Hey guys! I have missed you all! I thought we would start back slow today with a cute little advent calendar! Unfortunately this whole video is a bit of a mess! From broken items, falling apart scrunchies, to tater trying to eat everthing, and me barely being able to breathe it was a bit of a struggle! Let me know what you guys think of this calendar! do you think it is worth the $60 original price tag? Let me know! Love ya💖

FYI a bean feast is a term of English origin typically used to mean a meal that is in celebration of something or, historically, a meal thrown for employees by their employer. Basically the equivalent of a "nobody filed for workman's comp this month" pizza party. I, too, made it to adulthood singing that line and never realizing i had no idea what a bean feast was until very recently 😂

Ignore whoever is telling you that adding "-y" on the end of things, they are not worth listening to you. What i have noticed that you (like me & many others) say sorry WAY too much - when what you really mean is "thank you for your patience/understanding/support" - it truly helps switch your mindset, esp with you as you often apologise for being sick or unfortunate life situs and you need to stop. If ANYTHING wriggles it way into you brain, i hope its this because WE LOVE YOU and we love the way you speak and you dont have to change a thing. You are beautiful inside and out and its because you are being YOURSELF. 💖
