Hello LS fam and welcome back to the channel if you’re new here I’m Maru lifestyle vlogger and content creator and here on the channel I share all things home decor Beauty fashion and so much more okay we have a lot going on you’re probably going to see this

Sweater quite a few times because I’m filming a cooking video with my cousin a little bit later on and I I am keeping on this look this is the look um but I have some errands to run um I think I’m going to do my grocery shopping at

Walmart um grab a couple things I have everything I need I took the fried turkey over to my sisters um my brother and my sister’s house I’m going to go to Walmart to pick up a couple other things and run some errands and then when I come back I’ll be shooting the cooking

Video with my cousin the official cooking video is going to show up on another Channel but I’m going to show show you a sneak peek before it drops so stay tuned for that we have Beauty maintenance um eyebrow tinting lashes and a pedicure I want to do a quick haul

With y’all too and then yeah I think maybe tomorrow we’ll do the trader Jo’s grocery haul what else cleaning organizing I don’t even know it’s a lot going on but we’re going to get it done and I cannot wait to show you some sneak peeks of the cooking

Video with my cousin but like I said that’s going to be showing later on on an official Channel full official video at a later time all right let’s go ahead and run some errands and then we’re going to come back into the haul all right let’s go Bye W all right we are back home and I normally like to do my grocery hauls in the daytime like where the Sun is up so it’s like you know better lighting but um I have all the lights on and we’re just going to run through this real

Quickly what I’m doing is looking at the Walmart app I did it before I pulled off and thankfully I did because there was one item that was not in the bag well actually no it was in the bag but it was like somebody had used it girl my

Oxyclean was like H the the bottle that I had that they gave me when they brought the groceries out the liquid was down here the liquid was down here I said mm- no does this feel empty to you he was like yeah it does okay thank you

So he went and got another one um I’m looking at the list just to see um I’m looking at the list okay so what I do before I pull off is I will look at all of the items that they claim to have put in the car and just make sure

That I have everything before I pull off I could brighten this up I think it’s just the lighting oh that’s why I like day daytime daytime hauls are better but everything that I needed that I ordered was in the car car he did place in the

Trunk so I think we’re good to go I’m just going to do a quick haul and while I’m doing the haul I’m going to be looking at my phone to make sure I didn’t miss anything cuz when I get out there like I I’m not rushing but I’m

Kind of like going through the the you know the bags quickly I think I I covered everything I think we have everything anyway let’s just do a quick little haul so start with the groceries and then the household products last um I’m doing macaroni and cheese um this go around this week so

We’re going to do macaroni and cheese I have some cheese for sandwiches strawberry are for my mom for her you know consumption I have baby spinach spring mix um I love the Brio style bread U the artisano uh SAR brand Brio style for french toast so good but it’s also good

For sandwiches it has like a little sweet taste but I love it with like a turkey and cheese sandwich um hot dog buns we’re going to do some Halloween treats using cake mix and I got some um this is actually a classic white super moist um cake mix pack I got a supreme

Excuse me perfectly moist strawberry Supreme from my mom cuz she loves strawberry everything um cream cheese icing for both ketchup syrup um colla greens coffee creamer milk um doing some baking I don’t typically drink milk I do Alma milk but I got the 2% reduced fat

Milk because some of the things that I’m baking require that um orange juice and then I try not to I’ve been trying not to drink juices like that anymore I’m trying to just like water and like anything that’s like you know homemade like a tea or a

Lemonade but I’m telling y’all at the end of a week this was some crusan run oh my God actually know it’s a peach the peach flavor minute made I know has like artificial flavors they say 100% natural flavors but just like some syrup in there I’m trying to cut back I haven’t

Been drinking it like that been consuming a lot of water uh case and point in there a case of water on the floor that’s what I’ve been indulging in just to kind of get myself together for the holidays but my mom loves juice I do too and we’ll try some of the other

Juices like you know the simply and uh uh’s it called pure leaf just different brands but minute made best price you know you know how that goes lots of sugar but we’re working on it um avocado lemons banana um some drumsticks ground turkey I think I’m going to do meatballs instead of

Like ground turkey like you know doing like pasta sauce or meat sauce I think I’m going to use this for meatballs turkey meatballs with spaghetti and pasta sauce hot dogs Turkey um honey breasted um honey breasted thin sliced honey turkey breast Deli slices and then this was not what I wanted I

Got sausage links but they substituted the sausage links for for um sausage like patties because the links were sold out and I think that’s it um for groceries yes now let’s come over here to our household and I guess toiletries so to speak so some paper towel I had um

