getting my life together | meal prep, spring cleaning and journalling 

I love how she's so independent and goes to places on her own all the time, I would love that I just need encouragements cuz I'm sick and tired of wasting my days at home 😭

Taz, if you already have a bunch of seasonings, I suggest trying to use them up before you get more. They often expire before you can get round to finishing them and different combinations of seasonings can give you different flavours if you already have a bunch. Fresh herbs will also change up the flavours. You could also donate seasonings that you don't enjoy coz someone else might find them delicious

ur my comfort youtuber, not feeling so good rn and i know this will calm me down, thank you

Equal parts salt, paper, onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder, paprika, and a little bit on turmeric. TRUST me it’s the best for chicken:)

I like that she just said she's gonna stop smelling things and then smells every seasoning she bought 😂

OMG!! YES!!! Its time to take a break from studying! Relax, rewind by clicking for taz!!

You don’t even know how much you are helping me, I am struggling with life getting in the way of things and I’m pushing my mental and physical health to the side but watching these videos and watching you just do regular things like fold laundry or wash the dishes it’s so comforting to watch after a 12 hour shift at work. I feel my anxiety creeping up then I just remember I can wind down before I go to bed. I just wish I had friends like you just so real. Thankyou, I hope the positive energy from this comment get to you!

Oh no I hope you’re ok 🥺 from being in hospital 🩷 I love watching your videos

Tip for chapped lips: When you're moisturising your face in the morn/eve, put it over your lips too. Then take a thick lip balm and put it on top to seal in the moisture! I like the Eucerin lip balm but plain vaseline would work too😁 I used to have chronically chapped lips and doing this helped so much!

I just moved across the world and am living on my own again. I love being independent and having the time and space to do what's best for me! It's nice to watch your videos while I am having a meal and to see other young women living a similar life in peace! Love you Taz ❤

I adore taz's ability to visit places alone, I've been watching her since covid hit and honestly she inspires me so much :))

Hey Taz, just wanted say that your videos have been a constant source of inspiration for me since late 2019, when I stumbled upon your channel at the age of 14. Now, fast forward to almost 19, and I still make sure not to miss a single upload. Your positivity and productivity tips really resonate with me, and they've played a big part in shaping my outlook on life. It's funny how small the world can be sometimes - I'm actually from Malaysia, so when I saw your videos from here, it was such a surprise! If you ever find yourself back in Malaysia, it would be amazing to meet you in person and maybe grab a quick pic together. Keep doing what you do best, Taz! Your consistent dedication to creating quality content has truly made a difference in my life, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Looking forward to many more inspiring videos from you!

Thank you so much for doing this video, I’ve got a Tescos delivery coming tomorrow and I’ve just taken a meal off and added chicken and a load of different seasonings, such a good idea x

Wishing you the best of health and happiness Taz !! ❤❤❤Thank you for your recommendation on journaling ✍️ on Skill Share 🤓.

What I suggest for the chicken and meal preps is to do different meals from different cultures so I like to do like Mexican, Italian, African, etc.. so I’ll do like butter chicken, jerk chicken, chicken Alfredo, chicken jollof rice etc and that way you have a different variety then you can go on RU-vid and look up the recipes.Hopefully this helps.

Your videos are so comforting i swear😭

That chicken seasoning is used for Caribbean cooking it’s really good ❤️

thank you Taz for existing

Ohh aaaaand i would love to watch you organize anything❤

Loved this video!!!

For your lips use Aquaphor, it helps rebuild the skin :) (Kinda like Vaseline but better)

I recommend Apple cider vinegar for any stomach issues 1 table spoon mixed with half glass of water,use straw to drink it - 10/15 mins mins before breakfast or lunch :)

Its so hard not to love taz she's just so cute beautiful and adorable

Seeing a real improvement on your cooking taz I hope you are enjoying it more ❤

Hope you doing well and please take care of yourself and health 💗💗

Would love to see a kitchen organisation video. I'm trying to do the same. Also love Hurraw lip balms.

Also, you can use Dubbin (leather softener) initially, until your lips are healed, and then Blistex DCT for maintenance

My always go to marinating the chicken is the oyster sauce, soy sauce, black pepper, a bit of sugar. You should try!

Hey Taz! The chicken at 13:00 looks absolutely delicious, but pls be careful because it looks slightly undercooked and it's very dangerous to eat chicken like that. Give it a few more minutes just to be sure, better to be on the safe side.

