    hi friends ◡̈
 how has your week been?
    mine’s been very busy! I promise I will reply to all of your comments on my previous videos in the next day or so.
    here is the recipe for the sugar cookies. simple and delicious and vegan (if you want!). hope you like them ♡
    1. combine 1 cup butter and 1 cup granulated sugar in a bowl
    2. add 1 egg or 2 tbsp aquafaba to make it vegan + 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
    3. in a separate bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups plain flour, 3/4 tsp baking powder, 3/4 tsp salt
    4. gradually add the dry into the wet ingredients until well combined
    5. separate the dough into two and wrap in cling film. chill for a few hours
    6. dust a surface with flour and then roll out your cookie dough to your desired thickness
    7. cut up cookies and then place on a baking sheet. bake for ~8 minutes at 170ºC/350ºF
    8. allow to cool on cooling rack
    9. make the frosting by combining 3 cups icing sugar, 2 tbsp milk of your choice (I used oat), 2 tbsp light corn syrup, 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
    10. combine and then divide and add your food colouring
    11. apply with piping bag or spread with a knife like me
    12. add any extra things you fancy and enjoy ◡̈
    thank you so much for watching and wishing you a lovely week ahead.
    love, dal ☽

    I’m so glad i finally took the time to catch up on your last videos. I also long for the new year. I know each day is the right occasion to start anew, but of course the occasion seems much more official and symbolic with the first of January. I love so much this sensation of facing a pure canvas as a new piece of my life to thread as I please : I guess for us early risers the dawn of a new year resonates deeply.
    I also have resolutions for language learning next year. Like you I study Japanese and I hope to finally pass the JLPT 2 in 2025. I’d love to start learning Chinese too… Though I don’t know if it’s realistic. But whatever happens, good luck for your studying goals. (Oh, and the quote you put to illustrate this part of the video is brilliant.)
    Thank you again for entrusting us with a part of your visual diaries : as always it is very poetic and inspiring. I wish you the best for the last weeks of 2024. Take care.

    Wow, your planner and your journal for 2025 both are gooorgeous!!!! 😍 so great that you're studying Japanese, I think it's such a beautiful language... it's impressive how many languages you've learned already! May I ask what your first language is?
    I can so much relate with what you're saying about reading and escaping into another life for a while. For me reading is also very comforting and helpful in times where I feel down or not like myself. 🧡
    The cookies....!!! I really want to bake some cookies this week too! 🤗

    • @dalsol달설
      @dalsol달설  18 часов назад +2

      aren't they? 🥹 I wanted to get them last year but they were sold out! Japanese is beautiful, and much easier to get my head around grammatically now that I know Korean. the kanji and katakana are a challenge though 🥲 my first language is English. ever since I was little I wanted to be able to speak another language. when I was on holiday for as long as I can remember I was fascinated hearing others speaking in another language, knowing they could understand it but I couldn't. I don't think I've explained that too well haha. but it's been a love of mine since I was young. may I ask if you learned English as a second language or if it's a language you were raised with alongside German? because I'm so impressed by your command of it! if you studied it, I would love some tips 🥹
      since finding your channel I've felt so much more in love with reading! it was always a hobby of mine, but I struggled to prioritise it. you've really helped me make time for reading and I'm very grateful to you for inspiring me 🤍 every week is a good week for baking cookies, but weeks leading up to Christmas especially so! 🥰
      edit: just realised I wrote a novel here. I get all excited when talking about things I love. very sorry haha.

    • @ink-stained_realms
      @ink-stained_realms 16 часов назад +1

      @ please don’t be sorry, I find it so interesting to read! 🤗 My first language is German, we had English in school and I‘ve read many English books since and I watch a lot of movies, RUclips videos and series in English to practice it! My written English is quite okay, but I can‘t speak as good as I write, haha.. 😂 maybe because I seldom speak it.
      I had French in school too, for 4 years, but I have forgotten everything! 🫣😅 and thank you so much for your kind words about my vlogs inspiring you to read more, that makes me so happy! 🤗💕📚
      Have a wonderful cozy week! 🌷

Learning English is one of my goals, but I don't always manage to do it.... You are really good at studying so many languages. I really wish you all the best in the new year! Looking forward to seeing you next Sunday❤

I am writing this year off as one of rest and getting to know a different side of myself a little better. I hope the next year will be a lot better for us all 🤍 I assumed you were at least bilingual with how beautifully you write to me each week in English! let's do our best together in 2025 ☺️ I hope you have a warm and peaceful week, and see you again soon 🤍

