[@miadearman7169]

Don’t worry Sam , it came at the perfect time for me ! I live in Australia and it uploaded right when I woke up ! Perfect timing ❤

[@AshlynYaDig]

You can upload at any time, I love it 😂♥️

[@alexiablanton9085]

“ what do you wash fruit with? Hand soap?” NO *puts hand soap on fruit” Oh GOD Love you Sammy 🤦🏻‍♀️😂❤️‍🔥

[@kalenic6145]

Lmao!! I thought the same thing .. like noooooo don’t do that haha 😂

[@kaylawestbrook1584]

Yesss🤣🤣 had me dying!!!

[@ellagoldsmith9059]

just soak them in water with a lil vinegar 😂

[@jennthibault4883]

I had my ear buds in and apparently loudly said Noooo, don't put soap on them! Lol. My family just looked at me like wtf!?!?

[@caitymarg]

Me too omg haha😂

[@christiecalderwood1334]

Honestly watching Sam's vlogmas is my favourite time of the day can't believe this is 4th year of watching her vlogmas

[@synthiasolis2758]

When you said “I don’t have that many people” gahhh that hit home!! It’s okay Sam you have all of us💕

[@debbieeeyo]

“We can have our bad days together.” Needed that. Love you so much 😭❤

[@smercado98]

Sam, we love you. Thank you for giving us the gift of vlogmas even on the days you don't feel so good. If only you could see, how much of an impact you make on everyone around you

[@KaegansMamma04]

She definitely does. She’s so hard on herself sometimes but she’s just perfect the way she is ❤️

[@dhemsey]

Sam. Just finished vlogmas day 6 and I'm crying my eyes out for you, & me, & all the people struggling with depression and all mental health issues. Thank you for showing the world that it is okay to have worse days than others. After all, we are humans!

[@Elisabeth1710]

Sam did the standing back looking at all the present look, like a mom who finally finished wrapping presents 😂😂

[@sweettreatsyt]

Tip! Put the fruit in a cold bowl of water to soak with a bit of white wine vinegar! (1:4 ratio) It removes bacteria (& no your fruit doesn't taste like vinegar after as long as you don't put to much in!)

[@joninabjorkk]

Washing the strawberries with hand soap is such a mood

[@charlottepatty4004]

Ive been through 3 vlogmas years with u.. i am literally obsessed with you and you have no idea how much comfort you bring me. Thank u so much for being here sam

[@gwynethikerman]

I swear, it is NOT feeling like Christmas like Christmas should be feeling. This vlogmas is the major source of festivity in my life rn! 🎄🫶🏻⚡️🎅🏻😚💗🤍❣️🤣

[@JessicaPerry137]

Sam, the amount of time and thoughtfulness you dedicate to helping others feel loved and appreciated is such a testament to what an incredible human you are. You continue to help all of us traipse through this journey we call life. Seriously we are all just a bunch of kids without our jackets and I know I’m not alone in saying thanks from the bottom of my heart for showing up and gracing us with your adorably therapeutic presence even when it’s hard. Love ya girl, keep on keeping on! ❤️❤️❤️

[@stephaniefrost4910]

8:40 Googled it for ya, Sam! “Gently rub produce while holding under plain running water. There's no need to use soap or a produce wash. Use a clean vegetable brush to scrub firm produce, such as melons and cucumbers. Dry produce with a clean cloth or paper towel to further reduce bacteria that may be present.”

[@rebeccahunter7848]

Today was a rough day, I couldn't get out of the sadness. These videos help to bring some joy into my life.

[@abigailsteeves9792]

Omg I cannot with that grinch bit 😂 vlogmas have to be the best part of the whole year. These vlogs are the only thing that make me have Christmas spirit. Usually I feel sad and lonely at the holidays so I love getting to hang out everyday.

[@audryklein]

Sam, you are making my December so much better. I lost my best friend 6 months ago in a car crash, so it’s been a tough one to say the least. Thank you for sharing your christmassy days with us

[@Amanda3280h]

I’m so sorry, sending love ❤

[@calliecooper99]

So sorry for your loss sending prayers 🙏🏻

[@ElizaBee_5]

you’re such an amazing person Sam you’re so caring and sweet I lost it at your grinch jokes and I didn’t think you were awkward at all with the Dutch bros people! Thank you for sharing your life with us 💛 I’ve been in such a rut lately and your videos bring me so much joy 💛

[@olivias2813]

It’s been my tradition to watch Sam’s vlogmas while I make dinner 💖 tonight’s dinner was baked salmon and pasta with broccoli. Also, Sam, you’re so incredibly sweet for making Samantha and the pets feel special! I do the same thing with the few people in my life. Quality over quantity always.

