As a retired nurse I can certainly tel you that your patients are just going to love your personality, I think you'll do very well in nursing.

[@SageLilleyman]

Aw, that means a lot! Thank you so much for your kind and encouraging words! 💕

[@sallycormier1383]

I agree, also a retired OR nurse☺️

Does anyone else remember “Cherry Ames, Nurse?” 🥰🤎🤎

[@sallycormier1383]

@@drummerlovesbookworm9738 I love old books and often pick up ones from antique stores. Have so many I haven’t read them all but wasn’t there a series of books about that character? I think I might need to peruse my library shelves because I just might have one!

I'd love to see a Dining Through the Decades for the 1930's, I'm curious what effect, if any, the Great Depression had on the Australian people. Love all your videos, can't wait to see what you do next!

[@baylorsailor]

Me too! 30s would be so interesting!

[@baylorsailor]

30s would be very interesting!

[@ladydior6049]

I agree! Australia was effected badly during the 30s (along with the rest of the world) with severe unemployment rates; higher then ever before, a lot of people were relying on charity to survive.

[@vintagelife5195]

1930s!

[@mamasinthegarden7068]

Merry Christmas and enjoy your break. BTW, my 3 year old loves you, and watching Dining Through the Decades, or, as she calls it 'The Pretty lady cooking show.' Best wishes from Scotland, Ashleigh.

[@Judy122550]

You & James have a lovely & Blessed Christmas.Your videos bring me happiness & remind me of my Mother she is 92 & a lot of things you do remind me of my beloved Mom she is doing well

[@marywegrzyn506]

I know you're going to school to become a Nurse n I know you will exceed in that profession because you are smart, caring, sweet love the old days. Just think of all the older people you will be helping n getting them to tell you things about actually living n being young in those glorious old days of the 30's, 40'sn 50's. Those were the best times for me when I worked in Nursing Homes n Assisted Living Homes, getting to spend time chatting with the elderly n listening to some of the precious stories of their youth n where they lives, how they lived, what they rode or drove, how they dressed, etc .. I loved hearing everything so much. I JUST PRAY YOU WON'T STOP DOING THIS CHANNEL, EVER. PLEASE DONT FORGET YOUR ADORING FANS N FRIENDS. WE LOVE YOU !!!

[@marylyn5965]

My stocking looked like that and I was born in the seventies. It was red felt with a green and white suited Santa Claus and gold stars. And my brother had one with Santa and his sleigh with gold stars. And the top of them had cuffs that look like melting snow. Merry Christmas to you and James. 💜

[@johnvsymons]

Sage, I must tell you that it just makes my day when you post a new video. You are such a breath of fresh air and so enjoyable to watch. I love how you bring to life the customs and foods of earlier times. Wishing you and James and your families a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. 🤗❤☃️🎄🙏🌎

[@carolledger8047]

Merry Christmas! I love your show. I love the 50s and 60s too. I was born in 1957 so sort of lived through some of it but I was a child. There's something so comforting about that time.

[@tiffanyroberts9460]

I've never been into modern kitchens myself either. Growing up, my elderly family members always had the older style kitchens from the 60s/70s. I found a video here on youtube from a historical channel that showed a plan for a 1940s farm kitchen that I thought was so amazing. If I ever get a chance to design my own kitchen, I want to use something similar. Love your channel Sage!

[@woodenkat8971]

Farmhouse vernacular! Love them...

[@Lindzo89]

Congrats on 150k! I wanted to mention that Jack Russell terriers were bred to kill vermin and have a very high prey drive. So they are probably not the best choice to have around chickens. I would definitely do some research on the breed before getting one. Anyway, I hope you and James have a wonderful Christmas!

[@14judita]

Your love and pride of everything vintage is exuberayting so im thankful you have this platform so we can all enjoy it as much as you do…thx so much…sending love from CT 🇺🇸

[@MillsSkits]

Merry Christmas! You can always save James' stocking for next year and another subscriber milestone! 😊 Enjoy your time off!

