No staging, no filters, just a slow, cozy reset of our living room and kitchen to the sound of jazz.</p>

<p>Welcome back to my cozy nest! ☕
I love a clean, cozy home, but let’s be honest, it doesn’t always look that way after a weekend at home. In this video, I take my time tidying up: clearing our big table (which somehow collects everything), loading the dishwasher, scrubbing the sink with my homemade natural cleaning paste, and adding a few fall touches with chrysanthemums and pumpkins. Then I finish with a quick vacuum, and a sourdough loaf is already on its way.
A messy house isn’t a failure. It’s a sign of a home that’s loved and lived in. 🤍</p>

<p>🥤 My quick protein smoothie: 1 banana, 1 cup milk, 1 cup oats, 1 tsp peanut butter, 1 scoop vanilla protein powder. Blend it all together!</p>

<p>🧽 My homemade sink scrub: baking soda + a couple of spoonfuls of dish soap + a little water + a few drops of essential oil.</p>

<p>What does your home look like today? Tell me in the comments. No judgment, I promise. 😄</p>]]></content><author><name>Daria</name></author><category term="cleaning" /><category term="home" /><summary type="html"><![CDATA[A real-life clean with me after a full weekend with two kids and a dog.]]></summary><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/H2JkJG-tpss/maxresdefault.jpg" /><media:content medium="image" url="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/H2JkJG-tpss/maxresdefault.jpg" xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" /></entry><entry><title type="html">SATISFYING BATHROOM DEEP CLEAN | Cozy Cleaning Motivation 🫧✨</title><link href="https://dariascozynest.com/satisfying-bathroom-deep-clean-cozy-cleaning-motivation/" rel="alternate" type="text/html" title="SATISFYING BATHROOM DEEP CLEAN | Cozy Cleaning Motivation 🫧✨" /><published>2026-09-23T09:19:18+02:00</published><updated>2026-09-23T09:19:18+02:00</updated><id>https://dariascozynest.com/satisfying-bathroom-deep-clean-cozy-cleaning-motivation</id><content type="html" xml:base="https://dariascozynest.com/satisfying-bathroom-deep-clean-cozy-cleaning-motivation/"><![CDATA[<p>Join me for a slow, cozy bathroom reset 🫧: curtains in the wash, steam cleaner in hand, and a little unexpected chaos along the way.

<p>A stormy day, a small pumpkin, and a whole lot of cozy. 🍂
Today’s a slow one at home: a quick tidy-up, a rainy walk with Sandy through the blooming heather fields, and an afternoon spent turning one little pumpkin into puree, pizza dough, and a batch of soft pumpkin cookies. Tea in hand, kids finally home from their school trip, soaked but happy.
Some days don’t need much to feel good. This was one of them.
Thanks so much for spending this quiet moment with me. 🌿</p>

The kids are back at school, the light has that soft early-autumn feel, and it’s finally time to give my fridge and kitchen the deep clean they’ve been waiting for since summer.
Along the way, I’m sharing a couple of my favorite cleaning hacks: an easy trick for getting the sink stopper spotless, and how I make my own safe, vinegar-based cleaning spray at home.
Plus a little plant care, a batch of homemade granola, and a slow afternoon spent getting my home ready for the season ahead. Grab a cup of tea and settle in.</p>

<p>In today’s slow living vlog, I’m sharing a cozy clean-with-me after a heatwave in the Netherlands - airing out duvets in the sun, refreshing the bedroom, deep-cleaning the bathroom, and tidying the kitchen. This is a relaxing cleaning vlog with no talking, just calm music, ambient sounds, and subtitles.</p>

<p>If you love cozy home vlogs, slow living content, clean-with-me videos, and a peaceful daily routine, this one’s for you. I won’t be posting for the next two weeks as I spend the summer break with my family.

In this video, I’m trying out the no-knead method I kept seeing all over American Instagram and pairing it with my go-to sourdough recipe.</p>

<p>No stand mixer. No complicated techniques. Just flour, water, a little patience. And an Emile Henry Bread Loaf Baker doing most of the work.</p>

<p>I’m not a professional baker, and honestly? I think that’s the whole point. If I can do this, so can you. 🍞</p>

<p>🕐 What you’ll see in this video:
Feeding the sourdough starter
Mixing a no-knead dough
Stretch and fold technique (every 30 min x 4)
Overnight cold proof
Baking in the Emile Henry Bread Loaf Baker at 230°C</p>
