Summer Reading List

I think Summer is the perfect time to read books. You can sit outside on cool mornings or crisp evenings and just read until your heart's content. In college, I was on a committee to help pick the book the incoming freshman would read the Summer before they entered college. It was a fun experience that I am glad I could take part of! Here are 3 books that I want to read this Summer.

The 5 Love Languages, Singles Edition - By: Gary Chapman

I have always wanted to read the original Five Love Languages book, but since I have found the Single's version, I will read that. I think this is a great way to learn about someone and how they convey love. Each person's love language is different, and what works for one person, might not work for another.

The 30 Life Principles will help me strengthen my relationship with God. This book is almost like a Bible Study, so I might read this one weekly. That way, I can take time to reflect on what I have read, and apply it into my life.

Now for the funny one...

Being a single, shy, female, I need all the help I can get. I know that God has someone special already planned out for me, so I am using this book as my reinforcement. Haha! I hope that by reading this book, I can gain more confidence in myself, and not be a blubbering idiot when I speak to the opposite sex. ;)

In a skillet brown your meat and sausage in a little oil. Once browned place off to the side. Combine your onions, garlic, diced tomatoes, and crushed tomatoes. *Sweat your onions down first, then add the garlic. Then your tomatoes.* Open your tomato sauces and spaghetti sauces (w...

High Five for Friday

I've done it again. #badblogger I can't wait until school is out and I have free time to write, photograph, and post my blogs! As usual, I am linking up with Lauren ! Here are my thoughts about the week! 1. It's Friday, and for that I am very grateful! 2. I am getting my hair cut tomorrow! I'm keeping my length, but I might add a few extra layers to give me more volume! I can't wait! My hair has been especially knotty when I get out of the shower. 3. I ordered new contacts and glasses from Wal-Mart Vision Center. I've had really good luck with them! 4. Did any of you catch the premier of The Night Shift on Tuesday? I think this will be a good replacement for me until Chicago Fire comes back on! 5. I am very much looking forward to sleeping in! What did you love about the week? Leave me a comment and let me know! I'd love to hear from you!
