what i spend in a week as a small business owner living alone in LA 💸 budgeting, products, burnout

[@annikasleaf]

shop update this sunday 09.25.22 at 10:00 a.m.! check my community post for all the details ✨

[@bissene1553]

I'm excited

[@trinnlovesyou]

how much will they cost??

[@blaneandgame9]

ay bruh what sticker paper do you use

[@clarissabrum3063]

You are my espiration

[@minhkhco1257]

TraloiDS

[@official.kamooo]

Rewatching Annika’s videos is literally therapy❤😭

[@khalilahd.]

Agreed 🥹❤️

[@yaoifangirl1257]

Yeas its makes my day hopefully🌟💜

[@alba5846]

Agreed 👏🏻

[@pouty7013]

Ikr its so motivating too

[@user-suny88]

yes!

[@TheSpoonburger]

A tip I learned recently about shredded cheese: The pre-shredded kind has a powder on it to keep it from sticking together. That powder makes tummy issues WORSE!! So now I shred my own from blocks and cheese bothers me less!

[@Lia-gb5ev]

YOURE SO REAL FOR THIS 😭‼

[@willowtreezs]

i also noticed the higher quality cheese barley affects me (tummy wise)!! so if your able to splurge on your parm or cheddar i would highly recommend it :D

[@lainiwakura1776]

It also prevents it from melting correctly.

[@Kleafieslays]

Yes, but u also might just be lactose intolerant 😂

[@jenjenn96]

The powder is just cellulose. So it’s just fiber! Maybe that’s why it makes you 💩

[@ellietopham1241]

The pasta was so bland because you used tomato paste instead of a tomato sauce like marinara, something seasoned and meant to be eaten raw. Tomato paste is more for base flavors like soups and things to build off of:) hopefully this helps with your red sauce journey!!

[@jellyf3lx455]

I love how Annika is an adult and everything but seeing her just be herself and have fun just makes my day each time, fr her vlogs are the thing I look most forward to in my week.

[@Nonyah123]

thats what every adult is like without kids

[@kawaii_gallery]

annika's vlogs are soo aesthetically pleasing, relaxing and therapeutic to watch ✨💕😌 the editing is always so chill yet aesthetic 🌷🔆

[@peggymoreno9449]

I watched this video again and the part at the end made me want to comment to you. You’re doing a great job at only 22yrs old. You’ve gone to college, have a small business, live on your own and run a channel. Don’t be hard on yourself, you are doing a lot of things much older adults aren’t doing. You are creative and budget savvy, ❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️. GOOD FOR YOU!!!!! Have a blessed day!

[@xxcloufs1793]

I know I'm late but can we just appreciate annika's hard work trying ti live her life , make us productive, and entertains us

[@khalilahd.]

Your vlogs are always so comforting. I like to put them on in the background while I work ☺️

[@crtancica7660]

About the food possibly going bad (your veggies tasting funny) there's a rule my aunt taught me: 2-2-2 2 hours on room temperature before putting it in the fridge 2 days in the fridge to eat it or before putting it in the freezer (if it's food you can freeze and reheat later) 2 months in the freezer (if it's something that's been cooked/baked already)

[@salsag968]

Hi Annika! You are my favourite channel, you are such a wholesome person and I always watch you because your channel isn't just boring, it has a hint of humour and that's what makes you my favourite. Ilysm❤

[@kimdaperson5737]

I cook rice for longer and add oil to make a nice crispy layer at the bottom! it's delicious! I'm half iranian and it's very common over there. You should try it, it's called 'tahdig' :)

[@Rengenano]

Your vlogs make me so happy to watch. They’re very comforting and I like that you show yourself in the realest way

[@oliviaclairexo]

this is such a cool video idea, i can’t wait to watch! thank you, annika, for inspiring us everyday! 🥺🍞🥰

[@annikasleaf]

[@NotAnOddity]

I've been watching your videos for awhile now, and i can confidently say out of everyone i follow i look forward to yours the most! They are so comfy but still are interesting enough that i want to pay attention, you are doing so amazing! Keep up the great work!!!

