A SLICE OF LIFE vlog 🥝 winter days, book clubs & a new kitten!!

[@francescaju4455]

Makes me happy to know that your brother has given that kitten a better life full of love

[@ChitsandCats]

The way your brother acts around the pets you already have makes it clear he is destined to be a pet-dad. And he will be perfect with the kitten. I still can't get over the "man-cat cave" he made for Calcifer including the little pool table etc. That kitten hit the jackpot.

[@dishamishra5057]

It's 4 am in India. I was mindlessly scrolling through KZbin as I was having trouble sleeping. But the moment I saw your video.. oh boy the relief I felt. For a person who loves snow and winters, Emma you have no idea how much warmth and comfort you bring to us.

[@AlexandraNMorgan]

It's so noticable how much happier you've been since leaving Toronto. Glad you've recovered some joy.

[@khadeejah5968]

has she mentioned where she’s moved to?

[@myrme5198]

@@khadeejah5968She just went home for indefinite time

[@grff_]

Right now she's at her family's home cuz sometimes she shows her dog​@@khadeejah5968

[@kariikosmos3005]

​​@khadeejah5968 I don't think directly, but she's mentioned she's back with her family for the meantime

[@roisintuohy2454]

The snow and nature is so narnia-esque i love itt❄️so beautiful 🥹

[@hyemiyah]

the first part of the video reminded me of drive your plow over the bones of the dead by olga tokarczuk for some reason. would love to live in a town full of snow some day. also, congratulations to ben and his girlfriend for being part of the kitten distribution system now.

[@Bubblet1177]

I'm having a bit of a tough time in my final year of school here in australia and i just wanted to say that i've been watching your channel for about 3 years now and your videos always make me feel so at peace and cozy. i just wanted to tell you that because youve been opening up about the tough time that youve been having and i wanted you to know that this community really loves what youve built with this channel. sorry if that was a bit rambly, but yeah. ❤❤❤ ☺️☺️

[@MotherofMax-he6mj]

Re: Monte Cristo... OMG! I have to say my favorite book EVER! I'm like half way through. This book is just wonderful through out the whole story, but while Edmond was in prison right before he meets Fabri and he has just basically given up all hope. I felt that. I could even smell and feel the prison. I also felt it HARD upon his first meeting of Abbe Fabri. There was a line in the book that says something like "two sighs together are like prayers, and prayers coming from two hearts are almost acts of grace..." WOW, just wow. I instantly wrote that on my bedroom wall. So beautiful, just like the rest of this book.

[@kariikosmos3005]

Also, the brother Benjamin content is giving me life. I adore your antics together 🥰

[@AllyEmReads]

I'm originally from Minnesota but have been living in the southwest US desert for most of my life, so I need you to know that your snow clips instill such a sense of peace and nostalgia in me and I really appreciate it. I miss the snow so much and haven't seen it since 2019, but I'm able to live vicariously through your videos! Also, I'm about 30% into the Count of Monte Cristo and I'm LOVING the drama. Thank you for making me pick it up!

[@isabelaliboriocanal]

Your videos make me feel so warm and happy! I'm from Brazil, snow is definitely something we don't see over here hahaha it looks like a dream, oh god! I had the chance to see the snow twice in my life and I never forgot about it, I dream about having this kind of winter days, reading and watching the snow fall, maybe one day! But I can live this dream through your videos and this makes me so cozy! You're such a lovely person, you have this kind of light and I'm happy to see you getting better

[@blabbinglobster]

You look so happy in the beautiful winter wonderland, Emmie. It makes me happy to see you so tranquil. Toronto has been mostly mild and rainy this 'winter.'

[@leezirkle7840]

I'm 54 and I still love the snow and cold like you do. Where I live, we barely get a dusting of snow so I was so glad to see your video today. 😊

[@emilypettet6536]

I hope Chino helps Calcifer have some fun and cat companionship. He's adorable!!! ❤ The peace and serenity of walking in the snow woods and untouched snow is so beautiful ✨️

[@andrewmalone2911]

This is the sort of thing that makes me want to move to Canada. You can just retreat to the top of the world where it's silent, and beautiful, and you can see deer tracks in your own footprints in the snow.

