EPISODE 5: The Secret to Happiness
Emma's diary has not only kept Winifred company, but it has also taught her life lessons, a gift that she will share with her friend Chloe by writing her a book about their grandmothers' story. Savouring the misty days of November she gets ready to welcome Chloe again and share the joy of cold slow days together.
🎞 ABOUT THE SERIES:
When a young countryside teacher receives a box from her grandmother's lifelong friend, her solitary life will suddenly turn into a beautiful search for happiness and magic.
Set in a cosy cottage in Bermothill in the late 1970s, The Dandelion Pact centres on Winifred Clarke who, inspired by the pages of a diary written in the early 20th century, embarks on the beautiful journey of embracing a simple but meaningful life.
Follow Winifred on this fascinating story about kindness, uniqueness and true friendship.

I am wrapped in my blanket right now as the temperature dropped a lot the last few days. Rainy days too! It won't be very long until winter and feels like autumn is going by too fast!

[@thecottagelibrary]

Ohh how lovely! 🤎🥰 thank you so much!! Your words warm my heart! The tea was black tea, orange peel and lemon. My family used to make it that way in a jar when I was a child. It was just a couple of times during winter, so a very special moment for me, I remember its taste with great melancholy. We called it “mate de té” in Uruguay.
