Those raspberries are the size of my THUMB! Sergei is a keeper - but you know that. Your garden ❣ I remember when you moved into an overgrown mudslide with little to save. Now, it's a treasure. And I always admire you, Alla, when you work. You have such skill, talent, and imagination. And you do it always looking lovely! If I even wash a paintbrush I look like I've been digging ditches in the rain. Respect to you, Lady!😘

Sergi is such a great cook. The floor is looking amazing.

Sergie is such a great husband ,his cooking looks amazing,gee 15 chillies I can't eat one, alla I love that cherrie just patiently waits for her cuddles,

I look forward to your video's every day. Thank you

the flagstone looks so perfect in your outdoor kitchen!

Bricks, ceramic tiles, stone pavers - Wow! Alla, you've become a floor master! 🤩

Алла! По совету соседки, я рядом с грядкой вкопала 1,5 л пластиковую бутылку ( по плечики) , налила самое дешевое пиво( закрыв донышко). Утром достала полбутылки слизняков. Они в нее залезают, напиваются, а вылезти не могут, а пиво привлекает их своим запахом. А, когда идет сильный дождь, просто закручиваю пиво крышкой, а на ночь открываю…… попробуйте! У нас в Подмосковье, вот лет 5 как появились огромные черные слизни, сжирают все!

Yummy Rasberries & Strawberries ❤❤❤

You could make a bench or seating area around to cover the drainage area. It would still allow it to breathe and drain.

floor is awesome alla. u and sergei are amazing!

Get rid of the Slugs with beer bait... burry a shallow tin (tuna tin) in the ground at ground level the Slugs love the beer, they get Drunk and then drown it. Works like a party

Great progress Alla, the floor is looking great. Just think of how many rooms you and Sergei have renovated, it is amazing.

Toads and frogs are great climbers, he could've come up that wall easily!❤

A scrub brush on a pole would be so helpful to get the stones clean and not so back breaking!! Love Sergi’s cooking skills! OMG! So much joy to see a 🐸 toad! I think he will stay there forever!

Your video made me laugh out loud especially at the end when you showed Cherie, I swear she had Sergis mannerisms. 😂 beautiful lunch and your doing a great job with the outdoor kitchens new flooring, take care 😘

Sergi, what a man, I've been married 54 years and my husband never cooks, he might fix a sandwich for himself or scrabbled eggs if he is desperate. I don't cook breakfast or lunch, only dinner unless we eat out. The stone floor is turning out great, can't wait to see it finished. Kathy USA 🇺🇸

I love chilis, but they don't love me. Not spicy would suit me best. You lunch looked delicious. You have a very nice husband! The kitchen floor is coming along. You've done very well, so far. I imagine with the high humidity it takes the glue longer to dry.

Froggy heard you were hiring a slug control, and he will do it for free lol

The floor in the summer kitchen looks great, it’s nice that you take breaks and sit in your garden , remember what the garden use to look like ? And now with the hard work you and Sergi have done how beautiful it is ! It’s a whole world filled with beautiful flowers, fruit, vegetables,birds and now one fat little frog! Good job Sergi on making lunch it looked delicious! I love the last shot of supervisor Cheri at the end of your video ,her eyes have so much expression. Adorable. Am I spelling her name correctly? We have a neighbor who has a King Charles Cavalier and when ever I see them walking I think oh there’s Cheri 🐶

If I did a mosaic floor, I'd be tempted to paint it. Lots of colors or a design. Yours will probably be striking no matter what you decide.

I love your garden!!

Alla, the summer kitchen floor is coming along beautifully! The garden is so lovely and inviting. ❤

I use an old broom brush to clean the stone then soak up the water with a sponge.

I love your beautiful pup, Cheri!

If you want to get rid of slugs naturally use the ashes from your fireplace. Sprinkle on the soil around the plants. It works!

Hola amigos, para las hormigas yo espolvoreo tierra de diatomeas entre las plantas, cuando pasan por encima se les queda pegada y se deshidratan, es un buen abono para las plantas y las hormigas desaparecen. Un abrazo ❤❤❤

I love ❤️ the picture of the ripe raspberries and strawberries 🍓. Life ripening and thriving!

