Journal With Me - Decorating my Happy Planner Creative Journal with Baked Goods! - June 2024

[@shannonwilhelm5031]

I don’t think you say things too much, it’s just you being you and that’s what I like about your channel ❤

[@GloriaSkipper]

I agree ME. You should hear some of the others out there 😂. Don’t be so hard on yourself and I’m glad you did this spread because I’ve been wanting to do a coffee spread!🫶🏼

[@Lady0asis]

Sourdough bread is life.

[@dunn9ette]

Agreed, the baguettes in France were on another level. I felt that way about all of the pastries there! Thanks for the ‘Bread spread’, it’s really cute. I don’t notice “umms” and “I don’t knows” until you bring them up. 😂🤣

[@ashleybustillo2694]

Early June is still technically Spring so I think redating your May spread works perfectly.

[@cherylcoomer8970]

You crack me up, Mary Ellen! You are such a joy to watch and so talented!❤️

[@PlanningwithBumble]

Thank you 🥰

[@thebudgetingbaker2023]

Ok I think I have you all beat!! I am a bakery manager. I see all of that everyday all day!! And let's top it off I have given up eating sugar to help with inflamation!! It's torture. Thanks MaryEllen I love it!!

[@creativcat]

There is always a place for a doggie door, we actually cut a hole in the wall of our home for a cat door because we wanted the cats to go out through a closet to the side of the house to a kennel that had their potty box outside. No potty boxes in the house, yay! They have all kinds of dog doors now days that attach to sliders and can be put in a door etc….check your options…or if you have to continue getting up to let her in and out consider it exercise! Hahahaha. Anyway, just be you and don’t worry about people saying things about the way you talk…you are you…besides they are not perfect, I’m sure, no one is after all. Hugs, and congrats on being a grandma, so exciting! You will be a wonderful nana!

[@Bex_InMT]

Our neighbors have catio's (cat patio's) built off their windows. It's a cool concept for their animals.

[@barnesdebbie7227]

I love out the box spreads! It look great. 🍞🥐🥖🫓🥯🧇😊

[@Tarheelbex]

I love this spread so much! I have a stack of plaid paper similar to yours and plenty of bread/baked goods stickers. Just never thought to use them together! Now I'm going to create a Bread Spread for next week! Thanks for always inspiring me to try new things! Also, I love it when you say "Here in planner land." I say that too. My favorite bread is soft sourdough rolls. Yum! 🍞🥐🥖🧈

[@susancaldwell9804]

This would make such a cute recipe book set up. ❤ Just keep being you.

[@maureenpalardy4912]

My favorite bread is Sourdough... I love your Bread Spread. It's fun and different. I like the positioning. Enjoy it! Hugs❤

[@lisaheffley7134]

Cute spread! You inspire me! I also do WW and love that we can plan those cupcakes, breads or other goodies into our days with no shame. I find all the things you say - the uns, the likes the waits … endearing and human! Thank you for being you and now I’d really love a piece of freshly baked sourdough bread!

[@celesteransom4636]

Wow. The monologue at the top of the video was meant for me. I have been stressing out about my latest spread because I don’t love it and I was being so hard on myself, but you are so right! It means nothing lol. So thankful for you. ❤now I’ll watch the rest of the video lol

[@launaford4185]

I love the really dark bread they serve at the Outback Steakhouse.

[@tiredofit4761]

Interesting spread, I like it! The plaid paper is adorable. My favorite bread is sourdough in a grilled cheese

[@SharonSteiner-ec5yx]

I love that you used neutrals, like brown!! Fresh bakery bread is mouth watering!! And I love your nails!! The darker color looks good on you!!!

[@Bex_InMT]

My auntie makes bread and rolls and those, fresh and warm, with butter-sign me up!

[@KerriMartin-rg7ch]

Love your "bread spread"! My favorite is marble rye.....toasted! 😋

[@kimp6399]

This spread is so cute!! I didn’t think I would use this PET tape but now I need it 😂 I always so many great ideas for my journal from your videos. TFS

[@imjaime100]

This spread is so freakin' cute! I love how it turned out!

