Tea Time in the Cottage Garden | SLOW LIVING Summer day | Simple Living Home

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Hello, friends. Hope you are having a lovely summer. In the video I asked you all what your favorite flower is??? I go crazy over roses, peonies, and really all of them ;) Sorry, it's really hard to pick! Hope you enjoy this slow summer day at the cottage.

[@LadyBeeSting2434]

I’m the same way with flowers and color and nature. Enjoyed the video, it’s getting way hot here in south Texas and I’m kicking myself for letting myself sleep in instead of getting up early to replant. I am so glad to have stumbled across your channel. My roses are in full bloom and so many others that I have no idea to the name of 😁

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

@@LadyBeeSting2434 That’s wonderful, I bet you have to get up early to beat the heat! I’m such a wimp when it gets hot, I’m used to more temperate temperatures. However, we are going to have 100+ weather for the next five days 🥵 not too excited about that. Roses are just dreamy and I’m always cutting a few buds for my kitchen window ❤️ So glad you found our channel, welcome!

[@MissNatashaMarie]

I always have to have geraniums! I add a few to the collection every year, I’m glad they overwinter inside so well. Sweet alyssum, and my wild flower corner are also my favorites.🥰

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

@@MissNatashaMarie Yes to all of those! I have a beautiful white geranium on my picnic table that I am enamored with right now. ❤️❤️❤️

[@carolinestafford8234]

Roses, lilacs, clover, and dandelions. ❤️ They're the scents of my childhood. (Pine trees and wood smoke are also favorite smells, but they're not flowers!)

[@roxananunez4238]

Ever since I found your videos I enjoy every minute of it 🙏my beloved son passed away almost 51/2 years ago and for me flowers 🌸 gardening brings me so much joy 🙏it makes my grieving a lot easier 😞😪

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Thank you, so glad you enjoy them. And I am so sorry for your loss, I'm glad that flower gardening brings you joy and helps with your grieving.

I love the black fence and agree with your vision! I painted an accent wall in my herbal apothecary black for the same reason! My dream is an all white, night blooming forest lush moon garden. Your afternoon tea was a dreM🥰🤗🙏🏽. I recently did a video on an Midsummer Afternoon tea with an edible fairy ring you and your kids might enjoy! Those cupcakes look delicious 😋! I had all the feels watching you both at the island cooking together 🥺🙏🏽. I always dreamed of children and family. I was not so blessed. So thank you, for sharing yours with me. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@chromespeed5]

During the garden meal, enjoying watching the set up of the table, my emotions overcame me and I began to cry...painfully. There is something so incredibly and spiritually moving when we come into contact with the true spirit of living that God intended with his creations. All one has to do in order to feel their perverbial cup overflowing is to stop, live in each moment, really look with your heart as well as your eyes. Listen...and truly hear. Feel, with all of your senses, the love that is put into every aspect of the acts you are witnessing as well as performing. Oh my goodness! ....we are so amazingly blessed. Who knew life really IS a bowl of cherries!? Thank you so very much for sharing your love. It was received with gratitude and tears. Linda Rodriguez

[@jennymartin4213]

Your voice is so calming, and relaxing while I make breakfast for my son, and I since my husband leaves for work very early we light a candle, and enjoy the time together! You have really encouraged me to just slow down, and use the dishes I love that I’ve thrifted, and just enjoy the art of homemaking I often feel guilty since I only have one child that I don’t need to stay home. Through your channel I’ve learned I’m doing something very important. Thank you.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

This means a lot to hear; I'm so glad you are encouraged! It does matter, and there should be no guilt. What a canvas you have enjoy it fully :)
