Aw thank you for opening my letter! Hope that you like the tea. I'm soooooo happy to see all the comments from the other Italian subscribers! Lot's of love, Marta.
Kitt Jennings Yeah, there are a lot of things you'd think are vegan, but actually aren't. But luckily there is a vegan version of just about everything. Like you would think a can of refried beans would be vegan, but they actually use lard (aka animal fat) in it. They do make vegan canned refried beans though. Another thing is marshmallows. They actually have some fish products in them. Can't remember exactly what its called, but they do also make verbal marshmallows. Another thing is most refined sugars are filtered through bone char. So you'll have to find vegan versions of that. Your best bet is coconut blossom sugar. I know Sam's Club sells a big bag of it. They sell a big bag of vegan organic cane sugar I believe it was... You just have to make sure you read the ingredients and educate yourself on what they are. Since things like gelatin are made from animals... And whey is a milk byproduct.
And when I say there is a vegan version of just about everything, I really mean it. I even searched vegan beef jerky the other day, and they have a few different kinds. 😂
I'm also an Italian subscriber! Marta is not the only one! 😜😜😜 I can't wait to see your new adventures in Korea! 😀😀😀 In the meantime keep up with the awesome job! 👍👍👍 I wish you and Keyboard-san the very brightest and best of Holidays! 🎄🎄🎄
Pasata is basically canned tomato sauce, or it can be refferd to home made one. The word is also connected to pasta from Italy, they make their pasta with tomatos that are cooked and they peal of the skin. Not cooking them for too long, just adding them to boild water for a minute and adding some garlic into it.
it's relaxing to see you cook :) . it's like a bit of a destresser for me to watch, for some reason. it feels casual and cozy, unlike "actual" cooking videos on youtube. i like your little comments about winging the recipe and trying to remember how your Grandma made the shepard's pie
Hi there! Worcestershire sauce or just worcester sauce is pronounced like wuss-ta-sha or just wuss-ta , english town names like to not be pronounced anything like theyre said :s But yeah its an english town name and thats how we say it in england
Not sure if this is all worshorshire sauce, but the one here in the US is made with anchovies! May want to see if anchovies is an ingredient in yours sharla! They're not little bits or anything either so it's hard to tell..
I’m from Herefordshire, England, the next county to Worcestershire (home of the sauce) and it’s pronounced wuss-ter-shur, unless you’re posh and pronounce shire as shire 😂😂
I used to have flower teas all the time! They are so much fun :) I believe they are usually jasmine tea you can get all different kinds that bloom differently in your teapot
I love your vlogs Sharla! You're such a nice person, you and Taylor are my fav youtubers, I'm sure you'll both have millions of subs in the near future, you deserve it! Keep up the great work, with love from Belgium
yes, same! Or at least of the interesting moments where you're figuring things out for the very first time. Are you planning to work and if so, how are you planning to get past the language barrier?
Oh passata di pomodoro is tomato sauce :) made with peeled tomatoes with salt and olive oil (sometimes also made with onions and/or basil's leaves) cooking all the ingredients for long time, like from 30min till up to 2 hours, then everything is being mashed inside mixer nowadays or in past inside something called "passino" a sort of strainer with a blade and a crank on top ^^ Greetings from Italy
That glass cup thing is actually a tea filter. So you are supposed to put tea leaves, flowers, whatever you use to make your tea so that when you pour it out, it doesn't pour out the leaves/flowers from the spout. The picture on the box of the teapot shows the correct way to use it. You were looking online at teapots without filters.
I love how you made the Shepherds Pie your own! Yummy looking and I’m not even vegan!! As far as the teapot I think the “little cup” is for loose tea so you can use that as well.
We had to put my dog down today and my family and I are devastated, but watching you is one of the few things that has helped me keep my mind off of it so thank you from NC, USA
The little cup for your transparent teapot is specifically for loose tea, it strains it for you/makes cleanup easier. I wouldn't say it's necessary for a big blooming tea flower-thing.
