Homemade - Granola

Happy first of 12 days of blogmas!!! I am going to be posting for the next 12 days up to Christmas again, like last year! It's still my most favorite time of the year and I have so so many ideas! 

I'm so exited to finally be crashing them christmas markets and eating all the foods again. And what better thing to start with than cinnamon home made granola. Who doesn't love porridge - at any tome really, so now you can top it off with your own crunch. 

I soo hope there's gonna be snow this year so I can take some pretty pretty pictures. 

So let's get started.

What you need: (What I used cuz u can throw anything you want in there)

two cups of oats

pecan nuts

almonds

raisins

one cup of sunflower seeds

one tablespoon of butter

cranberries (dried)

two teaspoons of cinnamon

honey

Step 1

Firstly pop your oven to 180c. Then take your nuts and chop them into pieces. You can also put them in the blender but I like mine to be quite chunky so I just used a knife.

Step 2

Take your oats, raisins, seeds and cranberries and put them in a bowl. Then mix until everything is combined.

Step 3

Add the cinnamon and drizzle some honey on top. MIx everything together so you have a nice gooey mixture.

Step 4

Take the butter and spread it on your baking tray so the granola won't stuck to it when you take it out.

Step 5

Spread the mixture on the baking tray and put it in the oven for 10-15, depends on how goldy brown you like it.

Step 6

Take it out and enjoy with yogurt, fruit, porridge, milk......

Breakfast

So this week I was home alone and so I had the house all to myself and could rearrange and experiment a little. 
I love being home alone. I can turn up the music while damcing around the house in my underwear lol. I also feel a lot happier which might seem weird but I can just be me. I don't really know. Well anyways,yesterday evening I poured a glass of wine, lit some candles, turned up my music and took a nice relaxing rain shower. Then I watched some movies whilst chilling in my underwear without having to worry about someone coming in. Oh and I also locked the door twice!
This morning I got up at 7! put on my yoga pants and did some yoga in the living room. My dogs joined in with the downward facing dog as well. After half an hour I moved the happy vibes into the kitchen with the garden door wide open. I listened to the Spotify playlist Early Bird while making some Pancakes.Things like these make me really happy. 

WHAT YOU NEED
(4 pancakes)
 2 eggs
 2 tbs sugar
 1 pinch salt
 200 ml milk
 1 tsp bakingpowder 
  oil

Clothes

I went shopping in Hanover recently and my first stop was Primark to buy some socks. But, well, that didnt't turn out as planned.. I did still buy socks though! But my mistake was that I had a little look around and latest when I reached the 2nd floor it was over. There was band merch on sale! And because most of the shirts that I bought were about 3 bucks I bought ''some''.

Summer Playlist

As you can probably tell by now I'm a big fan of music. Any music really and that's why I'M also a big fan of spotify and got me the premium version. I think 10 bucks a month is a fair prize because you can listen to 30,000,000 (!!!) songs on there and create playlists. I use spotify for almost exactly 2 years now. How I can tell? Well I'm a loser so I create a new playlist every month... The first one I ever creaed is called ''Summer 2014'' and the most recent one ''Summer 2016''. I'm just very dedicated. But I love how you can see the differences in my music taste and how it changed over the years!

2014 was loads of chart music: Prayer in C, All of me and Boom Clap...



2015 was the time we were roadtripping the US so there are a couple of sing-alongs and chilled car music in there: The nosebleed section, Fly away, The mixed tape...




And now I'm currently working on the perfect mix of punk rock and summer feeling: No future, Rock and roll all nite and electric love...

Dreams

I love having to-do lists or plans. I have an entire notebook which I started writing about 3 years ago. I love looking back and see what my plans and dreams were when I was 14 vs. now. They defenitely have changed even if it's just a little, because now the time where I can actually do all that stuff is coming closer and closer. 

For example: I finish school in May 2017 which I'm really exited about but also kinda sad. Anyway, me and a friend are then going to go live in England for a couple of months. Our dream destination would be Brighton because we wanna live near the sea but in the end anything is fine. Out plan is to work in a little cafe our something and live in a tinyapartment in central Brighton so we can fully experience the british lifestyle. 

I would then go back to Germany in October to start Uni.

Also in my notebook I have a checklist which I wrote when I was 15, with things I wanna do. There's stuff like get matching outfits or go brunching or a kiss in the rain, on there, stuff that's pretty doable. 

But then I have other lists which I wrote when I was 16/17 with things like smile more, save money, go backpacking or learn to eat which chopsticks (which I can now).

I also wanna go on a roadtrip sooo bad. I just get some old VW t2 and some tents and head up to NOrway. That is probably one of my biggest dreams ever.