[@aubrey3060]

Sam and Jennica and Annica are my fav youtubers ever!!!

[@chanf7848]

I just adore you. I'm 30 years older than you but I can't wait to watch your next video everyday. You provide so much humor and honesty. Thank you for making me feel like your friend because I think everyone should have a friend like you. You're amazing!❤

[@MicaLosada]

I cried the whole time watching My Mind and Me. I felt completely understood and seen. It's very important to talk about mental health and I want to thank u for showing us those parts of your day as well. I've been struggling a lot for a couple of months and you make me feel like I'm not alone. 💜💜

[@mackenziepittman243]

honestly Sam seems like the best friend and the kindness most thoughtful person I love watching this everyday 😭❤️

[@tarastorey9357]

2 things: 1… you’re vlogmas vlogs are my favorite and 2… legos are my go to when my mind is messy, the focus it requires is a blessing. Hope you feel yourself soon and I’m praying for you.

[@JD-ku1kn]

That beginning scene with the Grinch had me dying omggg your vlog are such a gift. Also you did a great job with the drive-thru workers. It's not easy to try and respond to random questions, honestly!

[@sweettreatsyt]

sam your vlogmas makes december so much brighter! thank you for doing it!❤🎄

[@Lost_Girl777]

Awe you're the bestest friend ever! So sweet of you to fill Samantha's stocking 💕 wish I had a friend like you. Love all your videos 😻

[@danielle91]

I dont like Christmas, I dont celebrate Christmas, but I refuse to miss Sam's annual vlogmas. I genuinely love Christmas for like 15 minutes a day thanks to her. 💚❤

[@comelybaek343]

I literally teared up when you started preparing the gift for Sam. The amount of love and thoughtfulness that come from you is immeasurable and I really truuuly aspire to be like you in this regard. How you treat other people is just amazing and they for sure are so happy to have you in their lives 💕

[@ainhoaaramburu6696]

Watching you stuff the stockings is literally the cutest thing ever, your friends are lucky to have you as a friend:)

[@IanTheSemenDemon]

I started watching this channel when I was 12. I now have a winning streak of almost 2 years without SH. This channel means so much more to me then words can ever show. You are the reason I’m still here today ♥️

[@vargasjess93]

As a mental health specialist, I love you being so open and vulnerable with your audience (that takes so much strength!). Theres good days and bad days tomorrow will be better ❤

[@jaysmithcool]

You're such a sweetheart for making a stocking for your friend. I always appreciate your honesty and willingness to be vulnerable about mental health.

[@jaclynelyse]

again i love the honesty and realness, this is one of my favorite if not my favorite vlogmas to watch because it’s just so real, honest & shows how life is whether it’s the holidays or not♥️ love you sam! thank you for being you!🥺🎄✨

[@marigracetidwell7813]

Sam you are so unbelievably sweet! You are such a genuinely kind and loving person to people you care about. Remember how worthy you are!!!

[@ladyicondraco]

Your shower singing was incredible!!!

[@LoisPP]

I love you Sam, you’re such a breath of fresh air with your honesty. I loved how you stood back to admire your work as Saint Nick. You’re a great friend ❤ Washing the fruit with hand soap had my shouting at my screen!

[@irenestrongrock4106]

You’re my all time favorite KZbinr. My comfort KZbinr. I too struggle with everything you described about mental health, and have really been feeling it lately too for some reason, so I wanted to tell you that you’re not alone 🧡. We love you here on this corner of the internet, Sam!

[@vicsv1232]

I recently found your KZbin shorts, 30 days without ordering fast food challenge for yourself, (To me, fast food and sugary sweets are the 5th and 6st food groups, I'm out of control, I know, so it was great finding someone who understood, and understands the things to do and being realistically positive, even during dark days.), which lead me to your KZbin channel, challenging yourself to new experiences. I just found "cozy christmas vlog...day 6", and even though, it's been posted a couple of months ago, I appreciated your sharing of part your life. It made me think, and even though my morning crying seems to be the only option of the day, your "vlogma helped me to see other possibilities for the day, You braved that day, and even when it's not Christmas. Thank you for giving a radiant feeling of hope.