[@denitsastfnv]

I almost cried when I saw the cabin and the snow... it's breathtaking. Love your videos, it feels like I'm wrapped up in a comfy blanket, thank you ❤

[@ninja_boy]

Stunningly beautiful winter landscape. As someone who's spent his whole life in a warm climate that doesn't see snow, I'm still blown away by it whenever I do see it (in particular, up in the Sierras).

[@camscornerbooks]

“I’ve awakened into a dream of my own frosty making.” I’m putting that on a shirt.

[@GraceMed]

Absolute magestic winter wonderland!!! Beautiful!!! What a dream of mine to spend a few days there, reading, drinking hot tea with a fire roaring, and taking in all that winter beauty around me... ❤

[@RhiannaVarney]

I love a wintery scene. It really encourages a cozy reading evening, which are the best 😃Also, love the cat 🐱

[@denisefreitas6727]

I loved the vlog, specially to see Calcifer & Chino's friendship! It's really lovely! 🐈🐈💕💕💕💕

[@donna25871]

I love Like Water For Chocolate (and the film is pretty good too). I tried a couple of the recipes when I first read it back in the early 1990’s. The meals that Tita creates are so imbued with the emotions that she is experiencing while creating them that the people who then eat them experience the same thing.

[@penultimateh766]

Our hostess always wows with her brains, soft voice, and cute haircut!

[@tiialaine]

After growing up I have never really liked winter, but your videos have helped me to enjoy it more! Now im really loving seasons in general, all of them are beautiful in their own way. Thank you for this video

[@sarahwinchell3290]

this channel is literally healing to me, good for the heart. thank you so much emmie for creating such a refreshing space on this little corner of the internet ☺♥

[@amolove24]

I’m currently visiting family in Colombia and it’s so hot over here so this is a nice reminder that it’s winter in North America and the snow looks absolutely beautiful.

[@erica53564]

You’re almost at 400,000 subscribers!🎉🥳🎊

[@hobbyjournals]

your vlogs are so so comforting and the way you speak about books is just lovely 🥰

[@moonstonepearl21]

Welcome Chino! Those eyes! You can feel the sweetness and innocence radiating off of him

[@lunaginebra]

“I’ve awakened into a dream”. This is so magical, Emma, I love seeing you so happy 🥹 I think I would say the exact same thing if I was there cause that would make one of my dreams come true cause I love snow so much too and I’ve only seen her once 🥹🩵 I think I couldn’t live in a world without your videos and wholesome vibe 🩵🩵 also im so happy you liked Like water for chocolate!

[@emilysmith9826]

I love snow too and nature so much!!! I adore this video!! Love that your brother loves cats and animals in general!!!

[@cat2helen]

I want to live where you are. I have a huge thing for nature as well and I love, love snow. I miss my snow, I moved to North Carolina from Michigan, but I miss my snow and winter so badly. I am jealous, because you are so lucky to have this much snow at the end of January.

[@sofiafernandes3029]

I can't even explain how thankful I am that after all this time you still post so much. I just wanted to let you know that your videos keeping me company helps me stay afloat during times when everything else is going wrong. Thank you, thank you, thank you❤

[@lasaves3207]

Those snowy woods are indeed a dream ❤

[@Harmosaurus]

The vibes in this one on point! Thank you for making an escape for us, even if its only for a second out of this crazy life. 400k!! 🎉

[@moonstonepearl21]

What a relaxing, peaceful, beautiful, and magical intro. 🤍❄

[@Crystal-hw2re]

yes i love loop!! i've always thought you'd like them

[@pepokidden]

The snowy woods in the beginning had me sobbing, I’m in another Ontario city and it’s so mild, I miss the snow so much. Much love to you and Calcifer ❄️

[@SofiaPp]

The cottage in the woods looks so beautiful! I'd like to visit snowy woods some day, it looks so magical. Seeing it through a screen fills me with joy and excitement, I can't imagine how beautiful it must be irl. I've seen that much snow only once in my life when I stayed in a small french city. I remember the cycle lane was completely frozen and that's also when I found out that stepping on snow makes krrr noises 😂

[@LibrariesandLattes]

I’m jealous of all that snow!! 😳 So cozy 🩵

[@Cubehead27]

Literally missed this 'cause I was completely absorbed with finishing the Count of Monte Cristo 😅 god DAMN what a book! Also Chino is beautiful I love him 🥰

[@aaron_osborne]

I went to Canada during summer break a few years ago but the sunlight beaming off the snow is beautiful. Gotta go back sometime.

