@@nastya_in_siberia I wish I could I am hardly working and down to my last bit of money which is less than 10. Or I would. I watch you Everytime you come on..
I don't know if you like to try it, but I put a thin layer of Vaseline on my nose/cheeks/lips before I go outside when it snows or is windy. It gives protection and won't look shiny when it goes into the pores. Marilyn Monroe used to put Vaseline on her face to keep it very moisturized. It's cheap and works for me.
Nastya, it is clear you are healing. this makes me so happy. My mum, also russian, also started her life over as a single mum with two little kids about the same ages as yours. She is so happy and so free now. It take time, but the seeds your planting now will blossom into the biggest garden you cant even imagine xxx
@@micaltoy824 She has said, in the one video I've seen so far as I just discovered her yesterday, that she does TH-cam full time these days. I haven't watched this video yet.
I remember slowly adding the tools to my kitchen as I could. Your brownies looked very good . I don't think you give yourself enough credit for your cooking skills. Great video.
Hi. I live in Atlanta Georgia in the United States and I came across your channel. I’m so inspired by you starting over back in Russia. I just want to say keep striving. You are doing a great job with your sons and yourself. Looking forward to more videos. Blessings from America 🇺🇸
Nastya, your voice is so very soothing and calm gives me such peace in this crazy world we live in now..I live in Wisconsin, USA....I enjoy hearing about 😊your life and wish you bliss and God's love in your journey. 💕
I suffer from anxiety, and your videos have a beautiful calming influence for me 💖💖💖 thank you for posting …I enjoy them very much …from Illinois, USA 💖💖💖🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💖💖💖
I just found your channel about a month ago. You should be proud of your home. You took such a disaster that most people would not even look at and made it into a home for you and your boys. You are such a good mother. Be proud and I hope with this channel you can buy what you need for your family.
Your brownies looks a good consistency, be aware that sometimes we buy self raising flour, and sometimes plain flour which doesn't have baking soda or a raising agent. I am not sure how flour is sold in Siberia but that is something to check when using recipes from overseas. I asked one of my daughters about baking and according to her if you work the dough too much the gluten strengthens and makes cookies and scones chewy rather than crumbly. My mum who was 97 when she passed away last year adhered to this when making her scones (without knowing the technical reason) and they were light and fluffy. There are sites where they will give you measure equivalents. I have one on the back of a cupboard for reminding me what gas numbers mean in terms of temperature. Your diet is doing wonders for you, as you're looking so much better. A peeler would be a good addition to your kitchen, much safer. Do you read much? Who are your favourite authors? You are obviously very clever so which subjects interest you? By the way I was envious of your younger kids blow up sleigh....no more dragging a heavy wooden sledge up a hill. Still got a month but merry Christmas when it does come.
I love watching your videos. I’m always interested in others and their daily routines in different parts of the world, Your food looks simple and delicious, and looks great on the plate, the walks are relaxing and scenic, and your little boy is cute. ❤❤❤ Looking forward to the next video, Thank you. 🇷🇺❤
Great video. I always look forward to your videos. I can tell that you are a good woman and have a kind heart and you’re a great mother too. May God Bless you and your family always. Best regards from America
I love the redesign of your apt. You and your boys seem to have a great new start. I enjoy seeing how you spend your day. Keep on trying the baking. Practice makes perfect.
Qué bonitos son los parques nevados y los colores de inviernos,aunque....para una latina como yo,sería francamente duro adaptarme a esas temperaturas gélidas,brrrr! Creo que moriría de hipotermia el primer día🥶 Me gustó mucho ver tu carita de ilusión al desempaquetar las cositas de casa: parecías una niña abriendo los regalos de Navidad,je,je! Seguro que los vais a usar y disfrutar mucho...¡es genial empezar a proveerse de todo lo necesario para tu nuevo y propio hogar! Es como empezar a "vestir" poco a poco una nueva vida😊
I grew up somewhere rather northward in Canada, not as far north as you, but still fairly northern, and whenever I see videos of northern Russia/Siberia, it reminds me so much of where I grew up. Similar trees, plants, landscape, lighting in the winter, food available in the grocery stores. Even many of the building styles look similar. I just find it interesting how people can live on the other side of the globe from one another, but if you are generally on the same longitude, things can look quite familiar.
