Hello, and thank you so much for watching this video! This is MONTHS in the making and days upon days of work have gone into this. I hope you enjoy it, find it interesting, and learn something new. I LOVED researching for and creating this video and cannot wait to film more videos like this in the future.

I think it would be great to see how a birthday party was, for different ages and maybe around Christmas you could do how they spent Christmas Day

[@RubyGranger8]

Oh yes! So interesting!!!

[@willowgracedancer08]

Yas!!!

[@ShinKyuubi]

I'd be down for that. There's a historic farm in my state that does tours of the grounds and old home as well as various events through the year, they talk about Victorian era Christmas tradions in December on the weekends and dress up in 1870's style cloths. It happens late in the evening so guest get hot cocoa and there's live music and stuff.

[@axuu8942]

[@lucieleairth]

I love how Ruby's videos bring so many generations together ^^

[@lisadevries1099]

Oh my gosh I just had a vision of you in the future presenting historical documentaries on the victorian period. Walking through the country side and little villages and talking to the camera about all sorts of topics. PS: Your hair looks amazing, this style looks absolutely beautiful on you!

I DID TOO OMG

[@abigailviolet6460]

I thought so too!!!!

Can you make a series- "afternoon tea with ruby" where you could discuss about many things... that would be so fun to watch I think ..

[@xchurricane]

Yes!! I would watch this!!

[@goodguy7416]

I would adore this!!! It would be wonderful if they were both pre-recorded and live streams!!!

[@annas.7710]

Amazing idea! Hope Ruby will like it too.

[@beb7860]

[@lotteg7508]

This was honestly way more interesting than I expected! Didn't know there was so much to learn about Victorian tea time :) Great video Ruby!

[@goodguy7416]

This is one of my favorite videos that you have ever made!! It seems like you had a lot of fun making it and it turned out so beautifully!! As for video ideas, here are a few of my suggestions: - Victorian Inspired Look Book -Victorian Inspired Paint With Me (if you enjoy art :) ) - Victorian Study With Me - The Influence that the Victorian Period has upon Dark Academia -Victorian Book Read-a-thon -Victorian Letter Writing -Victorian Day in the Countryside - Victorian Inspired Room Tour If I have more ideas later I will update you! :D

[@uma_kageyama]

Ruby is the main character and we are just living in her world. loved this video so much ruby , if my friends started asking me why I am suddenly inviting everyone to drink together I am just gonna show this video to them.

[@MaddieCassidy]

the way your family participates in your videos warms my heart 💌

[@pamelapoet9]

Thank you for all of the effort and creativity your put into this. It is a treat to watch.

[@ewatokarz577]

As a person who has been watching your videos for more than 4 years, I must say that this is so far the best video that you've made. I can really see your passion, the fact that you incorporate a lot of history education (and you give us sources) is amazing.

[@UnsightlyThinker]

Loved this video - thank you for letting us appreciate the fine art and adorable quaintness of Victorian Afternoon Tea with you! Fun fact: the concept of tea (or cha) actually originated in Ancient China, and was only brought to the UK during the mid-17th Century. It is both fascinating and rather amusing to think of how synonymous tea has become with English culture, since its roots are really not very English at all! Even so, it has become an absolute staple in our lives here in the UK, as well as in so many amazing cultures across the globe. I myself am an avid chai enthusiast, and would highly recommend that everyone should try authentically-brewed karak chai at least once in their lives!

[@cazzyb]

I love to see the path that this channel has taken over the years! so glad to see you making videos on topics you love :) xx

[@happynameday]

Ruby, I can just see how much work you put into this video and how excited about it you were! It’s so delightful, bravo!

[@PlanetImo]

LOVE that writing block! We have one similar in our family, somewhere, that's been passed down the generations.

[@arielmarie8493]

Your videos are always so calming to watch

[@insanelyawesam1420]

I’m sure Ruby’s friends are really lucky! They might get to do all these fun stuff with her. How I wish I knew Ruby in real life! This video is aesthetically pleasing and soothes my senses. 😌

[@natasham4184]

This is such a lovely (and interesting) video! I really appreciate the effort you put into it 💖

[@carolhodson6353]

Ruby I love it when you do this and great fun your mum joining in.

[@lise.337]

I love these videos so much! They are so informative and fun to watch!

[@ayellowpapercrown6750]

That was super interesting to watch! As someone who still regularly attends and host tea parties because it’s part of my culture (I’m a Sephardic French jew! Tea parties are a shabbos afternoon activity) it was very interesting to compare how Victorians did it VS how we do it. I’ll probably borrow some of these Victorian recipes for next Saturday!

[@Kian_Tamblyn]

watching now during the premier and so far i'm loving it ruby!!

[@mcarolinagodinho]

This video is so aesthetically pleasing to watch and very interesting, as usual. Thanks for sharing Ruby :)
