Hi friends! 💓Great to see you again. Wanted to send a little extra love to those affected by hurricane Helene and Milton ❤Hoping y'all are safe - that is incredibly scary. Here's a link to the American Red Cross if you wish to donate for hurricane relief: www.redcross.org/donate/dr/hurricane-helene.html/ If you have any other organizations you'd like people to check out, please leave them below (links sometimes get removed so just listing the website name is probably best) Also, letting you know that I have friends/family visiting me the next couple weeks so if I don't reply to your comments right away that is why. Much love and many hugs 🫂
Can we just all agree that this is a guilt free zone. I’m proud of you for listening to your body and getting some extra rest. Please never over extend yourself for content because you know we will watch you and the kitties just chillin for days! 🥰🙌🏼
There have been, and still are, times when I’d get home about 5:30, go to sleep on the couch during the 6PM news, sleep until 9 or 10, go to bed at once, sleep until 7AM the next day. It’s definitely your body & mind saying “hey, take a break from everything for a bit.” For a long time it worried me that something was wrong, then I realized how much better I would feel. Seems like it was 4 or 5 times a year when I was working full time, not as often in retirement. As this comment says, this is a “guilt free zone.” Even when we’re at rest at home, with nothing pressing, and no immediate worries, our minds don’t stop working so our body has to keep working also to provide energy for our mind. The mind/body connection is real.
Oat milk: just put 1 litre of cold water with 1 cup of oat in a simple blender, pinch of salt, dollop of honey or maple sirup. Blend for 45 seconds (it’s enough!) and then strain. Nothing hot if you don’t want to have porridge! Also, if you blend too much, it becomes glue. Don’t need any machine except a regular blender. I make my oat milk in this way for years.
@@ChelseaCallahan Use amylase for the oat milk to turn out like store bought. Its an enzyme that breaks down the starch slime into sugar. Its what oatly and other brands use to get the smooth consistency
I understand the feeling of guilt when staying home on the weekends when it’s nice out, but I have a fun rebranding for it called enjoying my rent. By saying that it makes me feel like I’m doing an activity even if it is just me taking a breathe at home
Ooh another me! Yes feel a little bad for everyone but at the same time I am currently skipping the streets in the cold and dark like ITS MY TIME!!! lolol
I have the oppostie SAD, I LOVE fall and winter and cold and all things cozy! I thrive this time of year. I hate summer and the heat and never ending daytime...I know, I'm weird! Love your kitties!
ME TOO!! My summer/heat anxiety usually starts around April every year. California weather is just way too warm for me. I just want to hibernate like a bear but during summer 🐻
I'm a baker at a sourdough bakery and literally clapping, giggling, cheering at the screen seeing you make your starter! We give our starters a name (you'll bond with it and never forget to feed!). Put some of that starter in a foccacia dough and it will be the best foccacia of your life! I once made oat milk at home too and it turned out exactly like that HAHAHAH it was like pancake batter and i put it in my coffee, it was horrible hahahaha. Loved this cozy vlog Chels, see you next time! ❤❤❤
Lololol 😂 you’re killin me with your reaction to your milk. 🤣 I make almond & cashew milk all the time. You were doing it right, but I’ve found that oat milk comes out slimy 😝 so I don’t use oats anymore. Soak your cashews or almonds first - you’ll get much more milk out of the final product. And yes - you were squeezing it properly, perfectly!! 👍😁 *also, Amazon sells nut milk bags if you want more. I have 3 that I rotate.
Hey Chelsea, chronic overthinker here. I have been stuck in thoughts of the past that it has had a negative impact on my present. Gotten a lot better but still working on it. Just wanted to remind you that you are never alone❤. All the best!
It’s so important for us to listen to our bodies! I’m glad you took care of yourself and got what sounds like much needed rest. Also really loved the dress you wore to the roof top party!
