 Good morning everybody. Welcome back to another vlog. It's Friday. I just finished my nice little hour long walk outside listening to my podcast and I just got to my nail appointment because oh my God, I don't know if you can even tell but these nails are so grown out and just like so not cute. I got these like, I don't know, it's been weeks and weeks and it's definitely time to spruce them up a little bit, round them off, do a little fun like chrome or something like that. So first things first, while we start off this weekend vlog, I'm gonna do a little bit of maintenance and get these nails done, so let's do it. All right, just got my nails done. And honestly, like I was so excited to just sit down and listen to my podcast. I've been enjoying it so much and like I just need to know what happens next. There is actually so much trash in my car, oh my God. Anyway, I am going to head home and get some editing work done. It's about just before 11 a.m. And like the day is getting away from me so I need to go hunker down, do some editing and then we will check in later. We just got a grind for that paycheck. Mama told me one day I'll be famous. Remember when she used to say she hate this. That ended with life when I say shit. One day I'll be stomping on on stages. But right now we're just dancing in the basement. Got inside her face and said it's mine. Hello, it's a few days later. It's actually like Tuesday now. We had a great weekend. We actually drove and went to the beach for sunset. Had like a lovely time. Also we may have potentially looked at a house which I'll show you later in this vlog but for now it's Tuesday. And we decided we wanted to sit in the dark apparently. This camera is really struggling. There we go. We decided we wanted to go to the mall today. I want to get a couple things at Uniqlo. Drew wants to get a couple things there. We might go to the Century City Mall which is like a nice outdoor mall. It is a very like cloudy day so not ideal weather for it but you know, figure guide bring you along with us. And I also want to try a recipe if we have time that I mentioned in the last vlog. Today's outfit of the day is extremely casual. I am just feeling very cozy enjoying the nice cool weather. So here we have it. I have my take care of yourself Miss Remy Ashton merch which I absolutely love. It's so comfortable. And it says it on the back as well. So, so cute. I have just like black leggings, white socks and my Uggs and my glasses. Oh and my claw clip is pink too. I felt like doing a lot of pink accessories today. So anyway, let's hit the road. Run a couple errands, maybe get some lunch while we're out and about, who knows? And just have a fun little day together. Oh, by the way, my nails look amazing. Look how cute they are. I think I showed them, maybe. But they're like a unicorn chrome. It was one or two coats of baby pink and one coat of I think just like the regular unicorn chrome. So cute. Okay, let's go. Okay, so we're in Uniqlo now. The main reason I'm here is because of these freaking tank tops. These I swear by, I live by. They're everything to me. I wear them pretty much every single day. And these tank tops have like a little built-in shelf bra but it has padding or just like a slight bit of padding. So you're not nipping in it, you know? They only go to an extra large in store but I literally just grabbed one, two, three, four, five of them because I'm obsessed. So I got these two striped ones, which are new since I've been. I got this blue one cause I don't have it. I already have the cream gray and black but the cream one is like on its last leg. So I got another cream one. They have a nice tan neutral color and then also a lime green. So of course I got the lime green. They also have these. These are called Aerism cotton boat neck bra camisole and these look really cute too. So I might get like a purple one. Yeah, I decided to go for purple. I also saw these really freaking adorable lounge sets. I've been looking for something like this, like a kind of knit but not too thick sweater and pants just to lounge around him. I am this gray. This is looking very cute. We'll see what the sizing is like cause Uniqlo is like very small. Oh my God, it's so loud in here. What I'm trying to say is that these are really, really cute but they're just not long enough. I don't think the length is right. If they were super long, I would totally get them but they're just a little short so these are gonna be enough. It's not person boba. There you go. I got a strawberry smoothie with strawberry boba and drew out a brown sugar milk tea with brown sugar boba. Let's test it. That looks so good. Let's give it an initial taste test. The boba's chewy. Oh, it's not poppy? I like a really chewy boba but I was in the mood for like strawberry on strawberry. This is so good. All right, so I was gonna say it was a bit of a strikeout cause we actually didn't end up buying anything because there were things. I forgot this about Uniqlo, Uniqlo. Still not 100% sure how to say it but it's just hard to find like extended, they don't have extended sizing but it's hard to find the biggest size in their store and then like you were having a hard time finding your size as well. So I think we're just gonna place an order on mine for those things, cause if we're gonna be paying for shipping for like his stuff, then I might as well just add that in, you know? So anyway, but we did get these bobas. We did pay a dollar for parking but that's okay, it could be much worse and honestly, these bobas are really, really good. Like I really like this one. It's very sweet, but it's delicious. It's exactly what I wanted. Honestly, 10 out of 10. We decided to come sit out on the patio for the first time. Well, actually we sat out here, what, like last week to have our lunch. Bless you. Clearly allergy season and then it's kind of why we haven't been out here as much lately. Found the boss, Andrew. But also it's like a little sad cause this used to