Jen I'm so excited, I'm one of your Cape Town audience and a piece in Sick was written by a best friend of mine, Mishka/Tariq Hoosen. If you liked his piece you must check out his articles in Catapult, that are all about scent, disability, and folklore, and his novella Call it a Difficult Night
Thanks for another lovely vlog. I'm currently reading Are Prisons Obsolete? by Angela Y. Davis (after hearing Jean talk about her so much on her channel I'm finally getting around to checking Davis out) and listening to the audiobook A Stranger in Town by Kelley Armstrong.
lovely video as always! id have to go with custard and warm pie for me! At the moment i am reading Messenger from the quartet series The giver by lois lowry i really love it but due to studying ive not been able to read as much as id want to but hopefully when i break up soon i can read to my hearts content!!
I love your spring mug and jumpsuit combo. Will be checking out the poetry shared in the description. Lol also realised I’ve never made lasagna before, it seems like so much work but it looked delicious I love short story collections, getting into them this year - that Deidre Sullivan hook sounds very interesting. Adding it to my imaginary TBR.
Mr. M's preference on the pie! Loved the pie baking footage. It's gloomy with occasional flakes of snow here in Alaska so I was happy to be taken somewhere else. :)
Thank you Jen! I just love your videos, specially vlogs with books&food 😊 I’ll order The republic of motherhood and the remaining books of Franklin (I have the first one only 😉 and lovebit!). At the moment I’m reading The Aosawa murders by Riku Onda (due to you 😍), I’m finding it highly intriguing 😃 stay safe
Made scones just before i saw you upload this. Scoffing scones while I watched you bake was wonderful. Bought Open Water by Caleb Nelson and Exciting Times by Naoise Dolan from the Stockport Waterstone's the other day - felt so good being able to browse bookshops in person again. Remember you going to the big prize night that Liz Berry won for that poem so is nice to hear you talk about that collection again.
We have been so deprived of Jen's baking lately! But all is well now. Currently reading Piranesi, and I, personally as a lover of highly evocative fableine nonsense, am quite loving it.
I'm laughing at myself because the thing that stands out the most for me in this video is that you made lasagna in a round dish. LOL. Lasagna isn't inherently a particular shape, but because for 60 plus years I've only seen lasagna baked or served in shapes with four corners, the round shape surprised me. What I'm reading? I just finished The Book of Lost Friends by Lisa Wingate, which was a wonderful choice by my local book club, and a poetry collection, Time and Materials by Robert Hass. I'm making my way through two books about nature bit by bit - The Nature of Oaks by Douglas W. Tallamy and Entangled Life by Merlin Sheldrake. And I'm halfway through a middle grade book called Nevermoor - The Trials of Morrigan Crow by Jessica Townsend.
Excellent video Jen! The pie and lasagna looked delicious! I prefer warm pie with ice cream. I also like to add caramel on top of my apple pie. I'd be interested in a video of the different words used in England that are not used in the US. 💗
I love videos like this with lots of books and baking/cooking😄 Also really love the pattern of your dungarees. Do you know the brand materia Rica btw? They make sustainable wooden jewelry. I always think of you when I see their necklaces haha (parasocial relationships or something right...)
I'm actually reading a series that I have borrowed from the library on Overdrive. It is the Lady Helen Series of books by Alison Goodman, and I am on the second of three novels called The Dark Days Pacts and it is paranormal. I also have Loveless by Alice Oseman and Cinderella is Dead still to read. On paperback I am reading a rather excellent series called Mrs Hudson and Holmes mysteries by Martin Davies and I am on the last book of the series there.
Hey Jen just wanted to pop in to say how pretty you look in this outfit! :) Also 'The Beginning of the World in the Middle of the Night' arrived yesterday and i'm really looking forward on reading it. It's my first novel in english. So far i've only read graphic novels in english. Always been kinda intimidated to read a whole book in english, since my attention span is not the best ^^, and my first language is german, but since there is no translation out yet, i thought i'll give it a try! PS: I'm already in love with the cover!!
I hope you enjoy it. :) It's a short story collection, not a novel, so that should help with the attention-span bit. I love short story collections for that reason x
@@jenvcampbell meant short story collection not novel, sorry. Yeah that was my thought aswell. I also like, how language and story can be really "dense", (if that makes sense), and still not be hard to read, over a long period of time. Even though a long novel, has it's own beauty of course. :)
My preference would be warm apple pie, with vanilla ice-cream on the side, yum.. your pie looks delicious! I wonder if you used any berries or food colouring though? The apple chunks in the pot looked vibrantly beet-red after cooking... or was that just the cinnamon? Unfortunately none of those books you mentioned are available to me on Overdrive (my library hasn't purchased those titles) 😕...oh well, my TBR is long enough as it is! Love your vids!
I think there are several Nicci French books being republished this year!! The unheard is brand new and then there are two more that are old but are being republished!!
Thank you for including links to Sick magazine after a bit of a flat day this vlog cheered me up I’m not a Pie fan really or lasagne either actually I’m weird according to my family 😂
That lasagna looks sooo good! Do you know if there are any plans to translate the Franklin and Luna series to Norwegian? I would love to get them for my niece, but she's tiny so she doesn't speak english:)
Thames and Hudson pitch to publishers of all languages, but we haven’t had a Norwegian publisher who has bought the rights yet. It has been translated into 12 other languages, so never say never. You can always keep an eye on my website where translated versions are listed. x
As an English teacher in Japan who has to teach American English, I'm constantly being confronted with the fact that so many of our phrases aren't understood by Americans 😅
Oh I love cook and read/buy books. Good start to day. ! Lovey clothes colours, s o spring like, bathed the dog and removed her coat.
I love your spring outfit
100% warm with ice cream 🍨
I really enjoyed the jaunty lasagne tune!!

