    Hi Carla! What a lovely, cozy video! The soup looked absolutely delicious and those homemade biscuits you showed made my mouth water!
    I too love baby’s breath and what a great idea for candle wreath! I also loved the heart you made with the leftovers and other flowers, so pretty! Perfect for Valentine’s!

    I put a large bouquet of baby's breath in a vase alone with water & it lasts AGES. Such beautiful winter white, delicate small flowers. Best bang for your buck in cut flowers.

    • @mynewenglandstory
      @mynewenglandstory  6 місяців тому

      I agree! They can sometimes be hard to find (Bouquets of just Baby's Breath) though, but such a delicate beautiful flower.

    Hi Carla! I enjoyed watching you make the wreath and candle ring. Your home is beautiful and so warm. I live in Tennessee and we just had a week of snow. 10 to 12 inches. It is very RARE that we get that much snow. We don't get snow very often. We also had very cold weather which was in the teens and single digits. It was beautiful to look at. It started last weekend and is still on the ground and roads. I really love your videos, like when you go to different towns. I don't get to come that way, so it is nice to see. The church at the end of the video is beautiful. Thank you for sharing and have a Blessed week.

    Hint for soup or gravy: to dissolve flour in a second, just put some liquid and the flour in a small jar, put the lid on tightly and shake....voila. No lumps in a few seconds. Add to the soup.
    Love, love your snow scenes.- simply beautiful.

    • @mynewenglandstory
      @mynewenglandstory  6 місяців тому

      Yes, that is normally how I do it (like when adding a thickener for gravy), but this recipe had you do it this way, so I tried it. Thank you Marie and enjoy your week!

    I have less than a handful of videos I watch regularly. This is one of them. Love what you’re doing on your channel! Linda mentioned you & she where going thrifting. That’s one of my favorite things to do with a girlfriend. Blessing’s from Bethlehem, New Hampshire!❤

    • @mynewenglandstory
      @mynewenglandstory  6 місяців тому +1

      Thank you SO much Gina, that means a lot. Yes, we went thrifting and lunching the other day and had a lot of laughs as usual. We also checked out the new Ben's Sugar Shack in Temple. I would definitely recommend it if you're in the area....it has only been open roughly a month and is now a Store carrying so many fun products (a lot New England made) and also has a Deli/Cafe. Stay warm!!

      What a very pretty introduction to your video Carla, love all the whites against the snowy background, it all looks so lovely. Gypsophila is one of my favourite flowers, it looks lovely mixed with other flowers or just on its own in a pot, but the garland you made is beautiful, I will definitely give it a go. Thank you for sharing & the yummy soup recipe, we are due a lot of rain over here so now I have two projects to tackle.. Kind regards…☺️

    Very calming and beautiful video embracing January. My favorite colors are white, mushroom and the color of sand. The soup looks delicious! The candle ring among the shells makes a pretty picture. Thanks for posting today! 🤍❄️ 🍲

    Wonderful video, Carla!
    Oh my goodness, when I saw that you were making mushroom/leek soup I couldn’t wait to get your recipe. I’m passionate about mushroom dishes but had never even thought of adding leeks into the soup. Thank you for that!
    The baby’s breath craft is just precious, well done! Every time you show your home’s interior it looks more & more cozy - your hard work & your husband’s is really paying off.
    The outdoor scenes are gorgeous, I so yearn to live in New England - wintertime there is so beautiful!

    Your candle ring turned out beautiful. The heart shaped wreath is so pretty.You made me so hungry with your mushroom soup. I will be making some soon. The snow coming down is just wonderful. You live in a beautiful part of the country and your home is decorated so beautifully. Enjoying your video’s.

    Hi Carla , pretty snow fall there... we had our share of cool snow here in NE Indiana , it is winter right !! The soup looks cozy .. could you use the same base and make clam chowder?? Your candle ring turned out so pretty ! Stay safe ! hugs Paula

    • @mynewenglandstory
      @mynewenglandstory  6 місяців тому

      Thank you Paula. I think Clam Chowder needs a more creamy base than this was, this wasn't as thick and creamy as I've had in a Chowder. Have a great week!!
