[@krissyk354]

Headed to the beach this Sunday. Take some pics and probably read my book 😅 On Saturday just relaxing at home 🤗

[@MyPinkMundo]

Girlll!!! We do not mind long vlogs at all.... if you ask me, the longer the better! And that picture your dad sent you is sooo cute. You need to print the marathon one and put it on your wall in your office. Fill that wall with great memories in the form of pictures. Also those paintings are ADORABLE YOU ARE SOOO GOOD!!!!!!!!

[@Lientje-1208]

Yess long vlogs are THE BEST

[@knguyen999]

[@imtaramichelle]

it's the best hahaha

[@reeroh304]

"these paintings aren't bad"... *proceeds to show REALLY GOOD ART*

[@malappl7]

Girl thinks she’s just ok… TARA do you know how hard it is to master water color?! Girl you ARE an artist! 👩‍🎨

[@imtaramichelle]

Watercolor is SO HARD, I def have a longggg way to go, but I appreciate your kindness!!!

[@2elexis]

girl can draw and paint! Realism is so hard and pretty much nailed it

[@notnichole3296]

i lowkey feel like mystery man has lead to you being more creative with your cooking!! i’ve been loving the different recipes lately 😍

[@jamierenae3833]

Brady was definitely saying I love you!!! ❤️ OMG I love Brady….the hands to paw & her showing you her turf!

[@RootedTreeWellness]

20:41 mumma reads comments!!! HI MUMMAA. BIGGEST FAN HERE! 👋 y’all raised a very grounded individual ❤

[@tcr1130]

For picture nights...would be cool to draw something that reminds you of each vaca you take, pick one thing,, a scene, a flower, a fancy meal u loved, a tropical drink, somethg u "sight" saw...anything that reminds you of each vaca...could frame them, add to your vaca diary, or leave in a photo book...it's amazing how quickly we forget those little details that caught our eye on a vaca

[@tcr1130]

I lost my "heart" from tara, foe editing a typo.. 😭😥

[@katemckinnon5866]

I paint myself, used to be in watercolour, now I do mostly acrylic. You’re a painter, those are frameable..not a word, but works. Lean them on your floating shelves in kitchen. Chef’s kiss.

[@deenimcsweeney6748]

I need more vlogs with Mitch and your mom! I love what good parents you have and it is nice to see.

[@golfaholics7777]

As a 51 year old, with a 28 year old daughter, I understand your dad wanting to drive you home to spend time with you! :) time is precious, let them do it and cherish it!! ❤❤

[@mallorymorrison4001]

For sure get a bar cart. They're great for when you have company over and look cute, too.

[@dmbalint1997]

You're truly glowing! These past few or so vlogs you seem so much more happy and that makes me happy! Happy a great weekend with your family!

[@shilohswensk1]

I hope you know that you are my absolute favorite KZbinr! You inspire me in so many ways and I just want to say thank you for that 🤍

[@imtaramichelle]

Love you!!!!! 🌸

[@noreenc1192]

I smile the whole time Brady is in the vlogs! ❤ Love that the whole fam is going to celebrate your grandparents anniversary - so special! Looking forward to more home content and seeing the fam - and to more backyard work with Mitch! The turf looks awesome at their house! Love the paws in by Brady - she’s such a smart girl!

[@hannahgracestudios]

Tara!! Your watercolour paintings are BEAUTIFUL girl!! 🤩 you’re totally right, being creative is so good for our well being and truly that is the point of it all. But girl. Don’t sell yourself short! ❤❤ have a great weekend Tara!

[@moxiejeane]

Tara, you’re too modest. Those paintings are AMAZING. All the little paintings I’ve seen you do I’m always blown away 🖤 I love this new painting era you’re in!

[@alexusenloe6994]

The pastry moment had me laughing out loud. I hope it was tasty! Also your paintings are so good! Watercolor takes skill! Plants/greenery for a painting theme! 🪴

[@Izzyhoule]

You’ve inspired me to start running and now I have a running club and feeling so happy!! You’ve also made me fall back in love with reading over the last year which has been amazing :)

[@Cruiztina]

I also cannot stand the mush of overnight oats and recently I was introduced to making a baked oatmeal instead! And then you can store it in the fridge and heat pieces up in the morning. Still soft but not mushy, absolute game changer!

