How I Make Mashed Potatoes 🥔🥔🥔
Boil water, add peeled and chopped potatoes and bay leaves. Boil till potatoes are falling apart. Take out the leaves and drain the water. Add a generous amount of butter, and mash the potatoes with butter. Add hot milk and mash till it looks perfect. I add salt after I drain the water but you can add it while potatoes are boiling. Enjoy! 😋

Yeahhhhh. Two videos in one week. I've really missed your sweet family. I've been watching since your video "Living in a Russian apartment".
Same here🩷
@@susieq2334hello from Poland 🇵🇱 and rural living! ( channel 😊)
Me too!
You are one of the most real moms on RUclips. Thank you!
Some tips, if that's ok. Be sure to tether the tall cupboards to the wall so they don't fall forward onto you or your child! (connect the top part of the cupboard - maybe 3/4 of the way up - with a strong cable/wire so it doesn't tip forward). If you can't, put very very heavy things in the bottom only.
Even the Ica chest of drawers must bee tetherd 👍
If more then one drawer is opend it will fall over
Came here to say this, too! Furniture like cupboards and dressers are very dangerous for kids unless attached to the wall to prevent tipping. ❤
Some small L brackets would do the job on either side, you could get some rugs if you can, it will help with sound. Nail varnish remover for pen marks, hope you got a discount for the marks!
We had a wardrobe when I was growing up. My little brother grabbed me around the waste when I was getting something in it and pulled it down on both of us. Thankfully we were ok. That is a very good tip!
There some stuff called goof off that removes marker. If you can't get it there let me know. I'll send you some .
I loved the chaos of this video, honestly. 😂 relatable and authentic, plus quite funny hahaha. The apology to the downstairs neighbors. 😂
Rubbing alchool works like a charm to remove marker stains from furniture.
Was going to recommend this or acetone as a last resort.
Or Mr clean eraser If she can get it
You are inspiring in many ways. My wife and I raise our kids on a budget with simple housing, basic furniture, and home cooked meals from scratch. I kind of feel like we're the only ones doing that sometimes. We just do what we can afford and are happy with it. Your attitude of trying to remain positive with the simple things in life is so refreshing.
NEVER Apologize to the kids interrupting or anything...for a Vlog hte completely "ORGANIC" feel works. You're not trying to hide or make your life look like somthing it's not and that's what brings me...that and Toyla is a trip to watch his reactions a lot of time, especially his reaction about pie LOL
i love his smiling and giggling so adorable together that family arent they.
Hand sanitizer......clean most makes of anything.....
Agree!
Might want to anchor the bookcase and cabinets to the wall
Absolutely, many kids are huŕt when they climb them and they fall on them if they are not anchored.
Take a highlighter and go over the permanent marker and wipe with a cloth should come off. I’m a teacher and had to do that with desks a lot. Hand sanitizer also can work. Love your videos
Dry erase markers work like this, too.
Yes, working in preschool I can tell you, hand sanitizer works!!!!
I can't believe they wrote on your furniture like that!! You were calmer about it than I would have been. :)
I love the cat just doing laps around the house 😆
Ai je bien entendu bon appétit en français ? Vous aviez raison de bien vous restaurer pour cette journée de rangement avec deux petites demoiselles qui vous tournaient autour 👏👏👏 une jolie famille avec des parents toujours souriants !
Gosh, their cats are so cute
@@eleanor7748greetings from Poland 🇵🇱 and rural living! ( channel 😊)
Great vlog ! you might want to secure the units to the wall so they have no chance of toppling over
To go from your Father's flat and your first Georgian flat that had almost too much storage to this flat with no storage must-have been so frustrating for someone who is so tidy and organized. I hope you feel more at home soon with everything in its place!
It is so interesting to see Adeline becoming a toddler, A similar ago to Agatha when I first started watching your vlogs. Agatha clearly likes being her Mom's helper.
It's heartbreaking as now is the time, with 2 kids, she needs order in her life and family
You have a lovely family. Also I love the view from your apartment! I have a nice home, but our view is awful. They're building a lot of apartment buildings now, and it used to be empty fields. And it's become very noisy. 😢
Awesome furniture!! But, as has been mentioned, please secure the tall cabinets to the wall in a stud. That way they won't fall over.
I love the new furniture and white will brighten and lighten any room you put it in. You have excellent organizational skills. Agatha is such a good little helper and Adeline just busies herself with playing. Dinner looked delicious with the fresh vegetables. Take care sweet family.
Lunch looked delicious especially the mashed potatoes.
Thanks for the video Vika💗🥰 it's always so nice to see your beautiful family and your lovely home!
About the furnitures, I think the reason they were already assembled, dirty and marked is because the company brought pieces to you, which were displayed/exhibited before at the company. Like in IKEA's showrooms or maybe in a shopwindow.
Maybe the permanent marker-pen markings on them were some guidelines or placement indicators, maybe meant something for the employees of the store. The dirt and dust on them maybe collected in a warehouse, where they were stored after displayed enough and until you ordered it.
