Spend A Cosy Day With Me & My Easy Cheese Scone Recipe

[@cblodg1]

This is so nice. I don’t think you know how calming you are. In this world of going fast, you bring a lovely calm.

[@heartbeatoz]

I agree an oasis of calmness in a speedy world 👌🏻

[@cindywilson7752]

I, too, am Cynthia Wilson and enjoy your videos so much here in Las Vegas, NEVADA, USA. You make me feel as if I'm spending time with a friend. You are so relaxed and relaxing. I love your grace and little asides. It was cute, your reaction to the removing of the insides of the pumpkin and when you hand kneaded the butter into the dry ingredients. The glimpses into your life are refreshing and feel uncontrived and natural even if you script them a little beforehand. You are the breath of fresh air I look forward to every week. Always my best wishes.

[@cindyhalpern3187]

You are funny, kind, and real. Don't ever change!

[@roxanneelsey6266]

I make that type of arrangement every year to give to neighbors. I save tin cans during the year and put that in the center to hold water. Putting a thin layer of petroleum jelly on the outside extends the life of the pumpkin after I soak them in water with a small amount of bleach. I make 15-20 every Fall. Hope this helps

[@promenadeable]

You are incredibly soothing - a treasure in a noisy chaotic world

[@jaysuthers435]

I think the short pumpkin and the very fall colors of the roses are perfect. A taller pumpkin would leave guests trying to see around it when looking across the table.

[@frannyjettie]

As I agree with you as to getting your fingers all messy when making scones, I highly recommend a pastry blender. Not only does the butter not warm up with the touch of your fingers, there's no mess to you and the ingredients get combined as they should be. I even put my pastry blender in the freezer a little bit prior to using it. Scones come out best when all of the ingredients are cool. I've been doing this for years with much success.

[@helengreen6724]

Lisa, I was thinking the same thing as I watched him place his hands into the bowl.

[@kellichandler2752]

Great idea!

[@mistymornings9331]

A pastry blender is a great idea. Another wonderful video Nicolas - your Rose display in the pumpkin turned out really beautifully. I always look forward to your videos so thankyou for indulging us 😘🌹🥂xx

[@Kai-qw7ch]

For those that dislike messy fingers, a pair of gloves can be used. Then Bin them when finished.

[@pdcistheb4318]

A pastry cutter and a Danish dough hook for the more wet parts!

[@BilhaCalderon]

A little appreciation comment. Thank you Nicolas. I watch these videos while i fill my agenda on monday mornings. LOVE the calming voice and sweet ideas to make a home, to pay attention to detail, to make one's life special by DOING little things, not just buying stuff. You´re wonderful

[@raqueltorres589]

Your program is my calming happy time, please don't change, 😍

[@melissak8892]

I have a quiet deliberate mind that gets cluttered and rushed by the more chaotic fast paced ones around me. Your videos make me feel like myself again.

[@finelooseleaftea]

I love your "ew" when scooping the pumpkin innards. The arrangement is beautiful. And....NICE SWEATER!

[@inproper3952]

You can use a hand mixer inside the pumpkin to get the insides out in a jiffy! Quick and so easy!

[@robertdunbar2434]

Nicolas, thank you for another heart-warming, soothing, and enjoyable video. I like the continuation of your autumn theme, along with your excellent choice of music. You are so genuine and authentic with everything you do. You encourage others to work outside their comfort zones. You are adventurous with trying new things and taking risks in front of your audience. You are a "gift" to others. All the best from New York, Robert.

[@christineryman579]

Well said Robert x

[@kateforsyth1133]

You touching squiggie things is hilarious! Fun video 😊

[@isabeltorres8717]

Beautiful indeed!!!!! Nicolas you are very sweet and kind. Thank you for sharing!!!!

[@TheDriftwoodlover]

This was wonderful. I especially like the idea of cheese scones. A few tips for you: use a glass jar inside the pumpkin (or even trim down a plastic disposable water bottle). I do this inside a chinoiserie ginger jar when I use it as a vase. Rose stems are supposed to be trimmed whilst submerged completely in a dish of water. This prevents the freshly cut edge from drying out and preventing water absorption. Don’t hate me - used to work in the flower industry. P.S. I have seen that book and love it too.

[@joliz1234]

Nicholas, the scones and soup looked delicious and you did a fantastic job with your floral arrangement!

[@annc2549]

thank you for the helpful tips! ❤

[@sheilaenglish3293]

Thanks for the tip. I suppose it would apply to any woody type stems. Hydrangeas?

[@Missfrankiecat]

Great rose trimming tip

[@AClavijo]

Your voice is so calming. My father just passed away last Wed and in the midst of trying to handle his affairs I'm watching you to keep me calm.