The absolute best for dry lips is original vaseline, in blue tub, 100ml, but they are sold with different sizes. I have tried many lip balms, but they just disappear from lips. Vaseline is so good, it is on my lips even in morning when I wake.

PS. Also, I highly recommend you get yourself a non-slip rubber STRAP bottle opener; I have one that I often use (for various other things as well) for more than 35 years now

You're killing it Taz

I usually put back the chicken when I use a bag to bake so it will be juicy in the inside and crispy in the outside. I think you need a thermometer for meat. I love using it when Im not sure if the meat is coocked or not. And a tips for lips (from a post accutane girly): use vaseline.

Hi Taz, try vaseline for dry lips, it does wonders 😍 i used to have dry, flakey lips, but since using vaselin they got soooo much better

Seasonings organizing - use the same cupboard that you have now, but build like a little stairs for jars, so they are on different higth levels.That is how I did. I had similar kind of narrow shelves, but all the jars were in front of each other. So I basically added there like a 2-step little staircase, so for each shelf I have the ground level, 1st step, 2nd step of jars. And my jars are now better visible. Hope you understood what I wanted to explain here :D

hi taz! i think a lazy susan would work great for all the spices and seasonings in your cupboards! maybe one with a double tier so that it saves the space better! i've been loving your vlogs lately, i find your content so calming yet so inspiring at the same time. i can't wait for more vlogs in the future. sending lots of love! x.

hey taz! for seasoning, i highly recommend Amina's Wonder Spice - it is seasoning in a bottle! there are different options depending on the taste you want but it is definitely a brand I can vouch for :)

panthenol ointments are the best for dry lips

I hope you're okay with the whole hospital visit ❤

Life tip when reheating anything starchy (potatoes/pasta) in the microwave add a splash of water so its not sticky or goopy when heated back up

When you buy pre mixed seasoning and not sure on flavour, read the ingredients

My go to for chicken marinade is: garlic granules, paprika, mixed herbs, pepper and chicken stock powder!

Taz I had the same lip issue and it turns out I was allergic to lip balm and the medication was only covering the symptoms. It might be worthwhile to swap to plain Vaseline "petrolium jelly" for awhile because thats what worked for me. Essentially after stopping the balm my lips blew up a little then healed and I havent had any issues since with just vaseline.

Taz for chapped lips. Buy vaseline blue top, cover lips and around lips with it before u go bed and in the morning all good.

Also try the journal that was written by vex king and his wife

That HK style milk tea came out of nowhere lol. I recommend trying Cha Dong's HK milk tea for test comparison (I prefer the nostalgic blend), if you can find it at your local Asian supermarket.

I love those drinks.

Every day I am super stressed and on Sunday I sould relax and I end up very bored

If you doing know how to season chicken just look at the back of the pack for those spices and buy those. You can mix them in different combinations to make all sorts

If you do this again taz just put the chicken and seasonings straight in the bag. You're freezing it it, squeeze it around in the bag to coat the chicken... saves on the washing up 😊

love your vlogs!

hope you're doing better now

She is so pretty and fun to watch

Hope your ok? Why hospital? Take care 💖

Have you tried marinating the thighs? Mix soy sauce with honey, add some pepper and oil. The pop in the air fryer and add the marinade, cook for 10 mins at 170 then rotate it for another 10-15. It's so good. Goes really well as a salad addition or as a pasta dish

Been tryna get mine together for months (I thought It was getting better but I was just distracted)

My friend got sensed lights. Just wave and it will switch on.😂. They put on dining Room

Try 3:2:1 Black pepper chicken! 3 parts dark (thick) sweet soy sauce, 2 parts coarse black better, 1 part salt. Rub it over your chicken and leave it for 2-4 hours min. Then roast low and slow. So simple but so tasty.

Mee too❤️😌

Taz, u need to plan your meals in advance, shop out of ur fridge and pantry, then make a list of things u dont have, finally shop. That way, u dont have to blankly look at your fridge when its dinner time

Hi Taz, Try Blistex DCT (the little 7g pot) for your lips

Also suggestion for lip balm is to actually use nipple balm instead. Game changer 😅

maybe ? some spices can work against gut health and cause bloating. Spices like chili, onion, and garlic can disrupt digestion and encourage gas buildup. I use a lot of herbs for my seasoning. I do love garlic though haha

I tried a lip scrub and it made my lips incredibly dry. I tried so many lip balms but the only thing that worked for me was Vaseline, give it a try if the others don't work

Easy babe. Should try jerk seasoning with the chicken seasoning and everyday seasoning! Tin of tomatoes water and onion! But the chicken and everyday seasoning are really salty so don't add to much. I know how your feeling to lol.. life's gone to pot! And Just in auto giggle.. 😊💗 just don't ever give up! Keep going and your see light at the end of the tunnel 💖😗💌✨

*If you have Decubal (in a tube at the pharmacy where you live), you should try it for your lips.❤*

"Bye." lol 😆

I'm pretty sure piri-piri is what we call chilly peppers in Portugal and Spain 😂

please try goat kefir, so good for gut health!

