一家人都让人感到很舒服，永鸿单纯质朴、三三力安可爱、特别是米粒，我特别喜欢，内外兼修的气质和能力我很认可和羡慕，特别喜欢她宁静、多才、慢条斯理、踏实、清晰知道自己的内心的状态。让我这个特别不会诗词的人都想到了一句话形容米粒：腹有诗书气自华，说对了没有哦😆我带着俩个女儿生活在瑞典，我身上有青藏高原的血液也有重庆人的味道，我和孩子们都是素食者，所以更感觉亲切，祝福你们！🌸

We are at about the same age. I can't believe that you two are so good at managing your life and raising kids. Watching your videos make me feel relax and peaceful and sometimes I even laugh unconsciously. I am a young researcher and always feel anxious. Will you feel anxious occasionally (cause I couldn't feel any of it from your videos)? I am very surprised that how could you people live in this way, peaceful, happy, and fulfilling.

@miriamk.5644 3 жыл бұрын

That's exactely what I thought and I'm wondering about the same thing. I really like Miriam and Yonghong's lifestyle, everything seems so neat and tranquil, a life centered on the essential. At the same time they are achieving so much. I think that both of them can be really proud of their achievements, be it familywise or in terms of their filmmaking / business. I'm also a young researcher struggling with anxiety and I wonder how Miriam manages her life so well.

@MiriamFollin 3 жыл бұрын

I want you to know that both I and Yonghong have anxiety sometimes. I never experienced it until I got pregnant for the first time, so I think it has to do with the responsibility of having children. We are not always happy and at peace, we argue, get tired, and have unproductive nd unfulfilling days too. I just don't share it, I never feel inspired to film when I don't feel good. And I also don't want to put negative content out there - I think there is ebough stress and anxiety in the world. But I guess it's a fine balance, I don't want people to think we are living a perfect life always so peaceful. But I want my videos to be peaceful and relaxing, since it's the kind of feelings I feel worth spreading. If that makes any sense?

@miriamk.5644 3 жыл бұрын

@@MiriamFollin Thanks for your answer! I really appreciate it. Your answer really does make sense and it is what I assumed. No one is happy all the time and no one is free of anxiety… well, most of us I guess. Still, I think you are a very brave and inspiring lady. It takes quite some courage to settle in a foreign country so far away such as China and it requires even more skills to adapt as well as you did. Very inspiring indeed. I like the message you’re spreading and I always feel happy and relaxed after watching your videos. :-)

Here need to mention on San San’ s caring nature towards his mother..@12.37 ,he is asking his mum to wear his glove when picking the nettles...awwww...melts my heart.. the other time was in another video when he urged her to use the rolling pin while making dumplings ..what a lovable thoughtful boy.... To Miriam and Yong Hong, you both deserve to be very successful...so much talents..:):)

Your soup reminded of the time during detox at Thailand when we were given a bowl of soup in the morning. All sorts of wild plants and organic leafy vegetables were blanched and puree to make the soup. To thicken the soup, pumpkin was added and also sacha inchi powder. That was another way to make the soup thick instead of using cream. All the wild vegetables chopped can also be added for extra flavour in a lentil base soup.

It is always great to see you foraging! Ingvar seems very knowledgeable. We have wild leeks or 'ramps' as we call them, around where I live. If you chop them up very fine, or in a food processor, and add butter, it makes a delicious wild leek butter that adds flavour to anything. I often use it in scrambled eggs, and I make lots and store it in the freezer to enjoy later in the year. Your mother-in-law would be proud of you, making baozi Swedish-style! You are so adventurous. By the way, your paintings are lovely. You definitely have the touch of an artist!

现在kirskål附近的地方有很多的蕨菜，蕨菜炒大蒜老干妈辣椒酱非常好吃，但是需要用开水煮一会把它捞出来再它撕开两半炒辣椒酱。Kirskå吃的方法有点像吃红薯叶，把叶子丢掉不吃，把根的老的下面也不要，耐心的去皮，留上面的嫩的根炒大蒜放胡椒盐生抽一点鸡精炒着吃，非常香，野韭菜如果在盐开水了煮半分钟捞出吃非常清甜，试试。切碎和鸡蛋混合煎鸡蛋吃太香了。