    New journals are marvellous!!✨🔮🪄 The design and messages are wonderful. I hope they help you make a great start to the year 2025!!
    I also didn't believe that writing down my thoughts could free my mind. However, I now practice Morning Pages, as suggested by Julia Cameron, and it works wonders for my extremely restless "monkey mind."🤪
    What you said about Ahimsa is, in my humble opinion, undoubtedly true. We should start with ourselves, being kinder and more tender to our souls and bodies, which will reflect in the outer world.💕
    I haven't set my language learning goals for 2025 yet, but I'm pondering them. I'd like to prioritise my Korean while not forgetting other languages. To do this effectively, I need to learn how to manage my time better. I feel like I'm finally getting a hint of what is important to spend my time and energy on and what is not.
    Ohhh, Love Actually!! I've watched that movie definitely more than ten times. Is it a very British thing to do, even for someone who is not British?💂‍♀👩‍🎤🧙‍♀😆
    May I ask what you do with the paper books you’ve read? There is probably not enough storage space, as far as I know how apartments in Seoul operate.
    Am I mistaken, or are there many (or enough) second-hand bookstores where you can give your books away?
    I wholeheartedly hope that next year will bring all of us gentle inner growth and new opportunities to experience more self-love and self-appreciation.
    2025 will be the year of new energies and knowledge.🙏
    Dear 달☾, I wish you a wonderful next week full of joy and appreciation for the small things.😊💗💗💗

I'm sorry to hear you're not feeling too positive for the new year. it can be a difficult time amid all the energy around it. I hope that it will bring you lots of happiness and positivity. I'll be staying in Korea. my parents are currently renovating their house in the UK and there's nowhere for me to stay, but it should be finished within the next few months, so I may pop home next year ☺️ I hope these final few weeks of the year will be more positive for you after facing such a difficult time 🤍 lots of love to you.

    Bonsoir, je n'ai jamais réussi cette posture de yoga même en m'aidant du mur. La votre est magnifiquement réalisée et en plus en croisant les jambes, bravo. Pour les biscuits je coupe un sachet propre je mets une partie dessus et dessous dans la pâte est au milieu comme ça je peux l'abaisse avec le rouleau à pâtisserie sans que ça colle, puis soulève la partie du sachet du dessus, faire les découpages avec l'emporte pièces puis je soulève le sachet du bas sous chaque morceau pour le faire retourner et ça s'enlève facilement. Je ne sais pas si je suis claire dans mes explications 😂 je vous conseille de voir cette astuce sur RUclips car il y a des tutoriels dans ce sens. Cette année j'ai été fainéante pour mes cours d'espagnol je suis à ma 4e page😢. Pas grave pour mo l'essentiel c'est d'avoir une bonne santé et d'avoir la paix. Trop mignonne la dernière séquence, votre chien sur vos genoux avec une couverture. Des fois on fait des efforts pour atteindre notre souhait mais ça ne se réalise pas donc je me dis au moins j'ai essayé. Prenez soin de vous et de vos chers compagnons à bientôt inchallah

      Bonjour et merci pour ce message si gentil et plein de bons conseils ! Votre astuce pour les biscuits est très claire, et je vais certainement l'essayer la prochaine fois! ça a l'air tellement pratique. Pour le yoga, il m’a fallu du temps et beaucoup de patience pour arriver à cette posture, alors ne perdez pas espoir, chaque progrès compte ! ☺️
      C’est vrai que parfois on fait de notre mieux et les choses ne se passent pas comme on veut, mais comme vous dites, l’essentiel, c’est la santé et la paix. Je vous souhaite beaucoup de réussite avec vos cours d’espagnol, même un petit effort est déjà une victoire. Buena suerte! Prenez soin de vous aussi, et de vos proches. À bientôt 🤍

    I have too, but I don't want to tell anyone about my plans. But I can say this much. I am far behind and want to move forward.
    I can also say that I am lying in the middle of the ocean, but this time I want to reach the shore.
    Maybe I won't be able to find time for anyone.
    But even then, I have to reach the shore.
    Please pray for me so that I can reach the shore from the beginning to the end of the new year.

      I'm happy to hear you have lots of plans for the new year too. although you may feel far behind now, each day you work on something even a little, you are making progress. you may feel adrift now, but I'm sure the new year will bring you closer to the shore. I also have felt lost many times this year, and more adrift than ever. I too am working on making my way back to shore, one day at a time.
      do what you need, and those who love you will understand. prioritise your time for yourself, first. you will be able to make time for others when you feel ready. take your time and don't rush. I'm praying 2025 will be a happy, positive, and fulfilling year for you 🤍
      thank you for all the love and kindness, each week your messages bring so much happiness to my day.
      I'm sending lots of love and light your way.

Egerben szálltam meg, és imádtam azt a rövid időt, amit ott tölthettem.

Még mindig maradt néhány kekszem! Próbálom lassan megenni őket, de nehéz, mert olyan finomak (még ha kicsit viccesen is néznek ki haha). Nagyon szívesen küldenék neked belőlük egy rózsa cserébe ☺️ Még egyszer köszönöm a kedvességedet és a támogatásodat.
