I Keep Failing

[@TheNorthPrairies]

Maybe my cheeks are thinner today 😂

[@danimatti2002]

I'm not usually a commenter because I watch on tv, but I want to voice this.I've been a silent viewer since 2015 just because I watch on tv. You've been my only friend through losing my dad, battling an ed, ocd, and BPD, and you truly saved my life. Oh sweet Colleen and Erik, I missed this so much. Your podcast and vlogs gives me company and makes me feel like I'm on FaceTime with friends. I'm so happy to see you guys back. I love you both and am SO proud of you Colleen. You're so strong, please never forget through all of this you had and have a whole army of us behind you, and always will. I thought of you everyday since your break and never stopped cheering you on. You my friend are amazing, and so so so loved.

Tips. Double your tomatoes, and throw maybe 4 garlic cloves in the oven with them. Mash them with the tomatoes and cheese :🙂

[@Jess-3]

It’s so cute that Erik stood and listened for a while before clapping that’s so cute❤

[@kelseyburns222]

Are you gonna vomit? Should we order Taco Bell? SENT ME 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@jenniferd6406]

Erik trying to save the pasta was just hilarious 😂😂

[@leoram1991]

Such sweet family Erik is adorably supportive

[@micahwoodard]

I love seeing Erik in the vlogs! I know he's introverted and kinda shy - and so am I, so i get it; but I enjoy him and I love seeing y'all together! Also, Maisy's little Snow White dress is beyond adorable!!

[@thelaurus]

COLLEEN! your hairstyle in this vlog was so cute and suited you so well, you should wear it like that more!

[@KatyWatson173]

GO LIONS!!! Detroit is still vibrating with excitement I live in Southwest Detroit. 🙂🐈🐈‍⬛💖🌈

[@JamesTalksMovies]

Colleen- “Are you gonna vomit? Should we order Taco Bell?” LOL

[@juzkiddin]

Those plants are HUGE! She looks like Alice in wonderland

[@warmbierrachel]

Oh, Colleen. I am a mess of tears. You mentioned thinking of your mom when listening to Sweet Nothing- I am pregnant now after two losses and the thought of my baby boy thinking of me as his safe space has me a blubbering mess in the best way. 💙💙💙

[@kaylaslone5965]

Maisy shouting out ROAR after saying dinosaur while singing about dinosaurs was so cute 🥰

[@iwaiwa]

Colleen.. I swear your reaction to the feta pasta dish was exactly the same as the first time!! 😂

[@iwaiwa]

Also.. I had only tried this trend because you had tried it… lol!

[@katebradford5354]

I’m so glad y’all did the podcast. Gives me so much happiness and life.

[@morganfern29]

8:04 you piano playing is so beautiful. I love it. Keep up the amazing work with everythung you do. I love your vlogs.

[@maryhilbrich2181]

I have never checked for one of your new videos and it was just uploaded 2 minutes ago! I so look forward to your videos! I especially love watching the kids play, laugh, learn! And really excited to watch Relax again! 😊

[@amyash4299]

Love you so much Colleen! I just got my package from donating to the childhood cancer fundraiser and I cried I was so happy I got one! I’ve loved you for so many years now, you’re my favourite human. I hope you never stop sharing your creativity because you’re so inspiring. Love you! 💜

[@rachelthomas4276]

Maisey’s Snow White dress! Adorable 🥰. I love when you cook and talk with us, don’t know why but it’s comforting. TTQ: will you teach the kids to play any instruments?

[@elizabethkoobs1060]

That first song is my favorite TS song. You sounded so pretty! And Maisy Jo singing with the microphone was precious. I'm excited to see your backyard rocks after they're tumbled. You're NOT a failure, Colleen. Please remember that, ok?❤🥰 P.S. I really, REALLY enjoy your rock content. As a little girl in the 60's( I'm old,) I used to LOVE collecting rocks. I even have a huge chunk of granite that I found at Stone Mountain, GA, where I went camping with the Girl Scouts. Love you, Colleen!❤

[@alethea_ly_ha]

Tortilla Talk Question: I’m getting married in March and I’m SUPER excited, but I was just wondering if you had any advice for a newly wed couple or for marriage in general?? I love you so much, Colleen, and I can’t wait to keep seeing you! I missed you a lot💛 (Also, my name is pronounced “uh-leeth-ee-uh” for anyone wondering!😋)

[@lilianatejeda1774]

Colleen thank you for bringing the podcast back! My boyfriend and I love to watch it together as a date night❤

[@shaestevens2545]

Thank you for posting you always make my day❤ love you guys

[@momomarie4097]

Hi Colleen, I think you should watch some of your old quarantine vlogs to reminisce on how crazy that time was and also how much Flynn has grown!