Hi Chelsea today I had a negative narrative in my head & for some reason you came to my mind and I pulled myself together because how you inspire me with your strength 😭😭😭😭 thank you for creating this community for us you are such an amazing kind person just wanted to share this
@@ChelseaCallahan I wanted to add - a good TV recommendation for you if you like Nobody Wants This but feel it's a little lacking - Fleabag! Only two seasons, but it packs a powerful punch. You won't regret it, trust me 💕
Love the vlog as usual!! Some tips for the sourdough starter from a hobbyist: - if you're struggling to see activity, try switching to dark Rye flour (or 50/50 rye and white). It has way more nutrients for the starter bacteria and is more forgiving. - Look into discard recipes so youre not wasting all the spare starter! Discard pancakes are a great place to start :) Good luck!! Sourdough can be unforgiving lol
Hi Chelsea, Don't know how long i been watching your daily life blogs but all i know i am exciting every time you put one out. You are my favorite ❤ TH-camr 👍 You rock!
Hey there- I am in NC in the very city hit hardest by Helene and this is so nice - to be back from the tech blackout. I am a total introvert and don't drink and I LOVE being home- pretty much always lol :)
I discovered you last week while visiting NY with my sister to see a RadioCity show, We walked the streets of manhattan wishing we’d live there. We hoarded food into our hotel apt and opened TH-cam and you popped up💕 immediately we looked at each other and both subscribed haha we loved watching you because we related so much! It’s been a week and I immediately look forward to when you post ☺️ I recently had to move back home with my parents as a 30 year old after living alone (with two cats🤭) for two years and god do I miss that peace alone with my cats lol so I love watching you and reminiscing/dreaming of going back to that life. Thank you for showing the “messier” parts !
Hi Chelsea! I’ve had a sourdough starter for about 3 years now. I started it from scratch and it took about 10 days before it was ready to be used to make sourdough. My first loaf was a big flat disc (but still tasty!) I’ve managed to make great loaves since then. :) Some things I’ve learned that might be helpful to you: - it’s best if you use a kitchen scale, not measuring cups, especially when it comes to feeding. - weigh the jar (I’ve written the weight of mine on the outside of the jar, it helps when it comes to the math, because there will be math when it comes to feeding it!) - I use a 1:1 ratio of flour to water, I’m sure you can use different ratios, but this has been working for me and makes the math easier - you can put the lid on the jar, just place it on and don’t screw it (and I’d put tape over the hole of yours) - once the starter is heathy, keep it in the fridge and feed it once a week - you will likely get sick and tired of feeding it; I certainly have! Mine is currently in my fridge, having been unfed for about a month, with a layer of hooch on top. I’ve been debating whether I should just let it die or feed it, but I think I’ll feed it since having homemade sourdough is awesome. The most helpful sourdough how-to that I’ve found is a video by Food52 called ‘How to make the Best Sourdough Bread’ Sorry for the verbal diarrhea, but hopefully some of this will be helpful and you won’t make some of the mistakes I did. Very much looking forward to a bread making video! 🍞
@@wendyjames8764 I did not mean anything negative in any way, just to be clear. I liked it; it is only recently I have seen the word salad term. I will say that I have had verbal diarrhea expressed as work salad…. LOL
@@Weezieweeks one more addition to the sourdough advice, there are ways to maintain your starter that don't require such large feedings if you wish to not have so much discard as one person can only eat so much bread (sourdough is delightful but I'm sure you are familiar with the struggle of cooking for one person). Bake With Jack has some great info on this. Have so much fun with your sourdough journey chelsea!
Chelsea girl!!! U got me inspired by all your cleaning and rearranging vids to get my apartment looking happy again!!! I just got into a depression and kind of just gave up! But now my apartment is upside down atm. Lol I’m ripping out carpet and putting in wood floors and painting the kitchen and dining and living room. It’s just getting started on Tuesday in 4 days so thank u girl for sharing your days cause it brightens up mine! Love love the fur babies and enjoy seeing them play and cuddle with you❤
I am glad you were able to get out of your seasonal depression! That’s no fun I know! And there’s nothing wrong with spending a weekend at home. You don’t have to go out to have fun. I am, of course glad you did and hungover or not lol it really was the best thing for you ❤ 😊As always love your podcasts!
