VLOG: opening up about finances, home updates, books + starting new hobbies ✨

[@khloeabrown]

I'm so happy you're able to find things to do off-camera, for yourself. I totally respect your desire for fun, personal activities and not wanting to document EVERYTHING. I hope you have a great time with any hobby you don't discuss or show. ❤🙌

[@smileycitrus]

[@janicew9]

I think Ive already commented this but the intro music is SUCH a vibe. Really pulls me out of the dreary, freezing winter where I am and reminds me things might be fun again someday 😂

[@smileycitrus]

hahaha I'm so glad! it's my fave pump up song x

[@melann6791]

Good on you for finding hobbies it is so important. I do paint by numbers- I feel crafty but you don't have to be talented 👌

[@smileycitrus]

I love paint by numbers! I did it a lot during lockdown- such a soothing activity 🥰

I seriously think the girlhood collective is heading into 2024 crafting! I have been scrapbooking as well and trying to get drawing again since the start of the year 🤣😍💖 and have heard a few other people online about doing the same

[@smileycitrus]

I love it!! going back to our roots 🩷

[@rhiannondunsby2904]

I would love to hear what your parents did for you regarding pocket money! Always up for inspo for my daughters cause as you said, mine never talked about it so half the time I’m clueless!!

[@swirlymay]

Oh, Mabel really is THE cutest. How you and hubby get anything done, I don’t know! ❤

[@brooklynscott3088]

Always here, I never miss a beat! 🤍

[@smileycitrus]

thank you for being here 🥹🤍

[@Saammi619]

Could you do a reel / tik tok or KZbin video on how you taught yourself to do the short form content? Would be super helpful 🥰

[@smileycitrus]

oooh yes!

[@edwardleecaliforniausa]

[@emmawright200]

I was watching this video while working in the kitchen this morning and my 4 year old son started watching it and said “I like this show. It’s teaching me how to put away Christmas. It’s teaching me how to be an adult” 😂

[@smileycitrus]

stop, that's so cute 🥹

[@maloumasereel966]

🤣💀 So grown up haha

[@brookerobertsco]

I love how open you are about money! It's something that's crucial for women if we want to earn what we're worth. :) Soooooo I'd love a crash course on how you edit your tiktoks. Help! 😩

[@smileycitrus]

yes!! 100% agree 🥰 I use Inshot! I just taught myself how to use it haha

[@khloeabrown]

It's so odd to me to see fun, summertime clips while it's 13F (-10C) outside where I'm at. Isn't it wonderful that the world is such a big, expansive place where half the world can have opposite weather?

[@smileycitrus]

it will never cease to amaze me! and time difference? blows my mind as well!

[@khloeabrown]

@@smileycitrus Exactly! I was finally "early" enough today to catch your upload - at 4 AM! 😂

[@maloumasereel966]

Haha same I’m watching this while there’s 10 cm of snow outside haha

[@nicolewilliams6023]
