“How fun!” I find myself exclaiming this many times throughout the week. Here are just a few things that touched me or made me smile:
What I’m reading:
Our small group has begun reading Taste, My New Life Without Food by Gordon Meier. Pastor Meier was our pastor when we attended his church in Ohio. He is an amazing man of God that is bearing up under an unusual condition. You may request a free copy of that book by clicking the link.
A blog post that touched me:
Edie at Life in Grace wrote a post titled On Giftedness and Calling (Five Clues to Your Calling). Even if you are already secure in your calling, you may appreciate this extra bit of encouragement. I certainly did!
What we are eating next week:
- Saturday Crockpot 15-bean soup, corn bread
- Sunday Cabbage rolls, mashed potatoes (I’ve never made cabbage rolls before. Wish me luck!)
- Monday Whole roast chicken, mashed potatoes, cooked carrots (from raw)
- Tuesday Homemade chicken noodle soup
- Wednesday Pizza
- Thursday Spaghetti, broccoli (frozen)
- Friday Paleo crockpot chili
Baking this weekend: Oatmeal cake with coconut icing.
Spread a little Light this week! Share this above meme on your favorite social media site, or email it to a friend. Click the image to see it at full size.
And, I’m starting something new this week. How Fun! will now also include a link-up party, called “Whatever is Lovely ~ Link Up and Let Your Light Shine” Link-up anything that is lovely, excellent, or praiseworthy. Share a wonderful piece of writing, a DIY project, a recipe, or anything else that strikes your fancy!
Thanks so much for participating! I appreciate links back to Beauty Observed. Either a text link in your post, or feel free to use my button. Please visit some of the other links and pass them along to your friends. Let’s spread loveliness everywhere!

Have a great weekend! Remember Philippians 4:8. “whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.”
Hey friend, how fun that you are doing a link up! I’ve been wanting to write more “fun” posts, and I know that I can link up anything, but I am hoping to begin participating next week with my own style of fun. In the mean time I will share! Blessings!
Thank you, Barbie!!!!! I know what ever you share will be insightful!

Thanks for the opportunity to link up with you! Since I am a relatively new blogger, it is nice to have access to this type marketing, as well as getting to see some other great blogger’s work..
I’m so glad you shared, Dawn! Blog parties are fun! I’m found quite a few new blogs by reading others who link-up.
I was brought here by the lovely Barbie and so glad she pointed me in your direction. I love these kinds of posts and a great idea for a link up. I look forward to exploring and getting to know you better.
Blessings,
Beth
Welcome, Beth! I’m so glad you visited and linked-up. I really appreciate it! I will visit your blog soon.
The link up is a great idea! I linked my blog, and now I’ll have to blog more often. Dawn, I will look at yours ~ I must find something that works that doesn’t make me feel like a pretzel all tied up!
Just stopping in to say hello from Blogelina. What a beautiful site you have! Thanks so much for posting the link from life{in}grace……I’ll be chewing on that one for a while.
Thanks so much for stopping by! I am learning so much from the Blogelina class.
I’m glad you liked the link to Life in Grace. I often find myself “chewing on” her writing, as well!
Thanks for hosting the link up! Your site is beautiful!
Thank you, Michelle! I’m so glad you linked-up.
Thank you for your comment on my blog…I decided to link that same post up here as well. I’ll add your blog to my reader and look forward to getting to know you better.
Oh..you asked about my camera. I use a Sony a77 and love it!
Jill,
Thanks SO MUCH for linking up! I appreciate it and look forward to seeing more of your photography in the future.
Blessings,
