Joerg is really loosening up, talking more, laughing and smiling. I really like his contribution to the channel.

The cutest couple ever and cake 🍰

Loved the wedding stories. My husband and I moved a lot over the years due to job demands. At each new house, I tried to make it as cozy and restful as quickly as possible. I put the kitchen, bathroom and bedroom together first, so it felt like a home. Our favorite meal cooking in oven, a nice tablecloth and favorite dishes set for dinner. The tea kettle on stove and tins nearby. Fresh, new towels in kitchen and bath, soft sheets, a favorite quilt and fluffed pillows on the bed. That way, when you walked in, you felt the sanctuary and love of home. I learned early, little touches, slippers by the door, a bouquet of wildflowers in a beautiful thrift stor vase...a candle or fire going in the woodstove...a pie warming in the oven...it all meant home. We married in our mid-thirties and were blessed with 30 years together before my dear husband passed in a tragic accident. I felt lost and adrift, but I slowly rebuilt my life, moving once again, "feathering my nest" with little touches of beauty, a tea set, a victorian chair, a flowerbed, a favorite wall color, my favorite lamp, a treasued photo of our wedding day....yes, I have once again, made a place into a home, and I cherish the memories I packed up with me as I hopefully experience each new day with love in my heart and share my welcoming home with family and friends, for I know my husband would want me to do this.

You guys are simply ADORABLE 😍! Both of you!!! soulmates for sure. Thank you very much for sharing your life stories with us, 🤗 take care and eat more cake 🍰 I love how you spend time together and how much you enjoy each other’s company 💕💕💕💕

I just adore you both. It’s uncanny, how much my heart feels pure joy when I see your faces, hear your voices, learn more and more about you as a couple. The most perfect love match I have ever seen. Joerg, the way you continually turn and smile at Kirsten as she talks just melts my heart. All brides should feel so adored. The way Kirsten looks to you and honors your role as her precious partner...asks for your contribution to her story-telling...is beautiful. Forget the delicious strawberry cake. The sweetest treat of this film is the sight of the two of you, entertaining one another while entertaining us all. Till next time, take excellent care of one another... but I needn’t have said that. I already know you will. 💫✨❤️❤️✨💫

I love how Joerg is really getting comfortable on camera and how you laugh!

Thank you so much for sharing the photos and I love your wedding story! It's hard to believe that you've been married for 28 years because you both look so young to me! I'm German on my father's side. When I was a little girl we used to go to my grandparents house every Sunday after church. There was a German bakery and my father would buy several different pastries. One with cherries, one with apples, another with chocolate icing and finally one with vanilla icing. They were so good. Of course the chocolate was my favorite! We'd visit all day and have supper. Thanks for bringing back great memories! Take care!

Oh another wonderful video, your cake looks beautiful and delicious. However I do not believe Joerg loves the cake more than you Kirsten! 💝 thank you both for being so kind and generous with your time. Loved seeing your mum too, but my fave in this one, Joerg vs the fly! Take care both of you, and everyone, everywhere. Live long and prosper! 😊

You two are priceless. Love the stories from your past, the photos so endearing. Loved seeing mom and watching you bake. Always a treat each week. You're both a breath of sweet fresh air.

Joerg was very funny trying to get the fly.The cake looks delicious ..here in USA that is a strawberry shortcake .Was lovely seeing your mother and your pictures and stories about your wedding.You guys are the sweetest couple.keep up the wonderful videos.

Lovely to see your wedding and hear your stories.

Lovely video..Lovely couple

Lovely vlog! J doing his leaping fairy impersonation, Mum on Skype, lovely recipe and great photos and memories! Wonderful wedding, you both look gorgeous, beautiful gown Kirsten and Mum got the Groom's outfit spot on! Thankyou! XXX

You are both so sweet and charming. Thanks so much for sharing your memories with us of your house in Germany and your wedding. It’s so kind of you to do this in such an unprivate venue like KZfaq. The cake was also deliciously tempting. ❤️😺🐠

The cake is like a "flan". We enjoy the various fruits one can use.

this was such a nice "visit"....during this time of staying home, this felt like we dropped in for some laughter, tea, a treat, and shared stories and photos, just like we do with friends and loved ones....thank you for a lovely time!

Another fantastic video I love you two you are great together and I loved hearing about your stories of the past and your Wedding photos. Cake looked yummy. Thank you so much for sharing your lives with us you don’t realize how much joy you bring.

