Ah, October. The day in Nashville is gray and drizzly, perfect weather for a curling up with a blanket and reading. Alas, I have other obligations, but if you find yourself in so fortunate a position, here are some links to get you started.
My brilliant friend Jen eloquently shares How to Talk to Kids About Money (especially when you don’t have any). I love her emphasis on honesty and choices.
Why Pity Is a Bad Marketing Angle is a fascinating guest post on StyleWise. I’m a fan of fair trade whether items are “survivor-made” or “artisan-made,” but this essay brings up issues I’ve never considered.
Glennon at Momastery offers a glimpse into life after a depressive episode in The Erasing. Her description of everything fading to gray is dead-on.
Finally, if you are enjoying a slow, restful day at home, you probably need to throw these Carmelized Banana and Peanut Butter Quesadillas into the mix.
Have a lovely weekend, dear readers.