Himalayan salt is a scam. There is no salt mine in the Himalayas. The salt comes from Khevra, a huge salt mine in Pakistan that was developed by the British in the 19th century. Himalayan salt is just ordinary, completely overpriced rock salt.
You idiot, salt when extracted in form of giant rocks, has a pink colour ( sometimes light pink with purple tinge). Majority of mines are located at the foothills which are an extension of Himalayas since Pakistan has occupied a 1/4th of Kashmir hence those are called Himalaya salt. Regular salt is manufactured from naturally occurring salt lakes. Some countries also manufacture salt from sea water.
If your kids like your brownies then all is well! I agree with lisad8388 that says you need a scale and do exact measurements. Baking is unforgiving. Get a smaller pan to cook the brownies. The big pan overcooked your brownies. Now, there is a chemical reaction going on with baking. You have to have 2 bowls. Combine the dry ingredients in one and combine the "wet" ingredients in another. Then you combine together. It creates a reaction that will help your brownies or even cakes rise correctly. Now with icing. It does matter between powdered sugar and regular sugar. If you don't have enough powdered sugar then just don't make as much and ONLY use the powdered sugar. A good and simple icing is just one cup of the powdered sugar, maybe a tablespoon of milk or even water and some vanilla and stir. If you want to make a butter cream frosting do NOT ever melt your butter. Use room temp butter and put in a bowl then add the sugar and beat it. Add vanilla and you're good to spread. I hope this helps!
Love your videos; I know you put a lot of time and effort to make them so good. I am happy to be one of your subscribers; looking forward to watching your channel grow. 👍👍
I love your videos so much. They give me peace. And I love the way you try new things very often. Don't worry about your baking skills, I'm sure that brownie was delicious.
Love your video! I have learned when baking you definitely need measuring spoons and cups and a kitchen scale and proper baking ware for better results.
I'm 62 and i can say, having the right tools for cooking and baking can make all the difference. Buy a scale. They're not expensive at all. Buy measuring cups (dry and liquid), and measuring spoons. A big glass or Pyrex mixing bowl should last years. One thing to remember, when BAKING, accurate measurements/weights are a must. Good luck, I watch your channel every week. 😊💖
I kept yelling at the screen when I saw her using a regular spoon for measuring tablespoons! Lol P.S. brownies aren’t supposed to raise much and brownies are normally WAY too sweet. If it’s not sweet enough then it’s not a brownie, probably just cake
All of these above. Baking is scientific so accuracy is important when first starting out. With experience you learn how to change some things so it works but to start with, it pays to be accurate. A digital scale is a must. Also, if you invest in a really good peeler, you will save in the long run as you will not discard so much and will last forever. P.s. glad you have a new knife. 😊
No measuring cups needed with the metric system.Just a scale and every bowl, cup... will work. European scales are able to measure gram and (milli)liter and have a tare button.
❤ This type of video shows how similar we all are in our daily lives. Seeing your stores and food broke my concept of Siberia. I wish the world could live in Peace.
Southerner from the United States here 🫶🏻 I enjoyed your vlog! Russia looks so beautiful, like a winter wonderland! We have the same kitchen utensils/holder, such a small world. I struggle with baking as well, but when measuring tablespoons & teaspoons you can fill the spoon with your ingredients; I would swap out powdered sugar for granulated sugar or sugar crystals, that’s what we use - and like a true southerner, lol, when in doubt, more butter, haha! Your first brownie attempt looks way better than mine did, bravo!
Nice scarf beautiful colors. Saw you wearing it,turned out to be good for wrapping like you said. I found the warmest ,I like best for wrapping, crocheted and long. But we only go at most 15degree f below wind chill. Parkas for everyone
You have a lovely calm voice. New subscriber and I am really enjoying your content. I am also a single mother of two from Melbourne, Australia. I suffer from anxiety too. Wishing you all the very best on your healing journey.
It’s shocking how Russia looks so much like Romania and viceversa. Whenever I watch your videos it feels like they’ve been filmed right here in my town 😻
Really nice Video, dear Nastya. Thank you. I love the beautiful nature pictures like the red sky in cold mornings. Take care - best regards from Berlin ❤.