Joerg is finding his YT persona haha, And it's great! And Kirsten, you are one of many in the cake mix bowl-licker club haha. So relax on that. ;-) And you're Trekkies! Haha. Yay! Me too. All the way back to the original Star Trek with William Shatner. Yep, I'm that old hahaha....

Thank you for wedding pictures stories .And delicious strawberry cake.

What a lovely visit over tea seeing your beautiful wedding pictures and your previous home. I eloped at 20 my husband 25. My parents were very strict so I didn't have a wedding dress just a prom dress from High School. Lovely and enjoyable hearing you both share your memories. I feel Joerg is becoming more comfortable with being on camera and sharing more personality. Such relaxing enjoyable videos thank you for sharing. ❤

Oh, you two always make me laugh! So sweet, and lovely pictures. Twenty-eight and 32 years, blessings! I love that you are able to share both your German heritage and your love of the UK and it's history, it truly makes for such a unique experience. Danke!

This video was a real treat! A previous commenter mentioned strawberry shortcake which, in the south, is made with a large biscuit, similar to a scone. The biscuit is split in half to provide a bottom and top. The fresh berries are sliced and placed on the bottom half with their juices. The top is added and covered in fresh whipped cream. At least that's the way I remember it.

You make a wonderful couple.....Kirsten has a contagious laugh and it makes me smile thinking of how you both enjoy doing things together, like cake making....living in Italy there are some lovely fresh fruit cakes but usually the base is not made with sponge but usually has a pastry base. However, I love all you do together, keep making these super videos they bring so much happiness into our lives. Thank you.

I am so glad you both decided to come to the UK. You have taken us to some wonderful places and share your home too. It was lovely to see some photos of you both and to leave a home which you had made especially must have been heart breaking. So glad you found another house which you are gradually making into your new home. The story of your wedding day and the flowers going to the wrong church could have turned out so bad but it was sorted out in the end. Lovely to see you both laughing so much. XXX

Your cake turned out lovely. I think I shall try the recipe as I noticed it did not need butter. Your house was lovely, I can understand how you can miss it. A house is a home full of memories but you do end up taking those memories with you. Lovely wedding photos. I have been married to my lovely husband for nearly 37 years. Thanks for letting us share your memories with us. Take care ❤️

You were a lovely bride and groom. Still are! And from hearing your story, I think German mothers are a lot like Italian mothers haha. God bless them all. ;-) Thank you for sharing your special moment, and it's true, Time Flies!! And about your strawberry cake, There is a special treat in Pennsylvania in the US called strawberry shortcake. As you probably know, many Germans immigrated to Pennsylvania, and that's where the strawberry shortcake started. My first husband was of German descent, and his family lived in the gorgeous hilly region of northern PA. His grandmother, God bless her, used to make this cake. I can taste it now in my memory. It was that good!

Greetings & Salutations from Philadelphia, PA. As a U S Army Retired (1982 - 2005) Iraq War Veteran, I traveled to Germany on December 21, 2003..... you guessed it..... Christmas time. Lol! I'm not a drinker and I don't smoke. However, I had the warmed Red Wine they sell in the tent villages (I believe it was in Munich) and let me tell you, I fell in love with it. (Only during that time). I've never been drunk or anything, but, I would love to go back to Germany around the holidays. And you are absolutely correct, they love drinking at that time. I stayed in Garmish at a ski resort. It was beautiful to say the least. I'm a new subscriber to your channel and love watching you two enjoying and sharing your lives. You two are absolutely adorable. Continue to do what you do and be the best at it! Remain humbled and watch how the Creator will continually pour out blessings in your favor. Share your knowledge and fun filled secrets of recipes. I love it! I am African American, but, my great grandfather is from Ireland. Maybe one day I'll get to visit Ireland as well. I fell so connected to the UK for some reason. Heritage I guess. You two stay who you are. Much respect. I'll keep watching. It gives me joy to do so. Peace & Blessings, Light & Reflections 💯

We have a very similar cake in Hungary, the difference is that we put vanilla pudding under the strawberries (and we make it with all different fruits, I love it with bananas as well). Thank you for another lovely video! 😊

Thank you for the lovely memory I remember making that cake in Germany with my German friend Marion and again here in England of which I haven't made it for years . I have also attended a wedding in Germany it went on for days before and after it was fantastic. Thank you for sharing your happy wedding day memories too. Take care keep safe and well xx

This sounds like strawberry shortcake! It was my grandpa's favorite. I've been making it a lot lately for my husband and remembering my grandpa. Cake with fruit is also really popular in the US. I love seeing you in your Star Trek uniform and your wedding photos. I made myself a Star Trek uniform also many years ago. It's amazing isn't it, how life changes in ways you could never imagine. Loved this video!

