Kitchen Inspiration

by gidget gratitude

It’s T-minus-less-than-two-weeks until we move to the house around the corner! I feel like getting motivated to pack is that much harder this time with two littles underfoot, and knowing that we are moving walking distance from our current place makes me just want to carry things over instead of packing them {I know how [...]

Intentional Community

by gidget faith

I’ve been thinking a lot about community lately. I was super encouraged by Megan from Sorta Crunchy‘s call to 40 Days of Community (I came in a few days late but am starting to join in it now), and it came at the perfect time for me. Our church is very community based. We have [...]

Randomness.

by gidget gratitude

My blog thoughts have been bouncing around in my brain lately, but I’ve been having a hard time finding a chance to actually sit down and write (other than what I’ve been working on for Simple Organic). So, first, a few bloggy things. I started a little place to share some little bits of inspiration [...]

Practical Gratitude

by gidget gratitude

I’m learning to use the manual settings on my camera, now that I have a new lens to play with. Sometimes, I forget that I last used the camera inside, at night, and then when I go to use it out in the bright sunlight, it’s set totally wrong for that moment. Just like changing [...]

A Little Gratitude on a Warm, Sunny Day

by gidget faith

Okay, maybe a lot of gratitude. We are having amazing weather this week. Some people I know are probably cursing the weather man and wanting some chilly weather that they can cuddle up in, but not us. We are relishing in the sun and the warmth. We had a cool summer so this little escape from [...]

gratitude… thanksgiving and big news edition

by gidget gratitude

I had good reason for neglecting this blog last week… our annual Thanksgiving camping trip! We spent the whole week with family and friends, at the beautiful San Elijo State Beach. It was a wonderful vacation, despite the California-version-of-cold (too cold for me!) and being only about 10 minutes from home. We spent yesterday recovering [...]

Rejoice…
