Saturday Surfing {favorite spots from around the web}


Saturdays are the perfect time for a little aimless web-wandering and here are few of my recent reads I'd like to recommend to you.

The Wild Surrender of Motherhood by Carrie Ann Moss @Annapurna Living
This new website launched this week and is absolutely lovely. Remember Carrie Ann Moss from the Matrix movies? Well she is now the founder and inspiration behind this blog.  Here is an excerpt of her vision for annapurnaliving.com :

 FROM CARRIE-ANNE ...
“To see womanhood through eyes of grace.” 
My desire is to live in a world where nourishment is valued. I believe a nourished family will lead to a nourished world. I believe life is beautiful and that our divine purpose in this world is to nurture the earth by respecting it and being grateful for what it provides us.
My wish is to inspire others to create beautiful, honest and satisfying lives.


My Other Ex: Women's True Stories of Leaving and Losing Friends @A Design So Vast
Unfortunately, over the past few years I have found that the challenges of female friendships continue into adulthood. This article helped me realize I am not alone in these experiences.


Gratitude Week 2014 @michellegd.com
Starts Sunday, November 10. Are you in?


Chapter One free download from The Best Yes book  by Lysa TerKeurst
I just finished reading this book with a book club. It was so good. Even if you know how to make the right decisions for your family and your personal time, reading a book that affirms your right to do-so is so validating.


Creamy Chicken Lasagna Recipe from Runner's World Magazine
I've never made this recipe but it got my wheels turning for an after-Thanksgiving meal idea to use leftover turkey. Thanksgiving is just three weeks away! Time to plan the menu and the fun.


Happy surfing!

      Hi Bobbi! Thanks for the kind comments and not to worry - there hasn't been much new around here for a while. Just going with the flow and for now it seems I have time for a little blogging again. Great to have you stop by.

Locally Grown {stuffed green peppers recipe}

  Last weekend we took the whole family to a nearby produce stand.  We were craving something that tasted fresh from the garden and since I don't have my own garden, we found this place.     The fields were full of fall-colored flowered.  Can't wait for those cooler days to come.         But for now, we are reveling in the height of summer sunshine and produce.       It's easy to go overboard here and buy much more than you can use in the next few days.  I don't even like okra but they look so inviting in those cute blue crates.     These tomatoes inspired a caprese salad for lunch: tomato slices cut into quarters, hunks of fresh mozzarella, snipped basil leaves, salt, pepper and drizzles of olive oil and red wine vinegar.       These strawberries wound up being dunked in Silky Chocolate Fondue .       Every girl dreams of doing her shopping with one of these adorable woven b...

Petals :: 52 Photos Project

Where I live the Bradford Pears have bloomed and blown and the Cherry Blossoms are in full blossom.  Even though that means our allergy season is now officially underway, I cannot help opening our windows every morning in hopes of hearing the birds singing to greet the day.  Springtime has conveniently coincided with my personal recovery process from knee surgery.  As I am slowly re-gaining mobility on crutches it seems an added encouragement that the weather is also improving and the trees are welcoming my return with their flowers. What a treat it would be to be able to put down my crutches in time for Easter Sunday and walk again on my own! (I am doubtful but one can hope.) Sharing with 52 Photos Project :: Petals
