The best feeling one can have is eating the food they raise themselves and picking fruit from our own trees. That's what mother nature does at its best😘😘😘😘😘

Thankyou so much what a lovely comment. Hope you have a great week and look forward to seeing your comment next week. Hopefully we can make some good progress ☺️
Having a horse is like having A Gigantic Dog! Eats, bigger poops, drinks, gets treats, and gives you enormous joy❤❤ I was giggling when you decided the white paint didn't match Walt's coloring😂 I would be tbe same. The vanilla is such a warm inviting color. Walt farting😂😂 The countertop, sink, and splash board looks so gorgeous❤ You two certainly have been busy this week! All your plants and trees! What a great video, thank you for sharing❤❤
Thanks Michele it was a very busy one and in 40 degrees Celcius it feels like twice the work haha and yes a horse.is exactly like a big dog only this one isn't allowed.in the house hahahahah
Your plants need water. Early in the very morning or late in the evening. They are very thirsty. Their leaves became yellow, and if you don't take care of them they will die very soon.
Good job on the kitchen so far, might want to put a few coats of varnish on the counter to make it more water proof. Planting your trees in the hot weather is not the best idea so keeping up with the watering is key and adding the horse manure will help get them kicked off but I would wait about 3 weeks for the new plantings to go through transplant shock but existing ones should be fine for a little shot. Should get some water pipes run down to the trees they will need constant water. Keep up the good work and try and get some screens made for your door and windows☺☺
Yeah I think I will coat it until it seems evenly covered and a nice shade.yeah planting at this time isn't ideal but I'm making sure they are getting a good drink (usually 5 litres twice a day) yes your right when the horse manure rots a little.it will be great compost 😁😁😁
Sophia and dave ,the kitchen is going to be so cute 😊the noise in the back ground it sounds like a man drinking g a pint 😅 it was as well you were on video dave I would have blamed that noise on you you both enjoy the lovely weather😊❤😊❤
The only deficiency I can see is inconsistent watering especially when the fruit starts growing. Hope that helps. Try to make friends in your community especially from the elders, they know the climate and can be your best friends to learn the nuances of the area the best.
Yes you are right I think once I get the borehole sorted then I can try and put timers on everything so it's takes the weakest link out of the equation (me haha) thanks for the advice 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
We have already and they have told us so much about our land and area it's been so useful, it's lovely as we have a mix of cultures here, Portuguese, Dutch, french and now us 😊
Cucumbers need a lot of water 💦 yours are looking pretty dry. Loving your kitchen, try staining with a rag then you won’t get the roller marks. Loving your progress ❤😊
They eat water for fun next year I am going to try them in a more shaded spot I think. Yes I will try with a rag I think I'll get much better coverage. Thanks 👍🏻😊
Corta las ramitas del tallo de los tomates.. contra la tierra , despeja el tallo.... crecerá más fuerte y saludable la tomatera..... digo!!!!! son sugerencias no!!! consejo..... ya pasé por todo eso. años atrás.....
I love the little kitchen! You might want a sprayer at the sink. It’s really helpful. Your garden in wonderful. So happy you are successful with it.🤗🐝❤️
@@escapetothequinta Soon you’ll be cooking food you grew with your own hands and cooking it in a kitchen you built with your own hands. Good, good feeling!❤️🤗🐝
Heya you two, great going on that wall-paint, looks totally nice. `How good is that to have a little harvest already and nice to see you planted out some more trees. Not going to say anything about Sophia's finger, just hope she doesn't flip it to anyone hahahaha. Did you manage then, to fix the tire?? Have a great week you two!!! Cheers Bert 🙏🏻❤
Cheers dude I am yet.to pump it up I wanted to make sure the glue fully cured but I will be pumping it up tomorrow we got a little distracted by some stay animals ..... Stay tuned hahahah 😉
Hello! We are enjoying your channel and getting caught up. We met Dave (and Walt) a few weeks back in the parking lot at Continente and started watching! Great job so far! Glad Fly made it safely too. Question - where do you find vinegar for pickles?? ;) Looking forward to more videos and hope we run into you two in town again! We are the couple who just moved from Canada who were stoked to watch the hockey game final.
Oh hey Tamara you found the channel thanks for watching. Did your team win in the end? I think we got the vinegar from intermarshe they sell it by the litre. Hoping these pickles come out well if they work I'll send you the recipe hahah 🤗
@@escapetothequinta Ha - no, sadly, the Oilers lost in the end but they gave it a good go! Thanks for the info - we will check Intermarche - I can find cleaning vinegar but I really don't know if that is food-grade?? ha! Keep us posted on the pickles for sure - would appreciate the recipe if they work. PS we are finally caught up to date on your videos!!
HI guys! Great video! Your kitchen is getting really good! soon you'll have a place inside to wash the dishes and cook all your veggies grown in your land! Great job with the tire Dave! Hopefully you don't get to use that tire kit much!
@@escapetothequinta ahahahahah I was being sarcastic xD This hot weather is killing me! But I saw the other day a newspaper from 1934 I think (not sure about the date) that stated here in Portugal 68.2degrees on the sun and 40 something in the shade xD I don't want to see that coming for sure!
Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless you guys 🙏 you stained the wall 😙 for the rest good work 👍😁 veggies and fruits from your own garden are 10 times better than from the shop the ones from the shop are full of poison, I like to see your horse having the best life are you also driving on him, maybe you should protect your new tree's with some chicken wire around them so horse deer and rabbits and goats don't eat them, just saying 😉.
Yes you are right the stuff in the shops has been treated with 100 chemicals at least we know ours are organic. Chicken wire is a great idea I may have to try it 🤗🤗🤗

