SPEND A CHILL BIRTHDAY WITH US: Lockdown 50th Birthday Vlog

hi there so today is my birthday and i'm quite excited and giggly i don't know why and yeah yoga and i thought we would be filming a little bit throughout the day and just share what we're up to it's just the two of us as you know and i just had a huge surprise i got this gorgeous flower bouquet from jurg and then i got another surprise delivery and i have no idea who sent this and i just opened the card and it's from york's mom sarah from my mom-in-law it's so nice this is beautiful so i have two huge flower bookies and they make me happy yeah and first you were telling me yeah did you order a second i had no idea did something go wrong because it's the same it's the same service yeah that's so strange but this one is beautiful as well so when i when i opened the door there were these two big bouquets and i was like i thought the lady probably thought why isn't she happy but i was just confused for a second so i put these ones in mars as well but you know what we usually don't really we don't really have big glasses because i i don't really have a lot of bouquets throughout the year because i don't know i prefer garden flowers this of course is beautiful so [Music] lovely oh they smell so nice thank you i will put that one on the table what do you think yeah it's gorgeous it's lovely and you know what i can do now is i will lay the table then i have another big surprise coming so the first thing i'm going to do is remain our coffee table it's probably a very german thing to do [Music] to finish it off we have table cards kirsten and yak so you need to see them close up so we have some place cards made with pheasants and we've got our name with hashtag fab 50 kirsten but not only that thinking of what might be coming later in summer we have them for all our family and they are different pictures and so they have different different kind of pheasants and we were taking them to germany later in the year so one of my sisters was so kind and she sent a big parcel together with my parents with two balloons and it is so so kind and funny so of course we're going to use them today so this is a bottle of champagne and we have the champagne glass as well so the first balloon for vintage good times very fitting and this is the champagne glass cheers that would be the right size for [Music] you balloons are up why you're so dark jack that's lovely the next highlight is waiting which has to do with it starts with a c what was that really yes here's the surprise a lovely pastel colored cake which was on my wish list and it's gluten free and yeah i will tell you how that came about later it's quite big isn't it and a little bit of bunting beautiful i really love it this is so nice makes it so special you know what i can use so this morning i opened the card from my oldest sister and open it and it had 50s in the card and i can use them we can use them for the table and just place them around the cake [Music] now let's have some cake it's quite big this would be it would be enough for our entire family and i think because there will be lots of leftovers we will freeze some some slices i'm sure then we can just have that and share it i'm excited oh that looks nice see that looks lovely hmm so which is fun to fill up like that that you can get our initial reaction thank you give it again it's good oh it's good oh this is lovely this room this reminds me of um in germany like i have the last gluten-free cake made when i turned 40 that was used before we moved to the uk and it is similar it's really good so we have this cake made from their devonshire devonshire bakery in frosham and they have a cake studio i'm not sure how to pronounce it krother's creator's cake studio something like that and i came across i did a lot of research actually you know remember like i discovered the most beautiful cakes in london and they are called april's bakery and i can move out for you you will fall in love with the cakes and i got in touch with several bakeries here none of them said they could make it because it's i i don't know a kind of thrilling technique that not everybody can do and they were so kind and they said send us a picture and we try to get i don't know to get it as close as possible it's not the exact same thing but it's still beautiful it's gorgeous it is gorgeous and these are georgian colors you know what this actually reminds me of richardson when you watch fredericton it's very similar so as for presents there's nothing we can show you at the minute no customer doesn't get any presents you know what that's totally fine that's so fine by me as long as we spend time together but remember on christmas i told you that i i really want an apple watch which yes might be a gadget yeah which we ordered but it didn't arrive in time no it will i don't know it will arrive in 10 days as some of you know young and i do nordic walking and when we travel or visit some national trust properties we do a lot of walking and it's nice to i don't know keep track of that and yeah it's something i've really wanted for a while and one of my sisters she ordered something from burley pottery which is amazing and that hasn't arrived on time either and i figure that it's because of lockdown as well like you remember last time i ordered something and it took so long probably i think they don't have enough people currently could be yeah and my parents are so so kind and they will contribute to having our our slipper chairs reupholstered so that's wonderful yeah can't wait to have that me too and other than that we will try to have a soon call tonight yes yes yes and you will probably make us some non-alcoholic cocktails will you do it yeah you get non-alcoholic and um you can you can try you can try the alcohol the non-alcoholic and then gradually yeah start into helping alcohol yes but there's something um some there's something else my sister and my parents in and that's something sweet yes you can have a try so let's let's share i think the cake wasn't sweet enough it was it was amazing but of course heavy but you know what today is the day of indulgence yeah so fine so they send some chocolates it's called kevin cooper which is such a funny name yeah because kugel yeah and google in german means ball yes ball kevin ball yeah and lots of chocolate and it looks amazing wow yeah that looks so good yeah and i thought i would share this company because you have to know about them they are called the pentillious mr peace place card company this is where we got their place cards from and if you're looking for something really special i'm glad i stumbled upon them this is the bakery i stumbled upon on the website sherlock's april's baker and london and if you have a look here all the cakes they look so beautiful and yeah i got in touch with them but it wasn't possible to look to deliver here the career would have been far more expensive than the cake itself but they said if we're ever in london or if we're in london the next time we should pop in they are so gorgeous so in love so if you live in london check them out i think it's so worth it so what else is happening we will have some takeaway indian and we have it i think three or four times a year and today is is the best day for it and it's our favorite indian takeaway service i take away restaurants yeah it's wonderful yeah the funny thing is um we discovered indian food in the uk yeah it's not the same in germany and we had it when my parents were here and they absolutely