Yeah I only needed one roll so we just got that inflation is serious so we not buy we not buy anything in bulk like that unless we need it um I got fabric softener Clorox wipes Clorox cleanup um I love the lemon scent but yeah this is the lemon scent citrus lemon the

Oxyclean which we had to gather and get the girls together because they try to give me a half full bottle no no no no some crazy glue for some craft projects and just kind of some stuff like there’s a table that I bought from Goodwill that

I want to just like little things that I’m trying to like you know instead of spending money on furniture we going to fix what we have and spray paint it or paint it or just stay tuned um lotion deodorant and um makeup cleans and wipes lotion and deodorant are from my mom

Makeup cleans and wipes we both use um I typically would like to I know they say you’re not supposed to use it to take off your makeup but I like to use them for that sometimes or some nights you just don’t have time for all of that

Okay but sometimes I still like to use it before I do a cleanse on my face so before I get in the shower like to like wipe my makeup off and these come in really handy for my mom like before her facials or anything if I want to get

Like extra like you know oils from her skin whatever the day is you know just kind of get the day off her face so we got them okay and we use them and then on the staircase you can’t see I just got some undergarments for my mom and

Then uh a big thing of like laundry detergent and then a pack of I think I got yeah toilet paper toilet paper so we’re not going to go over there and get that stuff I’m just showing you what we’ve gotten this is typically um not what I would get from

The grocery store like our little weekly run or whatever it would be a little bit less than this but it was one of those trips you know you have those trips were like you need to get groceries and household cuz everything ran out it was one of those trips so anyway stay tuned

For cooking baking and lots of fun things coming up oh this week how could I forget speaking of um decorative icing in black red stay tuned and some writing gel and then they substituted my melting chocolate with almond bark vanilla flavored almond bark and I was like wait

A minute I didn’t I didn’t ask for this but I’m sure it’s going to be fun and is there anything else well there’s another Haul coming up later on in this Vlog of um several things throughout the house I’ve had like some things I’ve been

Sitting on for like a month or two from Amazon Target Walmart New cookware and so forth so stay tuned or maybe you’ve already seen it in this Vlog I don’t know we just we just going with the flow all right y’all let’s go ahead and pack the refrigerator I’m probably going to

Do that off camera see y’all later all right y’all so I want to go through a quick little haul with you of some items going into Black Friday I know Amazon’s going to have great deals Target has deals most of the target stuff is home decor like Christmas

Holiday decor and we’re actually pulling out the tree and doing all of that in this video so just want to cover everything that I’ve had sitting in bags or purchased recently with you because we haven’t done a haul in a little bit all right let’s go ahead so first things first from

Target is this fig mint asai wood cutting board oh my gosh so cute so Sleek every board has like a different look it has its own personality I wanted one that was like a medium kind of finish not too light and not too much you know we’ve talked about this before

If you’re new you probably haven’t heard but if you’ve been here on the channel I like my wood to kind of be like you know defined one color not like two tone and so I love the fact that it wasn’t too much variation like there was only a

Little bit here on the end I want it to be like a medium wood that matched the cutting boards and all the other stuff I already had but this is the what size is this this I don’t know what size I think this is a medium size I don’t know the

Measurements I will link everything down below in the description box but just want to share that I cannot wait to cook cook cook cook cook the cooking video today can’t wait to use this might not be using this but I can’t wait to use this in future cooking videos all right

The next item oh my gosh so cute so perfect for the holidays um are these gold serving you tensils from threshold Target threshold oh my gosh look at that so freaking cute for salad for your sides so sleep and it’s kind of heavy the set is kind of heavy I love the fact

That it has like this kind of like Hammer type of texture down the bottom um these were the price is not on here Target what is going on they used to have the prices on everything I think it was like $19.99 I know it was under $19.99 it was

No more than that maybe 14 but don’t you love those perfect for the holidays cuz you know know your girls going to have some gold metallics everywhere throughout the kitchen for the holidays but then also just really sleek and Chic for all year round so from Target and if

I have more than one of a item I’m just going to show you one because I don’t want to pull everything out oh it’s my Nutcracker I’m looking for my black Santa Claus but in the meantime every time I check it sold out but in the meantime I

Have this gold Nutcracker oh my gosh on a marble base and this was $25 I’ve had these for months I’ve actually purch I think I purchased some the minute they dropped the holiday stuff I went and I started picking up things I just didn’t have time to haul

