Today I’m linking up for Monthly Favorites hosted by Make Me Up Mia and A Deeper Joy! It happens the first Wednesday of the month and I am joining in! You can always join us as well! I will be sharing some marriage, family and fitness resources that have been my favorites this month!
Marriage Resource
There are always times that our spouse needs encouragement. Sometimes we just don’t know what else we can do to encourage them. This blog post is a great resource that reminded me of 20 Ways to Encourage Your Spouse . I try to always remember to do number 18!
Mom Resource
Ok so I am super stoked about my Passion Planner! I preordered it, but there is such great demand it won’t be here until January. I put this as the mom resource, but really it is a resource for all areas of life. It has goal setting section, to do list, planner, journal and more! I seriously couldn’t wait to get mine so I used some of the free printables they have on their site until mine gets here. (If you decide to order one please put my email address TrueAgapeOnline@gmail.com as your referral. If I earn a free planner I will give it away here on the blog when I do a review of it since I already bought mine.)
Fitness Resource
I found the Whatevs Blog about two weeks ago and am loving it! Pam is a wife, mom and runner. I was drawn to her blog because of her sense of humor. This blog post 8 Easy Ways to Recover Faster is good to look at. Sometimes after hard workouts we check it off our list and think we are done. However, there are a few things we need to make sure we do to ensure recovery. I dread #4, but it seriously is the best thing for me! Was a life- well leg- saver during marathon training.
Food/Recipe
Ryan and I are primary healthy eaters however before Thanksgiving we saw this video about a cake that had three layers with three pies in it called the PumPecApple. We were amazed! We had to give one layer a try. And that we did! Talk about SWEET! I had to put this as my favorite food for the month because the anticipation and creation of it was a blast!
I hope some of my favorites this month can become your favorites too!
What is one of your favorites this month?
Until Next Time- Truly Love,
Cassie
Ok, I’ve never seen that PumPecApple before and it looks amazing! YUM!
The real thing is a pie in 3 layers of cake. So essentially 3 pies and 3 cakes! Pretty crazy!
A) Thanks for featuring my blog!!!
B) The Passion Planner looks AMAZING. Right now, I have a Google Cal that I need to coordinate with my husband’s schedule (this became crucial after we had our first kid), a big journal where I record my daily running plans, and data about the actual mileage and workout, and a third little week planner where I map out my writing/blogging plans. Also, my husband just printed off a handy little month sheet where I can check off each day that I meditate. The goal is to do it daily for 10 minutes a day this month, as I feel so all over the place. (See above. Ha!) How amazing would it be to have EVERYTHING consolodated!?
C) That Pie!? Looks. Amazing.
You are very welcome, Pam! I am enjoying seeing someone else go through some of the same things that I am as far as being a mommy and training. I so can not wait to get the planner! I am the same way I have stuff in several places, but I enjoy having a paper copy for a planner and for goal setting. The awesome thing is that if you share it via social media they will give you a free pdf copy of the whole thing! The pie was a bit overwhelming really. I love some sweets, but I think the pecan pie would have been fine by itself!
Hey Cassie, thanks so much for featuring 20 Ways to Encourage your Spouse. I agree #18 is super important. (And it’s worth learning for any married couples who stumble across this!)
I’m really glad you found that post helpful and decided to share it! I’ll make sure to pin this too!
Have a wonderful week!