[@mollybrewer8098]

literally crying at how beautiful that snow is. I live in a part of the U.S. where we don’t see a lot of snow, but we got 9 inches two weeks ago. I went for a walk while it was snowing, and I swear, I’ve never felt more peaceful than that day in the snow. Converted for life now ❄️❄️❄️

[@garrettcason3692]

How you do fellow Tennessean?

[@mollybrewer8098]

@garrettcason3692 yes! So sad it's all gone now.

[@MaBelleIndifference]

Omg I just finished Emily Wilde's Map of the Otherlands and I loved it even more than the first one! 😁

[@kelogeist]

I was bored out of my mind, so this is great timing! I am always joyful to see your videos

[@hoaninhmanh3918]

I saw and followed your videos since 2019. I feel fun and chill . Emmie so beautiful. Thank you

[@eirenemarie1]

Those snow scenes at the cabin are magnificent! Thanks for sharing those!

[@MsGloomyLamp]

Hoping that some day all your vlogs will be you chilling in your cabin, nature and animals all around 💛

[@foxingboarder2744]

the count is one of my favourites. great story of a well deserved comeuppance and one i think anyone can relate to. huntsville is gorgeous. my grandparents had a home in haliburton and the weather was a lot like this in the winter, what an ideal. im listening to turkish music as i watch this so maybe not as immersed in the snow as i should be, also it's been such a mild winter in southern ontario, hate it. about to go out thrifting. another great vlog! congrats on the addition to the family! ... haha i love loop earplugs. i use them to read. cant concentrate otherwise. i have turquoise ones and i love them. theyre really great

[@Blondie101010100]

Awh Chino is thoroughly gorgeous. Look at his cute fur and eyes, and the sound of his little miaows 😻 Your brother Ben is a softie like you... must have been all those cat renovations!! 😂 The snow footage is breathing ❤ So happy you're enjoying your time at home x🐈🗻❄️

[@ReadingNymph]

Omg the snow!! We haven't had much here in London (uk) I personally prefer warmer weather but it does look so magical ✨️

[@nannybells]

omg the two kitties together

[@TomHuckACAB]

Emmie is so amazing.

[@beck13xs]

omg I literally went on that highway so much as a kid! My family went to Huntsville a lot. It's like my home away from home. Such memories!

[@roseschrier3770]

Love the vlog! Beautiful out door scenery & adorable cats!🤗🌨💙🐱

[@joeawad4325]

I read Invisible Cities by Calvino and I have to say, while I did not love the story, the writing is absolutely bewitching and actually perfect for the winter season. Very excited!

[@Ms.shoukeen]

I have awakened! I have awakened into a dream of my own frosty making….. sounds like how Emma will start her novel ❤ and I can’t wait to read it 🤩♥️ ☃️🌨️

[@edwardleecaliforniausa]

Good morning Emmie happy Thursday morning and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you and I enjoy your channel

[@LisaHausi]

We've only had like three days of snow this winter 💔 I loved this video, thank you

[@KMort]

Having more than one cat is a cult. You can't go back to 1. I went from 1 to 2, had 2 for ages and didn't want more, now I have 3. I feel like I can never have 1 cat again.

[@sealluv]

oh my gosh the cats are so adorable!!!

[@m.469]

encyclopaedia of fairies was a 4 star for me too, but map of the otherlands was a 5 star! I had the biggest smile on my face the whole time I was reading it, definitely recommend :)

[@pendragon2012]

It's been a lot of fun being in your new book club, Emma, and I'm especially excited for the February edition! Stay well!

[@tundeszabo8220]

That cottage in the snowy forest looks like a place from a fairytale. You already look so much happier than in Toronto. 😊 Chino's beautiful, I hope he and Calcifer will get on well with Eevee. Now the boys can enjoy Calcifer's Clubhouse together. 😻 I can't wait to hear your thoughts on The Count of Monte Cristo.

