NEW Bookstore, Cozy Café, Candles & a Massive Wardrobe Declutter 🌼 Spring Clean Vlog (feel-good)
Hello, friends!
This was the perfect rainy city Sunday-- A delicious breakfast and coffee in the city at Sweetpea Bakery folklwed by a rain walk, which led us to a brand NEW bookstore! To top it all off, I managed to also significantly declutter my wardrobe and enjoy a cozy childhood movie (The Parent Trap). It's simple, really heart-warming days like these that make life feel good and happy. Thank you so very much for being here to share this day with me ❤️
Big hugs,
Morgan

Morgan-I’m watching in 2024. I do enjoy your adventures w/Landon & Roo. I’m decluttering starting w/my clothes too in a couple days. So nice to see you tackle & accomplish yours. Ty much.
The way Roo jumped onto the pile of clothes.. "thanks for the new bed, mama!" 😹
We appreciate your effort and hard work. God bless you and your family.

Sending you love and hugs, sweet Quite Life friend! ♥️
I love a good spring cleaning/declutter video. Seeing you, Landon, and Roo just makes my day 1,000,000 times better and feel cozy and comfortable.
I feel like this was somewhat a very different piece of content and I really loved how you took us along on the journey, I really, really loved it, Morgan ❤️
Morgan, you should get some canvas bins to go in your upper cabinet. It would make it so much easier to store and take things down. They are very reasonably priced. I love them for storing out of season clothes!
Such a cozy, lovely video! Did you know that I always save your videos to watch on Sunday mornings? It requires a lot of self control haha but it's such a treat to watch your adventures in bed, with a steaming cup of coffee and my dog snoring beside me lol - it's the perfect mood! Love, love, love your work, Mo! Thank you so much for sharing your light with us
I've been reorganizing and decluttering my way through the house, garden, and eventually garage. Every area I complete feels so good. I started on the wardrobe first, then got sidetracked. 'll probably save the rest of the wardrobe for the last household project. It's inspiring to see you accomplish yours! Now that spring is finally peeking in, garden tasks will take priority. And the garage is definitely a summer project.
This video gave all the cozy feel good vibes! ☕️💕📚🌞 Thank you for bringing us along on your adventures Mo! Your videos help me to appreciate the simple moments of life and be grateful for all of it.

Cafe recommendation, if you're ever in North Portland-- Wonderwood Springs! I think you'd love it, Morgan. It's a fantasy themed cafe for adventurers run by artist Mike Bennett. And then pop by Cathedral Park with Roo, there's a dog park there, and it's beautiful under the bridge!

What a lovely video, Morgan! Love your tattoo. We have a new bookstore in town and I need to visit it. A client gave me a gift certificate for Christmas. I need to go check it out. You've inspired me with your closet clean out. It's the last thing I need to declutter upstairs. I've put it off for far too long. Parent Trap is my favorite Disney movie and you've inspired me to play it and clean out my clothing! Thanks for sharing that bookstore with us! Hello to Landon!❤
I always love seeing my favorite city again with the rainy walks, cozy cafes and bookstores, yay! Your dog is sweet and looks like the one I lost in february, inspiring wonderful memories. Thanks for taking us with you on your lovely NW adventures!
Thank you for another lovely video. I think the universe was at work again…showing the book, Beloved Dog, it seems it was just for me. I lost my beloved dog this week. She was the best furry friend and companion I could have ever asked for. I am quite heartbroken. I think I may need to get this book as a part of my grieving/healing process. And seeing your video made me smile when I didn’t have much to smile about. Thank you, Morgan!

Hi Morgan 💚🕯. The candles you referred to as pillar candles are actually called taper candles. Taper candles are my favourite type to use, and my favourite to write by as well. Pillar candles are something different - they are wider, and free-standing (can sit on the desk by themselves without having to slot into a candle-holder). The trouble I find with pillar candles is that they often burn down in the middle of the candle, which causes a wall around the wick/flame blocking the light a bit, with the wick sitting in a pool of wax, as well as all that candle-wax being wasted. Taper candles - the ones you showed in the video - don't have those issues, which is why I love them. They give good light, don't drown, and don't waste the wax. Beeswax taper candles are my ABSOLUTE favourite, because of the warm light, the beautiful warm scent, it's a natural material, they don't drip everywhere, and they burn more slowly. They are more expensive, but they are more dense, and they definitely last longer. I always put them on my wish-list that family asks for at christmas and birthdays. 🕯🕯🕯