With all the stuff that’s going on with my design business so this is the gold and marble Nutcracker and it’s on a marble base um this is a cookie uh press that says merry Christmas and I love the fact that it has the red handle really thinking

About what colors I want to do I already know what colors I want to do but really thinking about infusing red into my theme I just don’t know cuz I’m like I don’t want to do a traditional Christmas I think I’ll be ready to do like a green

And red traditional Christmas when I’m like in a new space a bigger home you know with child this is ooh yes yes yes this is um the Heart and Hand with Magnolia ston wear stainless steel stone wear and stainless steel mug with stencil so you

Can make like a latte and then have like the foam stencil design at the top trimmed In Like A Red Stitch type of border the top is trimmed in red and then this is $9.99 but then it has the stencil the stainless steel stencil and the picture is gone you can’t really

See but y’all know like the CAF is when they have like the design at the top so cute this was $9.99 like I said perfect gift idea what is this um ooh okay it’s not a his and her but you know you can use it for that or you can just

Use it if you like mugs it’s um a mug set this was from the um Bullseye dollar area I thought it was like more expensive than it was and I think somebody put it somewhere in the store I love when people do that put something down that I like and it’s

Like I found it here because it was meant for me um this was $5 two pack stockable mugs making spirits bright and T the season you know I’m a geek for the holiday mugs oh my gosh so there we go oh gosh y’all okay I thought I

Knocked the camera down okay last Target bag okay so in here ooh so these are from the target dollar section Bullseye dollar spot whatever I have larger trees that look like this so when I saw this year that they had these trees for $3 that look like the

One I could put these in my kitchen and use the bigger ones in the living room dining room ah I’m so excited so it’s a glass tree and you can basically open up the bottom and put like a tea light like a LED light on the inside which I’m

Going to do this year so cute ah trimmed in gold look at that oh my gosh I got to get my nails done I’m might just go get a pedicure and do some press on I think that’s what we’re going to do okay this is a slightly different texture so you have

This then you have this can y’all see I feel like it’s kind of bright cuz I have all the lights on and they’re both $3 was there another pattern same okay so I got two and two so two of these kind of like a X Type pattern I don’t if you can

See yep there you go and they look kind of iridescent here but they’re not it’s just like clear glass this is the third pattern so I thought in the store that these were the same but they’re not this one is just sleek and this one has like

Kind of like a two-tier type of tree Ridge see that oh cute okay at the Sleek one which I like cuz this looks just like the larger trees that I had from my DC apartment or DMV apartment DC area I bought four of the Sleek okay I’m

Confused I’ve had them in a bag for a while so I bought four of these one of these with a two tier Ridge I probably put this in a bathroom since it’s like solo and then two of these oh my gosh so pretty okay so I think that’s that for Target let’s move

On to Amazon okay I’m back so now we’re going to do Amazon um this is a space keeper classic storage cart it’s really for under uh cabinet storage and I have one down here but it’s really two they’re really two of them and they’re for underneath my

Bathroom I just thought it’s no need to have both of them downstairs just for the purpose of the haul so when I do my next bathroom organization video you’ll see these gra some stuff in oven bacon I heard you girl I’m coming let me go turn

This off I’m back so this is a bathroom organizer and it’s basically two twoti so it’s really not put together but it’ll have the perforated um shelf so that anything spills it kind of goes through and I think actually you know what I think I

Think I have four so each box comes with two yeah each box comes with two so this is one two and then the other box will be 3 four because I’m going to do two on each side cuz it’s a double sync bathroom so yeah just wanted to show you

Amazon bathroom organization coming up next up do we have anything else on Amazon yes we do um this is O this is a fleece throw blanket but I feel like I’m kind of off because this was like for Halloween and not Halloween but like when I was

Decorating with black or is it black I don’t even know what color this is don’t get me to lying I just know that I’ve had this stuff tucked up in a corner to haul and I should have hauled a long time ago but I will be decorating

With black again um stay tuned and some other colors so this is a black fleece blanket she’s not as big as I thought she was but she’ll get the job done she get the job done and of course we wash our materials before we use them our textiles five FACS okay the Amazon

Boxes are so like ambiguous it’s no telling what is this oh I know what this is it’s from my bathroom upstairs to go with the um organizers that I just showed you cuz we’re going to be doing a little revamp in there it is a toilet paper

Dispenser but when it’s mounted on the wall you’ll have this little shelf so you can rest your cell phone some poopery some air freshener whatever roll here and then storage shelf up top excited about that cuz the bathroom upstairs I have like a yeah a make overc coming

