Your video is my form of escaping my mind right now. I feel so overwhelmed but totally motivated to make the world better.
This warms my heart 🤍
Totally get you. I feel exactly the same. Lydia vids always makes me so HaPpY ❤️
Hi Lydia! Lovely vlog 🌸 As a fellow sproutling mother, a loving tip: those pots are a tad bit too big for them.. As the water sinks to the bottom, their roots aren’t long enough to reach the moist yet. Rule of thumb is that the new pot should be about 20% bigger in width and height than the previous one ♥️
Keep your bananas separate from other fruit because they cause everything else to ripen faster and go off faster!
:)
Oh, I didn’t know! Thank you for saving my fruit😄
You need a banana tree stand
same for apples :)
They’re great for ripening avocados - put together in a paper bag and check regularly
@@fifiserafino1 Really? That's great, thank you for this tip! :)
I love you to Lydia, been watching for years and can’t get enough of your contents.
I can’t believe I actually enjoy watching you do your home chores
You seem so chilled and relaxed since lockdown, and your great sense of humour shines through, which we didn’t get to see much of before, you have made laugh so much😂 It’s also lovely seeing more of you with Ali, what a lovely guy and such a sweet couple.
Just a friendly comment - when I grew my mint for the first time last year it grew very stringy. So this year I researched you need to keep pruning them to keep them more bush like and it worked. Best wishes from Kansas City
If you put some pebbles in the bottom of the plant pots when re potting , it helps the drainage when watering xx
your eyebrows are out of this world! you look even more beautiful when they are not styled
You are a beautiful soul. I’ve been following you since 2016 and i want to say that i really enjoyed your content and you’re always a positive ,gentle and a kind human. Thank you for sharing a positive perception on this whole situation and I love the fact that you seeking knowledge about it.
Lydia, my husband just made our own bed with our own design! All reclaimed wood and specific measurements to fit us and our space. Hidden shelves and cat bed underneath!!! Looks gorgeous with my linen bedding.
Thought you may like this .... The Red Robin celebrates spring with mellow song and symbolizes renewal, fresh beginnings, and hope. The Red Robin bird is also a symbol of pleasure, joy, contentment, satisfaction, clarity, rejuvenation, bright future and happiness.

I love robins
I honestly feel like i am just chatting to a mate whenever i watch your vlogs! I love it x
You should plant some rosemary,it’s lovely to look at,bright green and healthy and lovely in a lot of recipes!
Oh yes! Seasoned on roasted veggies 😍
You just repeated what I read today in the book RULES OF LIFE " you feel guilty because you are a good person" and it is so true. Amazing!
I love terra cotta pots. I always get the saucer to go with it. Size wise. In this way you don't need your kitchen plates to catch the water. Do your replanting on the grass, no cleanup that way.
They arrived today hehe 🙊
@@lydiamillen - looks like you've got company on that dressing room of yours. Josie from fashion mumblr will have her dressing room under the eves as well. It's an interesting space and I love what you did with yours. It will be interesting to see what she does with hers.
Good about the saucers. Don't be afraid to get bigger pots. Once those herb get rooted they will need bigger pots. Some are perennials so, so they can winter outside, and enjoy them for years to come. Just not the Basil. that's considered tender. I'm enjoying watching you and Ali get into gardening. It's a lifetime learning curve. Don't forget to plant some catnip for Lumi.
Try some fish fertilizer for your roses, they love it.
This has been an energy sapping week with what is happening in the World, but you in your garden with the light behind you after gardening..is the balm and calm after a storm, I feel as if you are the daughter I've not had and it makes me happy to see your World and your commitment mentally to all that is mindful in response to the cataclysmic changes.Thank you for all you have said here!
Well done, well said Lydia. I dont know one soul that has not been touched by this reality. I thought I was awake regarding race issues in America, being a minority I prided myself in my awareness. Unfortunately, I was only sleepwalking. I have pledged to be the change. Great video!
I don’t understand. I’ve always been aware and have stood up many times against racism when I see it happen. Especially in my family where I have many different races within. In what way were you “sleepwalking”? And what changes will you literally make? Genuinely curious.
This might be quite odd but sometimes I get teary eyed after watching Lydia’s vlogs. It’s just so uplifting to watch someone who is so positive and has such a great heart! Thank you for bringing joy to my days! 💕
I love your thick eyebrows! Makes your eyes so much more beautiful 💗 let’s make all woman proud of our thick eyebrows
Thank you lovely x
I wish my eyebrows were as thick and luscious as LEMs.