I really like the peaceful home scenes of your channel, so nice and relaxing. When you bake, you have to measure really accurately and level off each measure. It’s not accurate enough to just dip in a regular spoon or eyeball the butter. For dry and liquid ingredients, I use measuring cups and measuring spoons, but I know some people prefer to use a scale instead. Where I live, the butter package comes with markings printed on it to show you where to cut it.
I was born in this beautiful city and lived in an orphanage for a year and a half before moving to the US. So comforting to see this vlog 🫶🏻🙏🏼 I hope it make it back here one day.
I think of cooking as an art and baking as a science. In cooking, you can be creative with ingredients and quantities to suit your tastes. In baking, you have to be exact with ingredients and quantities because it consists of chemical interactions to achieve the desired result.
Baking is very hard. There is great advice here in comments. Im always impressed by how good you English is. Im amazed at how well you folks survive in that bitter cold. It gets really cold here, too, but we dont go out. Sending love
Nastya, do you have a community or friends to go out with? I think it's important not to isolate yourself too much! Having a community can really elevate your life so much!
I love everything about this vlog , i love how calm you are and how you take time to show the little details , i really appreciate it , i enjoyed watching it while sipping my morning coffee ☕🤍 , i hope you uploaded more vlogs like this 💫 . . By the way, if you like your brownies a little moist you should check out "chewy brownie" recipes instead of cakey ones 🌸.
Nastya, your voice is so relaxing and calm. I like your videos very much. Here, in Athens-Greece the snow fall is very rare, so I really enjoy seeing so much snow. Also the goods, you are buying, look nice and at a good price. I am anxious for your next video.
Always so relaxing to watch your channel. Your brownies look great and Im aure they are delicious. Your boys love them so thats what matters. You feed your boys very freah and healthy meals. I envy being able to walk to a market with beautiful produce and a grocery store each day. Taking a bus to the mall I suppose. Your grocery prices are cheaper than the U.S. I dont eat meat so cant speak to that. I love your new kitchen items, its fun and you look so happy getting them. Lovely scarf and gloves. Youre a gorgeous uoung woman and a wonderful Mom. 💙💙
Hello and nice to see everyone again. I have a suggestion for your dry skin. When we were young my Nana used to rub extra virgin olive oil at night lightly on our hands and face for my sister's and I had very dry cracked skin in the winter. She did this three times a week and it helped so much. I still do it today and people always cannot believe how old I am for it helped my skin stay smooth and subtle. I really believe it has to do with the oil itself. I also use a plain lotion called Jerkins original lotion, it's inexpensive and has never caused issues with my very dry skin. Of course in the morning we washed our face in a oatmeal soap which also helps and I still do this every day. Wishing you all good health and a lovely weekend, take care. 🌻
Great vlog Nastya. In Devon region of UK no snow yet, It is lovely to see the snow on the trees at Festive time of year, Good for you in treating yourself to new gloves and scarf. \i also liked the small clip of outdoor ice hockey. Again something we dont have or see in UK. Can tell you were pleased tp buy your kitchen cooking utensils and using them already. Look forward to more vlogs. Take care Graham.
I believe your problem when you bake is Measurements, you need to buy Set of spoons Marked with the correct Size of each And also cups Marked in Sizes
หลายเดือนก่อน +2
I disagree, it’s about portions and percentages. I only ever used what was in my kitchen and just kept it consistent. A coffee mug was a “cup” half a coffee mug was a “ 1/2 cup”
You look so happy, Nastya! And I'm happy for you. It's good to see you snug in your home with your boys. Forgive me, I need to help. With baking, the *most* important thing is measuring exactly. Buy these: Liquid measuring cup (milk, etc). Dry measuring cups (ex: flour). Measuring spoons. Weight scale, doesn't have to be fancy. If you measure everything correctly (including your pans) your baking will improve 100%.
All very tasty, I just cannot get over the prices of food, we pay almost 5 to six times more. It is yeast, even dried, for making bread to rise. Your children will just love their Mum. Whew! Your scarf. is just what the Doctor ordered, soft on the skin. I have a long one given by a friend, the wools come from Texas, huge range of colors. Thanks for presenting, life, as it is, in Novosibirsk. You are special Nastya...........
