    Slow living isn’t a trend for me. It's a lifestyle I have embraced for years; I learned it from my mom and grandma. We always just took our time to enjoy the beauty of the everyday. I’m a romantic at heart, with a practical lifestyle approach to “keep it simple.” I grew up on a farm, which furthered my love of simplicity and back to the basics mindset.
    We moved two years ago to our cozy cottage aka - "mobile home", and we are in the process of fixing it up. I strive to make our home cozy and inviting no matter what remodeling stage we are in. Making a home hygge and cozy is just a normal way of life for me, and I can’t imagine it any other way.

    There's nothing embarrassing about using something until it gets as worn as that towel. I actually admire it and think we need to do more of that. We have become such a throwaway society.

    • @ForgottenWayFarms

      My favorite towel is an old linen printed with fruit. At some point it belonged to my MIL and she was born 1922. I use it every week to cover my bread Doug on its final rise. It’s tattered and worn but I can’t bring myself to toss it yet. I think now that I’ve made this comment, I’ll do my least favorite job and darn it to make it last until my kids probably throw it away upon my death. Or, might they ask, “what was so special about this towel that Mom would keep it past its time.”

      My towels are worn and full of holes, and that's when they become absorbent . You shop the way I do, very practical but with a little home decor mixed in😊. Your kitchen is beautiful!

    I chuckled at your very calm response to your Spode dishes. I watch a gal who collects Spode and just about does back flips each time she scores a piece of Spode from the thrift stores. You might want to do a bit of research on your very nice find…you might be surprised. I also have to congratulate Hunny for the copper find which is also a very good score. I absolutely love thrifting and getting things at very reasonable prices, it makes my heart happy. I have been married for 43 years and still go thrifting mostly at Habitat for Humanity these days. Most of my thrifting is done during Jacks dialysis days but I prefer to thrift with him. Life has really changed in our home in the past year with all the health issues Hunny has been through so now thrifting is a way for me to shut my mind off from so much uncertainty. Some days I just look and sometimes I find great treasures. I so enjoy all your vlogs but when you go thrifting it is a joy to see what you find. I am also a gardener and books are my winter gardening. I am so glad your daughter loves to get her hands in the soil, it’s a worth while skill for her entire life to have and it really helps the household budget when we grow right down to the flowers! As a master gardener I always want to see more young gardeners. Sending you many prayers and wishes as we are now deep into the holiday and winter season. I think of you often as the weather reports are heard knowing you get far more winter white up in the UP than I do down here in the middle of the mitten. Thanks for enlightening and an entertaining me with yet another very nice visit. Blessings to you and all your family!!!:):):)

      That’s too funny 😂 I was rather calm ❤️❤️❤️ I love red and white dishes but I don’t collect any one kind. However, those are stunning pieces! I’m glad you get out and enjoy thrifting too. Prayers for Jack and all you are going through 🙏 hang in there. Blessings to you both ❤️

    I love your thrift finds! The dresser is so cute and perfect! That’s what I always choose to do for my birthday date, too - thrifting and a nice meal out.🥰
    My favorite recent thrift finds are a cast iron Christmas tree stand, and a Johnson Bros “Coaching Scenes” platter. My husband also scored a nice pair of end tables/nightstands at the “Bonner Mall” yesterday.
    Your Thanksgiving feast looks like it was amazing, and I love your new work station!

    You managed your voice challenges well, Abby Jo. I relate to what you say about things well used, valued and replaced thriftily as needed. Pleased you enjoyed time away with your husband on your shopping expedition ahead of the cold and snow. I'm in Sydney, Australia in hibernation due to heatwave but I enjoy homemaking and many of the cold climate traditions. Lovely that your garden supplies your kitchen: the connect between cooking and growing is precious. Greetings of the Season to you and you family!🥀🌻🌼

    I think we have the same wishes for our Birthday’s!
    My Birthday was early November and my husband and I went to the Amish Countryside near us. I was able to go thrifting, and have lunch, and just did simple things.
    My husband who isn’t really a shopper always acts like it’s the best thing he’s ever done on my Birthday.😁
    I love the red dishes you found!
    I think a studded orange with cloves, and pine on the side in that soup bowl would make a beautiful Christmas decoration!
    Thank you for a great video! It was wonderful!

    November is also my birthday and wedding anniversary month! (Belated well-wishes to you on both of yours!)
    I love your plate rack and back splash! I had been thinking of putting up a brick back splash in our kitchen because it reminds me of my childhood home kitchen--and we finally did it this summer! I love it. Now for that plate rack....someone tell Santa!
    Love your channel. Our family is walking through a bad time with my Mom right now. She has Parkinson's and isn't well at all and just got out of the hospital. I'm trying to make Christmas--the lead up to it and everything--nice even though we are all a bit sad about my Mom's state of health. We still have a 140yo at home and I want her to have good holiday memories, and we have 2 grandchildren as well.
    Thanks for a calm, relaxing, hygge break in my day! God bless you.

