    Thank god you’re okay. Don’t let consumerism make you feel like you’re behind. Nature never changes. Fall is just starting and I don’t feel pressure to rush the holidays for the sake of social media.

    Elemental was a great movie. Also, never, never put your hand out to brace a fall. You can do so much damage to the small bones in the hand and wrist, as well as damage the elbow. Tuck and roll onto your back if possible and never tense up. I am a habitual faller due to my vision problems, I've learned ways to keep from getting hurt as bad.

      Thank you! I didn't know about the tuck and roll trick. Hoping I don't take another fall like that again, but it's definitely useful info. Glad you've found ways to keep yourself safe 😊

      @@kirsten-ashley I said a prayer for you. I take the bus a lot in Manhattan because the subways are just, well you already know. Maybe taking the bus would be a good idea. It is very normal to have anxiety for a long time after an accident. When I was in one it felt like I was in an out of body experience and I didn’t even get hurt just scared. Prayers and hugs. 💐

    I’m so glad you weren’t badly hurt! Getting into an accident is always nerve wracking. I’m so sorry it happened to you.
    All the fall food looks so good - especially the pumpkin seeds and the ravioli! I will have to look for them next time I go. I will probably put it off a bit longer because it is still very warm where I live, and it doesn’t feel like fall at all. I can’t wait until it is a bit cooler, so I can make chili!

    in our lease contracts in the uk we have a clause about wear and tear and that landlords can't charge you for it. I feel like the fridge would fall under that. Does this exist in the US too? If the glue doesn't hold, you can sometimes just order part on amazing; i did it for the hoover in my old flat where I broke the tube on the new hoover and just replaced it on the dl

    Oh Kirsten! 🥺 I hate to hear of your accident. 😣 I've grown so fond of you through your endearing and personable vlogs. 🫂 I am very thankful you weren't injured more than you were. Praise God for His angels surrounding and protecting you from grave harm. 🙌🏼👼🏽 His Hand is upon your life. 🤲🏼✝️ I've had scares myself and I definitely felt like crying in the moment, but grace always came over me to pull me through.....just like you! 😘 Btw, cottage cheese is so versatile, and a definite win for protein! 👍🏻 You already have grapes and granola. I eat cottage cheese (sprinkled with cinnamon), on grapes and topped with granola (in a cereal bowl) about twice a week for breakfast. 😋 Maybe once a month I'll combine 1c. whole wheat flour, 1 c. cottage cheese, 2 eggs, pumpkin spice, vanilla and 2 tsp. brown sugar. No liquid needed usually, but a couple tbsps of almond milk will thin the batter a little, if preferred. Use an immersion blender to get a relatively smooth consistency, but don't overbeat. Cook like you would regular pancakes, serves 2, but they freeze well or keep well a couple days, refrigerated and ready to warm up! They're a protein-packed weekend treat, so good for you. Pour a little palm date syrup on them and you're golden! 🥞🤤 Anywho, I loved every topic covered in this vlog, really interesting and engaging❣️🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