[@deladyakarobin4777]

I know I have OCD slightly on some things and seeing things layered over the decorative paper to me at first was like, if you move that over to the right or to the left a little more, was slightly unsettling.. It's not you.. it's just me and yet my journal pages are definitely not straight and drive me bananas.. I just try to tell myself.. it's ok, just turn the page... lol In the end I love love LOVE this spread.. It looks like if you were to pick up the pages, everything would just slide off... I tend to duplicate what you do, drawing or decorating pages.. It has really helped me a lot to LET GO, it's OK, I have learned sooooo much from you and I've grown so much .. Thank you for that.. can't wait til your next video.

[@removehandle-hidden]

Very cute 😊nicely done Mary Ellen.

[@dandreadiop3350]

So Beautiful & Fun! My favorite bread is Toasted Rye Bread! 🍞

[@sarah_not_perfect_life]

Croissants are the best !!! But yes, Baguette in France are a close one too !! Cute spread ! 🥐🥖

[@bubblepuffs]

I love this! You always come up with such great and unique ideas! 🤩 Also, I honestly haven't thought of you repeating any words. And I wouldn't mind it even if I had noticed. It just makes you human 😊

[@dianemckill5708]

Love it Maryellen, it's something different and a breath of fresh air. Well done 👍

[@CurateTheJourney]

San Francisco Sourdough. It's like a religious experience for me! Every time we're home (Bay Area) we pick up a loaf or two... they used to have a Boudin stand in the Oakland Airport, so convenient!

[@launaford4185]

So very cute!

[@katgoodwin65]

we all have things we say all the time its what make each or us unique so don't stress about it just be you because that's why I choose to watch you

[@bookworm102]

As far as I am concerned you can say what you like I never judge you ever and I think you are lovely you carry on doing you because we all think you are amazing.🥰 It doesn't bother me what word you say even if it's 1000 times your video's are a joy. 🥰😁

[@tinaauten3185]

Girl, I can’t even choose a favorite bakery treat! I love the baguettes that Panera gives with their soups. I love hot, out of the oven croissants! I love a wonderfully soft bagel. I always say, “ I love bread but bread doesn’t love me.” lol!

[@bubblepuffs]

Oh and to answer your questions, my favorite baked goods is freshly baked hot cinnamon rolls. Favorite bread is garlic bread 😍

[@Notable2Nikki]

Currently on a health journey and I am eating the Food for Life 7 Sprouted Grain bread. It is basically the same as Ezekiel bread with super clean ingredients. It tastes fine as toast or a sandwich. In regular life though, I love bread... warm, soft yeast rolls, garlic bread, focaccia, pretzel bread, fresh sourdough in San Francisco... I could go on but I won't!

[@_Ms.L_]

Sourdough,yum, but I love all bread. Love this spread!

[@BrittanyLinger]

I love this spread!! I really like watching your creative journal spreads! My favorite bread is Italian. Never had it in Italy though and probably never will.

[@christielou]

Savory: Cheddar Bay Biscuits Sweet: Currently German Chocolate Cake or Lemon Pound Cake

[@Laura-ib1qv]

My favorite bread is definitely an everything bagel lol. Cute spread! 31:49

[@dr.janaleewagner1177]

Very cute.❤❤❤

[@liliana1lfr]

Sourdough! Not only fresh from the oven, but also Rudi's sourdough! It's the best overall for your GI system. Has prebiotics.

[@too_tired_for_this]

I’ve been using more “fall-like” themes, too! Lots of coffee and book themes and other warm colors. 🍂🍁🍃 Bright summer colors can be way too much for me.

[@katejohnson2474]

French Baguette is my favourite too... When you said "we can do what we want in Planner Land..." it made me smile because I call my craft room "Planner World"... love your channel and your brilliant creative ideas ×××

[@teresascafasci7027]

Thanks Maryellen! ❤😊 I needed to hear this today. I always criticize myself when not always using my planners/journals..

[@seekinghappy]

This spread is so beautiful! I love the colors. I love the vibe. I want to copy it. My favorite bread is cornbread! PS I’m from Texas.

[@berry186]

Hands down, Olive 🫒 Garden 🏡 bread with Alfredo sauce.

