Apple butter is essentially applesauce cooked down further and used more like a jam. Very good! Applesauce is great canned as well.
I kid you not, I really struggle to be motivated and then you post a video and pretty much immediately, I feel like getting up and trying something new. I think it's just helpful seeing someone else having a good time doing literally anything. lol Thank you!
Honestly Immy, you're so comforting that I would watch you boil water, lol. Thank you for sharing your life with us.
👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆 same
I usually don't comment really on YT, but I just wanted to say how much joy and comfort your videos bring me! They motivate me to also pick up new skills that are useful and fun, like knitting! :) Thank you for all these videos and I'm excited for the rest of the month!
If it's easier to do a vlog like this, like once a month or something, it'd be so nice to see! I love just going along with people calmly doing life things
I don't know how else to say this but your videos reset my nervous system.
I am so impressed that you are knitting in the height of summer, I never can!
I just started following you this year, and I wanted to say that I truly love your videos so much! They really resonate with me so deeply to my core... and I just love how honest and real you are with sharing your struggles with staying consistent, and learning by trial and error. Your calm energy and your desire to learn and grow are just so lovely. Thank you for sharing your life with us! 🥰
I love hearing your English words! 😀 I'm very impressed with your knitting, especially sweaters/jumpers!. I haven't done it for awhile, but I never broke out of doing hats and scarves. And then my cat started chewing holes in anything I knit... no matter what kind of yarn I used, even acrylic. And it was just things I knit, not store-bought hats. I have to hide anything I make very well!
I have always liked your content very much, but you picking up knitting and the whole trying new things (skilled girl)…I am here for it all the way. When I am having a bad day, or just a bad moment. I find that knitting or tidying (something that physically occupies my hands) really helps me feel better.
Speaking of motivation and bike rides, I bike way more than I would if I didn’t have a dog. I’m not really into exercising, but the fact that daily exercise isn’t optional for her really motivates me to get out of the house and move my body. I like riding my bike with her running beside me on a paved trail that goes along the river a few blocks from where we live. It’s very gratifying to see her smile when we get home (I know she’s panting, but it looks like she’s smiling and I know she’s happy)
That's a good spot for bike riding, so quiet and less crowded than other trails nearby. I enjoy the rambling video, thanks for sharing!
Please forever say jumper!!! Makes me think of Ginny from Harry Potter!!! Be your lovely British self! Also to reiterate what you fjnd surprising: Love your videos and your perspective and honesty…bloody brilliant!
Immy, your idea of random matches my idea of random🤣 I have so much love for popsicles, home-baked bread, fresh veggies, cycling, and knitting or making hand-made stuff. Immy, do you find that knitting is complex relaxation? I think knitting (and sewing) is the perfect blend of hands-on productivity based with chill time. Please keep calling it a “jumper” cuz it sounds so charming (way more charming than “sweater”). Update on the popsicles (if you feel so inclined) would be awesome!! Thanks for taking the time to chat with us. I am loving Vlogust and I enjoy and appreciate your scope on life. Ⓜary💕
I think this is probably not recent enough for you to read this comment but just wanted to let you know your videos are what I come back to whenever I’m scared or upset or anxious for comfort! I also often watch one before bed as I find them very peaceful after a long day :)
It is, and I appreciate you! Thank you so much for taking the time to let me know xx
i enjoy your videos so much, i just love watching people cook, especially foods from scratch because it shows me that it’s not always as difficult as you may think
Lol that was so cute and wholesome you saying sweater instead of jumper at the end
Ha ha! It is soooo hard not to pick up vocabulary in your new country. I’m an American living in Australia with my partner and at first I refused to use any Australian vocab, but the other day I said to-mah-toe instead of to-mae-toe literally just slipped out 😂
Canning… it’s like summer saved up in a jar and stored away in your pantry for a rainy day. Some would say that everything is better in a mason jar. I just thought I would say that, despite having helped my Mom with canning as a child, I was quite nervous the first time I went solo. Some free unsolicited advice would be to read your book, follow the basic ‘canning rules’, and avoid winging it when you’re just starting out. You’ll be fine, Immy, and I just know you will love those glistening jars full of summer preserves!! PS - I love to hear what you have to say, I miss Ralphie too, and “Ice Lollies” is a great term… hang onto that one (and jumper too)?? Ⓜary💕🫙
I would like to hear more about the differences of living un the UK vs USA. you barely touched on it at the end, I'm interestedin hearing more about it.
