This episode of The English Homemaker is about joy! How we can cultivate it, build it, nurture it, experience it. All the different ways we are doing that in our family at the moment. This episode could be a whole book in itself, so excuse the short episode, but I hope it helps in some way on these dark winter days.
From seashells to sunsets, from hygge lights to belly laughs, from long pushchair walks to the postbox to weekends away in the countryside, we talk about so many things...
"The most wasted of all days is one without laughter." E.E.Cummings