Ooh so these will be used in the living room these are puck lights and you know I’m a LED girl because the lights up above um the artwork lights have the remote controls these come with two remotes because it’s plenty of lights so I got two remote and then it’s the black

Puck Light I cannot tell you where they’re going but stay tuned cuz vlogmas baby vlogmas we got content out the wo so it’s it’s I’ll get out the way it’s one two three four five six Puck lights and two remotes so stay tuned we’ll be using all of them for a special project

That’s coming up here in the living room okay my battery died child my battery died and I was running my mouth let’s continue we have these already in black but we got them in gold for the holiday as you’ve seen before in the Kitchen near the coffee bar we have

These in Gold so instead of block we’re now changing to what go yes so we got two of these we have another Target box what is this oh I know what this is for the living room as well um we already have one and it went

On clearance so we got a second one for the other side of the living room all right so it is a brass tray I have one of these already in the living room on one of the end tables and I got a second one just for symmetry just for symmetry if you didn’t

Hear that okay and then last but not least this item was purchased last year it was purchased last year during Black Friday did you hear me did you hear me this item was purchased last year during Black Friday I did not open it and I think the reason I didn’t open

It is because it comes in two colors and I wanted one color and what that one color sold out so I got this color and then I got this color and I was like oh this is too nice like I don’t want to use this my good this is my special occasion

Set girl my special occasion set was never open because it really wasn’t what I wanted but I grew to love it and then I thought it was too pretty to use now what I do have aside from like my heavy duty ones let me stop talking

Thanksgiving week oh and this is let me take this off of the treadmill this is the wreath that we’re using this year on the front door simple Pine Spruce needles I believe and then the bells the girls I need Bells I need to hear who’s going and coming or when people are

Going and coming okay I totally missed this handle oh my God I did not see this sandle all right good morning y’all it’s the next day um just put a little bit of um coverage of my face and I’m headed out to um go to the work site to meet with

Two contractors we have multiple things happening today electrician and then a Concrete Finisher outdoor outdoors and then um what else we’re going to go to Trader Joe’s later on today it’s really B going to be like a erandy kind of Vlog because it’s a lot

Going on as far as my business but it’s also Thanksgiving week prep so I’m going to Trader Joe’s tonight um we’ll probably do Walmart because I have a order a pickup order I don’t have to go into the store we’re not doing that um so anyway let’s

Just go ahead and get on out um I thought about getting my pedicure today something about getting my pedicure like right before Thanksgiving or like the day before the night before after everything is done um for the most part you know besides the cooking on uh

Thursday morning so I think I’m going to get my pedicure and I’m probably going to do press on nails I’m just going to be honest because I’m not doing any projects in my house but just the ripping and running and I’m going to press on nails so let’s

Go to run these errands go to the work site and I’m going to probably show you how the concrete stuff looks afterwards I don’t know we’ll just see what I can show you maybe not going to show you anything but we have Trader Joe’s later on in the daytime and then

Um other stuff happening all right let’s go Bye He W D Okay I’m just going to try to go through this as quickly as possible some items I bought more than two of um like you know like bags are rice a Chim Chuy rice so I just pulled out one or two just to show you but I’ll reference things that I

Like to combine with them just to kind of give you an idea so let’s go ahead and just start with the food food items first um if you’re OG if you’re a day one you know I mean I’m saying OG like I’ve been in the game for that long I

Have been vlogging since 2020 on YouTube but um if you’ve been following me since then or if you’re new to the channel let me let you know that the artichoke and jalapeno dip is a amazing I have been raving about this since I started doing like you know Vlogs and reviewing

Different things on YouTube with regard to like food home lifestyle Etc so good not too spicy not too hot actually it’s not really hot at all it’s not spicy at all it has a little kick at the end that’s what it is it has a little kick

At the end so yummy I got two of them cuz I’m thinking about maybe just having um a friend or two over uh the weekend after Thanksgiving this coming uh weekend and chips and dip are already thing with some like wine call it a day

Um speaking of dip if you know me you know okay if you know me on YouTube you know that this has always been a staple I typically will go for this but I have to have this and it’s been a while cuz I was watching um my diet and you know

Things that are high in sodium I wouldn’t say that it’s that bad per serving um no it’s not bad at all it’s 250 Mig per serving however dip can be consumed Way Beyond the serving size as you know ain’t nobody eating no teaspoon or two tablespoons of dip and calling it

