from: cath ✉
to: you ✉
hello friends, i hope all's well! i've been trying my best to upload more consistently and have been pushing to try for one video a week, but it's proving to be pretty difficult! nonetheless, i will still do my best to produce cozy videos as often as i can :) this video was so cute and fun to film! there's lots of cozy new books involved, opening some new stationery, and of course some sister moments 💫 i hope you all enjoy watching!

[@barbara9315]

I’ve never seen a cat more connected to the earth and sun than yours 😂❤

[@cupsandthoughts]

hahah it’s funny how much they love the warmth and dirt 😂🤍

[@Kitkatbreak3]

I love everything about your style! Your Ecosusi bag, your accessories, your tweed pants! You inspire us all to live a beautiful, simple, book-filled life!

[@cupsandthoughts]

thank you sooo much!! 🥹 i love that look so much! it’s so comfy and cozy :’) i’m so happy to hear that 🥺🥺

[@angelakneller2880]

I love a good bookshop. My mum used to leave me in our local one ( sadly not there anymore) when she went to do shopping. This is where my love of buying books before I’ve even read the ones I have comes from x I have a whole mini library that I should get around to reading but there are so many books on my kindle to read first x

[@bstitcher7]

One year I bought alyssum as a filler for some empty space but had never grown it before. I absolutely loved it! I grow it every year now!! 💖 All of the books you showed are so pretty. They make me want them 😄

[@cupsandthoughts]

ooooh love to hear that!! i’ve had the seeds for a really long time so i’m excited to see how i go with them! 🥰 hahah i’m a sucker for pretty books! glad to be sharing them with people 😆🤍

[@DeSireeAlicea19]

I love your vlogs so much!! They’re so cozyyy and it’s a side of Australia I never see in other Aussie vlogs 🥰🥰 the bookish autumnal vibes are immaculate 🤌🏾 and I should probably use my ecosusi bags more 😭

[@cupsandthoughts]

thank you de’siree 🥹 hehe i try my best to share the cozy and beautiful parts of australia 🥰 ecosusi bags are so aesthetic i love them!

[@voyance4elle]

True ☺️ I agree. I don't know whether I know much Australian content but there was a reality tv show where home owners rented their homes for vacation and competed for a prize for the best location (I forgot the name of the show) and I always think of surfers and beaches ☺️

[@alefiyabattiwala4429]

I have two series of Rebecca Ross's on my tbr for the next few months and I absolutely can't wait. Super excited 😍💕

[@cupsandthoughts]

i’m thinking of picking up her other series too seeing as i’m loving divine rivals 😍 can’t wait for you to read them! 🥰

[@_.eva_]

dear sweet cath, it has been a while since uni started and this video was just what i needed to relax before the bloodbath begins(tests i meant '^^) the lovely bookstores looks so enchanting- wish i could just move across the ocean and give a visit but i have to wait for this one. and your plants look so healthy and i can feel your happiness- ohh you have convinced me to start my own garden and i will be planting strawberry and capsicum seeds soon. ❤ and OMG DIVINE RIVALS!!! it is a book that everyone NEEDS to read once in their life like im a LOVER for that book- there is a cliffhanger at the end but the next book comes in the end of the year! I am so excited for you to read this one!!🤎🤎 and i love your cats and tbh i fell into a reading slump right after uni started but all thankyou to you as now i am inspired and thrilled to read again!! i am starting with almond and norwegian wood!! thankyou for such a comforting vlog!! lots and lots of love your way❤️❤️ yours truly, eva

[@cupsandthoughts]

dear sweet eva, that is right! i hope uni is going well for you 🤍 i’m glad you have some time to rest and rejuvenate before starting your tests ☺️ these bookstores really are a gem, i love getting lost in them :’) haha my excitement for gardening knows no bounds! it’s so cool to see little seeds growing into its full form and eventually being harvested!! so excited for your capsicum and strawberry seeds 😍 i hope you get bright colors in your garden with them! i’ve only heard such amazing things about divine rivals!! everyone in my book club has been loooving it, and it’s so nice to see 🥰 yess i’m so glad the second book is out in december!! would be a nice christmas gift to get for myself 😂☺️ i’m happy you feel comforted by this video 🤍 is it getting colder where you live? almond sounds like an amazing novel, and norweigan wood i hear is just a classic. i hope you enjoy them both! sending love your way :) yours truly, cath

[@catfish9539]

[@mariaherediaperez1597]

Hi Cath! I'm so happy to have a new video from you😊 is so nice to see what you've been up to lately. I was so surprised when I saw Wildwood in the little miniature of the video because I bought a copy so many years ago and never ended up reading it. I never heard anyone recommend it before and there were so many hyped books out there that I never prioritized it... But the cover and the art is so beautiful that I have it on display in my shelves! I would love to know your thoughts about it if whenever you read it! And if you end up liking it I may get the motivation to finally read it myself 🙈 I hope everything is going smoothly in your work and that you keep enjoying your little cozy hobbies and the company of your sisters. I'm an only child so I really wish I had a sister that cooked me such delicious treats... They look really yummy hehe. Sending a big hug your way🤗, María

[@cupsandthoughts]

hello lovely maría! i’m always so happy to see your comment pop up 🥹🤍 hehe yes! i’ve known about it for years but don’t know why i never thought about picking it up! my sister and i are huge coraline fans, so hearing that it’s being brought to life by the same production (laika), we both decided to grab a copy of our own to read :) she found her copy secondhand and i did too (a few months later)! love second chance discoveries like these :’) i will definitely share my thoughts when i get around to reading it!! 🥰 thank you for the well wishes, maría! i hope you’re doing okay :) i’m definitely very grateful for my sisters (and even more so that one of them loves baking hehe ☁️🥐). sending an even bigger hug your way!!

[@mariaherediaperez1597]

I didn't know it was going to be animated by the same production as Coraline! How exciting!!🤭 Here were I live is really difficult to find books secondhand. What a beautiful coincidence that you and your sister found two copies! Now you two can buddy read it together 😊

[@cupsandthoughts]

@@mariaherediaperez1597 yess!! i’m so excited hehe 🥰 i can totally imagine their artstyle going with the story! haha yes exactly :’) feels like it’s meant to be!

Don’t pull out the lettuce, cut it very short and it’ll grow again.

[@cupsandthoughts]

thanks for the tip!! i intended on pulling them out as i wanted to plant my summer seedlings 🥰 i’ll definitely keep a bed of lettuces next autumn/winter so i can cut them short and wait for them to grow back 🤍

[@littleblackinkdrop31]

I was not even 1 minute in the video, again 2 commercials while I already had them at the beginning too! 😖 This is too exaggerated... It ruins all the calmness of the vlog...

[@mariaherediaperez1597]

Oh, really? There were no ads during the video for me…

[@cupsandthoughts]

i’m so sorry to hear that, some of my non-monetised videos have multiple ads and it’s out of my control :( i’m trying my best to find a good balance between monetising & demonetising my videos so you can have the best experience watching them. unfortunately we cannot have completely ad-free videos unless we pay for youtube premium, which i know isn’t ideal but that’s how youtube allows people to watch videos for free! i totally understand your frustration because i can feel the same way watching other cozy vlogs. i’ll try to find another solution to this, i appreciate your feedback! ☺️

[@jessicalauren4033]

Iv just found your KZbin and I’m now following you on Insta. I love your vibe so much.

[@cupsandthoughts]
