    Hello hi! So glad you're here to hang out with me for this vloggy weekend! I'm particularly interested in what you think of our living room rearrange so please weigh in!

    • @crose174
      @crose174 3 года назад

      If u need two chairs why not use the floral chairs for the dining table? It would open space in the living room and might be interesting. Get the table runner to match, make it look intentional. Just an idea. Anyway, loved the vlog style hope you keep them in rotation 👍

    I definitely loved it, Erica! Your content just keeps getting better. The way that you talk about being uninspired sometimes, even though you work with food is so comforting because we get to see that this is such a normal thing to happen and it’s ok if it does! You are inspiring!

      ahhh THIS IS SO NICE!!!!! I'm working hard at improving and learning but it's all a process and it's so nice to hear you see improvement. And YES getting tired of cooking is just the reality! Happens to everyone :)

    @TopRealtor333 3 года назад +3

    Nope. You don’t need 2 more chairs… looks great the way it is. If you need you can always use your living room chairs for the heads of the table, for a more formal look.❤️👌🏻

    Very late to the party, but I wanted to say that I've been watching your channel for a while, and I really like and appreciate these types of videos from you. I like your thoughtful approach to making sure you set yourself up for success throughout the week, but you also give yourself room to be a person. Thank you for sharing this. It is really a comforting type of video for me to watch and gives me motivation to do the self-care that it takes to make my own life easier. I would love to see more!

    Hi ! Moving the furniture around really changed the feel of the room. The living room looks more inviting and more spacious. Love how much natural light you get from the Windows. The cauliflower looks amazing . Rancho Gordo beans are amazing, a little bit of California in your cupboards. They have an online store that sells more varieties of Heirloom beans. It’s a staple in my pantry. It was fun to tag along on your weekend, thanks for sharing via the vlog.

      I really like where we landed...been living with it for a few days now and it's been good!! And I totally agree about the beans, Caroline whom I mentioned in the video has the subscription but sometimes can't keep up with it so we get to benefit! So lucky!

    Hi erica! I LOVE the vlog style. I myself am a culinary student at the moment. Seeing you timeline and mise en place everything is SO relatable to me at the moment. And you’re right, it all becomes second nature to multitask in the kitchen at home.. the timelines are drilled into us at school. I look forward to watching more of your food journeys!

    I am originally from Japan (now living in CA) so I got excited seeing you and your sister enjoying Japanese food.
    BYW, you were correct in saying tonkotsu (with an o for ko) to be pork broth. Tonkastu (with an a for ka) is pork cutlet.
    Thank you again for this wonderful channel!!
