Here are a few of my favorite blogs, websites, or articles I have found interesting recently. Please feel free to leave some of your favorite links in our comments section!
Listography --A website just for lists. Seriously.
Catalog Living --This tongue-in-cheek blog cracks me up all the time, and cures me of most of my catalog lust
Cute2Try Hairdos, Cute Girls Hairstyles, Princess Hairstyles --All three of these websites have cute, inventive hairstyles for girls with lots of instructions and pictures
Swagbucks --I use this site to do most of my searching on the internet. Searching earns me "Swagbucks" which I can redeem for various prizes, my favorite being Amazon gift cards. Check it out--it is easy to sign up, and why not earn a few points for something you are already doing?
Money Saving Mom --I find this site to be incredibly helpful not only with the nuts and bolts of saving money (i.e., posts about sales, free offers, etc), but also insightful into the heart of living frugally for the glory of God and the ability to serve and bless others
Southern Savers --a great website for matching coupon savings to grocery/drugstore deals. I especially love the ability to print a list of the items I specifically need
Sew, Mama, Sew --this is my favorite website for fabric, tutorials, and forums about all things sewing! I love the fabric selection they have, and their tutorials and ideas are always inspiring (you should check out their Handmade Holidays from the past two years--TONS of great projects)
Little Birdie Secrets --this crafty blog is not sewing specific, which I like for those times I need to get out of a sewing rut. Their ideas are often quick and fun, and work especially well for gifts
GirlTalk --by far one of the most convicting blogs/websites that I have seen, Carolyn Mahaney and her three married daughters regularly address issues that Christian women face, pointing them to Christ, Scripture and gospel without fail
20/20 Conference at SEBTS --shameless plug: I worked on the very first 20/20 conference at SEBTS, so I have a special place in my heart for this conference. Though officially it is the 20/20 Collegiate Conference, the topics and themes speak to people of all ages. This past year I ATTENDED portions of the conference for the first time ever (having worked most of them in the past), and I greatly enjoyed it. You should try to attend, or at least listen to some of the past sessions :-)
Last, but not least, two articles that I resonate with:
Editorial on dying --My husband's best friend wrote this recent editorial about Christians and dying, and I found it to be thought-provoking and inspiring. In today's world, we do not want to think about dying, but as Christians we have no reason to fear death! Instead, perhaps we should look at mourning in a different way
Adults reading young adult fiction --Hunter Baker writes about why adults are reading young adult fiction (which just gives validity to my fascination with Harry Potter :-)
