I must say your videos have become my comfort watch and a weekly source of inspiration, especially because of your creativity and drive for learning whether it’s knitting, journaling, pens or music. I especially appreciate your sense of style and your hair too of course! As an aside, I was telling my partner I suspected you worked as an art teacher/teacher and I was delightfully surprised you were. Much good cheer and solidarity from a fellow public servant and happy holidays ❤
I think that everyone is getting sick by the end of the year, I am on the final stretch with work this week as the university closes on Friday. Hope you will feel better soon and enjoy this lovely time before Christmas :)
I always enjoy your videos. They make me smile. 😊 I’m glad Bryan got to stay home from the trip. With him just being so sick recently, it’s good it got cancelled. I hope you don’t get too sick. Lots of vitamin c, broth and rest. Take care!
I hope you feel better soon - it's no fun being sick, especially over a holiday. I'm with you on the Karbonz needles. I have a set of DPNs from them and I really dislike using them. I'm used to ChiaoGoo steel needles, so I don't like the "drag" of the carbon fiber part. I think I'll give the steel Chiaogoo DPNs a try. :) Happy holiday season to you!
the colorway of those mustard-cuffed socks is gorgeous! Nice choice. There are some excellent double-pointed needle rolls on the market. I have one from Della Q that I love. Also the large circular needle case from Della Q is tremendous as well.
I think I have the same head cold right now. (Also a teacher.) I hope you feel better soon! I’m so glad you get such a lovely break to relax and refresh yourself. Your gifts all look so cozy and lovely.
That shawl indeed looks like a part of you! I think all teachers get exhausted by the holidays. I now teach at a childcare for a private university, and have been sick/losing my voice all week. It’s hard to not have a voice when you have a class of adorably needy two-year olds! My job has better work-life balance than K-12 teaching did, but it’s physically taxing, plus I’m taking college classes again. It’s so nice you get two weeks off! Rest up and enjoy. Oh, I also have a Pendleton coat, 80% wool-a Christmas present from my husband this year. He doesn’t get why I’m so exhausted during the holidays, but he does get me what I ask for😆
Hi Alicia - I’ve meant to ask for some time if Bean Is still OK ? I mostly watch your pen videos so apologies if I’ve missed any updates . I seem to recall Bean in your Minnesota trip but guess he’s an old man now so 🤞🍀 he’s still OK. Lovely to see Fig 🐶 and the team.
Thank you for sharing your time with us. I hope you have an amazing holiday season.

Nice cover. Enjoy the time off and life.
These "Vlogmas" videos are great. So cozy.

Socks are so much fun! They aren’t boring at all and I love knitting with 5 needles. I use wooden needles.
Love your video!! I miss that road, I miss Arizona! Here it’s cold and humid, oh well… take good care of yourself!

Sorry to hear you're feeling sick. Hope you perk up for Christmas! 🎄

I hope you get well soon too and have a restful break. Thank you ☺️ 🙏🏽
TFS. Hope you feel better soon 🙂

Looks like Hacienda Del Sol Rd., N. Tucson in the Catalina foothills is so scenic to drive through. Happy Holidays! 🎄
It sure is! I agree, so scenic a drive.
I love how the content of your videos vary, makes them more enjoyable to watch! I do hope you feel better soon ✨️🤍
I would love to see the acorn squash recipe, if you have the time and energy to pin it. It does sound like a great recipe for potlucks.
Thank you for inviting us in to your life. Echinacea is what I take when I have Man Flu 😊
Feel better soon! Your knitting is lovely and what a special gift to receive something knit with love.
Thank you so much!
lovely video
That roasted squash looks delicious! Could you share the recipe please? 😋
Alicia, please take a peek at Twin Aura Knits Vlogmas if you get a chance🎄🎄🎄🧶
One of my favorites🎄👍. Fun🎉
The pancakes look seriously delicious!
They were!!
Is that a Pendleton jacket you are wearing? I have a vintage one that was my mother’s, different color way but so, so similar.
Yes it is! It’s also a vintage one, found it a few years ago at an antique store.

Hello! He’s still full of life, and not an old man yet! He had a little cameo in my last Vlogmas video. :)
That’s the best news - have a great Christmas. Will check out your vlogmas especially for Bean.
Hello from Pinetop we would love to have the recipe very yummy dish ❤
