Hi Grace, I turned 31 in April so I’ve been having a little existential crisis, if I’m being honest. Things have been difficult but I’m trying to stay positive! I’m autistic and receiving support from adult services. It’s strange to be learning how to live in my 30’s, I wish I’d been able to do it earlier! I’m so many years behind everyone else and hoping I can still achieve something. On a happier note; My recent obsession is frozen fruit. I’ve been buying the bags of prepared frozen fruit from Asda. There’s a summer berries one and a more generic one with apple, blackberries, strawberries, melon, grapes etc and I keep popping to the freezer to get more, I eat them while they’re frozen. It’s actually great, especially since the weather is getting warmer

[@aqilaali2354]

I think once you forget a set timeline or life expectations then it’s so liberating - sure you’re on track and exactly where you need to be. Sending you good vibes!

[@maneskinnnnn7190]

there is no such thing as ''behind everyone else'' all the things you are probably referring to are social constructs and meant for conformists, you are an individual live your life how you want and on your terms,

[@Lilah1848]

You're a good writer, very expressive.

[@royal8133]

@@aqilaali2354 thank you! I hope I can get into this mindset and stay there. I keep setting myself unrealistic expectations and want to be able to accept myself and my abilities. I think my 30’s are going to be my best years, I’ll keep on improving and doing my best. Sending you the bestest of vibes only.

[@royal8133]

@@maneskinnnnn7190 you’re very right, I’m always comparing myself to everyone else around me, especially the people younger than myself. It’s unrealistic and a negative mindset to stay in, I’m working hard to improve myself. I would never judge someone else for their age and where they are in their life so I shouldn’t do that to myself.

[@macimooon]

omg chloe’s baby 😭 so precious she’s definitely got those booth genes ❤

[@lauraBudreviciene]

“I love rigatoni my husband thou not a fan” *puts rigatoni away* 😂😂 love it

[@lottesmit3619]

My new obsession is that I recently found a type of exercise I actually really like and look forward to three times a week! After years of hating exercising, I’m so excited about this 😂

[@rameenrana3938]

That’s awesome! What type of exercise is it?

[@tvojeprezuvky]

​@@rameenrana3938you'll never know

[@Kari_B61ex]

Good to see you, Grace. I've been home delivery shopping since before the pandemic with Sainsbury's. They kept me on their priority list during lockdown. I used to book the 7/8am delivery and a few months ago it started to be delivered late. I now book the saver 7/11am slot which is cheaper and it arrives between 7/8am. Loved your Auntie Grace bit and loved the way your darling little niece smiled at her Grandma/Nanna. So cute.

[@lucylongley2562]

Silent watcher here, just got a new barista job so LOVING learning more about coffee as a coffee nerd

[@loisgale5131]

my new obsession is porridge with a strip of cadburys chocolate melted on top for breakfast. delicious !

[@jodievance]

My current obsession is documentaries about hoarders - quite random but I find it so interesting and love when they’re able to turn their lives around and get the support they need!!

[@kierancampire]

Grace I dunno if it's a "new obsession" necessarily But, I will be light on the details, my ex repeatedly SA'd me throughout the relationship in 2019-2020, and I went through a bunch of other traumas and struggles. But all throughout April I finally wanted to do something about it, then yeah, earlier this month I joined a gym and have been going there and loving it! I feel like I'm reclaiming my body and who I am as a person! Again, no details, but some of the SA was related to the gym, and just with how bad my anxiety was in general, I kept crying randomly every day and feeling a fear I haven't felt in a while. Yet I went, I did it, I spoke to people! And I have now gone 3 times in total! I sorta became inactive and stopped pushing myself, gained a ton of weight, and let my trauma and anxiety control me. And if you told me even last year I would have been that person going to the gym every morning? I never would have believed you! Yet even though (cause health issues) it exhausts me and feels like it's destroying my body, I feel so much happier already and like I'm getting back parts of me I thought I lost! So that is my new obsession, just going to the gym, reclaiming my identity, and taking back control from my ex!

[@heatherchambers1609]

Brilliant! Keep getting to the gym - self care for you👏

[@Sarah-pc1di]

Good for you! You’re so strong❤️

[@katk6049]

You got this girl!💪🏻

[@gabriellehaskell4219]

My current obsession is watching people’s videos of their ninja creami creations! I’m incredibly tempted to order one for myself

[@chloew_green]

"Cause I'm a little wet wipe" SENT ME AHAHAHAHA BYE

[@laurasabbato3820]

Silent watcher here :D My new obsession is reading even in my lunch breaks at work :D

[@S_J_banana]

I’ve really gotten into reading this year too. I’m on my 13th book so far this year already 😂

[@milliem9141]

I'm ​@@S_J_bananaI'm on my 39th

[@Chloe-ds9hd]

Congrats on being an auntie! Its the BEST

[@SaltyGypsy]

My new obsession is metal detecting! Hubby bought me a metal detector and I completely lose track of time, sweeping that thing back and forth and digging in the sand. So far no pirate booty discovered but I've found lots of beer bottle caps, tent stakes, a whopping 15 cents, and 2 Hot Wheels cars. The anticipation when it finds something is so much fun!

