Cozy summer baking to pull myself out of a slump 🍰 A feel-good vlog (🦋 Wildflower Summer Ep. 3)

I’m obsessed with Wildflower Summer, Morgan. You have created such a beautiful concept ♥️

Man did you LIFT my spirits today. I got so teary eyed, but filled with joy and hope. Me and my best friend of 25 years split up and went separate ways on yesterday. I was feeling mighty mighty low today. 25 years...gone down the drain. We met at university. Both of us Writers. I was sitting here wondering, who am I going to hang out with now? After watching your video, the answer came: I'll tell ya who I'm going to hang out with: Me, Myself, and I. And have a good time: Baking, writing, and going on adventures, until I'm given another pal to hang out with, or the old chum returns. Love you Morgan. You have no idea the joy, peace, comfort, and inspiration you give to me and others. May you bake many many more little childlike cakes with fairy sprinkles. Hugs & Love 💞💙💛💚💖🧡

i do hope you're ok Mo xx 💜

Morgan: "It can be difficult to enjoy your life, to make time to do the things that you love doing, to even KNOW what you love doing, and then actually to have the discipline to do those things because it's actually so much easier to sit and scroll on your phone. Or binge watch a show, or YouTube videos which I do all of the time! ...But How the Heck do we do it?" Quiet: This is SO TRUE, Morgan!!! It IS hard to even KNOW what you love doing!!! I've been on a search for these things for a few years now!!! LIFE kept getting in the way until I turned 60 years old!!! Handicaps kept getting in the way. LIFE demands so much of us that there is so little energy to nurture and refresh and restore ourselves. We run with our tanks on Empty and wonder why we are tempted to be jaded, bitter, resentful and full of self pity! Baking is a wonderful start!!! Keep going!!! We are cheering you on Morgan!!! I would like to encourage you to consider rethinking your book buying ban. I think that books are especially refreshing to you. You seem to glow when you are walking down the isles of Powell's enjoying all of the POSSIBILITIES!!! You see, as you age, possibilities become more limited because your body slows down and many other limitations mount upon you. Possibilites are so invigorating and life-giving instead of taking!!! However, if you do decide to give yourself some treats, make sure that they are really LIFE GIVING. Don't go for the introspective, self improvement books!!! Go for the things that LIGHT YOU UP!!! Children's books? Crafting books? Home decor? Famous Artists? Destination locations? Sewing your own clothing? A few journals or commonplace books to keep your thoughts from your Wildflower Summer and everything that you learn about MORGAN!!! Know that you, Landon and Roo remain in my prayers. Sending you so much love! Quiet

I've been alone for 7 years. I want to come home from work to my wife (girlfriend), wrap my arms around her, kiss her, and tell her that I love her. I dream of the 40's style. OMG, you were playing Maria Callas!!! Autumn is my most favorite season! It has such a special feel to it that I cannot put it into words. And, for over 20 years I have longed to have my own little cozy coffee/tea shop. I love the ambiance!

This beautiful video made me think of one of my favorite Mary Oliver quotes, you might have heard of her :P, which is "Joy is not made to be a crumb" it's part of a short prose poem but ohh, so so true! “If you suddenly and unexpectedly feel joy, don’t hesitate. Give in to it. There are plenty of lives and whole towns destroyed or about to be. We are not wise, and not very often kind. And much can never be redeemed. Still, life has some possibility left. Perhaps this is its way of fighting back, that sometimes something happens better than all the riches or power in the world. It could be anything, but very likely you notice it in the instant when love begins. Anyway, that’s often the case. Anyway, whatever it is, don’t be afraid of its plenty. Joy is not made to be a crumb.”

Morgan - I miss seeing new videos pop up but more importantly am hoping you are ok. Best wishes for a beautiful summer! 🌻🌸🌼🌺

You know how you say Mary Oliver poetry is good for your soul? That’s what your videos are to me 🩵 I feel like I’ve been talking to a friend or have been to therapy after watching your videos! Thank you Morgan!

My husband was deployed for 7 months last year and it was extremely difficult. You re-learn to be independent with certain tasks but also learn to love and appreciate the time alone. Being apart is challenging but I can truly say that our relationship became even better when he returned because you learn to appreciate the little things again. It’s okay to not have good days. Proud of you! 🤍🌸

It has been three weeks since your last video. Hopefully you are okay.

Here's to those of us who blew the candles with you (aka expelled warm breath towards our phone screens! Haha). Your cake did look lovely in the end. Maybe it was warm when you put the icing on the first time and that's why it melted? Also, I'd recommend getting an offset spatula so you can have more freedom of movement for icing your next solo cake, which I hope comes soon! Not as soon as your next video tho! Here for this season!! 🌼☀️

80,000! I may have felt slightly silly blowing out candles on a video cake, but I did it anyway and it made me smile 😊 So happy to be a part of wildflower summer ❤❤❤

I relate so much with this! I'm living by myself for the first time in my life at 25 years old. Tomorrow I have the opportunity to play volleyball with some people I know (but not well) and then to volunteer at an event after that. I'm soooo tempted to just stay home and "enjoy my Saturday" even though the last two evenings I've gotten bored. I am determined to have fun with PEOPLE tomorrow no matter the social anxiety! 😄

Hi beloved Morgan I was thinking about u today I haven't seen you post in a minute so I wanted to pop on and say I love your videos I love your positivity but also your transparency. I am also on a journey similar to you not depending on anyone which I have always been dependent on people. But now I have to do it with a toddler and without a driver's licence so that's a challenge but thankfully I live in NYC so it's not impossible. Your journey has been a big inspiration to me. Hope you are doing well . 💝

I miss you Morgan ❤ I hope things are going ok your way and your days are feeling brighter ☀️ I know we're all hanging out for your next video but make sure you're taking care of your magical, wonderful self first and we'll be here as soon as you are 🥰 Sending hugs ❤

Wow. I did not expect to get this emotional when blowing out the candles with you 🎂 Lots of love to you Morgan 💛 You have created a magical corner of the internet that brings comfort and happiness to around 80000 souls ☀️Incredibly inspiring🌻

And CAKE makes your videos special! Kidding...You wondrous you make every video very "cakey" special WITH SPINKLES! and a few raspbeez. WE LUV YOU SO. Happy 80K. 100K is around the corner...and hopefully that corner has a bookstore on it, too. Perhaps, Powells? Hahahaha. And honestly, if each of us got a slice- that 80,000 slice cake would be probably the world's largest. So...if you saved me a spinkle I would be happy.:pride-flower-pansexual:

Your childlike joy is so precious! Congratulations on 80,000 subscribers, Morgan! 🎉

Hi Morgan! I’m an old lady and I still spend far too much time doing things for other people and family members. Even in retirement, you make me realize that I need to do what brings me joy. I spend too much time pleasing other people which basically makes me sick and saps me of any joy. I am exhausted. I want to have some fun. I love to bake too! I think I’ll bake something 😊. Thank you Morgan.

Hoping you are doing ok. Just enjoying more of your vlogs. Thanks 🌸.