[@zoeeastwood6007]

As you were talking about reading more food in literature I bought this book the other day called The Kawogama Food Detectives and it sounds like the most interesting book ever, I think you would really like the sound of it

[@roseschrier3770]

Love the snow so pretty! Fun tagging along🤗❤️❄️

[@Ms.SpookyNerd]

Love winter walks. Great vlog.⛄📚☕❄️

[@joobydoobydoo]

Watching this with a hot cappuccino in my hand, and it’s the coziest ever! Feels like being there with you ❄️💙 your videos are always my favorites emmie! Sending love from Italy xoxo

[@rowenaroberta5244]

Today I've finished The Count of Montecristo, so before starting Middlemarch, I think I could join the Around the World Challenge with Calvino's Why Read the Classics, that I already have at home 😊 Calcifer and Chino are adorable ❤

[@dl476]

You need to watch the film Like Water for Chocolate!

[@miriam2526]

The snow!! So beautiful! I want to be right there right now! ❤

[@dianadazai7489]

❤ happy to see your new vlog, all that snow is stunning

[@camscornerbooks]

I’m so glad you’re loving Monte Cristo!! ❤❤ I’m also really glad you ended up not reading it last year for the companion to The Brothers Karamazov because they really don’t match up.

[@iihdel7741]

we need the 2024 bloopers video and a notion tour video

[@blackheartbooks]

The sunflower mug is so cute

[@riley_2502]

the cat condo construction is my favorite mini segment!! I wish I was as handy as your brother :,)

[@ARMY_ksoo]

I finally strated Monte Cristo because of your bookclub ^^ Been scared of it and postponing it for a few years now, but it's finally happening!! Also love your vlogs, they are so relaxing I feel like I tooka vacation as well just by watching you ❤

[@baddaygetonaplane.4295]

There is a ballet of Like Water for Chocolate and it was absolutely beautiful and such a fun story

[@ransbackburnerig]

28:12 SO CUTE 😭❤️

[@alexandre47142]

Emma, this cottage in the woods truly looks it came straight out of a fairy tale. The nature is unbelievably gorgeous! And Chino is really adorable! I think "If on a Winter’s Night a Traveller" is going to be a very interesting read. I'm personally a big fan of Calvino's "Invisible Cities". And by the way, do you play electric guitar?

[@queeniefia]

I’m loving the snow! We have none in MN and it feels so weird.

[@SyMpHOny893]

how have I not seen this sooner??? omg!!!

[@olena_503]

i recognized the yoga movements!! that's the 30 day yoga journey from yoga with adriene❤😊

[@stardustajm8618]

We had snow like that too and it’s already mostly melted and I miss it so much

[@haerhawk]

Omg another vlog how lovely & also congratulations & best wishes to you & your brother on the new kitten

[@maiasolaris3255]

Ohh i'm so happy you enjoyed the snow

[@tinagarcia3571]

So jealous, your cabin is what my yard should look like here in Oregon but we are having record warm winter at least I see the deer every morning. I have a 4wheel drive and no snow. Thanks for the snow trip I needed that.

[@Phoebe_934]

I can not believe this, but just as I was watching your vlog I came across a winter book that I think you'd LOVE! It's called the winter garden by Alexandra bell ❄️

[@rondoflicflac]

Omggg the snow 😍

[@Halseyismyrealname]

Chefs Kiss 👌 such a gorgeous Vlog, my Dad lives in Washington and it looks exactly like this. Its making me wish I was there

[@mattkean1128]

I've never been anywhere with close to that amount of snow ❄️

[@katerinakokki2013]

I looooved this book! And love your book club 🥰

[@mennatu-allahislam562]

absolutely love Chino he is adorable

[@JohnSaxon-vw5vi]

I am so jealous of you and the amount of snow you were in totally 👍 wishing we had snow ⛄️ here where I live in Australia 😂😂😂❤❤❤

[@LisaK1075]

This is all so beautiful!!!

[@itsjustamy1876]

gosh that snow look like home

[@cattothefuture]

I saw you talk about loving Tomb Raider. Have you played any walking simulator games? They let you experience a mix of a movie and a novel. Firewatch, Gone Home, Tacoma and The Stanley Parable are some of my favourite.

[@samyanggg-b6z]

What a beautiful vlog this is, Ems 💙🤍

[@mistylima56]

10°C is too cold for me 😭 can't even imagine what -20 would feel like but the snow looks soo gorgeous
