Dearest Lexi, I always find this time of year to be bittersweet. On the one hand it is, by far, my favourite season. The weather is cooler, and the light begins to take on a golden hue. Stars seem brighter and the harvest Moon is always magical, as it rises swollen and coppery orange into a dramatically cloud swept sky. Colours of the changing leaves range from pale rich amber to fluorescent reds, and the evergreens hold them aloft like floating gilded lace. I want to walk, and I want to travel. It creates a restlessness that is difficult to ignore. But then, the increasing darkness can be hard to accept. I find that I dread the looming winter. The restlessness stays with me as I begin to feel hemmed in, anxious that I've not achieved all that I'd hoped to before the season turns. Tomorrow I leave on a road trip to Arnprior, north of Ottawa. It's an eight to ten hour drive each way. I am visiting a friend for a few days. It should be a spectacular run, with endless views and vistas of bright forests, northern lakes, and rolling hills. You have inspired me, and I plan on using the time to reflect on how wonderful life actually is, and how fortunate I truly am. Every day is a blessing. It is wonderful to see you again, my friend! Thank you, as always, for sharing your own unique gentle wisdom with us. Sending much love... Marian 🇨🇦

Lovely vlog and talk . Pumpkin spice 🤪 good one. That lovely fluffy moving pumpking tail in your lap .

Wishing you all the best as you chase those dreams!

🍁 Pumpkin Spice Recipe for a Cozy October Day ⬇️ Dear Dreamer, I've never had anything with Pumpkin Spice. I feel like in Germany, it is not such a big thing, but I've seen it all over Social Media and really wanted to try it. So I caught that little Autumn Dream on a cozy October Day. 🎃 Pumpkin Spice Recipe : (it's the recipe I found online, please let me know if you have a different one 😋) 1 tsp. of Allspice 1/2 tsp. of Clove 1 tsp. of Nutmeg 2 tsp. of Cinnamon 1 tsp. of Ginger I mixed it with warm milk and whipped cream, and it was really delicious 😋. I caught some more little Autumn Dreams, too, like making a Bee-Wax Autumn Leaves Garland. If you want to join me on my little Autumn Dream Chase click the link above the title of this Short 🍂📜🍁 Let's catch some Autumn Dreams... Love Lexi

Happy to have stumbled upon your channel! :) This is exactly what i needed right now.

❤❤❤❤❤❤

Beautifully balanced! 🧘

Wieder mal ein Kunstwerk❤ Ist mir schleierhaft, wieso deine Videos nicht mehr Aufrufen haben

🍂Let´s start a conversation: I am curious about your take on how to truly enjoy the time we have with the things we love. I often notice myself being torn between excitement and dread whenever I am looking forward to something. I get overly anxious thinking about how easy it is to lose the things I care about. And I know that I have the tendency to rather miss out on something than put myself at risk of losing it. And that behavior often prevents me from going after the things I want. I constantly remind myself that I might not be able to hold on to a moment or a thing that is important to me but that that should never prevent me from letting myself go for it and trying and making the most of it. I want to know if you can relate to that or if you have a different approach or philosophy about this topic so if you want to share some wisdom please leave a comment. 🥰 Enjoy the Season 🍁

Hallo liebe Lexi, ich bin zufällig über einen Kommentar von dir, bei Daria, auf deinen Kanal gekommen. Ich fühlte mich so berührt und leicht gerade als ich dein Video angeschaut habe. Ich kämpfe gerade mit Long Covid wo man nicht weiß wie lange es dauert wieder aus dem psychischen Tief zu kommen. Wochen, vielleicht Monate.... Es kam, und ich wusste nicht was mit mir los ist. Ich bin doch sonst immer für alle da und kann noch mehr machen.... Die Krebserkrankung meines Mannes im Feburar diagnostiziert, und schon Monate vorher ängstlich im Kopf, alles kam zusammen und dann noch Corona Anfang Juni. Seit ein paar Tagen habe ich wieder mehr Lust etwas zu machen. Unser Urlaub war einen Katastrophe vor drei Wochen. Mein Mann meinte es tut uns gut, aber in so einem lust- und energielosen Zustand war das nicht so. Der Arzt sagte ich brauche völlige Ruhe. Das heißt Verständnis von der Familie. Wenn man nicht betroffen ist kann man es nicht genau verstehen was da im Körper passiert. Ich weiß es auch nicht. Bekomme bei Stress einen Crash dann geht nichts mehr. Herzrasen. Ich freue mich dass du für dich immer wieder einen Weg findest mit diesen Ängsten umzugehen. Die eigene Geschwindigkeit festlegen. Achtsam mit sich sein. Das mache ich auch. Schön dass es dich gibt! Ich bin mit meinem Mann auch oft im Schwarzwald unterwegs. Mal ganz unten in der Nähe von Baiersbronn, oder nicht ganz so weit weg in der Nähe von Dobel. Ich sende dir viel Licht und dass es dir gut geht. Sei achtsam mit dir. Ganz liebe Grüße, Gabi:)