be like Laila and Boo's spot. So it's just been a little tender coming out here but we're doing our best. We got our lunch. I made a little snack plate cause I just had that whole boba smoothie but we have avocado, rice cakes, carrots and tzatziki, turkey and a string cheese. Oh and of course, I've got a passion fruit, because that is the flavor that I always get when I get my hair done at the salon and I loved them so much I had to get them for home. So anyway. I made a pizza. We're made a pizza. We're gonna have lunch and enjoy the beautiful sound. The avocado, the only avocado. Oh mommy. All right, just finished lunch outside. It was delicious but you know, there was a lot of construction. We have been a full disclosure. I've talked about this before but we have been like, it's really been getting to us like all the noise and stuff. It's like 10 times louder than when we first moved in but it's just part of like living it. I'm fully aware. I don't feel like I need to make a disclaimer but like I'm fully aware that it's just cause we live in a big city and that's just how it goes and that's totally fine. But like our neighbor's dog has just been like crying and barking nonstop and they always have their windows open which makes it more difficult. And we just live in a really busy area. There's just a lot of like foot traffic, a lot of car traffic, a lot of just like stuff in the area and a lot of construction. So it's just been kind of like, you know, something we've been thinking about and with our apartment being, you know, as expensive as it is already and then like our rent being raised at the end of our lease, we've started looking just to sort of see what else we could find within this either same price range or less. And we actually went and viewed a house the other day and like took a full tour of it just cause we've been curious. We wanted to see what we could get. Like wanted to see what else is out there basically. So I'll show you a little tour of the place that we looked at. It's really, really cute. It is a house which I mean, the thought that we could get like a house for less money than what we pay for this apartment is actually kind of crazy. It's a little further out, but like it was so cute. But yeah, I just like, I don't know. What's meant to be for us will be for us and we'll find like our perfect spot. But I think just occasionally as we go on in the coming months, we're just going to start looking and sort of see what it is that we can afford, see what it is that we can like get space wise compared to what we currently have. So yeah, here is a little tour of house that we looked at. Okay, so you walk your water running. Living room, it's not that big, but it's bigger than I thought. Yeah, you don't have to put a TV there. Okay, we have the kitchen. Yeah. So this would be fine for our stools, although we might need it. It is tight for a two car, but our cars are not that big, so. Okay, kitchen. Looks like brand new oven and dishwasher. Good. White microwave, but that's all. Got a pantry. Oh, nice. So shelves. Same fridge as our old place. Smoke detector on the wall in right next to the stove. So that might be annoying. Cabinets are fine. Yeah, the counters are good. Here's the backyard. Gotta take the trash out again. I don't know how I feel about that. We can get like little garden beds or something. Yeah, we could redo this. I mean, and this would be room for our old dining set. It looks like a bedroom overlooks. And there's like three big palm trees right here. That's nice. Whatever that is, I don't know. And it's like, you're definitely in here with your neighbors, but these floors are nice. Okay. Upstairs we go. Okay, so main bedroom. Cute. Got a nice view of the street. Okay. On suite. Oh, the toilet, that needs to be fixed. Yeah, the toilet is constantly running. Oh my God, I mean, nice. Nothing. It's kind of similar vibes to the house. This one is in better shape than that one. I'm like, these could use a good coat of paint, but like definitely not bad. That isn't cabinet is right here, which is interesting. And then we have another bathroom here. We can put our sconces back up again. We have another outlet and another outlet. Normal drywall. Another outlet. Cute. Okay, we have the half bath. Or no, it's a full bath. It's so California. Like, I don't know why that this. I mean, this is great. See, this reminds me of like my mom's. Yeah, old. Yeah, old. No offense, mom, if you see this. Okay, next. This. This could be like, yeah, an office, I guess. No, not good lighting. This is now snorkeling. Got a hall closet. Nice. Linen's. Oh, laundry. And such. Go ahead. Oh, I'm not. Well, yeah, that light needs to be replaced. I mean, that's nice because the laundry's downstairs. So that's it. Yeah, having your laundry be upstairs is like such a smart idea. I wonder if this used to be a bathroom and they just made it into a. There's a lot there. This is a third bedroom. That's it. This is the one that overlooks the backyard. See, all the bedrooms are north facing, which isn't ideal, but we'll see. That's all. You're filming your closet. You literally turned this into your entire. I know, but I don't know if I would have enough room. Actually, maybe I would. You have outlets for your lights. That's so true. I could literally film in here. So yeah, that was really cute. So I'm looking forward to seeing what else we look at in the future. There will definitely be like, don't worry. If we do end up moving, which we're like 50, 50 on right now. If we do, I will totally do like apartment tours, house tours, all that kind of stuff. Cause we want to look in this area and see what else we can get. And also like in other parts of LA and beyond. So we'll see what ends up happening with that. But in the meantime, I am going to, I think do like a little bit of computer stuff. And I was going to make like this cute little dessert recipe, but I am feeling just like that sugar from the Bobo was like too much. So we'll