I am always looking for easier, cheaper, cleaner (get the point) ways to do things. Since I have entered the blogsphere, I have been blown away by how many awesome blogs are out there for this stuff, (and they are even better than Martha Stewart).
Because it is so easy for me to get carried away looking at each one and clicking on links to the next one, i thought I would share with you a new blog series called Friday’s Five. This will be a short list of my most recent favorite sites, so you can enjoy them with me.
1. Simple Mom - this site motivates me to be a better Mom/homemaker. It takes everything I see as impossible and makes it all do-able. Also, The *giveaways* are fantastic. Like this week they are doing a series on Cloth Diapers 101 and they are giving away lots of them! I am seriously considering trying out cloth diapers on my boys.
2. My Blessed Life - My friend Lora has a beautiful, “homely” blog with all kinds of recipes, meal planning, and just a lot of Godly motherly insite.
3. Frugal Coupon Living - If you like free stuff (Burt’s Bees, Candy Bars, Victoria Secret etc.) she knows where it’s all at!
4. Simple Kids - I haven’t even had a chance to check out this place, but I know it’s awesome because Simple Mom is awesome.
5. Dinner with Julie - I stumbled on this blog somewhere? The only thing I know is that I’m going to make this, Sunken Chocolate Cake with Blackberry Raspberry Fool, and I will let you know how it goes.
This concludes today’s episode of Friday’s Fantastic Five. Tune in every other Friday for the DL on my favorites sites.
Do you have any sites (they don’t have to be blogs) that are in your Fantastic Five? Please share!
One of my fav.’s is westarkswap.com. It is run by Mavis Domer, who is a local homeschooling mom. She has to be THE coupon, money saving queen…hands down. She writes articles on money saving tips, and passes along sites for freebies and savings. There is also a link where you can join the online group through yahoo groups. Folks post things for sale or free, or things they want to buy. It is much easier than having a yard sale, and I always check there if I am looking for something that I can buy used. Plus it is all local, so, its always within driving distance.
Thanks Amy. I’m going to have to check that out!
Thanks so much for linking~that’ so sweet! I love Simple Mom, too, and I’m looking forward to checking out these other sites.
