July Setup

-
We are getting closer to being up-to-date folks (okay I won't say that word again I promise)!

The next month I want to show you is July. I was quite busy in that month and even though it isn't as much my style, I just went with a more simplistic black and white theme.

July setup


Cover spread July
Spread 1: Cover page
Since I knew I wanted something more simple I also decided to do a simple quote page (the quote had something to do with that too). For the cover page I got inspired by a spread I saw on Pinterest and changed the circular style into a rectangle. All in all I am quite happy with how this one turned out.

Calendar layout

Calendar and mood tracker
Spread 2: Monthly calendar and mood tracker
When I did my calendar at first I just wanted to leave very plain. But then I thought that I didn't want to add a habit tracker that month since I didn't really use it the previous month and was very busy. And then I wouldn't need to have two pages for my mood tracker only. So instead I decided to just do my mood tracker on my monthly calendar. The way I filled it out was to do the line for my mood and then to alternate in between black and white spaces as I went. But you can see that I didn't even have the time to fill it all out. It's sad because I really enjoyed the look of it but when things don't benefit you, you should just leave them.

Daily logs

To-Do lists
Weekly one: July 1 - 23
I also decided to not do proper weeklies and instead do more of a daily columns style. All in all it was okay but I didn't really use my bujo that much. But I enjoyed the look of the black boxes with my white, not-at-all working gelly roll.

Amsterdam memories
Weekly two: July 24 - 28
The last spread I am going to show you are the last days of July and a memory keeping page. I actually only did those dailies until the 26th and then just stopped because I had no need to do the other days. On the right page I want to paste in some pictures of my Amsterdam weekend trip. Hopefully I will do so soon because I am not good at all in remembering to do things like that.

That was it for my July setup. There weren't many pages at all but I hope you did enjoy it however.

Until very soon. (side note: so far I have been keeping up my plan to do 2 posts a week - yeay!) Ok, bye!

Welcome welcome! Since we are all spending time at home, we might as well cook some nice food, don't we? This is my all-time favourite lasagna recipe. It has been on my German blog for a while and I have now taken the time to translate it. My mum and I created this recipe by trying out different lasagnas and combining all the things we liked about them. In the end I will also tell you what you could change in the recipe to spice it up and/or replace things you don't like. Servings: 8                Cooks in approx. 1 hour Ingredients: 4 small eggplants 800g minced meat (pork and beef) 300g goat cream cheese dried lasagne sheets 600g gratin cheese (Gouda or Emmental) olive oil sea salt or coarse salt

Book review: We were liars - E. Lockhart

Happy new year everyone! It's been a while since I last posted something here and I'm sorry for that but I wasn't really in the mood to write anything. However, the new year gave me loads of motivation to regularly post something (but I can't and won't promise it, we will see). I hope you had a great start into the new year and are full of joy for this new decade. One of my resolutions for this year is to read more and especially more on a regular basis (instead of using my phone or watching Netflix & co.). That is kind of the reason why I am starting this year with a book recommendation for you. The book I want to introduce you is called "We were liars" and was written in 2014 by the author E. Lockhart. It is an award-winning young adult novel and many critics consider it as a classic for teenagers to read. I bought it on a trip to London a long time ago when I wasn't even able to really read and understand it but I just wanted to buy a book a...

Homemade Granola

 Welcome to my baking lesson everybody! Today I will show you how to make your very own granola. For those of you who don't know what that is: granola is a caramelized, very crispy cereal. I make it once in a while as a present or as a special treat for myself (since it isn't super healthy). Another great reason to try to make your own is that you get to decide what ingredients it will have (and if that's important to you also the quality and origin of the ingredients). So let's start, shall we? This is the basic recipe (the specific ingredients for this one I will share later on): 300g multigrain flakes 200g nuts, kernels or seeds 100g extras of your choice (e.g. coconut chips or cornflakes) 60g olive oil 150g honey, maple syrup or agave syrup 1 pinch salt spices (e.g. cinnamon, vanilla, etc.) optional: 300g dried fruits, chocolate drops, etc. Instruction: Chop the nuts, kernels and seeds into eatable pieces. Mix the flakes with the seeds, the kernels, the nuts, the ex...
