RENOVATING A RUIN: Hosting Friends for My Birthday in Tuscany & Bathroom Renovation Update

It was my birthday and we had friends come stay with their children so this episode I’m sharing some of the desserts I baked for them, as well as a few updates on the rustic Italian bathroom renovation. You can find my contact details, postal address, recipes and other info on my website:

Every day I get so many emails and comments asking why you can’t locate the music I use or find it using Shazam. I purchase music licenses for almost all the music you hear in my videos. I buy them them from various royalty-free production music sites and most of the time they don’t list the performer because it’s music made only for film productions with an audio watermark throughout the entire track, unless you purchase the single-use license for $50-100 per track. I use a lot of opera so often I’ll reference the opera but I won’t be able to direct you to a recording of that specific performance that you could stream or buy on iTunes or Spotify. Hope that clears things up and thank you for appreciating quality music.
Please don’t follow me on Facebook as that person is not me – they have stolen my identity for the past few years.

  1. Happy Birthday and may you have many more with such amazing friends and family around you! Gianfranco is so sweet, I hope and pray he is feeling better!♥️????

  2. So beautiful Kylie! The music was so peaceful and elegant! You are such a hard worker I cant believe you were doing that floor by hand, and then doing all that cooking and taking care of your sweet baby boy! Blessings to you and your little family. May God keep all 3 of you healthy and safe! The country side is just gorgeous this time of year, thank you for sharing it! See you next week!????♥️????

  3. You have an absolutely beautiful home and property. I love how everything is coming along. John Carlo (misp) is so precious. Blessings to you and your family.

  4. Acqua di Sirmione is so great…I use it in the shower everyday of the year…to clear out the nasal passages because I, too, have symptoms during many periods of blooming…perhaps you already use it. The sulphur is so strong when you first open the little glass bottle!!!!!! Fresh from the terme….and so healing.

  5. What a fabulous update Kylie, and all that wonderful food as well. I am with Guido on the perfect combination of chocolate and orange. The Princess Cake looked amazing. I am so glad you got to celebrate your birthday with friends in fabulous weather. You bring warmth and sunshine to us all and that is so much appreciated as we have very cool temperatures in the UK at the moment, so this video made me believe that Spring will arrive here soon. The bathroom is already looking spectacular and so pleased that the swimming pool is going to be ready for the warmer weather.
