I just wanted to say as potentially the minority in your comments (based on what you said in this video) that I am the same as you, I really prefer to be at home and am more comfortable there/don’t enjoy going out and you being comfortable and open saying that in this video just made me feel less alone and more normal if that makes sense lol. I like your homebody videos.
its nice to know there are other people out there who prefer to be at home. I dunno, whenever I go out I get more anxious and it drains me. At home its quite and safe and comfortable 😆
I actually like the look of the pumpkin. It gives me an Alice In Wonderland vibe and I really like it. Homemade rustic DIY’s are awesome because you’re not going for perfection but for your personal stamp. Love your platform and whatever you put out is awesome because your vibe is refreshing
I love Caffeinated Rachel 😂 I agree about being a homebody. I'd love to see videos of you out and about to live vicariously through your adventures since you're in a cool area of the country where I haven't spent much time, but I love simple day-in-the-life videos too, even if they're home-based. Do whatever makes you feel best and we'll be here for it! ❤
I just found your channel. Welcome to DC! :) Can I just say? I love how you actually just wear your loungewear to lounge around the house and then when it’s time to go outside in public, you change into clothes that are appropriate for the public (even just to do everyday errands like grocery shopping) and look so cute and effortless. I understand that for some people, it’s a mental health issue that prevents them from taking extra effort or maybe they are just in an extremely busy season of their life like short-staffed at work or new mom, etc. and that’s perfectly ok. But for others who might benefit from the “pick me up” of getting dressed up in a simple way with minimal effort, you demonstrated that it’s really quite easy to achieve. Thank you.
aw thank you and welcome. its also really hot outside half the time so I need to change into a dress or something but I do like just adding in the extra stuff 🧡🩵
I forgot to say what kind of content I like in the previous video where you asked. I really like cleaning videos!!! Cleaning, decluttering/organizing, life admin days/productive days. Thanks 😊
i started watching gilmore girls too. Im 36 and have never seen it, but i always hear people say its such a good show, especially for autumn. so i thought let give it a try.:)
As someone who lives in the DC area as well - it's also been unbearably HOT and HUMID this summer - I can see why you haven't been wanting to go out - just wait a few weeks and the weather will start to be beautiful in fall. I for one can't wait.
@@rachelleeaI live in the DC area as well (I have since my family moved here from England when I was in high school). This summer has been so weird! My fourth grade students freaked themselves out multiple times with the severe thunderstorms we had this week thanks to the heat (even with me reminding them why the thunderstorms happen and that they’re super common in Virginia in the summer). As a big history nerd, and since I teach Virginia history to my 9-year-olds, my best friend, who also teaches fourth grade, and I have decided to spend several weekends this school year visiting as many historical sites in Virginia as we can, starting with the presidents’ houses (Mt Vernon, Monticello, etc). I’m also looking forward to apple picking this autumn!
As a cancerian I totally get the home body! Where I’m at it too hot also 😂 and I work from home and am in 98% of the time! I love all your videos! Also just to say maybe not just your favs to go to but love seeing you walk around and the whole aesthetic of it! And yes coffee videos ☕️
They have maman’s in New York too and they’re just as lovely!! Their sandwiches are also great! I brought my parents last time they were in town and my mom got the cutest set of mugs in the blue pattern
The Smeg coffee maker is really cute! This spring, I splurged and bought a ninja dual brew pro and I absolutely love it. You can use k cups to brew a cup or ground coffee to brew a travel cup, a half or a full pot. One unit, lots of choices.
I love all of your home videos and cleaning videos 🌸 I’m pretty much the same. I am wondering if, instead of showing us your favourite places to go to, because yes, that can be pretty stressful, could you just take us with you as you explore your new home? Maybe a cafe here and there, places that you are finding. It doesn’t even have to be somewhere you have already been or like. It could be somewhere you are going to for the first time. Anyway. Just a thought. Also the little blue D&G espresso maker is gorgeous! 💙💙
You started Gilmore Girls, and it's the beginning of September, I start with Vampire Diaries and then watch Gilmore Girls. These are absolutely two shows I watch during the fall. I absolutely love your content and have been following you for a few years or more.
I remember when you would just take us walking w you (when you were doing that quite often for exercise I think)?! That was kinda easy?! And fun too. I liked it❤
I have been watching your videos for a long time and I really have never commented on any. I enjoy them so much. Do you still take your walks? Just wanted to let you know I look forward to every video.
Did you consider 2 or 3 smaller round tables, nesting together? It's flexible and cute. You could do one in the same wood colour as your barstool-feet, one white, maybe one blue?
That cafe, Maman, we have quite a few of them here in New York City. They're lovely! There are more of them in DC than just that one you found. Also, I was looking on their website; they are in Canada too. Toronto and Montreal!
Hi Rachell, I don't know if you will read this, but I had a fern once and I put it in a place where there wasn't enough light. Back then I did not know what I was doing, so I died. Don't know if it was the lighting, the lack of water or too much? Usually I see them outdoors where they get a lot of sun on the porch and they thrive. Don't know if those were fresh from the florist. However, ferns are delicate.
I have an electric percolator for hot coffee and a Toddy cold brew system which is good cor straight coffee and making a concentrate. If you have done it yet, Eastern Market will be a thing to do more than once and you should enjoy it. Saturdays and Sundays are good for vendors outside but there are food vendors inside as well. There is a fun place on 8th SE (the entrance on the alley) called The Betsy that I think you would enjoy.
I didn't measure anything but I hope it works for you - lemon - basil - olive oil - chili crunch - honey - minced garlic - salt & pepper I think that was it. Just mixed it together and kinda fried it in the pan 🙈