We should embrace our own beauty. 💗
Thin eyebrows-beautiful
Thick eyebrows-beautiful
@@lydiamillen complete agree. Your eyes are more alluring. Make sure you keep them like this. 😍
I wish I had thicker eyebrows!😬
Lydia, the thunder sounds were amazing in this video! I love it when UA-camr's film storms, it's so relaxing :)
Lydia’s the only person who came out of lockdown with BETTER eyebrows wtf 😂😍
love this positive energy from you, much much needed in our world right now ❤️
Does anyone else notice when she talks to her husband she changes her voice
Haha do I? I honestly have no idea 🙈
I think she just changes her voice throughout the vlog not just to talk to her husband.. ☺️👍🏻💕
Some people are like that, I change the way I talk based on whom I am talking
Cute
Lydia thank you so much! Because of you always gardening and planting herbs and flowers, you have inspired to me to create a mini garden in my yard! Thanks so much! Love you Lydia, xxx!
It will be nice to see you use your platform to showcase fashion, skincare and home goods by Black creators!
I think it’s so important to dress for your own joy. Whether that’s in a beautiful, floral maxi dress, snuggly cashmere joggers, or your favorite Christmas pjs in June. Whatever makes you feel special and wonderful! Whatever it takes to feel a bit more empowered or calm and comfortable or whatever feeling you need to feel better! Congratulations on your gardening and success with your sproutlings! What a treat to see Ali playing in the rain! I used to love that as a child! He may have inspired me to do it sometime soon! Enjoyed the long vlog!
Watching this was like a big warm cuddle that my soul needed right now. Thankful 🥰
Love that you dress up at home to make yourself feel good and ready. So important! And more importantly I personally LOVE your grown out brows, so natural with sleek makeup and hair is just 👌🏽👌🏽😍
I've been binge watching your channel and you are definately more relaxed. Love all the home content.
I always feel like we are the same place at the same time! I watch your videos and you lift me in times of need. Keeping doing what you do, you spread so much sparkle and it’s nice to feel the love ❤️
I love how much Ali loves that cat.
So glad this vlog is an hour! This is a welcomed distraction! I would like to start running again. It’s so ridiculously hot in the morning and evening. I probably have to run at 5am. We’re experiencing a heat wave this week 😢. Thank you for this vlog Lydia!
Lucky you! Weather in Uk Is so up & down. Consistent is what we want but don’t get. Unfortunately
Get
Glenda 🌹🌹
sharon walker I hope you get some lovely weather soon !
Lydia, buy some rose fertilizer from the garden center and apply it every two weeks, it will help your roses bloom more.
Lydia, what a wonderful video. Thank you for speaking out. I’ve been loving your content lately. I’ve been a follower for many years and think what you’ve been doing lately have been some of my favorite videos! 💚💜
Have you fertilized your roses? Plants need more than water & soil. Regular feeding will give your roses a boost. Thank you for your eloquent comments re: the social upheaval.
SHES STUNNING I GET MESMERIZED EVERY TIME
Really? But she looks so masculine! And her nose is gigantic.
Gaia You’ve posted negative comments on her last several videos. Why are you still watching? It just makes you seem like you’re lacking any self awareness.
K K i think shes obsessed LMFAO
Lydia is truly inspiring, beautiful and honest in all her videos. ❤️
Gaia There’s no need to comment negatively on a positive comment. Let people enjoy the video and you can click off whenever you like. 😌
I think you are an amazing woman. Thank you for speaking out & standing up for racial injustice
Your positivty brings joy to my very stressful life so thank you
Take care using bare hands on compost, make sure you wash them well after xo Also! Try using potting mix soil rather than compost. It will be better draining and compost is more of a fertiliser to boost vege/flower gardens. Might be a bit rich for little sproutlings!!
Lydia, I love it when you spend time in your backyard, it's so tranquil and peaceful :)
I live in Canada 🇨🇦 so I was so thrilled to come home from a crazy stressful work day to finally see a new video. You have made me a very happy girl. And seeing you in that most incredible beautiful blue dress makes me smile too....thanks Lydia...keep doing YOU! ❤
I missed your videos so much 😭😭😭 I need you in my life. You inspire me like no one else.
