- Merry Christmas & Happy New Year friends! 🌟✨
I hope you've had a wonderful holiday week full of rest, cozy pajamas and feel-good films. I hope you're taking care of yourself and listening to what your body needs. I can't believe Christmas is already over, but I hope you enjoy this video! I was hoping to post it sooner but I decided to fully enjoy the few days surrounding Christmas instead of being on my laptop editing. I'm sending all my love and virtual hugs your way. Merry Christmas and happy (almost) 2023, friends :)

Jared is a keeper, very attentive and sweet, a great husband and your dad was so loving and giving, they know you so well. You are so blessed Desi.
THANK YOU for explaining the love language of gift giving. I JUST explained this to my partner, who is lovely but not strong in that department and likes me to tell him exactly what to get me. I was like, "NO, I can buy things myself, it's about the thought and planning behind the gift."
I’ve had to spell it out for Jared for years! But he has been improving every year and it makes me feel SO loved that he has been trying so hard to love me in the way that I feel loved. I usually give him a wishlist with a few items that he can use to be inspired by. We also have talks every month where we go over our current interest and fixations! I guess he remembered when he was looking for tea that I went through a whole Bridgerton phase during spring 😅
@@DarlingDesi So there is hope! 😂
@@DarlingDesi would you happen to know where he got that Nutcracker Mug? I am also a huge collector of different mugs, and I love Nutcrackers!
@@supersleuther3955although it’s 10 months later, I saw those mugs at hobby lobby last Christmas season, maybe they brought them back
Good luck
Candy floss in Afrikaans is “spookasem” which literally translates to ghost breath. 🤭
I love this!! 😍❤
Go SA lol
And in french it's Barbe à Papa, which means Dad's Beard 🤣
That is awesome! If I actually ate the stuff, I’d definitely call it ghost breath! Though I might try butterbeer flavor, sounds delicious.
That is so cool!
I'm usually a silent watcher, but I can't put into words how much these videos mean to me. I binge them regularly and if I don't know what to do they're a safe space. I have CFS/ME and when I can't go outside and see the world (which is a lot of the time) this little universe is my comfort. Thank you❤ Happy new year from little me, in Norway ✨
Every good wish for your health in 2023. Blessings from Ireland
Thank you so much!! Likewise, I hope you have a wonderful year 💞
little universe is beautifully said :)
@@Motherhubbard170 thank you! I was wondering if it'd be weird, but I think kindred spirits know what I mean ❤️
Wishing you health and wellness this year ❤ CFS is hard and isolating, I'm so glad her videos have helped a little.
My husband and I have a tradition that started before we got married. On Christmas Eve, we give each other books. Then we spend the rest of the evening reading, snuggling, and eating chocolate.
Yes we are total dorks!
How sweet!
In Greece candy floss is called "malli tis grias(μαλλί της γριάς)" which translates to "old lady's hair" 😅
hahah I love it!
in Portugal we call it sweet cotton
“We don’t eat American chocolate in this house”
*gets mint chocolate M&M’s and loves it*
Hello! I want to thank you for this year, you have improved my life and that of many others enormously. When the darkness and rain of autumn cover the joy of life, when the wind blows through the pine needles, when spring feels like a total failure and the heat of summer is nearly killing us, then you stand there like a magical fairy and show joy and reason in life. You make life a cozy, fun, joyful moment and I can't find words for how grateful I am that you have made me appreciate both myself and life. Being able to wake up in happiness and be ready for another wonderful day is thanks to you. Happy new year and may your dreams come true.
What she said!👆🏻🫶🏼💖
your description of the weather makes me think you live in Canada as I do,
LOVE Canada but the weather is something else, which is why its virtually all we talk about.
Immigrated to Canada over 25 years ago
@@Motherhubbard170I actually live in Sweden so you were close. I’d like to travel to Canada sometime it seems like a nice place.
Also props to you for being dyslexic and making reading a hobby. It takes me a day’s strength to “read” a paragraph.
Its been my habit to watch ypur Videos before going to sleep.makes me relax. Happy new year, from Bangladesh 🇧🇩💕
That warms my heart so much 🥹 I’m so glad you enjoy the videos! I hope you have an amazing new year! 🎉♥️
Perfect cozy video to end the year. Loads of love for you desi ❤️
Best wishes for new year everyone 💕
Thank you!! ♥️♥️♥️ Wishing you a happy and restful 2023!
Omg! That recipe book from your mom and grandma is everything.... my Nana handwrote recipes of my childhood and put them in a binder just like that. She passed away the next year and it is still such a special item that I will forever cherish.
