  • Hello Darlings!
    A lot of you have requested more vintage day in the life videos, so here it is!! I had a lovely vintage inspired day with James and Granny, and I really enjoyed filming the whole process. Usually, I’m not able to live like this every day because I’ll be at university or on nursing placement. So, I had a really lovely day taking my time, making wholesome meals and spending time with the chickens!
    I hope you enjoy the video and I’ll see you soon,
    Lots of love,
    Sage Xx
    Here is the Marmalade recipe:
    7 small grapefruits
    2 ½ cups sugar
    Cinnamon and allspice (or whatever spice you fancy!)
    ½ - 1 cup honey (optional - I did this because my grapefruit were VERY bitter)
    Method:
    Peel or slice off rind. Cut away white pith from grapefruit (the bitter part).
    Slice up grapefruit and rind and put in pot with sugar.
    Bring to boil then simmer for 10 minutes, stirring every so often.
    Add in honey and spices and simmer for another 10 minutes. Do the freezer test to check whether marmalade is ready. (Put a spoonful of marmalade on saucer and put in freezer for 3 mins. Draw a line with your finger or spoon through the marmalade and if it stays and doesn’t move back together then its ready!)
    Sterilize jar and then pour in your marmalade, let set overnight on bench or in fridge. (Marmalade should last for a year in fridge if in sterilized jar).
    Enjoy!! xx

      Oh yes, my grandma too. Air the house out and usually she'd make bread that would be baking by the time us kids woke up , and the coffee perking in her percolator.

      Interesting! I’m a 39 year old mama to 5 kids (whom I homeschool) and I’m always the first one up. I have always opened the windows first thing in the morning, immediately followed by making my coffee. I never thought about the impact that might have on my children. But it’s sweet for me to think that when they’re all grown and look back, they’ll say fondly, My mom used to always do that! 🥰

      My mother had her favorite recipes, which she cooked from memory. She must have gotten her recipes from the Better Homes and Gardens cookbook. I did a search for “beef stew better hones and gardens cookbook 1950’s.” The recipe I found was similar to how my mother cooked beef stew... except that my mother always coated each piece of beef in flour before browning.

    Making sweet memories with James’ grandmother! I loved when he joked about bread being too thick. I’m sure his gran remembers years where you were cutting bread super thin to make it go farther. It’s fun to see you all having winter while I’m here in the USA complaining about the heat, ha. I agree with you about tea! Always a comforting pause in the day. ❤

    I swear the way you wear vintage clothes, do your hair, cook and live makes me believe that your just an old soul re-living your old life in a new body and generation. Many people do (or not) believe in reincarnation and when those persons know more about a timeline, which they had never lived in, there’s always a possibility they lived in the other (or had their previous life cut short) before they could complete it. I thought I knew a lot about the 1920’s, 30’s, 40’s (and so forth) from my great aunt and uncle or my mother. Come to find out that I learn more everyday. I always consider your videos/vlogs the biggest treat of my older life. Until then, you, James and Granny stay warm and many blessings; it’s a bit warm in the Tampa Bay Area (Florida) today, where I live too. With a high of 91F/33C but with the heavy humidity it feels like 102F/39C., I could use a bit of that cool you have there. And I was raised here. 😮‍💨

    Dear Sage, thank you for the lovely video! Granny looks so cute! Yes, beds have to be aired, - the longer - the better. Generally speaking, if the bedroom is just for sleeping and is not in use through the day, it can be let undone in order to let it air for 5-10 hours, - it prevents the reproduction of dust mites, who prefer darkness & also moisture, trapped under the blanket. Many people cover the bed only before cleaning the bedroom, so that dust from the brush would not fly on the bedlinen.

It is hard for me to imagine what it was like back in the 40's and 50's and watching old movies isn't the best either since the video quality isn't very good. But your videos are the best since it seriously looks like you're living 70+ years ago!
