The Saturday Six

 


Today's post is inspired by fun things I found on Pinterest this week. Totally random, but they caught my eye!


One.

This one is not as much about the outfits themselves as it is about the challenge. (The post is also a few years old, so keep that in mind.) The blogger chose outfits from Pinterest and recreated them via thrifted finds. I think I'd have to go back into Fort Wayne to find thrift stores that would offer enough selection to try this, but I love the idea of the challenge!! It would be SO FUN to see how much money I could save on some of the outfit ideas I have! 

Two.

This past week marked the start of school back in our home county, and this coming week marks the start of school in our new home area. Since many of our friends have school-age kids, we've been seeing all the back-to-school pictures and enjoying all the stories. With the return to school (or work, for us) there is the need for lunch ideas!! I loved this cheat sheet for mixing and matching your own Bento Box meal. I love it that these don't require a ton of heating or prep work and are still filling and tasty! 

Three.

Ahhhh the English language and its many impossibilities in pronunciation. I found this poem and learned that indeed, there were a small handful of words I did not know. It also confirmed that the only rule is...there are no rules! Also - this is impossible to read quickly (out loud). 

Four.

Waiting can be so unbelievably hard. I would venture to guess that all of us are waiting on at least one thing in some are of life. If that's you, I want to share this beautiful little article I stumbled across this week. There are ways to be purposeful and faith-filled in the waiting! I know I needed to hear these words, so maybe you do, too! 

Five.

This shirt (which comes in multiple colors) is simple and sweet. I like it. 

Six.

Our camping life this summer has been halted by a mixture of tending the yard, high gas prices, and busy weekends. But we aren't done camping just because we had one rough season! I found these ideas to store away for later: foods to take camping that don't need refrigeration!

Loved the article and really needed it. I especially loved the comment, "In the waiting, there is life to be lived." It reminds me of the Jeremy Camp song, "Keep Me In the Moment." - Michele