If there's anything I've learned from your channel, it's how important self care is. Please give yourself permission to practice that as well ❤ great vlog Chelsea.
You are so fortunate to live there! There's always stuff to do, people to see, sights, sounds, foods to enjoy. I realize its not always rainbows and butterflies, but its much better than other parts of the world. Thank you for sharing! 😊✨💐
I laughed so hard at your oat milk making attempt. Thank you for that. I have no idea what went wrong but it was the best laugh I’ve had in a long time. Love your authenticity.
@@ChelseaCallahan Good luck with your sour dough. I think another comment mentioned adding rye flour to white flour. Yeah, it has wild yeasts to culture the starter in order to ferment and create lactic acid. Hope you show the results in the next video. Super Chelsea.
Ok, watching you with the milk strainer and tasting it was the hardest I've laughed all week! Love the realness and the fact that you're not ashamed to post a video where something didn't go perfectly. Hope someone's tips can help you and you can become an oat milk extraordinaire! Surprised your vet said to wait till 7 months... my cat was found as a stray at 6 mo. and was already pregnant (before I adopted obv.). Love watching the little kitties get bigger. Thanks for another fun video!
Yes, the 7 months is concerning. My cats (3 siblings) were spayed and neutered well before that. If you don't want kittens, please get a 2nd opinion and at least get Gordo taken care of--since male neutering is easier/less traumatic than spaying.
No guilt…ever. It’s not worth any guilt over anything. Your cat babies are thriving and have won life’s lottery in landing with you. That nut ‘milk’ looks like glue 😂😂😂. Don’t worry about tidying things up, squeeze the life out of your 30s, it’s fleeting. You rock Chelsea ❤❤❤
Hi Chelsea : ) Where do I sign-up for 13 hours of sleep!? You had me laughing out loud! 🤣 I love it! Love it all! And the promo footage and those "intrusive thoughts" were perfect ... as always! Thank you for such engaging content and entertaining me while on a break at work! [insert grateful prayer hands here] : ) I too have been practicing meditation/breathing in the mornings before I get ready for work/start my day ... I ride the intrusive thoughts like waves: they come in and go out and I let go of judgment a little each time. It's a work in progress for sure. : ) Thank you! See you next time! P.S. Gordo and Deli are everything, but I know you know. 🤣
Hi I’m 36 living alone and I love you videos just found your channel last week you make such relaxing videos that’s motivated me to try new things and make my apartment my happy space ❤
It is always fun to watch your videos. I loved the oat milk disaster. It makes me feel better that reading instructions badly is a shared experience. Always loving the cats.
this is so cute. i love how raw and honest you are sometimes while also being conscious with keeping boundaries privacywhise. concerning the nutmilk. i didn't/don't have that same blenderthingy, but when I used to make oatmilk it did work (and taste!) better for me with cold water. have a great week. always excited for your videos on fridays xx I'm here for the time to come..
This video soothed my soul. Your bit about the reminiscing keeps one stuck in the past made me wonder about myself and people who don’t have anything to look back on, and then think that they have nothing to look forward to. I love the conversations you spark
I watch your videos as soon as I can every week. I appreciate the honesty of sharing everyday life, it is inspiring and comforting because I can relate to it. I do love watching your cats grow up. The Jane Fonda workout on the wall at the dance party was hysterical!

ITS A CHELSEA FRIDAY VIDEO! Yay I can commence w my Friday! Fall is my new favorite season as well. 🗽🍁😻😻Although I looked at the weather forecast last week and for next week and it’s they said SNOW upstate. NOT OKAY!
@@ChelseaCallahanRITE..?! It got too cold too fast. I luv Fall but SNOW IN OCTOBER…?! No thank you Mother Nature. SAD is bad enuf but if it snows before Thanksgiving is unacceptible imo!
Oof, Chelsea. That seasonal depression hit me hard (and so early!). I'm a summer gal, and the overcast weather got me so sad. Kind of worried about winter lol.