Fellow introvert homebody here ❤
Me too 😊
@@rachelleeasame omg i thought it only was me
I’m definitely a homebody too, but sometimes get that craving to just get out into nature and fresh air.
Also LOVE how long this video is!

Life’s too short, you’re allowed to have “Favorite for Now” 😊 Love your content!
Love that! 🧡
Ow the café is called Maman (it meams mama in French).
It’s just fascinating to see a RUclipsr just doing their normal everyday routine. It inspires me so much and makes me happy….😊
I love Caffeinated Rachel 😂

Would love to see videos maybe once a month or something "taking myself on a solo date in DC" ❤

I still think the chequered pumpkin is pretty. It doesn't have to be perfect.
As Italian I have to point out that your frind gift is called 'moca'. The Brand is Bialetti. Pretty common way to make coffe back home. Love it.
Always love a Trader Joe’s grocery run! I totally get creating a cozy home environment and wanting to spend more time inside ❤
Hi, Rachel! Love to see a video of your evening-to-night routine.
i started watching gilmore girls too. Im 36 and have never seen it, but i always hear people say its such a good show, especially for autumn. so i thought let give it a try.:)

Cant wait for a bit of a cool change to be able to comfortable head out and explore some more. Any recommendations?

I love seeing what groceries you buy ..as a Aussie myself I love seeing different food x
You remind me of my grandma her whole house is that blue & white themed stuff. I walk in to her house & it's like woah haha

Your probably just an introvert (staying home). I can sometimes relate 😄
Oh i enjoyed this video so much … every time i watch your videos i wish they never end .. big love ❤️
Thank you so much, i'm so glad you enjoy the vid 🧡
I love your videos! The pumpkin is great❤
Thanks so much! 😊
I have been watching your videos for a long time and I really have never commented on any. I enjoy them so much. Do you still take your walks? Just wanted to let you know I look forward to every video.
My mornings are all about the latte! ❤
Always happy when you put out a video. That cafe was really nice. Loving the pumpkin. Have a great weekend.
Thank you! You too! 🩵
That cafe reminds me of the style of old Martha Stewart videos from the 90s! 💙💙💙
lol. We have garburators in Canada! Also the cute cafe is a chain that we also have in Canada.
I totally understand the decoupage project you are talking about. I've done it numerous times.
I think it would be fun 😊
Did you consider 2 or 3 smaller round tables, nesting together? It's flexible and cute. You could do one in the same wood colour as your barstool-feet, one white, maybe one blue?
your colors are fun
I love the pumpkin. So nice ❤
That cafe, Maman, we have quite a few of them here in New York City. They're lovely! There are more of them in DC than just that one you found. Also, I was looking on their website; they are in Canada too. Toronto and Montreal!
I love this type of video. Kindof day in the life vlog.
re: coffee canister - don't you have those three the say "T" "C" and "S" on it from waaaayyy back? those would look cute on the counter?
Hi Rachell, I don't know if you will read this, but I had a fern once and I put it in a place where there wasn't enough light. Back then I did not know what I was doing, so I died.

Oh thank you so much, I hope it gets enough light in the bedroom. If not I'm sure I can move it into the living room, right into the sun 😊
I miss the cleaning videos. You don’t have to upload on this channel but the cleaning one🫠 they are so motivational on days I dread cleaning.
Bringing one back on the 10th of September 😋
@@rachelleea oooh thanks 🙏
LOve it so much
Such a nice video! ❤
This makes me so happy 🧡🧡🧡
I'm so glad 🩷🧡💛