Whoever is reading❤
Have a great time ahead😊, stay safe❤, stay blessed❤
sending loads of❤❤❤❤
No matter what’s going on, your vlogs always make me feel better. Thank you for good content. 💕
I am sitting with the biggest smile on my face watching your plants sprout up. Sharing the joy!
I genuinely love it when you include Ali in your vlogs because he’s honestly such a sweet person to watch. Like genuinely seems like such a nice and simple guy- I love the two of you together! Thank you Lydia for creating content that just shuts out the problems and let’s me relax :)
Good on you for working through the anxiousness. I’m sure you’ll do so carefully, and please take care of yourself. But learning to cope and deal with your anxiety will help you a lot
FYI your cress is cress not watercress. It would have much bigger round leaves and grows in water. Both delicious though.
The lavender that you've just planted looks like the lavender we have here in Spain, I can tell by the leaves. And the leaves are fragrant too. So it's definitely lavender but not sure which type. Smells beautiful though! x 😊
So excited to watch!!! Been waiting all day for this💕x
You know what. I really like your brows. They’re filling out now and looking more even. Very supermodel 😍
Your energy is what lifts me up and makes me happy during this lockdown period 😭💜
When God opens the heavens it’s my favorite time!
Love you sweetie, thank you for sharing your feelings . The sincerity in which you spread joy is so loving. Just know that here across the ocean, in bed with my chi & my spotted kitty, we watch curled up, seeing you and Ali as part of our bigger family. 💕
I just planted 5 lavender plants in my yard they are so pretty when they start to bloom. Very pretty lavender color
Your vlogs are such an escape, really helps me through anxious times so thankyou ❤️❤️❤️
I have been waiting for your video for so long. Seeing that it’s one hour long makes it worth the wait. Love you 😘
Thank you so much for this long vlog. My life is not good at the moment and Lydia your vlogs allow me to escape my reality which is rubbish. I love all your content. You are true inspiration 🥰
You literally uplift my mood in another type of way and I love it!!! Thank you ♥️
Love the hour vlogs while recovering from being sick ❤
I needed this video. 💅🏾 time to decompress!
Your new lavender plants are definitely English Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia
), it looks like they are just a different variety 'Platinum Blonde' to the established plant you already have. Without the established plant having flowered it's hard to tell which variety it is. When it has flowered try the RHS or Crocus to identify it.
I start my day with your video’s Lydia. I just enjoy your energy & smartness, running updates (I love running), Ali’s kindness, above all I adore Lumi having her say in daily vlogs, bless her:). Keep on going, wishing you all the blessings!!
That was a lovely hour spent.
Thank you Lydia. 2020 has definitely been a year of awakening. I'm hope moving forward we conquer it all with positive vibes and love.
I am LOVING these hour long videos!!
Lydia, thank you for taking the time to acknowledge the changes that need to take place in the world.
Enjoyed your video... as always.
p.s. the dress is beautiful. Good for you for wearing it! 👗
God Bless you Lydia and Ali, I have been following you moreso on Instagram recently , finally caught up with your vlogs on here ❤️ and you have been creating so much awareness on whats been going on, and replying to curious viewers too as to why you’re supporting each cause and feel so strongly I never expected , God bless you for using your social platform and doing good because I believe you are good ❤️xx
I have enjoyed not shopping for ‘ things’ material things don’t matter. Time for big changes.
Ah that sounds lovely Kath, enjoy x
Well that's not the consumerism spirit! Go out there and shop!
Gia Howard 😆
When you're anxious don't run, relax. Either indulge in some holistic approach or pamper yourself with peaceful reflexology ( I knw it's not possible yet) , stay away from mobile and any devices for sometime. Yoga instead of running... love you sweetheart
I love that you're feeling the joys of running. When quarantine is over look into running groups! Always full of good people and a nice way to make new friends :)
I'm so happy you're back Lydia!💖 I feel like we're all feeling overwhelmed and anxious right now, your and Ali's content always brightens up my day and makes me feel inspired, thank you for that 😊💕
Lydia thank you so much for addressing this it really gives me a chance to see you. I've always loved your channel however sometimes i felt you only cared about material things now i know better your an amazing young lady so is your wonderful husband thank you for this you rock.💜
wow such large plastic containers for such small amounts of food
Very sad, but eye opening week worldwide.😔. Thanks for sending out positive vibes. I really needed this💕. Stay sweet ❤️.