do it later, like after dinner or something. All right. So a few hours later, it is like, you know, 5.30, something like that. We are starting dinner. It's in the oven right now. And I figured I would make this little bark that I was talking about. And I just, I'm so curious about it. Cause I just don't know how I feel about peanut butter and strawberries together, but like I know the bananas will be good. If you missed the vlog where I was talking about, I think it was the last vlog. It's this thing, I think that's popular on social media where you cut a layer of strawberries and or bananas. You put a layer of peanut butter and then a layer of chocolate and then you freeze it and it turns into like a bark. We're going to, we're going to try it out. So I don't know how many strawberries we're going to use, but we're going to start with two of them. So I'm going to cut them into little slices. I've never done this, but I did see Merle O'Neill's video where she like kind of went through how to do all this. These could be redder strawberries, but that's okay. So I'm going to like lay them down in such a way that I'm going to try to like avoid any kind of like gaps, but we'll see. That should be all right. And then we will do whole banana as well. If it fits, I think it will. I suppose if you wanted to, you could do both, but like in one, you know, stack them on top of each other, but I just want to see what each of them tastes like. Lay down our fruit. We're making a fruit pie. So pretty already. Okay, cute. So here's what it's looking like so far. Got our strawberries and bananas. Ew. I hate this, I hate this banana string on me. I hate those. We're going to do no measurements because I don't think there are any and also measure with your freaking heart. We'll do like a quarter of a cup of peanut butter, probably. No, maybe half a cup. Drew is the peanut butter baby in real life. Like when Drew eats peanut butter. At the toe. Up, up. I don't have to do coconut oil, but I like to do that because it just helps it melt really nicely. It keeps it from seizing in the microwave as well. You can obviously do like a double broiler for the Jedi, but I simply don't have the patience for it. Let's do a little bit of that. There we go. So we'll pop these two little guys in the microwave as well until they're milked. Hopefully you can see this. So now you're supposed to take a layer of peanut butter and drizzle it right over the top. Enjoy the cooking ASMR sounds in the background. Just going to try to make sure it's like covering everything. Okay, got the layer of peanut butter and then finish it off with a layer of chocolate. I don't know if I'm going to have enough chocolate. We'll try our very best. This looks like a mud pie kind of. So we're going to put it in the freezer until we're done eating dinner and then hopefully it'll be good. I think you're supposed to freeze it for like 30 minutes, but I'm going to try it. It's going to be like an hour or so, but we'll see. Finished dinner and I forgot how intense the last tango and Halifax gets and like how evil one of the characters gets if you know, you know, but it is time to take our lovely bark out of the freezer and chop her up. So here's what it's looking like. What I want to like do with the bottom looks like. Ooh, looks cool. Here we have it. Let's chop it. I guess with a bark you kind of just do whatever, don't you? So you just go willy-nilly. Ooh, that's a very satisfying crunch sound. I guess we'll cut a couple pieces so that we get like both. I do think I could have done with like a thicker layer of chocolate, but that's all right. Are we just going to like eat this all day? It feels like it almost needs a little more time in the freezer. Hi, the peanut butter. Yeah. Okay. Should I arrange it on like a plate? Ooh. Just for presentation purposes. I eat these. Yeah, eat that. Let me know. Yeah, the peanut butter's not frozen at all. It's weird. Definitely want a banana piece. That's what I'm going for first. So here is what it looks like. Okay, let's try it. How long has it been? Like an hour? Yeah. I would give it like at least two hours, but like, we're just jacking it in. Mm, mm, mm. Okay, now I'm going to try a strawberry one. I was actually really unsure of like how I would feel about the strawberries with peanut butter, but it's, I think I like it better. Mm, mm, mm. I mean, 10 out of 10, look. To be expected, absolutely magnificent. Could be a little prettier. It's not going to be like super aesthetic, but it is going to be good. I promise you that. Wow. We got a couple of new lamps and it has improved our like vibes of our living room so much. One of them we needed to get a different light bulb for, but I got this one on Amazon. Oh my God. This looks like an orb of light. There you go. Now you can see it. It's like a Japanese paper lamp. And I saw a similar one to this on one of Chloe's She's videos. I don't know, my God, it was so cute. And so I got this one. It's from Amazon. I'll link it down below. It's so cute. We have my thrifted one that I've had forever. And then I did also get this little, kind of like Tiffany dupe on Amazon. I have been looking at like a state sales and all over the place. And honestly, I like, I haven't found the perfect one. And this one's just like tiny and cute. It has like a little switch down there for it. So we've got to get the proper bulb in it. Cause the one in here is like very blue and it's just like sterile and gross, but like how cute. So those are gonna be like helping set the vibe. You know what I mean? So anyway, we're gonna retire to the couch and watch our show. We are still watching Tokyo Vice. We're on the new season now and it's really good so far. Definitely recommend it if you like Japan, Japanese stuff, Yakuza stuff. Very, very interesting. But yeah, thank you so much for being here and for hanging out with me today. And I guess over the last like few days really and I will see you very soon in the next vlog. Bye.