I am amazed by how fast your babies are growing, I didn't know you need to wait 7 whole months until the procedures can be done. Enjoy the fall, the colours and the coziness. It's always so nice to "catch up" with you every Friday. Have a great weekend, Chels. Greetings from Germany🤍 PS: I wish I had some skills in the kitchen, so I can give you some tips on how to make nut/oat milk, but I don't, I'm a disaster😂
What a treat to find a Chelsea episode today when i needed cheering! I had one of my dogs put down today due to many old dog medical things, but it's so fun to catch up on your life and see you with your cats. it's fall out here in the PNW.
Hurray for listening to your body! Please never feel bad about sleeping for 11 hours - if the body needs it, the body needs it! Meditation is central to my life, and I enjoy the Deepak Chopra App, or just pure silence (which challenges me to let go of the never ending thoughts!). Glad you're feeling a bit better and getting out there. 🍂Autumn is my absolute favourite time of year, and I am getting out a little more walking 🥾on the nature trails. It is Thanksgiving long weekend in Canada, so happy Thanksgiving to all.... and my thoughts and prayers go out to those affected by the hurricanes in the US.💜
Love your videos...been around since ththe beginning. Proud of you for making the starter and venturing out in the cooking/baking world. You should look at getting A liquid measuring cup, if you don't already have. I got a set from Pyrex because I found they made a difference in baking since measurements are precise. Good luck! I'm really proud and happy at how far you have come.
Not sure if you will see this comment but from one cat mom to another: I have 2 sibling cats and also wanted to obviously get them spayed/neutered asap so I don't get any unwanted kittens... they were hesitant about spaying my girl so early but I did convince them to neuter my boy at 4 months cause the procedure isn't as invasive. And thankfully I did just in time as my girl went into her first heat at 4.5 months... getting the boy neutered early also helps prevent them from spraying everywhere and mine always sits down while peeing so that is another plus! Your kitties are so cute!!!
Visiting New York for the first time on a work trip next week (I live in New Zealand) and believe I've been watching you every week as study time (even before I knew about the trip!). This has made me even more excited to experience fall in a beautiful city
The kitties are getting so, so big!! How fun! I’ve been dealing with a lot of stress and overthinking lately due to a new job, so hearing you chat about your recent struggles was simply nice to hear. I use Headspace for their sleep meditations, but need to use it more for morning and during the day needs. Thanks for the reminder!❤
That was fun........I miss happy hour with friends after work. BTW: 2 battery operated sconce lamps on either side of your bed would be nice for "reading lamps". I have that 'guilt' also...staying inside when it is absolutely beautiful outside
My husband and I were in the city for the weekend and walked right past that dance party you were at!! It was while they were showing the aerobics videos. Crazy!
This is exactly what I needed after a mentally draining day at work ❤️ Was gagging during the oat milk tasting part which magically took my mini migraine out 😂 We adore you! Even my family in the Philippines watches all your videos ❤
I weirdly love the Trader Joe’s hauls getting tossed on the counter as much as the views of NYC! 🤣 (And how was that pumpkin bisque, by the way?) Yet another fun vlog that made my night as you sputtered that gummy oat milk, hee hee! Better luck next time! Never a dull moment, even in a so- called ordinary life. Love it!! Keep on doin’ what you do! And I’m glad you’re feeling better, my dear. Clinks all around! Clink, clink! ☕️❤☕️
Hi CC - I couldn’t help but laugh at the cashew/oat milk situation and then found myself smiling through the rest of your vlog! Thank you for brightening my day. ❤
I have been in New York on vacation this week (5-12 October) from LA and I’ve loved it! I’m a Brit living and working in LA and New York has such home vibes. My Mexican boyfriend who was raised in California hasn’t quite enjoyed the weather as much as me, but he’s enjoyed himself and got plenty of key chains to add to his collection
Aw, this is such a cozy vibe! The rooftop party looked fun. And the cats are adorable as ever! Please keep us posted on making your own nut milk. I'm curious!

bahaha I love that
Oh my gosh I love that! “Enjoying my rent” is so true!