🌲 Natural Fir Tip Soda Recipe ⬇️ Dear Dreamer, I caught a little dream... Did you know that you can make bubbly soda with just 3 ingredients at home? I didn't. It was a lot of fun making naturally carbonated soda with Fir tips from the forest. 🥰 So here's the recipe. Ingredients: - a handful of fir tips (some guidelines for the harvest are down below) - 1l of water - 3 tbs. of sugar Instructions: - harvest fresh fir, pine or spruce tips - give them a rinse. The tips contain wild yeast that is key to the fermentation and if you wash them too harshly the soda won't get as bubbly (or so I've read, but I made this soda twice and can confirm that it was more naturally carbonated when I didn't wash the tips as harshly) - put the fir tips in a bottle and fill it up with water, then add the sugar - close the bottle and give it a good shake, then place it in a sunny spot at your window - after 3-4 days there should be bubbles. Those are a sign of the fermentation process (careful when you open the bottle 🍾) ❗Don't drink this when you are pregnant! I've heard that it was used as a way to abort unwanted pregnancies! Guidelines for harvesting fir tips: - the fresh tips grow during May - make sure you harvest pine, fir, or spruce tips. There are poisonous evergreens out there so please do your research. Pine normally has very long needles, spruce is very stingy and fir has two white lines at the bottom side of the needles - ask for permission if you want to harvest them in a forest. - the best time to harvest the tips is when they just opened - make sure not to take the centre tips, but rather the ones on the left and right sides. Don't take from very young trees because they won't keep growing in that spot for up to two years. Also, don't take too many from one tree It tastes very peculiar 😂 probably better with lemon but still worth a try. I might catch this little dream again next year and experiment a little more. Let's catch another dream... 🪶 Love Lexi

Danke für deine Videos ❤ Mir geht es sehr ähnlich wie Dir und ich fühle mich sehr verbunden. Danke dass Du Deine Gedanken und Gefühle teilst. Ich habe auch vor fünf Monaten mein erstes Video hochgeladen und seitdem kein weiteres. Nun ist dein Video für mich wie der Löwenzahn für dich - und ich bin auch dem Löwenzahn nun sehr dankbar. Ganz liebe Grüße