[@edensenergy]

You being honest about how you feel is one reason I look forward to watching you! You are definitely not alone when it comes to mental health struggles as much as it feels lonely and we are the ones fighting our own individual battles, There are so many people including myself who can relate, and you putting that out there and being transparent about your struggles and learning to accept it and work with it is so powerful! You make me feel less alone, remind me to be more gentle on myself, and accepting of myself. Thank you for being you! Hope you feel better love! This video brought so much joy

[@jenniferpaulausky7975]

I know you said you don't have a lot of people... and when we're having bad/sad/emotional days we can feel like we have even less!! But try to remember you have all of us... I know it's not the same... but you have LOTS of people who care and know just how beautiful you are inside and out!! Merry Vlogmas Samantha Jo!! 🫂🥰🎄❤️

[@sophiasoleau]

Sam, I love how real you are with us. I struggle with OCD, anxiety, and depression and some days I just don’t want to get out of bed or see anyone. You make me want to get out of bed and motivate me, I hope you know how much you’ve changed my life and have changed others lives❤️❤️❤️❤️Don’t be hard on yourself! Love you Sam❤️💚🎄

[@butyoucancallmekayla]

3:23 is literally the epitome of why I'm subscribed 😭

[@olivialynn5704]

just like when a cloud gets too filled with water it rains, when your heart gets too filled with emotion you cry

[@btrixie60]

The last two days I woke up sad and heavy hearted. No reason. I just go with it. Today I was really happy and that's great! You make me happy too and you're a very good friend to your peoples.

[@almaalaska591]

Love that you share the honest downs too, your videos are a reminder to be kind to ourselves. I love it! ❤❤❤

[@oliviaperre123]

Life hack!! If you’re worried about people looking into your house, make sure the shades on your blinds are facing up. This saved me a couple times. Stay safe!! Love you Sam ❤️☺️

[@josiecalder]

I understand girly, I have major depression, ptsd, anxiety, insomnia and other mental illnesses that I won't mention and if I didn't take my meds then I could not function on a day to day basis ! Your feelings are valid , xo xo my depression symptoms are: lack of appetite, lack of motivation, loses interest in activities and I'll want to stay in bed all day , but knowing the signs helps to identify to get better again ! You're doing great 💗💗💗💗

[@jorrdan.]

the lofi rnb remix of christmas in my heart is sending me but at the same time i love it

[@Sony3272]

Random cooking tip! When you are done chopping anything and want to slide/scrap it off the cutting board make sure to flip the knife over and use the side of the knife that is not sharp, when you slide the blade on the cutting board it will dull the blade quicker.

[@taybae8620]

that interaction around 6:40 was not awkward at all!! you did way better than i would’ve done. if she asked me if i was aware that the grinch was in my car i would’ve been like “yeah haha” and that’s it

[@BrennaUselmann]

I’ve also struggled/struggle with mental health, anxiety and depression. The fact that you’re able to continue this channel and not give up is amazing! It really does feel isolating when no one around you understands so thank you for sharing. We love you, happy vlogmas!! ♥️🫶🏼🎅

[@TayisWriting]

Oh my gosh, I watch your Vlogmas every year, and all of your videos constantly, but for some reason the vibes and authenticity this vlogmas has been so relatable for me. You’re by far my favorite KZbinr, so I really think it’s just that I’m feeling the same feelings you’re describing. From the having unexplainable bad days to the funny moments alone. I just wanna say I love the energy in this video, and YOU WERE NOT awkward at Dutch Bros 😂😂 but I get like that every time too, so I understand. The moment with the Grinch was also so funny 😂 💕 I just wanted to say I appreciate all the effort you put into your videos, editing, and everything by you do for your subscribers by being your most authentic and lovable self🤍🤍 I also wish I lived in Nashville because I feel like you would be the bestest friend ever and as a young adult learning to live alone, I definitely need more of those!

[@jenlockett92]

That whole grinch scene deserves its own comment ❤

[@laurablanton703]

Thanks for being real, Sam! Even if tomorrow isn't a better day, you made my day better just by being part of it!!

[@jennifermacdonald4816]

Your friendship with Sam is so genuine and sweet. Keep being there for one another. It’s amazing to have friends like this. They are so rare!