[@michellepowell9341]

I never noticed you saying like, wait, or I don't know -- I was just hanging out and hearing you chat with me as you worked your planner. Teaching me cool tricks and being fun company! I love your Bread Spread! Love the washi photos mixed with the drawings on the stickers - very cute!! Favorite bread... anything with yeast! And blueberry muffins! Though I'm doing no sugar and no soy right now, and I've cut all seed oils, too. "Vegetable" oil, canola oil, and soybean oil seem to be in EVERYthing. Sourdough seems to be the only store bought bread I can find that fits. I found delicious chips cooked in avocado oil and I'm in heaven! Wait! I'm off topic! Sorry! LOL Your speech pattern is completely normal to me! :)

[@marylynmiller5158]

Love this...irreverant and fresh! Maybe you need to do this kind of stuff for a while till you get your mojo back??? I love bread...the denser and heartier the better...I am an avocado toast fan too! (On sourdough please)

[@liedjesuitmijnrugzak9845]

Love this aesthetic Mary-Ellen! 🧡

[@erinmenozzi3652]

Very cute - and you are right - very tempting. Favorite bread? Too hard to say but maybe a good cinnamon roll. 😃

[@ediamonds366]

welrejoined 6 months ago.Love the stickers too

[@dr.janaleewagner1177]

Artisan bread with sundried tomatoes and olives.

[@PlanningwithPeggy]

My cat freaks out with aluminum foil and change. He gets all jittery like. I love sourdough and a nice soft wheat. Thank you for sharing. 💜

[@seekinghappy]

Yay, new video! I’m so happy.

[@annetteswanson8461]

My cat is always jumping on my desk when I’m working on things so I keep Q tips on my desk and threaten to clean her ears! LOL! But it works

[@PlanningwithBumble]

😂

[@deladyakarobin4777]

My favorite bread is banana nut bread.

[@glendarobinson1175]

I’m loving this spread! I too love warm breads and butter. If you do say certain words too much I guess I don’t notice, I am paying too much attention on your spreads. 😊

[@maggiegonzalez5959]

Girl! I’m on WW too and this would just be too cruel a joke to do to myself 🤣 😂

[@PlanningwithBumble]

🤣🤣🤣

[@rongrongdevoeillustration]

🍞🥐🥯🥖 give me all the bread! Hope you get to eat some bread soon🤣

[@PlanningwithBumble]

Maybe soon! 😅

[@michelemartens1118]

Ficelle, when I visite my sister in Paris where she lives every morning rain or shine I go buy my ficelle( half size of a baguette) and have fresh coffee with fresh hot ficelle with butter. Only in France I csn do that.

[@saarakirves]

Mary Ellen, I always love your videos but I would like to give you a tip about dogs. If you would play with Bumble games where she would need to use her nose, it would make her much more tired. Dogs don’t get tired of running after a ball for example, they can do that for hours without getting tired. But to use their nose, to sniff to find a treat, tires them completely. That is why the drug searching dogs at the customs only work for 15 minutes on one go! You could check “how to activate your dog” or “mental simulation for dogs”, for tips. Thank you for a lovely video, once again. Have a nice day! -Saara

[@PlanningwithBumble]

Yes, that’s why we go on long walks where I let her sniff to her heart’s content! 😊

[@anjieh1104]

We must be related I loooovvvve homemade bread, cookies and butter

[@craftchatgo3987]

Where do you get the pretty rolls of stickers

[@PlanningwithBumble]

Links are always in description 🙂

[@RitaStevenson-j7h]

I think you say “I don’t know” so much is because you seek approval. You may think what you are doing seems odd to people and you feel the need to try to explain. Who cares what we think I love your spreads and I try to emulate your spread more than you might think we do. So stop saying I don’t know and say yes that’s right and go on. Your spreads are wonderful.

[@danaberi51]

I'm on WW too! I've lost 7.7# in 3 wks!

[@adventurewithus223]

Don't worry about the words you use often. They are your language and part of who you are. If you stop using them you will lose some of who you are.

[@PlanningwithBumble]

Good cause I can’t stop anyway lol

[@SarahGross27]

French loaf

[@jackiepena1541]

🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@ericar007]

I think it’s ridiculous that people feel like they can tell you what words you can say and what words you can’t 😮! It’s a good thing I’m not a content creator 😂

[@darlademma8793]

I think your saying "I don't know" is also a form of a vocalized pause.

[@cathywright4133]

I agree. My favorite bread is any bread that is warm!☺️

[@PlanningwithBumble]

Yeah probably. Still can’t stop 😅

[@too_tired_for_this]

I’ve been using more “fall-like” themes, too! Lots of coffee and book themes and other warm colors. 🍂🍁🍃 Bright summer colors can be way too much for me.
