i truly do feel nostalgia for your family's home! your room, the different angles in the kitchen, the CLOCK! it's amazing, that we can feel this way about something that isn't ours. thank you for sharing it with us again

[@SustainablyVegan]

I totally agree!

[@SarahsVeganKitchen]

Just seeing you back in this kitchen feels like a warm hug! 🤗 And about your colors - I think you might be a winter, maybe true winter? You look incredible in cool saturated colors! Lots of contrast. Second to that maybe a true summer? I keep thinking of how that berry/burgundy color you dyed your wedding dress is like your perfect shade.

[@ChiChisAwsm]

Agreed! I loved the nostalgia and that dress color 🥰 ty for the cozy vibes during this Colorado weather❤

Something about your parents' home is just extra cozy when I watch. Maybe because it reminds me of a cozy cottage surrounded by plants and open sky 🥰

Your parents home is so lovely and cosy and quintessentially English. So lovely to have such a safe space to return to. Thank you ( and your parents) for bringing us along.

@@SustainablyVegan I always enjoy your videos! I‘m still trying to find the patience for knitting and you’re a big inspiration when it comes to learning new skills and persevering through challenges - something that does not come easy to me whatsoever. So, this video was a great reminder to be patient and try again ❤

[@SustainablyVegan]

ah thank you, I'm so so so glad that that is one takeaway from my videos. I get so frustrated with knitting, sewing, new challenges and skills in general but it's always worth it once you get through to the other side!

Yes we will be moving back to the UK, just not sure when! Thanks so much for watching x

[@lindsayhudkins9027]

Oh yes, I loved your videos in England! I also just visited England for the first time in 20 years (used to be married to a Brit) and went to the lake district and to Oxford. England is the best. I feel for you in that I moved away from my home city to a small town. Every time I go back there, my heart aches. Much love to you and your family.

[@micheleharris2361]

Yes, total nostalgia! - I had to look to make sure this was a current video! It's a beautiful home, and a wonderful place to explore different thoughts and ideas. Thank you so much, and to your parents, for sharing such a warm and wonderful place! :)

[@emilyclark6047]

This is such a comforting nostalgic video! Don’t get me wrong, I love all of your videos, I live in the same area as your parents and wasn’t able to be home during the pandemic and it just fills me with warm comfy (weirdly covidy) nostalgia!

[@chantal2067]

What you said about the quality of sleep you get at your parents' house is so true for me as well, my parents live in northern Canada in a very small and quiet town, my childhood bed is so comfortable, and every time I sleep there nothing wakes me before my body naturally wakes on its own, it's not usual for me to sleep for ten to twelve hours at a time. I'm in my 30s with a busy life, so that never happens anywhere else other than there!

[@VivienLV1707]

RE: Tofu Scramble...you HAVE to try Rainbow Plant Life's recipe! It's life changing, and I bet you'll love it since you love so many of her other recipes. It's unlike any other recipe I've ever seen, it's so moist and delicious.

[@SustainablyVegan]

Ohhhh ok thanks for the rec will definitely check it out!

[@kaiju_k5042]

THat's such a great recommendation you sold me on it too, is it the "Seriously The Best Tofu Scramble" on her website?

[@lzlzlz347]

Any tofu scramble recipe gets way better and creamy if you add a splash of plant milk in the pan near the end!

[@pamb7539]

She's right. Nisha's Tofu Scramble is the best!

[@jenwylie4093]

Your parent's place has always reminded me of the way you would read about a UK house on the countryside. It's so lovely.

[@michelegangaware5250]

Nisha's Tofu Masala is the BEST! I made it for one of my weekly meal prep clients and they loved it to- it's a staple in our house!

[@quiet_the_mood]

Really enjoyed this video Immy, thank you. So lovely seeing you back home here, I suddenly felt quite sad that you must be missing those gorgeous dogs. I've just made Ottolenghi's Mushroom Ragù, from Comfort. It was insanely good, I just can't tell you! A firm fave now, subbed the cream for coconut cream. It amazed me that the small amount of each ingredient produced such a deep flavour👌Love the name change x

[@mmschwartz84]

Love seeing the Zingerman's Coffee Mug... I am a UofM alum and have so much nostalgia for Ann Arbor. I now live about an hour from there. I often gift Zingermans' holiday treats and baskets to people this time of year... they are the best and so are you and your channel ❤ You inspire me to try new things in the kitchen and in life!

[@egleeim]

Love the silent long cooking video from your parents kitchen. The house looks so beautiful and cozy. Can you tell me about the traditions in the UK related to housing - I hear you have two siblings, so when kids grow up and leave parents home is it common to downsize for parents, or to change the location near bigger towns to access healthcare etc?

