"it's a crumpet, innit?" i love british people

[@joannamb8716]

I will probably never buy a subscription box but I am LOVING these videos. It's like I'm living vicariously through you ☺

A little tip for hotel chocolat hot chocolate without the velvetiser: get a little hand held milk frother from Tiger (it costs about £5, and looks like a tiny electric whisk). When you make the chocolate, put your milk and chocolate in a pot on the stove on low heat, and keep mixing it with the frother until it’s ready. The frother helps the chocolate melt so it’s not bitty, makes it really smooth and creates a delicious thick foam on top, and it is a fraction of the price of the velvetiser!

The Liberty box should arrive mid January. You pay £20 a month and that adds up in your Liberty account. You can spend this in anything and get free postage and you don't have to spend it all at once. Then you get 4 boxes a year basically free, with stuff to try. I love it.

[@missesAnnCooper]

Thanks for the info I will subscribe to Liberty.

[@LeonardoDiCapri-Sun]

The wonky baked goods is a brilliant idea! You hear a lot about wonky veg but not so much bakery stuff

[@Kaspleen]

Something that I like about Love Cocoa is that the guy who runs the company is the great great great grandson of the original Cadbury. After Cadburys we’re taken over by Kraft (and changed) he decided to go back into the family business - chocolate.

[@Medcanuk]

He was on dragons den

[@Owlsandoatmeal]

It's great to see you back, Grace! We were getting a little worried about you and your family. I hope you're all doing well and had a lovely Christmas!

[@bethrientoul2471]

Scrawlrbox is a pretty good art sub box, it varies a lot every month but you always get enough stuff in the box to create a cohesive art piece without using a bunch of other art supplies too

[@ellexpress111]

So lovely to see you Grace and we missed you. But, family and friends and looking after things at your end must come first. We appreciate all you give to both channels, but want whats best for you, always. Happy New Year.

[@PurplePatch2]

Yay! Nice to see you again! Hope you had a nice Christmas? I really wanted to see the Booth Christmas but am just pleased you’re here again 😘

[@rosielinsey7849]

That wonky baked goods one looks so good wtf I’d eat all of those things

[@notmycat2097]

I get them and they’re so good. The crumpets are the best!

[@almavogler]

Yes! That's the only one I'd subscribe to without hesitation.

[@LC-le9ew]

I was addicted to subscription boxes a few years ago thanks to KZbin videos! I really love the ones with treats from around the world! I finally discontinued all of them but now I want to start one again.

[@rosenewton4482]

Definitely looking in to the Earth and Wheat one ❤️ you're my comfort watching at the moment and in January in particular it's very appreciated. Thanks for being a joy 😊

[@rebekahnicol5799]

Sooo happy you’re back! And sending you all the love in the world. Treat yourself well lovely 💜

[@emmajones1745]

The Liberty London one will come mid January. You pay £20 a month and then the £20 goes in to your beauty bank you can save up the vouchers or spend as you get them. I am saving mine for the beauty advent calendar at Christmas. Then you get a free box of goodies every 3 months. Mid Jan, mid April, mid July and mid October xx

[@dianebaker5243]

Cool👍

[@zenabraithwaite1934]

I love mine, you get free postage with it too.

[@newportjente]

Such a nice surprise to see you back. Hope you and your family had a wonderful Christmas holiday🎄❤️🎄

[@Emily-ej4xf]

i worked at hotel choc a while back, we would tell people who wanted hot choc without a velvetiser to mix it into a pan of milk and heat it on the hob! the hot chocolate we sold in the cafe wasn't made with the velvetiser, but in a steel jug with milk using the steam nozzle on the coffee machine - but microwaving it will probs make it very gritty so give it a try on the hob if you're wanting to try this out!

[@charmainex2598]

The chocolate smiths for sure!! A little pricey but you get exclusive chocolate each month and exclusive content!

[@Melissa-fz9tk]

Happy to see you back!! Praying you and the family are doing well!😊❤

I’ve missed your content so much! So glad your back ❤

I LOVE LOVE LOVE these videos, I’m always looking at subscription boxes! I’ve had a couple of the papergang boxes and it was INCREDIBLE, so so much better than the one you received which is so sad!

So great to see a new video! I hope you and the fam are well. Sending hugs!