That Little Women edition.... I'm in love. How STUNNING 💜
gift giving is also one of my strongest love languages. it's beautiful how much your loved ones take the time to curate such personalized and meaningful gifts. merry christmas and a happy new years to you all
My momma did something very similar for me a while back. She put recipes in her handwriting in there, as well as giving me recipes written by other people in my life that she had (such as a few from my Muz who had passed away years before) so I have not only their recipes but in their handwriting. It is still one of my prized possessions.
The Jan Brett book unlocked a childhood memory of a book called the mitten? I think? I remember there being a hedgehog climbing into a mitten in the winter to stay warm but more and more animals climb in. It was on a hard style cardboard book but I LOVED looking at the pictures. These cozy videos always remind me of something forgotten in my childhood. Thank you and happy new year!
Yes!! I remember that book, too! It’s so cute!
YOU unlocked that memory for me just now! I absolutely loved that book!
They have it at Barnes and noble rn if you want to restart your collection!
In Australia we called it "Fairy Floss" 💖
Always love watching your videos! Happy New Year 🥳
In Poland candy floss is called 'wata cukrowa' which means 'sugar cotton' 🍬 Happy New Year! 🎆
you are curing my anxiety, every time it kicks in again, I go straight to your videos ! Thank you for that !
I was following and watching you for a while. Eventhough am much older, but your video can be for everyone. I love every video you made and can be watching it again and again. Even my husband watching it too, especially your Christmas video. I love baking and books, your review inspire me always to look for new recipe or buy other print of Little Women. And telling us having a bear doll is not only for kids but it self-care, it's so true! You bring so much joy to me and to our home. Thank you dear Desi! All the best wishes in 2023 to you and Jared and your entire family. Much 💖 from the Netherlands.
If Little Woman puts you in a reading slump there are two more books after it!! Little Men, and Jo's Boys and they are both good! Thanks for the cozy winter feels💜
Sarah Miller, author of Marmee, is also the author of Caroline which follows the story of Ma in Little House on The Prairie. I really enjoyed it and seeing her perspective. I hadn't heard of Marmee but I need to request it from the Library now!
How interesting - I will be looking for the Caroline book. It sounds like a book I would love. Growing up, I always related best to Laura, but now that my kids are grown and gone, I would love to read Carolines perspective. I have a feeling I will relate to that now.
Candy floss is "hattara" in Finnish. I think it's a beautiful word. We also call those small white clouds sailing on a sunny sky "pilvenhattara", literally translated "cloud candy floss". Your videos are like a pilvenhattara I want to disappear into. I have generalized anxiety disorder and your positive, cheerful attitude and your courage to be you and enjoy the things you love in life teach me something in every video. Just you being you, but also your gift as a fellow creative person. The impostor syndrome is real but believe me, your talent is real and amazing.
Your videos never fail to make me feel safe & happy Desi 💖 thank you for taking the time! 🥰
What a perfect way to end 2022 🥰❤️ Thank you so much for all the lovely videos you've created this year Desi, and for all the joy you bring. I hope 2023 will be filled with magical and wholesome moments for you and your lovely family 🥰😊💕✨️ Can't wait to see what great things the future has in store for you! Happy new year ✨️
So cute to think of you, Jared and your Dad making cookies together! Happy New Year from a cottage in Wales x
Not only are you a good person and a kind soul, you put so much work and creativity into these videos. I come here for inspiration and joy and I always find both. So, thank *you* so much and Happy New Year!
Thank you, Desi for sharing your gifts, nostalgia, enthusiasm, and joy with us. Please don’t apologize for taking care of your health. All of us who enjoy your videos consider you a friend and want you to be well. May you continue to have love and happiness in the coming year and my your health improve. Happy New Year!
Thank you for all of your videos this year. You are the reason for each season. I never start to feel "in the season" until I see your videos and it has helped me so much this year
I watch you everyday and even repeat your videos . They make me happy and your such a dear sweet person just from what I see. So thank you for making my day happier each day .
Thank you so much for another perfect video❤️❤️ Here in France, we call candy floss "Barbe à papa", which literally means "Daddy's beard"🤭 Happy new year to you and your family!❤️🎉🎉
Felice 2023! Grazie per la compagnia. Un caro saluto dall Italia!😊
This video is so filled with joy, so thanks for spreading that joy and your passion for books with us! Here's to a happy and healthy New Year!
You’re such a sweet person. I thank you for the work you put into your videos. It is so refreshing to see someone love and enjoy life so much. You put so much thought and effort into everything😊
This video made me so incredibly happy! I hope you can feel the virtual hug that I'm giving you back🥰 Thank you so much for all this amazing content that you put out this year, Desi! One can clearly feel, that every single video of yours is made with so much love and hard work and I really appreciate it a lot! Happy new year, Desi! Thank you for being the way that you are❤️🤍
I genuinely love your videos and enjoy rewatching them to relax after a long day. They are so pretty and calming, and your positive attitude is so much fun to watch. Best wishes to you, Jared, D’artagnan, Binx and Benedict for the new year and thank you very much!
