{five favorites} Vol.18: Lego Rosaries, Bullet Journals and Introverted Hospitality


Welcome to the Five Favorites linkup!
A reminder about a new twist I’m adding to the linkup this year: At the end of each month, I’ll be giving away a prize pack to one #5Faves participant!  Here’s how it works: every time you link up a blog post, it counts as one entry.  So if you link up a post every week, you’d get four entries.  I’ll keep track throughout the month and then randomly pick a winner on April 1.


On to this week’s favorites:

{1}
Jack’s Bread: White Bread for the Bread Machine
I’ve been making this recipe in my bread machine at least three or four times a week.  It has a great crust and tastes delicious!  

{2}
An Introvert’s Guide to Having People Over
“Plus, I’m a major introvert. I’m not shy, I don’t hate people (usually) I just would rather be alone and people, any kind, drain my energy. So an hour before I have any type of people activity, I start hating myself for saying yes and wishing a disaster would happen so I would have a good excuse not to have to go.”  
I could so relate to this!

{3}

Surrender Essential Oil
You can read the whole story in my Essential Oils journal, but the short version?  This stuff is amazing.  I tend to be really skeptical when reading testimonials, but after many successful uses on my son, I’m convinced and so thankful.

Bobbi’s Bullet Journal Spring Update 
“…I’ve accepted that I have my weaknesses but I also have my talents too. I still drool over some of the artwork and hand lettering I see on IG but I don’t despair. Instead, I get inspired. I do what I know, practice what I don’t and keep moving forward. So if looking at all the pretty depresses you, stop looking.”  
She inspired me so much that I just started my own bullet journal!

{5} 

Lego Rosary from Momento Moose

The kids each got one of these rosaries in their Easter basket last year.  We love them!  They are perfect for little ones who struggle to sit still and for wiggly boys too.  We couldn’t get through our nightly decade without them!

I’d love to hear above five of your favorite things too!