talking to the camera in second-person is so cozy and lovely. 11:38

Love seeing you cooking the pie . Thanks . Yummy. The music you put while cooking is wonderful also.
You look fabulous and ideal for Spring. X👌

Haha this lasagne section is so jolly.
That pie looks amaaazing. I'm currently reading A Long Petal Of The Sea by Isabel Allende and Sontag: Her Life and Work by Benjamin Moser.

Oh my that lasagne looked heavenly - and the pie!! I always love finding out there's extra money on cards or vouchers :D
I love your outfit and your style🌞🥰

I wouldn't ever put it in that dish, but my other ones were in the dishwasher, ha.
@@jenvcampbell LOL
That lasagna looked scrumptious! 😋
Your vlogs are SO relaxing and always put me in the mood to cook and read! Thank you for making them! Also, your dungarees are so stunning 🥰
The Unheard sounds absolutely amazing. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on it. Also, I loved watching the lasagne making montage 🖤
Day old. Heated with vanilla ice cream. With a cup of Yorkshire tea.
Hot with custard definitely my preference! but i would happily also just have a bowl of custard.
Excellent video Jen! The pie and lasagna looked delicious! I prefer warm pie with ice cream. I also like to add caramel on top of my apple pie. I'd be interested in a video of the different words used in England that are not used in the US. 💗

Watching this video as a clay mask hardens over my face and it is so difficult to watch without breaking into smiles. 💕😍😐
Apple pie: Hot with custard - or cream or ice cream even - all would be good - and wow it looked so good.
Ahhh everything looks delicious. I bet your flat always smells amazing! Currently reading Disability Visibility (as per your recommendation) :)
I'm so pleased to hear that Lauren has had her little one, I hope they are doing very well.
She's posted some photos online, too instagram.com/p/CN4Y-QCre11/ x

Love your spring outfit! And that lasagne is mouthwatering
Also it is not too much your outfit is amazing 🤩
Great video! Now I have to go and watch some others of your videos because its never enough. Thanks, The pie and the lasagna, really mouthwatering.
That montage was beautiful ❤️
Pie preference - hot the first day, cold the second :P
It absolutely confuses me that different editions use different words; if you don't know a word, look it up?
I just finished reading _Sitting Pretty_ and am still in the process of reading _Nine Rules to Break While Romancing a Rake._
Both the pie and the lasagne looks sooo delicious!
My preference would be warm apple pie, with vanilla ice-cream on the side, yum.. your pie looks delicious! I wonder if you used any berries or food colouring though? The apple chunks in the pot looked vibrantly beet-red after cooking... or was that just the cinnamon? Unfortunately none of those books you mentioned are available to me on Overdrive (my library hasn't purchased those titles) 😕...oh well, my TBR is long enough as it is! Love your vids!
I added mixed berries x
I think there are several Nicci French books being republished this year!! The unheard is brand new and then there are two more that are old but are being republished!!
One of them is called the other side of the door and it sounds sooooo Similar to the lying room. Hemmmmmmmm
Clicked so fast!
Notification squad. :)
Does anyone know the baking recipe ? 😍 I would love to bake this!
Hot pie with cold custard, every time.
how many dishes you trying to do!
Thank you for including links to Sick magazine after a bit of a flat day this vlog cheered me up
I’m not a Pie fan really or lasagne either actually I’m
weird according to my family 😂
Have you read Love Letters of the Angels of Death? I am loving the writing.

Cooking in a white top? You sure do love to live on the edge. 😆
😅
Hi Jen, not sure if I missed it in the video, any follow up on where the pamphlet might be available in not-PDF form?
That particular pamphlet was only available as a pdf but the physical pamphlet I bought is linked in the video description x
hey, you're lovely,
please tell ut where you got those spring overalls??

Jen, sorry for the off-topicness of this comment but can you reveal where you bought your mermaid necklace that you often wear? I like it so much!

Flagged as violent content 😂😂

Blood pie? Why it sound idea for wirting

The phone ringing made me glance at my own phone, thinking it was ringing.
Haha, sorry, I was even doing that myself when editing and then again when adding captions! x
@@jenvcampbell it made me smile...it felt like being in the same coffeeshop and making that mistake together.
I know the drill. I love the drill.