So good and so beautiful ❤️

🌲 I caught a little Dream..(again)⬇️ I made this Delicious Syrup a couple of years ago with spruce tips. I needed to refill my stash. This time I used fir tips. 🥰 This is not just a sweet treat but also a natural cough remedy. Ingredients - Fresh fir, pine, or spruce tips (careful there are poisonous needle trees out there so make sure to do your research. I also have a couple of suggestions and guidelines for harvesting down below 👇🏻) - 1 lemon - 1l of water - 500g of sugar Instructions: - give the fir tips a good wash and then add them and one liter of water to a pot and let it simmer for 30 minutes - let the mixture sit overnight covered with a lid or cloth (12-24 hours) then strain it through a cheesecloth - add the sugar and lemon juice - Cook it on medium heat. Make sure to stir regularly so the sugar won't burn. It takes around 30 minutes before the sugar starts to thicken. - To test the consistency of the syrup pour a few drops onto a cold plate. Once it's cooled down you can see (and feel) how thick the syrup would be. If you cook it too short the mixture will stay quite liquid (there is still a lot of water in it). If you cook it too long it will get solid like candy after it cooled down. So make sure to test it occasionally. - sterilize your jars and lids. The dishwasher is sufficient, but you can also put them in the oven at 120 Celsius degree for 15-20 Minutes. Make sure the jars don't touch each other. The lids can be boiled in hot water to sterilize them. - pour the syrup into the jars, close the lids, and flip the jar upside down for a couple of minutes - store the fir tip syrup in a cold and dark place. Mine lasted for a whole year. Once opened you might want to store it in the fridge. Instructions for harvesting - the fresh tips grow during May (at least in Germany where I live 🥰) - make sure you harvest pine, fir, or spruce tips. There are poisonous evergreens out there so make sure to do your research. Pine normally has very long needles, spruce is very stingy and fir has two white lines at the bottom side of the needles - Make sure to ask for permission if you want to harvest them in a forest. I was in luck. I found a cut-down tree that was left to rot - The best time to harvest the tips is when they are just about to open. - make sure not to take the centre ones, but rather the ones on the left and right sides. Don't take from very young trees because they won't keep growing in that spot for up to two years. Also, don't take too many from one tree If you have questions, feel free to ask 🥰 Let´s catch another Dream together.

Beautiful ❤️

What a beautiful story. I woke up this morning to find your video on my feed, somebody new to me. It really resonated with me. I've been chasing a dream for a few years now, its pieces slowly revealing themselves to me, while I struggle working in a job that isn't a good fit. But I need the income. Jobs aren't plentiful here and this is the best option from what's available. As I got ready for another day, this brought me a smile and a gentle way to start the day. I wish you well and hope you too have a peaceful day.

So happy that you are back! 💗

Oh schade. Es ist zu weit weg gefilmt. Wie ist das mit der 2 Runde? Einfach "drüberknoten"?

🌲 I caught a little Dream ⬇️ Let's make healthy dandelion potion 🧙 excuse me, juice 😉. Instructions - harvest fresh dandelion flowers and leaves and give everything a good wash - remove the petals from the dandelion flower (the easiest way for me was when the flower was completely closed. That happens overnight) - put the leaves/flower petals in a blender and mix them with water - strain through a cheese cloth - store the bottled juice in the fridge. Mine lasted 3 days It tasted very peculiar. The older the leaves are, the more bitter the juice apparently gets. So maybe I waited a little too long 🙈. But the yellow petal juice was rather tasty 😋. Let me know if you'll ever catch that little dream yourself. 🥰

this is great! thanks for sharing :D

🌲 I caught a little Dream...⬇️ These healthy and delicious energy balls with freshly harvested dandelion turned out so amazing, tasty and pretty 😋 Recipe (8 energy balls) Ingredients: a handful of dandelions 65g of almond butter 1 tbs. of honey 20g of oats 1 tbs. Psyllium husks or flaxseeds 4 tbs. of cocoa powder Instructions: -give the dandelions a good wash and then remove the petals from the dandelion flower (the easiest way for me was when the flower was closed) - chop a fourth or your dandelion petals in tiny pieces - combine all the ingredients in a bowl and knead till you have a smooth dough. If it is too sticky add more cocoa powder or oats - form little balls and roll them in the chopped dandelions - store the dandelion energy balls in the fridge (mine lasted a couple of days) or in the freezer. I loved them. It might have been a little peculiar to eat those flowers that have been part of my life for so very long, but those energy balls tasted really amazing! Let me know if you ever catch that little dream yourself 😉

Dear Lexi, Dreams come and go. They drift through our thoughts and our lives like the elusive scents of rare blooming flowers. They can't be forced, nor can they be predicted. They can only be embraced, briefly, before they slip away into the mists of the past, soon to be replaced by new dreams for us to pursue. Your videos are much the same. They come as you envision the dreams, collect them, and weave them into small tapestries of joy and beauty. Each one is an achievement, a delicate gift of balance...and we are grateful. One thing you shall never be, my friend, is forgettable 💞 It is wonderful to see you again! Sending much love, Marian 🇨🇦