I never knew that there are so many things to buy in Siberia, fruits, nuts, salads... everything is there! I live in Germany and mostly all is expensive now!
First, you're certainly an excellent cook! You and your family eat very well, and I love that you avoid processed foods! Well done! Regarding the frosting, while you're learning, avoid substitutions and follow the directions precisely -- I was yelling at my computer when I saw you substituted regular sugar for powdered sugar! LOL. Also, try adding the dry ingredients into the melted butter very, very slowly, a small amount at a time, and mix thoroughly as you add them. That might help the texture. But as long as your child wants brownies every day, I'd say it was a success! Love the videos! Keep them coming!
Tu vlog es unico todo lo haces de forma tranquila,relajada,con una voz suave despacio que al escucharlo genera paz y tranquilidad al receptor de tu audiencia!!! Te deseo lo mejor que dios te guíe y cumplas tus nuevas metas de viajar por toda rusia en auto !!!
Wonderful video!!!!! Brownies are supposed to be a little 'flat' (not high like a cake) so you did just fine! The more you bake, the more you'll feel comfortable about it. Everything you made looked delicious. Thanks for sharing (one of my own sons is now interested in your videos). Cheers from Toronto Canada.
@@Krysb107 it's not about the eggs not being healthy, but there is a lack of variety.. tho we know she has some allergies so that might be the reason why.
Love your videos and im throughly looking enjoying watching them. I’ve always been so intrigued by Russia and would love to visit what looks like an amazing country. I especially love your snowy winter vlogs. Can’t wait for the next one and congratulations again on your beautiful home.❤
Salaries in Russia are very low so groceries are actually quite expensive there. That's why the main vegetables eaten are potatoes/carrots, and nothing green and leafy (very expensive).
Those sunsets remind me of when I was there, in Novosibirsk. I also saw sunsets like that in winter. I miss it. Greetings from Argentina. Вы живете рядом с Парком Славы.
Greetings from Novosibirsk! I like how you serve food seasoning it or adding some vegetables, something like that. This makes the dish look colourful and tempting and... makes my mouth watering😄 Thx for vibrant videos, Nastya! 🍒

Your grocery prices are cheaper than the U.S. I dont eat meat so cant speak to that. I love your new kitchen items, its fun and you look so happy getting them. Lovely scarf and gloves. Youre a gorgeous uoung woman and a wonderful Mom. 💙💙
Your new apartment looks lovely!!
Hello and nice to see everyone again. I have a suggestion for your dry skin. When we were young my Nana used to rub extra virgin olive oil at night lightly on our hands and face for my sister's and I had very dry cracked skin in the winter. She did this three times a week and it helped so much. I still do it today and people always cannot believe how old I am for it helped my skin stay smooth and subtle. I really believe it has to do with the oil itself. I also use a plain lotion called Jerkins original lotion, it's inexpensive and has never caused issues with my very dry skin. Of course in the morning we washed our face in a oatmeal soap which also helps and I still do this every day. Wishing you all good health and a lovely weekend, take care. 🌻
* Jergen’s lotion. only thing my auntie used and her face was lovely
Yes to the Olive oil on your skin
The brownies look amazing! And I love your new scarf and gloves!
Great vlog Nastya. In Devon region of UK no snow yet, It is lovely to see the snow on the trees at Festive time of year, Good for you in treating yourself to new gloves and scarf. \i also liked the small clip of outdoor ice hockey. Again something we dont have or see in UK. Can tell you were pleased tp buy your kitchen cooking utensils and using them already. Look forward to more vlogs. Take care Graham.
I believe your problem when you bake is Measurements, you need to buy Set of spoons Marked with the correct Size of each And also cups Marked in Sizes
I disagree, it’s about portions and percentages. I only ever used what was in my kitchen and just kept it consistent. A coffee mug was a “cup” half a coffee mug was a “ 1/2 cup”
You look so happy, Nastya! And I'm happy for you. It's good to see you snug in your home with your boys.
Forgive me, I need to help. With baking, the *most* important thing is measuring exactly. Buy these: Liquid measuring cup (milk, etc). Dry measuring cups (ex: flour). Measuring spoons. Weight scale, doesn't have to be fancy. If you measure everything correctly (including your pans) your baking will improve 100%.
