I feel the same about the whole Peter Monn thing. He's really gotten me through some times. I really hope he's okay and will be okay knowing everything that happened 😔

I think life stuff in vlogs gives insight to the person and a more genuine peek into their lives. I love Peter and his channel and that whole situation is just heartbreaking. Crazy to think how much of an impact someone can have on your life that you’ve never met. Hope your week is better 💜. Nugget ice maker sounds like heaven LOL. 🌊

Hey girl! I’ve been laying low, but watching and loving your videos…binge watching ones I’ve missed. Congratulations on your house! Loving the life content, of course, and sending lots of love and understanding from someone who has suffered greatly from anxiety. So much love to you.

I have Celiac Disease and I'm lactose intolerant so GF/DF is my life 😂 I love the King Arthur cookie mix but their brownie mix is the best GF brownie mix I've ever had! Pro tip make it with oil to make it DF and it also makes them extra gooey! Violife has good dairy free cheese (I especially like their cheddar slices and their parmesan). Bobo's are GF/DF oat bars that come in so many different flavors and they're really good snacks! And I don't know if y'all can have peanuts but The Perfect Bar are refrigerated protein peanut butter bars that basically just taste like peanut butter! And they're made with honey instead of refined sugar! 🌊🧜‍♂🐟🐠🐡

OK idk if you’re into this tip but my anxiety was so bad (I am obsessed with coffee and was having like 5 espresso shots a day!) and then to ween myself off I started getting the instant coffee packs from Starbucks and just putting a little water in it to make a “shot” for my lattes. It really helped my anxiety but I still get caffeine which is my life lol. PS. Trader Joe’s has the Boursin Dairy Free cheese & it is so gewwwd. Also Thrive market is where I get a lot of my bulk gluten free/dairy free stuff. Thanks for your videos!!

Thanks for another great video ❤️

I’ve been feeling exactly the same about Peter. I keep distractedly looking for updates as if I know him. It’s making me so sad and anxious. It’s hard to draw the line between empathy and parasocial. I would feel terrible for anyone in his situation but he’s someone I’m familiar with. 😩I hope he’s okay. I can’t imagine how he’s feeling inside or out.

I love life stuff in vlogs. Especially when it reminds me life comes up and I can’t read 24/7 and this happens to other people too! I am DF, egg free pescatarian and honestly the snacks I live off of are Cliff Builder Bars in Chocolate Mint (not sure if they are gluten free though) , and I also love making my own bean dip for raw veggies like green beans and carrots. I just do a can of white beans, a TB of olive oil, 1/2 a lemon, and any fresh herb. I have a tiny 2 cup food processor I blend it in but you could just mash with a potato masher. It’s cheap and delicious! Also really love Pop Chips plain sea salt. And Olly or Vega protein powder blended with a banana, spinach and soy milk. Sometimes also with frozen blueberries and pineapple. Apples with sunflower seed butter also since I’m allergic to nuts. Also love Ezekiel bread/toast with avocado and sea salt (great with a breakfast tofu scramble, or could use corn tortillas). Check out Minimalist Baker blog if you’re looking for some more plant based recipes- I believe you can separate them out by dietary preference/needs like GF.

Loving the life stuff in addition to the bookish stuff :). Also, I finished House of Earth and Blood this week - it was emotional - and I was supposed to wait until payday to get the new one... but I ordered it and it will arrive today as I don't think I can concentrate on anything else now haha!

I am gluten, dairy, soy, and caffeine free (getting ready to start my 3rd year) Alex Snodgrass has 2 amazing cookbooks that changed my life with this life style change) as for grocery stores, Aldi has the best gluten free selection at great prices. I always go there first and then follow up at either Kroger or Walmart. One snack I have been loving is a date cut in half with some nut butter. Sometimes I add a little bit of Hu chocolate. I have them in my freezer and grab one after lunch. I really like gluten free pretzels. The crunch is so satisfying. I eat a lot of fruit as a snack also.

Natural Grocers is also great for GF/DF stuff. New Seasons is also cheaper than Whole Foods. But we’ve found (at least here in Portland) that the best stuff comes from local businesses.

I have blinds on my patio door like that. Something I learned is that the movement of the blinds is controlled by magnets and if you slam the door, the magnets come apart and your blinds are now broken. So just a warning not to slam that door.

We have a People's Co-op which has a variety of delicious food but also expensive at times... I tend to go to a place called Fresh Thyme for things I can't find at other grocery stores as much of their stuff is similar to the Co-op but better priced and also have enjoyed Trader Joe's. I'm in the middle of moving so have been a more anxious ball of stress than usual and I have also watched people's vlogs who have brought me comfort though they don't know it. I hope Peter will be okay! I'm almost 50% through HOEB so hope to get to HOSB towards the beginning of March. Looking forward to seeing what you do with your new home especially the Library!

Sprouts has a lot of options for dairy free and gluten free. They have a lot of snack crackers, chips, ect that are vegetable based and gluten free. They have a lot of good sales on their fruits and vegetables too. I get dairy free ice cream sandwiches there that are really good, I can't remember if they're gluten free or not but they do have those options there. They have a great selection of plant based meat brands as well. Trader Joe's is really good for frozen vegetables and their fresh fruits and vegetables are decently priced. Their brand of hummus is very good and priced well. However they don't have a lot of selection for dairy free or even gluten free. They do have some items but most are seasonal (I love the gluten free pumpkin pancake mix but It's only around October and November then it's gone). Have you ever tried Spaghetti Squash? It's a great alternative to pasta and isn't at all hard to cook.

I've found that buying gluten/dairy free items are always more expensive than other food. The only way to cut it down and make it more cost friendly is purchasing raw meat (season & cook yourself) & raw fruits & veggies.

Aldi has a fair amount of vegan and gf options. I’m not sure where you are regionally, so I’m not sure what it’s called there but Krogers has a ton of stuff that is reasonably priced.
