A friend shared this great post about the habits of the creative person. I enjoyed reading it immensely. I hope you enjoy it also!

Joanne at Days and Thoughts shared this wonderful video about a teacher with a true servant’s heart. It’s well worth the time to watch it!

Baking this weekend: I never did get around to making those cinnamon rolls from a couple of weeks ago. I think I’ll try my hand at them this week.
Ed had a bit of good-natured fun this week making this meme. I hope it makes you smile. It gave me a bit of a laugh.

You and your husband just make me smile. Love the 7 habits. ~~smiling~~ Too cute. But again, I think what makes me smile must is how the two of you do this together. How he is a part of what you are doing here. Just super, super cool. Have a wonderful weekend, Elizabeth. You have helped mine get off to a good start. <3
Beth,
I am so glad we make you smile! We are having a lot of fun working together and I think that is starting to show 🙂 I am very blessed that he is so supportive!
I hope you had a wonderful weekend and that you will have a great week!
Blessings,
Elizabeth

Sharita,
I am glad that you find them fun! 🙂 Since I’m really the only woman blogger Ed knows, I must resemble that meme. lol

Thanks for giving readers such a great site to link to. I can’t believe you have been doing this for 16 weeks already!
I am glad to see the weekly meals have returned this week 🙂 I have been meaning to do a cheesy potato soup…and it snowed here last night so I guess winter is sticking around to give me a chance to do more soups.
Dawn,
I can’t believe it’s been 16 weeks, either!
I thought of you when I was writing out my menu. <3 Did you make the soup yet?
Happy Monday!
Fondly,
Elizabeth