I'm French and so happy to see all these american snacks
(but the app you are using is not using a good accent lol)
I love seeing how excited you were about your books and gifts from your love.
I am so so glad you got to take the time you needed to care for your body during this difficult year and wishing you a healthier, happy, peaceful 2023
Was touched by all your appreciation and gratitude for the people in your life and the lovely nurturing gifts.The water Kraft is amazing.
We love you desi!! Thank you so much for all that you do ❤️ You are so talented and sweet and I hope you continue to feel loved and at peace going into the new year!
What beautiful gifts.
I totally agree with you about spending time with family as the best present. It is being with people that makes memories that will be remembered in years to come.
I just love how humble and grateful you are. Thank you for sharing all the little things that make you happy because your enthousiasme inspires me to enjoy even more all the little special things that I like ☺️ I love how you find magic in everything, from a picture book to a bookmark charm ✨ Keep being you! ❤
Here in the Netherlands candy floss is called ''suikerspin'' which if literally translated means sugar spider 🕷🍬 Happy New Year to you Desi!
That is so interesting and cool! Here it's cotton candy but I should start calling it candy floss.
In Norwegian it's called sukkerspinn which is sugar spin, never thought about it in relation to spiders but cobweb is (spin)delvev, so interesting!
@Eira Nergård haha, well spiders do have "spin-dly" legs & they do "spin" webs, so perhaps it all makes sense.
Love the name sugar spider♡
In Australia it’s called fairy floss
I was hoping you'd make a video like you did last year, one with your Christmas presents, and you did! I cheered. I just love the unique kinds of gifts you get. Your husband does such a good job!! And your other family members too. Also, I am so sorry for your health struggles. Gosh, so many are struggling with health issues these days. :( I guess a video about how you have handled things would be really helpful for me to see, but I suppose that is too personal, and maybe you wouldn't want to take away from your cheerful vibe. But do continue to take care of yourself and thank you for this fun video!
I agree with everything except the not remembering to shower thing. For me, there isn’t anything better than feeling the bed sheets on freshly cleaned skin. Such a unique feeling if you have a sensory thing. Best way to end the day for me and start anew. Although, I must admit I sometimes skip morning showers when I don’t sweat at night. 🤭
You got so many amazing gifts, Desi - I love all of them🥰 But you are so right with what you said at the end. It's really not the material gifts that matter but the time you spend with your loved ones, to enjoy nature and the coziness of this time of year and so much more❤️
Your videos are a joy. Your enthusiasm and pleasure for life is a real pick-me-up for your viewers. I've read a few of your recommendations this year and the Hygge books are on my list for 2023 ('cosy' is one of my favourite words) Have a wonderful New Year and a healthy, lucky 2023. xx
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays Desi and fam, thank you for all your inspiration this year. Thanks to you I now burn candles when it gets dark because it makes winter feel so much sweeter. Take care and be well 🥰
Have a fruitful and happy 2023, Desi 🧡 Your videos are my favourites!
Candy floss in Spain is called 'algodón de azucar", which roughly translates as 'cotton sugar'. Oooh Ferrero Rocher are delicious, I thought they were universal though. Fun fact: during the summer they stop selling them over here because of the heat. I love all you gifts and I love that they're so thoughtful. And happy new year!
I hope we all have a good 2023! I really like to follow Desi for her book recommendations. My best physical gift were books and my best non-physical gift was watching the little ones open their gifts and hearing the squealing!
Definitely cried at the end of this 😭😭😭 Best of luck to you both and I can't wait for your next video!
Desi, you are such a gentle and loving soul! I truly hope that 2023 brings you everything that is good in life including many many smiles and so much laughter. Happy New Year!
So glad you had a wonderful Christmas! You are right, it is not about the presents. Spending time with people you love is a gift. I hope we all have a happy, healthy 2023.
You're magic Desi 🌟 Soaking up every season and every day and celebrating it to the fullest gives inspiration and motivation to all your viewers. You sprinkle cheer and good vibes with every video. We all should aspire to live a little more like Desi 💝💌
This video was just like being there when you unwrapped your very thoughtful gifts…you are very blessed to be surrounded by such a wonderful family. Happy New Year!
Snacks and indulgences for Christmas are my favorites! I love getting good chocolates and teas. It's so warming.
⚜Your videos are so uplifting to watch~it’s wonderful to know that there are genuine people in the world like you who are so grateful for the small things. You are inspiring & truly make people want to be better & just enjoy life & its simple pleasures, like a hot cup of tea, warm pajamas or a sweater, a good book, & the love of family & furbabies. Thank you for what you bring to the world. May you have a joyful, healthy 2023!