[@whosyou3022]

Tomatoe paste is more for colour than for seasoning bestie You have to add seasoning still not just the paste alone hence the bland pasta

[@shenruiky]

Oh my god Annika! You've gone so far from when i started watching you! So proud of you girl 😊

[@stephaniedasilvaox]

So happy you posted

[@niyassecondaccount]

I just watch your videos whenever I feel kinda sad or anxious (and that's like every night),, always helps me to calm down 🥺💗

[@annagracebliek9314]

Im shocked that you are only 22, you just seem very mature and grounded for 22 :) I love watching these vlogs. They are so tasteful and pleasant.

[@fenkous1958]

Absolutely loved the longer vlog and video, exactly what I need when im experiencing burnout myself frfr, your vlogs show enough of your life to keep me interested and actually have personality which I really appreciate!

[@cherryblossoms4828]

[@shirinnnn]

Im loving the variety in content, this vid was so fun and interesting to watch, and I’m glad you’re out of burnout !

[@mariships3320]

my comfort channel 😭😭

[@coffeeeee5371]

She's amazing. I'm really excited for the next shop update, sure it will be amazing! She's such a cutie, I love you Annika

[@AshleeJade90]

A great combo for a fried egg and cheese sando is mayo and mustard, I had it once and it blew my mind. I'm always inspired after watching one of your videos that I could start my own online business.

[@anbeban]

I'm 40 and all I can say is you are off to a great start my friend :) Start investing and saving now (advice I would have given myself at your age) and if/when you can purchase real estate do it. I was an adventurer and lived in France/Italy/China/California before returning to France and have only now adulted to the extent of purchasing real estate. It didn't 'make sense' before but it could have easily been a passive source of income... Anyhoo, sorry for the random unsolicited advice, keep up the good work! I very much enjoy your content!!

[@TheLastChickenNugget_]

First thing I noticed in this video is that your make up looked so good! Thanks for the vid❤❤❤

[@TrashyAshey]

Have you ever thought of posting your recipes to like a PDF for download? I would LOVE to learn how to make some of the stuff you cook

[@elsjeslothower5495]

Idk why but I’m so invested in Annika’s bedframe arch

[@aishathnauma6991]

I am so obsessed. And it's so therapeutic.

[@Muyoungg]

I haven't been watching your videos for a while so I'm catching up buy you make me want to do stuff for once and make it look not boring

[@harumishanghai8555]

I'm definitely here for all of the New Jeans hype you've been sharing. I've been obsessed with them as well! 😌✨ Also I can't believe that we have the same heart phone case, my phone grip is a cute sad clown 😂 I'm also so excited for the shop update!

[@am1esa973]

I always use nutmeg powder, bell pepper powder and black pepper for the sauce and I also fry chopped mini tomatoes with garlic and onion 🥹 then tomato paste, then whipped cream and all the seasoning 🥹

[@ashlaenicole5410]

Hi Annika! I always look forward to your videos and seeing the food you make! Thank you for sharing your life alone! I was wondering about the zipper grocery bag you used. It's huge! So you have a link to it or something similar?

[@thornsandrosess]

Omg those pop sockets are everything🥺🥺🥺 And just when i start looking for new phone accessoires too! definetly gonna be saving that date😋⏰️

[@sidneytheil2940]

I LOVE your videos!! I normally don’t like subtitles but Idk your videos are just so relaxing and nice 🥰 I wanna be so organized some time 😫😭

[@wolfy4882]

✨A tip for cutting onions that my mom taught me is that onions seek the closest water source and that is usually your eyes so if if you wet a paper towel and lay it on the cutting board before and while you’re cutting the onions you shouldn’t cry. Because of the onions at least✨

[@marccolomayt82094]

Annika’s long living alone in L.A. vlog feels me so totally relaxed!!! ❤❤❤

[@buttercup1312]

The new phone grips are so cuteeee 💝💝💝

[@posh_pancakes]

Best protein shake: Adkins dark chocolate royal or the mocha coffee one. Love your videos! So relaxing and lovely 🌸 Thanks for sharing your day

[@p1nkflwrs]

I’m so glad it’s finally cooler. I’m new to Cali and the heat is worse than I thought. 😂

[@IcedAesthetic]

