    Vivian, I have had long long hair for decades and have been afraid to cut it short. But your hair has inspired me and I am copying it next time I go to salon.

    For my boots I use the Dollartree flexible cutting boards. You get two for $1.25. Roll one up and place in boot. No more floppy boots

    Vivian,dear; please cut yer pool noodles longer fer yer boots. Also stuff one or two inside to remove the crease. You could also wrap the pool noodle with a hand or dish towel to increase the girth to stuff into yer boots. Since I know you love ‘quality’ items rub some leather conditioner on yer boots to help remove the creases! I adore the haircut it’s perfect for you! Love your content!!

    If you own a fondue cooking set, it comes in very handy, too, during a power outage. All you need to keep stocked is the sterno. I have used it for cooking ramen noodles and hamburger. It also heats up water for tea and coffee. 😊🤗👍

    9:40 is the perfect concept for this channel. I watch the videos for Vivian, quite often she will show something and I will think "Not for me" Then she shows it off and I think "Oh I CAN use that." Vivian really could be the spokesperson for Dollar Tree and DAISO, they really need to pay her.

    Vivian - the date on food is considered the "best by" date, meaning, that's the peak of freshness, after that, it may lose some flavor, just add seasonings. Unless the can is bulging, rusted or sometimes dented, it is OK. Last year, I made pasta sauce from a can of tomatoes from 2018, and I am still here, no issues. Tomatoes are a bit testy because they are acidic, but the can was still intact.
    Thanks for all your testings. You are a HOOT!!

We all need a metal foldable stove and can easily use sterno to make food, heat up food, water, make coffee, etc. definitely need this unless you have a gas stove when there is an emergency.

    Ok so I don't have a drip tray NEXT TO my sink. I have one that goes OVER my sink. Like it's on a rack thing that keeps it up over top so it doesn't take up extra counter space. It uses air space. I absolutely love it!!!
    That kids fast food tray replica toy would drive me nuts bc every single time my boy would play with it or even just see it in his toy box he would say "mom! Mom! Bench bies Mom!!" French fries r his favorite n he would LIVE ON THEM if I let him. I don't have a diso (spelling?) Near me but Vivian is always showing such cool n unique things from there I wish I had one!

    Tra lights would work but you can get the smaller version of the little fire can she used. Those mini stove are meant for either the mini can of flames or can be used outside with pieces of wood under the stove and will heat food with pan over it. There are alot of youtubes that give examples of these mini stoves. Excellent for the price.

  • @Sunshinery
    @Sunshinery Год назад +1

    They can be frosted see thru nails too. To get a extra good hold you are suppose to "etch" the underside of the tips (which is taking a buffer, a Nail drill with the buffer tip or a file even and rough up the underside along with buffing you nail as well to have the glue hold better. They making etching polish too that does the same thing). But I just wanted to correct Viviana on that. But she is correct in the sense that if you use the uv gel glue it won't adhere to the nail if it's a colors nail or tips are already polished.
    And great price for those nail tips.
    Ok enough of my nail talk. GREAT VIDEO😂❤❤❤❤

    Just curious, Vivian, could you use one of those clothes pins (since they have packs of quite a few of them at Dollar Tree) to clip your boots together, since you're still keeping the pool noodles in them? If you're worried about them leaving a mark on your boots (*especially if they're real leather), then just cut out a strip of fabric from somehting that you're not going to use anymore & put that fabric between the boot & the clothes pin.