I have been feeling depressed after the holidays and your cheerful demeanor and gratitude just filled my heart ❤️ Love you Desi!
Wishing you a great 2023 year, dear! Thank you for bringing joy and smile into this world, sometimes you really make my bleak days more colourful 💖
You have encouraged me to recognize and enjoy all the special and magical moments in life and to take time for myself ❤ Thank you 😊
You're so wise. The ending, how you spoke about how some presents can't be wrapped... I love that you're an old soul
as a german i can confirm my Omi also makes all these recipes and they are just few of the best things from my childhood ...i totally understand you
Your hubby is a real sweetheart for really paying attention to details!!! Wow! He put such love and thought into it all.
Hello, Desi! I discovered your channel recently, and your videos have made such a positive impact in my mental wellbeing. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart and wish you the best for the upcoming year. 💕
I love that your family and friends lean into and support your interests even if they're not into them themselves
We love you Desi!! You are awesome! When I see and hear you interests and likes it is like seeing so much of myself! You are amazing and please don't ever stop being you!
I discovered you when I had covid and thank you so much for your wonderful and uplifting content!! Blessing to you!!
Thank you for always being a sweet, charming light in all of our lives. Happy holidays to you and yours!
Desi, you’re such a breath of fresh air!! I love watching your videos! Happy and healthy New Year!
I'm so glad you had a beautiful Christmas and you got some amazing gifts! Your videos are so comforting and cosy and I'm so glad to have found you on CZcams. I had the week between Christmas and New Year's off for the first time in my 40 yrs of being in the working world. Was thinking I would be bored, but I was busy every day and got so much joy out of this special week, seeing friends and family, taking some "me time", relaxing. Was such a treat and watching your videos was part of it. Thank you!!♥️
I love these videos so much! Same here, this is my favorite week of the year, it's always so relaxing and full of warmth!
I had an incredibly busy week in between Christmas and New Years Eve and I missed the vibes so much. I’m glad I get to live those vibes through you desi
Wishing you and your loved ones a very Happy New Year 🍾🥂🐈⬛ Always look forward to your videos! You bring the magic of the seasons into our homes xxxxx
Desi please do a video in which you show us all your books ❤️❤️
As a French person, it's funny to see how French stockings are quite popular in other parts of the world :)
How lovely!💜 Your family are great gift givers! Wow!
In a world full of chaos and misery, You inspire me to love life more. Thank you!🌸
happy new year, desi! i always love your videos! i feel like i’ve found a kindred spirit whenever i watch them :)
Jared is such a great gift giver! Also, does anyone know where those adorable Christmas mugs are from?
I find some cute ones at Hobby Lobby, Thriftstores, HomeGoods, TJMAXX, and Marshall's.
Your videos are always so lovely and cosy. Your gifts were all great, but the Holmes book was just gorgeous ❤️
16:28 I love when you talked about books and how you want to referred them to your children in the future, it’s a sweet thing you attempt to do, I think you’ll become a lovely caring mother 🧚🏻💖
Happy New Year
, Desi! Thanks for being a ray of sunshine. I'm so glad I found your channel this year❤
Those Harry Potter pj’s are magical! 😍✨
Ahh, I got Tom Felton’s memoir for Christmas too! I really enjoyed it 😊 Your videos always bring me so much happiness. Wishing you the happiest of New Years, Desi! 💛
I love your videos so much! It kinda makes me proud to be part of the first ones to see this one, happy new year everyone!
That’s such a nice thing to say! 🥹 I’m so glad you’re here! Sending you a virtual hug 🤗🥰

My gift from Desi is more books to add to my to be read list! Thank you, Desi! Wishing you and yours a wonderful and cozy new year. 💌
I absolutely love your videos thank you so much, so inspirational, wishing you a happy healthy 2023 x
I woke up to this, I already know its going to be a good day now! Thank you
Aw Desi, you're like a warm cup of tea for our 👁👁. Wishing you a wonderful year to come✨
Thank you for sharing and for your perspective on health being a gift when it goes well. I feel that this year.
i'm spending the week after christmas sick with covid for the second year in a row and i was so happy to see your video notification!!! nothing is more cozy than one of your videos. thank you for all you put in to them. they have been one of my comforts this year. 💛
Wishing you a swift recovery.
What a wonderful video watching you talk about the gifts you received, especially all those beautiful books. Hope you stay well.
I have to agree with you, best week out of the whole year. Happy new year!
you got the ferrero bit right! In England we say ro-shay for the second word, but given it's a french name we are probably also wrong 😂! What beautiful gifts! I love to see Christmas haul, especially when you find people with the same tastes and interests as yourself! Happy New Year Desi, looking forward to another year of seasonal, cosy magic!
