    The fact that as a single woman you've created this beautiful, cozy, no-build, (for the most part), van home for you and Ruby is so inspiring! Be safe

    I have noticed that the longer you've had your channel the happier you have become. Not doing door dash has made a difference too, as now I think you can plan for the future because your channel has grown. Having Ruby has helped as well. We all love your channel and your easy breezy style of living.

    I love, love, LOVE your van interior. I have a suggestion that you may take or leave, as you wish. I suggest placing a square of silicone mesh Rubbermaid shelf liner under your water cooler. It really will provide good security for the water cooler. The glass won’t slide on the wooden shelf plus it will quiet down any rattling. I enjoy your videos and creativity so much!

    Very nice. I had this dream of buying a few acres of land & putting several sheds on it, adding one at a time. Making each one a room. Living, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, etc. Then, making a pathway from shed to shed or room to room. Creating a breezeway between each one & designing a garden around it. Just a visionary dream. I can imagine something like that overlooking scenic mountains or foothills.

    When you get land? Buy you a camper. I've had it all. My camper is the greatest thing I ever bought. Ivr had the Lamborghini of sheds(had a loft, windows, porch, huge) I lived in a van shortly, brick house, double wide, single wide...etc. my favorite of all my 54 years? Is my 2006 Fleetwood Prowler I bought for $8,200. Not a scratch on, it; babies, barely used, still new. I'm in my yard now, inside it, watching you. Not my house. My cozy crochet camper. Love you. Love Rubes. If you're ever in VA? Park free here, anytime ❤ PS: I'm about 2 hours away from Boone NC. And I boarder the national Forest. Ridge top behind a locked gate. Way up off road. Rubes would love it. VA needs you 😂😂😂

      I once ordered iced latte and asked the person who took my order to “keep it easy on the ice”… I was seved coffee with no ice and I know it was done with malice. I called the district manager and reported that starbucks location. I wa given a free drink when I went back there after a couple of months. I did not want a free drink, I just want to be respected as a customer. I was a very simple request and if I neede to pay extra for the drink I should have been told. And everytime I see that barista, I ask to be served by someone elase.

    The other night, I made potato leek soup. It was so good. Slice two leeks, white parts only, sauté in butter, I use a lot of butter, Kerigold Irish Butter. Cut four potatoes in small chunks. Add potatoes, pour vegetable broth to barely cover potatoes. When almost done, add a little heavy cream. I don’t put mine in a blender, I just sort of mash it a few times and it’s ready to go. Add whatever spices you want. It turned out so good!

    Soup looks good, that's basically how I make my lentil soup. Only other things I add is about 1/2 tbsp of chili garlic sauce (Chinese condiment), that's if you like a little added spice and I add a chopped sweet potato or regular potato if I don't have one. To me the chili garlic sauce adds another layer to the soup. Anyway, enjoyed the video!

      Just hang an oven mitt over the spoons in the middle so the skillet, etc. won't make noise when you are driving

      Or something soft and fluffy behind the cast iron, so you don't hear it as much. Love your day in a life video plus Ruby's play video.💕

    Question for an upcoming Live Q and A. If you’ve already answered then my apologies, I’m kind of new to the channel!
    How do you keep Miss Ruby cool during the summer when you have to leave her to shop, etc. I’m asking because I’m from Kentucky and leaving an animal in a car is dangerous. I’m assuming that the weather in the Pacific Northwest is a little more hospitable compared to where I live. I was just curious as to how you handle the summer heat.
    Loving your channel! Watching you and Ruby is so relaxing and a wonderful distraction from my chaotic life. Can’t wait to see more of your adventures!

      I sleep on a pair of Cool Bed III to keep myself cool in bed. After 4 hours I exchange them by sliding them. No leaks yet. Silly dogs avoid them!

    They make extra strong Velcro that you can adhere your cast-iron pots and pans too, and they won’t budge

    Hey Rowen! Maybe put a square cut out of that rubber grip stuff you use & place ir under the water jar🤔

    TFS. If you want lentils to soften and cook faster clean (they often have grit in them like rice wheat can) then wash gently, rinse and soak in water overnight. Only add enough water to cover the lentils. Also if you saute your spices prior to adding the onions garlic etc the flavor released from spices will be more potent.
    You have a beautiful set up I would just add perhaps a rubber backing to that area where your pan hangs or place a pretty towel on that shelf.
    God bless Ruby and you and your family. I have a friend who bought one of those sheds and its her home office.

    The tea is weak because there’s more ice in it than tea! Often when I get an ice coffee at Tim Hortons, I always ask for minimal ice!! I hate paying force!!! Enjoy! Or hope you did:)

    If you ever get a Tuff Shed, go directly to them and bypass H.D. You'll get it in a couple weeks vs three months. That's what we did! You can configure the inside & windows however you want also.
