We did it again - Vlog 6

[@rylieisrad]

Hey hey hey! Look who’s finally getting around to watching the vlog 😂 Ahh I’m so excited! 1. The blue Twilight Noel flip flop journal is STUNNING. As much as I love a traditional red and green Christmas aesthetic, there is something so beautiful about a blue theme and you truly captured it! 2. I still haven’t forgotten about ACOFAS, and I could not be more excited. It’s about time we did another buddy read, and just talking about it makes me so excited for 2025! 3. Christmas shopping always gets me so stressed out, so I understand where you’re coming from. But, I LOVE it at the same time. I always find it so fun to look at everything and try to get ideas of what people want, but that’s also what stresses me out the most as well haha it’s a very confusing experience overall. 4. I think doing a December Daily would be really really fun. I would just be having a late start to it, but as long as I’m able to stick with it for the rest of December, it should hopefully be fine right? 5. I KNOW Spectacular is just spectacular isn’t it?! Ugh so beautiful, and I am so excited to read it. I loved the dedication as well 🥲 6. MINI BOOKS YAY! It’s so exciting to see that we each got some of the same ones! It was so much fun to open them with everyone, and I’m so happy you ended up finding them too. I put the little shelf on my big shelf haha It looks absolutely precious all put together :) 7. Bless You! 8. Ooh cider yum. I just got a candle that smells like mulled cider ugh so delicious! Also, there’s nothing wrong with expanding your horizons! I, for one, love that you have found something that you feel so passionately about. The way your face lights up every time you talk about your journals just gets me all giddy; I could listen to you talk about them all day :) 9. Yes, let’s normalize less sexy times in books. I promise we do not need them to feel connected to the characters’ love for each other. It actually makes me feel more disconnected because it’s like I am intruding on a moment that should be private. And especially when authors start throwing in those ridiculous words, phrases, innuendos, and what have you, it brings the relationship to surface level for me most of the time. I find it so hard to take the couple seriously after those scenes because it’s just terribly unrealistic, and it should not be that way. 10. On today’s episode of The Crafting Cookworm (Thanksgiving edition)… Cherry Delight! 😂 No, but seriously I love cherry delight, and I just know that it was delicious. 11. Bless you! (Again) 12. If you start deckling the edge of your pages in your journals, you have officially entered next level territory. That is seriously amazing. 13. I have heard amazing amazing things about When the Moon Hatched. I would love to read it as well, and that copy is so beautiful! Hahaha it’s so funny the confidence you had that it was going to be under an hour long. No complaints here of course! Because this was another super fun, lovely vlog. I had such a good time following along with you during Thanksgiving week, and these vlogs are definitely something that I am thankful we started doing again! I feel like I cannot say that enough; I just can’t express how much they mean to me when we are apart. Anyway, I’m going straight to watching the next one now, and I can’t wait! I love and miss you so so much Aunt Janie! 🥰
