I mean, what are your modules? To-do lists? Calendar? Daily journals? Something unexpected? Something whimsical?

I'm asking because I'm having a hard time determining if I want a modular set up, or I just want something new because my one-book-to-rule-them-all feels boring to me. I'd like to know what you put in there to carry around, and if it stays put or comes with you always/most of the time.

I came across Peter McKinnon's youtube video here, and he just looks like he gets a genuine kick out of throwing down ideas or mementos or whatever into his notebooks. I don't have that. I have to-do lists and calendars and reminders to get more medication from the vet soon. I know how many days it's been since I cleaned the toilet bowl, or changed the bed sheets.

It feels stale.

I don't know if mine is a problem of creativity, or ignorance of other uses.

So I'm curious to know how other people use their modular systems.

Thank you for your time and insight.

Hi. I've been trying to recall an old cookbook from the 1980s or early 90s. I lost my copy along the way, but I keep thinking about it and I would love to find that book again (not my personal one, just the cookbook itself, lol). I can't recall the name of it but I remember it was big, it was hardbound, and the author (a young woman) was featured on the cover with a lot of great looking foods. It was a vegetarian cookbook but she encouraged alternatives to dairy, eggs, and sugar, and so she had recipes for things like cashew and almond milk and cream. Her recipes used honey and maple syrup for example instead of sugar, and she offered some alternatives for eggs.

One of the recipes I recall specifically was a banana carob chip cake (she encouraged carob as an alternative to chocolate as well). That cake was fantastic, lol!

I know this is a long shot, but I'm hoping maybe someone knows what I'm talking about and can help me with the title or the author's name.

Thank you for your time.

Edit: u/earthgirls22 found it. It is from Marilyn Diamond, called The American Vegetarian Cookbook from the Fit For Life kitchen.

Thank you, and thanks for all the great suggestions and recommendations.

What are y'all putting in your portfolios?