This is why summer gives me more depression than winter!
Yes, always listen to your body. I'm 65 living alone, but even with the age difference I find your vlogs very relatable.
I don't comment every week, but I am here every week with you 😄
Me too 😊
Same!!🙂
Ditto😊🐈⬛
Yep - me too! 🤗
Me three😊
I feel for those of you who have a tough time in winter. That’s how I feel during summer/warm months.
saaaaame! in my prime now lol
I knowww!!! Now that it's finally getting colder I'm just living my best life lol
@@julesy_jones6145 Love the fall and winter.............cant take the heat of summer!

Same. I used to LOVE summer in NYC. Spring too. But now we barely have Spring anymore and summer heat was so oppressive I just wanted to hide inside!
Me too I like fall and winter I’m not a summer person though I do like the beach.
ME TOO!! My summer/heat anxiety usually starts around April every year. California weather is just way too warm for me. I just want to hibernate like a bear but during summer 🐻

Love the realness and the fact that you're not ashamed to post a video where something didn't go perfectly. Hope someone's tips can help you and you can become an oat milk extraordinaire! Surprised your vet said to wait till 7 months... my cat was found as a stray at 6 mo. and was already pregnant (before I adopted obv.). Love watching the little kitties get bigger. Thanks for another fun video!
Yes, the 7 months is concerning. My cats (3 siblings) were spayed and neutered well before that. If you don't want kittens, please get a 2nd opinion and at least get Gordo taken care of--since male neutering is easier/less traumatic than spaying.
No guilt…ever. It’s not worth any guilt over anything. Your cat babies are thriving and have won life’s lottery in landing with you. That nut ‘milk’ looks like glue 😂😂😂. Don’t worry about tidying things up, squeeze the life out of your 30s, it’s fleeting. You rock Chelsea ❤❤❤
Best way to start the weekend! Looking forward to seeing how you’ve got on this week 🥰
Great Vlog. Feels like you're getting comfortable with your life, which is good. Be Well, and hugs to your furbabies.
I’ve never been to NYC and am fascinated by how many plans can come your way! Seems like such a fun way to live & you seem fun ❤
Hi Chelsea : ) Where do I sign-up for 13 hours of sleep!? You had me laughing out loud! 🤣 I love it! Love it all! And the promo footage and those "intrusive thoughts" were perfect ... as always! Thank you for such engaging content and entertaining me while on a break at work! [insert grateful prayer hands here] : ) I too have been practicing meditation/breathing in the mornings before I get ready for work/start my day ... I ride the intrusive thoughts like waves: they come in and go out and I let go of judgment a little each time. It's a work in progress for sure. : ) Thank you! See you next time! P.S. Gordo and Deli are everything, but I know you know. 🤣
Watching your videos has got me back on two things 1. Running earlier this year 2. And now back on headspace. Thank you Chelsea! ❤

Hi I’m 36 living alone and I love you videos just found your channel last week you make such relaxing videos that’s motivated me to try new things and make my apartment my happy space ❤
Hi Chelsea
I know nothing about the blender, but you can just add more water to it afterwards. That shouldn’t be a problem.
It is always fun to watch your videos. I loved the oat milk disaster. It makes me feel better that reading instructions badly is a shared experience. Always loving the cats.
I get so happy when i see a new video Friday at lunch time. Does that make me so lame or so fabulous? Not sure, but you're cool! Have a great weekend!
It makes you fabulous!❤
Chelsea. My wife and I watch you every week and you had us both laughing so much with the straining of the oat milk. Love you ❤❤❤
this is so cute. i love how raw and honest you are sometimes while also being conscious with keeping boundaries privacywhise.
concerning the nutmilk. i didn't/don't have that same blenderthingy, but when I used to make oatmilk it did work (and taste!) better for me with cold water.
have a great week. always excited for your videos on fridays xx
I'm here for the time to come..
❤
Work session with pals followed by a happy hour is SUCH a great idea!
