Reading 3 books, a big book haul, + building my IKEA pax closet! 📚🌱 | WEEKLY VLOG

[@maryelizabethfullam3186]

25 y/o teaching my parents about respectful adult communication while I stay with them caring for my nephew/taking over some household responsibilities. These vlogs are genuinely one of the only things getting me through it, I love the long vlog! Also, my 4 y/o nephew knows the difference between a turtle and a tortoise because I showed him a clip of Annabeth (a tortoise wivs on da wand, obvs). As a kid with no pets he is big impressed with your old cat, yellow dog, and big tortoise lol. As a queer neuro-spicy disabled/chronically ill book nerd and grownup weird kid, I appreciate your content, never change!

[@Jillybeanzxo]

Well I am the kind of cancer that cries and girl had me tearing up because I appreciate you so much for opening up your life to us on the interwebs and always being a ray of sunshine & have me giggling thru my grey days 🙌🤗💙

[@Aliisreading]

☕️☕️☕️ always a treat to watch long videos! I’m the same with not liking books that bring reality into it! I love to escape into books and the get reminded of the harshness of the real world.

[@oliviareadsalatte]

Yes! It’s not that I’m unwilling or don’t want to read about real life issues, but I like when there’s not such real life scenarios I guess? Idk how to phrase it 🙉

[@Aliisreading]

@@oliviareadsalatte I know what you mean 🫶🏻

[@danamonsees-cns]

I'm loving these hour long vlogs - please don't stop doing them! I always love the mix of books and lifestyle content from you too

[@cassiethebookishwitch5448]

"I'm trying to manifest not being depressed." Same. Nothing makes my mornings more than having my (first) coffee with a dose of Olivia. For the stove top, there are little kits you can buy that have special cleaners and little scrapers to get the hard grime off. My sis and I used one in our old place and it worked so well.

[@carolking4124]

I overwhelmingly support this transition to hour long vlog. Like I loved the previous ones, and thought they were super, but these are just extra extra, so that's my feedback, and I'm defo picking up the Naturals from my library too. ☕

[@caratfusearoha7317]

Me personally I love your sermons 😂. Your personality is bubbly and realistic which is refreshing. Your vlogs help me whine down in a way, so it’s very helpful with my mental health tysm ❤

[@MollytheReader]

your audiobook + ASMR room listening is *genius* will be trying ASAP ☕ these long vlogs hit the spot

[@betsey2966]

Oh my gosh.. 43:38 I agree! This is such a cozy supportive corner. I woke up anxious this morning which I haven’t in a while and just hearing this chat has been so comforting. Now I have to pause and come back to finish later, but I’ll be looking forward to the rest of the video!

[@marlachildsartwork]

☕️ love the longer blogs! They’re perfect for when i’m working in the studio.

[@clairedecoste4310]

I enjoy watching the coffee drip onto the brown sugar. Doing it in the skull cups just takes it up a notch! I love watching Annabeth chomping on her lunch. The closet is looking fantastic, so jealous of your jewelry shelf.

[@oliviareadsalatte]

Thanks so much 🫶🏻💛

[@RonnieTheReader]

Combined two of my favorite genres; home content and reading!

[@RealForUs]

I’d watch literally anything you put out, even if it’s just watching you read/watch tv because it still feels like we’re friends doing things together. I find you extremely relatable so your videos are a huge source of comfort. I love the the mesh of book + lifestyle vlogs. I think book only videos have a time and place, but I specifically watch your channel because I like you as a person (as well as the fam! I always pause to show my partner the kids 😻)

[@oliviareadsalatte]

This comment is seriously so kind, thank you so much. I’m late to replying because I’m sooooo behind but thank you so so much 💛

[@PageTurnerTravels]

Hi hi! 1. Love the one hour vlogs! 2. Ok, I loved when you were talking about this little community, because same. I think it’s why I love the hour long vlogs, because it feels like I’m hanging out with a friend and it’s just super comforting?? 3. Fellow menty b’er, and chronic illness girly and I just really appreciate your content. Ok byeeeee

[@LaurasChronicLife.]