Been on holiday for a week and didn‘t have time to watch UA-cam so I can‘t wait to catch up on all your videos. This was already so comforting and cosy and I love how openly you share your thoughts in this one - always, but in this video especially❤
Immy I can't wait until the jumper is done and you are wearing it. ❤❤
You definitely got the best book to help with preserving. Ball gives so many easy options and tips for where you live. Best of luck 🤞
I always love watching your videos, Immy. Even when they are heavy on the food prep (I am not a Foodie and I only eat to stay alive. LOL). I love seeing little snatches of your beloved with you. I love your cozy home there in Denver. And I admire your desire to learn and grow. You are just interesting. 😊(And I love your accent.) Thanks so much for sharing your life with us. ♥♥♥
My hubby is from the UK. I lived in Esssex for 3 years. To this day, I have picked up words or pronunciations from living in England so I can relate lol. When someone doesn't understand something my hubby said, I help by saying I speak Brit to explain what he said 😂
Wow, this is so nice you motivate me to learn new things. I also just retired to Jamaica and I've changed my diet a lot eating more plant-based. I just found your Channel and did a little marathon you have so many things I would like to do especially canning and preserving foods and baking, these things I didn't do much when I was working. I enjoy watching you in the calm atmosphere in your kitchen it's very relaxing. I'm learning a lot here in Jamaica as well so thanks for great ideas all the best to you
Everyone thinks their "rambling" videos are not interesting...but I think they are the most interesting! They are natural, and I believe I see the creator's personality even more. I love your honesty about yourself and your life here in the United States. When you mentioned Cherry Creek State Park my ears perked up! In 1981 I visited my friend, who at the time was living in Aurora. She had to work, so I took a taxi to the state park...hung out there and rode a horse :) I love the beauty of Colorado.
We stayed a week in Estes Park last month. I am from CA and had never been to CO. So beautiful. I really recommend Rocky Mountain National Park if you haven't been, but you have lots of time in the future. I have the Ball book also, it is a good canning starting point.
I’ve followed you for years…I find the things you do fascinating
Hi Immy, watching your videos for several years, but I'm not frequently commenting - sorry. I love canning and cooking jam and I did and do so together with my mum since I was a little kid. We usually canned our own fruit from the garden (tomatosauce, vegetable stew, whole cherries, bush beans) and fruit that we got from neighbours or friends. I hope that I can keep this hobby going later as well, as it takes up quite some space to store everything and not go to the grocery store and buy when you need it. My grandma was more into homemade liquor. Never tasted it, but I still have her Coffee Liquor in mind among some other things she did. With canning you're not only canning food, you're canning memories and create memories while doing so. Especially if you have a canning "buddy" 😉😂 xoxo from Germany Stephanie
I love that you commented on the experiences you have of preserving food with your family members. Canning really does create memories, and it is so much for fun to do with other people. I loved reading your comment. Thanks for this!! Greetings to you from northern 🇨🇦. Ⓜ️ary🫙
@@marycharlebois6627 Dear Mary, thanks a lot for your kind words - really appreciate it. If you enjoy canning, you're really preserving memories - and so I do. I also love gifting homemade things to friends that I know they'll appreciate it. For them this is special as they did not grow up with that as something usual and they actually see the effort you've put into the gift. Additionally you know what's inside 😉 We are using fruit to sugar ratio 3:1 for our jam and not 1:1 or even worse as the big companies do. And we are getting creative with a splash of liquor that might fit to the fruit used. And though we use less sugar, the jam is good for years! 🤤 Maybe I can pass these experiences on to my future kids - I would love to do so. ❤️ xoxo Stephanie
Like you, we also gift a lot of our canning as gifts. It’s such an amazing feeling when folks really appreciate it. Today we blanched and froze all the broccoli from our garden. We also picked all our apples and crabapples because we live in the wilderness of northern 🇨🇦 and we have bears 🐻 who love apples. We are using our steamer-juicer to steam the apples and will be putting-up quart jars of apple juice which we will enjoy in the winter. Thanks for sharing your canning journey with me here in Immy’s comment section. Canning and preserving really are great ways to preserve healthy food, save money, and make amazing gifts and memories too. Happy canning, Ⓜary🥦🍎@@stephanieloffler8566
I am silent subscriber but I wanted to mention that I missed watching your well shot and calming videos. I am glad you are back to posting on UA-cam 💕
Would definitely be interested in hearing more about your experience living in the UK versus living in Colorado, the good the bad, all of it.
