wait you sing so your grandma doesn’t get car sick my heart this is so heartwarming

[@leahsfieldnotes]

it helps her breathing I think 🤔 idk how exactly but we found it’s a good trick maybe just a distraction to sing together hehe

i wish i could do that she passed away in her sleep 5 months ago and my grandma on my mom's side died giving birth to her 13th and last child his in sweden.

I love how you’ve immersed yourself in your Chinese culture - it really shows through the food you eat☺️ I just feel ashamed because I’m Chinese too and I live in a Southeast Asian country - but I never really took the time to appreciate my mother tongue and its culture. You’ve really inspired me to learn more about my roots☺️🙏🏼❤️

[@calista5811]

As a fellow Southeast Asian with Indonesian/Indian/Egyptian/Dutch background, I used to be ashamed of my culture too. But I have been slowly learning and I have come to love ethnic background as I grow up and I hope you can be like that too

[@jacqy6619]

same. south-east asian chinese here too. what more my parents are mainland Chinese immigrants, so i should be more immersed in the culture. but i didn’t appreciate the language or the culture, and i squandered a good opportunity growing up :( leah has really inspired me to get in touch with my Chinese heritage again, and i’m sure as hell going to get my accent back (disappeared after years of lazy pronunciation and speaking english) and take my mandarin abilities to new heights! here’s to fluent chinese and a greater connection and pride to my roots 😚

[@KelyrinYourSafeSpace]

Same here ❤️ I regret not speaking the language fluently. Each time I try to get back to it, I end up giving up... maybe I should start watching/translating vegan cooking videos to motivate myself haha ☺️

[@notjustalyssa]

same 😥i'm Malaysian Chinese and didn't appreciate it growing up because, quite frankly, i didn't want it thanks to White normativity. but it wasn't until i moved to the US for college that i really started to appreciate and be proud of my heritage. i have lost a lot of my Chinese language skills but am now determined to rebuild it 🥺i feel like the experience and culture of being Southeast Asian Chinese is so special - i love that we have our little branch out of the larger Chinese culture

[@leahsfieldnotes]

Vegan Asian food is the best food there is, the number of variations of tofu, bean curd, gluten, seitan, etc is truly astounding and all of them are delicious. Celebrating my second vegan holiday season with my Asian family has been amazing 🌱

as someone who´s trying to learn Chinese, listening to you and your family having light conversations is BOMB. love it, it helps

[@DelilahHazlewood]

Thank you for making videos like this! Growing up in the US I didn’t have ANY Chinese friends! You inspired me to embrace my Chinese culture and reminded me the importance of learning to speak Chinese again! I just got in touch with one of my cousins in China that I haven’t talked to in years. So thank you and please continue making videos like these! 😊

[@elly_angelic]

aww the interactions with your grandmother are so wholesome,, made me miss my asian grandmother so much >< she died in taiwan last year in september ;-; also loved seeing your fam's Chinese ver of Christmas,, i'm half taiwanese and wish my family was more involved in that side of my culture~~ i'm so proud of my asian heritage ♡

As a fellow Asian thanks so much, it's rather diffecult to find vegan Asian recipies when your first starting out and going more plant based :)

[@jluoetpsbm]

when you gave vegetables to your grandma and did a taste test with her, my heart melted 🥺 你好孝顺啊 😿

[@sincerelymasha]

honestly, thank you so much for making life a bit more bearable. there’s so much crap going and life is bonkers. you truly are my inspiration for youtube, life, and mindset. you have taught me emotional lessons and concrete things. know that you are making so many people’s life so much better and i wish that everything that you want in life you will get and succeed in. thank you))

Love you, the food looks DELICIOUS🥴I’ve had a severe dairy allergy all my life and I’ve been buying mostly seafood and occasional white meat for a while in efforts to live a cleaner and carbon friendly lifestyle, and this channel is super awesome for me, there is amazing food that doesn’t need animal products!

[@yuanyi1998]

Leah, finding your channel in 2020 was such a gift for me. I'm Chinese and grew up in a part of Canada where it was really hard to come by other Chinese immigrant kids to relate to, so I really distanced myself from that part of me because being Chinese was something that made me feel weird and too different from my peers. As an adult I've come to appreciate so many parts of my identity and finding your channel has helped me with that so much in unearthing the things I found so cool but never fully explored. Seeing you enjoy all of these foods that I used to and still eat every day is so heartwarming. I appreciate your content so much and wish you the best that 2021 has to offer 💖

[@DelilahHazlewood]

Leah has influenced me in the same way! Finding her channel was so nice since I didn’t grow up with Chinese friends and lived in a small town in the US. I’m glad I’m not the only one that feels this way about her videos!

[@florriehutchison3817]

i can't explain the warmth your videos fill me with. i love you

[@whiff.y]

I love how much of a foodie she is♥️ and how she loves her family so much😭❣️

[@keydarling]

I think another wonderful thing about this kind of content is it gives Chinese Americans/Canadians a platform and representation, even if perhaps its just a glimpse into your natural life. I'm Chinese American and this lovely vlog about the food and conversation and family makes me feel more like I am not so different or alone. Growing up I never read books/saw anything on big media platforms about people's lives that were like mine, so I love this content. Thanks for bringing so much peace into my life

[@hannahkench6958]

i really liked seeing all of the improvised meals! i miss that kind of cooking in my childhood. do noT be shy to share more of your improvised meals!

ahhh this is so sweet and i love this video so much! i like how quick you speak as i don’t get to hear a lot of natural conversations in chinese. it’s also very nice how quickly you switch from english to chinese - since i am very bad at switching quickly and this is great practice. the food looks great and your family is so sweet! thank you for making these videos ♡♡♡
