  • Something that stands out to me while watching the two of you together- you’re so gentle with how you communicate, and you’re considerate to not talk over each other...it inspires me to be more careful when talking with my own husband. Thank you for another wonderful, happy, relaxing, and enjoyable video!

  • What a charming kitchen! I love how the hob is positioned at a slanted wall, and the little patio outside is divine. The trend here in the US is for kitchens of high design but they are also so cookie-cutter: cream-color cabinets, granite or quartz countertops, etc. I much prefer a unique kitchen like yours.

    • So glad you like it, thanks so much! Yes, the same in Germany. People tend to get white (very modern and cool) looking kitchens that almost look dead. We simply can't do it. We always prefer a traditional (timeless style) and some colour. And we always wanted an English country kitchen :)

The park was breathtaking, the theatre magical. I didn't want to come home and shed lots of tears. One of the most memorable times in my early career years. I'm so pleased to discover and watch your channel. Thank you for your Christmas wrapping ideas. I'd like the experience of walking into Fortnum and Mason!

The musical paper chain was so charming plus the Santa card and lighting, exceptional. The gifts were perfect, especially the steamer. And thank you, Joerg, for the Mulled wine recipe. I fell in love with Gluhwein in Zurich and then again in Basil, so much so that bought a bottle here in the U.S. and it wasn't very good. Now I'll make your version for the cooler nights in Phoenix this holiday season.

  • Those are great gift ideas. Your kitchen is beautiful! I absolutely LOVE the colors. It looks so cozy. Here in Chicago, we have the Christkindlemarket that just started on Friday. It's set up to look like a little village in Germany and there is always a huge line for mulled wine. They have the most beautiful things for sale from vendors that come all the way from Germany, Austria and the Ukraine every year. I buy gorgeous hand blown glass ornaments there.

First you & Joerg are a wonderful couple. I so appreciate your videos & what you share from places, decor and your own journey. I love your style from your hair to your voice as you carefully share your favorites. Your dress & eyewear is lovely. The kitchen cupboard's color and decor just warms the space. The pantry is a nice surprise. I do like your eating & work nook especially as it opens up to the outdoors. Your tree is lovely and I especially like the tea kettle. Mulled wine sounds so nice on a cold, wet evening as we're having tonight. I just really want to enjoy the scents. Thank you for sharing. 💕

  • Dear dear Kirsten thank you. You have bought such joy into my You Tube viewing . I settle down to watch you and your husband with a cuppa and a sneaky biscuit. What a refreshing change you have bought to You Tube. I too subscribe to Lydia Elise Millen but I have to say a Kirsten offering is viewed with much greater pleasure.Now I want to say a huge thank you for introducing “Slightly Foxed” I never would have discovered the podcast without your suggestion. What a gem it is . I now look to my budget to see if I can purchase the magazine....perhaps I could sacrifice the “sneaky” biscuit . I think all your subscribers can fully appreciate the huge amount of work you and Jurg put into producing a video but rest assured you do not toil in vain. You are much loved and valued.

That cottage was in the first video I watched of yours and I was hooked. It must have made her happy to do it. Your kettle is precious and the kitchen is coming along so delightfully. Tried the wine recipe, YUMMY! The gift ideas were lovely. Thanks for taking so much time to make videos to look forward to each week. Take care!

Your kitchen has a warm feeling too, everything is beautifully decorated, I love the pale green furniture, especially the corner furniture which is so unusual. The mulled wine recipe looks so easy, we must give it a try this year. It’s so lovely of the 2 of you to share these special moments with us. 💕

  • Dear Kirsten and Joerg, thank you both so much for showing us your kitchen. It is lovely ! I particularly like the floor- tiles and the cupboards, I bought a 1930s wall- clock and an art deco kettle in that shade of green for my new kitchen because I love that colour. I love your vintage chairs, and I love the shape of your kitchen, the dining and working area is very cosy. I will have to use Joerg's recipe for mulled wine. Best Wishes.

    • Kirsten I ended up decorating very country, I have a big sleigh 🛷 coffee table, an old 1920’s freezer box where they used to put big cubes of ice in the top, an old 1920’s dental cabinet where they used to put all the teeth lol! Anything old that has a story! My friend was throwing out an old 1880 oak table that seats 12 because of that we turned two little bedrooms into the dining room & our house is very tiny so I made it into a cozy pub. Also have a houser baking station with the old tin drawers for flour it’s just so cool! That’s why I love your KZhead so much! It makes me feel calm & warm! Thank you both very much for this!

  • Love your new kitchen! Thank you for your gift suggestions. You always make such thoughtful choices. I agree about keeping gifts to a “minimum”. I much prefer one gift chosen especially with me in mind to a number of more generic presents. It’s the thought that goes into picking that special item that makes it so dear to me. My favorite part of Christmas shopping is looking for unusual stocking stuffers that are uniquely suited to each member of my family. Best wishes from the USA.