14:55 This is literally me every time I’m in my kitchen waiting for something 💀

[@nindyshoo]

Thank you Annika, your vlog accompanying me when i work at midnight like rn (it's 00:10 indonesian time hehe) Love u bunch 🙌🏽💕

[@christinecanavan7333]

Hey there! I am watching this Vlog with my 8 week old baby kitten in my lap. My son surprised me with her and I love her to pieces ❤️. Btw I have noticed too that Full/Queen sheets are almost the same. But Queen is loose enough to wrinkle and cause hurting hips so I bought those suspender things to keep them tight. Full are hard to get on that last corner. What a nuisance!!

[@shinehong538]

when i saw the new jeans dance in the intro, i was like OMG yesssss

[@bitanem6195]

Your videos are just super fun and calming! Love you! ❤❤

[@cerwelt]

Oh I can’t wait for the phone bear thingys. Why can’t I remember what they’re called? So dadorable!

[@gayaf22]

3:56 "Which one is this one...?" Lolll Annika, Lolll!

[@amelia6915]

Annika your videos has inspired me a lot>>>>> so proud of you keep going on

[@kawaiavocado2706]

the grips and key chains are so cute. Now, you just need to make phone cases that match the grips. that would be awesome. I have never been excited about merch before, but those key chains and grips were just too cute. you did a really good job on them.

[@ReadingNymph]

Another lovely video as always. Managing a budget is always hard but this was a good reminder you still need to have fun!

[@Cloudybearr]

So aesthetic 😩🤚 Also love the new items add it shop!!! But they are all sold out so I might just wait so I can order some new items or items in general!!!🥲🫰🏽

[@cristyveg3705]

I cannot wait for the keychains and the phone grips, they're a dream Annika!!!! 😍💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@blitzzzz1606]

I just realized this was an hour ago! I just wanna say I love your videos they really Brighten my day!

[@prive7469]

I wear glasses and lenses for many many years, and it doesn't help against onions. But what i do is i wash the onions after i peeled them and i cut with a knive that is wet. water is the solution against the sulfur from the onions that burns your eyes.

[@chupachups3393]

annika those pop sockets are soooo cute!!! 100% gonna get one

[@undyingloria]

Your videos are so relaxing for me, I really enjoy watching them! Also, those phone grips are so adorable I really want one T_T ♥

[@MoonlightLily101]

Another vlog 😻😻 yay!! Question, where is the phone case you changed to from? It’s soo cute!!

[@MagicalKawaiiland]

yeah, the pasta would be better with heavy cream instead of cream cheese, I suggest putting heavy cream and smoked salmon because it's delicious! (this kind of recipe with heavy cream was super popular in Italy in the 80s so my mum always makes it heheh)

[@celinemeryl]

I literally want to start vlogging because of you.. love your videos 💜

[@PurplePumpkin18]

Ooooh! I'm excited for your keychains and phone grips!

[@0325bsp]

oh yay!!! just in time to watch with my breakfast before work :D i haven't finished the video yet but i hope you take it easy annika!

[@mori8722]

as much as we want to be updated, i doesnt hurt if you cant upload on time on some days, we can watch or rewatch your old videos. your health is important, take a rest... take care Annika ♥

[@lainiwakura1776]

I don't know how you can just half a bagel, they're too good to not eat the whole one! And I don't know your feelings on pumpkin flavor, but Aldi has pumpkin flavored cream cheese that I'm looking forward to getting next time I get groceries. I can't stand cooked spinach, it always leaves a gross film in my mouth. Been scrambling eggs with frozen kale and I like it better, it's heartier than the spinach (but I learned kale is in the cabbage family, so maybe that's why). Always taste your cook while it's cooking, so you can add spices if you need to. Tomato paste is always bland and is typically used as additives to tomato based sauces or on top of meatloaf.

[@adriannelaconi4368]

My daughter and I love watching your vids together ♥♥ But the pasta sauce 😅 Tomato paste is just concentrated pureed tomato - no seasoning no anything. Plus the insta vid included basil salt and pepper and the basil would have made a world of difference! I highly recommend trying it again. Thanks so much for being a constant inspiration 🥰
