Dear Calendar ✎ᝰ
Hello good people,
I’m writing to you from a house surrounded by snow and the most delicious smell of condensed milk is coming into my studio from the kitchen: Tomas is cooking it from scratch…. For this, today’s message won’t be very long, I must seize the day with my loved one.
No clouds in the sky… Maybe we can see auroras tonight
For those of us who are starting the year with big goals and lists…
A calendar is of much importance!
But I dare you to do one backwards…
‘‘Your calendar is the most honest autobiography you’ll ever write. Your calendar reveals the truth and each block is a decision about what matters.’’
Upon reading this quote I gave up on making a calendar with my plans which is an amazing way of procrastinating all day…
Instead, I decided to have a new approach: I just started with my day and after each task I wrote what I just did.
The first day was a disaster! I kid you not, I spent one hour looking at my own reflection fixing my hair ∘ ∘ ∘ ( °ヮ° ) ?
The second day:
‘‘Dear calendar, today I spend one hour drawing’’
Since my online fixation is way out of rails I needed something to put me off the phone.
I created a new youtube channel under my name to upload only real-time drawing sessions with no editing, cuts, music, etc.
If you try to do this Calendar Journal, I wish you the best of luck!
My goals for 2025 are…
Learn to play the piano
Be off the line and off the phone
I will mostly use my computer to write one blog post each month and post real-time drawing videos on Youtube.

Here is a very simple recipe that I made
this morning as a thank you note for being here
It took 15 min!
Makes for a great
offering to friends
Blueberry Honey Jam
500gr of blueberries
1 generous soup spoon of good Honey
Pinch of salt
‧₊˚ ⋅ 𓐐 ‧₊˚ ⋅
Set the timer to 15 minutes and put all ingredients together in a pan in low heat.
Stir occasionally : )
After 15 minutes take the pan out of the heat and close for another 10 minutes.
Put your jam in a sterilized bottle and store it or eat it right away with bread and tea ݁₊ ⊹ .ᐟ
Left over fireworks are exploding in the night sky, and Oh!
Look at the time!
I must go back to reality now