[@cyndykated358]

Your family..your kids..your house…your talent….❤❤

[@haleygonzalez9935]

Tortilla talk: now that all 3 of the kids are talking walking and expressing themselves, which personality traits do you think they have from you and which ones did they get from Erik. Flynn seems like a great mix of you both So happy to have you back in my life

[@Dayna-Punky]

Happy Monday! So happy to be home and chilling!

[@nicolebillips1013]

Not a tortilla talk question, but!! Eric and Colleen’s relationship reminds me of the song “I’ll stand by you” by the pretenders. They both love and support each other so much❤ it’s special and great to see!

[@kalaniana]

You are amazing Colleen! You are doing just fine! Keep your head up and keep on looking forward you got this!

[@Sanflo78]

Oh my gosh Colleen, when you said you were going to make the feta pasta dish from TikTok and you thought you liked it, I was saying no you didn’t, don’t make it. 🙅🏼‍♀️

[@jostanley2126]

Why every time Colleen plays the piano I cry like a big baby . So beautiful 💙💙💙💙💙

[@miagabriella529]

TTQ - Have you ever thought of making Taylor Swift's Chai Tea Sugar Cookies? You should try making them and vlog it!

[@jill3188]

TTQ: hi colleen, i currently work as a patient care technician in the NICU and i’m in my last semester of nursing school and i just wanted to let you know that you were the one who inspired me to become a NICU nurse. i was at one of your shows in Chicago with a little sign i don’t know if you remember… anyway my question is now that your twins are out of the NICU is there anything you wish you could go back and do differently?

[@lyndsayhammond6884]

I love watching you play the piano and sing ❤

[@iamnotendo]

💛 love when you sing! TTQ: where do you get all of your amazing sweatshirts/shirts? You’re adorable!

[@Alex12345alexandra]

Isn't it crazy that Wesley's first present to Flynn when he came home from the NICU, was a monster truck!!

[@kelseyburns222]

I love you so much. You got this. You are an amazing mom. Keep going!!! ❤❤❤❤

[@chrisssyyy226]

maisy singing DINOSAUR and erik eating vomit...i love you guys SO MUCH!!!!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@bonjouritsizzy3405]

oooh I love the new background at the end, very Y O U (:

[@diaryofdaksha]

4:58 I just LOVE this hairstyle on you Colleen!!

[@katelynn90]

Colleen, I love your hair!!! And the style it was in at about 2:29 is soooo cute❤️❤️

[@kels_hoffman]

My husband is also a BK food poisoning survivor! 😂 we haven’t eaten there in almost 15 years because of how traumatized he was 😂😂

[@paige__978]

TTQ: do you ever miss your old house if so what do you miss the most about it? ❤

[@TheNorthPrairies]

Erik trying to say its too salty but not knowing how 😂

[@SheldonMoonsmom2019]

TTQ: what has been Flynn’s favorite rock to find?! Also, Maisy singing warmed my heart! How she gave the microphone to her mama 🥹

[@kristinmcgee6610]

Because of you I see cool rocks everywhere! Costco parking lot, Target sidewalk, in the pavement at work 😂😂😂

[@kittkat7488]

maisy is the sweetest snow white ever!! 🥹 has she seen the movie, or any of the disney princess movies yet? i’m sure she’d definitely appreciate the songs and music as the amazing little performer and princess she is! 🤍

[@xmashymoox]

Omg Erik reacting to the pasta 😂 I’m very pregnant right now so it kinda made me gag but also was hilarious 😂😂😂

[@macseth]

Oh. My. God. I’d watch full vlogs of you playing Taylor on the piano every single day. Perfection. Thanks for that, Colleen! It was so lovely. Great song choices too. Okay now do the rest of her discography 😂