[@paraladies]

You are suchhhh an amazing human being with such a kind heart!! Love you girl and anyone would be so blessed to have you in their life as a friend! ❤

[@paraladies]

I don’t have telegram

[@Carinacrochets]

Love you sam!! Thank you for being so real with us, it’s a weird time of year. I feel like our inner child gets so excited for the holidays but as adults it’s not always so easy. I hope whatever you’re battling gets a little easier ❤️

[@kaleena9575]

You are seriously THE most adorable girl ever 💝 I hope you wake up to endless sweet messages~ I really do like you both together as roommates 🧸 you really do deserve every good thing coming your way and much more. I hope you see this~

[@damarisaida]

I’m watching all your vlogmas blogs even after Christmas and you are the only KZbinr that truly makes me smile and laugh. You have such a gift to light up people’s lives with your presence. This truly is a rare thing, also you’re not awkward when you think you are! 🫶🏼

[@melissabeth5224]

Sam, you have such a kind soul. I hate to see when you're struggling mentally but just know you have a lot of friends here and we love you! ❤️ Also, now I need to make soup!

[@c.c.8145]

My depression has been bad today, so thank you for sharing. Watching you helps ❤️

[@DANNYTHEFROG123]

I've been doing the stockings for Santa since I was young. Every year I wait for Santa 🎅 but I am a good elf and come through

[@shelbyg7247]

After having such a rough mental health day today watching this helps me realize I’m not so alone Thank You for everything you do ❤

[@Mandamaialetti]

Love that you’re so open and passionate about mental health ❤ I’ve been more open with myself and giving myself grace and I find it it be so much less heavy on my brain during the already heavy brain times ❤

[@LS-oy3cz]

I love you, Sam!!! You setting up Samantha’s gifts and stocking warmed my heart so much. You’re such a kind and thoughtful friend who loves hard. We love you hard, too. Always remember that! ❤️

[@SugarShockCrochet]

I had a sad day today as well. No explanation just sad. Thank you for being so open!

[@maibai98]

This vlogs have been the highlight of my holiday season! I found Sam last year during November and I just remember binge watching all of her content because it felt so nice to hear someone so real and honest who deal with the same problems that I do. I appreciate you SAM AND LOVE YOU!!! ❤️🎄

[@Bookworm929]

I love Sam's vlogmas. She always finds a way to make me smile.❤️🎄

[@kayleer3]

I came across your channel for the first time today and i fell in love within the first 8 minutes of a video I watched. You are HILARIOUS and so relatable. My new comfort youtuber 💗

[@michelleggray]

That was so so sweet of you, Sam!! ❤ I grew up doing St. Nicholas Day on the 6th with my family, but we would each leave out a shoe and St. Nick would leave little presents and candy in them 🥰 Our tradition was that everyone got a tacky ornament that fit our interests that year, which has made our tree a bit weird (we have everything from Twilight to Star Wars to the Queen of England) but I wouldn’t change it! I’m in my 20s and live alone now, and I miss doing St. Nick! We still get ornaments, but not in the same way. Thanks for spreading some of that holiday magic!!! I also struggle with my mental health and I very very much appreciate showing the real along with the holly jolly-ness. 💞

[@katiewilson9969]

Love you Samantha, you keep my holiday spirit alive. Thank you for all that you do, I have been a little sad this year, I am trying to conceive but it's been difficult cause I have PCOS, and your videos help bring a little happiness to my life.

[@christy9564]

I literally just found you, watched a couple videos and this one made me subscribe. Your personality is awesome but I really appreciate your honesty about your mental health struggles. I too struggle with it. Thank you for being honest and genuine. Great video. ❤

[@LizzyCamarena]

Awwww you’re such a great cute friend 😭🥹💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚

[@samanthabarski7651]

I’m so glad I’m not the only one that gets “Thaw” and “Defrost” confused and instead say “Dethaw”

[@Jessica-dd6cz]

yknow to me you're the only person I watch after coming home. Even if i had a poopy day i still smile after watching your videos, thank you for being you.

[@nl3770]

Having a tough day today, and just got to say, when you felt awkward in the drive thru, that made me snort laugh! Made my night. Thank you.

[@sbark20]

Lmao you're my favorite person to watch on the internet 💚

[@lipstickstories2409]

Grinch showing the finger made me burst out laughing, ngl lol

[@amyverlinden853]

Dutch brothers will literally do any coffee of theirs in a Coco version 😊 I really look forward to your Vlog every day during Christmas 😊 I really appreciate the effort that you put in not only during this time but throughout the whole year. You are a genuine kind a funny person Samantha I have seen so much growth in you❤

[@gagaveah28]

I struggle with mental health problems as well and I know exactly how you feel. I have a lot of days when I don't know what's wrong but I can't help but cry and feel so helpless.

