Hi foodies, as some of you know, lately I’ve been struggling with YouTube — my recent videos are barely getting any views, which is super frustrating considering how much time, love, and work I put into each one. I’m not sure why this is happening, but every like, comment, and share really makes a huge difference right now. Let’s see if we can get this video out to more people! ❤