[@shay7090]

I just love how you made the sounds while mixing. I love your personality 🤗😀

[@teresareinhardt497]

Thank you for the beautiful video.Loved the pumkin flower arrangemet.I could watch and listen to your videos for hours.

[@marylkap6498]

@@teresareinhardt497 Yes, me too. It's therapeutic ☺️

[@nancyevans822]

Be sure and roast those pumpkin seeds! They are delicious!!!

[@susangroom3413]

Hi Nicholas, wishing you well. Loved the idea of a pumpkin 🎃 vase. Makes a good centre piece. I love the colour of the inside of the 🎃 beautiful orange. I love Scones especially when there homemade. We have Scones for breakfast. I love the Calmness you bring in the video. Take care.

[@Karl05]

My God, ❤ this is so healthy for my Soul, Your Music, Your Voice, the Flowers in the Pumpkin, soooo nice! Thank you so much! ❤️

[@ameliaclark5792]

The pumpkin looks beautiful. Another easy craft you can do is to just draw your house number on a pumpkin then get the gold or silver thumb tacks and push them in. You don’t even empty the pumpkin so they last longer. Put it at your front door and your done. I always get compliments on mine.

[@terrimayle9472]

I love your table, so elegant and festive. I enjoy doing the traditional proper decor in my younger years. I taught my daughter, she also at age of 8 attended a tea at the local bed and breakfast and they taught them about setting a table and making afternoon tea. She is now grown up and enjoy these things. It was lovely! I so enjoy your show! Thank you for sharing.

[@danib9845]

Your content is so calming, and a balm in the sometimes all-consuming negativity of the online world. Your channel gives me hope for a return to normalcy and decency. Thank you.

[@karenkoslowski2329]

I simply adore you. You have a keen eye for details and you’re a super smart and creative genius. I can’t wait to see what you do next. Stay well!

[@christineryman579]

Spot on Karen, well said x

[@johnrobinson2552]

Nicolas as always it's been a pleasure to spend time with you. Feel like I'm visiting an old friend. Cheers!

[@karenkammen2484]

This is a wonderful idea I’ve done it many times , and yes inserting a vase or container in the center helps so much better ❤️

[@timriehl1500]

I was thinking the same. That would be easier.

[@kellichandler2752]

Same

[@sideshowtink]

I love the idea of a pumpkin as a vase!

[@michelemeric9062]

Beautiful shades of orange, yellow and red.

[@am2722]

I am in love with Nicolas ❤️

[@barbarabrunson8588]

I was quite content until I saw your scones!! Now, I'll never be happy until I make them. I'm going to serve them with my delicious shrimp and grips next weekend , as I am having guests. Also, your table is a thing of beauty! Love the roses in the pumpkin. My favorite item you have is the nesting hen on your kitchen counter. Too, too cute! Thank you for the fun video. Barbara Brunson

[@JosieIrons]

Such a relaxing and wholesome video 🍂

[@ИринаИлиева-р8п]

Such a beautiful arrangement! Loved it!

[@corrinenolan344]

I'm watching thinking "he is just too good to be true....everything he does is so elegant" and then "eeeek ekkkkk eeeeekkk" with the flour. I laughed. You truly are so nice to watch.

[@sblackmore5931]

Nicolas, thank you for this elegant yet relaxed time with you. One tip if you don't like touching the flour and butter with your hands: Crisscross 2 butter knives and put them into the flour and butter. Pull them apart repeatedly until the butter is in small pieces and mixed well with the flour. In baking terms they call it cutting butter into flour.

[@doreenannafourie4125]

This is so lovely, thank you, I can just dream of such a lovely table setting for lunch. The scons are interesting.

[@maryjoymath3545]

Oh Nicholas!! The scones look perfect! The pumpkin vase, who knew!! The flowers were a colorfully matching addition!! Well, as always lovely spending this time with u!!💕💕🦋🦋💕💕

[@agabert7318]

Greetings Nicolas! Your video was awesome, waiting for me to watch when I got back from Church. This morning was a little something different for my wife's Sunday School class. For an example of answered Prayer, she took in "Dude" our kitten, who was returned to us by awesome golfers from the local Golf Course last month. Dude had stowed away under my Brother In Law's car, and went missing for a day and a half. The children were thrilled by the rescue story. Love your Channel! A 🇨🇦

[@robertdunbar2434]

Thank you for sharing that great comment. It is wonderful to hear that people are praying and teaching Sunday School classes. You and your wife bring hope to our world. God bless you both. Robert

[@montyduskin4610]

CALMING !! INTERESTING !! THANK YOU 😊

[@sharrontaylor4744]

Trial and/or error 😉👍🇺🇸🎃 Plus you can bake pumpkin seeds w/favorite seasoning !! TFS 🍂🍁

[@patriciasalem3606]

Yes! Came to the comments to say just that. Pumpkin seeds are full of protein and make a healthy snack.

