The Big White Farmhouse

intentional living, little by little

August 1, 2012

{link list} 8.1.12 Edition

Hello friends!  Popping in to share my latest discoveries via the www.  I knew I couldn’t stay away for too long! 🙂

1. This post, A Miracle Inside the Aurora Shooting: One Victim’s Story, is just amazing. It’s definitely worth the read.

2. Last week, I purchased this printable from katygirl Designs for the new nursery.  Isn’t it sweet?  One of my favorite verses and bonus point! All proceeds go to Hope 4 Sudan.


3. Another really interesting article: 1940s Housewife showed how to tame high grocery prices.  A thought provoking quote from her now-grown daughter: “
I am distressed by the things now, living to get things as opposed to living to enjoy life…”

4. New breakfast recipes to add to the to-try list: Gluten-Free Baked Oatmeal Casserole and Peanut Butter Banana Oat Breakfast Cookies.  

5. How cute is this little packaging idea using cupcake wrappers?


6. I love the texture and the colors of this original painting from Angela Cox.  Abstract and just so cool!


7. A new book I cannot wait to read: 
The Reading Promise: My Father and the Books We Shared.

8. Food for thought provided by Mother Teresa: “You and I, we are the Church, no? We have to share with our people. Suffering today is because people are hoarding, not giving, not sharing. Jesus made it very clear. Whatever you do to the least of my brethren, you do it to me.  Give a glass of water, you give it to me. Receive a little child, you receive me.”
