Your enthusiasm for life is so contagious grace ❤❤

[@tylerj1207]

Hi grace, just wanted to pop in and say you have been a major factor in the zest for life I've felt since 2021. Sometimes, it feels like everyone around me is less excited about the world than I am. While we all have our ups and downs, it's always nice to see someone who shares a genuine gratitude and understanding of what a gift this life is.

[@TS-eo9uf]

Great point!

[@lalalaAli]

I would love to feel more of how you feel 🥲 have you always been this way or was there something that changed your view? If you dont mind me asking of course ❤️

[@jimmyjeopardy]

Grace, you're absolutely killing me calling it Computer Exchange 😂 I swear noone has ever called it that and you explaining how it works omg I'm actually dying 😂 The dinner party looked soooo cute!

[@sharonblythe1]

Grace your error with the "16 piece cutlery set" has just made you even more relatable!! Thats the kind of mistake i make on a daily haaaaa

[@TS-eo9uf]

I'm having a hard day at work today, but hosting a party tonight with a (first-ever for me) homemade charcuterie board!!! I love your excitement and enthusiasm, and it's getting me stoked for this evening!

[@rosielinsey7849]

Hope it went well! ❤️

[@amyschneidhorst1384]

You are so impressive! Catering and hosting for 18 is so very ambitious for a first dinner party! Or 10th dinner party for that matter. 8 is the most I have managed as part of a silent auction.

[@gm4551]

I've just watched your dinner party after recently finding your channel. You did a wonderful job of hosting, very well done to you😊. I love watching all hosting videos and they give me great inspiration for my own, I love the idea of playing a game of some kind. 😁I really hope you will do some more hosting and video them 😊. I completely agree with you about having soft lighting, candles lit and all of the room curtains closed. The gives the room a lovely cosy feel as well as giving you complete privacy from outside! ❤

[@maneskinnnnn7190]

grace explaining cex (computer exchange lol) like its a new thing no one knows about is sending me ahhaah

[@TallulahMorgana]

Saying about cosy with candles, makes me think of a 'Hyacinth Bucket Candle lit supper' from Keeping Up Appearances ❤

[@timtreefrog9646]

Ha ha. "One if my faaamous candle lit suppers"

[@Mackerrooney]

Been waiting for you to host a dinner party for years. So happy for you doing the things you used to talk about doing! ❤❤❤❤

[@hollie531]

That is so sweet 🥲

[@Lashes20032004]

I’m so glad I watched this today! That’s my local shopping centre and I’ve run out of my SPF face cream. Perfect timing knowing you’ve been to that exact one so I’m hoping they still have some in. I got a very similar mattress topper and I love it. My mattress is quite old but I needed something just to extend it a bit longer until I can afford a really decent one. Love watching your vids 🤩

[@jonap5740]

Mold will stain permanently, Grace, but the bleach will soften the black, and destroy the active mold. The problem with mold is that, if present once, it will return until the caulking or grout is removed and replaced. Mold spores are present in the air pretty much forever once it has established itself. We removed our caulking around the tub and redid it. Much better now. Congrats on Adobe sponsorship.

Single flat bed sheets make good table clothes I’ve used them a few times

[@Italiana911]

“Bad breath”. 😂 Grace, you’re so funny. ❤

[@JessieCarty]

Your fruit salad had me thinking of something I did once with a Girl Scout meet-up (we were all in high school). We each brought a fruit and then we mixed them into like a friendship fruit salad. It was SO good. A fun little activity for when you want to have a get together and also prep a bit together.

[@hansybunnys7748]

Fitting 18 in any English house is a feat on its own lol

[@timtreefrog9646]

Unless it is stately home. 😂

[@serenabrent8832]

Lovely vlog Grace, and congrats on your first dinner party. Regarding the mould issue, plenty of ventilation, and make sure you wear a mask and gloves (you don't want to be breathing in mould, not good for your health). If the mould is in the tile grouting, clean out the old grouting and renew with fresh grouting. Warm moist air coming into contact with cold surfaces is the main cause of mould. Try a good strong bleach, also white vinegar is apparently good as well. Maybe consider getting a wall-mounted bathroom extractor fan fitted if you haven't already got one, as this will help to extract any moisture, but please wear a mask when cleaning until you get rid of the mould. Have a great week, and take care. 🙂

[@lauriewilliams2855]

You should never mix bleach and vinegar as this can be a dangerous combination. 😮

[@bethanysinclair4393]

Grace, my boyfriend moved into a new flat recently with black mould in the bathroom! We ended up soaking kitchen roll with bleach and leaving it on the mould like you said, but leave it overnight!! Like a good 9 hours at least and it works a charm!!