A day sometimes we will go through half if not all of a container anyway this is so good it’s chicken breast meat with cream cheese sour cream cayenne pepper sauce and shredded montere jack cheese I don’t know who makes it for them I guess shed Joe’s I don’t know but I’m telling you

It’s like a recipe like no other I’ve never tasted a buffalo chicken dip like this so please try it y’all please try it all right next up is this chimu rice which I absolutely love obsessed it gives me I know it’s like more of a um Peruvian stule but it gives me the

Perfect rice that I would serve when I have like taco night because of the kick to it um you can definitely do it like with you know like perivan style chicken like a Cornish hand baked chicken but I love to do with foods that are like salsa cheesy you know what I’m saying

Like burritos tacos and soap forth it is so good I can eat it by itself I love adding shrimp to it so good but it is one of their best sellers the perian style Chim chery rice with vegetables please check it out I’m telling youall you will not be

Disappointed and then of course you know I used to do my um one baked or one pan baked dish with like sausage red onions brussels sprouts so I’ll make like turkey sausage brussels sprouts red onions and sweet sweet potatoes like chopped up this way I don’t have to buy

The sweet potato and chop it up myself I can just basically we put it on the pan with the other ingredients olive oil sea salt black pepper and bake but this I think I’m just going to have with like maybe some um collar greens after Thanksgiving I tend to have a lot of

Collard greens macaroni and cheese and then like sweet potatoes we typically won’t cook cuz we have like another type of um potato stuffing thing we serve but I’m craving sweet potatoes that are cubed and like roasted so I like to grab these around this time just so that when

I’m bringing home leftovers from Thanksgiving I can roast these bad boys and throw them on the plate with whatever leftovers I have if that makes sense I’m not about my soup because I forgot to get my cheese Wafers my sharp cheddar cheese Wafers but these are so

Good I’ll make my um tomato soup Sometimes some scratch I didn’t feel like doing that and getting heavy cream and doing all that stuff so I just went ahead and grabbed um the two that I love the organic tomato and roasted red pepper soup this one is just like the

Creamy tomato but has a little bit more of a kick as you can tell the red pepper pepper and then the creamy tomato soup which just a classic with like a grilled cheese so good um sodium you know if it’s going to be um pre-made the sodium

Might be a little bit High the sodium on this is 710 Mig and the sodium on this one is 740 so if you are one that’s watching your salt you might want to water this down a little bit monitor your uh portion size but it’s so worth the purchase they’re so

Yummy next up um you saw in my fall decorating video video I think I did put one of these in there or maybe I didn’t I don’t remember but when I was decorating I was eating these honey I was eating these crumbling them up putting them in yogurt I was even

Crumbling them up and putting them in octivia yogurt okay the Greek healthy yogurt I was crumbling my mug cookie hanger um gingerbread guys into but I’ve restocked for the holidays and so I’m calling this my um pre Christmas or should say pre Vlog must stash and then

This is the stash I’m going to have during um the holidays like you know well after Christmas too so it comes with how many it comes with approximately 16 cookies um in a box and they’re so yummy crunchy spice cookies designed to fit the room of any mug they

Fit all of my mugs and I love putting them like in ice cream or topping them on yogurt it doesn’t have to be like coffee or a mug or hot chocolate um yeah I just love it it’s so cute so festive um without all like the sprinkles and

All that mess you know just kind of simple and to the point and yummy all right next up I’m speaking of gingerbread is this gingerbread ice cream I’ve never had it before but I was tempted I’m going to pop a picture in here I walked by and it felt like I

Heard the angel’s voices telling me to stop right here and grab one um grab a pint and I can’t wait to let you know how it tastes it says gingerbread ice cream with triple Ginger Snap cookie pieces and a gingerbread swirl so stay tuned tuned for the review on that I

Have some Danish butter cookies which is a tradition around this time for lots of Caribbean people growing up with these tin cans and then not knowing what your grandmother or grandfather was using the can for later on typically sewing supplies but yeah danish cookies um are

A tradition in um the Caribbean and I just decided to grab these then I have um these traded juill peppermint pretzel Slims these I have last year I’m going to fill my jars let me show you real quick I’m going to fill my jars I think

This was actually what was in here I got some more peppermint um bark but I think I’m going to maybe I’ll do my jars um during vlogmas if not today but I’m going to fill these jars with all of my holiday snacks um being the pretzel Slims um

