    I absolutely LOVED this episode...the vibe set with the natural elements and most simple but beautiful items were put together perfectly. I love how often you've inspired me on many episodes to "shop from my own home" and to see my bowls, vases and even a pretty stick that I've picked up on a nature walk differently!

    WOW, That was amazing. The cookie recipe us similar to an Italian cookie called Cocoons, I’m going to make some maybe today, I have to get someone to bring me some cornflakes and canola oil. The Italian cookies are dusted in powder sugar which I’m hoping to make this recipe in a minute. I love this video and I’m glad it popped up today. I needed some cheering up and my husband has invited a small army for dinner. Thank you for sharing. I am going to move my Rosemary outside.

    Allen your home is always so beautiful. Thank Aunt Jamie for the delicious cookie recipe and tip on packaging added ingredients in baggies.
    I also do that for breakfast muffins. Premeasure flour, salt and baking soda in one bowl. Pop on lid then sugars in another bowl. Makes for easy assembly.

    I have a huge holly tree in my back yard but it hasn’t create any berries yet. Do I need to plant another near by? We purchased the house two years ago and this tree never bloomed or had berries on and I have a few bee hives in our property so pollination wouldn’t be the problem. Any advice would be appreciated.

    How long will each of these stay alive/green without water? Like the Rosemary wreath?
    I do professional gift wrapping and Christmas decorating. I love using live rosemary, pine needles, holly, & berries, but I’m always worried about how far in advance I can wrap with those. I usually only use live pieces with my last minute customers the week of Christmas.
    Your rosemary wreath makes me wonder if I can start using it sooner and it still look and smell great Christmas Day??
