The Saturday Six

One.

This is not a new post, but I happened upon it this week on Pinterest, and I found it interesting to read. Behind the scenes in shooting photos for a cookbook. I'm glad I wasn't on cleanup duty! Eek!

Two.

You guys! I am so excited about this. My friend Brent Vernon (you know him...I've told you about him before) has a new product coming out this Christmas. For the last several years, he's done daily Christmas countdown sketches throughout the month of December, and then he auctions off the whole set and donates the proceeds to charity. Well this year, he's going to offer completed versions of some of the sketches for sale! The first one (of I don't know how many) is up for sale now, and you can see it here. He's crazy talented, and I'm so excited he's doing this. New artwork in Shafferland this year!

Three.

Found this for when Ryan and I get our RV to live in full time. (No, I haven't given up on that dream.) Home base, baby!!

Four.

Have a sports lover in your life? Need a gift idea? This is pretty adorable. A mug for hot chocolate that lets marshmallows become a game. Looks like you can find versions for basketball, baseball, soccer, and hockey.

Five.

How in the world this got to be item number FIVE on this list is beyond me, but it's definitely my favorite! Don't forget that you get an EXTRA HOUR OF SLEEP tomorrow in honor of the time change! (Some of you who have been reading here for years might remember that I used to have a countdown banner on the blog for this time change. I kind of miss it!) So enjoy your sleep!!

It's no secret that Christmas is my favorite season! I found this article with some practical (and realistic) tips for slowing down enough to enjoy the holidays. If you are a frequent offender of exceeding the Christmas speed limit, take a look!
