Pin Ups and Link Love: My Favourite Things This Week

I love this list from Danielle Laporte on the 28 best things she ever did for her life and business.

Speaking of Danielles that I love, Danielle Dowling’s Monday Motivations are so awesome. This week’s was “I trust myself to figure it out.” I haven’t closed the tab all week, I feel like this is really resonating with me.

9 habits that turn effective people into highly efficient people. I love the bit about creating systems, in particular. I need to create more systems in my life!

And for a bit of fuzzy cute- you should totally check out this slideshow of HRH Queen Elizabeth II and her korgi pups through the decades– Photo #12 is my fave. The woman loves her dogs!!

Pin Ups and Link Love: Summer Cheesecake | knittedbliss.com

Last weekend I made this blueberry cheesecake, and it was utterly amazing. It’s a ‘summer cheesecake’ sort of recipe, meaning that it’s no-bake and perfect to tinker with for seasonal berries. The body is a mix of cream cheese and whipping cream, so it’s not heavy at all like a traditional cheesecake. I used some blueberry pie filling and fresh blueberries for the topping, and the whole thing was epic. Pinterest link is here, and the original link is here.

My kind of meal! Pinterest link is here, and the original post is here.

I love beautiful notebooks, but the price tag is sometimes a bit much for me.