[@alexanderschwarm7755]

I always get excited when you upload a new video 💕I really enjoyed this one and it made me lagh so much 😄thank you Grackle I can"t wait until the next one ❤

[@sarahbrunning3917]

Yay your back! Have missed you hun. Nice to see you back 😊🎉❤

[@FlapjackR]

Grace, I heard you say recently that Mama Booth accidentally killed your sourdough starter. I actually preserved some of mine in powder form at the beginning of December and would happily part with a bag for your sake. It’s all organic and works wonderfully. I make a loaf almost daily with it. I know you can buy starter online but I have some if you want it. Let me know. 😊

[@tswizzle4eva578]

First video of the year! Looking forward to another year of bangin content 🎉

[@sophie12388]

I have the liberty one and it comes every 2 months and then the £20 gets added to a pot each month. It’s very useful for trying products and the voucher can be spent on anything in store/online

[@rixt135]

Love all your videos! Also, video idea: I’ve recently been climbing and bouldering and it’s so much fun (it’s like a puzzle to see where you need to place your feet and hands to reach the top), maybe you could try it out. Similar to your last series of trying different activities!

[@GreenBananaz]

Missed you! Happy New Year 🎉 Just about to sit and eat, perfect timing 🫶🏻

Perfect video to watch with my latte in my Central Perk Friends mug- reminded me of you!

[@catwink13]

Thank you for the Earth and Wheat review. I'd heard great things about them before but seeing this vid just confirmed that I needed a monthly subscription from them in my life!

[@emilyknight9962]

Missed you lovely girl !! Hope you had a beaut festive period ❤xx

[@simplydebby2530]

I am fascinated by subscription boxes. I get the Color Street one now. This year I searched for interesting Advent calendars. I found the jam one that you got & decided to get it this year. We enjoyed it! Hope you & your family have been well. Missed your videos!! 💜💜

[@naominicol8713]

Love these videos!! I recommend the chocolate smiths subscription boxes!! Small business and they really make the boxes special! 😄 x

[@NinaRibena10]

So glad to see you back and hope all is well? A book subscription sounds good as I am always looking for new books to read

[@amycameron7130]

If you want a chocolate box try The Chocolate Smiths! They're a small business from Newcastle, they have a monthly box and every month is a different theme (the chocolate flavours are exclusive to the box too :) )

[@lucianaamelia1]

I second this! I just ended it due to money reasons but they are all phenomenal x

[@KatieMeehan]

I second this!!

[@ginganinja93]

Ahhh I'm so glad you did Earth & Wheat and to see so much love for it in the comments!! Absolutely one of my fave companies, we just can nevermake use of the bread! They are releasing new ones over time though! I always try them 🤣🤣

[@camibabyy]

A couple boxes that I'd also like to see: ipsy makeup and breo box !! Love u Grack

I used to have a subscriptiom for kiwico for toys and book for my son. They also have adult subscription crates, like the maker crate that is all about arts and crafts for ages 14-100. They are a great company, if you really want to try an artsy subscription. Their crates make awesome gifts for all ages

[@elliebelly2294]

You definitely need the velvetiser. Got one when they first came out and haven’t looked back since !

[@Tiredmum]

So glad you mentioned earth and wheat. It is a fab box

[@taraa985]

artful is a great art subscription box, it has really good quality art supplies! 💕

[@sheemapatel]

I've been loving the positive teacher company subscription box... Would love to see what the teachers in your family think.

[@flockandsquawk]

The bread one sounds like it would be really nice to get. They looked perfectly good to me, it reminds me of imperfect foods boxes!

[@emilystreetman1257]

Nice to see you back! Was starting to worry you were leaving KZbin 🙁 hope you had a wonderful break!

[@jennyowen6006]

for the art subscription box i recommend scrawlr box! u get really good quality items and prompts as well as sweets

[@terichewbaccazulu5908]

regarding the hot chocolate, I find making on the stove top instead of the microwave works best when real chocolate bits are involved

[@charlieyep4646]

glad you're well grack! congratulations on your engagement

[@charlottem7025]

For the hotel chocolat hot chocolate sachets you can make them in a pan! You just need to heat a bit of milk, add the chocolate and more milk and whisk constantly. That’s how I made mine without a velvetiser and they were great :)

[@evealicesmith5435]

so happy to have your videos back, always such chilled and heartwarming content 💕

[@zoeswann]

The Calligraphy Box is a really lovely creative subscription! Each box has a lesson and exercises to help you learn different calligraphy styles ❤️

[@AmberWilkes]

I find the velvetiser hot chocolates are really good when doing them on the stove, not tried the microwave!

