Wasting Time with You!

 Wasting Time on You...Tube!

I don't know about all of you, but I can waste a lot of time on YouTube!! With the number of people that are putting videos up on YouTube, there is definitely something out there for everyone. I've been an avid user of YouTube since I was in middle school, so I would consider myself to be somewhat of an expert! Obviously not everyone will enjoy the channels that I like, but who knows... maybe we watch some similar people/channels!!!

BTW, I had completely finished this post and right as I was going to preview and publish it my computer decided to delete almost all of what I had written! I was devastated. That fiasco is the reason why I did not post a blog last week! I have a goal that I will continue to work hard on my blog despite the craziness of life, so I am happy to be working on this blog again for all of you! Hopefully you enjoy it! Now back to what you are really here for!

Let's be honest.... I'm into girly girl things, organization, cleaning, and health...ish YouTubers! I have way more than just one favorite YouTube channel, but here are some of the people that I just have to watch! Maybe with this blog I will help you find a new channel to watch! Make sure to let me know what channels you all follow! I don't have as much time as of late to watch YouTube, but I still like to watch one or two videos a day when I get ready/when Josh is watching a movie that I'm not as interested in (SORRY JOSH!). I also watch YouTube when I'm at the gym!

1. Aspyn and Parker
Vlog Channel:https://www.youtube.com/user/HauteVlog
Main Channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/HauteBrilliance
Aspyn and Parker are one of those YouTube couples that are younger than you but they seem to have everything put together! They live in Utah and they are actually building a home right now in Salt Lake City! I have major jealousy/envy with them because they are paid to travel the world and they have seriously amazing style. I'll be honest though... I do enjoy watching their vlogs more because I feel like I relate to them a lot more than the more mainstream videos that they put up on the main channel, but overall they do make really great content!! Their travel diaries are aesthetically pleasing and you can tell that they care about what they are putting out. You have also probably seen pictures of their home all over Pinterest. Their home is decorated perfectly, and I wish that they would just come decorate mine. Aspyn and Parker are super successful on YouTube and even own a clothing store, so it is obvious that they are doing something right with their lives. I have watched every video that they have put out for years (I don't know if that is pathetic or impressive). BTW: Vlogs are kind of like blogs but videos of your daily lives.


2. Alex and Michael
Vlog Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfB9Z5aAqe85oDCuQfxfwuA
Main Channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheAlexandreaGarza
You will probably notice that I enjoy main channels, but I really do love vlogs as well. I like watching other people live their lives.. is that weird? Is this the Truman show? I hope not! Alex is another great example of someone with AMAZING STYLE! If you just look at her picture, you can tell that she is beautiful! I have loved their videos lately because they have been obsessed with their baby boy that is going to be born soon! Alex and Michael's vlog is fun because again it is very realistic, and you almost feel like you are truly their friends when you watch their videos! Her main channel has a lot to do with fashion, beauty, travel, and lifestyle. Although I'm not as into the higher end/designer products, I envy her style and take her recommendations seriously. Plus.. they have an adorable little dog and I just want him so badly! They are also about to open a clothing store, and I'm excited to see what kind of clothing they will carry. I watch every Alex/Michael video as soon as it is uploaded!

Side note, Mallory Ervin is another YouTuber that I enjoy, and Alex/Michael and Mallory Ervin/her husband are really good friends. Mallory is a southern girl who just has so much spirit! She is hilarious, she is adorable with her husband, she has amazing style, and she is actually pregnant as well! I literally laugh out loud with almost every video that she uploads. If you like Mallory you will like Alex and vice versa.

3. Vegan/Health Channels
Becca Bristow: https://www.youtube.com/user/beccakaay1

Sweet Simple Vegan: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDYDFqV45Nqp4V8eaCI_UVQ
Caitlin Shoemaker: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0cxMY7jZ_kiE2bvykJffZA

I added Vegan/Health channels into one big list because 1. I really really enjoy watching what people eat??! I gain a lot of inspiration from them and they help me a lot with incorporating healthier choices into my diet. My weird thing is that I enjoy watching vegan people. Why? I know not, but I find it fascinating what you can make without meat products. I'm not 100% vegan/vegetarian nor am I planning on going super vegan, but I find these videos fascinating! The cool thing is that Sweet Simple Vegan (on the let) and Caitlin Shoemaker (on the right) are my age and have already produced their own cook books! I wish I was doing stuff like that! Both of those channels also come out with new recipes weekly which is awesome. On a side note though, Sweet Simple Vegan pust up a lot of vlogs (they're a couple) and I really enjoy seeing what they get up to because they are always eating some great looking food! I like Caitlin's vlogs too because she always has very good tips on eating healthier on a budget and about making your life the best that it can be. What great advice!

Becca Bristow is not vegan, but she is a registered dietician. I like to watch her videos because I feel like she has more cred when she says something about health and fitness. She has created a series that have topics like: The skinny on tomato sauce, All about Sugar, and how to train for a marathon. She also uploads a lot of eat with me videos as well as some Eco-friendly beauty and cleaning routines. I'm planning on watching some of her videos on intuitive eating soon because that is definitely something that I need to work on.