[@elliemo10]

Yes! We did this in our bathroom too and it worked perfectly!

[@hollie531]

I do this on mouldy grout! So effective

[@happyfrenchfries]

I've never met you, but oh my goodness you seem like the nicest sweetest person ever!!!

[@timtreefrog9646]

She is ❤

[@Kari_B61ex]

I hosted a Christmas dinner in a house similar to yours for 14 - complete with trestle tables, and hired extra chairs. It was stressful but a success! Congrats on your Dinner Party. I also use a mattress topper.

[@sarahbrunning3917]

Hi Grace, now going to catch up on your videos! Starting with this one as it sounds awesome 🤩 xxx

Ive just started studying a masters in food production in Nottingham its SO fun! We’ve been making and eating chocolate and learning all the science behind it!! im in my element. You should do this course too!

[@jonap5740]

PS You often have to find the source of the mold, which might be on the boards backing the tiles. Big job to replace them. Soap and water works as well as bleach but again, the discoloration will persevere.

[@dinosaurxxxx]

MOLD TIP. Bleach and Vinegar do not kill mold spores. It's best to contact a professional to remedy the issue and also find out whats causing it. It will spread to other rooms if you dont take action early on.

[@lesleyhughes2461]

Hi grace ⭐⭐⭐cillit bang black⭐⭐⭐removes any mould in minutes spray on and the mould magically disappears 😘😘😘💕💕

[@solimarmiranda2226]

Video idea: You should definitely do a video where you purchase/review sponsored content from creators you follow. If there’s a sponsorship section on a KZbin video, an Instagram reel etc

[@HannahMarriott]

Wild to me that you CEX Computer exchange because I've always called it C-E-X! Loved this little vid, girl dinner party was so cuuute

[@Bessie66]

Listening to this while doing dishes in the background and I can here what she’s really into at the mo and I’m thinking “ you pregnant girl!?”

[@nyreehinitt2435]

Thank you for making my day a little brighter every time I watch your videos! 💖

[@lilly6766]

Front sleeper too. Hugging a pillow / half laying on one. Plus a pillow between my knees. Keeps me at a more side position. But it is hard.

[@Anoukkadijk]

This is going to sound silly but attach something like a tennisbal to your chest. This way everytime you will move to sleep on your front it will feel uncomfortable so you move/ wont even sleep like that. This will take some time and some less sleepy nights but it works!

[@tswizzle4eva578]

Today I found out CEX means “computer exchange” 😮

[@rosielinsey7849]

Never heard anyone call it that before!! I was shocked hahaha

Grace i front sleep but only dice February cause I had pneumonia don’t know why but I feel way more comfortable I’m only 5”3” though

[@lisalu3994]

We use cotton wool balls with the bleach, never tried the kitchen roll so can't compare.

do you ever get FOMO from not following the product development career path?

Please be careful with the mold - it can be very dangerous to mix vinegar and bleach together! ❤️

[@JB-vd8bi]

Not can. It is extremely dangerous

Awesome Grace

[@aleksandrrakitin9747]

Hi grace, thank you for the video. I am also, as you said 'front sleeper', I can't sleep any other way except on my stomach. It is not great for you back, yes, however, sleeping on your back is also bad, especially if you're snoring. I was snoring so loud that my flatmates couldn't fall asleep. I went to doctors and they diagnosed me with something called apnoea, it is when one's body tissues block airways and one stop breathing during the sleep and it makes your brain wake up and because you're constantly waking up (but you can't remember it!) the sleep quality decreases drastically. Doctors specifically said it is much worse when you're a back sleeper. Sorry for such a long story, but I never thought than sleep position and snoring can affect one's sleep health and we're here a sharing&caring community, I thought that someone could be interested as well. So, try sleeping on your side if you can, and if you snore loudly or have sleep issues, go see a doctor. I thought that doctors would laugh at me, but they didn't and uncovered something possibly serious!

[@missplacebo]

Hi there, I'm also a front sleeper, I get the best sleep in that position. However, I used to wake up with a sore lower back, until I started sleeping with a pillow under my belly. If you have issue with that, give it a try.

[@aleksandrrakitin9747]