Yes to beeswax candles! I live in Germany now, and I stock up on beeswax taper candles at the Christmas markets each year. They're more expensive but they really do burn for so much longer.
Sweet Morgan it’s Soooo Good to see you smiling in front of the camera. Sending warm hugs from across the pond 🌸🇬🇧 💗

You do certainly shine brightly in this video😍 the tattoo is lovely and I hope it will guide you back to your joy when you struggle😊 also - I love the way you circumvent buying books by getting Landon to buy them for you😂 did a similar thing where I tell myself books I basically didn't spend money for don't count as a book bought😂 such a good video❤
Your tattoo! 😭❤
This inspired me I need to go through my clothes. And you don’t have to justify getting a tattoo to anyone!❤

Love you two guys, and love your beautiful Rue dog. I thought that paper behind the books, was stunning, set them off so well in the book shop. That book - Klara and the sun - I loved it, but it was also sad at times. You both look so full of joy together. That pink wig really suits you Morgan! Blessings, hugs and love, from Jilly, and licks from Madge, in sunny Devon, England. xxx
Have a book tipp for you guys: Cauley "Briedie and Finn" You will LOVE IT. Have a wonderful week!
I wish my life was as pretty as yours. Love your videos. Thank you.
Even though it was something different I really enjoyed this week and just made my sunday🥰🤍
12:57 Love that easy access closet, eight feet in the air! Pretty safe to say, anything in there can be donated away..
I was sooo happy when I opened youtube this morning and saw that a new video would be up in a matter of hours, I really couldn't wait to watch it after work. It's probably getting boring, seeing as I always write this, but your videos are just so much fun to watch and bring me immense joy. I watch them over and over again, they are a sort of happy place, and they are really comforting. :) So thank you for that, really! Also, you got a tattoo!! That's super exciting!! :D

@@MorganLong It is surprising, but I also understand it from your point of view, I'm very similar. I do genuinely think though that your videos are pure sunshine and joy. :) ☀Also, you come up with such incredible special effects and filming solutions, like when you decorated your home for Halloween. I loved it!! This is my all-time favourite youtube channel for so many reasons. ☺
So sad to yet again miss a premiere. Just can’t get my notifications to work anymore. 😢 But enjoyed this video to end a relaxing Saturday. 😊 Loved “Happy Birthday” in the bookstore! Tomorrow is my birthday so it felt perfect. 😁❤️🎂 Such a fun looking bookstore! I was at Annie Bloom’s Books on Monday and couldn’t help, but wish you’d happen to pop in while I was there. 😉 Love your tattoo btw … so perfect for Sunbeams & Happenstance!! ☀️☀️☀️ Thank you for the sunshine you spread!! 😊❤️
Ahhh, what a sneaky way to get around the no book buying year! You are giving me closet cleaning vibes as I must downsize my wardrobe for a move. I have been sitting on it for too long and now I am wanting to get the job moving along.
Sunday evening fav! Now I'm ready to face the music on Monday morning because I'm working on believing in myself.
Looking forward to this cozy video my friend. I have been recovering from surgery so this will be a great mood lifter along with this wonderful sunny day in Portland. Love Sweetpea Bakery but have not been there in some time. Miss the Herbivore shop that was nearby. I understand a vegan cheese shop has taken over the space. Also love visiting new bookshops and de cluttering.

Dear Morgan thanks for being such a big inspiration in how to enjoy life. A long time I could not watch your Videos without tearing up every time because you life my dream life, living together with a dog and boyfriend who seems to enjoy spending time with you. My relationship was so toxic and lonely with a man who prioritized his stupid work over me and no matter how hard I tried to enjoy my alone time just like you show us it made me sick, lonely and absolutely emotionaly starved. But somehow I gathered the strength to run away from him (he was the love of my life so far...) and I hope I can perfect my self care now like you do it... and find a family like you have. You kept me remindimg through all this time what my true needs are (crying).... so I see it as inspiration to somewhen have a home and a family, too.

Hi Morgan, I am doing an aggressive decluttering and wardrobe re-organizing as well! As you did, I thought I was a minimalist too but the pile of clothes says otherwise... PS: the bookstore is lovely, plus it's interesting to see the new books out in the US from a European perspective. I added a few titles to my TBR. Thanks for this lovely video!

Love it! The tattoo is so cute!! Also, I'd been wanting to watch The Parent Trap on Saturday morning for weeks but I was embarrassed, thinking my husband would make fun of me. When I finally told him he made popcorn and a fruit plate and we watched it together and he said he liked it! (He usually watches horror movies).