[@IlluminosaImmortalis]

I grew up in an old farmhouse as well (1890s, partly rebuilt in the 1920s) and I just loved hearing that you did too! How cool! Merry Christmas and thanks for the fun video 🎄❤️

[@cybersee9966]

I recommend “Pleasantville.” It’s a movie about life in a 1950’s sitcom.

[@sentidodavida740]

I'm Brazilian and I love your videos. Merry Christmas, Sage!

[@crazydrummerofdoom]

How are you dealing with all the riots,and lockdowns? Do you just imagine it's like ww2 and your living through a wartime effort? Love your show,keep up the awesome work.

[@katharineboyd2793]

Oh my goodness, Beebee and especially Oliver!!! What a well-trained and affectionate little bird he is, to be able to chill in a stocking like that. 🎄🦜💜

[@johntabascolee6761]

Memories of the 50’s are still in my mind and you’ve refreshed those memories of my mom and her sewing patchwork quilts on a frame my dad made for her that took up the whole den during the Christmas season…yes the older kids all got quilts….mom used to call them “grandma heaters.” Love Ya! 💞 for making memories for us older folks, 75 and still loving the 50’s and 60’s Santa

[@marywegrzyn506]

Yes, I found out that some Thrift Stores are Private Owned, those are usually the more expensive places so I don't shop in those places. The Salvation Army is about the least expensive second hand stores (Thrift Stores) around here. Their money goes to help the needy, which is wonderful.

[@marywegrzyn506]

As I am watching this video n hearing you read all the beautiful comments it is reaffirming my feelings that everyone loves you because you are you. You have the most sweetest, loveable personality n I love when you smile n your gorgeous dimples show!!!!

[@lellyt2372]

My just-turned 13yr old daughter brought me to your channel and both she and I love your videos. You inspired her to start caring for her skin. Her eyes lit up when I brought home Nivea and Olay for her after your video showing products still available today. I knew these products because they were the ones I used when I was young because they were the only things my mother knew (she was a teen in the 50's so we had Ponds cold cream and Oil of Ulay in my house my whole life😁) She puts curlers in her hair every night now and loves the style. I have a plan to buy a sewing machine in the new year and learn how to make clothes for her and I all thanks to your channel. Congratulations on 150k ❤

[@rachealgetscreative]

Lovely stocking! I like the little rocking horse, especially. And I'm so excited you're getting a little doggie. Merry Christmas!

[@sarajones9979]

How awesome that you're going to be a nurse! I just graduated nursing school in May 😊 You'll be such a great nurse. We need nurses now more than ever ❤️ And Sound of Music is a great movie 👌 100% agree!

[@HeyJenkies]

My Grandmother made stockings for all her children and grandchildren out of felt that look exactly like the “Alice” stocking example you showed. I loved my stocking so much! Each of us had different felt items on our stocking to make it more personalized. I thought it was an 80s/90s thing but apparently it was something that my Grandmother must have carried over from her earlier years. Thank you for bringing back lovely memories from my childhood

Greetings from USA. I am so glad i came across your channel and it is very inspirational. I really bring back good memories back then. Honestly i prefer in the 40 to 50's coz it is so simply but classy look. I also love thrift like you. To be honest it is more exciting to go to thrift store than going to the mall. : )

You are such a bright light! ✨ The love and joy you spread is such a beautiful thing and you will help so many people through nursing! I just love how much your soul wants to make the world a better place. 💖✨ If you got a little dog it seems to me like a little Jack Russell terrier would be perfect! I wanted to say a big “thank you” for your content and inspiration. It’s really helped me get through some exhausting times and keep my ‘head above water’. I also have been dressing in vintage-inspired fashion recently and you have been a huge inspiration for me. I have been getting SO many compliments on my 1930s incorporated style with my cloche hat, long winter coat, and blouses and skirts. People actually take the time to stop me and tell me how much they love my outfit. I’ve loved the 1930s /40s/ 50s since I was a little girl and it really is a confidence boost to dress in what you love!

[@froggeh]

oooh, I LOVE Oliver!!