[@eerinoneil]

Omg these paintings!!! They look amazing!

[@StephieOmbre]

the best parts of the vlog is when Bradey is in them we love bubbas

[@virginiakrueger4780]

I love how excited you get when the flavor is hitting.

[@alexyisdyckman749]

I LOVE overnight oats and I’m SO picky with breakfast foods. I normally do: 1 cup of rolled oats 1 cup of coconut milk Half a container of silk almond milk yogurt (I like the chocolate or vanilla) Chia seeds (I think I do about a tablespoon) Honey, brown sugar, cinnamon to top it or peanut butter and top it with fruit I use a lot of berries! I add all the toppings on the next morning if you try again!

[@JDLFN]

I do love the vlogs like this. I'm so happy when you spent time with your family, only few vloggers does that. ❤

[@venusbucci4829]

I love the coffee paintings ❤️ I bet it’s relaxing to paint

[@reneeboronka]

I love that you did the paw challenge with Brady! Perfection ❤

[@amyhardwick8153]

Girl, my jaw when I saw your paintings! That's so impressive. I mean I've seen that martini you did and that was soo good. How about painting something from your house? Like a vase with the twigs? Or the sun coming through the windows? Or just sunsets?

[@vickiemouse2359]

Such a wonderful few days with family!! I really enjoy your creativity!! Blessings to you and your fantastic family🌸♥️

[@takeemakotanen4780]

What Tara these paintings are gorgeous I can see your own art style blooming beautifully. So keep up the great work you are now becoming a true artist. Ignore the negativity that I know can be spewed on the internet. You got me wanting to paint and get back into my artistic side of my personality. Although I fear I may have lost that part . For these past few years so thank you Tara!❤❤

[@samanthaferraro1454]

From one Canadian to another..thank you for the amazing content..i look forward to your vlogs and youve truly inspired me❤

[@BluexxBeauty98]

Uh excuse me you are TALENTED! Your watercolor paintings were so cute!

[@ericayoder2436]

Tara those paintings are AMAZING and I would in a heartbeat purchase those as digital downloads to put in my kitchen.

[@imtaramichelle]

That is very kind of you to say 🥹

[@reneeboronka]

My eyes just about popped out of my head when you revealed your water color paintings 😮 Wowza! You are so multi talented! 💗

[@CrazyCuckooBird]

You should paint different flowers of the season. They always look stunning in watercolor.

[@sheilagiles3333]

Tara, you’re very talented. Your paintings on coffee, I can almost taste it and the aroma is delicious. Thank you.🧡🧡🧡🧡

[@kayteecee9748]

Omg I’m so excited about the veggie soup dumplings!! I hadn’t heard about them!

[@laurence9042]

[@sophiacastellanos3195]

You’re the first KZbinr I started watching in 8th grade and now I’m going into my third year of college!! Just wanted to say thank you for your videos they helped me get through COVID, high school, and the transition of living away from home to go to college! Love ya 🩷🩷

[@imtaramichelle]

thank you for being here!!!! 🩷🩷

[@KMBOLLMAN91]

Tara with the TikTok dog hands trend 😂 love it!

[@angeltucker9749]

I love your vlogs so much!! And so happy that you’re thriving and happy!! Could we have an update on your hair vitamin pods? 🥰

[@dianalewis8147]

Ouuuhh! I love watercolour painting leaves, like different types of greenery

[@stacierd7414]

The most comforting KZbinr 🫶

[@suerescino3218]

Ok your painting is amazing!!! Love the skirts and striped shirt!!! Bailey is so cute! Love her!!!!