Not me watching you to get my stuff actually done 😂

omg i just realised, you live in london you should DEFINITELY go to the palestinian restaurant shakeshuka it's SO GOOD and the people in there are absolutely lovely, the vibe is amazing

I have a feeling the chapped lips might be from the ginger lemon water. Ginger increases internal body heat, so consuming too much might end up drying your lips. But not 100% sure though 😅

A chicken recipe I like: -chicken (I usually use boneless breasts but you could do boneless thighs) -a whole head of garlic, minced (trust the process) -parsley to taste -pinch of cayenne pepper -olive oil (if you use chicken breasts, add more oil since breasts don’t have as much fat compared to thighs- if you use thighs you can use less) enough to coat a baking tray (maybe like 20 mL worth) (It’s flavorful enough that you don’t need salt but feel free to add salt) Instructions: Combine all ingredients in a baking tray. Bake in the oven until cooked (for boneless chicken breast: ~20-30 min at 375 F/190 C; for boneless chicken thighs: ~30-40 min at 400 F/205 C). I googled these times/temps. Just be aware it may burn because of the excess olive oil so just keep an eye on it (especially if air fired instead of baked). Also would be good to use a meat thermometer to double check the meat is cooked.

Taz ❤.

Hi for the lips the best is plain Vaseline and try to drink more water. Pure water nothing else. It's a cheap and efficient way to help your lips. Kisses from Portugal 🇵🇹💜

Get a hot water bottle. It might help ease any tummy discomfort the way it does with period cramps.

🤗🤗🤗

I find using plain Vaseline, not the lip formula, is the only thing that works for my lips. Anything else leads to a cycle of dependence on the product and they never feel that great.

💜💜💜

Extreme chapped lips usually means you are not drinking enough water. People are chronically dehydrated. They always think they are drinking more than they are so keeping track can really help. Get 3 liters in and you should see an improvement. You shouldn't need 4 because you are little, but your body will tell you.

Taz, please could you share how much rent are you paying and what’s the location. Love your apartment

hey girl, hope you find out what causes the stomach issues! also for the chapped lips, maybe you're allergic to some of the product you're using on them? love your videos xx

Can’t go wrong with some thick Original Vaseline

Do you use gluten free pasta or just standard pasta?? I can’t have standard pasta, cheese or milk. I can eat normal chocolate and cheesecake though.

You speak like "Emma Morley❤" from One day (netflix) 😊😊🎉 and dressing sense as well.s Similar

Yk what let me go out and buy ingredients so i can meal prep too

Nipple cream: this might help your lips and then you can go back to your other lip balms! Otherwise a water based lip balm is a good choice:)

Taz, try vegan chapstick that doesn’t have beeswax or fragrance. I had terrible chapped lips and realized it was my chapstick that was causing the problem 😭

tazzz just a friendly reminder i dont think you're supposed to use silverware on nonstick pans/ pots....it damages the inside real quick and they start looking kinda weird real soon :S

Hey Taz i’m a student nurse😊. Your lips could be dry cause of low calcium . I suggest getting a blood test done😊.

Taz , you didn't say why you were in hospital. Are you ok? 😢. X

Tip for lips is, stop using lips balms. Start vaseline, its the Best solution

✨✨🌼🌼

6:29 just javing to do is ok 6:39 wont help

🥰😍🥰🥰😍🥰🥰😍🥰🥰😍

do you still use your neighbours hoover hehe

What happened? Why Were you in the hospital?

😂😂😂😂

Idk if it's still relevant, but it seems like you've been dealing with bloating for a while now? If it's still an issue, it might be a good idea to talk to your GP about it instead of continuing to try all the advice on here. Not saying, it's not a good advice, but if you're still bloating, professional medical advice should be your next step. NHS website recommends to see a GP if "you've been feeling bloated for 3 weeks or more; you feel bloated regularly (more than 12 times a month); you've tried changing your diet but keep feeling bloated". This is not to scare you or anything, it's likely nothing serious anyways. Good luck in any case! :)