[@michaelalittle3622]

Awwww your niece is sooo gorgeous, congratulations❤ Also, your hair is so luscious

[@francoherrera5237]

My current obsession is thai food, making bread and gardening

[@susy4511]

My newest obssesion is watch vlogs of people traveling alone and also "what i eat in a day/week" i just search that random and choose one and see if i like it and like that i discover new vloggers

[@barbaraayersnetto459]

I am currently obsessed with Crochet! Had a day lesson with my mom a month ago and haven’t been able to put it down since!!!

[@katienichols8060]

Hey grace, love seeing your family grow !! My new food obsession is Tony’s chocoloney chocolate bars they are so so good. And I love baking lemon drizzle loaf I make my family one so regularly now haha. I went to my first therapy session today and the sun shining is making me feel so happy… love the vlogs always xx

[@lavenderlylin]

My new obsession is this little hotel and cafe in my town and it’s literally my aesthetic! Also obsessed with Eutruscan burial rituals but that’s not the main point.

[@DannyRodeck]

my new fascination is The Night Circus - it's a book and it's SO GOOOD I'm hooked

[@kates7277]

OMG my favourite book of all time! Have you read her other one - The Starless Sea?

[@eafj90]

Love these wholesome videos with you!

[@maneskinnnnn7190]

my new obsession is monk on netflix, he is a police detective with ocd, i have severe ocd which has destroyed and taken over my whole life, and this show makes me laugh while also showing the serious life destroying sides of ocd

[@JMPschool1]

I also have OCD and have watched Monk all the way thru twice. It is oddly comforting and also i think it helps me feel seen or something. I can't wait until I firget ut enough to watch it again lol

[@elizamirisacevedo4095]

I’ve been making sourdough bread, I’m obsessed. I’ve named my starter Agatha and she’s changed my life for the better.

[@chloehaymond]

I’m doing an internship at Disney World currently, and my new obsession is the Cosmic Rewind ride at Epcot!!! Best roller coaster I’ve ever been on.

[@lisapolanski9379]

My current obsession is receiving a produce box from the local farm collective every week and trying to eat the plethora of fruits and vegetables before they go bad. I'm eating them breakfast, lunch and dinner, plus snacks. I seriously hope I can keep up because I know it's good nutrition.

[@JessieCarty]

I went through a collage obsession last summer, so I thought I'd try crochet this summer . . . NOPE. But I have ordered a puzzle table! I'm really excited. I miss puzzles.

[@meganyounger4842]

Maybe your grocery order delivery got stuck behind a trash truck too!

[@gillyuk1013]

My new obsession is watching videos of people travelling in different classes on different airlines. Living that business class life through KZbin lol

[@melsyoutube]

thepointsguy!

[@gillyuk1013]

Yes! I love them!

[@estherswinnen2326]

Mine too! I love kara and nate's video's 😊

[@sarahbee7391]

Hi!! My new obsession is puppetry. I started working at the marionette theater here in South Carolina and its SO FUN. Making puppets and sets and doing the puppeteering !! Im 30, single mom of 2 little boys, ans its such a peaceful fun rhing to do when they are at school. . Appreciate you Grace ❤️

[@mixelle_0]

As an American, the assortment of “peculiar bits” at tj maxx and home goods are part of the reason why I love them so much 😅 plus they have some rather healthy snacks that I wouldn’t be able to find elsewhere 😊

[@Stephanie-ir6ki]

Silent watcher here! My recent obsession are bagels 🤤 I dunno what it is, but I can’t get enough of them!

[@klpillow]

Currently obsessed with formula 1. Watched the Netflix show and now I’m a lil racing girly. Never had watched a race in my life, now I’m watching every pre-show, practice lap, and press conference😂

[@mollybrown6461]

I LOVE TK Maxx food omg literally the reason I go there is the niche overpriced vegan snacks/wholefoods

[@meriambenouis5318]

Just a little tip with hand blenders. I bought a plastic one not knowing that after a while it would turn discoloured and bend. So now I have a metal one which is perfect.