All very tasty, I just cannot get over the prices of food, we pay almost 5 to six times more. It is yeast, even dried, for making bread to rise. Your children will just love their Mum. Whew! Your scarf. is just what the Doctor ordered, soft on the skin. I have a long one given by a friend, the wools come from Texas, huge range of colors. Thanks for presenting, life, as it is, in Novosibirsk. You are special Nastya...........
I have heard that Russian mothers are excellent caretakers. You’re a good mother with your son you go above and beyond.❤
The gloves look so cozy. I always used Himalayan Pink salt. Love the texture and the taste.
I never knew that there are so many things to buy in Siberia, fruits, nuts, salads... everything is there! I live in Germany and mostly all is expensive now!
any city in russia has same products.. the price can be different
and Novosibrsk is a big city (the 3d by population in Russia).. but a young city that's why it doesn't have nice architecture

First, you're certainly an excellent cook! You and your family eat very well, and I love that you avoid processed foods! Well done! Regarding the frosting, while you're learning, avoid substitutions and follow the directions precisely -- I was yelling at my computer when I saw you substituted regular sugar for powdered sugar! LOL. Also, try adding the dry ingredients into the melted butter very, very slowly, a small amount at a time, and mix thoroughly as you add them. That might help the texture. But as long as your child wants brownies every day, I'd say it was a success! Love the videos! Keep them coming!
Tu vlog es unico todo lo haces de forma tranquila,relajada,con una voz suave despacio que al escucharlo genera paz y tranquilidad al receptor de tu audiencia!!! Te deseo lo mejor que dios te guíe y cumplas tus nuevas metas de viajar por toda rusia en auto !!!
Wonderful video!!!!! Brownies are supposed to be a little 'flat' (not high like a cake) so you did just fine! The more you bake, the more you'll feel comfortable about it. Everything you made looked delicious. Thanks for sharing (one of my own sons is now interested in your videos). Cheers from Toronto Canada.
There is no doubt you eat properly...well balanced diet for you and your boys!
She eats 4 eggs with each meal , not healthy
@@MaryBeth1965Eggs are perfectly healthy. Saying they aren’t is outdated nonsense
@@Krysb107 eggs, in moderation, are healthy. Not 4 eggs at each and every meal!
@@Krysb107 it's not about the eggs not being healthy, but there is a lack of variety.. tho we know she has some allergies so that might be the reason why.
only the sausages are the problem... they re too many
Love your videos and im throughly looking enjoying watching them. I’ve always been so intrigued by Russia and would love to visit what looks like an amazing country. I especially love your snowy winter vlogs. Can’t wait for the next one and congratulations again on your beautiful home.❤
Welcome to Russia one day!
You have an excellent camera! I feel like I am right there with you. I live in a very warm climate and rarely get to enjoy snow.
Yay, she’s back 👏 I’ve been waiting 🎉❤
Wow, groceries are MUCH more expensive here in the USA 😭 May God bless you and your family ❤️
Salaries in Russia are very low so groceries are actually quite expensive there. That's why the main vegetables eaten are potatoes/carrots, and nothing green and leafy (very expensive).
@@dotxful cucumbers are green and not too expensive. For example, I eat salad with a cucumber and an egg every evening around the year.
@@RusGirlVlogThat sound like a good combination! Hard boiled eggs?
@@hannaR_ yeah
Dear, since I meet you everywhere, I'll be glad to see your comments below my vid as well 😉
@@RusGirlVlogI saw a few of your videos, I haven't commented anything yet, but I gave a couple of likes already👍😊...
Those sunsets remind me of when I was there, in Novosibirsk. I also saw sunsets like that in winter. I miss it. Greetings from Argentina. Вы живете рядом с Парком Славы.
Greetings from Novosibirsk! I like how you serve food seasoning it or adding some vegetables, something like that. This makes the dish look colourful and tempting and... makes my mouth watering😄 Thx for vibrant videos, Nastya! 🍒
Lots of Love from Sweden 🇸🇪
That cake looks so delicious. It doesn't matter if it isn't fluffy as long as it's tasty
Thank you for your videos 🎉❤😊please do more. GOD BLESS 🙌 🙏
The utensil with the two holes in the middle is for picking up pasta
Everything you cooked looked absolutely delicious.