Jumping on a different topic, Victoria you are excessively beautiful, not to mention your amazing personality with (despite the dozens of previous hard or stressful events in your life) infinite caring and cuteness, Toyla is super lucky being next to you :) I hope your family will always successfully overcome any difficulties that this world and life brings up.
Greetings from Hungary!
the girls are so cute as they try to help you out! Your family is soo cute!!
Love this clip. A day in the life of Vika! You are so natural, you don't let the chaos get you down and you let your kids enjoy time with you as well. This, is the real life. Your girls are so cute and growing fast. Love to you and your family, and the cats too!❤
You’re doing a great job momma 👍 your videos are so real!! I’m also a mom of two and watching your videos makes me feel like I’m not alone in this struggle of working, housekeeping and parenthood in general. Thank you 🙏🏻
Oh it’s wonderful to have another video so soon. ❤
Your girls are so precious!! Love your cooking!!
I could hang out with you and watch these org videos all day, but your face when you apologized to the neighbors was priceless ❤️😂
Of course I can't speak for all your viewers, but I'm a mom, and I have reasonable expectations for moms who vlog 😂😅 dont worry about interruptions bc I expect moms to have to stop and address their kids, and its cute to see them interact, and its just real life. Otherwise you'll be editing foreeeevvverrr and that takes so much time. That's just my 2 cents worth - meaning that's my unimportant opinion 🙂 you got so much done with your organizing 🎉🎉
Я очень рада снова увидет ваши видео! Надеюсь, что всё хорошо, и ура организации :)
Hello Vika, I used similar drawers, sometimes the whole thing can lean and fall if all drawers are full and opened at once, it can be unsafe for the children.
Yeah, that's not really new furniture. They might have been floor display models that were collecting dust in a back room.
If you have full sets of sheets with matching pillowcases you can use the organization method of folding the sheets and putting them in their corresponding pillowcase. I think I saw Martha Stewart do that many years ago.
You have two great, little girls and Agatha, appears to watch over her little sister. Nothing makes life easier than having a lot of storage areas! Great job mom! Hugs to all.❤❤❤❤CarrieJo/NC😊
Good work! Regarding the plastic vacuum sealed bags, if you have room under the bed, you could store them underneath.
Also, Mr. Clean Magic Sponges remove marker, ink, crayons, etc.
Thanks for the fun video!
You can take off the markers with alcohol. I don’t know what it’s called there, it’s sometimes called rubbing alcohol in the US, in Australia they refer to it as isopropyl or ethyl alcohol. But I’ve found it’s the most effective way to remove markers from smooth surfaces.
Yes, and if that is grease pencil on the mirror, gently scraping as much as possible off with a knife and then taping a pad soaked with acetone to it should do the job. Baking soda and water paste can be useful too.
So so happy to see your videos back. Your family and your way of life is such a breath of fresh air in a very stressful world ❤️
I’ve missed you and your videos. I love seeing the girls growing up! I can’t wait for more organizing and life videos. ❤
I watched this while taking a break from doing a big spring cleaning of my home. I was so anxious to see you get started, I jumped passed the talking part in the beginning.😂😂😂Your girls following you everywhere reminded me of when I would come home from work and my oldest daughter would follow me around talking and talking and followed me even into the bathroom. They grow so fast, just enjoy.
Thanks for always being an inspiration, Vika ✨🦋 The girls are so sweet trying on all the clothes as you organized them :) Simple yet very special memories!
Vika, life changes so much, geez the difference between early 2022 and now - you look amazing. I love your honest lifestyle blogs. ❤
Love these video, so simple but yet so refreshing. Such a sweet family. Im going to declutter my whole house tomorrow you've given me inspiration. ❤
I'm so glad you were able to get some furniture. You're doing so good with making everything work for your situation. I use the vacuum bags to store other seasons of clothes and other stuff under the bed.
Thanks for sharing your special time with me ! I am an empty nester now , my son is grown .It brings good memories back watching you as a young wife ! You are a sweet young wife and mom ! I miss your post when I don't see them !
But this light...this light in the living room! I'm in love!
This hair style is the best on you, stylish cute clean everything 👊🏻👌🏻
A lot of viewers came to us from your channel after you mentioned us. Thank we appreciate and happy to see y'all😊
Plastic storage bins are good for everything. I like all your organizing. Looks good.
Love your wonderful family! The flat is so nice and now it is complete with the new pieces of furniture, which are indeed so useful. Fantastic view from the windows and the table is placed in the right place!! Agatha is a little girl and Adelina is so cute! Thank you for sharing ❤
It's a lot of work to get organized with new furniture but I know you'll love it once it's done. You're turning your apartment into your home. I'm so happy for you to be able to making another step in settling in 🎉
That edition of Jane Eyre is so 😍 pls give us a book tour next time 💜✨
Your cat is sooo pretty!!!
Your lunch looked so good!!
Love the vlog. Your children are so sweet and you are a lovely family
We I was in the military & moved a lot & no money I used regular Boxes 📦 to organize things in. And when I got next paycheck I got contact paper ( its actually sticky plastic w designs)
. The one I used as a dirty clothes box lasted yrs. As to the markers u can try alcohol( removes most ink) or nail polish remover , WD-40. also removes lots of sticky stuff. Or a strait edge raiser blade ( for shaving)
Love the table by the window!