I moved from Seattle in the U.S. to the south of France and have been thinking a lot about what living in the U.S. is like compared with France, would be curious to hear your thoughts!
That blue and white floral set looks gorgeous on you
Appreciate you ❤️
That book is a classic. Even once you know what you are doing it is a great resource to look up proportions and times.
I missed you videos dearly this summer!!! I’m so happy you took some time for yourself but I’m really excited to have daily videos! 😻😻😻😻
Thank you for this video, Immy! I really appreciated what you said about motivation. Your videos are inspiring AND it’s nice to know you struggle with motivation like the rest of us (and still manage to create such beautiful things).
I loved this video!
I found your videos a few months ago and I love them so much, especially these series. They feel so relaxed, casual and calming to watch. I'm on the path of going zero waste and living more sustainably... And I find your videos and posts inspirational. Thank you for making them ❤
Excited for how the jumper is turning out!
I look forward to your videos ALWAYS! 💜
You’ve done so well with your knitting. I always run out of motivation but the time I reach the sleeves. Your videos are so relaxing. Thanks for your efforts ❤
Hello there Immy,
I wanted to respond to your remark in this video about not knowing why people like your content. I want to give you some feedback for you to reflect on!☺️
I visit your channel as a longtime subscriber because you provide me with a little pocket of calm, that is insightful, creative and humble. I also love how accessible your life tips are; I loved seeing you learn to knit and marvel at your ability to create a jumper as your second ever project!😁
I am really looking forward to the videos that you make about learning to Crochet. I’m a very many decades long knitter, but have never quite gotten how to successfully crochet any items-just doesn’t seem to stick!
I’m very much looking forward to seeing how you approach it & maybe learn something or get motivated to try again!
With thanks & gratitude,
Sharlot, (from Melbourne, Australia🇦🇺)🌻
Hey Sharlot, I really enjoyed reading your comment, it gives such a pleasurable vibe. “A little pocket of calm”… that’s a good one!! Thanks for sharing, Ⓜ️ary (from northern 🇨🇦)
Hey there Mary,
Aww, that’s very lovely of you to say; it put a smile on my face😊.
Look forward to your canning adventures. Thanks for the video.
I love watching your videos. You seem so grounded, and I'm learning so much from you, much gratitude.
Hi Immy!
Your videos have made a really big difference in how I try to think about my impact and what sort of lifestyle I want to live. Thank you for doing what you do!
At the end of August, I'm visiting family up in Denver and hopefully Ill get to check out one of the farmers markets up there. I like the city a lot, but I don't know much about agriculture outside of peaches from Colorado? So it sounds cool to see what grows there, since this is the first year ive really gotten interested in knowing about that sort of stuff
I love a random chill vlog also I made focaccia this weekend!!
I love all of your videos and sometimes watch them again at 3am to get to sleep because you have such a calming energy and a soothing voice ❤❤❤
Hey Immy, I always look forward to watching your content, especially content when you are learning new skills and endeavouring in various hobbies. You have motivated me to try learning new skills this year such as making different sourdough breads every week, reducing my food waste, cooking more from home, and starting my first-ever garden! I wanted to say thank you for sharing your life with us and allowing me to learn from your knowledge. Your energy and smile brighten my day whenever I get to watch you! :) All the best
Hello Immy! I was really looking forward to your video today, thank you for sharing it. Your sit down videos always feel so genuine, like a talk with a friend. Have a nice evening/day, see you tomorrow
hey sista i love that you are doing more vids and taking us along in you day in the us you can buy steam and electric canners if you find the stove top one a little overwhelming
! this was so so pretty
Random, but I enjoyed this video! :)
Could you make a video about your running journey and an update on marathon training?
