a blessed weekend, Jerri💕🦉🐾
Greetings Ms. Landers. I am new to your channel and I am loving it so very much. It is so unique and soothing. You are an excellent teacher of history too. I have been binge watching all day today. Thank you so much for sharing your life and talents.
Just found your channel and I am absolutely in love. Your videos are so calming to watch and feel very comforting. Thank you for sharing your life with us 🖤
Hi Jeri, I made your Cornish Cream yesterday and your scone recipe today. Both came out wonderful! I'll be serving them with raspberry jam for tea tomorrow with my granddaughter! I have enjoyed your videos for quite a while now, thank you!
Bonjour Jeri, I have visited your channel a few times and each time it is a delightful experience : cozy, warm, interesting learning experience. Thank you for sharing what you love with us. Tea time is relaxing and enjoyable. I am subscribing now !
Oh Jeri, I am watching all of your older videos, and just had to comment on this one in particular. You had me laughing over your dog snoring and when you were about to add the clotted cream to your scone at the end and you said you really want to put A LOT on it, just cracked me up. I have never had it before but sure enjoyed watching how you make it, and your scones, it all looks really delicious. Well you definitely taught me something new about the tableware. I see it a lot at antique malls and flea markets too and have never cared much for it but now that I know the story behind it all that does change things! I have two miniature room boxes stacked like a two story shop with all kinds of misc miniatures in that I call The Old Curiosity Shop. So I am all about Old Curiosity Shops! Thanks for sharing the news! xoxo
Thank you for sharing the clotted cream experience! A very dear friend of mine from England introduced me to it years before ever tasting it. It is divine!! Scones and clotted cream were my indulgence every morning for breakfast while visiting her in the UK a couple of years ago. I can't wait to make both!!♥️
I've never heard of that Old Curiosity Shop pattern, but I will certainly be on the lookout for it now! I adore Dickens and am quite an Angliophile, so this is right up my alley ❤
I have a few pieces of "the Old Curiosity Shop" dishware. I have found them very inexpesively in thrift stores.I love the pieces that have the village scenes . They are such a wonderful study while drinking tea!!
I love how you set out your table, and the background music even though I'm not a big fan of classical music. I like some but not all. Thanks for sharing - and sharing your recepies!
May I compliment you on an exquisite execution of an afternoon Cornish cream tea. As a genuine full Cornish celt, your gentle cooking of clotted cream was beautiful. Having sampled and made thousands myself it was perfect, looked delicious hope you enjoyed the fruits of your labours. Agreed nothing wrong with a dollop of cream occasionally, a little of what you fancy does you good. Blessings of health, happiness and peace. :-)
Omg that cream looks sooo good, loved watching this thank you for sharing. Just the distraction we need with covid lockdown. When I went to Devon they put clotted cream on top of ice cream.