Please try the Blurt Foundation's BuddyBox! They do monthly boxes for mental health or a pick-me-up, and they were so nice to receive during dark days! Usually a self-care bit, a candle or bath product, a craft, and a sweet little zine.

Yes. Buddybox is so nice!

i know of a few art subscription boxes, but the one that came straight to my head was one called scrawlr box! they are a very cool brand and i would definitely consider checking them out!

[@jamiekavanagh7987]

Glad to see. You have missed ya happy new year 🎊

[@GottaGoToMoYouKnow]

A great subscription box is Dog and Hat who do a coffee subscription box! I know you're not overly keen on coffee but if you know someone who loves speciality coffee, then it's such a great box to gift!!

[@katie0921]

SHES BACK 😁😁😁

[@pastelvampire9515]

I love your "oodie" in this video! I don't know if that's what yours is officially called but I have a pink one with tweety bird on it and it is the most comfortable thing I own! Wwere did you get yours? The pattern is SO CUTE!

[@charlottedennison5019]

You HAVE TO TRY the Harry and David fruit subscription! They mail seasonal fruit to you that is insanely high quality. My parents get it and I always steal it from them. + the perfect gift to anyone!!

Try stripe and stare for pants - they are so comfy and eco friendly!!

[@lesleymoreland9629]

Artful is worth looking at for an art box subscription. They are quarterly and you can buy earlier boxes without a subscription. More expensive but great value and comprehensive information and support. Good luck!

[@fudgeralph]

I used to have the papergang subscription and sometimes the stuff were amazing and really beautiful and sometimes it just looked like leftover stuff they couldn’t sell.

[@carolashton8543]

😁 this was great deli box was my favorite and now I know how to make hot chocolate creamy! Vevetizer

[@Maike68]

I used to get the Papergang box for a few months like 2 years ago? It was really cool because each month a different artist designs it and there were some really nice things in there. And if I didn't like the design I'd just gift it to someone who would 😊

[@emmarogers7070]

You need to try The Chocolate Cafe subscription box😍 they do the best chocolate!

[@charlottem7025]

If you make another one of these videos you should do a price comparison to see if it’s cheaper to buy individually or as part of the subscription!

[@chloelouiserice8966]

Lakeland £60 milk frother is a perfect dupe for the velvetiser and does more than the velvetiser for nearly half the price ☺️

[@mariamfaisal7528]

WE HAVE MISSED YOUUUUUU

[@Leahvilliers99]

I used to do snack crate subscrption which is good for adventurous eaters which I am not haha but dud try some new things from all over the world. It was a US subscription though so was about a month behind due to shipping across seas

[@lauren-kd1jv]

Will you be posting your Christmas day vlog? 😊 loved this vid as always!!

[@life_breakdown]

Liberty box you have to sign up for a 3-month period at least (so £60) the £20 goes into a voucher which you can spend on their website. Every 3 months they sent out a box as well, the next one is due in January. So if you subbed in December, you will get January's box :). If you don't like it remember to cancel before the next 3 month cycle begins.

[@kanganoroo3849]

Most I would probably buy once, not as an ongoing subscription, with exception of the bakery box. How could you go wrong with bread or other baked goods? Scent by Mail would be lovely to get at the change of seasons.

[@Melpomium]

I feel so upset about the stationary one. The things you got were cute, but like you said they could have done so much more with it! The deli one was definitely the best. They understood the assignment!

[@RishabhSingh20]

You can make travel vlogs, like you made of Cornwall, if I am not wrong. Show Edinburgh, Glasgow, Scottish Highlands, Wales, Northern Ireland, English Countryside and Historic English Castles. Like Jack Whitehall did in the last season of TRAVELS WITH MY FATHER. Now that you're engaged, you can travel with Mr X or your friends, even your mum and papa.
