I bought mine in lime green. Apparently choosing this color means that I A. Like moss; B. Am a snake; or C. Dislike golf. I am definitely not a snake. And I do like golf (mini-golf counts, yes?). So I guess that means I like moss. Well…okay.

Welcome to the Keel’s Simple Diary, Taschen’s entertaining twist on the everyday journal. Sold in lime green, brown, royal blue, red, orange, and yellow, the $15 diary is like journaling meets Mad Libs for adults. Each page has a multiple choice question on how your day was (A. A freakshow; B. A no-show; or C. A showdown), asks out of the ordinary questions including, “Something wicked you find awkwardly appealing?”; and contains interesting quotes such as, “Imagination is the foundation of reality.”

Invented by Philipp Keel — an artist, part-time L.A. resident and creator of the All About Us books I see every time I peruse Urban Outfitters’, uh, literary section — the Simple Diary was the author’s response to “having too much information and not enough meaning, and needing to remember what made him smile.” Keel felt the need for a diary that took users away from the technology and information overload of today’s society and prompted big thoughts like, what makes you happy and what would you say to the world (road rage incidents excepted), as well as some smaller stuff such as, are you at peace with your hair? (Present company says no…firm no.)

Admittedly, keeping a journal can be a difficult task to maintain — everyday reality can be uneventful, free time is hard to come by and, let’s be honest, it isn’t always easy to find something to write about. But the Keel’s Simple Diary makes it easy to write when you want and where you want—whether in bed or laying on a beach. It’s a great method for keeping track of your days and, if you’re lucky, learning some things about yourself along the way. — Rakhee Bhatt
