Bucket List for February

Hi Reader,

If you missed the past months' Natural Living Bucket List, you can find it here: January Bucket List.​
Here is your seasonal Natural lifestyle inspiration dose for this month. In February, it is time to savour the last moments of winter and plan for the coming springtime.

Read Stories Under Blanket

Invite in the calm and cozy with a blanket and a good book. Whether it is a novel, a detective story, or a biography, pick your favourite. I myself have started to gaze at the summertime and am amused by different herb and tea books.

• ​Best books about tea and infusions​
• ​My favourite natural living resources​

Steep Chai Latte

Wintery spices are the thing when it is still cold outside and you want some flavour. Chai spices are perfect to accompany any tea or coffee. If you want to have a perfect bedtime sip, try our Rooibos Chai Latte to enjoy a caffeine-free Chai latte.

• ​Mix your own winter tea blends​
• ​Spiced Nordic glogg recipes to try out​
• ​Browse all hot beverage recipes​

Write a Letter with Ink

If you are not a journaler (I have my moments, too), try writing down things with a pen or, even better, a quill to romanticize the moment.

We are so hooked with all the electronic devices and handy ways to make notes on our phone that pausing with our thoughts is sometimes very needed. Ground yourself with writing even if it is only a shopping list.

Enjoy Stargazing in the Darkness

February is still a time with deep darkness, though we have started to approach spring and summer. Take a walk to an open space in the forest or next to a field to enjoy the simple twinkling stars.

The sparkling light lights up hope and gives an unexpected joy when gazing from the pitch-dark ground

Go Ice Skating

You know. Soon it is Midsummer again, and there is no ice, so seize the moment, snag your skates, and go ice skating.

If you don’t have cold enough to skate on natural ice, find your closest ice rink. Pack some dark hot chocolate in a thermos to make the moment more delicious.

Plan Your Herb Garden

Do the things your future self will thank you for and start planning your herb garden. When spring comes it comes rushing in and if you want to start growing the seedlings it is a perfect time to start thinking about what you would like to grow in your garden this year.

Any new herbs you would love to try? Add them to your list and share with me too, I am super curious! Just hit the reply button and let’s chat! 🤍

Try a New Recipe

After the new year's big dreamy moods start to vanish, shake off your dusty routines and try something different. Choose something in your shopping list that you would normally buy and try to make it yourself. Have you tried making almond butter from scratch yet? Or homemade cream cheese?

Soon you'll see that you have your own kitchen staples and you need less and less processed foods filled with colorants and additives.

• ​Homemade spreads, butters and pastes​
• ​Savoury bakes and breads​
• ​Cookies, cakes, and sweet treats​
• ​Natural Homemade Drinks​
• ​Browse all recipes​

So tell me, what goes to your bucket list this shiny February?