You put the cup in it when you're using loose leaf tea! You can put the leaves in the cup and since it should have some holes, when you poor the water in it, the tea/water will just go into the pot but the loose leaf will stay inside the cup :)
I've bought the blooming tea flower at Target n Amazon has it to:) my teapot came with different ones to try it out right away and there's videos of the little flower pods opening up in time lapse videos they're so pretty :)
i'm italian too, and i've been thinking about how many italians are subscribed to your channel and i don't think we are a lot, but it's such a shame cause your video are sooo funny and lovely to watch
I'm from New England and we pronounce Worcester "wuh-star" and the sauce "Wuhsta-sheer" I think it's similar in Worcester England. Thought you'd like to know :) love the vids 💙
Yeah this is how we say it pretty much. In England we pronounce it like muster but with a "wuh" rather than "muh" at the beginning, and "shire" is always pronounced "shear" in a place name, because we're not hobbits :)
It can be said as, 'Wuss-cester-shire' or 'wuster-sher' as a shorter name, but there are many ways to say it :) Lea and Perrins is the brand in the UK and most used as the name.
I've been watching your vlogs for about a year! I remember being interested in Japan for a long time and I'm so glad I found you since I got to learn more about the culture, food, and design from your vlogs! I would like to enter the givaway for my friend Angel who has an iPhone 7! Also wanted to say that I love your videos and I've learned so much from them! So exited to see your new Vlogs from Korea!
That case would be perfect for my boyfriend! He is always using my handmedown cases when I upgrade (right now his is pink and sparkly 😂), and as a web developer he’s a huge geek for this sort of stuff.
Hello really enjoyed your video especially the part about the flower tea ☕️ ...I have just one quick question do you have to add sugar? 🤔 I’m only asking because I’ve just purchased some for the first time and every vid I’ve seen so far everyone just Steep and sip lol 🤷🏾♀️
Hey Sharla will we still be available to send you letters even after you move to Korea?😀 I really wish to send you something but at the moment I can't ☹
AHHHH I would love to enter the giveaway for that phone case. I remember that video with Norm you had and have been looking everywhere for it. I have an iPhone 7 plus too which is perfect! 😚😚😚
For the 'Adding to Playlist' part, you can add rules for RUclips to automatically add videos to a playlist. Say, if the title includes the word "Vlogmas", add to 'Vlogmas 2017' Playlist. It really helps, and you set it and forget it. It handles it for you. Just go to a playlist's settings and it should be somewhere in there. It's straightforward enough. I find the feature really useful.
I wanna enter the contest! I would like to enter for my GF she would love that case. She spends a lot of time while I drive us around town reading articles. I hope you are doing well Sharla
The tea looked so beautiful I’m sure it’s yummy as well. This case is amazing, I’ve never seen anything like it💖. I have an iPhone 7 Plus. Would love to enter your giveaway, Sharla. Thank you and have a nice day.🤗
I actually only clicked on this because I got my sister some blooming tea as a souvenir from Yokhohama Chinatown and wanted to see what it would look like, but also wanted to see a video with a RUclipsr with some personality. So thanks!
Many Germans here? :-) Would like to enter that giveaway. Got a new iphone 7 plus a week ago. And i think pictures of my daughter would look nice on it. :-)
Sharla, have you tried the Larabar Bites? It's in a resealable bag, and a good snack. The flavor is more mild, but I like that you can grab as many as you want.
Ah man I'm obsessed with pins! 😍 And your new year's cards are too cute! I feel like if I won your giveaway I'd give the case to my dad because he is very practical and I feel it's something he's actually use
Also watching from Italy 😍 I was so happy to hear about other Italian subscribers but I'm sure there are a lot! Love u and enjoy your holidays xx (actually laughing at the passata part)
I'm watching from Kitchener, Canada. It's so neat to see where everyone is from- at least 8 Italians and just a little south of that- a person from Malta- a Maltian?, plus people from the Netherlands, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Canada, Argentina, Spain, Finland, Norway and the UK and I'm sure I missed a few countries. You're an international star, Sharla.
Those cards looks wonderful also wow you really good at cooking also I agree u never go wrong with rozmaring at least for me it always fits pretty mucth evrywhere
Yes, I'm italian and I've been watching your videos for about 5-6 years I think? You were actually the first youtuber I subscribed to and started watching regularly. Actually I think it's because of you that I started watching youtube!! Anyway, I don't usually comment but thank you for your videos and marry Christmas :D
Passata is tomato puree without the skins :)
Aw thank you for opening my letter! Hope that you like the tea. I'm soooooo happy to see all the comments from the other Italian subscribers!