Love your videos Immy, have followed you for a long time now! Looking forward to seeing your finished jumper.....or should we say 'sweater'? 😁
Your videos will always be needed because they are very calming and helpful and don't forget when there are a new crop of vegans as everyone around the globe are waking up to how their eating habits etc affect life for themselves and others! Keep up the great work also your style is perfect!!
just canned some home-grown tomatoes (into sauce) for the first time this week - good luck in your canning adventures! I've seen a lot of people say the quality of Ball lids have suffered since covid, though I haven't had any issues, but I also use the lid brand ForJars :D
I totally get the menstrual cycle apathy/inspiration rollercoaster... Hopefully your husband understands! Also, love to see your videos everyday, and your knitting progress: the colour combination of this jumper is *chef's kiss*
Love these videos! Would love to see a cleaning video and daily vlog
Totally relate on not wanting to pick up all the language quirks of the folks around you. 😂 I'm from the Southern US but moved up north to live with my partner. I grew up calling fizzy drinks "soda" or "coke" colloquially and I refuse to start saying "pop" like everyone I know up here.
I'm from south Louisiana, currently living in Massachusetts, and I refuse to say carriage instead of buggy when referring to a shopping cart. Someone asked me if I wanted to take their carriage the other day since they were done, and my brain could not compute what they meant 😂
When my brother-in-law (who was from Ohio where I live) moved to New Jersey and began saying "soda", I said, "David, the word is pop!" He exclaimed oh no they'll make fun of me around here if I call it that! 😉
@@sustainfem 😂 The inverse happened to my sister. She moved to NY (also from the south) a few years ago and quickly converted to calling it "pop". So now I tease her about it any time I hear her say it (with love, of course)
Can I ask where do you get the thick yarn? it looks great!
I canned some staeberry jam last year and i have still like 6 glas to finish. So no canning for me. But i was think about making my own applesauce
Jumper, Imms 😂
How are you handling bugs in your garden? (the ones that eat all the leaves and stuff). Your plants look so healthy and beautiful!
Thanks for this nice chit chat video ❤
Now I’d appreciate a UK vs US stand alone video. Just curious 🤔😂❤️
Haha I think I’m going to have to film one, I think it would be really interesting to hear everyone else’s opinions on my thoughts too lol
@@SustainablyVegan I’m from the US and several videos back (when u first moved to Colorado and remarked on how expensive food is) I commented, wondering how true that was (as in, was that the timing of inflation). Because I was going to the UK for a month and was curious. Well, that was back in May. Can now officially confirm, as an American, as a Vegan, despite inflation, the UK is MUCH cheaper. Even with currency exchange. I was shocked. Have been in Italy and Prague since and London still wins. I couldn’t believe it. So you were SOOOO right. 😂👍
where do you get the patterns
If you haven't already, you should read the book period power by Maisie Hill. I also feel that my cycle impacts my life, as you mentioned, and reading this book helped me to really understand how I can make it work for me 🌞💘
More casual vlog style videos plss
Nope, cherry creek is in Denver.
Thank you!!
Hi Immy, this is SUPER random but I noticed you use Thai coconut milk, I’m sure you are but just incase I just thought I’d mention that not all Thai coconut milks are cruelty free, some still use monkeys to pick them.. might be worth checking that the one you use is on the list of monkey free ones..
love your videos 🌱
The most important question: have you started saying "ope" when you nearly bump into someone?
You should reach out to sarahs vegan kitchen, i am sure you know her from UA-cam. She used to live in colorado as well, not sure if she does anymore.
As long as you don't start pronouncing it "errrrrbs" instead of "herbs", you're good.
You are a sweetheart, I hope I'll find a girl like you some day
so happy for your daily videos even though they're maybe not consistent, always brightens my mood!