[@paradeoflaughter]

Yes, treat yourself, Grace! Get a nice one that will last you ages

[@Jess-xg3hg]

My obsessions at the mo watching The summer I turned pretty I know I'm a bit late to the crowd. Learning to cook more from scratch really enjoying bread making find it very therapeutic. Loving pilates at the mo just wish I had more classes near me Xx

[@aqilaali2354]

I’m good! I turned 30 yesterday and my family organised a piniata which was SO Fun! I’m in my walk era - helps massively with my mental health! A new biscuit/chocolate brand id recommend is Elizabeth shaw? So good and I always ask for their stuff for my birthday as a treat

[@whimsiee716]

Yess this is exactly what i needed to watch when eating a curry. Also my new obsession is this book on japan i started reading because the only books i used to previously buy were cookbooks 🤣 But i'm suprised how much i'm enjoying reading a chapter or two before bed.

[@Mookei]

Do you mind if I ask which book? I love Japan!

[@applerox101]

learning about attachment styles is my new obsession lol

[@RebelAlliance42]

Set off a bug bomb, and set your fan,no heat or air-con, to high and put it on recycle mode. Then I really recommend getting a full interior groom.

[@soilgrasswaterair]

Gosh! Such a precious little one❤

[@catmac4287]

Love it how you now love putting your washing outside!!! You never used too!!

[@thegreyshrike]

Good news: rhubarb is absolutely still in season! You might have to look at a farmers market if you can't find any at your local supermarket.

[@outoftheklosset]

My current obsession is trying to figure out what type of bird is showing up at my feeder! I've searched the internet, done reverse image searches and even KZbin but I cannot figure out what kind of bird it is (& neither can the bird buddy AI).😂 I have a bird buddy so I get photos and videos daily and this sweet bird is just chilling and leaving me confused. I bet when I figure it out it'll be so obvious.😅 P.S Chloe's daughter is so precious and what a little clone of her!

[@sly_sloth1]

Bit late to the videos, as not been on yt in a while 🙈 but latest obsession has to be bridgerton! Omg s3!! So good! Eagerly waiting for the next part! 🫣🤣

[@carliem9494]

Tesco delivery driver told me you’ll never get a delivery at 07:00 as that’s when the team meetings for that delivery shift happen 🤣. As they’ve got a full hour load at that time, it will push everything else further back by at least 15mins. Couple this with roadworks/accidents/road closures due to laying new tech pipe etc!!!!! As for spiders, I have a whole cocoon of babies hatching on my dustbin😆 (at least 50 of them) Oh! And rhubarb -technically - is not a fruit it’s a vegetable .... brilliantly sour and goes well as a side with certain savoury dishes

[@kaybasson685]

Hi Grace you could always get an ikea piece of furniture, then paint it up, add some mouldings and change the handles to a look you want 😊 cheaper and a nice little project for you to do especially out in the sun 😊

[@rameenrana3938]

Yay!! Another video!

[@sarahreddin9601]

Hi Grace! I mostly lurk watching these! But I have fallen in love with Diamond art! I’ve made 4 since the start of the year!!! Obsessed!!!

[@lpsplash122]

I hadn’t watched your vlogs in so long and loved watching again ❤

[@emmanuelleschultze6095]

Love your vlogs. My current obsession is running, I also love to do strength training with weights. I've also been in a good place since therapy, I like my therapist and the somatic practices she has shown me.

[@ChrissyH193]

I’m a little late but I had such an awful time with Tesco! Went through a spout where every week they just completely cancelled our delivery. Now with Sainsbury’s and not a singleee issue, and barely any subs 10/10

[@elisabethjones1444]

yes please to a daily vlog this week!😍

[@katiebwheeler]

New thing, I am obsessed with crocheting doilies. There are so many fun tutorials on youtube, I've decided to make a bunch for Christmas gifts! lol

[@sammarshall604]

Everything crossed you segue into parenting and baby content 😂 it's a good natural progression!!

[@tovetotte]

Rhubarb should be in season all summer! If you grow it yourself you can harvest until the start of autumn.

[@laurareidy3603]

Currently obsessed with the twilight books - so fun to read them as an adult without all of the teenage girl stigma!

[@kathyjones6103]

I love seeing groceries hauls from a different country..I’m in Australia and D love seeing it x

[@Mookei]

My new obsession is learning to crochet plushies! It’s nice to be able to finally turn my brain off slightly. I cozy up listen to some Stephanie soo and crochet away

[@paradeoflaughter]

I'm currently planning my wedding so I guess that's my obsession? 😂 (also having trouble sleeping cause my brain won't shut up about everything so I guess it really is an obsession 😢)

[@vildesvelamjeldheim934]

[@Elwene2fr]

Gâteau yaourt (ya-oort) is my brother's specialty (he has a trick to make it even better) I miss it, you made me crave it so badly!

[@reannadean1406]

Iv just come back from krakow and all I can think about is a croissant i had with Camembert, ham and pear and I think it had mayo on it and it was incredible!!!

[@luciamiola8970]

Love the idea of the vlog every day this week

[@irener1111]

Chloe's beautiful baby ❤! Lately I've been into homemade French soda's and learning to play chess. Very random.