[@jessicaallen7604]

Leading up to the new year, I decluttered every room in my house. It has helped sooooo much. I still have more to do, but we had 20 bags of donations in a 2 bedroom 1 bath apartment. 🫣 We have lived at our apartment for 5 years and it got to an overwhelming point. I honestly am always so inspired by your videos, especially the new year vlogs. My goals are to keep my place cleaner. Make healthier choices( drink less, healthier foods, zero sugar soda/less soda). Remember my meds and supplements because as a chronically ill girly, that only hurts me 😂. Choose hobbies over screen time (videogames, coloring, reading). I also just want to push myself out of my comfort zone more. Oh, and better sleep. Its a lot, but even if i only do one of those things, my life will be better for it. Happy new year, Tara and Happy Birthday!!! 🎉❤

[@Lily_Autumn]

Omg, Bradeyyy!! 😭💓 She is the cutest, I cannot deal! 💞

[@_annaclairee]

the paintings are SO good girl- keep going! love this hobby for u

[@kimmhclouthier2594]

Really liked your paintings Tara, it’s such a peaceful pastime.

[@elsaskoog5197]

I’ve always had an inkling that i’d end up living in Toronto(I live in Sweden atm), and ever since you moved back it’s just felt stronger and stronger🤍 I love watching your vlogs and imagine myself living a similar life to you You’re my comfort company🤍

[@Cmars_8739]

I’m obsessed with the striped sweater!!

[@Levannalopez1]

Do a floral water paint theme!! Your coffee ones looked beautiful btw! 🤩

[@annacaplette]

yes floral would be so cute!!

[@JennieSneddon-ib2fm]

So.Tara, you’re beautiful inside and out, can most definitely cook, creative (great,little, watercolors by the way), successful, kind hearted and look great in all your outfits. I’ve said it before, he’s a, very, lucky young man. Makes me smile for you. 😊💕

[@beckyvandergriff4155]

Great painting! Such a good job! Just paint what you are feeling at the time. Brady is so stinking cute!

[@petro3441]

Congrats to your grandparents with the anniversary and enjoy the family time🎉🎉🎉

[@monicabautista2256]

girlll those paintings are stunning!!Omg

[@jazminecruz666]

You did an incredilbe job as the MOH! Everything looked amazing!

[@kleith]

I always look forward to your vlogs! Random but love your moms little green entry bench 😂

[@emilyjkooi]

Your water color painting is amazing!! I 2nd the floral theme or like beachy theme! Have a great weekend in Montreal!

[@krissyk354]

The paintings look great girl! Don’t beat yourself up! Water colour takes time and a lot of patience! Take it from someone who used to paint in high school 😅 One tip of advice - add the base in water colour and then go for a second layer with acrylic. Give the painting more depth. It’ll be hard to add water over water especially when it’s drying.

[@ginnasojo413]

Tara I LOVE your paintings!!! They are amazing ❤

[@jalyassin]

Wait, what?! Tara your paintings are amazing 😻 good job you ❤

[@bekahw1509]

Maybe a theme of painting the views from past places you’ve lived? Still remember those stunning sunsets and storms from your Canada apartment :)

[@imtaramichelle]

Love love love this idea!!!

[@michellexobelle]

I love Mondays too because I am off work Mondays, so you're not alone Tara!

[@isabelladavis21]

Im obsessed with that nail color! Im going to London and Paris in a few weeks and that is perfect! Definitely going to copy you!!!!

[@budgetwithana]

Since it’s on theme with the croissants you got from Door Dash I would say the next painting theme should absolutely be ✨ pastries ✨!!

[@Erinwotton337]

Great vlog Tara

[@DoJiKi]

I already love your vlogs, but Brady makes it a little more special. ❤

[@ayanasigloch8137]

"Not the best"? your paintings are beautiful. you have a gift even if its for fun. I can paint like a stick figures lol. For painting themes maybe since it's summer you can do summer themed ones. like: lemons, flowers, travel etc. p.s. I love watching your videos. Great down time as a momma of two boys. enjoy your family time and say safe

[@sabrinadarnell1019]

I love eating leftovers. Also, it helps because it's a meal you dont have to worry about the next day or so.