[@chambielion70]

Nice to see the warm bit of colour from the arrangement complimenting the soft glow of the lampshades . Lifts the spirits .😁

[@misspaula7542]

Never have I seen a pumpkin used in this way, how beautiful it looked on the table 😍 Cheese scones...yes please! Have a wonderful new week darlin. Lots of love from Las Vegas✨✨✨✨

[@jeromeburdine966]

Love how you are so elegant yet at the same time you are real, like the rest of us.

[@pw4075]

Beautiful autumnal centerpiece; it really complements your table-scape perfectly. Maybe using a small plastic take-out container instead of the foil lining might work better ... just a thought.

[@melmay581]

The pumpkin vase turned out beautiful. I’m certainly going to try this. Turning ingredients into breadcrumbs is my worst nightmare, I start off well and then it never happens probably because I need to stop and enjoy the moment but crikey it takes so long. Thank you for another peaceful, enjoyable, inspirational video x

[@lindap6150]

You are such a good host! Beautiful and cozy video. The scones and soup look good. Love the pumpkin arrangement, never thought of that! Thanks and have a lovely week!

Take care.🍮🍮🍮🌲🌲🌲❤️❤️❤️💐💐💐💐

[@ТатьянаМалиновская-и7в]

Flower pumpkin is fantastic idea for the autumn decoration! It is not a new one ( as they say in their comments), but the way you give life to the fall in your house takes me back to England - the country I love dearly; everything you do in this video is really heart warming! Thank you so much! Hope this idea will bring something English to my house in Belarus... Have a good week, my friend!

[@gardeninggrandma5247]

I really enjoy your channel. You offer a nice variety of topics. The cooking segments are great, as you offer recipes I don't normally see elsewhere. Since you don't like to blend butter and flour mixtures by hand, have you ever tried using a pastry blender? It is also called a butter cutter or dough blender. Just a thought, as I don't like blending dough either!!

[@corneliaarendsen8215]

The pumpkin vase with the roses is beautiful and an original idea for my autumn table. The cheese scones look delicious.

[@jillychandler]

Wow Nicolas, I love your courage in always trying something new, the pumpkin vase came out beautifully! I love the shade of roses you chose, perfect for autumn, a colour that makes one think of deep friendship and joy. The cheese scones with soup was a brilliant idea, you set the table so well for yourself, I'm inspired. Thank you too for taking us to that beautiful book store, I'm happy that there are people who enjoy going through a physical book as much as I do, it was so enchanting to peruse through it with you

[@marylkap6498]

Nicolas, you are a shining example to all of us, young and more mature ☺️ on how to slow down and enjoy moments of life. And I will recommend your videos to my family and my students.

[@christineryman579]

Ooh I'm starving, those scones look simply delicious, I will definitely try them, thankyou, what a good idea of yours, you're always so creative it's amazing. And the soup looked scrumptious too, I agree, nothing better than home made soup with bread or cheese scones now! And your decor is stunning as always, you never disappoint. I love your kindness xx

[@KayeCarterTV]

Those scones looked so delicious. You may have done a video on the soup? If so, I will look in the description to see if it’s there for the recipe. Sending hugs, prayers and kindness. Thanks again for a great video.😊

[@anne321]

Hi Nicolas thanks for sharing this delightful video. Such a beautiful floral display & delicious looking cheese scones - they are a favourite of mine though I never thought to have them with soup before, I will now! I enjoy your calm voice & unhurried manner. Take care x

[@eleni1968]

Thank You Nicolas!! This is a pretty terrific idea but I think you should have cooked this pumpkin and made the soup recipe on your website. This pumpkin with its deep red-orange flesh is great for soups. We eat this variety here in NYC [and North East US] in the Fall and Winter months. This variety is also great roasted in the oven with cinnamon , nutmeg and honey and toast the seeds as well. FYI: if the pumpkin is labeled as "organic", its' highly likely it can be eaten. There are pumpkins that cannot be eaten so easily that this design idea can used for. Cheers and Hugs from NYC!!!

[@kathrynbellerose6216]

Lovely as always Nicholas, Could you tell us where you found the butter pat dish and small cover? I have never seen one like it before in all my travels internationally. Are they antiques and do you have more of them? Any news on the handmade rug you ordered? I do know it takes lots of time on these Custom orders. But in the end they are worth the wait as Antiques in the making ..Beautiful channel Nicholas, Bravo.
