Article: Make sure your butter is firm and cold before you start using it. This will give the oats, sugars, and flour something solid to bind onto while they cook, leading to big, delicious crumble topping. It can help to cut the butter into 1/2" cubes ahead of time and place in the freezer while you measure everything else out. The amount of butter in your recipe is up to you. If you want a very rich topping, you can add as many as 8–9 tablespoons (120–130 ml), though you should add 1–2 tablespoons (14.8–29.6 ml) more flour and brown sugar if you do. Use a whisk to lightly mix the dry ingredients, getting rid of any clumps and making sure everything is evenly distributed. Cutting in the butter means you physically mash and cut the butter when surrounded by the flour mixture. This allows the flour to coat as much of the butter as possible, which leads to a crispy, delicious topping. You can cut the butter three ways:   Food Processor: Pulse the mixture until there are still 1/4" clumps and none of the butter is uncoated with flour.  Pastry Blender: These D-shaped tools have 4-5 wires at the end which effectively cut the butter up into thin slices. Cut until you have a gravel-like consistency.  Fingers: Freeze the whole mixture for 2-3 minutes before working, then quickly mash the butter into the flour, aiming for a crumbly, gravel-like mixture. Remember that the colder the butter is when it hits the oven, the better your topping will be. Set the topping in a cool place, like the refrigerator, while you prepare the apples.

Article: Work out what things stand in the way of you being more disciplined at the moment. They may be character flaws, an inability to articulate what you want out of life or a preference for losing yourself in stimulants or addictions. Perhaps you conform too much without thinking for yourself; this can make it easy to follow someone else's ideas of discipline without working out discipline that works for you and fulfills your own real needs. Whatever the reason, try to determine it first.  Why do you feel you are not disciplined enough now? What are the factors standing in the way of you being more disciplined? As well as assessing your own limitations, consider how others in your life impact you. Are you pleasing others too much to spend time on yourself? Are you always giving in to other people's wants and letting yours go by the wayside? This is especially important if you spend a lot of time just pleasing others. It will be a lot more difficult to stay disciplined if you feel you need others to form boundaries for you or to tell you how to act and think or what to do. What voices in your head tell you that you're unworthy or a failure? These are negative thoughts that have no basis and need to be tackled in order to introduce self care and discipline in your life. You may need counseling or it could be sufficient for you to work through your negative thoughts using mindfulness or cognitive behavioral techniques.

Analyze yourself first. Seek to convince yourself that you want to learn discipline for the purpose of believing in yourself.
Article: If you want a romantic outfit perfect for a summer lunch date, choose a flowy blouse, white skinny jeans, and tan-colored wedge heels or loafers. Keep your accessories simple, like a pretty tennis bracelet or a pendant on a thin chain. Chiffon, jersey, seersucker, cotton, and linen are all perfect fabrics for staying cool on a hot day. If you're looking for a feminine look that's perfect for a night on the town, try wearing a pair of white trousers with a dressy halter top. Then, you can add a long vest or a blazer to cover up in case you get cool.  For instance, you  might wear a gold sequinned halter with a long white duster and strappy gold heels for a glam girl's night. You could also wear a black tank top, black blazer, and black heels with your white pants for a chic, bold look. If you're going to a weekend get-together where you need to dress up, like having brunch with friends, try wearing a brightly-colored blouse or button-down with a pair of straight-legged white pants. Then, slip on a pair of neutral loafers or mules for an effortlessly cool outfit you can wear anywhere.  For example, you could wear a salmon-colored button-down over a white crew-neck tee with white trousers and a pair of dark brown boat shoes or loafers. Try an off-the-shoulder chambray top, white skinny jeans, and tan mules for an on-trend take on this look. If you have a pair of work-appropriate white pants, you can wear a light-colored button-down and a structured blazer to create an outfit that's put-together and professional. Complete the look with tasteful accessories and dress shoes. Switch to a casual button-down, a lacy camisole, or a graphic tee if you're going for drinks after work. For a winter-white take on the monochrome look, start with a pair of cozy white wool pants, then add a white sweater or another weather-appropriate white top. Then, you can add a white scarf, shoes, and accessories for a look that will look as stylish as it is warm. To add a little contrast, accessorize with gold jewelry, or add pops of a bold color like red or yellow.
