I'm so grateful that I get to occasionally work with brands I actually like to create sponsored videos. Their direct support helps keep this channel afloat in the ever unstable world of KZbin ad revenue. These videos will always be disclosed, of course, and I appreciate everyone's kind support for these partnerships. Royalty Soaps also participates in commission or discount affiliations, like Amazon or RewardStyle, as these opportunities become available, like Amazon and RewardStyle and while the money we make with these links isn't much, every little bit counts and once again, we really appreciate your support! These products will always be marked and disclosed with a "✦".

My cat Skylos, always runs in and sits and watches the video and then tries to catch your hands as you do the frosting. He waits for it! it's hilarious, to see him so concentrated on your hands and try to catch you. The music as well, was really calming and loved it! Identify with Earth, and Air

[@TheNoteblockLizard]

Definitely identify with Air more than the others ... give me a good tree to climb and a lovely wind to enjoy while I'm up there looking out over the rest of the world going by. Also, I finally got the soap I bought for myself (previous purchases being for the rest of my family) and I couldn't help thinking that I finally understand why you gush over your fragrances ... There's really no way to describe in a video what they smell like until you're actually holding a bar to sniff, which is a shame. Everyone deserves to know just how amazing your soap smells!

Fire Newfoundland had a snowmageddon in January of 2020. We had 6 feet of snow fall in 24 hours. It was not fun and we got to practice for quarantine because the snow as piled so high we literally couldn't leave our houses, but we're in Canada. Our houses are built to withstand awful winter weather, and once the snow stopped, the snow clearing could begin.

Do continue to encourage her you never know what she’ll end up doing in the future but anything artistic is wonderful for the imagination and always encourage that. Cheers cherieK 🦋🌈🐿🇦🇺

Also, you always say that you talk for a long time but, being from the South myself, you remind me of all my Southern moms that I miss so much s I don't live anywhere near them anymore! So don't change! We love you just the way you are :)