[@emmmzee]

TTQ : How is it that Erik came to be a Lions fan? Does he have family in Michigan? ~ Born and raised Michigander

[@jenn3711]

Who does her friend say she's obsessed with at 8:20? I've played it probably 20 times and can't figure out who she says

[@kaylacross5496]

I love it!!! You play the piano so well! 🥰

[@SheriffofRottingham]

Love the sweatshirt 💖🏝

[@gretchenlancero3008]

TORTILLA TALK QUESTION: Would you consider doing a “cooking with Colleen segment?“

[@totally_not_naomi]

Colleen I’m so glad ur back!! I’ve never been interested in rocks but I think the sections in your videos about rocks are quite interesting!

[@ndama002]

Tortilla talk… I would love to know more about the rock process and what do you do with them. I am glad you are back and working thru like many of us 😊❤

[@desireefazio2699]

❤ hey momma, you are amazing! Love you! Don’t forget you are more than you believe and we all love you and your rocks!!! ❤❤😂😂

[@susanmiller7935]

Colleen you don’t fail at anything. Your amazing. I love when you sing it’s so beautiful. I’m just so glad your back. I missed you all so much.😊

[@雅美水野-d5m]

TTQ: When you have insomnia and can’t sleep, how do you manage the situation?

[@jenniferyoung2564]

I think what Erik is describing is the acidity, that's what comes back up

[@RuthannMcGowan]

Love that recipe so good, quick, and easy. I mix it up by using different flavors of Boursin cheese

[@lisabaldwin2370]

Colleen you and Erik are so great life doesn't always go like we think but it will get better you do so much can not get it all done do not be hard on yourself much love and boy are those cutie pies of yours talking more!

[@sarahpieren7403]

Erik tries to cheer Colleen up at the end of the video because she feels like she failed everything that day. So, cute and romantic.

[@erin723]

HOW do you know the piano part of TS songs?! Is there an app/website? Or are you doing it by ear? Which wouldn’t surprise me. ❤

[@SCK222]

TTQ Please please please tell me where I can buy the black „I Cry A Lot“ hoodie. I love it so much! I see so much Colleen Ballinger merch that’s not actually yours and I don’t want to buy from these people 🥲

[@alicerice8506]

I remember the tictok pasta. We even made it at the hospital I work at. We made it for the staff. It’s so good

[@kateallan8930]

Another wonderful homey comfy vlog. Thanks for sharing and thank you also as today I received the lovely gift bag. I didn’t donate to receive anything & was so happy to be able to fund important research, but I love the thoughtful goody bag.

[@sunmeowlody]

That tiktok pasta with the feta & tomatoes was sooo good, I was just thinking about it too

[@kimurso937]

Colleen, you didn’t fail! Your a mom and I’m here to tell you, you had other things to do. You got this. My grandma always told me honey kids aren’t going to remember a clean house they are going to remember you playing with them you singing, cooking etc enjoys these moments ❤❤

[@MorganWhitney-j4y]

Watching Maisy and her outgoing personality and it has me reflecting on your time as a family with the NICU, wow what an amazing thing she has grown into, a sweet little personality and she loves her momma so much, it’s super evident when she’s talking with you in these videos. ❤❤❤

[@TheNorthPrairies]

WE STAN UNEDITED COLLEEEEEN ❤

[@lisamichelle2596]

Hi Colleen. 😊 I still make your chicken casserole recipe from way back when!!! It’s so yummy!! Keep trying recipes to show us when you can. It’s so fun and inspiring!

[@Cammytheswiftie]

TTQ: first of all, you’re such a good singer, but next is, do you have a bin of just all of yours, tumbled rocks, and if you do, can you show it to us love you❤❤

[@ravenrichards3639]

I've never made a comment on KZbin before, I've always been a little anxious too but I feel like I should tell you this. I have loved crystals and rocks since childhood and seeing them be so healing for you has been a joy to watch. I had a pretty rough year too and it's really inspirational to see you back and you have given me hope and courage to not give up. I guess I just wanted to say watching your vlogs and your joy and curiosity discovering your new hobby has been healing for me and I just wanted to say thank you. TTQ: I would love to send you some rocks from where I live as we have a lot here. Would it be alright to send you some in your P O box, or is that something you would be interested in. I figured it's a small way I could thank you. Love and Light to you and your beautiful family ( sorry my comment is so long)

[@sharonmendel]

Tortilla talk question: Since Maisy is so talkative and expressive I think that she would really enjoy listening to a clip of you singing “My Party Dress” From Henry and the Mudge! I remember watching you perform this live and I think that your kids would love listening to it! especially Maisy!