Also get an antique brass wood box - the basket 🧺 is incongruous with the room style - too boho. I think they are sometimes called kindling boxes.
You’re so wholesome, watching your videos makes my
day so much better 🥺💛
Your plants are sweet. Try putting the pot in a bowl of water. The plants soak the water from the bottom up. Also, make sure they have holes in the bottom of your pot. Needs to drain. Always love your videos.
Omg thank you for finding an app for plants and shrubs!! I have a mature garden. We bought this house in Sept 2019 and whilst I can identify the apple trees and the pair tree, there are lots of other beauties that I have no idea about. I’m going to get the app! Thank you!
Thank you Lydia for talking about what's been going on👍 some people pretend nothing is happening or sweep it under the carpet because it's not important to them. You have a good heart and that's why I love to watch your videos💓
The common name for Lavandula Augustifolia is English Lavender, so unfortunately the app is not really giving the plant its specific name. I am going to give the app a go on the free trial though and use it to identify some of my plants in my garden, see what it comes back with 👍
Thanks so much for this long video Really needed this today .
When things happened in the past , important things my Nan would say a change is coming, It feels like that now, letting people speak , be heard and things must change . I said many times how I get so anxious.. I don't go out because of it BUT I have never been scared to go out because of the colour of my skin!!! . In the past I have spoken out in defence of a wrong doing and sometimes it's not turned out well as my friends can tell you, but going forward every time we witness a wrong doing of any kind we must stand up for each other every time until we all understand.....
Every single life has the same value.
Stay safe stay well xxx love you Lumi x
Take care everyone 😉
so relaxing as always lydia, loved it! that meal looked delicious i could almost taste it through the screen haha! xo
You look beautiful, as always! I loveee your dress!!! 💕💕💕
Gardening with Lydia! Absolute best. “Sproutlings” love it
I do love what you’ve done with the living room Lydia it’s gorgeous but I do prefer the look of your other sofas but it’s all about your comfort and practicality at the end of the day 🥰💗
You should NEVER EVER, EVER Feel guilty for other peoples actions !!!
Thank you. Finally. And the "amount" of comments that people are making about this issue clearly summons up how pointless Lydia's request was. "What we're doing to make things better?". Really? Here's a clue: stop pointing out people's appearence all the time!
Hi Lydia, firstly, I loved this video and secondly, thanks again for using your platform to help to make a difference. Listening to your message made me feel so supported and understood. I am completely overwhelmed right now, so, God Bless you Lydia. Massive hugs and kisses. 🙏🏽❤
Fabric conditioner actually damages materials - look it up. Steaming curtains and cushions would be better, this would clean your fabrics and rid dust mites too.
Really enjoyed this vlog being so recent! Such an uplifting hour! Lots of love xxx
Lydia, your "potties" analogy for your plants is something I'm going to steal during the Spring when I start a lot of my planting indoors ;D
Also, with the Picture This app, it is never 100% reliable. If you have seedlings or starter plants like your lavender (which it is English lavender because mine look exactly the same) it has a higher chance of getting it wrong without the flowers. At least that has been my experience after using it for 2 years.
Eyebrows are looking beautiful Lydia ❤💚
Lydia, you are one of my favorite people to watch. I put you right up there with Grey's Anatomy and Law&Order SVU. I know those are TV shows, but I enjoy them so much- just like you! Whenever you post, I dress in something comfy and get my food and drink to settle down for a nice watch. Keep the long videos coming, I love it. Thank you!
Really enjoyed watching this video! You are so positive and uplifting! Thanks Lydia xx
Your kitchen is gorgeous! Are they chair covers on your dining chairs? If so where did you find them....I’ve looked everywhere for some nice ones. X
This video was so uplifting. Much needed 💕
I really missed your vlogs!! And the vibe you have in this video is so nice and comforting and natural. It’s like we are drinking a coffee together and just chatting like girlfriends do 🥰
Sending lots of hugs 🤗 🤗🥰
Great self pep talk at the beginning. Stay happy! 😊
Thanks love xx
You can’t over water mint Lydia they love drinking xxx👍🏻like you on a Friday with the wine 🙌🏻💕💕💕😍😍
Yes also keep bananas a lil apart from each other so they don’t turn brown fast
🤭🤭🤭🤭❤
