- You better be the chef this year
I just spent three hours on this
I will hire another husband if you don't do it
I feel like a cute snowman!
(lots of laughing)
♫ I'll love you forever ♫
Underneath every pregnancy outfit is a lot of skin showing
- [TOM] Babe, it's too early!
- Look at this!
- [TOM] It's really good
- I am doing this Taylor Swift fall thing
she tried to recreate a Tumblr post she made about fall
Didn't try, she did recreate a Tumblr post she made about fall
This week has actually been a really fun week
where I've just been creating all the things that I want to create
We shot the Tommy thing yesterday
I've been DIYing some Halloween costumes
and I have one more I want to make
that will be our final Halloween costume
Yeah, I'm so excited for this baby to come out
and I can make him DIY costumes
like little cute ones, I can just picture it now
and he's like, "No, mom, I want to be Spider-Man!"
And I'm like, "No, you're gonna be ramen, I made you this costume!"
Ah, I can't wait!
Don't mind my hair, I am still being Taylor Swift with her bangs
Now I've come to the part where I'm going to make
my favorite easy, healthier cookies
So all you need is a cup of oats, a ripe banana to mash
two tablespoons of any almond or nut butter
or I think you can even use coconut oil if you're allergic to nuts
a pinch of salt, a pinch of cinnamon
I'm going to add a dash of vanilla this time too
and then anything you want to add on top
that's optional so could be chocolate chips, raisins
whatever you want really
Where are you?
Oh!
Ending the day as Tom
I'm making a video to show our eating preferences and differences
how we eat and what it's like as a mixed couple
and the difficulties of deciding what we want for dinner
We've come a long way I have to say
now we compromise quite a bit
we've kind of alternate between Asian foods and Western foods
and I actually prefer Asian foods
but then I do like a good pasta, salad
like there's a few meals that I'm really into
or sometimes I'm craving something so I'll make that
so I'd say we eat Asian quite a bit but then...
I don't know, we mix it up
so he's not into like cold foods and...
I think it's mostly cold foods, he's not so into salads
I'm a salad lover so he'll eat a few cold salads for me once in a while
and then I'll eat some things that he likes
and we just try to be open-minded and try everything
and share each other's recipes, try new things
but yeah, at the beginning it took a little bit of getting used to
and now I think we've found a good balance between the two
Pick a hand, which side?
- [TOM] For dinner? - Yeah
- [TOM] Left
- which is... that side?
Ahhhaahahaha!
- [TOM] No, I want this one!
- Our very random dinner tonight
You gonna help? Thank you!
It works!
- [TOM] Babe!
[Oh my god!]
- So there's an English saying when you have a bun in the oven
it means you're pregnant
A bun is in the oven like it's cooking
So I'm the oven
You're the chef—you better be the chef this year
I just spent three hours on this
I will hire another husband if you don't do it
- [TOM] Babe...
- And Rosie's the bread!
I haven't bought much clothes since getting pregnant
to fit my new body, my new size
Mostly just basics like leggings and those stretchy bike shorts
And like bras and underwear
because that's what I really really needed
and those are items that I wanted to invest in
because they will last me after the pregnancy
as well as if I get pregnant again
But I've been trying not to buy like trendier items
that fit me during pregnancy... but!
Elsa Hosk just did a collaboration with I think it's called 4th Reckless?
This is not sponsored by the way I bought them all myself
Oh, let's do this one first, this one I'm really excited for
Look at her, she's so elegant
I don't know where I'm going in this
but I thought it would look so great with or without the bump
Feel like a cute snowman!
It's got this little slit, shows the décolleté
Whenever I wear heels, I get a lot of people commenting that
I'm pregnant, so I shouldn't wear heels
But I feel really comfortable in heels
I've been wearing heels for over 10 years for work
like there were days when I would wear them all day long
So I'm quite balanced and quite comfortable in walking in them
On days that I feel out of balance, I just...
I know my body, I trust my body, I know how to walk
And on days where I'm not so in tune or so in balance
or when I get further along, I won't wear them
But like these types that are really thick, I'm so good at them
I feel great in this!
Okay, next!
I saw this emerald green color and I was like "I have to have that"
Because it's my favorite color to wear
Gonna work pants, gonna work as a dress, gonna work with a skirt
Very versatile, love the color, the fit is great
And I also just like it with boots
Such a cute light fall look
It's really good for Hong Kong weather
This one has the ruching
which I find very flattering in a dress
Stretchy pants!
Turns out the stretchy dress is not so stretchy
And lastly, a stretchy knit skirt
I did pretty good, just one thing didn't fit me right so...
Yay, lots of new outfits, that will hopefully last me...
for almost the rest of this pregnancy? And after?
Tonight we're having a Korean style barbecue at our house
because one of Tom's friends is visiting Hong Kong
So he's gonna come over and...
the weather has gotten cooler
And by cooler, I mean like 22 to 25 degrees Celsius
So it's a good time to do some stuff on our rooftop
So we're going to go get some ingredients
in the Korean area of Hong Kong, it's in TST
They have great banchan, the side dishes
and meats and everything you need to barbecue
and then we'll sit on the roof!
(pan sizzling)
Okay, family! (claps)
- [TOM] Yes?
- To the living room!
You, in this!
(laughing)
(more laughing)
- [TOM] Babe!
- It's so cute!
(laughing)
- [TOM] Babe~ (in Cantonese) Quickly
- Okay, this hand!
(foil rustling)
Okay! We're in!