I cant believe you cut the countertop in the house! Newly painted walls 🤨 If the back of the counter top isn't against the wall, why the back splash ??? Had you left the overhang on the counter top, you could have added stools and had an eating area 😟 I love the bone shaped rug.
Hahaha it was 40 degrees outside I would have melted also no cutting tools.allowed to be used outside in this heat incase of a fire.......so we had a lot of dust to sweep up haha. We are going to to run a splash back across the wall to so it all matches but the reason on this section was as a bit of a divide between the other half of the room. I do love your idea about the breakfast bar we definitely want to try something like that in the main house 🏠
It's very hot in Portugal so working hard is dangerous and you have to drink a lot of water and more salt in the food That's way there is siesta sleeping in the hottest part of the day and were a stro head
It does indeed, very hot and also we have other jobs too so we try to fit in what we can on our lunch breaks and evenings. Would be nice to click my fingers and it's actually done though haha. Have a good week and thanks for watching 😊😊😊
Yes sometimes it's been hitting 42 at about 2pm so you just can't work in that. Every part of you sweats if you try too hard in these temperatures haha 🤣
The best feeling one can have is eating the food they raise themselves and picking fruit from our own trees. That's what mother nature does at its best😘😘😘😘😘
Indeed it is she provides everything we need ☺️
I always think the sink cut out makes a good chopping board and it matches the kitchen surface .
Great idea!
Yes that's the plan ......saves buying one and means zero waste hahaha thankyou 🙏🙏🏻🙏
Love the new bench top.. Clever bunnies💕
Nothing tastes quite as good as your own produce.. To start with, it the freshest..
Secondly , it clean..
Third.. it’s easy to gather..
Sending love💕💕
Thanks so much it was super scary cutting it as we only had one chance haha yes you can't beat home grown 😁😉😁
must be a lot of work the past week, but look how far you are, that work top looks so amazing. and also a lot of trees in the garden, good job. love your sweet doggy, he looks so happy. love you guys
Thankyou Walt is living his best life bless him haha 😆
Bet those tomatoes tasted amazing...just cut up with a little salt really good olive oil.pepper and basil....a Mediterranean dream... idyllic

Yes the cucumber absolutely drinks water I think next season they will be put somewhere a bit more in the shade 😜
Goodness Walt drinks alot of water 😅 x
He almost doesn't drink for ages and then drinks a litre or 2 silly pup hahah
@escapetothequinta my two are the same lol 😆
And it goes everywhere hahah
Lovely progress this week guys.
Keep being you, it's what we all love ❤❤
Awww thankyou so much. Your going to love this week's video ...... Let's just say we have some very unexpected new additions 🤐😬🍼
By the time you start working on your main house,you will be masters of the tools, plumbing and painting.
Haha we hope so it's a great place to learn and make mistakes hahahah 😄

Don't forget a little bit of sugar, just to take the extra sour of the vinger away.
Ahh is that the secret thankyou ☺️☺️☺️☺️

Hoping to never have to use it again hahaha. Yes it will be lovely not to have to wash a cup outside in 40 degrees haha

How do you stop the horse from eating the newly planted fruit leaves 🍃 does it even eat them 🤔
She's really good she doesn't go near them thank god I would be devastated haha
Some real portugese tiles between thee end of kitchen top and wall may look nice. Or is that too twee
I was thinking this.behind the oven some nice azulejo type tiles could work lovely 😻
Porque escolheram ficar com a cozinha de costas para a entrada e luz natural??
You will see when it's all done but the main reason it that the window height is lower then the kitchen. Have a lovely week

You have to speed up your work.what idd you do in 1 week?? You will be finished at the age of 65.