[@KW-up2ox]

Girl it’s all good. I hope vlogmas is helping you to stay occupied rather than making you feel like you have to perform. I just come to see what you’re up to, happy, sad, silly or otherwise. I struggle with depression too, especially in the winter, but that doesn’t mean I don’t crack a joke every now & then. It shows up differently for each of us & that’s totally fine. Hope tmrw feels better! And if not, just remember it won’t feel like this forever 💗✊🏾

[@destineenicole93]

Watching you put all that stuff up by the fireplace and fill the stocking gave me so much joy! I think I will start a new tradition for my daughter this year! I will put Christmas pajamas, chocolates, snacks, and a couple other Christmas themed items (and maybe decorations) out the night before December 1st! That way on December 1st everyone wakes up to Christmas stuff!

[@danipoutre9760]

i’ve been refreshing youtube ever hour 😭 my emotional connection to vlogmas is strong

[@kryan2931]

Literally, are you joking?! Can we talk about the amazing thoughtfulness and personal touch that you put into the stocking gift?! Even on your hard days you are such sunshine for other people. And what a beautiful ray of sunshine you are 💕 ☀️ You got this Sam 🐶

[@jenniferboyette9465]

I havta admit I was having a rough mental health day today, watching your video helped me get out of my funk. We all love you Sam.

[@lapetiteyara]

You are such a good friend. And it is not about gifts. It’s about feelings you r putting into it, making someone u love happy. God Bless ur heart and let it heal ❤

[@ShastaAnn]

Sam, salt goes in the shaker that has either smaller or fewer holes, and pepper goes in the other one.

[@heythereitsalyssa3329]

I just finished the video, and I just absolutely adore you and your energy. I’m so sorry you’re hurting and you’re struggling with your mental health right now. I am too, it’s not easy especially in the world we live in. Everything can feel so secluded sometimes. I wait for your videos every. Single. Day. They help me get thru a lot right now and thank you so much for that ❤ Love you lots Sam!

[@d.a.g.2914]

I feel like having those random sad days is very normal for me, before I would get mad at myself for being sad, but then I remembered that it was okay to feel that way bc it wasn’t forever and also bc life is hard man. But anyways thanks the Lordy Lord that my mental health has gotten better 💓 I love Your videos 🥹

[@oliviaflatter127]

i swear every day i start to die laughing at some point bc she is so funny without trying and she puts a smile on my face every day. i love you sam ❤

[@saraho7283]

sam babe- don’t be so hard on yourself. your videos and energy bring so much joy to all of us. it’s okay to have a “lazy” day. you’re doing GREAT. love you girl. thank u for posting 🤍

[@monicac1411]

Awe I love your St. Nicholas tradition! And when you say you don’t have many people in your life it hit me too. You are a sweet genuine person and if you ever need a break, Chattanooga, TN is a great place to visit! 😊

[@CydneyRey]

Also, just noticed your wall outlet cover! You truly took things into detail on the room makeover :) so cute!

[@kristina812]

Hopefully this makes you feel a little less alone: I’ve been struggling with seasonal depression. It’s been raining and for some reason it effects my mental health. But it’s okay. Most days are good, just occasionally it hits me. I was supposed to see a special someone tomorrow but with Covid he most likely can’t come. So just feeling down today. But I’ll see him again soon. I really appreciate your videos and how open you are. Hearing you talk about mental health helps me tremendously. God has got us and we will get through this. Love you Sam!

[@countchocula5379]

“Close your eyes when you blow on seasonings.” ☝🏻One of the most important, helpful, and underrated pieces of advice we will ever hear. 💕

[@mcarney101]

Ahhh ive been waiting all day for the notification! Now I'm laying in bed watching my favorite vlogmas. The best way to end the day!

[@rubyyesenia9255]

I'm giving you a big virtual hug, sam! 🫂

[@breab.5863]

When she unplugged the Grinch and he like, slowly started deflating with his head laying in his hand 🤣

[@stella-anikgrandl2026]

Sam, I just wanted to say I freaking love you. I don‘t even know you in person but your videos are such a comfort-source of mine. Thank you so much. Thank you for making my day a little bit better ❤️🙏🏻