So great about the new forniture and maybe, when you guys will have a bit of time, painting or cleaning the doors frames from the extra white paint of the walls would be really nice having a great general impact on the rooms ;)
Hey, the black marker can be removed with clear alcohol, just spray it on and let sit for a while. The marker is alcohol based and adding alcohol just dissolves it
A busy day organizing! Wow you have so much energy…🥰
I absolutely adore how Agatha wants to help with everything! She will literally put her hand to anything!
I love your home/family!!!!!❤❤❤
I love your videos because they are real life. I've missed you for a month so was happy with this video. You family is adorable❤
Your English is so good that it's hard to believe that's not your original language.❤
Please make sure you attach the tall furniture to the wall. Children are killed all the time from furniture falling on them.
make sure you attach the tall shelf to the wall so the girls dont turn it over on them...
Love the energy!
Thank you for the video, it's good to see that you guys are OK! It's challenging to make everything in place with kids, but you're doing a great job 👏 Hugs from a fellow Russian expat family in the Netherlands 🇳🇱 🤗
so sorry your new furniture arrived in that condition. unfortunate that that is the norm in Georgia. Over here, we bought our furniture from a store called West Elm. If it arrives in less than excellent condition they offer to either take it back for a full refund or a 30% off to keep it! needless to say, we've always accepted the 30% to keep it because it is such a great discount! great video as always.
I'm sorry, I don't understand. Are you saying that *all* brand new, store bought furniture in Georgia comes in bad condition like this? All dirty with drawing and markings all over it? 😮
I honestly thought this furniture Vika bought was second hand and used. I honestly can't believe this is the condition brand new furniture comes in and people are just supposed to accept it as normal. You'd probably be better off just buying used. 🤷♀️
I still have vacuum sealed bags of my children’s clothing in a closet. My kids are 38 and 28 years old! It’s just a few things I couldn’t bear to get rid of. It must feel very good to get things organized. I’m obsessed with having things organized as well. Good job.
How lovely for you all!!❤
Love the truth in your videos, it is heartwarming. Thank you! I Always see your films as a foreground of a bigger picture about contemporary reality. It does not let me forget, what is happening out there, but it definitely brings to the mind how loveable life is in all the details. This is my favourite channel!
Isopropyl alcohol / rubbing alcohol will usually remove marker without damaging the furniture.
love how real this is
If you have hair spray..... sometimes that removes black marker.... give that a try! It almost looks like they expected to put knobs there, but it sure is crazy that they did it!
A wonderful video! You are so busy!😊❤
Thanks for posting this lovely vlog it ends my friday perfectly ❤
So happy you got all of that storage!!
You have a beautiful family and home girl!!!
I love watching your vlog Victoria,,,thanks for sharing your ideas,, ❤
Love love love your video!!! So much fun! Your home energy you create is beautiful!! You are amazing!! Wishing you only the best!! Big hugs from a family also with two girls from Bulgaria! ❤
You work so hard!!! Thank u for sharing
What a pleasure to see you! 😄
The new storage looks like it will be so great for your space! If I were you I’d put a hanging rail mounted to the wall above the long wardrobe for more hanging space. This has also made me want to declutter!
Magic eraser good for the mirror job; kids are so adorable Agatha putting that pretty dress on awww; so happy to see more settling in - lots of groceries food looked good. Lots of clothes to sort through kids grow so quickly. cheers from Canada
It's fun to watch you organize! As you were cleaning the wardrobe, I thought, "Oh, she missed a spot." Then I realized my computer monitor was just dirty 😂
Thank you for another video. Nice to see you. I could watch you every day. Kind regards. 💓💓💓
It must feel so good to have your things more organized and up off the floor! I myself have resorted to, "Let's just wash everything."😅🤪 Hope this weekend is special for your family🌷🌸🪻
Victoria Terekhina ThanksMuch for posting !
That meal looked really fresh and delicious.
Thankyou for another video so soon. I can sense your excitement, at finally being able to organise things as you want. You did a good job of cleaning the pieces up. How disappointing they came with marks on them. Adeline looked adorable wearing those Tshirts like scarves on her little head.
Great video! Thanks!
Your girls are wonderful! And so are you!
I love each of you, Wonderful Family , God Bless you All😙😙💖💝💖💝😙
Nice to see you slowly improving your home! I hope we get an updated apartment tour soon :)
So good to see you and your family. Good to see you have some closets and dressers, now you can organize your things at last. Love to you all from Michigan USA
2 gorgeous daughters!!!!!
I watched your video just before redoing a bedroom for my grandchildren. You really inspired me to organize! Thanks!❤️
Thank you for a great video!
Great job!! Can you maybe put plastic baskets under the bed for your vacuum packed clothes?
The girls are growing up so much! Always love your videos,real life!
Love the wardrobe organizing and your assistants 😁😁
Wow, good work! 💪