loved it as well and yeah it's i'm looking forward to it and we will share it with you and it's always really really good yeah it's nice yeah although i must say i'm still i am i have two slices of cake which is probably too much it was quite sweet and heavy but i don't know i have to show you i mean today's the best day to have cake and you actually confirmed it yeah yeah with your card yes so this is the card it's always a good day for cake and it's from emma bridgewater and we don't have cake every day sometimes i i bake cake maybe every three months so not not as often as you think but today is a good day yeah it is and you see there's still plenty of cake oh god yeah so much it's getting messier by the minute in the kitchen but i hope that's fine say yuck is going to make a non-alcoholic cocktail which is called fruity mocktail because i don't i don't like alcohol so this is what i chose and it sounds good and i i think it's nice here it is fruity mocktail from bbc good food i think it sounds nice and we both love orange juice and it says it's very very easy to make what i'm doing you're preparing the skus and they have blueberries and grapes oranges and it says in the recipe it says what does it say orange juice orange juice but we decided to make to make the orange juice fresh because that's so much nicer [Music] it's a really old machine yeah it is very old you got it farm i know when we got it when we had the house built it was like a present from the bag or something it was yes i now remember you know why they gave us that so they could squeeze the leg but now all our pennies are and now you need yeah what's it called grenadine yes grenadine so one teaspoon i'll take a little bit more really don't you think that's too sweet no so this is mine yeah you've got one i've got two yeah we'll see how it tastes then top it up with orange juice do you think we need more orange juice uh you know what i think we would have needed higher glasses for this girls that's fine they aren't high enough you have to serve it like that fruity mocktail for tip you can sit down oh see they are they're just half half of it but these ones are bulbs yes miss sophie skull something is missing no yeah i think in the summertime it's really good oh yes yeah i think it would be a lot better with with some eyes and it just came to my mind that i want to show you this because this is a christmas present from one of my sisters it came a bit later which is totally fine and like um three little pots from le creuset and they are so beautiful you can use them for souffle for tiny dishes and she said that they are perfect here in the kitchen and they really are them so what's next what's next mister preparing for the sinkhole oh preparing that sounds like a meeting i don't think it is not too much let me see let me see yeah yeah because that's how it should have looked like yeah i see what you mean happening [Music] what's up gin definitely not what's your plan spicy enough seriously i'll give it a try oh god uh well it sounds pretty disgusting but um maybe some whiskey on top as well this is your non-alcoholic cocktail with alcohol now let's give that a try with some more grenadine was a little bit better actually yeah that yeah it's a little bit better you know what i think there wasn't enough grenadine in it okay now let's try a red one it smells good this is almost as lively as our new year's eve you know what we could do well we can't do it not here maybe in the attic we should do some karaoke oh yes but we could never share that on youtube because we would lose all of our subscribers or maybe you would you you would be a big discovery yeah i would maybe not a big discovery maybe a big embarrassment talking about singing last weekend we watched bohemian rhapsody and it was amazing it really it touched me yeah it was a really touching movie it touched me so much that i wasn't able to sleep and i was never a very big queen fan but i am i am now i re i am now and i think freddie mercury was such a special person and although he died at such a young age he is i i don't know he's not really dead is he he's just he's so extraordinary and i think so many musicians are still inspired and yeah if you haven't watched the film give it a go because we really loved it yeah what do you think i don't know if you don't like rock music no but it's not wrong it's it's no no it's a special kind of rock it's so yeah it's so so special i like this kind of music music because it has a drive i don't like i'm not i'm not the guy who listens to balance onto this camera no no truth i should be getting ready for the sumo thank you oh my god [Music] [Laughter] [Music] is [Applause] we just had a zoom meeting with our family in germany and it was amazing this is the first time i've used it and it's lovely i mean i do talk to them my skype or facetime but having them all together is so nice i think yeah yeah how long did we talk like one and a half hours and it was like it was really funny my sister had some sandwiches and she was like here do you want some it was really funny it was nice i mean it's definitely nicer when you're like when you're together in real life and in the meantime we got our take away food this is yours you have a starter what is it called veg samosa yeah let's have a look i'll wait we never had that before so that's nice i hope oh that looks nice so yeah what did you order okay this is our main york has got afghani chicken it's called afghani chicken and i have a combination of chicken tikka masala and and chicken karma is it chicken korma and we've got some pilaf rice this is my favorite this is koma and yours oh it smells nice i know it's the first time you have ordered this one so that's chicken tikka masala chicken karma yep afghani chicken yeah cracked and rice pilaf rice this looks amazing smells good yeah this is when it comes to indian food i'm quite boring because this is my favorite food but i must say that yes looks very very good so maybe i'll have that next time is it gluten free i don't know i think it is i think it is so ignore the makeup ignore the hair i don't care anymore it's i don't know time flies it's 9 p.m now and i don't know we have a zoom call one and a half hours so we had we had dinner which by the way was lovely and now i talk to my mother-in-law and we actually plan on playing a game but i'm not sure but i have to show it to you once more because it's a game we played in the cottage yeah in the pink cottage that we shared or that has so many views on our channel and this game is hilarious we can really so when our gods and luca came to stay with us we bought this game called what's that smell the party game that stings and it's it's amazing it's funny yeah now i see this warning delicate noses beware player discretion advice can you open it for me how many for how many people is it actually up to six oh up to six people so the sad thing is it's a bit late to start it now because yuck has to get up very early tomorrow morning to go to the office so we will do it some other time which is fine or you know what we could do maybe we can take it to a cottage and we can stay somewhere but there's one thing i want to show you and you can see my reaction so we haven't played that in two years but i thought i would give this one a try on camera just this one whiff of shame and it says here brush here to release stack york says he can already smell it but i don't so you have to smell at the cart but i'm not sure it really in the smell of an armpit yeah i