Maybe I might put the cookie hangers maybe I could put some of those guys in one of these and what else the danish cookies I don’t know might keep this container but I like the aesthetic you know appeal of my my jars so yeah oh and my chocolates I’ll definitely be put my

Chocolate I got to buy some more um giradelli peppermint um bark candies and caramel but I’ll be filling my DRS maybe tomorrow or later on this weekend but the peppermint slims are so good thin crunchy pretzel Slims with candy coating and peppermint sprinkles and the calories are 140 so they’re not bad at

All and then um these actually some last year um I just have it still a peppermint chocolate chunk cookie mix I’m probably going to make this with my nephew one day and speaking of nephew I got him one of these last year it’s a hot coco po bear they have them again

This year it’s white milk chocolate confection filled with milk chocolate drops and marshmallows you put it in your hot chocolate and it dissolves and melts away um I have some more of the stirs I do have more of these from last year but this year they added like a little more

Flare with the pink the ones I got last year were just like chocolate with the white marshmallows it’s a salted caramel hot cocoa stiring spoon with mini marshmallows I don’t if the one from last year was salted caramel flavor I think it was just a plain hot cocoa but

Either way I just picked up one cuz they’re 99 and then I have the Trader Joe’s candy cane with cocoa cream filled Center I don’t know if this was meant to be a stir I’m not eating this just freehand I’m going to put it in something and stir so I’ll probably as a

Hot chocolate stir and then um I have my one of my favorite things from my DC apartment days if you are an OG or day one is this sparkling Berry lemonade and it’s so sweet so yummy but I love pouring this just by itself not mixing it with anything pouring this like

During breakfast during the holidays to kind of kickart or to end the day with some dessert I love love love love love this but it’s a brunch favorite for me it’s a brunch favorite and then my non food items I have some peppermint Foaming Hand and soap I don’t if I’m

Going to put it on the sink over here or put it in one of the bathrooms just a little festive little red here and there um some hot cocoa whipped body scrub I heard people on the aisle talking about this and I just creeped up behind them

Excuse me excuse me do you mind reached in between them and got one for myself I was like say less okay um it is hot coco scented whipped body scrub and it’s an 8 oz so yeah and then this is also 8 oz this is the shimmering candy cane body

Butter so that’s a scrub this is body butter to give you a little Sparkle Sparkle during the holiday smells so good I can smell it through the plastic y’all these two products you can smell them up close through the plastic o anyway stay tuned for reviews on those

Items that I have yet to try have yet to open let’s go ahead and move on to my little itty bitty tiny grocery haul or haul from Little LL all right so from Little LL I just like saying that I got a couple things um some cheesecake slices for a little romantic situation

With some like white dessert wine um I am obsessed with these macaroons because one is a vanilla filled and then the other one is coffee I’ve had them before and I felt like coffee ones give me more energy than my coffee did I don’t know but they’re only 150 yeah 150

Calories per serving um 310 per container so yeah I really love the coffee ones the vanilla ones are good but the coffee ones are actually the vanilla ones are great cuz they’re sweet very Gourmand sweet you know dessert the coffee ones have a sweet taste to them

But the coffee is like oo with some coffee or tea so I look forward to having these probably like you know Thanksgiving morning or like going into Christmas time and then finally I’ve had these for a little bit I didn’t get these on this like run but I wanted to

Pull them into this like little haul cuz it’s from Little these are um the cutest little soap and lotion sets and it comes with like this wood um board like that’s already cut out for the bottle to kind of keep them off of the countertop I

Think that is so cute and I’m a gourmand girl so I love almond this flavor is sweet honey almond hand soap and lotion and then this one is pumpkin pan waffles anything that is sweet Pecan almond vanilla it’s it’s all me okay so yeah I’ll probably put these um out for

Thanksgiving and replace the ones that I have I don’t know but maybe I could put them in the bathrooms upstairs that’s that and then I got some fresh flowers I mean you got to have some flowers for Thanksgiving I love like when they put a little spray of

Um the Eucalyptus in it it just oh but I got to get these back in the water because I’ve had them out on the counter for like maybe like an hour and they’re looking like girl what are you doing so Rose is my mom she picked these out and

I told her we’ll mix them with this just to give it a little bit more red let me make it a little more festive I can’t do like the yellow too much yellow I like it to kind of be like Reds greens oranges darker colors during the fall

You know the sunflowers they actually scare me a little bit but we’ll leave that alone I it’s a long story just it just scares me we’re gonna put that together maybe in another um portion of this Vlog it’s going to be a long Vlog