This video soothed my soul. Your bit about the reminiscing keeps one stuck in the past made me wonder about myself and people who don’t have anything to look back on, and then think that they have nothing to look forward to. I love the conversations you spark
Loving the grind, also obsessed the NYC fall vibe 🍁🧡🎃 , homemade milk is crazy tho… 🥛
I used to workout to that Jane Fonda video. I still have it. I never thought people watch it at parties.
I love your humor! I giggled at your “intrusive thoughts” during the headspace ad, and your reactions to the oat milk lol
Your kitty babies are growing up 🥹…sending love and some happy fall greetings from Knoxville, TN!
I watch your videos as soon as I can every week. I appreciate the honesty of sharing everyday life, it is inspiring and comforting because I can relate to it. I do love watching your cats grow up. The Jane Fonda workout on the wall at the dance party was hysterical!
ITS A CHELSEA FRIDAY VIDEO!
Yay I can commence w my Friday!
Fall is my new favorite season as well. 🗽🍁😻😻Although I looked at the weather forecast last week and for next week and it’s they said SNOW upstate. NOT OKAY!
snow???? already??? i'm so sorry lol
@@ChelseaCallahanRITE..?! It got too cold too fast. I luv Fall but SNOW IN OCTOBER…?! No thank you Mother Nature. SAD is bad enuf but if it snows before Thanksgiving is unacceptible imo!
Oof, Chelsea. That seasonal depression hit me hard (and so early!). I'm a summer gal, and the overcast weather got me so sad. Kind of worried about winter lol.
❤
I am amazed by how fast your babies are growing, I didn't know you need to wait 7 whole months until the procedures can be done. Enjoy the fall, the colours and the coziness. It's always so nice to "catch up" with you every Friday.
Have a great weekend, Chels. Greetings from Germany🤍
PS: I wish I had some skills in the kitchen, so I can give you some tips on how to make nut/oat milk, but I don't, I'm a disaster😂
Thanks so much for rescuing your cats. That was a tremendously compassionate thing you did!😻
I’m an over thinker too! Sometimes it’s good you really learn a lot about yourself no really Chelsea❣️ great vlog always❣️❤️🥰
Flashbacks to whatttt Chelsea!!!!????
What a treat to find a Chelsea episode today when i needed cheering! I had one of my dogs put down today due to many old dog medical things, but it's so fun to catch up on your life and see you with your cats. it's fall out here in the PNW.
awe i'm so sorry to hear that ❤🩹sending you a giant hug
I love that you're at home with yourself, kitties are adorable 😊❣
Hurray for listening to your body! Please never feel bad about sleeping for 11 hours - if the body needs it, the body needs it! Meditation is central to my life, and I enjoy the Deepak Chopra App, or just pure silence (which challenges me to let go of the never ending thoughts!). Glad you're feeling a bit better and getting out there. 🍂Autumn is my absolute favourite time of year, and I am getting out a little more walking 🥾on the nature trails. It is Thanksgiving long weekend in Canada, so happy Thanksgiving to all.... and my thoughts and prayers go out to those affected by the hurricanes in the US.💜
Love your videos...been around since ththe beginning. Proud of you for making the starter and venturing out in the cooking/baking world. You should look at getting A liquid measuring cup, if you don't already have. I got a set from Pyrex because I found they made a difference in baking since measurements are precise. Good luck! I'm really proud and happy at how far you have come.
❤❤❤
cozy and satisfying fall lifestyle vlog! ❤❤
Not sure if you will see this comment but from one cat mom to another: I have 2 sibling cats and also wanted to obviously get them spayed/neutered asap so I don't get any unwanted kittens... they were hesitant about spaying my girl so early but I did convince them to neuter my boy at 4 months cause the procedure isn't as invasive. And thankfully I did just in time as my girl went into her first heat at 4.5 months... getting the boy neutered early also helps prevent them from spraying everywhere and mine always sits down while peeing so that is another plus! Your kitties are so cute!!!
Yes, that's what I was thinking also. Good advice!
