I swear, a tear came from my eye after saying "I've gained a little bit of weight and it's nothing to be ashemed off" It's something so small but brings so much joy and confort to hear, something really hard to put on your mind, the fact that Alex herself had some issues with this in the past and now is saying that really makes me believe that i one day will be more ok with myself. Alex, if you're reading this, thank you, you don't know how much you and your videos have helped my life

Weight gain is definitely nothing to be ashamed of, and I'm so happy to hear you say it. You inspire me in my own body confidence journey, and it's nice to see someone with a similar body type trying different styles like this! I know the struggle of going up and down through sizes and changing constantly. On a similar note, I have been thinking this and finally saying it now, but your recent insta posts and first video you posted from this series made me audibly gasp lol, you just look incredibly beautiful and radiant. not that you weren't before, but now you can really see just how much your body was suffering. there's so much light in your eyes, your cheeks are pink, you are literally glowing!! i'm so happy to see you embracing the changes - and not just eating a protein cookie every day T.T So happy you are posting again

Rub the stain on the t-shirt with detergent, white vinegar sometimes works too. Wash a few times and then put it somewhere where the sun can shine on it, sometimes stains can be bleached out by the sun if you can get them faded enough

I am very thankful for the pigeon behaviour lessons. I have a lil pigeon family that moved into my backyard a couple years ago. Coal and Mrs Coal made a ‘nest’ in our brazier, that we cannot use any more… because their baby, Ashy, thinks it’s his/her home. They have been working on the nest for a while now, so, I’m hoping they have another lil baby to add to the family soon.

The metal frame you thrifted, probably had a beveled glass that bubbled out slightly with either a replica of a portrait or landscape. I have 2 of those, about 3 inches larger than yours. I love mine. I got them from my mother-in-law. Popular in the late 90's early 2000's. They go well in a Victorian themed bedroom or living room.

I Love Floppy! very chunky and cute! like me, when I get dressed in my costumes for a performance If I am wearing a bustle, pannier or hoop skir i'm very poofy and chunky and since my kitchen and entry way is very narrow the skirts can be very destructive wherever I walk. After seeing that trinket dish it reminded me of something. it may not be of your game interest but there's a game called fable 3 and the royal crest, loading screen and some hidden forms of art and symbolism are of roosters and chickens. There's even a side quest where you get a rooster costume and cosplay as a chicken that convinces other chickens to follow you and you lead them to their special chicken home.

For the stain on the Valentino tshirt, I've just discovered the most effective stain remover (especially good for food and makeup stains) called Purrfect Potion. Not sure if you can get in Australia. And it's a bit pricey. It's actually marketed for removing cat stains and odors. But I've used it on my kids clothes, and on ancient stains on vintage clothes, and it obliterates them. You may have to apply more than once for very bad stains. But it gets the job done. Just a tip, in case you can get your hands on it!

It sounds like you need to thrift a recipe book, find a recipe (that needs a large jug of course) then thrift the relevant kitchen equipment if you don’t already have it and try and follow the recipe. Personally I like recipe books which were the ones full of staple recipes for beginners in about the fifties to seventies. They are fairly economical and don’t assume you know everything or have fancy equipment. They are the ones I always come back to as the basis for all other cooking. The fancy recipes from famous chefs might’ve got better pictures and might have one or two interesting things I. But in practical terms they are useless and generally end up taking up space and I resent them for it , or they go in the charity shop pile.