There are so many different food vloggers/YouTubers out there, and there is definitely something out there for everyone. I dabble in some other videos and channels but these are my favorites because I think they put out really fun, new, and creative content on a weekly basis. BTW: Caitlin and Sweet Simple Vegan actually collaborate monthly with creating new themed recipes. Those collaboration videos are some of my favorite to watch from them.



4. Cleaning/Organization Channels
Love Meg:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvP5FAvS734EJHkSQK6g8Ng
Vasseur Beauty: https://www.youtube.com/user/vasseurbeauty
Erica Lee: https://www.youtube.com/user/xoxoERiCAlee

 Lets all be honest here... it is relaxing to watch cleaning videos!? Am I the only one? Love Meg is a seriously adorable Youtuber because 1. she is beautiful 2. she has a super cute family and 3. I'm pretty sure her "dirty" home is still a lot cleaner than mine on a daily basis #goals! She and her little family live in North Carolina (maybe), and they have the best southern accents. If you need some motivation to clean your home, just turn on one of her videos! She also does a lot of shop with me videos and family routines. So cute!

Vasseur Beauty has changed a lot in the last few years, but only for the better! She has a little boy named Carter and she puts him in almost every video(lets be honest.. cute babies help with the views!!)! Some of my favorite videos from her are the vlogs and her organizational/decluttering videos! The fun thing about her organization videos though is that she normally uses things that make you go I NEED THAT IN MY LIFE. It is also funny because I'm pretty sure she is addicted to amazon prime. Her house is immaculate, and its fun because she shows some creative instruments/devices that can make your daily life easier.


LASTLY! Erica Lee is another YouTuber that puts up very relaxing cleaning videos! I love the way that Erica decorates her home! I really want her to come to my house and just decorate along with Aspyn and Parker. Erica does a lot of shop with me videos with each season, cleaning routines, and hauls! I don't watch every video that she puts out, but they are definitely fun to watch! She has pretty expensive taste, but I feel like watching her fulfills any desire of me wanting anything high end! She collaborates with Grove Collaborative a lot as well which is one of my favorite websites to buy Eco-friendly cleaning supplies.


YOU HAVE MADE IT TO THE END! CONGRATULATIONS! Let me know how you guys liked this post!? I know that it isn't perfect, but I wanted to make sure that I got something up for y'all this week! Let me know if you guys watch any of these YouTubers and who your favorite YouTubers are!?

I guess I'll be seeing You later! Do you see what I did there? Love you all!

What is YOUR Tendency?

 The Four Tendencies I'm not good with one liners. I know what you're thinking... Anna, you're married.. you don't need one liners, but with blogging you want to be creative with one liners because the blog titles need to be poppin'! I'll be honest, I stink at coming up with a funny title. I can quickly think of something to write about, but that title though!!!!!!! Today I am going to be talking about a book that I've been meaning to talk about for a while! In order to introduce the book I need to talk about Podcasts. For a while I was really interested in Podcasts. Recently with lessened free time, my interest has decreased, but with Podcasts, my addiction rises and then plummets... it's like a teenage relationship. While listening to a Podcast titled Happier by Gretchen Rubin she mentioned a quiz which tied into her book The Four Tendencies. Pretty much the quiz places you into one of four specific personalities. I took the quiz...

Granola: The Addiction

  Granola: The Addiction If any of you know me well, you know I like to try new recipes! A few months ago I decided to try and make some Granola because Josh and I love to eat it and it seemed so easy. You could look up any recipe on Pinterest, but some of those granola recipes get rather tedious, so I found the simplest recipe on Pinterest and tweaked it for what I wanted! Underneath this paragraph is the image that I follow off of Pinterest. After you look at the image, check out the other renditions/add ins that I put into my granola! BTW: No one has tried my granola and said that it was not good! Let me know if you try the recipe and what variations you do! My Changes Oil Base: I have tried this recipe using butter/coconut oil and both are fabulous! It is definitely not as healthy with butter, but if you like the rich flavor that butter gives, then you will love it as your oil base. When you use butter the granola seriously tastes like pie crust! I lik...

Confessions of a Sick Person

You probably don't know this, but I am sick!!! On Tuesday I woke up with a sore throat and thought that I was fine. I decided to go to work and by the end of my shift I got into the car and had really bad body pains, a headache, I was light headed, having chills, and honestly I felt like I had been run over by a bus.. Not fun!! While driving home I had to keep telling myself "You can do this!!!" I had to say that quite a few times since the rush hour drive from center city to Jenkintown was about an hour. I got home, and let's just say things got worse. I tried taking a bath, that helped for a minute, and then I laid in bed until Josh got home. My fever was over 102 and a few decimals! Luckily I have a great husband and he bought me a coke and one of those gas stations milkshakes that your parents never let you get when you were younger! I know this is probably not the healthiest but the caffeine helped with my head, and the milkshake helped cool my over heating body!...
