Saturday Suggestions

Happy Saturday, friends! Here's hoping your day is grand in every way. I have a few finds for your weekend - hope one or two inspires you in some way!

ONE. 

I wanted to share this one with Ryan, but I thought maybe it might help some of the rest of you too, so I’ll include it here. We have a little stack of firewood for our fire pit, and we haven’t landed on the best way/place to store it while it awaits its moment to keep us warm. I found this post with several ideas for storage. I like the triangle ones the best, but there are several options! And yes, I’m aware that a plain old woodpile also works, but cute storage is just so…well…cute!

TWO. 

We have gotten out of the habit of making our own lattes at home with the regularity that we used to. As I perused recipes (so we can replenish our syrup supply) I ran across this toffee almond one that just sounds FANTASTIC. I may have to start my own little at-home coffee shop for real!

THREE. 

Years ago, when I was working in Financial Aid, we had a student worker named Jodi. I loved working with her. We have remained friends ever since and she was recently a guest on a podcast! I listened and thought her message was important to share – so here you go! I knew I was going to love the whole interview when she said, “Efficiency is my love language.” I already knew that about her, but to hear it stated outright was pretty amazing.

FOUR.

I stumbled upon this site on Pinterest this week, and the writer does monthly bucket list idea posts! While I WISH I had time in my every day to do all her suggestions, I don’t. But she does have some fun ideas to jump start a date night according to the season! Here is the link to the one for June, but if you scroll through her archives, you can find other months, too!

FIVE.

In honor of Father’s Day tomorrow, I thought I’d share this sweet collection of posts made by dads about their kiddos. Happy Father’s Day to all of you who fill a father’s role in some child’s life. Keep up the meaningful (even when it doesn’t feel like it) work you do!

SIX. 

If I have heard of 101 things in 1001 days, it’s been a while and had faded off my radar. But I really enjoyed reading this recap from someone who attempted it, and it was fun to read her specific goals! You know I love some goals and bucket lists and plans, so this is really fun! Have you done any of the things on her 101 list? I have done 35, which surprised me!

Enjoy, friends! Happy Saturday!