Such a lovely tea-time chat. There is an old song...”Twenty years, where’d it go? Twenty years, I don’t know”. 👰🏻

Perfect timing Kirsten & Joerg; I could use your smiling faces & a pick me up!🌞

congratulations on the video, Kirsten and Joerg! I love your good mood lately; Your videos are always serene and inspiring, but lately you two have a different sparkle, I think! I wish you the best, with all my heart! I loved your mom, Kirsten and the photos! I could see you much longer; the longer the video time; the best! Keep going and stay safe!🎀👍🙌💖✨🍰👫💑🙏🦋🍀

It's like I can smell the strawberries lol...good job guys.

Eine Minute schaue ich zu und schon habe ich gute Laune, ihr beiden seid einfach so bezaubernd und umwerfend, ich weiß nicht, wie ihr das macht. Ihr habt eine so einzigartig positive Art. Macht weiter so, ich schaue eh schon lange jeden Video von euch!

It was so delightful to visit with you today,I was giggling along with you..we all have days like that...nice to see Kirsten’s Mum also..glad you enjoy your crockery often...my Mum used to make a German Butter cake...have you ever made it? Your house in Germany was very nice,having been to Sweden, & Norway,I can see why you liked it so much..thanks also for sharing your mementoes 🇨🇦❤️

This has been so much fun! I felt like I was sitting at the table with you....having strawberry cake and tea....and looking at your beautiful wedding pictures! Thank you!!!

This was delightful! Just so much like an in person visit during an unhurried time. In America, fruit topped cake is relatively common. I don’t think I could find the German cake mixture in Seacoast New Hampshire, but during June, there are strawberry festivals where strawberry shortcake is the star! I think women, generally speaking, have deep emotional ties to particular homes. I understood completely both your feelings in regards that home. It’s important to recognize all the experiences you’ve had in the UK might have been missed had the move not occurred. I have a childhood memory of a particular bedroom that I adored in an unremarkable house. I had a window seat and built in bureaus so all the floor space was mine. It was on the second floor, painted a buttery yellow. It received dappled morning sun as it was slightly shaded by a huge tree in front of the window so I could sit and read, dream, and have my solitude. Well, we moved. We moved a lot in those days as my Mother was always discovering a ‘better’ home even a few blocks away. It is a lovely memory I cherish and visit in my thoughts from time to time 🙂

I enjoy these videos; but, honestly my favorite thing is just listening to Kirsten's voice. I would love to hear that voice reading audio books. I could even listen to her narrate the phone book🤓 and be happy. 😊 And, she laughs from her gut- so good!

Thank you Kirsten and Joerg for sharing your beautiful photos and memories. Please share more. Kirsten, I understand your sadness about having to leave the house you loved in Germany. I had to give up a house I loved and it was so hard. I love your channel. Your videos are what is getting me through the loneliness of this pandemic. Thank you so very much. 💕💕

The comments on this channel are so lovely and positive, it’s amazing 💞💞💞🤞😀 You must be so pleased and happy 🥰🥰 PS: love your pottery! 🙏

So nice seeing your mother. Love the sponge cake with fresh strawberries. I've used heated up currant jelly as a glaze, which I learned from a friend. I enjoyed hearing about your wedding and Joerg saying you would have freaked out, which is an American expression. You both sound like Americans to me.

So lovely Kirsten and Joerg to be sharing baking in your kitchen .the strawberry cake looked delicious it was lovely having a chat at your kitchen table with a cup of tea. Showing photos of your wedding day .you looked beautiful Kirsten and Joerg looked good as well stay safe 🌻🌻🌹🌹🙂

I love scraping the bowl too Kirsten, it's the best reward for the baker. Your mum sounds like an experienced cook and knows all the tricks of the trade, if you cook this again turn it round halfway through cooking time. Lovely cake guys. Lovely story both, thank you for sharing.👍👍👍❤️

Love this video as I do all of your others! Thank you for sharing yourselves, English countryside, English villages etc. You allow me to travel from my own computer to a place I would love to see in person!!!

Lovely pictures!