[@SustainablyVegan]

Yes! I have an older sister and an older brother. So this isn't the house we grew up in. We grew up in a house in London and when I moved to university my parents decided they no longer wanted to live in London and wanted to live in the countryside so they bought this house (about 10 years ago). I think they would have downsized but they wanted space for everyone to be able to visit and stay throughout the year and at Christmas etc. They didn't anticipate that my brother would move out of London and move closer to them, nor my sister splitting her time between sussex and London too. Most of my friends parents still live in London, and considering house prices have skyrocketed, the idea of selling and moving seems like a bad choice as they've lived in those houses for over 30 years!

[@viivi4196]

I don't remember when exactly I followed you, but I remember that kitchen! and have to say, south downs looks SO beautiful!

[@Natyaiscool]

Love your personality. Also, this video makes me want to get back into tea!

[@bowtruckle1593]

I didn't think I'd feel as nostalgic about your parent's place as I did - the beautiful kitchen and Sussex countryside just made your video feel even more warm and calming than usual. I'm obsessed with this Peanut rayu sauce! So funny to see it in your video. Also I can highly recommend an in person colour analysis! Mine was such a fun experience and so interesting when my colour analyst showed me not just which colours are best but also how certain colours make me look and why! I admit I'm just curious now myself about your colour season 🙃

[@SustainablyVegan]

You've convinced me to get it done haha. I am going to make a video all about it in January!

[@nadja8087]

So happy you posted again! I love your videos, they're always so cozy 🩷 I'm always looking forward to a new video of yours 🫶🏼

[@loveanyways]

Hi Immy, love your videos..to umph up your tofu scramble, I mix in some silken with the hard tofu along with some nooch, turmeric, plant milk, chilli, black P an salt . I find it change up the texture an makes more pleasant. :)

[@arioctober110]

my hard earned secret to good tofu scramble = keeping it moist! i always add a splash or two of alt milk to mine so it's more saucy than chunky, and make sure to add plenty of seasoning as well (usually coriander, nooch, garlic powder and paprika for me + often a splash of tamari and/or worcestershire), and i like to cook the base veggies in vegan butter for that extra bit of flavor!

And in the morning oatmeal....but usually always something new. But in fact, there are some breakfast variants that I repeat from time to time. Greetings from cologne Andy

[@lilred312benett6]

I tried tofu scramble and I didn't love the texture. Your parents house is nostalgic. I love the open space of the kitchen. I remember you starting the garden and all the things you would cook with whatever you harvested. I learned that pickling and storing food isn't as scary as it seems. Have you made any recipes from your new book for your family? Is the Curry recipe in the book?

[@bethanyhartzell5336]

If you want to do your colors yourself, i just tried doing it myself and it was really fun! I started by seeing what clothes I had that I really loved and kind of “dissecting” what I liked about it (specifically color). Then I went to the fabric store with a mirror and hold solid fabrics up to my face and seeing how I felt against my skin. It was fun, especially with a friend. :)

And I can’t wait to see the baby book you’re going to make. I did miss your videos but glad you’re back and let us visit England again.

[@inMuro]

Colour analysis! So I did one and I can tell you right now, that you are the fall-ish type with 1) warm colours, 2) muted colours, 3) darker colours. I am similar only i have fewer contrast between my skin and hair, so i look best in mid-contrast colours. So you'd look great in like a deep warm red, a hazel brown, a yellow ochre, or an olive green or something. Your hat is beautiful, only it's a bit too cold coloured or light for the 'perfect colour analysis' match, but F*ck the colour analysis sometimes :') just wear whatever you want! But you're definitely fall, too I'd say :D

I just noticed your knitting technique and I can see why it takes you so long if you let go of the needles to put on the thread. I would hold the strand on my finger and grab/pull it in with the needle. Then you can do it very fast and even without looking at the knit. Just never let go of the needles.

[@alinabelousova]

I think you are a winter type in terms of colour scheme, because you have a fair skin and dark hair, like me. I'd safely say that the colours that would suit you are purple, burgundy, deep and salad green. I saw in one of MuchelleB's video that you can use AI to figure out your colour scheme by uploading your picture.

I’d really like to know your thoughts on the recent US election as a resident, but not a US national? Has it swayed your plans at all? Particularly as you’ve mentioned potentially having children in the future.

[@SustainablyVegan]

Yes it absolutely has. I've spoken about it a lot on instagram, and tbh it's really devastating for both me and my husband. We have had a lot of very serious conversations about when we should move, and how we would go about doing that. We aren't ready to move back to the UK and we're not ready to start a family but the future here is very very scary. The problem is that it's expensive to move and we will need to go through the whole visa process for my husband to move to the UK so no matter what everything will take a lot of time, and a lot of things are out of our control. We are both truly horrified by the election result.