[@RedHeadNdProud]

I love overnight oats, but I’ve never put yogurt in them. I use the quick oats, oat milk and a splash of whatever coffee creamer I’m obsessed with (right now it’s a Cinnabon one) and something like cinnamon or fruit to go on top and make it fun. Since they were too creamy for you, try making them right before bed instead! It’s what I do and they have more texture come morning, less time for them to soften that way!

[@MariLynn1816]

Im not an oatmeal girl either. When i do eat it, i have to add toppings, lol .. For overnight oats I do overnight apple pie oats, which is a similar base for the oats you did( i use regular oats not quick and dont have issues with texture) , and then before i eat them, i add apples, cinnmon, walnuts, a drizzle of maple syrup and a sprinkle of brown sugar. So good! You can also cook the apples in cinnmon and brown sugar and then add it to the oats before you eat them 😊

[@Navarrobrooke]

Water coloring sounds like a peaceful little activity🖌️

[@fannybernier5638]

I’m drinking strawberry matcha again, because of you 😂 such a good option for summer!!❤❤

[@debbiegaley2331]

Tara, my gosh that painting is beautiful!!!

[@Queenpezz]

That mid skirt looks very Paris ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Great update!!! Have an amazing weekend ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@mariajoaoalegre4455]

There is no such thing as a too long vlog from Tara! 🥰

[@maryellenmccann9585]

Your watercolor painting was very good! You have artist skills! I want to be able to do that too. I have some skills but don’t give myself time to do those things.

[@coleXoxo8]

Your mom is so chic. I love her style 🤎

[@_annaclairee]

a tip for the overnight oats- def the quick oats made it mushy, but also the chia seeds could contribute to that! I love chia seeds in a smoothie but chia pudding is my nightmare, I imagine it was oats + that texture and that sounds REVOLTING. also fruit and and a low sugar granola will def help!!!

[@KeishaAbbott]

That striped button up is EVERYTHING. It's giving ✨expensive ✨

[@oliviahurst1229]

HACK FOR THE BRAIDS: (Or at least something I figured out for myself) When I do double braids I use the small clear bands to tie them because the regular hair ties are too thick for the ends of my hair and it has really made a difference in how they look to me! Might be worth a try if you want to keep ~dabbling~ with the braids for annoying hair days!

[@kimberlycohen8562]

Love a gin martini and your dog is so so incredibly adorable love your shopping items totally inspired I'm going to Zara and mango. In your paintings are amazing

[@karenbingham5763]

Who knew Tara wouldn't be able to take just one little bite of the pastry, lol. How could anyone resist? I know I couldn't .

[@imtaramichelle]

soooo good hahaha

[@ashleighkucharski8165]

Watercolor theme that may be fun could be birth month flowers/fav flowers of friends and family

[@purplepeople9298]

Tara the blue candle would look nice on your kitchen shelf’s

[@imtaramichelle]

Omg yesss!

[@krissyk354]

Happy Friday Tara! Have a fun trip to Montreal. Wishing your grandparents a happy 60th anniversary 🤗 ❤ Also- Bradey saying I love you and her little paw on top of your hand and your mom’s hand - stop! 😭

[@samsdiary9750]

I love the 30-40 min vlogs :)

[@withmcp]

suggest to add peanut butter and/or berries to your overnight oats. honey + fruits (berries, kiwi) + nuts can work too!

[@LisaH582]

I think your "all over the place" vlogs are great.

[@bekahw1509]

Same!!!

[@paulinemuscatvlogs]

One of my summer bucket list things (for end of summer) is to go to a renaissance festival! Haven’t been in over a decade!

[@imtaramichelle]

omg sooo fun!

[@lindasnowden7862]

I do meals like that but usually with pasta instead of rice. I roast a bunch of vegetables in the oven while the pasta cooks. I like to roast a bunch of extra vegetables for other meals.

[@sillyleah118]

The way you kept saying “one bite” 😂

[@fk7771]

I think the braids are cute! Also love a high pony tail on you!
