I have been finding a lot of comfort in reading and walking lately. Here in New York we already have some beautiful snowdrops blossoms. The book I have been reading for the past couple of days is "Dog Stories" by James Herriot. Such a treat and comfort!

    My dear Mother was a huge Anglophile (ditto for me)...She collected just about everything of JAMES HERRIOT. He had such a way of combining sentiment, nostalgia and tenderness and then seeped it in between the letters on the page. He wrote with so much affection about the animals of Yorkshire and the muddling humans who did or didn't deserve to have such incredible creatures under their care. I luv animals so I am a big fan, also. I still have all her JH 📚.

    Such an enjoyable video, Miranda! I think you made a great choice for your Spring handbag, gorgeous colour. I love Emma Bridgewater mugs, too, and not much space left for any more but I have my eye on the Spring Chicken mug. Your recent haul of books is fantastic. I've just read Rosemary Sutcliffe's memoir and loved it, especially after recently reading The Armourer's House, great to see the connections with her own childhood. I just found a copy of Caravan Creek by Gladys Mitchell, which looks fun, 1950s adventures on the Norfolk coast. Sadly missing its dustjacket but only a £1 from Oxfam. Have a great week!

And my heart skipped many beats seeing the vintage copy of 'The Feast' - what a great find. I found a vintage hardback copy of Miss Read's 'Farther Afield' which has been comforting to read in these times. Anyway, I loved the video catch-up! All the best, Jason

    This was such a treat, I really enjoyed the variety within this video, and your new bag is beautiful. Looks perfect with your pink beret. I agree the current Emma Bridgewater collection is particularly beautiful! When you read the preface to the Puffin children's book the vocabulary and tone really struck me; it was eloquent and quite advanced. I think children's books now can be (not always) less challenging in some ways. I remember as a child the feeling of chasing knowledge and vocabulary when reading (I was a dedicated bookworm). I did not understand every word I read, but I got the sense of unfamiliar words because of the context in which they were written, and then if I spotted the same word in another book, my understanding grew. I ended up with a very extensive vocabulary! X

    Oh yes, Weleda products are great and I'm a big fan of SkinFood. Love the mini book haul, it's always good to find an old Puffin. I bought my first Chalet School book this week for only 50c (about 25p!) from a secondhand shop. Haven't read any of those books before but your channel has inspired me to give them a go 😊

    I already have my mother’s day gift wrapped up, but I love the blue tit and daffodils tin and think it would make a good tin for me to keep my birthday, anniversary etc cards in for me. I have a box already for my ladies church group, but could do with one for me too and buy all my cards in over a few months for the whole year that way I save on time. I’ll probably get extra stamps to keep in them too. Actually that also sounds like a fab gift idea for anyone who lives in their own homes etc or who is in charge of buying and sending cards xx

All your book suggestions are exactly the kind of books I would chose, so thank you.

    Thank you for this lovely video, Miranda! I’m currently reading The Armourer’s House (much needed solace after the sad ending of The Mill on the Floss!). It’s a great little book which brings London before the Great Fire to life, as Shakespeare and Ben Jonson must have known it (Lammy was bought at the Bartholomew Fair🐑😊). I’ve just got to the point when the ride past the Tabard Inn and take the Canterbury Road. It’s December, so no time of the year to start a pilgrimage, but Chaucer’s London is there as well, of course. It’s such a nice book to follow the changing of seasons in town and country. I’m still looking forward to the blossoming of the tulip bulb🌷😊

    I’m rather late watching this but wanted to say how much I enjoyed it. Your new bag is gorgeous and looked lovely with your blue dress and pink coat and beret, beautiful colours for spring! I am also a big fan of Emma Bridgewater and agree she’s really outdone herself with this spring’s collection! I have lots of her mugs (always so hard to resist!) and love to use the ones that suit the season. I’m interested to try Weleda cream, it sounds like it would suit my dry skin. I love Lumene cream too, that’s what I use daily. I’d love to hear if you have any recommendations for hair care as well as skin care, your hair always looks lovely! (I have wavy/curlyish hair which never seems to look the way I’d like it to!).