[@nicolemarshall3407]

Yes my Tesco shops have been the same (I’m in east London!). The last time it happened I had to go out so I called them for an update and they refunded me the pack & delivery cost for it being late, tip for next time! 😂

[@melsyoutube]

oh my god i’d never touch the car again 😭

[@crazycupcakes1709]

[@dels9587]

Oh, my sister in law, (who happens to be from England) has been living here in Canada since she was 18, and won't tell you how old we are now ..... anyway if her car had that many spiders, she would never enter it again unless it was professionally cleaned and double checked by her husband for at least a week....lol!!!! Our car was invested by ants at one point while we were on vacation in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, because of a banana peel (left by my huband) in the car....horrible feeling every time we got in the car. Ohhh and your niece is absolutely adorable 💗

[@hannah50353]

Oh, your new niece is gorgeous ❤ her chubby face is adorable 😊 congrats Grace

[@jennifer6833]

My newest obsessions are two, listening to Tortured Poets Department on repeat, I’ve been an OG Swiftie since her first album. The second obsession is being hooked on watching foodie vloggers as well as boating vloggers, examples: DaisySue a foodie, Logan a foodie, Jolly Foodie, Korean Englishman Foodie, Gabie Kook Foodie / Lifestyle, Sailing Zatara, Jack Whittaker Sailing, Finn Whittaker Sailing. There’s far too many to list.

[@shaenmacdevette9610]

Just out of interest, what time do you eat dinner and what time does the sunset? In Pretoria South Africa sun sets at 5:35pm now in Autumn. Also you can call it 'daog' week - daily vlog week. Or 7DVs - 7 daily vlogs

[@irener1111]

I am obsessed with making grilled salmon poke bowls and the game Word Swipe

My Tesco always comes early, but I do always book an afternoon appointment x

[@kaitseb8053]

Hi grace thanks for asking 😂 I just finished my second year of occupational therapy grad school and I currently have a fixation on beef pad see ew…. You know the Thai dish? Yeah 😂 been trying spots around my city

[@shrimponthebarbie]

Farfalle is the best pasta 😂 P.s. your niece is adorable ❤ thank you for sharing!!

M&S extra filled custard creams are the best custard creams!!!!

[@chelseydixon3917]

How is Chloe looking that incredible being a new mum!

[@estrellarouge]

I was so confused. I saw the ‘auntie duties’ vlog and then when I went to watch it, there was a different one. Took me a while to realise you put up two in two days. Yaaaay!! Long live Grace’s week of vlogs. Sorry. There’s no good name for it. Grace! We need an affiliate link for that bedding. I want it. And why not make a lil kick back from it!?

[@KickitwithKelly]

Junk journals are the new “thing” in my life! Check it out. Neat video idea too! 😊

[@mimisfeed]

Aw I love your videos so much grace ! Did you try Lidl’s hot cross bun sourdough? I’m not sure if they still do it but it was sensational! 😂

[@nicolamcauley330]

That yoghurt cake I went and googled looks so easy to make too was it nice? Absolutely love yoghurts btw I was obsessed with The Tattooist of Austwitz on Sky Atlantic which then made me watch schindlers list and the boy in the striped pyjamas and seeing those pyjamas you liked just looked like the prisoner outfit the Jews wore in Autzwitz. I’m going through loving anything peach and blackberry atm 🤷‍♀️ no idea why and loving Mary berry’s simple comforts loving some of her recipes

[@cliodhnacunningham1668]

m&s apple crumble overnight oats are my current obsession

[@fanny.barrier]

My current obsession is making my own sourdough bread and kombucha ❤

[@chloew_green]

Current obsession(s) - Georgia Mooney (she's such a talented musician/singer but she's also so funny!! She's a comedian and an artist. So cool) and her albums 'Full Of Moon' and 'Full Of Moon Acoustic'. They're so angelic and beautiful, literally every song is a work of art. HIGHLY recommend. AND her podcast "Fwends" with two other Australian comedians. It makes me genuinely almost pee my pants with laughter and we all need more of that energy in the world

[@mamoonaa79]

M&S is lovely, and they have lovely clothes too, which are really good quality. But they support genocide. I know it’s easy to ignore these things, because we love them, but trust me, the more you learn about it…the more the stuff doesn’t seem so lovely anymore.

[@hlebmaj]

M&S isn't lovely, they support a genocide

[@KerryJames-l6z]

I had porridge breakfast soya coffee and two biscuits afternoon tea dinner chicken curry rice and vegies I feel good today sun is out

[@emma_____________]

If you’re ever in a recipe rut for dinner: All of Meera Sodha’s recipes on the Guardian are absolute bangers! Made her fennel and dill dal yesterday and it’s a definite new fave, also love the aubergine and coconut rice for example