I’m on maternity leaving and had to leave NYC for it, and I’ve been loving your videos cuz they make me feel at home❤
I LOVE the music you use in your vlogs. It reminds me of the 80s, especially the outro music. ❤ The 80s was the best decade of my life!!
Visiting New York for the first time on a work trip next week (I live in New Zealand) and believe I've been watching you every week as study time (even before I knew about the trip!). This has made me even more excited to experience fall in a beautiful city
every time i see that wall paper in your bedroom i think of 15 ish years ago. it just has that vibe, like something i'd have in my teen bedroom.
I loved how you edited the video! I really enjoyed watching your vlog 🥰
It’s always so hilarious and so real watching your vlogs ❤ hope to see more experiences in the kitchen chef Chelsea 😂😂 kisses from Portugal 🇵🇹 😘
The kitties are getting so, so big!! How fun! I’ve been dealing with a lot of stress and overthinking lately due to a new job, so hearing you chat about your recent struggles was simply nice to hear. I use Headspace for their sleep meditations, but need to use it more for morning and during the day needs. Thanks for the reminder!❤
That was fun........I miss happy hour with friends after work. BTW: 2 battery operated sconce lamps on either side of your bed would be nice for "reading lamps".
I have that 'guilt' also...staying inside when it is absolutely beautiful outside
I just stumbled onto your videos about a week ago, but I’ve been really enjoying them! Feels very cozy and real and I appreciate it!
I hadn’t seen the last few videos and omg the kittens are so big! I feel like you just got them yesterday. They grow up so fast ❤
My husband and I were in the city for the weekend and walked right past that dance party you were at!! It was while they were showing the aerobics videos. Crazy!
This is exactly what I needed after a mentally draining day at work ❤️
Was gagging during the oat milk tasting part which magically took my mini migraine out 😂
We adore you! Even my family in the Philippines watches all your videos ❤
I weirdly love the Trader Joe’s hauls getting tossed on the counter as much as the views of NYC! 🤣 (And how was that pumpkin bisque, by the way?) Yet another fun vlog that made my night as you sputtered that gummy oat milk, hee hee! Better luck next time! Never a dull moment, even in a so- called ordinary life. Love it!! Keep on doin’ what you do! And I’m glad you’re feeling better, my dear. Clinks all around! Clink, clink! ☕️❤☕️
the bisque was pretty good!! recommend with some croutons 😎clink clink clink!
Love fall too Chelsea, and no you can’t be the only one that feels that seasonal affect as soon as fall hits, I’m with you on that!!
Looking forward to your sourdough journey.
Hi CC - I couldn’t help but laugh at the cashew/oat milk situation and then found myself smiling through the rest of your vlog! Thank you for brightening my day. ❤
Love sourdough, I had no idea it was that easy to create a starter
Loose the overhead light in your living room and get a couple of lamps. Will make your space feel warmer and less harsh. ❤
yes!!! we watched 'nobody wants this' and loved it!! so cheeky, so fun! definitely recommend if anyone sees this comment!!
Kitty LOVE😻😻 + NYC Fall🍂= Perfection!
Congrats on 100K!! I swear the last time I watched a vlog, you had like 50K, and that wasn't long ago. Congrats🥂!!
awe thank you so much!
Is it weird that I usually use shazam to find the songs of your videos? Seriously, great songs!! Love from Portugal :D
Looks like a fabulous fall time in NYC....and the kitties are growing, so fast !💜💜
I have been in New York on vacation this week (5-12 October) from LA and I’ve loved it! I’m a Brit living and working in LA and New York has such home vibes. My Mexican boyfriend who was raised in California hasn’t quite enjoyed the weather as much as me, but he’s enjoyed himself and got plenty of key chains to add to his collection
Long time watcher, but this is my first comment! Love the cozy vibes, I'm def ready for fall
I’m here for the sourdough journey! I was one of the 3 people that didn’t try it during the pandemic and I wanna get into it this winter.
Aw, this is such a cozy vibe! The rooftop party looked fun. And the cats are adorable as ever! Please keep us posted on making your own nut milk. I'm curious!