This seems really good ❤

I caught a little Dream... ⬇️ Let's make healthy and homemade Dandelion Powder for yogurt or smoothies. Instructions - harvest fresh dandelion leaves and give them a good wash - rub them as dry as possible with a towel - dry them in the oven at 40-50 Celsius degree till crisp. Make sure the oven door stays open so the moisture can escape. It can take quite a while. I tried to air dry the leaves but they won't get as crisp, so it is difficult to turn them into powder. Another option would be a dehydrator - motar the dried leaves till you have a powder, the finer the better. Make sure to remove the stems of the leaves. - sieve the powder and store it in an air-tight container It is a time and energy-consuming task. But I really enjoyed the process of it. So far I tried to use it as a matcha alternative. The powder was not fine enough even though it tasted fine. I will put it in my yogurt next 😋 Let me know if you ever catch this little dream yourself. 🥰

It's nice to have you back in here, no matter your name or how often you post! It's a huge step to recognize that you should prioritize yourself over your videos. I find your videos are beautiful and I hope that soon they will get the recognition they deserve.

I have two main dreams. One is to really connect with people through my writing. I have been writing (mostly poetry) for 4 years now and just recently self-published my first poetry book and getting ready to release my second soon! I've been attending open-mics and submitting my work to exhibitions and stuff, and I've been loving it! The second is to be an amazing and inspiring teacher. I'm in college working toward a teaching degree and also working at a school to start getting experience, and it is so rewarding! Every day tests me so much, but nothing motivates me more than seeing the impact I can have on these young lives. Thank you so much for sharing your dreams and journey, and for helping inspire us to catch our own dreams :)

Hoffentlich magst auch Du diesen längst vergessenen Oldie von Sir Raymond Douglas Davies.......einer meiner Allzeit-Favoriten ua-cam.com/video/VHWoftjolyI/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared

My dream is to carry on converting our shed into an art studio. I had given up as it’s so full of #### but I’m determined to carry on. Btw it’s not my stuff that’s it’s full of 😊

I personally really loved and connected with your old channel name, but i understand and respect your decision. I'm glad to see you back and always happy to watch your videos whenever youre able to post :)

🌲 Which little Dream are you currently chasing? Let me know down below ⬇️ Welcome back my friends, it has been such a long time. I hope you are all well, happy, and content. 🥰 I finally caught this little dandelion dream that followed me around every single spring for the last five years. I made dandelion powder, juice, tea, and energy balls (those tasted amazing 😋 ). Now it is time to catch another dream...

Dear Lexi, Just a quick note to say "Hello", my sweet friend. It is snowing heavily here today, and all the sounds are muted. It has been such an erratic winter...rain, mild weather to freezing cold, yet very little snow. I went for a long walk earlier, and it is strange to hear the Spring birdsong and to see the returning robins, who definitely appear somewhat bemused by the white wonderland all around them. Right now the beauty of the snowfall is giving me a feeling of coziness, as I watch the Sunday world go by outside my front window. By Tuesday it shall be warm and sunny again, but for now I will enjoy the moment. You popped into my mind, and I felt a need reach out. I hope this finds you well 💖 Cheers, with love... Marian 🇨🇦

Beautiful and very soothing words. Thank you!😊

Thank you for the beautiful scenery, and sharing your life with me. I enjoy watching your many projects. You are a delight! You bring peace and joy to my day 🙂.

Hallo aus der Schweiz Wirklich schöne Videos....und nicht zu lang, wie bei anderen ASRM-Artistinnen. Die Kreation dieser Schoko-Deko war sehr beeindruckend, ebenso das akzentfreie Englisch. Nur eine winzige "Kritik" sei mir erlaubt: Die Musik ist mir - als Tinnitus-Opfer - einen Tick zu laut.........hier müsste an der Balance noch etwas nachgebessert werden.Ansonsten wünsche ich Dir viele 👍 und Abonnenten

thank you

Please don’t give up on your dream, even if it doesn’t happen next year. Dreams give us hope. They are an expression of our creativity. You are very special. You bless all of us. Thank you

Thank you for reminding me I've been a child once ☺️ and that I still can seek for lightness and fun at this exact moment of my life, Lexi!! 🥹🧡 It really changed my day. Ps: this gotta be one of my fav video here! I feel grateful I can come back to your channel for a friendly cheer up time 🥰
