    Yay. We’ve come full circle. I discovered you after mentioning saving cereal bits with my sister and she recommended your podcast because of your muffins. I have been a happy viewer ever since. I love your vlog and hope you are having a great day.

    I’m so glad you’re doing these daily vlogs Ali. After your Vlogmas there was such a gap from not getting a daily insight into your lovely families life. So thank you for these little moments of joy ❤, Julie

    That patchwork pouch is soooo lovely!!! And I share your planner and highlighter joy ! Finally, the mushroom measuring spoons made me smile. I wish you knew what a bright spot in my day your vlogs are. They elevate the ordinary daily moments of family life to the real treasure they are. Thank you so much for sharing😊💜

      I do love a nice pastel highlighter, although I can get quite carried away 😄 Thank you for for the very lovely words, I make these vlogs to help me spot these little bright spots , even just the ordinary ones, to help me with my anxiety. I’m so glad it has the same effect for you! Thanks for being here watching ❤️

    Thank you so much for these daily vignettes. I use these a a way to destress from my busy days. And you are inspiring me to walk more during the winter. We already have signs of spring here in South Carolina. Take care.

    Glad you are making an end of January blog. I struggle through January even though it is my birthday month. I made myself go out into the garden today to do a bit of tidying and then did too much. But I do feel much better in myself for getting out into the fresh air. I keep thinking of making a simple journal to remind myself of things to do and what I have achieved. It's so easy to get into a rut.

    Here’s something interesting…. Evie Woods has written other novels, but under her real name, Evie Gaughan. Might be worth checking out as you enjoyed The Lost Bookshop. Thoroughly enjoying your UA-cam channels. Found you through Back to Blighty and Slip Slip Ginge.😊

    @mzmarihudson8013 8 місяців тому

    A little choc syrup to add to your coconut water ? Lol. Occasionally I like " egg creams". Which have no eggs! Maybe once upon a Time they did, but essentially it's a fizzy chocolate milk drink, a little milk and chocolate mixed with mostly seltzer.

    @suecoles7824 8 місяців тому

    Oooooh Ali is that a toadstool spoon you were using? Or a spotty spoon !😅 the muffins looked delish!😋 How exciting going abroad, I must admit it’s been so long since we went, maybe 10+ years 😮 Love & Hugs, Suze. 🤗🥰🤗 xxx

    Do you have a planner for all your note books 😂🤣( cheeky me ) I start with good intentions but fall by the wayside
    I love the way you gave yourself permission to be messy in your journal 😳

    I was given an early birthday gift when I learned you are doing a week of vlogs. My birthday is Thursday, and it is a treat for me to have your vlogs to watch this week! I share the sentiment of another viewer when she said what a joy your vlogs are and how you have the gift of elevating daily life and showcasing how special it is! I have also begun using different notebooks to hold my ideas and to do's. I have begun to see January as a springboard for a refresh and new beginnings, thanks to you! ❤

    I’ve got a notebook that I jot stuff down in that’s been on the go for about thirty years! It’s become more of a Christmas book in recent years to remind me of what worked and what didn’t! Lovely vlog Ali. Xx

    I absolutely loved The Lost Bookshop. I wasn’t expecting the ‘magic’ twist when I started reading it but so enjoyed it. Have you read ‘Being Netta Wilde’? If not I would recommend it. The muffins looked wonderful by the way.

    Those ear pods are terrible for causing infections and ear balance issues , my daughter’s had so many ear infections in the last few years with them. X

    • @Sharon_L
      @Sharon_L 8 місяців тому

      I can’t wear ear pods as they cause me ear pressure problems because of eustachian tube dysfunction, plus I suffer from vertigo. They’re probably also negatively affecting people’s hearing, so your daughter is likely better off not using them in the long run.