[@themomandthemaverick]

I am racing to catch up with your videos. I am a firm believer in binge watching until I am current when I start (or in your case restart) watching. I'm getting there. Ps I am currently sick and getting reacquainted with you in a multi day binge session. I can't wait to comment on current rock videos. So I know whether you already have learned so I'm not commenting on questions I know the answer to but a month or two late. That would be annoying especially if you have already shared how you have improved on what you doing and stuff like that. I hope you get what I mean.😵‍💫 LOL. I was sort of thinking of the drilling when I was ranting all this. Since Knew the answer when I saw you first mention it and was glad I hadn't commented since in a later video you talked about doing this and have been showing your progress. I drill rocks and it is a definite process!!

[@jenniferwills1217]

Does anyone know what that giant plant behind Colleen is? The part where she's bending down collecting rocks in her yard..

[@Sadiee_Edmundss]

Love your videossss Colleen ❤️❤️❤️

[@erwinignacio6453]

Good early and rainy evening Colleen! Love being outside; I am liking your podcasts. I have a rock garden in my backyard. Nice voice! I like when you cook or bake things.

[@bevy601]

TTQ: You mentioned when you first moved in that your house was over 100 yrs old. Have you looked into the original homeowner? 🤓 Could they be the ghost. I feel they were into music like you.

[@mmaarr743]

TTQ: can you talk about your kids different personality? Their likes and dislike. Thank you love your vlogs ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@sarahpieren7403]

TTQ: Colleen, do have any tips to calm down for panic attacks because I have some on a regular basis? Also, do have tips for anxiety?

[@TheNorthPrairies]

Those giant agaves are INSANE!!! 👌🏼🔥😍

[@jessicamariano740]

DONT USE FETA!! used herb and garlic boursin cheese!!! Tastes so much better!!

[@nakiasutton6552]

If you never failed, you would never be inspired to improve! Also.. I am hungry now.. Tortilla Talk.. did you ever make the giant recipe book from Covid or just collect recipes... ?

[@bettyslawinski8265]

Beautiful backyard rocks 💛💛💛💛💛

[@maybeme8]

I feel like that recipe would be good with half the amount of feta and half a thing of cream cheese and maybe a little mozzarella in there too.

[@katsact5140]

Love this video. So good your back

[@TLC90179]

Just came to say that your hair looks absolutely adorable like that!

[@laurenschenck5355]

Love you queen you are never a failure you do your best amazing inspiring best mom wife LUV U ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@santinapope3072]

TTQ: what’s your favourite show you’re watching right now??

[@karenkane3220]

I love hearing the twins talk!

[@xoeilish]

TTQ- if u ever stop liking taylor swift, who would u move on to?

[@Cinnamon111]

I was laughing so hard at Erik eating the feta pasta 😂

[@Magencory17]

That’s WIIIIIILD! Just YESTERDAY I said to my husband and kiddos “do you guys remember the Covid viral Tik tok pasta!? We need to make that again!” Well, I’m getting the ingredients this week and making it also! Great minds think alike, Colleen!

[@andiehelfman3515]

Seeing Flynn Wesley and Maisie all walk out into your dining room together made me so emotional. They just looked so old and independent and it made me realize how much they have grown and how long I have been watching. I remember when Flynn was just a little baby and now he is an actual kid🥹!!!❤❤❤

[@alishaplumb9315]

Is that a giant aloe Vera plant behind you at 13:28??? What the actual heck??? I didn’t know they could get that big! It looks like a plant from the Dino times!!!!😮

[@cierrablue]

When you record the podcast could you please include your "relax" for the week? I miss that.

[@saraboutin2210]

It’s part of life young lady!