Absolutely Love the hour long vlogs. Favorite part of my mornings is being able to watch these while I crochet.

[@jordanhicks2213]

I have a glass stove top and I use the pink stuff on it. The scrub daddy powder paste is good too. When I use the pink stuff, I spray a household cleaner on the stove top before I scrub. After it is cleaned, I also use a glass spray to make it shiny.

[@91kab]

Good way to start my Tuesday sick at home a new vlog.

[@surpriseitsus9622]

Hope you feel better soon ❤

[@megancottrell]

A tip for cleaning your stove, I use Cerama Bryte to clean mine and it's amazing for the difficult build up. Weiman Cooktop and Stove Top Cleaner also works really well!

[@surpriseitsus9622]

Thank you

[@beccawalker5332]

I'm CRACKING UP that you said ear balls, because I ALWAYS tell my students "look at me with your eyeballs and listen to me with your ear balls."

[@oliviareadsalatte]

Hahahaa I love it

[@the_eerie_faerie_tales]

omg I say that too 😆

[@ctow17]

I just got done reading “Not so perfect strangers”. Also for your cooktop you should try the weimans cooktop cleaner with the scrapper thing. Works like a charm.

[@MlleMargot623]

I’m new to your videos and I just have to say I love your personality!! I work from home and you make my day feel a lot less lonely and it inspires me to be more productive. Keep doing you!!!

[@betsey2966]

[@Shelbsesthetics]

I’m so happy that you’re reading The Naturals!! It’s One of my all time favorite series and I feel like it doesn’t get enough recognition.

[@bethdavies5715]

☕️ love your content, especially your longer videos!

[@ja.ck.IE_Ma.kw09]

☕ looking forward to the organization and I love the shelf building part🤍🙈

[@oliviareadsalatte]

Yay! Thank you!

[@sarahbevc2434]

To clean the stove: wet paper towels (layer them a bit thickly) and leave them on the hard parts. Leave them for a long time, until the hard parts soften. Then wipe the surface with dry paper towels. If there are any marks left from wiping, clean the surface with appropriate cleaning liquid at the end. Usually works like a charm.

[@jillyhawk_4581]

I am DEEP into The Selection bc of you 😂❤

[@ellietury6269]

Loving the long videos that include lifestyle stuff. Also low key, I would love a purse tour😅☕️

[@Devi15]

Obsessed with these long vlogs ✨✨✨ paused to say (so I don’t forget😂) that for the stovetop “The Pink Stuff” is supposed to work great. I’ve been wanting to try it out so plan on getting some this weekend. I’ll try it and report back 💪🏻

Hi Olivia, I love you and your videos. I hope you never stop making them because I will never get tired of watching them!💕 Plus your taste in music is exactly what I need in my life. Do you have a spotify playlist I can follow? ❤❤❤☕️

☕️your channel is exactly what I need to get happy on a bad day Thanks for helping me through my day. ❤

[@hailstormhere]

The only way I have ever been able to get the burnt on stuff off my stovetop is with a razor blade. Like one of the ones they use to get sticky stuff off windows and things. It works like a charm and is much easier than scrubbing.

[@carrieorsel1340]

Hi, Olivia! I've seen people use razor scrapers on their stove tops. Love you!

[@butterflyamanda]

I love the long vlogs ☕️☕️☕️

[@Bookedoncharity]

Watching you reading Gideon The Ninth, makes me want to read it now

[@MotherOfDragon117]

I use my razor thing to get that off my stove. The brand is the same as the cleaner...but I can't remember what it is. Red and black. Works perfectly.

[@annibunny5968]

Yesss those scrapers are amazing!

[@oliviareadsalatte]

Thank you! I’m gonna go grab it!