Lot's of love,
Marta.
Me tooo! It's neat to see how many people from Italy are watching :D Thank you so much for the letter
The cup in the teapot is for loose leaf tea, it's a filter so that you don't end up drinking tea leaves
Worcheshire sauce is made with anchovies usually so it's not vegan just to let you know for the future. There is a vegan version available on iherb :)
I never knew that about Worcestershire sauce. Little bit mortified 😰
Kitt Jennings don't be we all make mistakes. Luckily there are vegan alternatives available ;)

"But let's be honest, cats are better."
Taylor and Rosie would beg to differ, Sharla!😂
sunflower irony as would I..
Dogs everytime, no contest
Worcestershire sauce is called “salsa inglesa” in Spanish (English sauce). So much easier to say 😃
That sounds like a cooler name for that sauce
Kind of like French with crème anglaise and custard :)

I can't imagine vlogging all day and editing at like midnight! I do look forward to all your future comparison videos!

Hi there! Worcestershire sauce or just worcester sauce is pronounced like wuss-ta-sha or just wuss-ta , english town names like to not be pronounced anything like theyre said :s
But yeah its an english town name and thats how we say it in england
Niamh B that's how we say it in Texas too, but with an 'r' at the end
Where I’m from we say it like wuh-sta-sheer
I’ve heard it pronounced so many different ways. In the south, I most commonly her wer-ster-shyre or wer-ster-sher. I say woos-ter-shyre.
A good way to add thickness and protein to a stew or literally anything savory is to make a bean paste to add to it.
I'm watching from Italy and it's been 5 years :D
Not sure if this is all worshorshire sauce, but the one here in the US is made with anchovies! May want to see if anchovies is an ingredient in yours sharla! They're not little bits or anything either so it's hard to tell..
Oooh Dear! I'm glad that you like it the pins!! A biiiiiiiiiig hug!!
Thank you so much!!!! They are beautiful💕✨✨✨
I’m from Herefordshire, England, the next county to Worcestershire (home of the sauce) and it’s pronounced wuss-ter-shur, unless you’re posh and pronounce shire as shire 😂😂
or, if you're lazy, you just drop the shire and say Wooster like the Japanese
Eh it’s definitely Wooster......... 😁
pap3rwings I'm British and I struggle with the pronunciation. I get tongue tied. LOL my friends find it hilarious.
I’m from Hampshire and I pronounce it the same but when i see foreign people pronounce it wrong I all ways laugh
The Spongebob time card was 😂👍 You should do that more often!😆😎🤓
I used to have flower teas all the time! They are so much fun :) I believe they are usually jasmine tea you can get all different kinds that bloom differently in your teapot
I love your vlogs Sharla! You're such a nice person, you and Taylor are my fav youtubers, I'm sure you'll both have millions of subs in the near future, you deserve it! Keep up the great work, with love from Belgium
Exams are officially over! Vlogmas binge watch time 😤👌
Congrats!!!😃
I’d love to see daily vlogs for your first month in Korea! Really excited to see what your life there will look like 😊
yes, same! Or at least of the interesting moments where you're figuring things out for the very first time. Are you planning to work and if so, how are you planning to get past the language barrier?
Oh passata di pomodoro is tomato sauce :) made with peeled tomatoes with salt and olive oil (sometimes also made with onions and/or basil's leaves) cooking all the ingredients for long time, like from 30min till up to 2 hours, then everything is being mashed inside mixer nowadays or in past inside something called "passino" a sort of strainer with a blade and a crank on top ^^
Greetings from Italy
i literally marathon all your vlogs even though i've already watched it before but omg, i need to get my hands on those teas
That glass cup thing is actually a tea filter.

The picture on the box of the teapot shows the correct way to use it. You were looking online at teapots without filters.
Italy is watching you girl 😊 🇮🇹 😘
The cup thing to your teapot is an infuser so you can put loose tea in there and take it out when you're done steeping :)
I want to try that tea
I love how you made the Shepherds Pie your own! Yummy looking and I’m not even vegan!!
As far as the teapot I think the “little cup” is for loose tea so you can use that as well.