Thank you for sharing your beautiful wedding pictures and memories. Now you can laugh about your day. You're married happily and that's what counts.

Hello Mom!!😊💞 Thank you for making such a charming and delightful person!!💞💞💞

Your videos are so joyful and a great watch!!

This is my favorite video thus far ! I just adore you two ...thank you both so much for sharing your life stories with us.

OMG, thank you for sharing your wedding and stories that go with it. Sweet house too. I don’t get really attached to that many things but when you have one built it has to be more special! You two are too cute! We’ve been married 46 years.

My husband and I got married in 1972, I was 19. My mother organized everything, church ceremony, reception, food from caterer. I did pick out the bridesmaids dresses, my dress and a live band. Thank God for our mothers.

I just adore this channel, my son and I love watching the both of you ♥️... we are watching now and dreaming our future trip to Europe! England is our favorite 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

That was a great video. Love the cooking and baking , especially when it’s German. It’s also nice to see photos and hear about your past. And...we got to see you Mother! Technology is great. She’ll have to send more family recipes for you to cook or bake. Thanks for sharing and take care 🇨🇦 ❤️

I really enjoy spending time with you "at your house" no matter what you're doing! You're just a lovely couple. The cake looked delicious. Here in the states, we make Strawberry Short Cake, which is very similar. The difference being, that the strawberries are cut up, sprinkled with sugar, stirred, and left to sit for a while before putting them over the cake. This makes them very juicy, which really moistens the cake so no gel is needed. Talking about it makes me want a piece!!! 😋 Thanks for another enjoyable video. Bettina from Connecticut

Love the video. The cake looked so good. Thank you for sharing your life with us from the UK. Have a Blessed week!

Lovely to share your special memories. In England we call that a fruit flan, I usually make mine with peaches in the summer. Harts of Stur make a nicely spaced flan tin so you have the ridge.

Dear You Two, That was just delightful, and a calming end to our day. I am definitely going to try and bake your delicious cake. I wish to send you both a virtual, socially distanced hug to say thank you for being such lovely people xxx

I'm on vacation and I'm binge watching all of your older videos that I've never seen. Honestly, I love them all! This one in particular I think because it was on a very personal level. Seeing your mom and sharing your photos and history was just lovely! Thank you so much for sharing that with us! ❤

Also Kirsten your laughter at the beginning was delightful...😊

Yummy cake and i just love your old house ..but your now house is so beautiful.. my husband and I met when we were 15 years old.many years ago now.lol..so many lovely memories we make on the way... I agree about the blur ...I never ate a bite that day lol.. what a lovely video...thank you x

This video was such a treat. The lovely cake, the pictures and the stories were great. My favorite German cake has always been Swartzwelder Kirsch Torte. (Probably not spelled correctly) Black Forest cake. Yummy.

Thank you Kirsten and Joerg for sharing the pictures a cake I love strawberry cake too yeah it has to have the jelly LOL what up cute house in Germany and I left the backstory that's what makes it special. Isn't it great to look at old pictures as well?. Blessings and much love

Thank you for sharing your photos, you were an exquisite bride and how wonderful to have the RR.

Very enjoyable lots of great memories ❤️

Lovely to see you both ❤X❤ Went to Wollerton Old Hall the other weekend, truly beautiful, Hollihocks to die for!! Thanks for your recommendation ❤X❤

Кирстен и Йорк вы чудесная пара смотреть на вас одно удовольствие клубничный тортик очень красивый а свадебные фото восхитительные желаю вам счастливой долгой жизни ♥️♥️♥️🤗🤗♥️🌷

I love the sweetness of you guys and your videos! In the Southern US, we make a strawberry shortcake-like dessert similar to your cake. We macerate quartered strawberries with brown sugar and then serve it over slices of pound cake topped with whipped cream. It is very popular in the Spring, around Easter and during strawberry season.

You looked beautiful & loved your wedding dress. The cake looks soooooooo yummy!! Love all your videos. You're both so cute together. 😁

Naughty fly! 😂 Lovely vlog! The cake is looking delicious! 😍

I know it as a flan and have made it with tinned tangerine segments and orange jelly as well as with strawberries. The first time I made it was when I was at senior school. Many years ago. Loved the wedding story and photos. 😊

Hi from Russia. Today I baked this German strawberry cake🍓 Thank you for the recipe, it's so simple and delicious👍

Cake looks yummy.... Loved your wedding stories... To buy a suit for a man could be a bit dodgy.... If all that needed altering was the trousers then that was very LUCKY... now if they had been too short.. Then there would have been a problem 😂😂😂❤️🙏🏼❤️you STAY SAFE TOO 💋

I so enjoy seeing you together..delightful as always!

