Blog Lovin'

So it's been a while since I last posted about my latest blog crushes
But I think you'll agree the amazing Bloggers featured here today are well worth the wait.
Here's just a few spaces I'm lovin' lately....



Lara blogs about faith, family, adoption, her passion for orphan care, Uganda, and life on an Arizona farm. She's unabashedly open & honest, incredibly witty, and lives her life to reflect Jesus.
Did I mention she designs jewelry too? The proceeds go toward her mission trips to Africa. LOVE her!
After spending 7 years of my life living & serving in Nigeria, I have a  very special place in my heart for anyone who loves that place as much as I do.  Lara & her husband live & breathe Africa.
What sums her up for me though is this quote "I hope I get to the end of my life absolutely exhausted." Amen.



Lauren's Latest


Lauren is a Foodie after my own heart! She blogs about her life as a Mom & Wife, but mostly her original recipes, dishes she feeds her family using "everyday ingredients - extraordinary food."
I stumbled onto her site via Pinterest & have been following ever since.
I've made several of her dishes and not one has been anything less than delectable!
My faves: her Whole Wheat Pumpkin Waffles & Sweet Potato Gnocchi with Italian Sausage Alfredo



Positively Splendid
Another great Blogger I found via Pinterest. Amy is a Wife, Mom & Super Crafter.
Her blog is the ultimate destination in DIY inspiration, homemaking & yummy recipes.
Truly though, her space is a creative person's haven. I could spend days perusing her tutorials page!
But right now I'm obsessed with her bright and polka dot tiered terracotta planters.



Grown Up Shoes

Oh how I love Ana Louisa's blog! It's just so dreamy, creative, pretty & fun.
Ana Louisa posts regularly about design, style, travel, recipes, & her love of her hometown of Austin, Texas.
This week I'm currently loving her post about the handbags of the girls of Mad Men.
But I really love her Let's Get Away travel features & her lovely spotlights on local Austin treasures.




Sugar and Charm
Any blog that talks about delectable desserts & fabulous entertaining has me eternally captivated.
Eden's space is all about a happy lifestyle, hostessing, party planning, terrific recipes, and charming crafts.
I'm in love with her gorgeous floral centerpiece tutorials. Eden always keeps it simple & budget friendly.
Her Hosting 101 section is stocked full of amazing entertaining tips & creative ideas.
But it's her sweet recipes I love most, like Red Velvet Cheesecake & Homemade Snickers Bars. Yum!