The image of Sharla trying to walk an actual Slakoth is great
We had to put my dog down today and my family and I are devastated, but watching you is one of the few things that has helped me keep my mind off of it so thank you from NC, USA
I'm watching from Italy❤️ 🇮🇹
The little cup for your transparent teapot is specifically for loose tea, it strains it for you/makes cleanup easier. I wouldn't say it's necessary for a big blooming tea flower-thing.
Watching from the Netherlands!!💖
Daily blogs for a month here and a month there sounds like a lot of fun!
Are there many guys watching sharlas vlogs? I feel like the only one 😥
Aj Iam there entertaining
Hello lol
Lol I’m watching them, she’s so fun
🙋🏽♂️
I do!
You put the cup in it when you're using loose leaf tea! You can put the leaves in the cup and since it should have some holes, when you poor the water in it, the tea/water will just go into the pot but the loose leaf will stay inside the cup :)
She thought the tea was pretty, but I thought she was prettier😆
That flower tea looks so beautiful! And i really need to try all the receipes that you showed 😍 the food you make looks so goodddd man!
Hi Sharla! watching from Italy! 😊
I'm really used to making shepherds pie with a lot of peas & carrots. It was interesting seeing a different take on it.
I'd be cautious about the Worcester sauce, most brands have anchovies in...
I've bought the blooming tea flower at Target n Amazon has it to:) my teapot came with different ones to try it out right away and there's videos of the little flower pods opening up in time lapse videos they're so pretty :)
Italian watching from the Netherlands ;)
You can also buy the blooming tea in London, if anyone wants to try it. Happy Holidays!
i'm italian too, and i've been thinking about how many italians are subscribed to your channel and i don't think we are a lot, but it's such a shame cause your video are sooo funny and lovely to watch
that tea and those pins!! I'm a sucker for those two things haha :D
The New Years cards are incredibly adorable!
I'm from New England and we pronounce Worcester "wuh-star" and the sauce "Wuhsta-sheer" I think it's similar in Worcester England. Thought you'd like to know :) love the vids 💙
Yeah this is how we say it pretty much. In England we pronounce it like muster but with a "wuh" rather than "muh" at the beginning, and "shire" is always pronounced "shear" in a place name, because we're not hobbits :)
I’m from the mid west and we also say “wuhsta-sheer”
Same! But we pronounce it slightly differently in England: Wuh-stur and Wusta-shur :)
OhKayTea I'm from South Africa and also just pronounce it like wustah but vustah. Like a v sound.
And if you're ftom Worcester, they pronounce it 'wuh-stah', or if you're google maps 'worst-er.
It can be said as, 'Wuss-cester-shire' or 'wuster-sher' as a shorter name, but there are many ways to say it :) Lea and Perrins is the brand in the UK and most used as the name.
Your eyebrows LOOK SO GOOD
love how you let your hair grow! suits you well!
I didn’t read the comments, but did you buy a vegan Worcestershire sauce? It is typically made with fermented anchovies?
I neeeed that case in my life! The Thundercats symbol would look so neat on that!
Watching from Italy 😁
And passata is an italian word, it's just uncooked tomato puree 🍅💓
From Italyyyyy here too :3 Hiiiiiiiiiii!

I'm watching from Kitchener, Canada. It's so neat to see where everyone is from- at least 8 Italians and just a little south of that- a person from Malta- a Maltian?, plus people from the Netherlands, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Canada, Argentina, Spain, Finland, Norway and the UK and I'm sure I missed a few countries. You're an international star, Sharla.
Hey! Sharla i'm from Perú ! =)
I think you drop the flower into the teapot after you fill it with hot water so the flower stays together
People still play Pokémon GO?

I sometimes do a cottage pie with sweet potato mash or a cheesy type mash, both are good if you want something different from normal mash 😋
Yes, I'm italian and I've been watching your videos for about 5-6 years I think? You were actually the first youtuber I subscribed to and started watching regularly. Actually I think it's because of you that I started watching youtube!!
Anyway, I don't usually comment but thank you for your videos and marry Christmas :D
We have those teas in the states! I got one years ago it was strawberry hibiscus😋 I think the brand was teavana.
You had me at blooming flower tea! Love those teas!..although kinda pricey where i stay~