Thank you both for sharing stories from the past! It is really nice to get to know more about the ones you see and listens to every week. The photo with you dressed in costumes was fabulous. See you next time!

I really loved seeing Joerg laughing. Great video...thank you for sharing more of yourselves with us!

The wedding pictures were beautiful. The strawberry cake looks yummy. I really enjoyed the video. Thank you for sharing your life you two are adorable. Bless you stay healthy and safe.

Oh the strawberry cake looked so delicious and summery. Just a little suggestion: When I was in culinary school, years ago, we learned to keep a water spray bottle always handy. When a fly would enter the kitchens we would spray them with water, which would get them sogged down and they couldn't fly. They'd fall to the ground and we could squash them and into the garbage they'd go. The chefs told us if you hit them with the swatter they actually, sorry for this description, splatter and they get everywhere....not the best in a kitchen.

Thank you for sharing these lovely moments. As always, I appreciate your videos.

Hi Kristen & Joerg,love to see u both together,creating happiness n joy,doing simple things...keep up your childlike enthusiasm...it's lovely n inspirational!💕

I love your stories. You both are so adorable.☺️

My husband and I have been married 47 years and yes, time does fly! You're right Kirsten, when you're the bride the Wedding seems like a blur afterwards, due to anticipation and nerves. I loved seeing your Wedding pictures, you're the perfect couple. Now I'm craving some Strawberry Shortcake with whipped cream! Until next time, Cheers!~

A darling video. Wish we could have seen the pictures better. That cake looked YUMMY! Your Mom looks so sweet!! Lucky you, Kirsten. Love to listen to Joerg talk! Love the way he looks at you, Kirsten! Stay safe and thanks for sharing!

In this upside down world right here in the USA your videos take me away from it all and give me calm, peace and laughter.. thank you both for sharing.. I live in Ct ( New England ) so it is not as out of control as the south .. I pray this ends soon

Joerg and Kirsten, you did very well, when decided to try plant based diet. Just try it at least for one month and you'll see amazing results, amazing body feeling. But better when it goes without sugar, flour and coffein (in coffee and tea)

Lovely video, brightened my day as always 💐💐

Nice to see a couple enjoy each other so much...wonderful to watch

Lovely cake, lovely crockery, lovely house, lovely bride and groom, lovely couple!!!!

Cake looks so delicious. I had forgotten Iused to make this cake with a shop bought base and “quick jel” ...now I need to make this again❗️ *What a beautiful bride and The most gorgeous dress*

you could always make vegan cakes ! applesauce as egg replacer, and using soy or oatmilk instead of dairy, those are my favorite !! hope you and joerg are well 💗

Thanks for sharing your memories. Your house is Germany was adorable. I’m so glad you’re still together and in love after all these years .

I loved it you both have been very creative during these times thank you so much the world needs more Kirsten and Joergs to let us know life is still sweet no matter what

What wonderfull stories and memories. Kirsten your dress was beautiful. You are both so sweet.guess what im going to buy at the supermarket tommorrow strawberries and cream to make the cake.

Thoroughly enjoyed this video as always. Showing some old photos and talking about your past was really interesting. You both looked amazing on your wedding day. Loved the baking segment, the cake looked delicious ! X

Thank you Kirsten & Joerg for telling your wedding story 👏💖🤗✨💐

You both are a breath of fresh air. I also didn't enjoy my wedding day because of the stress. I would like to retake my vows and do things differently but my husband said once is enough

ideal wife:you may not laugh at the sight of hurband trying to catch a fly. bad wife: Yay!it's funny and cute.Go jump and get it! Let's laugh together!😂 The cake looks delicious.

What a lovely couple you are, So very nice to see Joerg coming out of his shell. Absolutely love and look forward to your videos. x

Kirsten I’m a Trekkie too! Such a lovely picture of the both of you. My parents also planned our wedding as we were in grad school in the USA and my home is Canada. 33 years later we are each other’s best friend. So enjoyed the strawberry cake and trip down memory lane with the both of you!

Cake looks yummy, my husband would love it. Thanks for sharing a bit of your history...what a lovely couple you are. Take care.
