Friday Five: Featuring 5 Favorites from Around The Web

Since there are a lot of websites, bloggers, videos, images, giveaways, eBooks, and authors from around the web that inspire me, I'd love to share a few of them with you. So I got to thinking... why not five a week? And why not Fridays?

To start off I'm going to share five random things that have recently caught my attention:

1. Homeschool Giveaways and Freebies:

Homeschool Giveaways is another homeschool website owned by the family who runs:
Hearts at Home Curriculum  and CurriculumShare.com.

Here's what they say:

After launching two homeschool related websites, it was determined that what homeschoolers like best is freebies and giveaways! The purpose of Homeschool Giveaways is to introduce homeschoolers to various curricula they may not be familiar with or have been unable to purchase, through giveaways. 

I'm not a homeschooling mom anymore :'( but I know that many of my readers are, and so this is definitely one that I wanted to share with you!!

2. Ungrind: Churning out Encouragement for Women

Click on the Image to Go to Their Site
First of all, the girl drinking this cup of coffee looks exactly like my BFF, which is totally heart-warming to me. I love seeing that image. But more importantly I love the encouragement that this website offers!

Here's a bit from their welcome page:

Let’s face it, as 20- and 30-something women, sometimes the daily grind of life leaves us discouraged. We desire to effectively serve God, our families, and our communities, but we often feel like we aren’t doing enough. Well enough. We find ourselves in desperate need of a word in due season...


When you read the articles here, may you be encouraged to press on and daily seek, as Colossians 1:10 says, “to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to Him, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of Him.”


So pull up a chair, grab a cup of coffee, and take a moment to Ungrind.

I've been enjoying their articles and interviews, but what I'm especially excited about is that they will be hosting a book club in the near future, featuring  Reshaping it All!! 


3. Love this image from Pinterest!

I happened upon this image the other day when I was browsing Pinterest, and was taken in by the beauty. I absolutely love every thing about it!!


4. Ruth Schwenke Can Sing!

My friend Ruth from The Better Mom put a video on YouTube the other day. I was blown away by her talent! Ruth is the one on the left.

Mary from facebook said, "That just blew my spirit right to His throne room!" I agree! 


5. Grandma Ruth's Lasagna! 


I'm always, ALWAYS on the lookout for a great lasagna recipe, so when I came across this one from Janelle of Comfy in the Kitchen, I knew that I definitely want to try it soon!

Janelle lives in Ohio, and I live in Canada so it was an incredible surprise to me when I received her cooking in the mail one day! She baked my family a batch of her cookies and no surprise to me--they were awesome. How sweet is that?!

Janelle is at Women Living Well today, sharing one of her favorite family recipes… Grandma Ruth’s Lasagna! Janelle says that it tastes great for left overs and freezes well too! Yum!!


And that's my "Friday Five" this week. Hope you liked it!!

You are loved by an almighty God,

Darlene