    Hi Abby Jo. Happy Belated Birthday, dear one. I loved this video for so many reasons. Watching you and your daughters preparing your Thanksgiving feast was so calming and enjoyable. Your new addition to your pantry is so nice and efficient. I'm happy for you that the thought came to fruition. I just adore your home and how you've made it so warm and cozy. The trip to the thrifting shop was fun. I love that large green bowl you found. As you were putting away all your bulk shopping items into canisters, the cocoa one with the red cover caught my eye. I'm assuming that was a past thrift item? It looks very old and quaint. Until next time, take good care and stay well.

    Happy birthday and happy anniversary!! Your house after thrifting and doing a grocery haul looks very familiar. We do the same thing by buying bulk and it takes a while to organize and put up but it’s so worth it. It keeps you out of the stores weekly so much. Your kitchen work area turned out great. Salt boxes are perfect. We have two of them. The wool blanket is beautiful.

    So love your kitchen Abbyjo and the way it has evolved. Much prefer an unfitted kitchen as it has far more usefulness and character. Tricia x

    I really enjoyed this video. (I actually love them all!) This time of year is so special and we love it. We are thankful every single day. These cooler seasons filled with family, blessings & thankfulness are our favorites. Your views of homemaking are much like mine, even though our decorating and design "styles" are different. I love antique and vintage items and have an appreciation for other decorating styles as well. What makes cottage core so delightful to me is the peacefulness and beauty in every day living. Something that I have always strived for, but never knew there was a name for it, until I happened upon your channel awhile back. Wishing you and your family a beautiful Christmas and a Blessed New Year. 💙 P.S. I could hear you very well in this video. I hope whatever was affecting the sound last time has been taken care of. Thank you! 😊

      Awww 🥰 I agree with you on so many points ❤️ it’s a very special time of year. Slow cottage living is peaceful and I strive to embrace all the joy and beauty in the everyday. Kindred spirits. I think something was wrong with our mic and we had to readjust it. Glad you could hear everything good 😊

    What a beautiful way to end my Sunday. It was such a lovely video to find this evening. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your Family. All the food looks so delicious 😋 What a nifty salt cellar, I love the wool throw, the beautiful crystal lamp, and the white and red soup bowls. I can imagine you were so excited to find the small dresser and side table. Happy Birthday 🎉 and I hope you’ve had a wonderful Birthday week. ~ Janet 💕

    What a wonderful kitchen you have! And when I saw you purchase those dishes at the thrift shop, I didn’t realize I would get to see them put to use! You have taught your daughters exceptionally well, as they are so capable of helping you do wonderful things in your lovely kitchen! All the things you had for your amazing Thanksgiving dinner were surely beyond delicious!

    Happy Belated Birthday. I haven't seen you in a few months.So glad I happened up this November video. Love how your daughter helps you with baking. My daughters were not that interested in cooking when they were at home, but now that they are married, they are all good cooks. I also love ALDI's. I live less than two hours south of the bridge. Wouldn't it be fun to meet at a Consignment shop? Maybe we could plan that sometime in the summer. also, can you post your pie crust recipe, mine does not roll out as easy as yours looks.

    • @ForgottenWayFarms

    I love your new work station esp with the little dresser and cake/bread cabinet - beautiful and useful. You did well on thrifting. The red & white soup bowls and plate are precious and can be used for Christmas decorations. I must say Thanksgiving dinner looked incredibly appetizing. Blessings to you and your family, stay safe & warm, prayers 🕊🙏🙋‍♀️

    Just like you , we make sure any towelling is used to its fullest before replacing. Sometimes, like our bath mat a few months ago , it then didn't even have enough of itself left to move to the rag box when i finally replaced it . Haha.
    I love your thrifted pieces. I cant remember ever seeing a copper salt pot but its gorgeous and in fantastic condition. I finally got my ceremic white one with little blue flowers😅 and last week found a vintage sifter with a similar enough pattern to go on the kitchen shelves when we eventually do them. All the food looks incredible! ❤❤❤ The green bowl is the perfect size to catch the fresh ground flour too. Thank you for a beautiful video sweetheart ❤❤

    • @ForgottenWayFarms
      @ForgottenWayFarms  Před 9 měsíci +1

      Yes, it's a very use it up wear it out around here :) I wanted a blue and white one, but when we found the copper one, I knew that was the one for me! Tis the season for good food, hope you are having a blessed week friend! hugs xx

    We are so alike in so many ways, sharing so many of the same interests, etc! Don't be alarmed or embarrassed about your textiles. I purchase mine in bulk because I use vinegar (that may not always be fully diluted😬) to wash dishes and clean the kitchen with. As a result, my kitchen towels/textiles begin to disintegrate as well.🤣😅😁 Your purchases are so lovely AJ!😍

      I did, on Etsy. Where I am so far south I never see the really good antiques that the northern states have an abundance of, it seems and the items you find when thrifting. By the way, did you ever finish reading Cranford? I did and came away that although I did like the book, I like the series better. I ordered the dvd's, I get so much from them each time I watch. @@ForgottenWayFarms

    “yes” out loud!😂
    Beautiful meal! (I see you must like Vernors ginger ale too!)

    Saying hello from snowy and very cold Colorado. I enjoy your videos. A recent subscriber. What a find, that copper salt box!! It's gorgeous. I adore you for showing your dish towel.