All right, we got a successful family photo this year
I just got this book sent to me from my sister Alex
And it is probably all of our favorite children's book
It was my mom's and she used to always read it to us
And then now it's all of us siblings'
And now I get to read it to my baby
And Tom's never heard it yet, so I'm gonna read this
A mother held her new baby and very slowly rocked him
back and forth, back and forth, back and forth
And while she held him she sang
♫ I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always ♫
♫ As long as I'm living my baby you'll be ♫
The baby grew, he grew and he grew and he grew
He grew until he was two years old
and he ran all around the house
♫ I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living, my baby you'll be ♫
Aw!
♫ I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living, my baby you'll be ♫
- [TOM] Are you ready?
[We have to sing this song to him]
[♫ I love you forever ♫]
♫ I like you for always, as long as I'm living, my baby you'll be! ♫
Good morning, It is November 1st!
[Michael Buble] ♫ It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas ♫
- [TOM] Babe, it's too early!
[Michael Buble] ♫ everywhere you go... ♫
(Christmas music continues)
I just squeezed myself into these pre-pregnancy bike shorts
Tonight I have an event for HYPEBAE
You may know Hypebeast
HYPEBAE is their sister company more geared towards women
Oldies, but Goldies might remember that I worked with them before
to try and recreate this Valentino look
That was a few years ago and today they've invited me
to their collaboration event that they're doing with Shake Shack
I know! Dream pregnancy job!
I get to go and eat Shake Shack food and try their new milkshake
and like take photos and it's gonna be amazing
So they sent me this coat, which is one of their items
and I need to figure out how to style it for tonight
I feel like I always just end up going for a stretchy dress
or a loose dress, it's either one or the other that usually works
so I'm praying that's gonna work this time too
so I don't have a meltdown and cry off my makeup
because I need to... I don't have time for that
Stretchy dress!
This works!
Oooh!
I'm so happy this is going so well!
I did it!
Babe, I found something that works!
(Applause)
I'm hungry again, definitely need to eat before I leave
Gotta get changed and then I gotta head over a little bit early
because I got to do some errands in the mall before I shoot
and then I need to edit the content that I shoot there
and send it to them by 12, so everything is very rushed
It's going to be a very busy day
and I need to have some fuel before I get going for the night
We're definitely going to get Shake Shack for dinner
because I'm already going to be there and of course I'm going to eat it
I'm gonna have these gorgeous...
Noooo!
These gorgeous Japanese grapes
(Taylor Swift playing...)
These are such Hong Kong flavors
Sesame, matcha, milk tea
These are new too, their garlic Parmesan chive fries?
It is midnight
I just finished all of my work for today
I had a midnight deadline to send in
all the videos I filmed today for them and photos
and I just made it, they're all posted
the photos I gotta post tomorrow morning though
So yeah, my work for today is done
I'm going to take off whatever makeup I have
left on my face now aaand go to bed
I'm just getting dressed and I would like to report
another pregnancy side effect that I did not expect
You become really good at...
making up dressing hacks on the spot and problem solving
So I want to wear this colored shirt
but there's no way I can get it done up now past the first button
so I decided to tie it in a knot at the bottom
and tuck it into my bra so that it holds in place
and now I will use the shirt as just a collar
Just covered it with this sweater
We'll wrap myself all up in here, tuck that in
And we made it, an outfit!
You really get used to adding things, elastics, tucking things in
throwing jackets on top is another good one
just making things work
Nevermind, that outfit was too hot for today but I'm wearing this
Underneath every pregnancy is a lot of skin showing
♫ It's the most wonderful time of the year! ♫
We are shopping for a Christmas tree today!
Hong Kong is sold out of all fresh Christmas trees
They sold out in October, it's really crazy here
I think it's because a lot of expats that celebrate Christmas
are staying here this year because of the quarantine rules
so... I think there's also a shortage or something?
But you basically can't buy a fresh Christmas tree anymore
and I remember last year the artificial ones sold out
by like mid- to end- November so...
Oh, this is smells so freaking good!
Oh look how huge those are
- [TOM] Your favourite
- Yeah!
(singing) ♫ It's the most wonderful time of the year! ♫
This place!
I think one more up is the trees
Wah!
Oh yeah, sorry I got distracted
- [TOM] Reminds me of the... Niagara...
- Falls?
- [TOM] on the Lake?
- Yeah, Niagara on the Lake!
Yeah!
(gasps) Look at it!
That one looks beautiful
Oh, the snowy sparkly ones, your favourite!
- [TOM] Noooo, please, nooo
[It's a disaster!]
- Whoa, that one's so big!
[(on the phone) Can you see the document on the small screen?]
- [TOM] Yeah, just have a scan
[(caller) A breakdown, item-by-item, very very into detail but...]
- Check out this car park, a road goes through it!
We're kind of near Temple Street
So we came here because it's claypot rice season!
And we're in the mood to eat and claypot rice!
It's a very popular winter food in Hong Kong
when the weather cools down a bit, these are really popular
because they're cooked on charcoal so the rice is quite fluffy
And then it absorbs the sauce
but then the bottom becomes quite crispy
And then you can add various toppings on top
but the popular one for winter is this Chinese sausage
called... laap chuen?
- [TOM] Laap cheung
- Laap cheung
This can?
- [TOM] Yeah, I always had this when I was a kid
- Oh yeah?
Now your kid will drink it!
- [TOM] Oh, (in Cantonese) water spinach!
[Ooh, smells so good!]
[Legit, babe!]
[Garlic!]
[Waaah!]
- Waaahhh!
Mine's a bunch of mushrooms
- [TOM] Want mine?
- Woooww
It's so hot, you can feel the heat
- [TOM] It's really good
[The rice is dry]
[They have the crispy bottom]
- Mmhmm?
- [TOM] and with the soy sauce, it's so yummy
[and also the dry sausage will]
[add some sauce and flavour into the rice]
[So it all mixes together]
- Wahhh!
- [TOM] So good!
[You need to have this kind of dry crispy bottom]