Floor looking great! I love that you tackle anything without fear of failure, such a great life lesson...toads are not my favourite! Traumatised😅as a child we woke up to a giant one inside our tent whilst camping!😱🐸

Hi Joanne. What an awful experience. Toads are not exactly snuggly cute pets!

Dear Alla the floor looks fantastic! Well done! And Sergei the pasta looks delicious!! I'll have to wait to see your floor done. I'll be in Italy ( no where near you ☹) but I so look forward to every video!! Thank you!!❣❣

The flooring is coming along nicely.

What colors of fabric are you planning to use for the last room you worked on? The mural you painted is so very pretty. Please tell Sergio he did a wonderful job on the floor.

Ants Do Not Like used COFFEE Grounds they Run from it! I circle my home with the coffee grounds.

Raspberries look delicious!

My garden is chemical free…except when snails and sludges eat all my veggie and flowers. All my hard work and my families need for food means I use snail bait and the beer method. It’s them or us Alla.

Salt kiil slugs and snails pit it around the edge of your garden when they crawl through the salt it desolves them. I used it when I lived in California usa..it works, but you do have to reapply after rains..

Yummy raspberries yay! 🙌 The Summer Kitchen floor is coming together nicely. Love it. The potted agapanthus look amazing. The slugs are having such a great meal naughty things. I have them in my garden too along with snails. They drive me mad. 😱

Love from Canada ❤❤❤

If you crush eggshells and through it around your plants or as a border around your beds, slugs will not get to your plants.

Hi Alla, frogs can't eat slug, they would choke on the sticky slime! Beer works great!

🐸 👍😊

just pour salt on the slugs ❤ epsom salts in the soil is a good deterrent and won’t hurt the plants coffee grounds egg shells also work lavender deters them also

I belive the glue is supposed to dry before you grout between the stones

We haven't noticed any difference yet. This tile glue has excellent properties-it forms a strong bond with various surfaces and is very durable once dry.

Alla, I have a suggestion for the back edge of your new floor. Have you considered the concrete blocks that are half size? If you created a short wall 4feet high, you could put flat rocks on top like a ledge. That way you could hide the wet walls and still be able to get between it and the wet wall to clean the trench out. The blocks would only take up 4 inches of your floor space.

You'll find placing the cookeragainst the wall enabling you more central room?

Exciting ❤😊

the stone floor is amazing alla. wow. your tallents are amazing.

👋👍❤️

A cup with beer in it will draw the slugs to it and they'll drown.

BAIT, BAIT, BAIT!!! You need to buy some, organize a schedule, REPEAT! Otherwise, critters will devour the garden. Start with the metal fence near the stream. Use ropes to keep the doggy out. If need be, partition it off, do sections at a time. This is the only way to start elimination. Berries, plant in containers, and close to the door, at table height, versus either garden to keep fruit off the ground. This will make them more edible for you first. :)

Looks like paradise❣️🩷👏🏻👏🏻

If I was Teddy well I definitely would stay you wouldn’t be able to get rid of me!! 💯 ❤️

Yes, the accommodations and view here are perfect for Teddy the Toad. Even more perfect for humans.

could the large grasshopper thingey be a locust? does someone know what it was? thx

Alla, could the toad be from one of the tadpoles you let loose in your little bucket pond a long time ago?

the slugs are a real pest, there are just sooo many this year because of all the rain.

I was just reading that ducks love eating slugs. Maybe you need a pet duck!

Here in Texas those ants would sting the heck out of your hands. As soon as they touch your skin the bite and the bites swell up for weeks. 4 bites on my finger even though I know not to touch them. I pulled a weed and was attacked. 😢😢😢

Why allow slugs to eat your hard work.

Unfortunately the toads can’t eat those massive Spanish slugs, pick them up and take them somewhere else is the only way !

I'm sorry, but cutting the slugs with shears is a step too far. I can't get the image out of my head. In these times, filled with more horror than I can bear, I expected you to be delicate and sensitive. I was wrong.
