Saturday Suggestions: Inspirations for Your Weekend

 

Good morning, friends! This week has been a whirlwind, and I haven’t had as much time as usual to scour for extra fun things. I’ve gathered a little collection here for you, and I hope you enjoy! I look forward to a new week with a little more time to read and share with you! In the meantime, I hope you find a treasure in here!

It’s no secret that I love cute food, and THIS is cute. It’s from the Skinnytaste website, and while I have no idea what the dip tastes like, the presentation is top notch. It’s like a little veggie garden in a dish! If you need a last minute dish to take to an Easter gathering tomorrow, this could be a contender! Cute and easy!

Have you been praying for something…for a while…without seeing results? It’s discouraging to wait, isn’t it? Find encouragement in Scotty Smith’s words, and keep praying, my friend! (BONUS: I also found encouragement and conviction in this post of Laura’s. It’s about Good Friday, but the message is timeless.)

It’s hard to believe that flower planting time is coming soon…because our Indiana weather has remained so cold! But it is…and if you need some inspiration, especially for a smaller patio space, check out Julie’s ideas! (BONUS: And this post from Southern Living tells you how to clean your pots before you plant in them!)

If you’ve spent much time here at all, you know that it is very important for me that the items in our home tell a story. Sometimes those stories can feel a bit cluttered in presentation, because the “things” start to take over. Sarah wrote an amazing post about how to display collected items that are meaningful to you without the clutter portion taking over. I love her ideas!

 

I am a million percent ready for spring, and I am aware this post features fall, but I love the idea of a pontoon picnic, and this one is done up right! WOW! All the pretties and the cozy feel take boat rides up a notch, don’t you think? Hey, Ryan! We should do fancy pontoon picnics this summer.

I love Becca over at Clothed in Grace and have patterned much of my capsule wardrobe after her recommendations. She has a spring 2025 capsule wardrobe collection out, and I love it just as much as I have loved previous collections. (Even if you don’t follow her exact choices, you can find some great outfit inspiration in this post!

                I haven’t had much time this week to even keep up with our house. I’m pretty sure Thursday’s laundry is still sitting in the dryer, which is not how I like to do things. I think I only cooked one verifiable meal this week, and Ryan has pulled most of the Lexi parenting duties.

                But I did notice when I made my way through a closet for spare toilet paper…that we need to clean out that closet! Purge! Reorganize! Find better ways to store the items in there. It’s on my list. I know it’s true that no one sees this space outside of the two of us, but that doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be at its best for us!
